Lol
safiya skin is just like how they made lyca skin

I want to piggyback Safiya
Imma just, remember the context
But yeah, the maulers like Golus, Safiya, and the Ironjaw are mount worthy
Who is ironjaw?
not related but
what if someday
they will release 4-skill heroes base on the 3-skill ones
like for example, Ascended Mirael, but with different (still connected) skill set from the 3 skill Mirael
and it's from another period of time (future/past Mirael)
idk i just want to know what they will do in another stage of life
I wish
Ascended arden will fuck us all up
Ascended Vedan will be super annoying though. His ult in campaign and kings tower is pain enough, imagine if he had a 4th skill and sig/furn
Niru would be the best though. He can finally join his wife and son in the Inn
Ascended Niru for a Good Family Reunion
Imagine his skills though. Probably be focused more on his reaping and become a sort of tank Nara
We need a 5th durri
A female one
That's not a ranger
Ples Lilith
@frank meteor i'm not trying to say the lore is like... all bad
but a lot of the maulers' lore revolves around fighting and craving blood
yes? i just said i wasn't trying to say it was all bad
the issue is that, like a lot of other desert barbarian cultures, maulers are generalized as war-loving, mindless beasts
The red patch behind Drez's head, is it hairs or feathers?
the desert temple came later, with chicken man and satrana and antandra
you keep saying not all of them, but that's not what i'm sayin ghere
i literally started with "not all of them"
most, many, often =/= always, all
Why do people still thinking I'm unbrained ?
bro i fucking love maulers like they are my favorite faction -- i'm mad bc i think they get robbed
because u keep trying to defend against points im not making?
That's a reason to talk to me as if I was 7yo
i'm not babying you, i'm speaking clearly and specifying my point
feather
because you seemed to not understand that i'm not saying all mauelrs
what i was saying is that mauler lore often revolves around blood and war, which robs them of a richer culture they could have. the desert temple is a nice improvement to further define the culture, but it doesn't change that the core of the lore generalizes them as war beasts
The lore with maulers ended up just being. . .
this is on top of the fact that maulers are a desert people, who are currently being colonized
They're barbarian
which is a... not great real world parallel, given the aforementioned lore
That's why they're called "maulers"
it's very very common with any desert culture, which is why dont want them to add orcs. because orcs are often given the same fate of being mindless and having Not Great implications in general
They are called "savage war blood tribe" in Chinese and "barbarians" in Japanese
This doesn't imply that they are "brainless"
Smh my head
Also lighbearers seem very interested by maulers' ressources. Behind their "perfect" clerics and their "perfect" religion they are probably 2nd most fucked up faction
Bruh
lightbearers are colonizers
Bruh x2
i mean, Skreg's like, harvard professor right
. . .
the big brain rat
also ik maulers aren't brainless, i'm saying that generalizing them like the game does robs them of the neat lore we could have
like 90% of my hcs are giving maulers more agency
Arii, or you talk clearly without just spamming "..." or you're useless
It's your choice
They have official lore tho
They could have been given a cool and interesting culture but instead they got less than that, it's disappointing
Bruh x3
It certainly is a stereotype, would be nice if w got more worldbuiling on the Mauler and GB side.
I don't know whats gotten into you to think ill let you talk to me like that but fuck off
that's very rude to call someone useless

Useless to the conversation*
also yeah that was really fuckin rude dude
Me, writing my response:
Zeph: UseLESs
But spamming ... is
Bruh x4
Clear? Zephyr, in what language does the word useless ever be alright to call someone whose just in the conversation as reacting.
Anyways, back to the topic.
IN ANY CASE my point is largely what arii said, in that we could've had way more epic lore, but we got robbed for the sake of stereotyping
Where?
They also have such capability with their lore, there so much to to expand on but they just left it as "yup they got colonized"
The game clearly isnt stereotyping mauler as "war loving brainless savage beasts"
Wtf
w
Huh
well they do-
^
They basically refer to them as 'savages' tho
It checks out all the boxes wdym
Brainless apart they do
If anything, Skriath is changing this
Skriath is like, one rare case about uniting tbh
one exception does not erase a stereotype my guy
Also reason why i simp
i'd like maulers to be better than this

in general, maulers are treated as barbarian savages, which is why i say i think we miss out on a lot of neat lore, because they're either viewed through the lens of being colonized/exploited by lightbearers, or they have the savage stereotype going on
Bruh x5
To clarify my point, I didn't write what I was thinking. What I tried to say is: saying "..." again and again is useless, not Arii, her messages. I apologize if I was rude @mossy parcel

Maulers have an incredible culture, Desert Temple, their own religion. It's just totally not used
And this is really sad
What do we know about their culture
that's part of the point

