Let's aim for 50 posts this time.

the EST night is dark and full of terrors

>>67777277
It was a valiant attempt but alas, back in the history books we go, a year and some months isn't a bad run for a general either way.

>>67779317
>thread dies

>>67776188
>Have a war.
Y'know wars are such a chore.
Why not a few light skirmishes? I'd like to have a tussle with /gem/ once or twice over rock candy mines while maintaining a usually frendry relationship.

>>67779888
the luna-ENluna conflict, as foretold by the Japan Sea Scrolls. Maybe a lunaito expeditionary force found itself in the Onyx mountains for some reason, and shenanigans ensued?

>>67780059
It would be especially nice if it was prompted by pemaloe recommending it as a source of fine ores without saying that those ores might have a word about it although Iunaito lore would probably need to be finalized by then, no issue in discussing it.

>>67781332
Damn, that pic goes hard. There's a bit of a funny hunter and prey dynamic in the Ela-Biboo ship, now that I think about it. Kinda like Botan and Watame.

>>67779888
Given their geography, the lunaitos probably get up to a lot of naval shenanigans. Might be easier to sail around to the other side of the continent instead of crossing the great savannahs of the middle of the continent.

>>67782016
>There's a bit of a funny hunter and prey dynamic in the Ela-Biboo ship, now that I think about it. Kinda like Botan and Watame.
Unsure if Grindstone was a name chosen by them or the fans but it is really appropriate

>>67785502
Like Tombstone, they said they took it from chat but actually they were just lurking /vt/ for ideas.

>>67783221
I just had a thought. If there's an aquifer then there's grassy plains. That said if the wind blows away from the mountains then you'll have badlands.

>>67786811
If we look at the region between the morig-gem mountain range and the heimin plateau, it's between two rain shadows from the north and south. The bodies of water are also probably somewhat salty seas, so I think it can probably be fairly called a badland. Or maybe warm steppes? I'm imagining it like the grass sea from asoiaf.

Hello yes I'm back after a few days, sorry for the wait I had some stuff to do. Anyway I finished with that map, included borders and names.

>>67776188
How do wars between generals go again? Seems like the joshus and miofa are at each other's throats right now.

>>67787095
Looks pro anon, good shit. Maybe we should come up with names to put in those oceans now.

>>67787300
Are they? What's the QRD? Wars usually took the form of writing a little story about what's going on.

>>67787482
its not too hard to read on, but apparently a joshu ended one /mion/ thread with mio and koyori, then a miofa went to (not really) assault the /mayo/ thread, first with hunting joshus and then with the Miofa Blitzkrieg ™, and... well, you can probably figure out the rest.

>>67787023
What would you call the sea in between continents like that. It looks like a river but its not. The sea would definitley be a dead sea if there's no good current washing the salt through. It could also be a hot spot for volcanic activity if that's where the plates are pulling apart.

>>67776188
Ok retard, I'll play your game. What are the nations of Marine and Fauna?
I'm bi-national.
>>67781332
The quality of this picture is incredible. Who's the artist?

>>67787841
>What are the nations of Marine and Fauna?
Marine doesn't have one yet. Fauna, >>67787095

>>67787841
Like, would Marine's people a pirate people living on ships? And raiding the lands? And Fauna's one would be a wild pacific sylvester people living in the forests? With nature and animals?

>>67787651
It definitely has at least more circulation and size than the mediterranean, but I don't think it's quite ocean-tier. If I recall my ocean current reps right, with our inverted planet rotation, warm waters from the tropic would be flowing through it up towards the north pole, so it'd be relatively warm, maybe something about that? The Atsu Sea?
>>67787841
Hello Saplichimi. Or Ichimipling? Kind of an awkward pair to portmanteau.
>>67787978
/uuu/ is something like that, yeah. Marine's people could be something along those lines, I think that'd make sense. What ocean would they do their work in, though.

>>67787879
>/uuu/ is western Europe
It's perfect.
I think about a name… some sort of ecofascist degrowthist reactionary nation…

Squirrels belong in stews.

>>67787978
/uuu/ has some pre-written lore. You can look at the archive. They haven't changed much. You you can ask a Sapling when they show up. In the last world they were pirates between Holo and Niji continents. So you would set up Marine as pirates again.

>>67788113
It's dead on the equator, so it's a bit more like the Amazon on steroids, in terms of climate anyway.
/uuu/ was in western europe climates in the last run though, funnily enough. An overgrown rainforest does fit the vibes a bit better imo.

>>67788073
>Saplichimi or Ichimipling
Never thought about it. The first one sounds better imo but I'm ok with both.
Sounds like some Twitter bio pronouns lol.
>sapl/ichimi

>>67788337
>It's dead on the equator
Oh ok, I only thought in term of land shape, compared to the reality.
>An overgrown rainforest does fit the vibes a bit better imo.
Well Fauna's design looks from a medieval fantasy universe imo. Even in her 3d lives her universe is set in a quiet, peaceful place, not in a tropical agressive forest. But as you wish.
Some sapling gives me the lore of our Medium Mommy Nature.

>>67788073
So it's less salty than the dead sea. It's still a bit too warm to have a fishing industry there unless we have a cold current mixing with the waters. Which would be great for fishing at the risk of whirlpools.

Marine's nation could totally be just called the pirate nation, and have no limited territory? All the oceans and seas would be their territory. That's the principle of piracy, no? They don't respect rules. Gura's territory would be some Atlantis shit? Where Pirate nation doesn't rule.

>>67788979
No matter how good a pirate, he needs a port to go fuck the whores at.

