Making you look at him. Rotating in my head.

Anyways, here's Flint post-Overworld with some of his kiddos because he deserves the happiness :) Idk if he'd have any biological kids tbh, but it doesn't really matter because he loves them all the same! A couple of things about him are nebulous to me, family being one of them.

Left piglet would be closer to warped forest coloration for youngins, and the right more for the wastes. It varies pretty wildly by bastion and colony, as a lot of piglins tend to mingle between bastions in their horde, but generally piglets are striped and colored like that of their home terrain. The baby colors typically wear off when they get a bit older, somewhere around 6-8 years old, when they're growing in their adult teeth and tusks. I feel like baby piglins would be 'piglets' and then turn to 'piglings' before they mature into full-grown piglins (like our difference between newborn & child).

A few laps around the bastion tend to help get the little ones ready for bed (at least, if they're not too rowdy).

The nether isn’t an inviting place for anyone, let alone little piglets. Patching up is just part of the job.

I have brainrot about piglins, but it’s mostly one in specific. This is him— Flintbairn of Bastion Glowstone 23b… my homeboy, my sweet cheese, my good time boy. You know. Anyways, he started as an NPC for an in-game scavenger hunt I made with a bunch of redstone on a server a while back, and he evolved from there.

Flint got trapped in the overworld one day when his portal exploded behind him, leaving him with a heck of a scar and a pretty nasty case of advanced zombification. Luckily, he’s been able to stave it off for the most part with his knowledge of potions, but his supplies can only last so long. He’s hoping to find either a solid cure or to find a way back home before he completely loses himself— only a matter of time.

He’s kind of in a liminal space for me, always in the overworld and not quite zombified because I never got to finish his questline before the server shut down, alas. He’s pretty sweet and is a caretaker for the young piglets back home, but he helps around where needed.

Anyways. This guy I rotate in my head all the time. Constantly. Look at him. Ask me about him, but be warned, I will not shut up about him

Today I think I shall gush about my piglin naming system! Inspired by Technoblade :)

Piglin names typically come in three parts, being (attribute)(thing you’re known for)(bastion name). Bastion names are normally used if you’re interacting with anyone outside of your bastion or horde, because goodness knows how many piglins out there are named Gold…

First names are usually a personality trait or something alluding to one, not always literal. Techno was named as such because he’s cool and calculating on the outside, like technology. Flint (my oc, for a second example) was named as such because he’s hardy and dependable.

Second names are given later on in life (some piglins choose not to use them, or never earn them)— these can be a lot of things! Usually it’s a profession, but it can also be a notable event in your life; it’s something people would recognize you for. Techno got the name “blade” because of his prowess with blades in farming and on the battlefield, and Flint got “bairn” for being good with those who are born (animals, but children especially).

Some piglins never end up getting second names, and some don’t associate with a bastion. Those who are outcast or choose to move elsewhere may take up a different name. They also morph with time— if someone becomes more well-known for something after they’d already received a second name, they’d change it to match!

This is the short version, amazingly enough. More under the cut if you’re interested in it! You’ll get a glimpse into how my mind works, lol

First names aren’t given until piglings start to grow their tusks in, around which time their personality shows a lot more. As a baby, they’re given a placeholder name by their parents or caretakers, which can be anything! Typically, it’s from a pool of names that that bastion or horde holds dear, so litters a couple years apart may end up having the same childhood names.

I actually have a list of some names that’d work in one way or another, though not all of them may fit together smoothly. You can likely shift stuff around and add or subtract letters so it rolls off your tongue easier. I mean, technically this is in english, so it’d likely work in the piglin’s spoken language, but hey!

Birth names: Typically some physically defining trait, notable action, or person/idol/role model, given to the piglet shortly after birth. Examples include steve/alex/jean, mud, snow, speckle, leather, squeal, swift, trot, crinkle, crimson, trip/skip, hopper

First names: Typically an object or item, or field of study or important advancement in relation to the piglin’s temperament around 8-12 years of age. Overworld examples are used less frequently, but tend to be given to piglets with exceptional or odd temperaments. Examples include Techno(logy), Flint, Fence, Ash, Ember, Clay, Obsidian (Obi-), Cinder, Gold, Flame, Blaze, Rose, Water, Rust, Cobblestone (Cobble-), Honey

Second names: Typically a thing or descriptor/verb (usually in past tense), given to the piglin after finding something they excel at or become known for. This is usually a word that pertains to multiple aspects of them (as with Techno, ‘blade’ refers to his expertise with bladed items both in battle and cultivation). Examples include Blade, Bairn (born), Char, Forge, Lock, Arrow, Shield, Bloom, Ferrous/Aurous, Brew, Heal, Tame, Craft, Knife, Smith, Saw, Sword, String, Saddle, Spirit, Breath, Grown, Wrought, Torn, Write, Built, Read, Smelt, Bud, Scar

Literally just copy pasted from my notes app so apologies if stuff is repeated or doesn’t make sense! If you guys have piglin name ideas or oc ideas regarding this I will give you a kiss on the forehead, I adore it.

