Slowly working through his backlog... I have gwenno's phofile photo...kinda done?... not the way I like it though..I might restart and try a different method, it's not working out the way I want it to..... half tempted to just do shading and sepia the photo or something though that would be the easy way out...

Sorry work has been crazy and I spent two hours extra today providing intel regarding wind conditions and location to our dispatch center after I called in a fire. (yes I work weekends)
I'm a writer too,
writing things for you,
Mostly 'pocylyse things though, check out my story from the start, Blog with the Blastwave.

Nnn this idea sounds good. I'd totally be in, but I'm off travelling the next three weeks and then organizing STUFF the two weeks after that, so maybe I'll join in later.

I'll probably be available as another cleanser (eh, so many directions things can go in...), but a sparkly new cleanser. My character will just have lost patience with parties that do not want an SSSS equivalent of a bard, and gone and done the training instead, even though it did take a chunk of her life. (Cue family freaking out again.)

So I finally updated/redid/fleshed out my SSSSona's backstory.

Spoiler: actually not grumpy for once • show

Not quite right, but the best for now. I'll someday do something in color.

Nationality: .......... Swede
Area of Birth: ..... Luleå
Gender: .............. Female
Immunity: ................ Yes
Profession: Skald, Bookbinder/Archivist
Languages: :sweden: :iceland: :finland:

Born in the far northern reaches of Sweden, the girl who called herself Mith soon decided that if she was ever going to get anything done, it would be in the capital. Mora was far away enough from the trolls and the hunting parties. And then, of course, there were the books and the researchers and everything! After several months of scrounging up funds and dodging questions, she took the longest train ride of her life (and the most tension-filled one, despite the crew's constant reassurance) and got off in the capital.

Of course, as soon as she was through inspection, she realized the major flaw in her plan: mainly, the lack of an actual plan. After several days spent longingly drawing the outsides of research buildings (and maybe libraries!), she worked up the courage to go and apply a job. Given what she had heard about the poor materials and bindings of pre-Rash books, she figured there would also be a need for someone to try to put the books together.

While working (and also while not working...), she prefers quietness and areas free of other people who might mess up her projects. She doesn't completely dislike socializing, but the times she does want to talk she doesn't know what to say, and usually ends up just staying silent and impassive. She also dislikes danger very much. The Silent World is very, very intriguing--old ruins and old books!--but there's also the problem of trolls and beasts and whatnot. Maybe if she had people to hide behind that didn't burn or explode everything in sight...

Awwww YES, another cleanser! B) I can't wait!

This is really cool! :D Both of you guys' slides have been updated!

Also, I made a thread for the organization of the expedition! Look at me, actually doing things for once. here it is! Everybody should go join B)

Karri: "Sorry about that. But we've got one book, right?"
Lára: "Yeah."
Beth: "But... that book?"
Lára: "I'll make a different cover for it."
Lára, NO.

This whole interaction is perfect oh my goodness.
And thus I joined group three in the other thread. :D

Okay so, I fiddled around with the contrast and the lighting for a bit with this one, I don't think it came out as good as it is in RL. But whatever! I am too excited/nervous for this because it's my first art trade with Curry!!
So Curry, here's a Karri. I hope you like it.



I'd imagine Karri would sometimes take her glasses off, put them between the flaps as she gazes off into the distance of the burning buildings.
(and yes, there is fire in her eyes because why not)

Spoiler: I was feeling silly • show

Hm
I wouldn't mind making a self-insert, seeing as it looks like harmless fun and would be interesting

Buuuuuut I can't draw for jack so if I were to have 'me' illustrated I'd totally welcome that!!! Though I have no reference photo of myself whatsoever sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo *shrug*

Haha, I've been lurking around here waiting to post this. But photoshop is both new to me and extraordinarily uncooperative on my computer, so here's hoping it turned out for the best. So without further ado, my self-insert! Woo!  :P



Bio down here:

Spoiler: show

Name: Ana Nimetön
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Immunity: Yes
Nationality: Finnish
Area of Birth: Saimaa
Profession: Skald
Languages: Finnish, Icelandic, Danish, can read various pre-rash languages (English, Spanish, French, German)

Bio:

She spent most of her childhood in Finland, where her parents were some of the few Finnish academics. She had a small talent for magic, and so was taught some skills of a mage. However, when she was thirteen, her family moved to Denmark, and she became interested in the old world and its secrets. She became a skald and specialized in deciphering texts in lost languages. She has a collection of old world dictionaries for this purpose, which is her prize possession. She always keeps transcripts of the dictionaries and other supplies in her bag. Being an adventurous and slightly foolhardy soul, her dream is to man an expedition into the silent world to collect all the books she can find.


Hope you all like it!  :)

:usa: Yes.
:spain: Out of practice.
:finland: Failed to learn.
:vaticancity: Probably remember five words.
White text: Always ;P
