AMKitsune: After many a night spent in nothing but her 'underpaint', Katia declared never to be caught out in the open without clothes again. But with only one set of clothes at hand, which will be end up greater? Her new sense of resolve, or her internal body temperature?

samus17: If you read all the way down and are still unimpressed or unamused, have my sincere apologies for wasting your time.
Vidiotdragon: Cookies that taste like Hepatitis and fish! Nah but that's insane dedication and drunkenness.
Tahrey: > Blood everywhere, knives and tin cans involved
Looks like you might actually be Kazerad without realising it.
Tahrey: Hepatitis-and-fish flavour? I think I may have to find a way to effectively zoom this then actually read it instead of just looking at the photo thumbnails.

D_C_N: Welp, I've seen enough of the phantom menace to know that someone slapsticking their way into accidentally defeating an army isn't very entertaining, lol, may just avoid it entirely then.
Although, it may be mildly entertaining if she tripped and knocked the antagonist over a cliff or something... the possibilities. ;)
AMKitsune: @D_C_N: Yes. I'd imagine so at least. I think part of the reason that everyone finds Katia so relatable is that she essentially acts like any other 'normal' person would in her situation. She's not a brave adventurer willing to wipe out hoards of bandits for a chest of loot at the end of a cave or take on a giant frost troll. She essentially has the mind of a regular person thrust into an irregular situation (a regular person with alcohol problems,fireballs and telekinesis, but regular none the less). If she 'were' to kill someone, either accidentally or reluctantly on purpose, I'm imagine that she'd feel absolutely distraught afterwards. To the point of emotionally breaking down if I had to guess. The only reason I think she faired as she did with the big Imp was because she was forced into the situation beyond her will and it was a 'monster', not a 'person'. Of course you could always go down the 'killing someone' route, but I'd have to wish you the best of luck in writing it in both a believable way and a way in which your readers would feel comfy continuing with.
Saying all this, maybe Kazerad will have her kill someone at some point (on purpose) and not be too effected by it. I wouldn't imagine so though...
Geravind: It was completely hard to read: some typos, some unmemorable names, hordes of rare words (this one's vocabulary is on fire), nonstandard dialogues, not clearly logical decisions. It should be more... clear to comprehend for reader.
Katia still acts like a ballast, but it looked like she's an important person to be worth of saving at the beginning. It's completely okay, if she kills an enemy, but a kind soul -like hers- is capable of doing it only with real hatred on board. It would be nice, if author put a few (<1%) deeply professional details here and there. For example: how to cross a river in the best possible way or how to change formation, when facing a single enemy or a group of enemies (of course, such hints should come from someone completely professional, not from some clueless cat)... It's usually hard for an author to figure out such details, but a sophisticated reader greatly appreciates it. And it's cool, when character's decisions are copletely logical (accordingly to condition, temper, etc.) and their behavior is most natural.

D_C_N: Thanks for the feedback and the answers, of my flaws, that I was actually aware of is my poor dialogue.
And for the next story, I think I have a decent Idea of how to proceed. (I'll be sure to include more details regarding the features of, well, battle, in the next story)

D_C_N: I lied. I have no idea how to proceed. I think this segment may be the last. I think I just neednto practice more before I post anything else. So, I'm afraid my little story may have to end here.
Armored-Struggle-Wagon: @D_C_N: do not worry, as people will gladly make a fanfic about your fanfic, someday. :p

D_C_N: I know, er, well, that, hopefully is the plan. That I can pull Katia back out of this world and publish it with only my own characters. But the problem I seem to have is balance, if not enough happens, it will be boring. If too much happens it will be clutered. And if it has fast parts and slow parts it would probably be far to long.
Seeing as I am posting this to the prequel fanart site, I don't really feel that I could justifiably expect anyone here to read a 20 page story, where most of the content are things that they aren't really interested in. Thanks for the encouragement though. |

