Luke shares a room with Riley in their friends' improvised hideout - the room has an improvised bunk bed, lots of pop culture posters, Riley's crayon drawings and plushies, some cheap string lights, and piles of worn-out but comfy pillows & blankets.

OC Aesthetic Deep Dive Tag: Captain Faalgun Falani

Rules: Make a moodboard with your character's aesthetic, a playlist that fits their vibe, "badly summarize them" (like, talk about their personality, but funnily), etc. It absolutely does not need to be super detailed!!!!!

I figured it'd be fun to do a character I haven't talked about much yet, so here's my little dragon man :)

Moodboard:

Music:

Dead Man Walking by Brent Faiyaz

Casual Fatality by Night Hawk

Elstree by The Buggles

Drink by Destroy Boys

Heaven by I Monster

(I think the common theme between all these is a deep, underlying sadness, but they still manage to be comically different lol)

Basic Summary:

Faalgun was born on the Flying City and given up to an orphanage at a young age. It was a nice space, and though he was always a little distant from the other kids due to his runty size and serious demeanor, he had a happy childhood for the most part. He joined the Flying City Ten'ka (merchant guards) right out of school, and had the makings of a fine career as a pilot, except for one thing.

Faalgun has a bit of an addictive personality. He might be uptight, but all sense of caution goes out the window when he gets an adrenaline rush. He flies crazier, takes risks, and makes rash decisions to keep that rush going. I'm sure you can guess that when he was introduced to gambling, it didn't go well.

He racked up debt quickly. He hated himself for it, but he couldn't put down the cards - the rush of adrenaline was just too powerful. In time, the debts got so bad that he lost his career, then his life when he was beaten in an alleyway. Now, as a ghost, he's been summoned back to pilot a ship past the edge of the sun's light. He hopes to succeed in death where he failed in life.

As for appearances, he's a little dragon guy! He stands at about three and a half feet tall, has blue scales, crystalline horns, and scaly whiskers. He wears the stained uniform he died in and his neck can swivel further than it should since he died when it was broken.

He's an honorable sort who runs a tight ship, despite his craving for adrenaline. He often accounts for his own weaknesses when he makes plans, in order to minimize the harm he might cause to his allies. Care for his crew also extends to their emotional states - Faalgun is attentive and eager to lend a listening ear, though he fervently avoids letting any of his crew know about his past life. There's a deep sense of shame at his core, no matter how good of a captain he is.

I'll tag @thecomfywriter @tragedycoded @greenfinchwriter @somethingclevermahogony and anyone else who wants to play :)

Man, those characters look like they’re having a situation over there…. 👀🍿✨

I'll go with some of the villains from Supernova Initiative, and Scrapyard Boys, @leahnardo-da-veggie

(Supernova Initiative)

For this WIP we have characters like:

The Director: a man responsible for countless illegal experiments conducted on LIVING HUMANOID BEINGS with full government funding, a man who tortured multiple people - especially a 25-year-old young man (Jack) whose little sister he had threatened with violence - for FUN, under the guise of "seeking scientific progress". Someone who is behind multiple corrupt colonization efforts on foreign planets, efforts which led to a series of brutal genocides along with lasting ecological damages. A man who kidnapped two innocent twin kids from an endangered civilization, and turned one of them into a supersoldier - later brainwashing him to forget his twin and his past once he grew up - and kept the other as a control test subject? Someone known for actively funding terrorist organizations and planning to instigate a civil war to sell his inventions?

Eldora: a warlord lady who betrayed and conquered her own people, slandering their ancient and peaceful way of life in the name of gaining power through warfare. A woman who forced the prince of the province she conquered to marry her and provide her with an heir - while later proving to be incredibly physically and mentally abusive to both her husband and the son they had together, whom she saw as a disappointment. Someone who killed her own husband two years after he tried to run away from her torturous grasp with their kid son, letting him die a slow and brutal death by poisoning in front of their boy. A warlord known for torturing and brainwashing prisoners of war, and who kidnapped Deimos Soll - a talented marksman - to try and turn him into her thrall, and then haunting his whole existence after he managed to escape.

Red Adder & Arachnys: The most vicious crime couple in all of the galaxies, the King and Queen of organized crime, a woman and a man capable of such destruction even the most powerful governments and dignitaries do not dare to intervene with their schemes. A duo involved in slave trades, drug trafficking, organ and cybernetic parts harvesting from living beings, racketeering, and all the workings of the criminal underworld. The owners of the most infamous brothels and strip clubs in the galaxies, where they employ captured slaves and thrilled sentient robots forced to obey their commands.

(Scrapyard Boys)

Jake Acheron - A corrupt billionaire raised on a silver spoon, Jake inherited his family's shady dealings and their business, which thrived and expanded under his management, much to the suffering of the city of New Omnium. Known to the world as a reclusive philanthropist, Jake is actually a brutal man who cares little about regular people and who considers mutants as a plague - despite being one himself. He funds the PHANTOM Industries and the Spectre Academies' horrible secret experiments and trials, all to boost his financial power and influence over the city. He is also not above hunting down and torturing anyone who gets in his way, even teenagers like Valen and his friends. Responsible for multiple crimes, with the most notable being murder, torture and money laundering, there is no line Jake will not cross.