Almost nothing, we know they have their own temple
She gave them the oasis
We never get much of an explanation, we could've gotten more but we never did
Bruh x6
i'm so fucking lost rn i just want maulers to have better lore than they do why is this a controversial take
So far only graveborn and maulers got official FB posts on their lore
Why are you guys telling lies
not like changing or retconning things, just fleshing stuff out more and adding thigns
w
lying????
What are we lying about
Saveas i thought you liked Maulers why do you not want more lore

I want more lore for everyone
You can't say maulers' lore is used enough
Huh?
Oh boy
Im getting big plebbit energy here
Better leave before I start losing braincells
Plebbord
deadass ari, ray, reg, & i just want more mauler lore???

looks like an accessory made with feathers to me
I thought they were leaves 
So, in short
- Call them savage mauler brainless etc. in LBs' lores, which is nice
- Talk about what they actually do in Maulers' lores, which is better
Make it like, two sides of the problems, instead of also calling them savage brainless in their own lores.
Like, I thought he wanted to be a turnip or something
that's why headcanon exists tatsu
those could be the feathers of the beast (iirc they were fighting against a bird like beast)
idk i could see drez cosplaying a turnip
Dreznip
I don't have an HC of Dreznip
But now I guess I do
Off to the crack takes you go Dreznip
drez was grown in the ground like a plant
He's a PIKMIN
PIKMIN DREZ
PIKMIN DREZ
DREZMIN
God I can see Vurk and Kren trapping Drez with a sinkhole and burying him and then asking Skreg to pull a 'turnip' up and out coms a VERY murderous Drez
vurk and kren have not long for this mortal plane
But before that, Skreg stares at the skull he pulled up and freaks. And then realizes its Drez and freaks while Vurk and Kren go ZYOOOOOM out of the area
ok but have u considered:
skreg pulls drez out of the ground. and pulls. and pulls.
it's long leg drez
that's it that's the hc
they bury him and his plant-ish body takes the chance to get some sorely needed nutrients from the soil, so when he comes up he has legs 3x the length of his torso
FROM TURNIP TO JAPANESE HORSERADISH
FJKLDSJKLJFKD
he e l o n g a t e s
That could be a nightmare Skreg is having from constantly being toyed with by Vurk, Kren and Drez
now i need to find a horseradish png