>>67788717
Yeah that's fair, I had the sheer level of vegetation in mind. You know, giant trees and roots everywhere, big plants, not necessarily the aggressive side of the jungles. Sapling will probably apparate eventually. A big thing is that there's a place called Fauna's cradle that is very magic, and there are a few colossal trees that are very important.

>>67788979
I'd recommend having land anyway. Having a home country to restock food and supplies is essential for pirating activities. Especially in an era where there's still no refrigeration.

>>67787095
About my border…

>>67789635
Right, that bit looked like this now.

>>67789635
>>67789789
You dudes really need to update that doc, It's border map seems to be hilariously outdated

>>67790292
Yeah, getting all the latest maps on the interactive version is on the TODO. Though I guess we'd want anon to post the full file of this version >>67664514.

>>67787978
>Like, would Marine's people a pirate people living on ships? And raiding the lands?
I prefer this idea, Mariners don't need land territory. All it does is restrict the natural freedom endowed by the sea, they don't follow any hierarchy or law aside from the law of the captain who is the king of their vessel. Some sea barons have enough ships to fight and win against more organized nations however holding territory is not the way of the Mariner so most decline in favor of a good bit of raping and pillaging. They would make for powerful mercenaries but fight for a pretty penny and aren't likely to abide by notions of honor or common civility although they might have some rules agreed upon by the larger captains, one such being that if a port bars Mariners from settling inside of it, that port no longer has the protection from other pirate vessels that Mariners provide.

>>67790860
I think that can work. Then, what makes a Mariner a Mariner is that they worship Marine, I'm guessing? United under their goddess, since it's not under a nation, land or government?

>>67791808
>Then, what makes a Mariner a Mariner is that they worship Marine, I'm guessing?
Likely this, red hair and heterochromia are probably ethnic features of Mariners but anyone who worships Marine would fit into being a Mariner. I also think that pirates and sailors can still praise Marine for a safe travel or give offerings without necessarily being a Mariner themselves.

>>67790860
I prefer this idea as well! As for >>67789474 historically pirates tend to resupply in pirate-friendly free ports in the New World as European ports didn’t like pirates much (naturally) so I can see Mariners docking and resupplying at ports that are friendly to them in this world! I for one would let them stay since I like nautical stuff and I kinda shaped this /vnug/ to be like one as well

>>67792757
One reason for re-supplying in the new world is because the old world's ports are filled with opposing nations' navies. You had British privateers which fucked with the French all the time and vice versa.

That said "if" we enter the age of airships sky pirates will be everywhere. I do mean "if".

>>67793260
Even if there are airships around, there are pretty good reasons for watercraft to still be important. For one, stuff that floats on water can move heavy merchandise a lot easier and more efficiently than something that has to stay up in the air. For similar reasons watercraft might be able to have thicker more protective hulls and heavier weaponry. Or at least those are some ways I think we can nicely explain the use of both.
>>67792757
Since Mariners aren't united under one banner, I could also see diplomatic variation depending on the given pirate fleet, maybe? As in, if you have a port that is generally friendly to Mariners, if one of them rapes and pillages a bit too much near the town and ends up with a bounty on his head, even if he's in trouble the other Mariners can still operate without issue.

>>67793880
There's a reason why history favors the fast flying aeroplane versus the humble blimp. Air piracy may take off if we're able to create magic flying fortresses. But that's a big maybe.

Also I prefer sea pirates over those hipster sky pirate pretenders anyway.

>>67793880
Makes sense to me! I think unless it’s something egregious like a full targeted invasion the people might not even mind that too much, although the potential raiding Mariners should know that it also means any counterattack’s a free game too. Basically vnuggets can understand the idea and many of them enjoy a nice hustle every now and then so they end up being friendlier to pirates as a whole than on average (it also helps that some of them might be looking to hire privateers/escorts for themselves)

>>67790447
oh yeah, sorry about that. busy day today (just popping before bed)

Let's say a certain baker and her dog gets captured. What breads would Mariner's be interested in having?

>>67796293
Ah, thanks anon.

>>67796717
np, also here if anything goes on while I'm in bed or can't be around to update tomorrow
https://files.catbox.moe/rld5gu.pdn

Origins
The fate of the first deadbeat is shrouded in ancient mystery, veiled by eons of forgotten history. Detractors say the first deadbeat was cursed by the divines to this inhuman form for his heretical worship of the Heavenly incarnation of Death. Deadbeat theologists assure that deadbeatification is a blessing granted by Mori to her beloved followers. Mordimdimen agree that regardless of the first case's cause, deadbeatification in the current day is achieved through two paths: for the convertee, the process can be started by hammering a magically attuned Reaper's Eye gem into his or her skeleton. The sternum is commonly chosen, though any part works, with the forehead being another popular choice for the most zealous. The other path is through birth; a fembeat will henceforth give birth to deadbeat children. This is a critical aspect of the process, as a human fetus wouldn't be able to survive in the colder womb of a fembeat, whereas the deadbeat biology is adapted to it.

Looking beyond how they came to be, the oldest found evidence of Deadbeat settlement predates the Deconjugation Hyperwar. On the surface, continuous resettlement of the region has wiped away most ancient hints, but exploration of the catacombs beneath the Ilimyth Valley led to the re-discovery of *alum* that could only belong to the ancient Death Angels used in the legendary conflict, based on residual magical readings.

In the current day, the Ilimyth Valley is still the most settled part of Morijigoku, though immigration to the coastal cities alongside the Arazan Bay have led to such population growth, these are now beginning to rival the cradle of Deadbeat civilization in population.

Governance
The history of ruleship in Morijigoku is a gruesome and tumultuous one. Deadbeats seem disinclined towards authority, or generally against all agreeing on a single thing. As such, the various regions of the land exist in a constant state of diplomatic push and pull with usually short-lived flare-ups of active hostility. Only the cities nearest the heart of the Ilimyth Valley seem to have a smoother political history, due to the overwhelming and stabilizing influence of the Ilim Temples' lukur. In the desolate wastes of the South, or the lush forests of West, the various rulerships exist in a careful balance of mutual benefit and unity under the Goddess.

I should probably figure out how much population can be supported in the Ilimyth Valley just by importing foodstuffs from the rest of the country... Good thing refrigeration won't be a problem, heh.

>>67796480
If the bread is the type that can't handle a few months of voyage than better no bread at all, methinks.

>>67797868
hardtack it is, then

I'm thinking deadbeats should have some mountain ponies. They're not fast, but they're strong and dexterous enough to ride on the mountain trails. Canadian Mountees use horses.

Hardtack is the Yankee word for it. The actual term is Ship's Biscuits.

>shenanigance.mp4
>/gem/ takes the islands and adopts a highly xenophobic policy. Simultaneous tunnel conflicts with Moriji partly thanks to pink alliance of sorts.
>Eventual peace, coastal surface gemlins eventually cool down agitations and open up for trade as part of peace deal but now have some navy of it's own, though mostly for coastal defense

>>67799060 (me)
Current relation:
>Cold. History of conflict, though peaceful now. Some trade disputes here and there due to Lunaitos not having as big of a peace of the pie in terms of sugar trade on the northern coast of the continent. People also view parallels in their respective goddesses as another point of rivalry, both insisting that their princess is the best

>>67798032
Yeah, I think we'd want something in that niche. I had some variation on yaks in mind, maybe with some characteristics that make them better beasts of burden or mounts bred into them.
Plus gotta have horns for that demonic energy.

>>67793880
So airships, mostly in forms similar to blimps, may exist but they're probably only used in fairly exclusive circumstances such as envoys traveling to lands that would be cumbersome to reach by sea or land, or by wealthy eccentrics for transport of light yet expensive goods?

>>67799706
Yaks have humps. So they're not good riding animals. But they are fantastic pack animals.

>>67800990 (me)
Disregard. I'm thinking of the musk ox.

>>67800990
>>67801107
Yaks do no have a hump as you say, but you know camels and dromedaries have 'em and riders make it work somehow, I wonder why it works with them but not musk ox.
>>67800512
Yeah, I think that makes sense!

>>67799484
>both insisting that their princess is the best
Shia vs Sunni moment, hate to see it. The only way the rift can be healed is a HimeBiboo collab.

Hmm, I wonder if I could specbio some kind of glacier ecosystem into existence. Cryobacteria are a thing, and phytoplankton thrive in colder waters, so maybe it's doable. Then other lifeforms could subsist on those cryoplankton by eating the ice.

>>67788979
>>67789151
>>67789160
Can I perhaps recommend an island or peninsula then for Marine?

Oi

Also a note about baker-chan. She is a Sanallite. Which means she is a master of deep space food preparation. The ship biscuits she prepares will not expire in ten years minimum. They will be whole grain. Great soaked in wine (or grog). And they're great broken up into stews and soup.

>>67806348
NTA but I kind of have an idea for some land: A temple built for worshipping Marine. If there's only one reason to have land its that. It doesn't even have to be on land.

>>67809476
Could be funny to have some random spot in the middle of the ocean be their "mecca", where good mariners must pilgrimage at least once.

>>67740855
I also wrote more! I hope you in particular will like what I did with our magic!

>>67809760
I think I'll let Mariner decide before going further. I just want a solid gold statue of Marine and her ass.

>>67811088
https://rentry.org/vtwbg2-vnuglore
and I forgot the link

>>67811088
Mta, but does that mean there's a bit of a magical gradient from the alpine regions to the coast? I gues rivers would bring down some magic down even if the galewort doesn't grow where it's warmer?

>>67811147
The literal pirate booty...

>>67811147
The good thing about gold is that even at the bottom of the sea it won't rust away.

>>67812358
Theoretically yes but I imagine the system’s reached an equilibrium long ago. Since we turned the planet around I think the prevailing wind of /vnug/’s always blowing eastward, meaning that evaporation from the western forest (from plant transpiration) will always blow uphill where it rains down back to the highland. After a while the whole /vnug/’s contaminated with magical essential oil even if galeworts don’t grow in the lowlands

>>67809760
could also be interesting of it was positioned in dangerous waters so that only the most skilled would be able to get to it.

>>67809760
>>67809476
Also, they have to maintain their ships and you cant do that proper while you're at sea. I suggest once again a tract of land preferably near a sea or an island.

>>67809760
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_Island

>>67819453
I mean, the Mariners could have their ships maintained at any friendly port in whole world.

>>67819851
Meh, I think Ichimin would prefer their own bases.

>>67819737
That's a fun idea. If we placed it similarly in the dead middle of the map our null point ends up a bit west of Sakuran. Though the magic point could be on the other side of the world to be in the larger ocean.

>Your goal of taking a once in a lifetime voyage through dangerous waters that can wipeout ships easily is so that you will get a chance to kiss the ass of the golden statue of your goddess.

God bless Takeshi bloodlines.

>>67821976
Hey, that was 3/5 of a myth collab, the old gods are so back

>>67825422
If Myth are old gods, what's HoloExodia/SanKi/Force/NPLB then? Let alone I-ki and Zero? Who are the new gods?

>>67825491
I think in god genealogy, EN and JP are kinda two branches in lots of ways. So myth would be the old gods of the EN pantheons, but not that old if you compare them to the JP pantheons. Then, just looking at EN basically most of them (phase, nijiEN, councilrys+advent, most of vsj) are new(er) gods.
Kinda like how Jesus Christ is the foundational figure for the christian branch of the abrahamic religions even though there's all that stuff in the Old Testament.

>>67825753
I see. How does PLs work then? Them during their mortal days?

What'd happen tho if the chuuba is something like say, Mouse or Suzy who have no past lives?

>>67825932
In general, if the PL isn't a vtuber we consider it outside of the planes of existence we're looking at.
Don't wanna get banned kek.
I guess for a deity to have "mortal days" they'd have to have been an anon at some point?

>>67826068
Yeah, something like that. If the PL is a vtuber, they'd also be mortal, until the day the accept their most popular iteration. For cases like the former dragon, its the mortal form being deified ala Jesus post Golgotha.

Does that mean all vtubers are gods in this world or some of them are mortals?

>>67826985
Only the popular/current iterations are. PLs are mortals.
What's the RM tho...

>>67826985
I figure the beings that stand for the fanbases/anons are fully mortal, and established vtubers are fully divine, and then logically beings that are between the two are in some transition state? Like, /asp/ies are about 90% mortal, while Kiki has grown enough to be 90% divine? At least that'd be my guess. I imagine the definition of "established vtuber" would vary a lot lol.

>>67827057
Nigga's gonna get smited by the custodians

>>67827201
How would the CEOs fit into this equation then? And people like A-chan/Nodoka?

>>67827057
Arcane schizoid knowledge that will drive you insane, any society that keeps track of these and still functions keeps this shit under lock and key. DO NOT RESEARCH

>>67827445
I'd say they're still divine, but another flavor, not the usual Gods.
A bit like how in greek mythology the Titans are the equals of the gods in lots of ways, but they're not the same "thing". Maybe they're a bit more eldritch, since they're less visible. Though A-chan is basically a vtuber at this point, so she might have changed classes.

Giwtwm

I'm hoping chumbuddies are still portrayed as cute shrimp kids. Even if they look like they come from Made in Abyss.

I slept on my glacier ecosystem idea, and I think I'm digging it. The cryoplankton can get energy from the powerful sunlight and grow using carbon from the atmosphere and trace minerals deposited from the mountains by wind. I mainly gotta figure out what it'd actually look like.

>>67847356
Not the ligga elmao

>>67848254
Are shrimps cute? They're kinda spiny and spiky.

>>67851015
I'm eating one right now, not sure if cute is the word I'd use. Juicy?

>>67852897
do shrimps have fetuses?

>>67853801
They must do, inside the egg, right? So the fembuds can get wasted once they lay the eggs.

Alright folks, this is your last call for submitting new players to the roster. The current ideas have been compiled here for reference: https://rentry.org/team-vtwbg
We are also looking for new adboards (512x96) and chants, so feel free to give suggestions for those as well.

>>67857776

>>67857776
I've got some spare paint.NET time, what sorts of adboards could we do? Maybe start with a basic map one.

I'm back from taking mom to the doctor out of town. Going to lay down before writing tonight. So how are you projects going?

>>67863981
More is always appreciated! Maps can definitely work well for this once they get stuffed into the necessary aspect ratio. Maybe something about the shift from Vitubia to Viti as well? Here's the link to what we have so far and what some other teams have going on: https://implyingrigged.info/wiki//vt/_League_Billboards Plus this new one from a couple threads ago >>67567529

>>67865170
I think I'll finally write about Viti deadbeat physiology a bit, since it's kind of a pre-requisite to a lot of things. Might help with that deadbeat yak spec bio as well.

>>67865445
I think I settled on a skin-tight body suit with booty shorts and an open t-jacket with a tank top for optimal latex underboob.

>>67865170
Waiting for feedback while brainstorming for the next thing to write!

>>67811207
Does the Bleak House quote describe accurately the technology used by /vnug/? Do they use coal as a power source?

>>67866774
I don’t know if we have coal to begin with. I imagine /vnug/ has a pretty sizeable industry and it gotta be powered by *something* but it could be anything from geothermal to magic if coal’s off the table

>>67866985
You've got a lot of wood, so maybe magic juice can be used to make charcoal a good industrial alternative, some kind of enchanted charcoal imbibed with essence that is more energy dense? If you like coalpunk aesthetics anyway.
(I think my subconscious stole that from a minecraft mod, but I can't remember which)

>>67867265
>>67866985
I think you can have coal. It depends on what your pre-history is like.

>>67867265
I won’t worry too much about energy source since it’s probably the easiest thing to solve worldbuilding-wise. I do need to deforest the taiga we had but I think I’ll use them for building material like how woodpeckers use their tongue to cushion their brain box

>>67867444
I think it has something to do with geology but I don’t know enough about it to tell

>>67857776
I STILL VOLUNTEER TO LEAD OUR TEAM TO VICTORY WITH THE POWER OF MAGIC

>>67867683
Also we have a magical girl (Amoria) a literal goddess (Kokone) A magical potion brewing witch (Meeta) A magical bard (Lofi) and an angel (Serafi). So we can always just use MAGICS for anything. But if you insistent then we can use our abundance of wood to make charcoal.

>>67869100
I have plans for our magic! I imagine the magical gemstones actually store alotta energy but they’re more for something more portable than straight power generation if you know what I mean. I’m kinda leaning towards geothermal for now since I think actual coal’s also useful in making steel

>>67869638
Steelmaking is actually pretty cleverly efficient in how the coal is used to both heat up the iron to smelting temperatures and to enrich the carbon into the metal to make steel.

>>67869100
I'd save charcoal for cooking and forging. Charcoal takes energy to cook wood in a kiln. It's not as efficient to burn charcoal for power as it is burning raw coal. And if you have volcanoes then geothermal will take care of your power needs.

>>67787095 (me)
I do still want to keep updating this, so can there be a way to see what the newest update is? Maybe in the thread doc or something

Alright, so I'll just keep checking every once in a while then

Fashion is nice! I wonder if we can get away with making it a major export

>>67857776
Once again, I suggest as a player an Eirika MMD recolored to Sora colors. Or just Sora with her sword. Name her Aurorai. Or FE Anon, your call

>>67875919
Among their luxury goods, I don't see why not, especially if their products are particularly unique! I think you mentioned lolita fashion was pretty big? Victorian doll styles and such?

>>67875919
What kind of fashion are we talking about. Textile exports can be a great money maker if the materials can survive the trip.

>>67879224
Yes because they’re pretty! I didn’t elaborate on which kinds of lolita fashion /vnug/ end up having (since it doesn’t actually relate to /vnug/ that much) but I’m partial to gothic and pirate! Other subtypes like military, nurse and nun are nice too and probably will see some use in the relevant fields. I guess steam and EGA would also fit but maybe those are a bit too excessive

>>67880095
Textile export works too!

I keep reading /vnug/ as /vsnug/.

i wonder if those older lore posts about ruffians having half the life span of a human being would still make for good lore...

>>67883309
It might be interesting! Maybe you could have something along the lines of ruffians linking together in some way

Are we alive again?
I'm the dude who made the flat world place. Here's my latest updated map. I kinda stopped because this general imploded but if we're back I'll get back to work
Currently changing wording in Mel's nation to past tense (RIP)

>>67884492
F in peace
Yeah, we're pretty back, nice to see you. What's going on in NoelFlareRushia?

>>67884919
The obliteration of Rushia's land caused a humongous backwash of plague to sweep out as the near bottomless graves of the Uruha Highlands were suddenly expunged overnight. Basically imagine millions of bodies worth of disease and corpse gas that had built up for decades suddenly being let out all at once
Noel's nation has suffered the worst of it by far. Most of her eastern holdings are uninhabitable now. As Flare's people are tree hippies (elves in all but name), they have adapted far better.

>>67885447
>The obliteration of Rushia's land caused a humongous backwash of plague to sweep out as the near bottomless graves of the Uruha Highlands were suddenly expunged overnight.

honestly this is a pretty accurate interpretation of the Rushia yab

>>67883590
>ruffians linking together in some way
like conjoined twins?

>>67886041
Probably, without the physical deformity

>>67883309
I gave my people a shorter lifespan too! I imagine it has something to do with them being more adventurous and prone to their natural instinct

>>67885990
Twas the intention so I'm glad it turned out that way
In lore her lands got purged for the crime of attempting to use Necromancy to revive her deceased siblings.

>>67886195
Sigh...
I will still maintain it was big bad empire pressure that did it in my world. I would add that the pressure made her snap and finally reveal the rot inside her soul.

In Viti, you can make it some followers of the Church of Unicorn lament this.

>>67886730
I imagine that they would have had a very strong following in her lands due to her GFE persona.

On that note, is there any individual you wish me to create their countries for next? I'm taking suggestions. If I don't get any, I'll just go for Haachama next.

Fubuki's was finished before the general died so I'll upload that next

>>67886127
>Probably, without the physical deformity
...so regular twins?

>>67886935
Haachama would be pretty cool, how are you gonna work in the split personality thing?

I hate terminations and drama with them. I'm lucky Sana graduated with the good-bye stream she had.

>>67887028
Akai Haato and Haachama were created as two separate deities in an attempt to have two govern one land while having them be polar opposites. So as to cover both sides of the same coin.
However something went wrong. The two are believed to have slain each other and then pulled themselves back together into a single entity somehow. Two souls, one body.
Later Yagoo made Fuwawa and Mococo as a sort of do over to this concept that was far less unstable.

The two randomly switch which dramatically alters its geography, denizens, and government. Nobody knows when these switches will occur or for how long, but when Haachama is in control the others stay the fuck away and shut the borders to her state. She's still the only one to slay another of her own kind (Suzaku), effectively destroying a country.

>>67887090
Yeah me too anon

>>67887377
>Suzaku
?!!?

>>67887377
>Baker-chan arrives at the time when Haato switches with Haachama.
How fucked would she be? Also I realize Baker-chan is becoming a solid world-building tool by being an outsider visitor.

>>67887475
Really early Holostars who bounced before Hololive got popular. Pre-pandemic I think. Very few clips of him left. Sacrificial lamb basically as far as lore goes.
Funny guy though.

>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzHV_km8soA

>>67887728
Sorry anon but I'm not sure who that is

>>67887906
>Really early Holostars who bounced before Hololive got popular. Pre-pandemic I think. Very few clips of him left. Sacrificial lamb basically as far as lore goes.
Huh, I'm surprised the name didn't even ring a bell, he really passed me by.
>>67887377
Nice implementation of the idea, I like how you connect it back to FWMC, I can see some parallels. Conversely, does that mean when Haato is in control the neighbours can conduct business as usual and everything works fine?

>>67888049
He's very obscure. Almost no clips of him left. A shame really. And his channel got scrubbed too since he left before his contract was up.

For the most part yes, although she's still a bit quirky but isn't absolutely bonkers like her other persona.

I've also considered Gura as a person with an alternate persona (per her lore) but in her case it's kept in check by her people who pretty much keep her happy and point her in the direction of things that need fixing, while doing most of the actual work themselves

>>67887906
Baker-chan is a Sanallite traveling the world with a breadog and flying bakery. She doesn't really have a home. The idea is for me to write an anthology story about her.

