Here's some screenshot dumps I wanted to put because some are fun, and also illustrate our evermost favorite bugs.

First - some new characters I made up:
A cute pair to RP with. I sort of juggled some of my existine non-played Syntax characters around and re-dressed them up a bit to do something fun with them.

If any is wondering what the "Red Dragons" is in refference to - I'm not telling - sept for some hints. That it maaaybe a skateboarder term, and I listen to XM/Sirius satilite radio in my new car.  You'll have to google it for yourself. Yeh - I made myself a faction. It's nothing serious, it's just purely for fun.  After all, that's what this game is all about ^.^, Last time i checked It's a game isn't it?  Red Dragons is open if anyone asks or has this dying desire to be a merv who loves to RP and needs a guild ... er Faction, maybe even if just to plop a baby alt in.  I don't care - it's just for fun.  I'm not taking it that seriously.

They are not Bro & Sis - they are actually a couple.  But more like a couple that have been together for a while as they seem to argue a lot.  But they seem to love each other.  Dynamic characters - FTW! You'll probly see them at Tabor West off to the side talking in Area to each other.  Or running around lvling.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This was some latenight Sleepwalker hunting. The thing about this pic is - I call it, "8 ball, corner pocket."  That is a traditional pool player's term. A dev for an ancient game called Drakkan  once said "simple trigonometry" (at a Sputnik meeting) - huh, yeh right simple trigonometry.  Actually, all it really IS, is just simple trigonometry at play here.  After all, games are just triangles - all 3D is triangles. Not that I'm good at math - I'm horrible at it, I'm just an artist.  BUUUUT, if any dev can figure out what might be going on - I'll give them cookies and kisses!  As this kind of pertains to this wonderful, rumored trick that some MxO player discovered about the Sleepwalkers.  My theory is after watching what was happening after our box drops and one of us pulling the Sleepwalker down: it's "8 ball, corner pocket." just a little simple, pathing trigonometry.  Hint: this sort of shows a correct angle perspective from my normal behind view.

But, also to the Devs - remember this simple rule: "Don't fix what is not broken".

I also figure this is why the gang npc's often are not "returning to home" like they should, lately.  You've all probly seen it - the gangs just grouped up in wierd places, standing in the middle of the street after following a player.  It's probably because they lost their pathing and can't return to home.  So they just stand there and group up on top of each other, loose their brains and can't attack back - good for us huh?  Simple trigonometry - "8 ball, corner pocket."

Here's some pics, and a little fun story with stuck NPCs;

Oh my!! 3 headed mutant Furies! Aaaahh!

This Bullet Harle Kin became lost and can't return to her group. Even thought they are just across the street there.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And this is an good example of the groupage of the gang npcs just standing out in the middle of the street - stuck.  They don't return to home, and won't attack if attacked or won't agro anything around them either. They litteraly are stuck or something. "Special Needs People"

Hello there, you seem to be lost. -- Dur, Can you help us? We is stuck.

Of course I can!  --- Uh, is she safe? What lvl are you? -- I'm uuhhh, lvl 2!

I can help you! I kill joo! --- Aaahh!She no lvl 2! Owchies!

Quiet you! you'll respawn where you are sposed' to be. ---  Aaaah! Big meanie!!

Fun Fun - lack of LEs? So what - you have to make up your own stuff.  I have imagination.

EDIT: double posted due to stupid forum hiccup

Morraeon does this regularly with drunk Demon Army guys she finds staggering around... though I have to add, by "helping them", she means killing them and eating their code. Of course this means she gets a second-hand buzz from them, which means having an elevated Reaper exile in Camon Central. I'll have to post pictures sometime soon...

Here's what I have been working on over the weekend. I've been sick, napping a lot - i wanted to get as many done as I could before going to work again so it's been kinda frustrating.  But - I got most of them done, only 2 more in the set to go - red and green!

Mindsweep - pulling a Neo move!

Zippy - and his Squirrel army!