???
"skreg, skreg, what's wrong??"
"vurk! it was-- and you were-- and kren was-- DREZ HAD STILT LEGS"
oh u missed long leg drez i posted a little bit ago?
Drez, looking annoyed and disgusted in the background
Khasos, overhearing the conversation goes to Brutus to explain a new method of fighting on stilts to compensate his height
Brutus, Tidus and Warek (the tall gang™️) just stare down at Khasos
no one asked but ill share it again uwu
JFSDKLFJD KHASOS
i think in a true nightmare skreg would see human legs!tall drez
Skreg's nightmare is everyone has lomg legs and arms
...do i have to draw tall vurk and kren now
Like that tiktok of that creature with the mask cooking
Cursed
so that's a yes
Drez the turnip boy
I wanted to give my input which i think is -right-
The meme that when there is a monstrous species, men are monstrous and all while women are big tiddy red colored generic women isn't -random-, there is a specific reason which i'm 95% sure is the fact that if you're attracted to masculinity, generically speaking you're also attracted to certain things, while if you're actracted to femininity, you're attracted to others
Lets leave out the sex appeal, i just think that broadly, statistically speaking, if you're into femininity you're not into more furry-esque femininity, and while i'm authority on this, i'm 100% sure if this wasn't the case you wouldn't have this happen 95% of the tims on any media in any game
I said I thought the red feathers were leaves and he wanted to be some turnip boy like Final Fantasy III's Onion Knight
So like, i think the designs of characters are skewed towards like this because of this, also
Which isn't -necesarily bad- but if you're not part of the big demographic of people that like that, it really sucks for you
Its the burden of being the minority, ya know
i wouldn't know for sure though because i have the BigGay™️
Agreed. That's why I think there should be some balance of designs when it comes to sexual dimorphism (I think that's the term)
You can have your human-looking men and women, but also have the 'monstrous' variants too
Arknights has this in spades with men though
i also think that, the reason why there are both monstrous and non-monstrous men is because generically speaking there is this misogninistic need of sexuality women to the broad demographic to sell more, so women don't get this "freedom"
like
Men: Sure make them both ways don't matter
Women: Need to be like this to sell more
i'm not implying anything, tbh afk arena has surprisingly alot of good design, even if it falls in that field of generically sexualized women too
Character design wise, I feel that companies and artboards should just realize that you don't need to sexualize a character to sell well.
The consumers and fans and simps will do it for you anyways
While i wish it was like that, i'm not really sure that's the case, ya know?
I feel like we fell deep enough into dystopia that characters might need to be sexualized to sell
and that, tbh, would majorly suck
Or have a really good story to draw people in.
Like the Nier series. They came for the Kyne and 2B but left with the feels and probably some psychological and philosophical turmoil
Hah, i've not touched Nier automata specifically because of the character's design, it made me really bitter and lost any will to even try it out, it felt like some cheap wayu to get easy money beause boobies hehe xd
but yeah, i get what you mean
I don't blame you. Nier Automata's impression is:
2B's butt
9S's thighs
A2's figure
and then you have
Emotional turmoil
Philosophy
Music
A story you keep playing over and over
So its like, a wide pendulum swing of two appeals
a company like afk or any other mobile game with minimal lore is gonna lean heavy on sex appeal to sell
furry women, even hot furry women, aren't going to be as attractive to their target audience
i dont expect lilith to ever make a full furry female mauler. i just don't. it's not who they're aiming for
would it be good for them to do that? yes. i would love so much if we had less monsterous men but hot waman of the same species
but i know full well if i want full fox satrana or full... whatever the hell antandra is, ill have to do it myself
Now I feel like drawing Mauler men but human with animal features like Satrana and Antandra
Just draw furry satrana and antandra
Its Spicer to make the women into furries than to make the men into non furries
But the bisexual in me screaming for Silverdaddyash like men
True
Also drawing furry women is hard. Harder than me trying to draw human women uwu
Don't stop at the women, just make everyone hot!
Silverash... takes drag of cigarette now thats a name I haven't heard in years...
Also
While we're still on the topic
I think some Mauler species could have an exception to the humanlike female rule
Like say, female Durri
It could be one of the situations where a furry approach is definitely better
And same can go for the opposite
If the men are furries the women should be furries
I mean, a human-looking Durri would be too similar to a Dwarf
Sphinxes and centaurs have human top halves, so we can definitely get male sphinxes that are relatively humanlike
Actually wait wait wait you're right
Ngl, I want a female Hypo that looks monstrous like Ezizh
We technically haven't seen male versions of species of Antandra and Satrana
Or a lioness queen to Brutus
There is definitely room
Probably furry since we have Brutus a Lion. Antandra is a tiger. Satrana a fox.
Tidus/ira mention
We don't have confirmation but its a reasonable assumption
if we get a full furry lioness i will lose my shit
i do not expect it at all, but if we get it i will ascend
Then again, Maulers aren't a naturally made race so like... yeah, we can totally have varying appearances
This, I want. Even though the two existing female hypos have justified looks, it would be cool to see an eldritch demoness or something
^^^
well here's the thing
lilth probably doesn't know how to make something like... feminine without giving it wide hips and toddies
so i'd be excited to see them stretch their legs but also really scared to end up with like luc with tentacles growing from her back or smthn
They adventured with Pippa at least
"adventured" is a strong word
i love pippa but she's the ditzy nerdy girl stereotype -- her appeal is in her archetype, not her visual design
An adventure can just be a trip down the block. And that's what they did.
It's progress
fair enough
if pippa means we eventually get full furry women, ill take it
also @civic geyser bit of a derail but u mentioned u had a shark wilder oc? 👀 i have an orca grandma and her electric eel son
Oh no, I was planning to make one but I don't actually have
o oki
Imma show the LB since he's my favorite and has more interesting stuff
OwO
teleporting lb... muy interesante
A portal gimmick isn't uncommon in AFK, since we have heroes like Oden, Zolrath, and Pippa
But Alex has a more unique approach, mostly as crowd control
His ultimate is to create a large portal below the densest group of enemies and make them fall down, then scramble them across the battlefield and breaking formation
Skill 2- He opens up a portal in front of him to the farthest enemy. All allied attacks that pass through it will also hit the targeted enemy for 50% of the original damage
hmm.... im trying to think who could best take advantage of that ult...
honestly it would probably be mirael but she's stuck at L 
Probably heroes that involve either being close together or away from enemy lines
well if it scatters enemies, i'm trying to think of who has that kind of aoe
like p much field wide aoe
Oh wait I was thinking of enemies
at best it's maybe shem & seirus? and mirael if we pretend
hmm... might work decently with an eironn comp...
Dont forget Ainz
i regularly forget ainz cuz i dont have him
i think eironn would be best bc his pull is aoe and lets u group enemies for atks that are best done like that
one at a time pull wouldn't work too well, i dont think
or maybe im just used to comps that function best with enemy clusters
Nah I get it
I love using Skriath and Queen because they do the job of clustering said enemies
but an alex ult to stun, an eironn to grap, and then some other thing to damange
also i just realized vurk would be ok with field wide
Oh god
And if the enemies are unlucky they could even fall onto his traps
I think my favorite use would be to counter certain formations
Like Arthur or Anoki which rely on having allies close by, then the ult spreads them apart
Or Rosaline pocketing the backline
oh yeah
Trying to think of other formations for him
if i may... can i share my full furry mauler lady
cool; gonna pray i have it on this pc
i got a new laptop so transferring over stuff has been hit or miss
I see
so this is adrestia, but she goes by enyo
full furry lady because i'm not a COWARD like lilith
she's warrior class, strength-based
she's a kangaroo so she hits like a fucking truc, esp when she rears back and kicks
She's neat
she knows enough magic to infuse her hits with it, so she would do a mix of physical and magical damage
What would be her ult.
as of right now?
Dropkick -- Enyo rears back on her tail, summons her magic, then kicks the enemy in front of her. The kick knocks them back significantly, dealing x% magic damage, dazing them for x seconds, and applying a burn which deals x% magic damage per second, lowering the enemy's defense rating by x%, lasting for x seconds.
Lv 2: The damage increases to x%, and the daze lasts an additional x seconds.
Lv 3: Enyo's kick now has a bleed effect, which deals x% additional physical damage lasting as long as the burn effect does.
She seems like a mauler version of Saurus actually
oh does she?
she was made before saurus dropped so
Oh neat, its just coincidental
i have 2 more skills for her, but i never did figure out a 3rd
Attack 1: Uppercut: Enyo begins the battle by uppercutting the first enemy she encounters. She readies her magic and launches the enemy upward as she jumps. It deals x% damage and stuns the enemy for x seconds.
Lv 2: Damage increases to x%.
Lv 3: Damage increases to x% and the stun lasts an additional x seconds.
Attack 2: Whirlwind: Enyo delivers a roundhouse kick to her opponent, doing x% damage, with a chance to stun them for x seconds
Lv 2: Damage increased to x%
Lv 3: Enyo adds a second kick, which does x% damage and knocks the enemy back, but does not have a chance stun nor lengthen the stun of the first.
Lv 4: Damage of the second kick incrases to x%, the first kick's chance to stun increases to x%
these are also subject to change bc i haven't touched this doc in a while
Her 3rd skill should be a passive, I think everyone's gonna be mad if she gets a 4th stun skill

