this group of figurines is surrounded by messy scrawls of paper and printed-out screenshots of a minecraft world.
origins
youve heard of this minecraft mod yeah? well, as a conlanger and worldbuilder, introducing a whole bunch of species into a world as malleable as minecraft presents... opportunities. I first got the idea for this after playing on some origins server that had some other mods as well (including, most importantly, additional origins, and oh the biomes youll go). basically the red avian goes out into the world to have miscellaneous adventures, meet different species, make friends, yadda yadda. its all just thinly veiled opportunities for me to make a shitton of languages. not that Ive actually gotten very far.
red avian ("ava")
(placeholder name) the plucky protagonist of our story! she finds her mountainside farming village life rather dull, and decides to set out and experience all the wonders of the world firsthand. she meets friends and... not-so-friends along the way. at some point though, she hears of a forgotten dimension whose inhabitants have figured out the secret to artificial flight. and to do it she has to get past a dragon? really couldnt be more of a perfect adventure.
───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────gray cat ("ash")
(placeholder name) some guy! he lives in a ravine that houses both felines and slimes, since both are adapted to climbing. already kinda knew cass beforehand. and then they both decided to join the group
───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────slime ("cass")
(placeholder name) they are mesmerized by the beauty of the world. also from the ravine
───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────inchling ("bug")
(placeholder name) umm silly guy? causes mayhem and destruction? is really just here to have a great time
───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────elytrian ("emun")
(placeholder name) they fled their home end city [insert reason here?] and got shot through the wing by ava because she thought they were a dragon. pretty pissed off and seeking revenge with the help of their new buddy ila.
───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────ila
(NOT a placeholder name. probably) found emun as they were bleeding and brought them into their enderman village to be treated, then proceeded to follow them on their revenge quest, because what else are you supposed to do when a handsome half-dead stranger shows up in your forest?
