Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

I guess I should be making my own thread here as well

Mostly rambles about my two idiots or random stuff probably

Maybe some rp if anyone want?

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

First order of business
I finally figured out the height of Caligo and Aestus (my idiot deities)
And I need to put it somewhere because it’s ridiculous

Caligo is around 1m50cm (4ft9 I think) which is around average heigh, and I am not saying that because that a little smaller than mine I swear

Aestus, is 2m50 (8ft2 I think)…

I wanted a height difference, because the sun and moon obviously are different sizes, and either Caligo would have been tiny tiny or Aestus needed to be tall, I wanted Caligo to be somewhat average still so

i got this giant creature that is Aesthus now

For visual reference Caligo barely reach Aestus mid section

I find it hilarious

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

That mean you are 13cm/5inch taller than me

The moon is still small even when as tall as can realistically be (because of the sun)

Poor Caligo, he will be coming for your kneecap for the offense /j

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

Another rambles

Aestus’s body temperature is very high, cause, he is the sun, he can regulate it so people can touch him, and his clothes are specifically made to block out the heat so they are safe to touch, it’s mostly so he doesn’t burn stuff wherever he goes, but everything not covered? Skin, hair, wings? Still burning.

Caligo doesn’t care about the heat, he want hugs and he will get them

His own body generate cold. Only a little chilly, nowhere near enough to ward off or equivalent the heat but enough that he can withstand it for a bit, he worked very hard on specialising this ability to be able to actually hug Aestus for as long as he want, basically so he never as to let go if he can help it-

He made himself fire/heatproof out of spite and love for physical contact (and to annoy his favorite person)

Yes the height difference mean the moon can koala hug the sun and not bother the latter in the slightest

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

On the last note

The feathers are also burning, but they lose most of the heat when they fall, they are also very durable and incredibly soft.

Make for the perfect pillow, but the only place you will find one such pillow is in Caligo’s home, they took the fallen ones from when Aesthus molted his feathers, they helped preened them a little, that’s how they know they are soft and warm

He has enough to make a pillow nest of sort, that’s where he sleep, if he is not sleep clinging to Aestus that is, but that’s rare

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

I realised I don’t focus on Aestus enough (in my own mind that is) so i am talking about him a little

He like sewing, a lot, and picked it up very quickly.

He discovered this little passion by accident, Caligo managed to break a gigantic hole in his pants and needed a patch to fix them, but the moon doesn’t know how to sew, he kept puncturing his fingers and the patch never held properly.

He asked his friend, and Aestus offered to give it a try to humor him, thinking he won’t have much luck fixing it either, as it turns out, he had better luck, and the patch held.

He doesn’t have much confidence since he is blind and is somewhat limited in what he can do, so this gave him a little boost, he could do something, not only that it was useful and he enjoyed it, a lot!

He went fully into this new hobby, sewing small thing to practice the different kind of stitches, taking up embroidery and even making clothes! With Caligo helping with colour matching when needed

The patch is still holding strong, only needing to be resew every few centuries or so now, Aestus is very proud of his first patch.

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

Not me having to edit all my posts because I spelled one of my character’s name wrong

For days

I am very sorry to Aestus I forgot how to spell his name and I am ashamed

At least I hadn’t submitted the characters sheets yet, so it’s ok

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

I like my funny little men and I could keep talking about random stuff but I wonder what exactly you guys would want to know?

Like what stuff is more useful to know to would be interesting cause rn it’s just random little facts to build up/show personality or background for their relationships.

I can keep rambling too but I am curious



Am still curious about everyone else characters too, I looked a little at the art and
A you guys are so good at drawing
B your designs are cool af every one of them

My characters feel bland in comparison but than again I’ve been turning them over in my head like rotisserie chickens since I made them so that may play a part too

I would say the reason why I don't really know what to ask is because I haven't exactly interacted or really seen them in action yet. Whether that be in rp or in just general writing. Usually for me, questions and wonders show up after interaction occurs. By that time, it's nicer to explore the characters in story, imo.

As for the drawing
Idk if I was one of the group you referred to, but thank you.

For me, I'm still personally trying to figure out things when it comes to character design and improving my art. I can always share some ideas in my mind though. But keep in mind that comparison is the thief of joy.

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

That’s fair, I will write a short story about them. (I have in fact started writing one already)

You are part of the group! Very good drawings 11/10


I am trying to improve too, took me way too long to make the two drawing of my characters, I think I have an easier time drawing object and animals,

hands my beloathed

I am open to ideas or critics

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

Epic to hear, thanks.

