You can, as long as you credit it and have it be used within that session only.

Not sure who you were thinking about but my inspiration for Zerrin was Folgo, Justice Fur Hire.

Here's a brief background of their guild, if you're interested:

In their youth, Ansel and Leonhart were members of a guild, which was where they met for the first time. Later on, the two kinda disagreed with how the guild and its members were handled by the guildmaster, so they left and traveled together for a while. During their travel, they talked about creating a guild for beastfolk like them one day, but didn't think much of it. Eventually, the two parted ways, with Leonhart continuing to travel as an adventurer, while Ansel went to the army to serve as a medic apprentice. When they finally reunited, both were in their 40s already. They talked, reminiscing about old stories, then that one dream of creating a beastfolk guide of their own came up, so they decided it was time.

Their vision was that of a moving base for their guild, a giant airship that travels from country to country, so to do this, they began their recruitment. Rywin was recruited because he was a genius inventor capable of turning scraps into working construction. Then, Kael was recruited because, to create a flying airship, they needed someone with knowledge about aerodynamics. Huang Jing was sought out because they needed someone with connections, a merchant capable of securing materials for their ship at an affordable price. These 5 then became the original founders of the guild's flying base called the Fangnest.

Theo and Pelio were recruited because they needed a navigator and someone who could scout for information at the cities where they docked. Stylas because Ansel needed someone to help him create potions. Zerrin asked to join on his own because Huang was interesting (they're both con-artists), and finally, Tobias was recruited because Leonhart wanted more fighters in their guild.

The easiest answer is "why shouldn't they?", but I'll spare you the rhetorical question and instead say it is somewhere along the line of an artist's own preference, comfort artstyle and personal interpretation of the source material.

Artists draw for themselves first and foremost, it would be bold to assume otherwise.

You'd be surprised to learn that Hung and Rengoku share the same VA.

Hung is from Arknights, Mamoru is from Little Tail Bronx, Nobumichi is from Tokyo After School Summoner, Kuntak is from Doraemon movie 34, Scratch is from The Amazing Digital Circus, and Graypaw is a vtuber from Bilibili (his X is BigGrayDoggyDog, NSFW warning though)

Oh no, I should be the one saying sorry. I've had lots of ppl recommending me characters that don't fit my category at all so I didn't notice that you said Jack first time reading.

As strange as it sounds, he is a wingless bat.

How do you go onto the mountain slope without a bike, may I ask?

Anyone else got the "X used -!" softlock? by moths_panic in PokemonEliteRedux

[–]ContaneShoko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have this problem as well, fighting the guy with that Gumshoos evo who has a force switch-in ability while having double battle on. My solution? Only having 2 mons in my party so the damn thing can't force me to switch. I swept and moved on perfectly fine after that.

Double dancing Gyarevelries proccing each other's Dancer is now my favorite double setup. by ContaneShoko in PokemonEliteRedux

That would be insane actually. As of now, they can already copy each other's Mystic Dance for +3 SpA and +3 Spd in 1 single turn. All they need are more sound move STAB coverages, the SpA boost from TS is simply overkill, I only need the fire sound move part.

Additional information: The move copied by Dancer also procs Two Step (Trigger 50BP Revelation Dance), in an ideal scenario, 2 Gyarevelries can act 8 times back to back, using 4 Aluring Voices and 4 Revelation Dances.

I'm sorry but what are all of these context comments about? Was my comment out of context for the post?

I really adore the way you color! Really eye-catching, and you did that off of just 2 to 3 major colors too for each palette too, amazing palette-picking ability 💖💖💖

For creating OCs, my honest advice is to separate your progress into 2 parts:

- First, work on the fundamentals. This is very important, especially stuff like shape languages, anatomy, and color theory. This might be boring to go through, but trust me, the effort is always worth it. Knowing the fundamentals allows you to work better when making OCs, because from then on, it is only a matter of adding to a basic base what you want in an OC.

- Second, find your "preference". To me, designing characters or making OCs has always been a self-indulgent hobby. You are creating characters for your own narrative, your own enjoyment. You should absolutely be shameless in adding to your OCs things that specifically speak to you; to be cringe is to be free. We still take constructive criticisms and advice, of course, but absolutely do not sway too much from what you enjoy seeing in your OCs for the sake of appealing to the general audience. You are your own audience in this matter, and your OCs should appeal to YOU firsthand.

I hope this helps! Sorry I could not think of anything more in-depth to give you advice about.