The more I talk about it the more it sounds like how warrior cats name themselves. I know nothing about warrior cats, unfortunately, so I can’t say it holds true, but… I feel like this may be a common thing I worldbuilding. Regardless, I just think it’s neat!

If you are insane about piglins as I am or still relatively sane with a little interest in them, do interact! I’d love to bounce ideas off each other ^^! Also if you got this far I love you and tuck you in all cozy like a snug bug!! Don’t forget to eat and drink today, you deserve it! Okay that’s all for right now! :D

Have a little sketch! I hope to do an animation at some point, so excuse the arrow :P

So I have several references for Mora, including commissioned art and such. Let me just, neatly plop this here;

So another fun side fact, she is seven feet in height; and Tiny is the same at the shoulder. So he doubles as a mount as well. But these days he's carrying children around on their wild imaginative adventures against whatever evils their minds can think of.

This is also by Quilbug, it was the first commission piece I asked of both Mora and Tami, and it kick started our amazing friendship journey, which was over two years ago now, sheesh. When art block hits, piglins are the go too, you know?

You're more than welcome to doodle any of them, I would love to see how you go about drawing her!

SDFGVHSDFBJKDSNFLDS!!!!!!!!!! (positive) That top ref was done by INSYNDIAR??? I've been looking up to them in terms of piglin art for like! A long time!! You have all the good connections, lol.

i was gonna try to color it but the motivation is escaping me. anyways. they'd be TALL!!! most recent mc skin for scale. I feel like Mora would give good hugs because of all that fur, but I doubt she'd hand them out all that often.

I love love love love love!!!! Heart eyes!! I get excited! Quil's got really good art, I may have to commission them 👀

Thank you for sharing feel free to share more I just had to draw a little bit. I'd apologize for being obsessed about piglins, but this is my piglin obsession blog, so... no apologies, I guess, lol.

[glowstone23b]

Does flint got any secret talents or anything like that? What's his personality like? And how tall is he/big (just saying but how I see it piglins can be 9 - 10 feet tall, fyi Ren is 8 feet tall and so is Francis, not bragging I think🤨)

Not my drawing but looking at you like this^^

Secret talents 🤔 he likes to carve things on his free time, like beads or little gold trinkets for people. He knows how to brew a couple of potions, but he’s still learning on that front. He also does does his best with patching people up/stitching wounds etc. and similarly probably patches clothes and whatnot for his kids.

He’s nice! He tries his best in general :) kind of gruff/formal in his way of speaking, but he’s kind of paternal to everyone he meets. Kind, but definitely stern if you get yourself hurt. A little protective as well, so it’s likely his biggest fault (like… he’d get killed trying to protect people, most likely) He’s got a bit of RBF so he looks more intimidating than he actually is, given the scar and probably a limp later on and all.

Flint’s roughly 6’5” or so— I initially had him pegged at around 7’, but I wanted to be around shoulder height if my player was standing next to him (and I’m 5’3”, so somewhere in that range seems to work). I’d love to sit on a piglin’s shoulders cause I could reach anything! King of the world, haha. He’s kinda built more like a power lifter than anything, also? A little chubby but in a muscle kinda way if that makes any sense? I have a couple references of him if you need cause I can’t remember if I’ve posted em.

[glowstone23b]

Hallo. I just saw your post about piglin man who is stuck in the overworld and all that, and you said if I asked you then you wouldnt stop talking about him. I want to hear it all. You sound like you have such an intricate plan for him, or at least did, and I would love to hear it

Loving you forever!!!! Okay you asked for it, beware! Here are some screenshots of the Man Himself in game through a server download I have of the old world. He's got a little minecart chair :)

The third pic is of his 'brain', per se, which is pretty simple redstone comparatively (but I'm not a redstoner, so I'm rather proud of it), which accepts gifts, quest items, and junk items, and will give gifts and responses in return. There's a dispenser right underneath the minecart he's in that would dispense the items he gave, and you could press the button on the wall to talk to him.

Fourth and fifth images are some screenshots of a puzzle I made for a quest he gave, which was INSANE by my standards! I didn't have much time to play, so being able to mine out such a big area, making redstone mechanisms aplenty, and terraforming like nuts, was pretty awesome for one person! The puzzle in the floor was controlled by levers to get a minecart at the bottom to end up in the right place so you could reach it. Along the top layer, there were potion-activated doors that'd drop down the gravel and concrete powder sections to reveal other blocks (after having 'transformed' them...). This was just to restock his gold supply & study other things from the overworld, but it was a BLAST to build!! The railways on the upper level had minecarts constantly riding through with other goodies, and would have been a way to get to a future quest later on down the line. Super proud of it still, I adore it very much!