While I personally can't really help you out on tips, I can maybe, maybe help you out on designs. That is what sort of designs you're going with, of course.

Oh, also please take in note that do not look to my art as a reference to design, unless you like the designs, of course. I've just been more or less reading up on it and thinking about it instead of actually drawing it. More theory and pattern recognition than actual practice lol.

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

I will ask if I need tips for design then thanks!

I won’t take reference form your art don’t worry! I usually look at series or movie for inspirations

like the wings are only where they are on their back because of series I liked where I thought it looked very cool on the characters to have wings there, granted my Caligo and Aestus’s wings should fold lower and not in in that way but I am too lazy to change it now.

Something I get design from music, idk how my brain make design solely on how the music ‘feel’ but I won’t complain, sometime photos helps too, but that one is usually for clothing designs.

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

No no no, I didn't mean you are not allowed to take reference from my art. By all means if you wish to, you can. If I'm understanding the use of "reference" in this context correctly.

What I mean is despite me saying that I may be able to help with design, I don't like some of the character designs that I've placed here. When it comes to design, I look at other artists and ideas, and see if I can synthesize multiple designs into something that I like. Oftentimes, the designs of characters for me is changing as they are all still in development, and drawings sort of quickly become outdated as I add new ideas and tweak the character closer to the final product.

I too take inspiration from media I consume often too. I'm thinking it's one of the best ways for creating ideas and characters. I don't listen to music often, but I understand by what you mean when it comes to the "feel" of the music and the inspiration that comes from it.

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

Oh man I forgot to reply sorry!

I think what I tried to say is that I prefer not to take reference from other people directly cause I don’t want to rip off other people design too much, it would feel like a Frankenstein kinda character to me

I can take reference in the way things are draw, that I do, like the sketch lines are still there so I might look at how the hands were drawn to try and make mine look better

That’s how I made better eyes, I use to draw the iris fully visible before I saw on other drawingso that they draw circles that go under the eyelid and then erase the lines that are not supposed to be visible and I felt stupid for a while

I don’t draw circles tho I draw arch? Semi circles? that look like they connect somewhere under there

I understand about not liking old design, I am still tweaking my own characters design, echowo just made art of Aestus and gave him claws and now I can’t imagine him without them and also it made me think with those hands he would have beans on them, so that’s part of their design now I guess-

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

On another note, I am unsure how to integrate Caligo and Aestus’s backstory in a way that for this world; as it would change their whole characters

Idk if I can just say they come from another dimension? In their universe it is possible to get to other realms/dimensions, it just take a lot of energy/magic for it

If i can say that it would be easier on me but I will try to change the backstory if it can’t

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

I'm not entirely sure how we work with universes/dimensions in GGaD but pretty much anything goes so I'd be interested in seeing what you come up with! I think it might be a good idea to run the specifics by someone else first tho. 
Personally at least I like to play around with the idea of long periods of time for deities. Because they're immortal and so there's room for a ton of backstory events in the hundreds of years or something. But there are a lot of ways to create a deity backstory and everything related to them, so you don't have to exactly follow my way of doing things (or anyone elses' either). Stilll tho it's nice to share ideas (I think) :D

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

It's interesting that you say that, because I kinda view that the characters I put a lot of work into are more of a frankenstein of ideas that has a layer of polishing, revisions my personal ideas/takes on top.

I was also meaning to reply to that second post of yours. It's practically a retelling of what Specter says, but:

Zane's characters primarily come from different dimensions. You just would have to make a good explanation and reason why they're in this world. You know?

But I do think there are other ways to combine the characters with the lore of the world. At the moment ggad's lore is pretty open, so loads of people can add onto it. Though of course, I think that sort of stuff is best with feedback and conversation to better fit everything.

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

Thanks! Good to know I can keep them in their original dimension in a way

They are way too entangled with their original story to be reworked into another unfortunately, I would basically have to remade new characters to integrated in this story

I am looking forward to find a way they got in this dimension it will interesting

I would say that Zane's characters are more just AUs of his own characters, so they aren't one to one with his personal works

Re: Owl’s rambles -LazyOwl’s homethread

Fun fact
Caligo can and will bite anything
Sticks? Yes
Rocks? Absolutely
His own tail? Happened more then once!
Aestus’s hair? Yes, he just gotta avoid the antennas, did it once, never again.
Shoes laces? Already ate more than he cared to count

I still find it hilarious that Caligo and Aestus becoming friends is summed up by Cal seeing a person nearly twice his size that clearly doesn’t like him at all and going "hmm yes I will befriend them" and succeeding