>>67888760
Oh I see. That's a neat idea. Since Sana is an alum and left on good terms her country's still stable in spite of her being gone.
As per your prior question, probably severely. Likely gets maimed in some absurd fashion owing to ridiculous circumstances
Like, I dunno, running into some geezer who greets people by carving their names into their foreheads with a spork. It's basically Wonderland but urban at that point in terms of weirdness.

>>67889569
Well I'm not writing for Sana's general anymore. This is just a non-canon character to tell stories with. She's a Sanallite who's left to have her own adventure. She might not even be born in the Sana nation.

That said I wouldn't mind if the Sana nation is just an orbiting station ran by a skeleton crew. Ocassionally Sanallites touch down to collect supplies and materials before heading back to station with very little interaction with the natives. Like what if the old /nasa/ station got fixed and went to orbit. The station is a supply point for other Sanallites to stop and resupply before heading back out to space. Any Sanallite that choses to live on planet cannot bring any technology or blueprints with them. Also the station has an amogus problem with Mozzies, mosquito-like parasites that infect and take over a Sanallite's body.

But take this as a grain of salt. I'm just having new ideas based on old lore which is irrelevant to this world.

pink cute bump!

Just a random bump before bed. I have one request for Sanallites and that's that the women are tall and well endowed. Baker-chan is like a mortal incarnation of Sana with shorter hair, blue eyes, glasses, and a missing hand. She's still got that lovely tan skin and galaxy latte hair color.

People's Appearance
Unlike many ethnicities throughout the world, there is no ambiguity as to whether one is faced with a Deadbeat; if the individual has undergone deadbeatification, this fact is immediately obvious. An affected individual has a snow-white skin and lighter hair than before their transformation, ranging from platinum blonde to grey and blinding whites, as well as pale pinks for more magically attuned individuals. The iris also shifts towards the red, leading to purple, pink, crimson or orange shades, depending on the person's original eye color.

Deadbeats also have a peculiar relationship with temperature. In warm weather (~30 degrees Claragrade) the average Deadbeat has a thin body, with features such as visibly distinct muscle groups, and a generally lanky appearance. As the ambient temperature decreases, moisture is stored in the Deadbeat's muscles and skin in a tissue similar to packed snow in properties and appearance, increasing their bulk, reaching a maximum around 0C. This has a slight beneficial effect on the individual's endurance and strength, offsetting the added mass which must be carried.

On the other hand, as the temperature increases, the Deadbeat grows more emaciated, reaching a truly skeletal appearance around 40C. Surprisingly, despite this extreme dehydration, there are few adverse symptoms to this condition. As the skin grows taut over rib and bone, the muscles contract to a small volume while retaining most of their strength. This state is commonly referred to as "Skeletalism".

Physical activity on the Deadbeat's part also has an effect. Strenuous effort increases one's internal temperature, and accordingly one's skeletalism. It is expected for Deadbeat warriors to begin a battle with a more mundane appearance and grow utterly skeletal by its end, even if they are still hale and hearty, and even in cooler weather.

Beauty standards, especially among females, trend towards a fuller, colder figure being preferable, as this makes one closer to the ideal of the bodacious Goddess of Death in appearance. For this reason, especially in warmer climates, thick coats are a popular clothing choice. This allows the Deadbeat's body to be warmed less by the hot ambient air, and preserve the cold generated by their internal magic, lowering their temperature. Internal temperatures lower than usual can also be observed in individual with a strong magical attunement; especially powerful Isib may see their body remain below the freezing point even in tropical climates.

I wanted to have some way for deadbeats to turn from a normal appearance to a skeletal form during battles, since Mori does that in a lot of kakkoi art (The skeleton look is her unleashed reaper form). I think I'm pretty happy with this setup. Also the idea of deadbeat ladies putting on big coats so they can stay cold when it's warm out is funny to me.
Plus I love the fashion of thick winter coats, so that's a nice excuse to have them be a thing even if the country is on the equator.

>>67886935
I'll put my hat in for either of the two K's of EN: Kiara or Kronii.

>>67894864
Very nice!

>>67895609
Thanks! Hmm do you think asbestos coats will be among your fashion exports? Asbestos is good insulation, they must be pretty good for keeping cold.

>>67896570
Asbestos...on clothes?

>>67896714
Oh, meant to have a carriage return there. That part is for /vnug/, their clothes use mineral fibers.

>>67896817
Is that even possible irl? Then again, I think we're in fantasy setting...

>>67896908
Fantasy is everything

>>67896908
It's very possible, asbestos is used as insulation in houses, so it could be in clothes. Main reason it's not done IRL is because it's a carcinogen, and is a bit of an irritant probably, but if you mix it with other fibers it's probably workable.

>>67896570
That’s the plan! It’s a great thermal insulator so I imagine it can keep you cold as well as hot

>>67896908
It was a real thing! The ones I see look like some kinda rough flax but in /vnug/’s case it’s interwoven with other material so they’re more workable and good-looking

This is an important question and I swear it makes sense in context
Who among Hololive is most likely to eat other humans? No this isn't vore shit I'm talking about basic cannibalism sorta thing like with Aztecs etc

>>67898331
Ayame because Oni

>>67898331
Candidates:
Botan, Gura, Haachama
Not sure which one is most likely, but it would feel the most natural with Botan I think, Haachama is more prone to eating weird stuff like Ina's tentacles than humans.
Though Botan eats sheep with Watame, whereas Gura might have canonically devoured Marine depending on your interpretation of their MV together, making her the canon maneater.

>>67898331
Probably any of the demons n shit like Towa, Laplus, Nerissa

>>67898331
Mumei’s the one that springs to mind for me.