probably. i have her SI but she was made before furn was a thing so that's all i have
Ivory Earring -- An ear clip made of ivory, painted various colors, that was gifted to her by her partner.
Skill: Burning Love -- All of Enyo's skills have a chance to inflict a burn effect, which does x% magical damage for x seconds.
she's a fucking stun machine, she is
Alex does more knock downs over stun holy hell
i imagine her to be a bit of a glass cannon to make up for it -- she hits hard and stuns but is a little squishy for a warrior class
LMAO well my thinking for her skills was less gameplay and more them matching my lore for her
she's a roo, and kangaroos are like... terrifying with how strong their kicks are. so i figured she's probably hit hard and daze
thankfully, she's single target entirely, so it mostly fucks up the one enemy she's focusing on
i think if i made any of this aoe she's be more broken than she [apparently] already is
in my notes, i have her atk as "Strength-based, deals physical and magical damage (the type deferrs to whichever will do the most damage to the enemy)." but i have no idea how that would actually work
Ah
Maybe instead of either one of the two, you do both
I just got an idea, her 3rd skill should be the one activating her magic damage
yeah that's what i was thinking lol
ooo
i like that
kinda like luc's ult, except a skill
Yes
3rd Skill: Fiery Passion
After Enyo uses their ultimate ability for the first time, her skills and normal attacks will also deal magic damage equal to maybe 10% of her attack rating.
Level 2 increases it to 12%
Level 3 increases it to 15%
👀
in my notes i use variables just for simplicity's sake, & also so i dont have to work on balancing anything 
I see
Anyway there might be a way to balance her
You know how some heroes have prebuilt conditions, like Eluard's extra vulnerability without his shield, Mezoth cannot be controlled over half hp, or Rosaline following the strongest hero
You could have something to weaken her
oh i was just gonna make her pretty squishy
Or that
glass cannon
so if you have, say, a nara or an eironn, you could counter her just by acting first
esp nara -- nara's opening stun move leaves her vulnerable to any sort of follow up attack
yep
you use the stun to destroy the stun
Ngl Alex and Enyo are gonna be a strong pair
Aside from the first two skills I mentioned, his SI is pretty fun
what's his SI?
Signature item: Traveler's Blade
"Crafted with fine metals and blessed by an unknown force, this weapon channels Alex's desires and magic into itself like it were a part of him."
Skill- Boost of Willpower
Every time Alex casts a portal due to his skills, his attack and defense ratings are raised by 3%, capped at 30%
+10: Attack and defense ratings are raised by 5%, capped out at 50%
+20: Every time a portal is cast, haste and movement speed is increased by 5 points, capped at 50 points
+30: Every time a portal is cast, increases crit rating by 2 points, capped at 20 points
So essentially, he becomes tankier as the fight goes on
Normally Id say its op, but heroes like Izold and Ainz have more insane stacks
ooo
yeah
oh!! i do have another oc with skills that are also fleshed out, if youd like to see
I would, but I ought to sleep soon
😔 ✊
You could dump it all here and Ill read it in the morning
I love reading ocs, they're quite interesting
cracks knuckles
Like that guy who made the Graveborne Durri and the frankenstein girl gb
well u get a good night's sleep
oki, lemme find
At least you'll have room to put their skills too
ill ping u for it so u can find it tomorrow

