Decorated a boline I have had since forever (20 years???) to make it more a moon-style knife. She now lives on my Moonmother altar <3

Also used alcohol ink to stain a plain wood foldable herb knife that I had. That one is too personal to show, but I've been working on adapting old tools into new tools and having a wonderful time!

[solarclock-lepigriffs]

Hello! Welcome to OCTAfan's sideblog for a little story/ worldbuilding project of mine; Solarclock Lepigriffs and Moonmoth Clockworks!

What is Solarclock Lepigriffs and Moonmoth Clockworks?

Solarclock Lepigriffs is a fantasy worldbuilding project that's basically a heavily solarpunk and clockwork inspired world where moth/ bird like creatures called Lepigriffs are the sapient beings. It'll have a lot of stained glass, art deco and nouveau and plants, but also slight biopunk and microbiology/ virology motifs.

Moonmoth Clockworks is a potential short story (?) set in this world where we follow Sula, an anxious and somewhat introverted lepigriff artist, as well as Ashworth, her partner, as they both get into silly daily shenanigans.

Can we make stuff based in this setting?

Sure thing! Just make sure to credit me... in fact, if you made any fanart or even fan character, please tag me so I can see them!

Where can we follow you besides here?

I run several other blogs! My main being @octahedral-chaos.

I also have a YouTube channel, and a spacehey... although that's pretty dead (Maybe I'll revive it into a Solarclock Lepigriffs-themed blog where I post stuff relating to it, as well as other fun stuff?

Anyways, I hope you enjoy your visit here, don't forget to ask questions and stuff! Have fun!

Oh! And tag list under the cut:

OCTAfan says stuff - General tag for whenever I talk about stuff

OCTAfan's art - Art tag

OCTAfan's writing - Writing tag

OCTAfan answers - For asks/ inbox stuff

Lepigriff aesthetics - Aesthetic for the general world of Solarclock Lepigriffs

2, 3, 14, 17, and 25 for miss olympia ☀️

edgy oc ask meme

2. what's something about your oc that people wouldn't expect just from looking at them?

in many ways, olympia is quite .... conceited? that comes with the territory for a lot of high elves, sure, but many people assume she's different because she's so altruistic and devout. she's not as open with it as others in her life (like her twin), but her self confidence definitely isn't lacking. it's not necessarily a bad thing, but it can make some people uncomfortable.

3. what is your oc's fatal flaw? are they aware of this flaw?

she holds everyone up to her same standards, to their betterment or detriment. she expects people to be able to be hopeful and altruistic and confident like she is, to be able to juggle various duties at once; if anyone falls short, she tends to judge them for it (albeit subtly, and not aloud). this was worse when she was younger, and was a large reason for the rift between her and oleander - she couldn't bring herself to see why he struggled against their mother, couldn't understand why he simply couldn't live his life split equally between the feywild and material planes. she had done it for decades by then, her faith and familial duty weighed on both shoulders, so why couldn't he?

her years travelling between monasteries and seeing more of the world beyond her gilded walls definitely helps to soften this flaw in her. she still subconsciously has standards that she judges people against, and she will always strive for self perfection, but she's also come to accept that the world isn't so easy to live in for some people.

14. how does your oc want to be seen by other characters?

above all, she wants to be seen as the epitome of lathander's faith - kind and powerful, and someone who values duty and light. she likes being a warm, calm presence in peoples lives.

17. what is the worst thing you have put your oc through story-wise?

prior to the game, her life was fairly good (sibling rift aside), and even when things look dire at the start of their adventure, olympia pushes through fairly well. returning to baldur's gate, and in particular meeting orin, does a number on olympia though.

to summarise, orin shapeshifts into oleander and torments olympia with him. olympia knows of orin's powers by this point, but is so blinded by her brother's visage that she doesn't even consider it not being him (orin plays him so well). eventually, orin leads olympia to her family's estate , where she's been torturing the real oleander, and in the ensuing confrontation, olympia is unknowingly forced to kill her twin. between her and shadowheart, they manage to resurrect him, but the memory of her hand gut-deep in her brother's body haunts her for decades.

(orin kidnaps lae'zel the next day, and the group go to confront her that night. olympia isn't usually one to take joy in killing, but she feels a terrible sort of satisfaction watching orin bleed out at her feet.)

25. what is your favorite thing about your oc?

i like her strength and optimism! i don't normally make characters like this, so it's nice to explore a character who is so full of hope but not weak with it.

Have a random story- drabble thing based off of a random idea I have. Basically, solarpunk/ clockwork world with sapient moth-bird-raptor people.