>>67898331
Mel is a vampire, so eating humans is kind of her whole thing, though I think she swore blood off.

>>67898924
Yeah, swapping acerola for it.

>>67899306
did she know that people would always misread that for areola

>>67898331
>this isn't vore shit
weak.

>>67900626
Maybe not, cause Nip

Live.

Watalive is kino...

>>67904637
To liven up the thread, who are the warmonger and pacifist nations of Viti?

>>67898331
So, what's the context? Don't leave us hanging anon.

>>67897515
>That’s the plan! It’s a great thermal insulator so I imagine it can keep you cold as well as hot
It might have a really nice niche in fire-retardant military wear. I'm not sure if deadbeat ice magic would make one more vulnerable or more resistant to thermal attacks, but if there's ice magic going around there's probably also some people throwing fireballs.

>>67906522
no such thing as a pacifist nation amigo

>>67906522
Looking at thread dynamics, I think /morig/ is probably a warmonger with itself more than anything kek.

>>67907233
Or is it?...
Are you sure those arent foreign spies deeply embedded into society?

>>67908093
There's probably a bunch of those, but deadbeats are also cantankerous enough to fight each other for no reason. Sabotage doesn't preclude self-sabotage kek.

>>67906522
Based on nothing besides vibes:
Vre: local warmonger, from being a small nation with something to prove
Uuu: Pacifist, as long as you don't step into the forest
Choc/Pink: Warmongers, but mostly with each other
Luna: Warmonger towards any thread that isn't argentinian or pink enough
Heimin: Pacifist, friendly even
Morig: Bipolarly excessively friendly and antagonistic depending on current schizo levels
Sakuran: Warmonger on anything that might perturb their kino flower-shaped borders
Gem: Warmonger to liberate Pebbles (any shiny rock) from ignorant foreigner hands
Vnug: With all the industry, basically Mordor from Lord of the Ring. Infinite Warmongering Works.

>>67908468
Elmao on vnug

>>67910031
I may not be the OG, but sometimes, ita too good to pass up

>>67912445
cheeky nation needs invasion correction
should /ouh/'s lore stay pretty much the same or should we lean even further into the epstein island vibes? I'm for the latter

>>67914648
Perhaps "the trade" is its main economy, comprising 50 percent of its GDP minimum?

>>67900778
okay then who canonically can do vore?

>>67918776

>>67917156
I'd like it if it had a kind of Asshai by the Shadows kind of vibe as well where dark sorcery is replaces with cunny trafficking

>>67920056
wow, I never see anyone talking about this lady on this board

>>67857776
One billboard coming up!

>>67857776
>>67922883
And here's an alt version. Which do you guys prefer?

>>67922883
>>67922958
Nice, I think the first one is a bit snappier maybe, but both work.

>>67920056
Who's this girl? Nice boobs.

>>67921028
Saa is an enigma.
She only occasionally gets mentioned in /lig/ despite having pretty surprisingly high numbers because of how infrequent she streams and she only shows up in the catalog when people talk about models with massive asses and or tits, to which the responses are usually.
>there is such a thing as too much ass
>no there isn't you're just a fag
She has obscure lore that you'd think would just be a typical one off debut lore to justify the model and dispose of but she actually brings it up as an ongoing storyline and she's the only chuuba I know who's been able to rap and sound unironically good doing it. Love snake mommy

>>67923911
She is Saa
https://www.twitch.tv/saavtuber?sr=a

>>67925725
W-woa... I guess you can't rely on the half of the chuuba you can seee when she plays vidya

>>67922958
I think this one works the most since it gets the homage across while still relating to the thread.
>>67925918
Everytime the model gets upgraded, her ass gets bigger. Her current 3d model has a derriere that's bigger than her 2d model I believe.

>>67908468
>Sakuran: Warmonger on anything that might perturb their kino flower-shaped borders
I can confirm there are squads of flamethrower-equipped 35p patrolling the borders regularly

>>67776188
Since it's official now, I'd like to request a change of /VRe/ to /VReX/

>>67929497
Another small corpo imploded? Or they just like the aesthetics of the X.

>>67929550
2 talents graduated, with one more announcing it. Out of the 8 chuubas, 8 have alts, 4 actively stream on them and the others have various degrees of life to them.
We held off on changing it till we had at least one unnafiliated chuuba stream, and that happened yesterday, so no reason to keep putting it off.

>>67929550
is X a running theme with dead/dying corpos?

>>67929733
I see, thanks for the QRD
>>67930818
I think /tsunX/ started it? I've seen it for a third dying small corp as well, can't recall which though.

>>67925423
based.
I honestly catch as many of her streams as I can mostly for asmr reasons but I can't do vr streams (motion sickness) so I'm very limited.
would love lore on her though

>>67929733
was this the one ophie just left?

>>67932261
Mhm. Well, she's leaving next sunday.

>>67857776
Here you go anon, feel free to downscale it if needed, but sometimes those things can use multiples of the same res so I uploaded the full res. https://files.catbox.moe/a6wcrq.png

Good evening. Its like everytime I come to the board there's a graduation every other week. So how is everyone's projects?

>>67906665
I think it’s just a good thermal insulator so it’ll make changing the temperature of the other side harder whether it’s heat or cold

>>67939020
I’m just gonna blame the magic in the water that makes everyone horny

>>67939881
Shark teeth are nice! I originally wanted to make them natural but apparently opossum don’t have them so I ended up making it a cultural practice instead

>>67940424
I’m trying to look into geology and climate stuff myself but I think I’m too dumb to understand them

>>67941163
I mostly look into what crops goes where based on climate. There's also soil conditions to consider which is based on current and pre-history geology.

