CHARACTER INTRO: ZHANPENG
Tumblr media
They/them. Token human character. Approximate English pronunciation of their name is "john-PUNG".
Their basic lore in the slimeguy storyline: 
After the main events of the first Slime Rancher, Beatrix decides it's time to move on from the ranch. Motivated partially by a mysterious letter, mostly by wanderlust, she plans to go explore Rainbow Archipelago. Before she leaves, she decides to pass on her old ranch to someone new like Hobson did, and she decides on hosting a raffle so plenty of people can have an opportunity to enter for a chance to buy the property and ticket to The Range. Of course, she doesn't really want someone who isn't passionate to nab the property, so she does have people send in applications (typed out and/or recorded in video messages) to determine who is eligible.
Zhanpeng wins. They say a lot of sappy and cheesy things in the application, but the main thing on their mind is making money. Due to the dangers of ranching on the Range, companies like 7Zee jump at the chance to get fresh meat on the planet, and this is a perfect opportunity to get their name on the list.
They quickly find out that ranching is a LOT harder than expected. Zhanpeng kind of went into getting off-world with the mentality that snagging the property would be the hardest part; once all the paperwork was done and they got there, they'd be able to figure all of the actual ranching logistics out on the way. Easy. Their cockiness ended up backfiring on them, though; Zhanpeng had zero experience in farming, and despite aiming for a career in the production of animal—er… slime—products, they knew jack shit about nature and biology. Due to being a horrible gardener and chicken farmer (all their chickens eventually escaped), they couldn't really even begin to ranch slimes. 
Staunchly refusing to give up, they'd instead just go out and explore the planet every day, picking up plants and chickens along the way to feed any slimes they came across. This work was waaay more grueling and inefficient than they'd expected. Zhanpeng quickly found out that slimes aren't the cuddly critters they were made out to be on TV; many of them were extremely dangerous, and very, very, hungry. Aw, man! They actually had to break out the Slimepedia and do some reading. Apparently you DO have to know your shit before you try to do anything. It was a bit of a reality check for them.
After a couple of kinda terrifying days of free-for-all, Zhanpeng suddenly got a call on the Range Exchange machine on the ranch. Honestly, they didn't really know who they were expecting, but it definitely wasn't MOCHI MILES, CEO of only the MOST successful interstellar tech company in the galaxy.
Mochi was immediately pretty disappointed upon seeing them. Her entire reason for calling was that Beatrix's ranch had suddenly come online again. In this timeline, Beatrix had disappeared from her ranch to Rainbow Island without much warning, and, during her voyage and first few weeks exploring, she had been too busy to contact her other rancher friends. Mochi, being Mochi, was concerned about her crush business partner and wanted to know what happened to her. Since Zhanpeng was currently her only link to Beatrix, she decided it'd be a good idea to keep them in her back pocket if Beatrix ever contacted Zhanpeng again.
Mochi offered them a job—the same one she'd offered Beatrix not so long ago, mostly because it was very mundane, very easily, and had no chance of putting her empire at risk—feeding quicksilver slimes.
Zhanpeng eagerly accepted, relieved to finally have a predictable source of income (and also somewhat afraid that she would smite them if they said no). Running around with quicksilver slimes gave them a chance to get a little knowledge about slime behavior through osmosis, and occasionally Mochi would exasperatedly point them toward ranching resources if they seemed to be having too much trouble on their exploration adventures (they got—and still do get—injured quite a lot). 
Some time passed—during which Zhanpeng finally brought slimes to their ranch, though not in any way they expected—before Mochi suddenly received intel on where Beatrix might be: a new, undiscovered archipelago of islands on the Far, Far Range. Unable to up-and-leave her business, Mochi (toooootally legally) sent Zhanpeng to the island, with a boat and the tools for a makeshift ranch setup, with the ultimatum that she would fire them if they said no.
Currently, they are exploring Rainbow Archipelago with their slime pals, trying very hard not to lose their job.

Miscellaneous design stuff. Lucille would be a fancy drow in bg3 who's hunting the archdevil who stole her child* (*she actually lost her kid in a wager and she's mad about it). the archdevil in question is nadine and her power comes from stolen divinity and she acts as a warlock patron
also brief thoughts of Hisa with silver hair but I like them with dark hair more

There’s something extremely meta and 3rd-wall– breaking about the fact that so many people seem to consider Thomas Sharpe an innocent Woobie who did nothing wrong, or at least who is worthy of redemption where Lucille is not
Because. That’s his role in the Bluebeard plot, the Poor Lost Soul that YOU, lonely woman, might save with your love. That’s what he spends all his time convincing people that he is. He has a whole speech to Edith where he’s covertly trying to warn her, to pull aside the curtain and reveal what he truly is. It can be taken as a speech to the audience, too, and yet
So many people still fall for it

I know leverage is the crime show about criminals so they probably aren't worried about things like being properly certified to drive a vehicle, but I like the idea that Hardison has his CDL

I think canyouseethewords, Stephanies blog, being taken over by habit is rather symbolic of how easily female characters are overshadowed by their own media.

The Evil Eye. A burden Sister Lucille must grow to bear, the eye grants it's user visions of their death destined to come true. It is a power one must learn to accept as easy as life. For if mastered?
Means death itself holds no sway over you.