Dr. Gladys Murklins - A celebrated and psychotic scientist, Gladys has been the cause of many tragedies, including the death of her former best friend and business partner, Cain Richards, after she set fire to his laboratory with him trapped inside, which traumatized and orphaned his daughter, Saoirse. Gladys is also the head of PHANTOM Industries' effort to great the best super serum in the world, as well as creating other, highly dangerous drugs to "keep the population in check." She's known for a falsely charismatic personality, which hides a horribly sadistic nature and a very amoral scientific outlook. Gladys also knowingly tortures, experiments and drives insane many of the unlucky mutant teenagers (those rejected by the Spectre Academy or picked off from the street) to fuel her scientific pursuits and create a new generation of "superheroes". She tortured and almost drove insane Josh Aleta, Erin Stellern's foster cousin, after the teenager accidentally witnessed something he shouldn't have.

Zander - A retired mob boss and now pimp, Zander holds the criminal underworld of New Ominium in the palm of his hand, being the mentor and patron of a new generation of mobster wannabes, while also remaining rich as can be. A highly perverted and twisted individual, he is known for sexually harassing and coercing his employees, while basically keeping them tied to indenture contracts that are nigh unbreakable. One of his most notable employees is Adrien Rosetrom, after Rhys & Gwyn's half-brother who became indebted to the mob and was forced to become a stripper to survive rather than be killed by Zander's goons.

Let me know if you'd like to be added!

I wanna make an appreciation post for everyone's villain OCs. Please please please tell me about the most nasty, vicious, evil little bastard from your brain.

I promise I'll be perfectly normal about them and not make them my blorbo <3

Thanks for the tag, @wyked-ao3! I've already done one of those here but I love this tag game and have a lot of fun doing it, so here we go again, this time with Valen & Luke from Scrapyard Boys!

(Also, shoutout to @thecomfywriter for creating this tag game!!!!! <3)

Also setting the stage! Let's think that, in this made-up scenario, Valen & Luke are stealing something from one of the warehouses belonging to the billionaire Jake Acheron, the villain of the story.

Valen and Luke would probably have made sure to properly bypass the security measures in the warehouse and gotten past electric fences (probably using Valen's powers to temporarily disable the charge so they could climb over the fence), armed guards, and multiple security cameras.

Then, when close to the warehouse, Valen would use the Henley shirt to craft a small, makeshift rope that he'll secure on one of the window's metal beams and use to climb the wall (with a boost from Luke) and crawl through the window. Once inside, he'll make sure he landed somewhere without any guards or henchmen, and then he'll find and open the door for Luke to get inside as well.

Then, Valen will use his powers to cause an electric discharge in the sector they're in, temporarily disabling the security cameras with a short circuit, hopefully without causing the lights to go out. Swiftly, they'll make their way through the hallways - now without worrying about being seen in the cameras, until they get close enough to the area of the warehouse where the bulk of the cargo is kept.

Getting through to that bigger area of the warehouse may prove a challenge, but using the oil and the lantern, Luke is able to set off the smoke alarms further down the warehouse, causing the door to be left unchecked. With the matches, the duo picks the lock and now inside the proper containment area of the warehouse, set off to try and find the vault.

Once they do find it, they do the following steps:

Valen shortcircuits the vault's security latch, causing it to fall open.

However, the Asset/MacGuffin that they want which is held within, is currently placed atop some kind of pressure plate. So, in a full "Indiana Jones" kind of move, Luke puts on the gloves - to avoid leaving DNA or fingerprints on the plate - and manages to swap the MacGuffin for the book with enough dexterity that the sensors don't go off.

They use the shovel to carve a whole on the warehouse's nearest brick wall that leads outside, after hiding the MacGuffin in one of their backpacks.

Then, they get out of the warehouse and haul-ass to the nearest exit route.

Once they're almost out, using the string as a makeshift sling throw the cup, Valen throws the cup strategically at a nearby alarm, to sound it off - just so he can watch the guards scramble to figure out what is going on, while he and Luke slip seamlessly through their fingers.

Successfully leaving behind the warehouse and the now panicking guards, the duo hops on the motorbike they used to get there, and drive as fast as they can to the inner city, before going to their hideout.

🦹‍♂️GAME- morreial's heist supplies 🦹‍♂️

While I lay there, waiting (I really did want those fruits), I scoured through my drawers, looking to collect all the necessary materials for this operation: a piece of string, a lantern, oil, matches, a book, a cup, an enchanted shovel, and a pair of gloves. And, of course, my navy blue Henley I found Caramel napping in the other day.

╚══ஓ๑♡๑ஓ══╝✧༺♥༻∞╚══ஓ๑♡๑ஓ══╝

tagging the TCW crew and all my followers to ask yall a goofy question: bolded above in blue are the tools Morreial uses in chapter 18 of Throne of Vengeance (ToV) to commit a heist of an armoured vault.

My question to y'all is-- how would you (or your ocs) use those supplies to commit the heist?

lmao this is so silly, but i'm curious, because editing me is reading this for the first time in months and i'm genuinely curious on how this man managed to pull this off when THIS is what he put in his toolbox.

Have fun!