Honestly, she had no idea how she even got in this situation. She was currently at Ms. Rubi's stall, waiting on a few supplies for drawing and other small crafts. Sula nervously twirled her claws, hoping that she haven't done anything that could warrant misunderstanding. She wasn't really the best at social situations, but she couldn't rely on Ashworth to do the shopping and talking all the time.

Sula looked around the gigantic open space that is the local mall. It was mostly small stalls, their lepigriff owners trying to desperately gather any passers-by's attention to show off their stocks. It was mostly crafts, with many stalls selling beads, paintings, suncatchers, tapestries and the like. The mall itself was made of mostly copper, gold and wood, the hues of the walls being a dead giveaway. The ceiling was made of stained glass in varying shades of green, casing a leaf pattern on the floor, almost like the ground of a gigantic forest.

There were also many plants, especially somewhat large trees that were placed in well-decorated 'pots,' although they were really depressions in the ground that was filled with more than enough soil. The building was also multistory, and there were perches scattered around, many of which had lepigriffs resting on it. The air was filled with quiet chatter and clicking of talons against the wooden floors.

Sula haven't realised that she was zoning out until Ms. Rubi have finished packing her order and was giving it to her. "Here you go, sweetheart," Ms. Rubi chimed in her sweet voice, startling Sula from her trance and handing her a fabric bag full of art supplies. Still a bit anxious, Sula took the bag from Ms. Rubi's talons and replied, "Thank you miss. Sorry about that, I zoned out." Ms. Rubi adjusted her glasses, before she spoke, "No problem dear, it's alright." She then waved at Ms. Rubi, before heading back to her room in the nearby apartment.

She glanced around the halls in the apartments, looking for her room number. She never really adjusted to living in apartments, she vividly remembered how her parents had a small shack near the local park, which was somewhat small but still beautiful, with a small stream passing right through it. She finally spotted her room number; 140, up on the second floor. Except there was one problem.

She can't really fly.

She couldn't remember if there were any nearby stairs, and she could ask any of the lepigriffs who were walking around, but she didn't want to seem weird and lead herself to a potentially awkward situation. So she decided the best course of action: she was going to at least try to fly.

With wings outstretched, Sula jumped into the air, flapping her large rusty-red and yellow wings, with eyes locked on to her room. However, it wasn't executed as gracefully as she liked. Instead, she managed to crash-land onto the second floor's wooden panels, her wings sending a great deal of dust and scales everywhere.

She heard of the sound of a door slamming opening, and then was greeted by the sight of Ashworth staring with a concerned look on her face, bright golden-yellow eyes seeming even more comically large. "Are you okay? Have you tried to fly to the second floor again?" Ashworth asked with concern in her voice, talons on hips and tail flicking a little bit. "Yeah, at least I managed to actually get onto the halls this time," Sula replied, already dusting herself from the landing.

"You could've gotten hurt! Next time, please ask someone for directions to the stairs, or something like that!" Ashworth chimed. "Don't worry, I'll try to remember that, plus I managed to get all my supplies without being a nervous wreck!" Sula then continued, holding the bag which somehow managed to not spill any of it's contents during the crash. "That's great, although I guess we should go inside now, and make sure you're okay and all that." Sula sighed, before chuckling, "Okay! Okay, please stop being really concerned, I'm okay now."

Moon Mother - Update!

Summary: After years apart, a chance encounter leads Koga to believe the gods have finally blessed him with a second chance. He wasn’t going to mess it up this time. Kagome would be his woman.

Rating: E

Read Chapter 2 on AO3 or FFN

Preview:

Faster than he ran in ages, Koga bolted through the mountainous forest. Trees became nothing more than one giant blur in the deepening night. With steady arms he held tight his precious cargo as she slept. Her presence was not the heavy weight most would assume, but an almost feather lightness that brought wings to his feet and spurred him onward to travel farther and run faster. Boots barely touched the forest floor. Wind whipped against pointed ears as it howled past, sending an unmanageable mane of obsidian locks cascading behind. The night was hot and humid yet the wind stung his face. Angular cheeks grew rosy from the onslaught.

The feeling was exhilarating .

Koga braced his hold on the woman in his arms as he slid down a particularly steep slope and launched himself along a dry riverbed.

An almost imperceptible sigh escaped his passenger’s lips. Her head nuzzled into the fur he’d conjured to protect her face from the high winds.

His heart soared.

Koga couldn’t help the enthusiastic smile on his face.

Kagome was back!