Strawberry-Jamasaur: @Nyflex: @Tahrey: It takes the context of the final Thieves Guild mission in Oblivion, "The Ultimate Heist", in which you break into the Imperial Palace and steal an elder scroll from the blind moth priests. The thing I love about this particular mission and why I thought it would be a good submission to the contest is because a lot of the previous TG quests are preparing you for this mission, so it feels good when you see all your hard thieving work pay off, and plus I thought it would give a lot of implied context to the image, though it took me all of an hour after posting it to realize how stupid that reasoning was
AMKitsune: It's the smallest of nit-picks, but shouldn't she have used the arrow of extrication by this point? Either way, absolutely adorable. If those Moth priests weren't blind, I'm sure they'd just give her the scroll if she asked nicely :3
Strawberry-Jamasaur: @AMKitsune: @Ja_Jarsha_Rovandi: Ja is correct in that, if you can find the arrow, it can be recovered, with the drawback that you would then be unable to remove it from your inventory. HOWEVER, this was never going to be game-lore accurate because I wanted the equipment to add the context associated. The original plan for this drawing was that Katia was in the Hall of Epochs, drawing the arrow in the bow, but in that plan she already had the scroll and was being chased by guards. I felt that would be too similar to my other contest entry(also I failed to sufficiently draw it, like, 5times), so I went with this, which is a better choice for the contest in my opinion. So you're right, but I already know. In fact there are a few points I've been expecting to get nitpicked, like the fact that the elder scroll she's being given is modeled after the one from Skyrim, not Oblivion
Strawberry-Jamasaur: OH MAN, You know what would be hilarious? If reading an elder scroll, which usually makes you go blind, counteracts the blindness effect of the cloak of gray tomorrows. I know it makes no sense, but elder scrolls are strange things that don't follow the normal rules of time and space. Do you think elder scrolls come in nightwriting?
Tahrey: How would you rea--- oh, right, I "see".
Anyway, I assume the pic refers to someone handing her the scroll in trust to "just have a look at", then the other picture is the follow-up where she and her accomplice(s) are running like hell with no intention of actually giving it back?
Strawberry-Jamasaur: @Tahrey: No, the two picrures are unrelated. And as I mentioned before, the moth priests are blind. In the mission a meeting is set up for a famous scholar to read an elder scroll. You go and take the scroll instead. Though I do like that idea.

Adroma: Woah this is really cool, with some *very* careful icing, this could be a baking masterpiece.
CaptainLackwit: That looks *difficult*
AMKitsune: Holy sh.... From the thumbnail, I though this was just going to be a mess of baked cookie dough. Turns out to be more of an intricately arranged, well made mess of baked cookie dough.
Amazing work.
Kewot_Rokar: My god... This would be amazing if it wasn't so depressing! Maybe if we made this into a pancake, then they could get their spa day!
doodlemancer: this is amazing!..now for some icing/chocolate to highlight the lines...

Can't figure out, what goes after "+" on the scheme.

TemporaryFace: I actually really love this one. There's so much batshit weirdness going on, and yet it seems like it could all tie together with just a little more context. For now, I am happy to wonder at the madness.
Tahrey: puzzle plus brain minus pants = oblivion portal ... and it's either Katia or Asotil's fault
horrors from said portal + aggy + dwemer technology + errant orc = way to remote control the horrors and also teach orc a lesson inexplicable lizard boobs = the only known surefire way to stop someone spreading jam on your neck and licking it off, by confusing them Also, LOST was just an excuse to put as much randomness and deus ex machina into a script as possible and see if someone, somewhere, would still commission it for a full season.

Filthypaladin: Ye, how'd you do these?
Armored-Struggle-Wagon: @Filthypaladin: Daniel mentioned he made a mould out of his wax dodger bust, he most likely made that, poured in some Cookie mix, and baked it, resulting in a semi-successful cookie. I admire your work Daniel, nice job!
Filthypaladin: That's pretty ingenious, actually! I imagine another go at these, with a generous coat of frosting to mask any blemishes, would make for a lead contestant.
Although, they're still pretty cool as is.
Armored-Struggle-Wagon: @Filthypaladin: (Off topic from the COOKIE) I've been wondering, do you have some sort of Steam thing? I would like to get to know you! of course, if you do not wish to be my friend, so be it. :p
Daniel: @Filthypaladin: Glad you liked it.
They were made the way ASW described. I used odontological silicone for the mold, so they smell like toothpaste.
Tahrey: Daaaang, Daniel.
DAAANGIEL. PS it looks like something you really don't want to find in your KFC bucket. |