Eironm 👍
My rosaline visited izold again and she made the same scared emote im--
Im alive
@spice mulch
Princess petra as new LB
Dang
Wonder what her skills will be
We literally dont know anything about her other than she was supposed to marry rowan
@dark heath yep thát all we know plus she is friend of gwyneth
**TRASH PANDA ** **TRASH PANDA ** **TRASH PANDA ** **TRASH PANDA **
TRASHPANDATRASHPANDATRASHPANDA
More animal characters? Screw that, we need more designs like Mehira and Solise 

I want fish wilder
animal women can be hot too if you're not a coward
Antandra's beta design was a perfect blend of animal and human but then her final design ended up being a cat girl
do u have the beta design? 👀
I think it was posted here before
ooo
yeah her beta design isn't as bad as her current cat girl one
still kinda "make her a furry you cowards" but at least she has the legs
Her hands as well I think
oh yeah
well, on the plus side, she & satrana let me build my wilder civil war hc and make some real dark stuff for wilders so... i suppose it isn't all bad
but i also take canon as a suggestion at this point so 
I just finished a game sprite version of my oc Divira 
Pretty!
Ty!
Nice!
oh @civic geyser
Name: Binna, Silent Serpent
Faction: Celestial
Attack Style: Agility-based
Class: Ranger
Role: Debuffer, Subdps
Attack 1: Carinatus -- Binna fires a poisonous liquid from her fan as she fights, dealing an extra x% damage and causing enemies in range to bleed for x seconds, doing an additional x% damage during the duration.
Attack 2: Durissus -- Binna snaps her fans open, launching several tranquilizer darts, striking her opponents for x% damage and lowering their accuracy and attack speed by x% for x seconds.
Attack 3: Arietans -- Binna fires explosive pellets from her fan as she fights, dealing an extra x% damage and dazing all opponents in range for x seconds.
Ult: Buchaechum -- Binna performs an elegant, dance-style attack in which she rapidly slashes her opponent, firing her darts, explosive pellets, and poison in quick succession, dealing x% damage, raising her dodge x% for x seconds, and applying the debuffs of her other attacks.
i got distracted drawing a proper ref for her 
oh oop 2 of those are switched
oh well ill fix it later
hmm. maybe not later. these do not mean what i want them to
She sounds like the very elegant type and well thought
Is there a backstory for her or a summary over her backstory?
ok that should fix it
Carinatus is from saw-scaled/carpet vipers, which have hemotoxic venom which p much causes their prey to bleed out internally
Durissus is from the south american rattlesnake, which has mytotoxic venom that paralyzes/destroys muscles [including the heart & diaphram]
Arietans is from puff adders, which has cytotoxic venom that just destroys tissue around the location of the bite
uh... her backstory is a bit of a wip rn
i know it, but the context for it is a mountain of celestial/hypogean headcanons i have, which i dont have written down
the tl;dr is that she's an army general who doesn't talk and eventually gets left for dead on a mission. she gets found by her [eventually] hypogean bf who helps her learn how Not to be a war machine
If shes a snake or some snake hybrid could she have been a sapera that was ascended im really interested in the story you have planned for her
Sounds cool!
she's not a snake hybrid, i just thought basing her moves off snake venom was cool 
my thinking was that she doesn't talk, & works more with stealth missions. kinda like how snakes stay hidden but can ruin your day still
Silent but deadly as a person
but also just because "silent serpent" is a cool title and snakes are cool in general
p much. eventually she learns to be not so deadly, but she never gets particularly talkative
FUCK YOU DYNO
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
i feel legally obligated to talk about zephyr now too
Whos zephyr?

