A fairy who is the most fairy like of them all Day 26: Sunny Milk Sunny is the pure, unadulterated concept of a fairy. Upbeat, energetic, and mischievous, all wrapped in a bright package and stapled onto the fairies of light. I like Sunny’s concept, and I don’t mind seeing her at all. However, it won’t change the fact that I really don’t care for the fairies that much, since they really aren’t my kind of character. I’m still always happy to see her though, as you always know some funky antics will happen when she shows up.

Do you know what is one thing I miss from the old days of the internet? OCs, Original Characters. For all the cringey self-inserts, Donut Steel jokes and recolors of Sonic the Hedgehog, there was a charming innocence to them. Most were a child or teen’s attempt at creating something new for a world they loved. Some did not fit the source material, but felt genuinely good enough to have their own story. Others fit flawlessly. For some reason though, I seldom see people talk about their Original Characters today. I’m not sure if it’s gone out of vogue with the rise of multiplayer games or I just don’t know where to find them. Touhou itself I have seen few OCs for, though I am sure there were a number of them in the 00s. The material is ripe for creativity, and there are OCs I have seen referenced as characters in fan games. In fact, I am willing to bet that all of you had an OC at some point. In honor of the innocence of youth and the joys of creation, let’s play a game. Post a character meant for the world of Gensokyo that you or someone else made. Write a little bit about them, their backstory and motivation. Any stories about them which make you proud or make you cringe. I’ll start, even if mine is a little unusual. A few months ago, I was having burnout from tabletop games, which have been largely the same in the West for more than a decade. D&D makes up the lion’s share of the game space, and most other big games imitate it. To shake me out of my rut, I had a group of friends on Discord pick out an indie or fan game they enjoyed the look of and we would run it. On the list was Danmaku Yuugi Flowers. A Touhou fan game I had put on the list for how different it was. My game was set in a homebrew world, but I wanted the characters to be authentic to Touhou's style. Starting my slide into the fandom. Naturally, a tabletop game needs NPCs. My first creation for the world was a vampire named Hope Black. I wanted to give her a wholesome, Midwest country girl vibe. Though I also designed her to be an inversion of Remilia. Instead of opulent glamor, she has a homely charm. She lives alone in a log cabin, and keeps a farm on her own. She’s also one of the guardians of the land, who I really should come up with a name for. Though she is still new to the role and uncertain in herself. I wish I could tell you more about her and what the others thought. Sadly my workload at my day job has spiked again, keeping us from playing. So now I am just left with this character concept and a doodle I made over a lunch break.

Ladies and gentlemen! Our fair land is beset by twin beasts! Monsters beyond the scope of any Youkai! These maledictions are the horrid twins of Apathy and Boredom. Together, these foul menaces have cast a pall upon the land, and subjected you to untold hours of joylessness. No more, sisters and sisters! I am declaring a one-princess crusade against Eientei’s decline! With your help, we can slay these terrors, and give you minutes of entertainment whenever you log on. Join me in my righteous quest, and restore greatness to our land! That said, I am sadly a newbie here, and haven’t had the chance to learn what appeals to the Moriya Shrine’s palette. Outside of ‘2hu’, ‘cute girls’ and possibly 'dank memes', that is. So, I am throwing everything at the wall and seeing what sticks. If you see an idea you like, or even have a suggestion of your own, post it down below! If one of these has enough interest, I will run it for your viewing pleasure. An original character of your own creation, or a favorite from the series are both options for the games below. Just make sure its a character who fits the idea, and who you will enjoy playing. Grim Queen’s Fantasy Genre: Adventure Dreamy Café Genre: Slice of Life Illusionary Nirvana Genre: 4X Strategy Flan-Chan's Delightful Quest Genre: Slice of Life/Adventure Become Fumo: War for Home Genre: Adventure

These are fun, do we vote which path to pursue or smthing?

Revived

Its a role play interest check. Eientei is meant to be the Roleplay center, but there has not been an active one in months. I think we should change that, and revive the fun of play-by-post roleplaying games. The sections I have in spoilers are different ideas for roleplaying games. Each with different concepts and tones, to try and gauge what you guys would enjoy. I used to be huge into forum-based roleplay a decade ago. So I am alright playing for any level of experience, so long as we have enough people interested. Have you ever been part of a roleplaying game before? Either tabletop or pbp forum roleplay?

Here on an off-day. David Meece--one of the most underrated CCM artists of the 1980s. Few musicians in his industry (or beyond, imo) reached the same levels of creativity in their arrangements. These two songs are among his best.

So, as a fellow Brazilian, i love soccer (yes, the stereotype is real sometimes) But well, i was scrolling on youtube till i found a video from Suwawako covering a fangame about Touhou and soccer, and i'd like to know what you all think about it (at least for me, it is really funny but at the same time, it got my attention and made me want to download it) And yes, i know the world cup ended already but i think isn't so late to talk about this game, right? =') Anyway, if anyone already played it or wanna share it's opinion about it, feel free to do it! Btw, idk if anyone already talked about this game here so, sorry if someone already did! That's the video i'm talking about, if anyone would like to take a look about it: And if you wanna see a gameplay video without someone talking, there's it:
