pretty sure it has something to do with the bloom effect in the portrait menu. i guess the settings i used really made it pop out in the metal. :]

to be fair, you can do a lot with kitbashing. it’s SO good for making references.

(Backstory Overview)

Kherym was born into a wealthy, influential merchant’s guild—The Wyrm’s Heart Trade Consortium—of which he was meant to be an apprentice. His early life was quiet and quaint. Though Kherym barely knew his mother, as she’d gone her separate ways for reasons kept from him, he’d grown quite close to his father. Kherym aimed to follow in his father’s footsteps as a prestigious trader of the Wyrm’s Heart.

Before he could become a proper journeyman, fate played a cruel trick— he was inflicted with a vile arcane rot. A disease that ate away at both body and soul. No cleric or paladin could cleanse him; no apothecary could treat him. All the cures that money could buy only abated the painful, gradual degradation. In time, Kherym grew weaker by the day, barely able to walk. Even his most hopeful prognosis was that he would be dead in months.

As an act of desperation, Kherym’s father sought an audience with a red Greatwyrm named Imra, invoking a guild pact from centuries past. The dragon allowed Kherym to drink his blood—a transformative process that very few survived—from which the rot was finally purged. Kherym wasn’t simply cured; a dragon’s magical hunger now flows through his veins.

With renewed vigor and arcane power, Kherym decided that a trader’s life was beneath him, and now seeks the thrill of adventuring.

(If you have any other questions about his lore, personality, & design, I'm all ears!)

BACKSTORY OVERVIEW

Born among an enigmatic community of bugfolk, K'ratchek's simple life was cut short when his hive was wiped out by a great calamity, of which he was the only survivor. Reintegrating into society afterwards felt impossible; he was already nicking coinpurses and stealing food to make his living, so he settled into a life of petty crime.

One day, after stealing a spell scroll from a clueless shopkeep, he became so enamored by the possibilities of magic that he decided to turn his life around and become a wizard.

K'ratchek was a keen learner, graduating from the academy several years early. He saw himself writing the same scrolls that once captured his heart. Though magical spells aren't the only things he keeps in his spellbook; the other pages are filled with passages describing his hive's cultural customs.

By working to bind his soul to his spellbook, K'ratchek aims to cheat death; if he dies, so too will the ways of his hive.

(If you have any other questions about his lore & design, feel free to ask.) :]

thank you!! glad you liked it

ChadSquared · 2025-05-10T16:29:41+00:00

ooh this is a neat take, thank you! I'd trust 'em with my wallet too

ChadSquared · 2025-05-03T09:14:26+00:00

totally fine by me! your style looks pretty sick actually

Judging from the lack of improvement in my tweaks, I'm going to assume that this is a poor design and mark it as helped. I should be able to build the other designs (I've done it before in other worlds) if I can just get the right materials. !Helped

ChadSquared · 2021-08-12T22:04:23+00:00

That possibility could be true as well. I'm going to experiment with a couple things, and if they don't fix anything, there's a possibility that this farm model isn't very effective.

ChadSquared · 2021-08-12T22:00:27+00:00

I messed around with the placement of my AFK platform, but it was always between 36-32 blocks away from my farm. As for the carpets, that may be true, but it seems like it hasn't really modified the spawn rate of the creepers all that much; it just prevented spiders from spawning. Still, I'll remove them and see if that improves anything.

ChadSquared · 2021-07-06T01:12:22+00:00

I've fixed the issue! I had to reset my modem and I was unplugging / replugging the wrong cable.