Because you are.
zephyr i do have an actual ref for, tho i dont have any skills or anything for him yet
YEAH, ATOM? WHO IS ZEPHYR?
he's 10'4 and likes to collect shiny things. binna is a Shiny Thing he collects, though binna initially just tries to kill him. he is not put off by this
yeah
lmao my original idea for them was just "i wanna make hypo/celestial romance"
Do the other celestials know about it for is it kept on the down low
the other celestials think binna is dead
a battle she was leading went wrong, and when she couldn't be readily found, they left her for dead
my headcanon for celestial culture is extremely militaristic and brutual, probably bc my point of reference was largely athalia at the time i made it
she would've tried to get back, except zephyr found her and was like "ah yes. a fine addition to my hoard."
it was largely a love-try to murder relationship, but eventually they got past that
zephyr's lore is also kinda really deep in headcanons i haven't written yet, but his tl;dr is that he started off super scrawny & was able to ~magic~ himself all big and strong after getting bullied by other hypos. but he doesn't care all that much about war, he just wants to claim anything he sees bc he spent most of his life having all his stuff stolen
i'm sowwy
he like... he doesn't intentionally try to make binna softer over time, he really just wants her to stop trying to kill him. so he does nice things for her to get in her favor, because physical force will just get one of them [probably him] killed.
binna is like ??? about it because she's never really been given [mostly] unconditional kindness like that. being shown something that feels quite nice outside of just constant war and strict rules that celestials had sorta makes her start thinking that maybe all that stuff wasn't ok.
zephyr still has to convince her sometimes [when they can talk without binna trying to kill him] because that was all she knew, but she gets better
I like this
I thought of a hypogean oc, sorta
I already had him an oc before, just thought about converting him into an afk character
Everyone sharing their ocs maje sme wanna reshare mine
Something something magnetic mage
Mauler, ofc
He has all these flying metal scraps, and stabs you with this metal Scorpion tail

I got the artbook
and I saw some prototype or early ver of some heroes
Kelthur is more creepy than the recently ver
prototype Khazard
and the long icy boi
Prototype Kelthur is... my favorite for those....
BLOOD🩸
OwO
and Hottie
y es
I like both ver Of Kelthur
why does almost every guy in this game have such nice hair
@tawny gust KHAZARD PROTOTYPE
Abdhd Snupper at the bottom of the image
The design is so cool 
long.
WE WERE ROBBED
I can see why they changed the design though
I love Proto Khazard too, the black works oddly well, but I think it's the same reason it feels less creative and akin to his element
They should add it in as a skin or something
His current one shows of how hes the water guardian and his beta shows more hypogean vibes
I guess it's hard to find that balance
OHNR FNDBCBB 
@trail kite is it possible to send more of these? I'm really curious how other's prototype designs look like
Or Baden's?, I saw Thane's already
the artbook this was from was likely finished before they were released
can't wait for the new Safiya skin
She's been my waifu since day one
I even named my pupper after her
I was surprised how young she looked in her new skin portrait but gorgeous none the less would match Talenes skin
The artbook covers heroes up to Orthros/Zolrath, it even shows the prototype fusion version
I remember seeing it somewhere
Is the artbook digital or printed only? Would love to see it
I have searched it a long time ago but didn't found anything 
Printed only, sold in Taiwan only too
Im kinda sad about that
But at the same time, i have mixed feelings about afk art
Some of the designs are great and then theres....
The entirety of lightbearers...

Goddamn man why do they have to be so bland
Fusion. . ?
Have yall seen the Numisu prototype? I'm so fucking sad about that
It was so cool

Wait a minute didn't Khazard come out after Orthros/Zolrath?
Yeah
Hmmmm, there might be a small chance of mezoth then
Though if Cecilia/Solise aren't in the book the Mezoth isn't in
Because those two were released before Mezoth

lmao simp
Says YOU
The Cecimp and Mezimp interaction
Yikes
Simp meet simp
simpapolooza
prototype Rowan
oooooo
Lucius used to have a book too
THE DUCK HAD A BOWTIE
I want this version already
The fact they actually considered using the cape then tossed it off saddens me
Prototype 
Antandra is the one that have more prototype sketchs
Skriath...
also back ref
@mossy parcel
I have a habit of draw Baden with poofy curly hair
but not enough undead tiddies
wait.. his hair is straight and short

Prototype Seirus and his back ref
Eironn potential Femboy body
prototype Elf
and How to stand like Eironn
Ah so it was his prototype version rather than a skin
god mode Clockman
Boi be spiky
Holy damn izold
More spiky and nips
proto 
and
"EXPLAIN THIS TO ME... WHY THE SHOULDER PAD ARE..."
🚬
skelly pads
BRO Proto Seirus looks WAY better
I remember I had a picture of Seirus with that look
Yeah it was found several times before in Ads and other stuff
iirc
People thought it was a skin for him