Flint had a 'trust' system of sorts, where he'd get warmer to you the more things you did for him & open up to you! It was pretty neat! I just liked piglins (but the person I made the quests for at the time was who got me more interested in them), so he was who I ended up making. Later on, he's evolved a good bit!!!

He's roughlyyyyy in his thirties-fourties in human years (somewhere around 20-30 in piglin? still figuring that out), and about 6 1/2 to 7 feet tall when standing. He's really sweet and gentle once you get him to open up to you, but if you're not a piglin, that may take a while of de-traumatizing... He works at home as a caretaker for the piglets in the bastion, but helps where needed, which is how he got himself in the Overworld in the first place. His bastion specializes in potionmaking, so he has some limited knowledge of brewing that helped him get by. Regen & health potions helped a good bit, but not enough to prevent chronic pain after the whole ordeal. I'm still deciding on whether or not he'd use a cane or a crutch/crutches once he's healed, but he'd definitely be a little worse for wear than he was. On his free time, he loves carving gold! He likes to make hair beads, charms, or little trinkets to give to his little ones-- they go crazy for them!

There's so so so much I could go into detail on, but I feel I'd need some good drawings to illustrate my point alongside all my text. Clothing styles, transmission & aftereffects of zombification, husbandry of striders and hoglins, economy and trade routes, professions, bastion layouts, and just... any random tidbits I've picked up. So, so many! Anyways. This is mostly regarding his in game self, but hopefully I can draw a bit and share some info and little moments about him later on. Thank you for indulging me!! :D

Here’s one of the most recent colored drawings I did of Flint (I’ve been sketching a lot but no colors, lol), with two new named kids! Bedrock and Java :)

Lava bathing has gotta be the most relaxing thing ever… just throw back a fire res and chill out in the world’s largest hot tub.

[glowstone23b]

OKAY SORRY I KNOW I SAID I’D STICK TO TAGS ON THE NAMING CONVENTION POST BUT YOU’RE TELLING ME YOU ALSO HAVE A PIGLIN OC WITH KNOWLEDGE OF POTIONS WHO IS TRYING TO FIND A CURE FOR ZOMBIFICATION ??

Flintbairn and Icarus should pool their knowledge pronto..,.,, they would be unstoppable

Also I promise I’m not completely. Unhinged I’m just excited about this!! That is so so cool?? Hello?????

Okay LITERALLY holding your hand and skipping through some grass really gleefully right now I'm not kidding when I say this excites me to no end. Oh my god? Like, I'm getting cute aggression like if you see a very little and wonderful cat you just want to squeeze it? Doing that with you

Anyways. Drawing Flint and Icarus together right now we're going crazy (I'm kidding, but for real if you have a design in mind for Icarus, I'd be happy to help you get a visual on em ;))

I promise I'm also a very regular person with very regular interests that I am normal about and I'm not unhinged either! Unless it's piglins, then maybe. But only then!

And it's alright if you're a little nervous to reblog with text or send an ask but I'm glad you did!!! Like!!! You're a person who my blog was made for!!!! Let's GOOOOO!!!!! That makes me so unbelievably excited!!!! I'm generally pretty chill and I try my best to be kind to everybody (remember to eat and drink today please), so I like to think I don't come off as intimidating? Though my long paragraphs of rambling may scare some people off, lol. Thank you for saying hello!!!! Hi!!!!! Can we talk about naming systems and your oc please *kicking my feet, twirling my hair*

That's all, I'm just excited about it and I have no idea to express it other than using phrases like "rotating in my head", "microwaving him", et cetera. Complete nonsense because regular words don't have the capabilities to hold the emotions I feel. I promise I can type better and more eloquently than this, but sometimes I get a little too excited for my own good ^^;;

ALSO GET SOME SLEEP! I hope you are resting. Or have rested, I forget when you reblogged my post, but I'm someone who'd also stay up til 3 reading about piglin naming systems so I'm one to talk I guess, lol

Hello there all!

I don’t know if it’s a super common thing, but I’m starting a sideblog due to my love for piglins. I’m not kidding when I say I have a 40 something page long google doc filled with just notes about what their culture could be like, headcanon or not. I’m very normal about it. (I’m not)

Anyways, if anybody has piglin brainrot like me, please interact! I’m just here to vibe and gush about minecraft in general, but mostly the nether. A lot of nether.

I’ll likely change my banner and layout etc. later on, but for now my pfp is Flintbairn of Bastion Glowstone 23b, my beloved OC, and my header is GhostG4ming’s piglin origins sona (who can be found on artfight), both drawn by me.

That’s about it! Love you guys! Remember to eat and drink today! B)
