ruby crown's story could focus very literally around a crown? like helping a deity that's lost theirs ... but it's a crown with evil embedded in it, given that absolute power corrupts absolutely, so when they find it it's Actually Bad. and the deity was oblivious to this... they only remembered the privilege they had as the crowned, but snaps out of it when ruby gets hurt by their actions. and realizes that maybe royalty isn't that cool after all

The History of Spinel

Spinel is a good candidate for the title of “History’s Most Underappreciated Gem.” Ancient mines that supplied gems for royal courts from Rome to China produced spinel, but it was usually confused with stones like ruby and sapphire.

Late Victorian Red Spinel 5-Stone Carved Half-Hoop Ring - www.butterlaneantiques.com

One of the most famous examples is the so-called “Black Prince’s ruby.” This historic crimson-red gem is set in England’s Imperial State Crown and displayed in the Tower of London.

It first appeared in the historical records of fourteenth-century Spain, and was owned by a succession of Moorish and Spanish Kings before Edward, Prince of Wales—the “Black Prince”— received the stone in 1367 as payment for a battle victory.

Don Pedro died just three years later, and Edward died before inheriting the English throne. So, the gem passed to Edward's son, King Richard II, who was murdered when he was just 21 years old. The Black Prince's Ruby passed through the hands of several English rulers, who died under tragic circumstances, causing it to be cursed.

clare, roni, and ruby's journeys are separate but they wind up meeting after each of them catches their respective galarian legendary birds. then ruby tracks the other two down so she can research the birds

It's been 3 years, and I still think about the Deep Bleu Sea fight.

the acoc candy couture vol 2 zine is literally the most stunning thing i've ever seen (CHECK IT OUT AND ALL THE OTHER ZINES FROM THE D20 ZINE JAM) and i drew the rocks sisters like i was fucking possessed or smth

i did a bunch of research to make smth sort of historically accurate for my primsy design last year. this year i wanted to just go off and go for pure vibes only. also i actually saved my process!

i knew roughly 2 things i wanted for this piece: outrageous medieval-esque fashions (historical accuracy not required) and also twists for their licorice hair. i put together a pureref, found a pose reference, and played with several different color palettes really terribly until i found one i liked! the details made me wanna die but the end result was sooooo worth it