His nips too hot
Bruh prototype numisu so cool
I see now, seirus has always been ugly
Even in his draft days
He has weird chin
Lilith did an oppsie not making him look like this
Looking ass botched chin
@civic geyser
I want to brush his hair
so... he has some straw of hair that longer than other
and his hair is short
Okay
I hope he had cake back then
Nice!
I think they saved those for her legendary skin
Her portrait is different
Same with Safiya
Khasos is just front and back ref
Oof
I need
I have to flip again
Back ref for Khasos
Wish there were Anoki
Lilith really needs to upgrade Brutus' animations
as you wish
Khasos' ass
a face of a DURRI
They forgot about his legendary appearance
Again

At least we can see his shoulder pads
@frank meteor
unfortunately, some didn't have ref due to... The book was published when the winter bounties event still happened
or stop after Skriath was released
I have one picture in really low quality
THANK YOU RANDOM

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

Yum
Now I'll not be so confused with the wig for the cosplay

Those thighs

Yeah
Yeah also!

Looks like he was supposed to cover his whole chest
Shame that he isn't uncovering it all
@coral zodiac come here, your boy

SFBDHMFJLFJLHX

look how good he standing
He has a nice posture
Zolrath use to have 4 arms

@foggy storm sorrry for the @ but I thought you'll like to see this
They have their own lore thingy
I remeber someone mentioning that
For all factions
Except celepogeans I think
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I want this book so bad

His real mom died for child birth
The middle one was her old official design but they changed it, same for antandra
So the middle one was in game at some point
You find her better. That's only your opinion not a fact ^^
Thanks but I already saw it ^^
1 or 2 weeks ago
Idk exactly
My opinion still stands, kek
No it's a fact
I personally find the concept art of Antandra better than the finished product.
Here's this pretty old character I made. She was supposed to be Silas' test subject but it took me like, a week the realize that the name was already taken by Cecilia the Light Bearer. I still enjoy drawing her since she was a mix of Silas and Doc Ock
Graveborn OC go brr
the tentacles were such a pain
she looks dope!!!
That's not because you like furries that everyone does too
It's probably the 5th time I've said this exact sentence in this server
nice grammar
oh dear
Thank you
❤️

I think it's a good idea for me to go run
Not a native speaker my bad I guess
u still have bad taste tho
Sick !
thanks you
A different taste*
bad *
You're kinda annoying
ur taste isn't my taste so clearly it's bad /joking
saveas never presented his opinion as fact
this is terrifying
so you were the one who started this
Question, how did this all start-
someone posted antandra's concept art again
someone was like "i like her concept art design more"
Interesting
zephyr did a thing about how "your opinion isn't fact"
Well, for one, everyone has different opinions on different things
and then mia was like "im gonna bully this man into the shadow realm" bc nobody really said that
he's absolutely allowed to have that opinion but being like "ur opinion isn't fact" every time someone says they think antandra/satrana should've been furries is kinda... Not Great
That's why it's called an opinion
True, very true
mia is poking fun at him bc nobody's trying to claim that their opinion is above anyone else's
Honestly I have literally no idea who anyone is but I like all of Antandra's and Santrana's design
it's a very defensive move that wasn't needed
i personally think they're absolute fucking cowards for doing it. give me furry women you absolute coward @ lilith
I see
their current designs are great, but it's less "make them furry" and more "make them in line with other maulers"
like i think for a lot of people, if mauler men weren't full furries, they wouldn't have as much of an issue
it's the fact that the men are furry but the women are furry lite that irks people
esp bc for a while, it was assumed that wilders were furry lite and maulers were full furry. like that was what separated them, and i think in lore that's also what separated them -- wilders were more human [hence only animal ears/tails, and maybe paws]
Oop brb-
i don't hate antandra or satrana's designs -- in fact, if it weren't for the clear like... getting rid of precedent for the sake of Hot Woman, i'd love them quite a bit [tho i do prefer the more rugged snow leopard look of antandra's concept ngl]
as it is, they're fine, but i feel robbed of them being consistent bc they wanna add more sex appeal to the game
the market for this game is like 18-30 year old men so it's not surprising, just a bit saddening
youre fucking annoying for being a dick every time someone even SUGGESTS taking your precious antandra tiddies away
like holy FUCK youre obnoxious
fun fact, my opinion is actually right in every scenario
this only applies to me
and since my opinion should obviously be taken as fact
prototype antandra was cooler