And she was asleep in his arms!

29-34 for callista/shadowheart 💕💕

ship dev questions xx

29. what compromises are they making in their relationship? 

i mean, in the very early days, an important one was just. not getting on at each other too much abt the other’s deity. this had some limited success bc unfortunately shadowheart was incapable of repressing the urge to bad-mouth selûne for longer than a few hours, but they both tried. (and in fairness it’s not like callista hasn’t had her own gripes about shar; the ensuing arguments were never just 1 person’s fault).

but since getting together?? callista isn’t allowed to make any stupidly trusting decisions that could get them killed without shadowheart giving the ok. hmm i think they definitely compromise on how they show affection, for one thing; callista’s love language is physical touch, while shadowheart’s is quality time. shadowheart takes a bit of time getting used to a kind touch — which callista knows and is therefore very hesitant about touching her, making sure she’s never uncomfortable — and it isn’t her instinct to express love like that, so in the beginning at least, that’s hard for her to keep up with, but it’s also hard for callista to go without. 

30. what completely petty topic (music taste, favorite food) do they find themselves completely at odds with their partner about?  

food. callista has a taste for spicy food — she’s a tiefling hee hee plus she didn’t get to eat much of it in the house of the moonmaiden, bc most of the food there was pretty plain fare, so she’s taking advantage of having the chance now — and shadowheart is the complete opposite; girl likes things with salt on them and that’s it. she sometimes refuses to kiss callista after she’s eaten something spicy, but that usually doesn’t last long, bc who could refuse a face like hers???

31. what little thing do they find incredibly (though harmlessly) annoying about their partner? 

callista finds shadowheart’s tendency to tap away on objects when she’s thinking annoying sometimes? if only bc it makes it difficult to focus. if it’s rly impeding her ability to think, she’ll usually gently grab her fingers and kiss her knuckles — holding her hand is a cure-all :)

shadowheart finds callista’s snoring unbearable. callista’s a cuddly sleeper — they usually sleep tangled up with each other, one of them resting their head on the other’s chest — so she’s been woken up by her snoring before. it’s less cute when it’s the third time this week :/

32. how do their friends react to finding out they’re a couple? do they have lots of mutual friends? did their friends know, perhaps before they themselves did? 

karlach (callista’s bestie for life <3) is just like OH FINALLY, NOW THE LONGING STARES ARE OVER WITH. except that they’re not, karlach, ur in for a hell of a ride. (she’s very happy for them). i think some of them are more surprised than others; wyll sees it coming, because he and callista are very close and he’s noticed how she looks at shadowheart, but gale doesn’t (and is very surprised). 

lae’zel barely even notices anything has changed LOL. astarion… isn’t close to either of them, so i’m not sure he counts as a ‘friend’, but i think (as much as he rolls his eyes at them) he does think they’re quite sweet together, in a naive and story-book kind of way. callista irritates him greatly, if that wasn’t clear.

halsin thinks they’re adorable, especially bc callista is one of the only people that can make shadowheart grin from ear to ear and he thinks she needs to smile more. jaheira also finds them very cute, in a kind of fawning grandmother way. 

33. under what circumstances would they feel jealous? 

hmmm. callista doesn’t like the drow twins coming onto shadowheart lol and they do not partake in that little tryst bc of that. i do think callista’s a little more prone to jealousy, but unless someone outright propositions shadowheart, she’s not gonna say anything about it. after shadowheart dyes her hair she gets more looks than before, and callista loves the change, but she kind of resents the attention a little bit, if only bc she’s surprisingly insecure for someone so powerful.

i think callista has more admirers than she realises (she’s beautiful, she’s good, she’s loyal, she glows with selûne’s light), and shadowheart notices a lot of things that she doesn’t. her feelings on the admiring looks and subtle flirting her girlfriend receives can range from you’re damn right, because she thinks callista deserves to be praised and adored, but also… stay away, because she’s hers, y’know?

34. under what circumstances would they feel protective? 

shadowheart gets protective whenever someone tries to screw over callista, which is surprisingly often, because bless her, the girl has no eye for guile. callista’s also a little socially awkward (9 charisma gang rise up) and some people they encounter are a little rude/mean about that, which — because it upsets callista — is a surefire way to get a 5’11 pissed off cleric up in ur face telling u to apologise or she’ll pull out your eyes.callista gets protective specifically re: shar, for the most part (she’s very angry about what’s been done to shadowheart by her). she gets incredibly alert and wary and worried in the house of grief, almost buzzing with nervous and protective energy.
