Description

The World/Lore/Color/Life Reference will be worked on shortly but not ASAP. Thank you!



I need to update things for you guys completely soon!


Simple notes! Please read for now until further reference work in the future!

Hoshibuki do not know of foreign races or worlds at all, however there is a forbidden and sacred Gate atop the gelid region at the point of Mt. Zenketa, where Hoshibuki do not travel but seldom to partake in this event, which allows one-way trip to Palleth and no return. Due to Tsukiyo in control of the rift, any Hoshibuki willing to pass loses their electromagnetism as well with ability of the spectral matter - finalizing any wound to not heal properly and death more prominent in one's solidified life.

"Negative/Draining" denotes environments and climates that will in fact quickly sap a Hoshibuki's energy causing immense sickness and lethargy; if one does not promptly remove themselves they will perish. *Hoshibuki are aware of their surroundings, having natural instinct to avoid areas that clash with them or cause greater damage. Some Hoshibuki may dress to survive for reasons unknown but to be in the negative-effecting region and dwell there.

In canon, Hoshibuki do not dress, eat or live in a modern style! They are one with their Moon and prefer organic cloth, material, etc. Hoshibuki eat mainly fish, meats, fruits, vegetation, grains as most East Asian cultures. Of course my main influence is Japan. They may harvest hide of beasts of Kaleido as long the energy is recycled.

Hoshibuki are commonly proud of their talents with building, cooking and being a general community. Think of olden Japan mixed with Animal Crossing, really.

Snowcap/Tundra region have varying fur types; far into the snowcap peaks you will find dense thick fur versus where in the tundra forests and flats the fur is shorter but well insulated. Longer furs can be trimmed to trek across Kaleido until it grows back or as long it is kept short.

Twilit is a region tucked away in shrouding night, I'll expand on it in time.

Hoshibuki before this sheet are considered OLD WORLD... they were created mostly randomly yet can somewhat still abide by the lore or structure of things. Hoshibuki spawning from four regional energies is quite hectic... two is the norm, three can happen rarely...

This reference sheet is a basis for everything, don't stress yourself to read everything at once - take your time!

Hoshibukinae are still a WIP/Work in progress! Thank you!

—————

UPDATE TRIVIA DESPITE WHAT I TYPED ABOVE/IN REF

IN THE WORLD LORE, I WILL SPECIFY WHERE HOSHIBUKI CANNOT GO BASED WHERE THEY SPAWN. OTHERWISE, MY OWN LORE HERE DOESN'T DO JUSTICE FOR THAT!

    Basically saying: You can use all of these traits for anyone... but based on where they spawn, there are clashing forces to that. Dumb me lol

ALSO! Realized burnt-out me forgot to edit Typical feet there, they are the most universally common... Oh dear.

—————

If you wish your Hoshibuki to pass through the Gate, please Note me and know you will not be allowed any longer to interact with the canonical setting. You are strictly bound to Palleth WHICH Hoshibuki have no idea they are entering to, the Gate is just a fabled unknown doorway that some choose to pass through to "be one with Obelus" *the Void and bring redemption to the Moon.


—————


I would like to thank candyciqarettes for unintentionally

solidifying my vision for the anatomy! Excellent works!

—————


HOSHIBUKI are to me, ; they are closed, creation for one's self is prohibited!

this came out amazing!!! it's really clear that you put a lot of time and thought into it. i can't wait to see where the species goes from here!!

and i have a quick question -- if we have a hoshibuki that was created before this, can we change them to fit in to this sheet? i know mine has a lot of "petite" traits that aren't listed on here; should i alter them to fit here?

What a fun sheet! I've always found your Hoshibuki to be very visually appealing so it's a real treat to see a full trait sheet. After reading through this I want to take another look at some of your older Hoshibuki and saw they had been cleaned out of your DA gallery; do you still happen to have them uploaded elsewhere?


Also, just for clarification, I know Hoshibuki are a closed species and you have "creation is strictly prohibited" on the sheet, but you have at the bottom of your artist comments that people making one for themselves is allowed? I wanted to make sure that this wasn't a typo.

BackwardsSnappy In reply to manic-in-tricolour [2018-08-31 02:18:16 +0000 UTC]

THANK YOU, my brain was truly burnt out while submitting this... "permitted" sounded the same as "prohibited" no matter the typing dear gods.


Other than that, thank you also for your words here!

Unfortunately yes I had stored my Gallery away to present a sense of absolute isolation as hiatus took place with honing betterment. In very near time they will be pulled out, edited to denote "old world", etc (I could let you know when that happens). And no - not uploaded elsewhere. To have Hoshibuki now in this vision - as seen initially by the mind's eye AND despite small things I feel to fix - just is wonderful.


Long ago you unknowingly influenced discipline to my mind, because you see what you do in your mind as well and translate it time and time again which is powerful for an artist. So for these, I did not give up. Thank you!

This is so well thought out ;w; I adore your creativity with this species X'3

Also, I have to be the dopey person for asking XP
Are you perhaps going to do customs in the future for these babies? I have had my heart set on getting a Hoshibuki to be my Set character for my Egyptian Gods clan ;w;/
They just have a great head-shape for what I am looking for X'P Not to mention their uniqueness ^^

BackwardsSnappy In reply to LandonKJB [2018-08-23 18:51:04 +0000 UTC]

Ah, thank you greatly!


Hoshibuki have canonical basis behind colors and marks,

and truly my headworld "Faraway" trademark is this wedge triangle broad matrix.

Truly my deepest comforts/aesthetic naturally.


I don't know if Egyptian aesthetic would be so freely used,

really don't prefer Hoshibuki as random design vehicles anymore.

We shall see what the future holds, thank you.

These were Day 1 envision, however I just couldn't translate back then...

plus dA helped yet also didn't... so the hiatus was where everything fused luckily.
