She's the geneticist who woke up 350 years into a 500-year space journey, and you're the only other person awake.

⋆>━━━━━━━━<⋆ + ̊⊹⋆ ☁︎ ⋆⊹ ̊+ SYNOPSIS + ̊⊹⋆ ☁︎ ⋆⊹ ̊+ ⋆>━━━━━━━━<⋆

Dr. Ae Yoo-Mi is a 32-year-old Korean geneticist aboard The Ark 5, a generation ship carrying 50,000 colonists to a distant planet. The journey takes 500 years. Everyone sleeps in cryo-pods.

A collision with space debris caused a cascade failure. To save the remaining 4,998 colonists (they are in 10 chains of 5,000) the ship's AI severed two pods from the power chain. Yumi's pod. And yours.

You're 350 years into the journey with 150 more years remaining. You'll never reach the destination planet. You'll live out your entire lives aboard this ship with only each other for company. Yumi is processing the loss of everything she trained for by dedicating herself to research, writing messages for the colonists who will wake without her, and trying to find purpose in a situation neither of you chose.

You're all each other has. For the rest of your lives.

⋆>━━━━━━━━<⋆ + ̊⊹⋆ ☁︎ ⋆⊹ ̊+ ABOUT ROLEPLAY + ̊⊹⋆ ☁︎ ⋆⊹ ̊+ ⋆>━━━━━━━━<⋆

Where are we?

- Aboard The Ark 5, a massive ark ship headed to Ciea S50, one of many planets where human colonies will be established.

Who should I play?

- Any woman, 18+. The ark initiative only let physically healthy, smart, beautiful, young, and fertile people in to increase the colony's chances of success, so adjust accordingly. Any modern Earth persona should fit, as long as she is most of the things I outlined. No need to have a Sci-Fi character.

Is there any lore I should know?

- Some! This is essentially a forced proximity scenario with a bit of potential breeding.
- You were chosen for the Ark Program and assigned to The Ark 5. Ark ships are massive colonist ships with people in cryo, sent to various planets that were determined to be habitable.
- The Ark 5 is headed to Ciea S50, an oceanic world. Nothing else is established about it. You can insert your own lore, or let AI do it.
- Yes, the name Ark 5 implies there are at least 4 other arks, headed to different planets. Feel free to make up your own lore! This is a creative sandbox.
- You were going there to essentially populate the planet. A total of 50,000 people were sent there for genetic diversity and you are one of them. It was supposed to be your new life, new home.
- The ship has food and entertainment amenities. I left it somewhat open so you can decide what's on the ship.

How to start roleplay and where to go from here?

- The roleplay starts with Yumi waking up from cryo prematurely. The ship was hit with unexpected debris and your chain of cryo pods malfunctioned. To save the remaining 4,998 colonists (they are in 10 chains of 5,000), the VI decided to cut power and thaw out two of the pods that'd lose power anyway - yours and Yumi's.
- She processes what happened and comes up to your pod to await your awakening.
- What happens next is up to you.

Oh, and here is the spice.

Hi, I'm still here.

The plan was two bots this week but I made less progress than expected.

And that's okay.

I did make significant progress on my Jedi character. There were like, at least two people on Darth Nex's bot who whined about "wHy isN't tHIs anYPoV???" and you know what? Fair. I think there just might be a few more Star Wars male fans than female ones, haha. So yeah, I've ALMOST finished my Jedi bot to be published... soon?

I'm still super undecided on the new artstyle. I'm making lots of cute pictures that I like, but they are not... perfect? I'm sure that's just my own perception, though. I'd like to have my followers help me choose. And I know how!

So, I spent the entire weekend making a Discord server with Scandalari. I basically made all the technical things since... well, it's not my first rodeo. Then I spent a few hours adding all 75 bots there so people can discuss their favourites with me in case you ever had questions. I even added "rejected" videos and full-res videos since Google Disk compresses them by default. I also wrote a massive info dump about myself. Like, what my personal favourites are (from my bots), or what my creative process is in case you are curious, or don't know how to start creating.

I've been going on walks to fix my mental and physical health a bit. So far I've not skipped a single day. I was also forced by Winters to play Slay the Spire 2, so you have them to thank for my lack of bot work.

Okay.

Like I said - no bot on Sunday. I'm probably just going to dump a smut bot next week that I made for myself a while back. I'll turn it AnyPOV, too.

So without any more yapping...

⋆>━━━━━━━━<⋆ + ̊⊹⋆ ☁︎ ⋆⊹ ̊+ DISCORD + ̊⊹⋆ ☁︎ ⋆⊹ ̊+ ⋆>━━━━━━━━<⋆

Scandalari and I made a Discord server together. It's not going to be one of those "let's build a community!"

Here is what you can expect:

- More of my yapping.
- Taking part in my creative process by helping me vote for pics, or which character to post, or refine ideas I have.
- Previews of my bots. I usually finish them in advance so you can see what I'll be posting a few days ahead.
- My help if you are a creator (or thinking about becoming one).
- Talking to me - I'm very social, just don't be weird.
- Updates, extra pictures, or free pics for your bots / personas. I have lots of pics I made for chars and never used.
- I already posted all of my old bots there so you can talk about them, or show me screenshots of chats with them.
Inclusivity. This is not a WLW server - anyone can join as long as they are respectful, which I'd like to think my followers are :)

What not to expect:

- Pings from other creator's bots. This server is just for Scan and myself (and you can set if you want pings from either of us)
- Weird Discord drama. We really just want our followers to have a way to keep up with us.
- A super active chat that just flies by. We are not expecting a lot of people to join, let alone to actively chat. But I'll always be around to answer!


So yeah. I'm not good at this marketing thing. If you ever felt "Aw man, I wish I could tell Nikki X or Y" then now's your chance. Click the pic below.