>>67941163
>I think it’s just a good thermal insulator so it’ll make changing the temperature of the other side harder whether it’s heat or cold
This made me want to look into historical PPE for firemen, and apparently back in the day they were advised to grow a long beard, moisten the beard, and then bite down and breathe through it when they went into the fires.
Firemen are fucking metal.

I was gone for some irl work stuff but I will try to address any things these next few days.
I admit though, most people see to have a good general idea of what /uuu/ is about

>>67949340
that cat? yeah me

>>67949459
that may be a little too soon to talk about

>>67949340
Hello Sapling. I've been busy with medical appointments. So I know how it is.

butts

>>67932063
>would love lore on her though
There was an attempt a while ago in the old world but it never really came to fruition, her own lore is actually fairly detailed and interesting (https://virtualyoutuber.fandom.com/wiki/Saa she's the reincarnation of a woman who went into a desert and became a god of illusions that tricked the sun into becoming night? I've heard snippets of it in some of her streams and rewatched her debut but I'm pretty sure the lore on her wiki page is only snippets of a larger whole, still very interesting and based snake) and it was difficult to really mix that into lore while doing it justice and making sure that Saa's actual presence in /lig/ wasn't overinflated since she isn't too popular and Morsels occasionally get confused seeing more than 3 posters discussing her in the thread and used to think it was samefagging.
What I can recall:
>Morsels were a matriarchal society where features like waist size, hypnotism, and rap ability dictated who the High Histress was. High Histress is the leader of Morsel society and all other Histress kneel to her. She interprets signs from Saa and recieves the prayers and offerings of the Morsels in her name.
>Sexual dimorphism was very expressive, Male Morsels were typically 2 feet smaller than their counterparts and the woman are the only ones who have that big of an ass
>Morsels could come in a variety of flavors: Pale skin and dark hair like Saa, dark scales and more of a humanoid snake, literal snakes (may or may not be giant, rakshasha shape changers.
>Morsels reproduced in large communal snake orgies and raise their young communal style. All Morsels lay eggs and aren't don't really have an issue with cannibalism but still view it as murder if you're killing another Morsel for food.
>They live in tropical environments and prefer to live in very isolated colonies that rarely interact with the larger /lig/ community (although Mint Castella had a notification show up when Saa went live)

>>67955653
Are the Morsels like lamia or are they humans with snake tails?

>>67955653
>Morsels reproduced in large communal snake orgies
h-hot
Pretty well thought out society. We've got a lot of tropics to put /lig/ in, too.

I wonder if there's any late night topics I should bring up. I guess whether or not your nation has lewd artworks of your goddess would be a topic.

>>67960841
It’s inevitable

>>67961912
You look like you're in despair about it.

>>67961985
No, it’s not what I’m into but I don’t mind them myself

>>67962361
I was thinking Sanallites love their Sana lewds. I bet /choc/ would go nuts over Sana. They'd go nuts over baker-chan who looks like Sana. I don't know if /pink/ would like baker-chan. Though baker-chan would do her best making pink breads and cakes. Also insomnia bump.

>>67964354
Sculptures stained with both male and female nectar...

>>67789474
>>67792757
>>67789151
Yes but that doesn't mean it's their territory. How could you claim a territory if you're not there to defend it? Also pirates are criminals, no state would let them install their anarchy, but maybe because of corruption. But I like the idea of the exception, personally.
I agree with the pirate-friendly ports like you and >>67793880 suggested.
I can create some art if you want. We must decide what.

>>67965980
All hail the golden naked Marine statue!

>>67965980
What kind of art do you like making? Characters, environments? A mariner captain on the cruise would be cool.

>>67965980
That reminds me I can make art too, thanks for the brainwave.

>>67920175
Tell me more.

>giving the land a more temperate climate akin to an eternal spring
I don't think I had read that section, nice phrase.

Just a lil more

I’m up to the task!

>>67974927
You'll die but honestly it will be so worth it

Lars, it's time for the weekly niji graduation

>>67977561
There isnt actually another one is there?
I know this general is a neutral zone but what the actual fuck is going on in that company

>>67979043
Yeah, and it's not even Selen... I'm a "love the chuuba, not the company" kinda guy so I don't mind saying that I like most talents working there but their management is a total clusterfuck.

>>67979132
I mean there's a reason why despite rampant tribalism, the catalog tended to only really poke fun at chuubas like Rosemi and Pomu. It's not even like other corpos don't also have their big issues, but I can't tell if Niji's are just more repetitive and constant or if they spent so long not dealing with them that they've all piled up.
It would be pretty interesting to see how this would be treated in the lore since apparently the /jp/ side of niji doesn't seem to like the /en/ side of niji very much and both have a pretty weird history of graduations and reincarnations into other major companies that paint different pictures of their time in nijisanji. This would make for some really interesting lore, how would worship of the pantheon over the goddess look on such a vast scale? Individual temples being burned down and gestapo esque purges?

>>67980099
A vtuber reincarnation is a pretty destructive process, depending on the gap between the graduation and the re-debut, the hint-dropping, and how well-advertised the circumstances of the re-debut are, almost all the followers of the previous incarnation can lose the divinity thereafter. There's probably an event of "re-discovery" where the followers of the lost goddess find her new form and can begin proper worship again.

>>67981350
Or their past mortal form ascending.

>>67981350
>There's probably an event of "re-discovery" where the followers of the lost goddess find her new form and can begin proper worship again.
this was pretty much the lunaito origin lore in the old world

>>67982471
Oh right, the whole "Niji became Holo" news was hot back in the olden times

>>67984259
I just finished watching her Bday Live

So uh, has anyone made a vspo nation yet? They could be a nation that values guns and trigger discipline.
