So I'm Not Sure If This Has Been Asked Yet But I've Been Wondering. I Noticed You Don't Seem To Mind

So I'm not sure if this has been asked yet but I've been wondering. I noticed you don't seem to mind if other people make egg eater dragons but do you mind if people take your base lore idea (egg eating causing magic mutations in general) and make a different version of it? I've been thinking about writing something of my own about it but I worry it just comes across as copying.

Ah, yeah. I don't want my stuff outright stolen, but I also think people should partake in the fun(as long as it doesn't outright erase the artist, ya know?)

I've found that being transparent about your inspirations is the best way to go. If you worry about something being too close, you could always put an "inspired by" disclaimer. I've seen that done with AU's that are similar, and even businesses that are influenced by other mainstream ideas(think Pokemon vs Nexomon, or those sculptors that sell cool collectable creatures). That way you can be creative as you like and won't be accused of stealing, while my idea can still be seen by others. Pretty win-win!

I hope this was helpful! ^^

Weird question, did you watch a lot of my little pony friendship is magic?

Not just FIM. Been a fan since they had the witch sisters! I even have boxes of gen 1-3 MLP figures, and a few select ponies I keep on my shelf. I do wish people would stop ‘physically redesigning’ the old figures however, it hurts my heart seeing them get torn apart. But, they’re allowed to and I accept that. Some are pretty cool in the end!

Anyways, yes. I have watched it and loved it.

Thanks for the question!

Ah, this is just wonderful! Matthias keeps getting surprise fanart, and this one has a story that was quite fun to read! Sekhmet seems like she would body Matthias in an instant. Top shelf

Thank you for tagging me as well. I really appreciate it, especially with the amount of new Egg Eater content that people have been making ^^

Ive Been Thinking About The Parallels Between These Two For A While. Both Ate Their Sisters, Both Weird

Ive been thinking about the parallels between these two for a while. Both ate their sisters, both weird cannibals. Sekhmet likes to think she has more finesse than him though.

Matthias belongs to @hypergryph ! (bonus short story here)

Rannoch Instructs Her Sparring Partner:

Rannoch Instructs her Sparring Partner:

“Listen up. I can only teach you how to strike. It’s up to you to decide whether you have the strength to do so. 

“Our element is ice. Like ice we must be unmovable and solid, and like the biting winds we must pass through our enemies defenses with a mere touch. There’s the impression that mastering our element requires one to bury their emotions. Many warriors strive to become ‘cold and calculating’ in their style. This is wrong. It is weak. And you? You need all the strength you can get.  

“Remember this, Okira: True cold doesn’t calculate. It is not detached. It doesn’t stop until it permeates everything it touches, and when it has, it changes that everything from the inside out. You must be immoveable. You must be swift and agile. And above all, you must fiercely claim anything that dare stand against you!!”
