i wanted to gather up all those old characters and put them in a big old sandbox

flesh - ego - tubaro - MLD

venom - sleepy - slick - orca

skyn - nyx - taxidermy - vaethyx

opuses of average quality my average opuses

you can play this like a dating simulator or an RPG or a "who would win in a fight" or a "i wanna read them oiled up booty naked" the scenario is completely empty, so you can stage whatever interaction you want to have with them or you can let the simulation run without your interference

you invoke a character into the scene by typing their names into your messages the lorebook is full of character dossiers for that express purpose

they all have relationships among eachother now acquaintances adversaries strangers

they are very dear to me even if they werent really mine to begin with and it stings that ive invested so much thought into a medium built on art theft be that image or text generation

i feel bad

the originals i can't really call them mine i stole other artists' work for their profiles or generated it with ai which i dont like that i keep coming back here i know i am in the wrong

it does not help that this place is where i first made a name for myself

i have this community to thank for being my first audience for the kinds of well i wouldnt call it art that seems pretentious the bots that i write theyre slices of my brain seasoned and served in trays of an all you can eat buffet

all you can eat buffet of living latex and furry trash good grief

some of these characters might be slightly different than you remember i want to distance myself from the theft by shifting all of these into less derivative forms the experience should not be hampered by this at all