She looks amazing good job!
Ok seems another heated debate happend 
nah it was just one person getting salty because people have differing opinions
if that was a debate it was the saddest one ive ever seen
Yeah, what Claux said.
@hexed wind
❤️
Also Vixen your Oc is very pretty i love her 
OMG SHE LOOKS AWESOME!!!
❤️ 💓 💕
Based claux
based on what
i'm going to execute you

your brain on simping
both weak compared to my luc simping
Shush
Thank you for informing me that if you could hypothetically convince Zolrath to hug you he could give you twice the amount of hug TwT
I'm pretty happy he has two arms though as it's easier to draw
How does one pronounce “Khasos” cuz I’ve always said it as “c-ah-so-s”
It’s something I’ve always been curious about and I wanna make sure I’m pronouncing my boys name right
hmm...
i dont think there's a canon pronounciation? but i pronounce it "kay-sos" with the "o" being like o in "boss"
it might be kah-sos, with the a being as in apple rather than as in april, but i dont think it's ever confirmed
I see
Thanks for the input! I’m honestly curious to see how everyone else pronounces it cuz I think it’s kinda tricky imo
i pronounce it kah-sos like "ah" in "casserole" and "o" in "go"
I think we do it the same
@dark heath
Look at the thing
Hmm.
Oh my.
Actually looking nice asf ngl.
Yeah
I like the spikes
Theowyn is still crying
Girl gonna get arthritis after holding her hands on her eyes for about 1000 years
Wait you can send gifts?
You get gifts from the inn heroes
Flashbacks to when I'd pronounce it as Kay-ay-sios
Oooh
when's the patch?
Nice
@indigo star probably in 2 or 3 days. And the skin won't be available until the last day of abex event
Sometimes it sounds like quesos lulz
God dang it
Also I don’t use Safiyas but I think the skin is neat
Guys

Izold's pecs or warek's ass, all or nothin
Male héroes deserve those mousepad

Baden's pecs too
Baden's flat ass pecs wouldnt make a good mousepad
I love that album
But I have to warning that
Someone maybe feel uncomfortable about it
I knew the album is about dementia and
From stage 1 to 6
Angelo angst
Every memory he has are...gone
He forgot everyone
Who is the gallant three?
Who is Rowan?
Who is he?
What happened?```

I just thought about it and
Damn, whee can I buy it?
Twins mousepad. Use their heads as the wrist rest

cry in lack of strategy
I pronounce cassoss
I pronounce it as "Kay-sos"
Graveborn OC go brrr
(If you wanted to know more about her)
those claws can do some damage
Heck yes they can
multiple damage and bleeding effects too
Mhm
not to mention the tentacles
In close up drawings of her, I never draw them since they're too much of a hassle
Huehuehue
She looks like a comic relief graveborne
And admittedly, AFK could use some comic relief
The Durri bros have been carrying the comedy dialogue for a while now
Did you really ...
i dont know i dont like it
If we are on Dura's side and push Campaign to drive away Hypogeans why can we use hypo heroes?
We haven't had a lore explanation for that
because campaign is completely divorced from lore
most in game mechanics aren't related to lore
there are some headcanons floating around [i have one that says hypogeans can shapeshift, which is why you fight duplicates of heroes] but there's nothing confirmed
Not mine
Minor on minor violence. Playground, after school, by the swirlie slides
That call Kids bully kids
Hehehe
Daimon is the type of kid to suck the life right out of you then have Stitchy beat you to pieces
Then say sorry after
YEP HAH
They said,
Ainz took off his robes
And there he was, in all of his unrobed glory
Ainz Ooal Ungowned
You posted this already.
you should play this song:
Undertale is a great game and I really do highly recommend it, you can get a copy at http://store.steampowered.com/app/391540/
Get the Soundtrack on Steam or at http://tobyfox.bandcamp.com/
even I'm already post it then deleted it
Hot Ainz
Albedo must be in heat af right now
definitely
I think this was the original kaz costume/outfit wasnt it
But the team decided to change it
Thats why in the sprite kaz has a white top and less flashy get up but the art reflects THIS costume
Tbh idk why they changed it, it looks better
This is just fanart but im 100% sure i saw someone post a sprite of kaz with this costume
Another day of Izold terrorizing Rosaline, nothing to see here
Izold just want to make friends
Well, look at Izold
1.) He's trying his best to befriend da child, but obviously failing.
2.) Tough backstory, apparently literally losing his mind
3.) Looks like Frankenstein's monster on steroids
4.) He's in a place out of his element- a cozy inn far from battle
He's trying his best ok
Wym losing his mind
Ah nvm
This is another one of those things where english lore doesnt clearly say if izold has mental control over himself
Like how in eng baden lore it says he regained control but then lost it again but in chinese/jap lore apparently he is aware of himself mentally
I cant get over how much i love the way you do her hair its amazing
❤️ thank youuuu
That's her legendary skin
Very neat
Thank 
yeah no kidding-
Could there be one that lived a peaceful life, died happily, and still ended up undead
That one outlier
that'd be a nice change
If only
OOF