Zippy the favorite kids cartoon of the Matrix!  He has magical red & blue acorns!

The mysteriously beautiful Dreamliner

Asna & Monet dancing the night away.

Asna wanted to be colored in a little Black Snakeskin dress. A black snakeskin dress would look pretty cool to go along with the other colors in the collection come to think of it. There isn't any black Sif Snakeskin dresses in the game, although I think I have seen white ones.  But - I'm sure that since Rarebit is sooooo fond of making everything so monotonously monochrome;   It probly wouldn't be hard to convince him to make a black version of a Sif Snakeskin Dress, which in this instance might be a good thing.

Soon as I get them done, in a day here: Lt O'Brien and RedLeopard

On the one paw, noone will ever take any of my RP seriously again...

On the other, those are some sweet, sexy pictures. 'Tis a good tradeoff.

OMG they are amazing work DH All of them fantastic!!

Thank you very much DH!!

AWSOME WORK DH!!! 

Mindsweeps is awesome XD

Thanks all!  I've got some more coming,RedLeopard, and some new ones down the line.  I am in the process of moving so - bear with me a little - but I'll be sure to get them.

Here's something to keep it over in the meantime:

This is a snippet from a day of BloodlustV's story-event line he has running. This day PixleKitty got to bait BloodlustV's targeted person by er ... a little flirtatious persuasion, some beers and slipping him a special EJP preventing poison-code "Mickey" when he wasn't looking.

So far this event line has been running extremely well!  It's small, but fun, BloodlustV and his fellow actors keep it very interactive, and it keeps us entertained.  Blood and his fellow ex-liaison, and other fellow actors and  other player RPers are some of the best ingame actors I have ever seen.  At the end of a meeting/event (how the story is carried) it seems like everyone is mostly pleased.  We seemed to walk away feeling like we accomplished something at the end of the meeting/event.  There wasn't a whole bunch of snarling at each other too much, getting frustrated with impossible lvls to beat or exclusion, or loudly grumbling - OMG This Sux!! And everyone seems to be on a relatively level playing field.  It's the way Events should be - should have been.  Course, I'm really partial to BloodlustV - but heh ... that's just me <3 <3

Here's some pix:


BloodlustV in his Combat outfit. He doesn't have the green hair anymore ... something my character Darkhawk actually helped him with (thru RP of course). Guess I have to change that drawing?  That's my toon PixleKitty - she's dressed up to play the "bait" to get Bloodlust's Targeted guy to drink the pill.  Seducing him into taking it with a little flirting at a bar, and over some beers was the plan - worked like a charm!  We are Merovingian after all.

Can you spot the ever mysterious floating beer bottles that reside in Club Janus?  I dunno if it's just my video card - or what ... but those beers just float in mid-air all the time.  Fizzy Lifting Drinks!!

Found Him!  After we raided the bar - he ran to the Mech archivist to pull a disappearing act to a construct for a grand finally battle for his life in 01.  Crazy guy ... awh ... no kiss before you go huh?  Figures.

In the end we got the dude - and everyone was actually fairly pleased.  There are 2 more targets still ... so who knows what facing them will bring.  Only next week will tell.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

uuuhhh ... how did THOSE get on there?!  I dunno ... *looks innocent*

Ookami, eh? I see what you did there.

'Japanese Wolf' - "Okami/Ookami" usually describes is the Honshu Wolf (Canis lupus hodophilax; Japanese: Nihon okami), The other endemic wolf of Japan was the Ezo Wolf (Canis lupus hattai; Japanese: Ezo-okami), also known as the Hokkaido Wolf, which occupied the island of Hokkaido in Japan. The Japanese Wolf was afforded a benign rather than malignant place in Japanese mythology and religion.  Unfortunatly all Japanese wolves are known to be extinct.

Okami the game - capcom

Animal - Wolf, Wiki

But I am deffinatly sure that's where the Monolith guys got the idea for our favorite Adolpha wolf girl.
And yeh ... heh, I deffinatly couldn't resist having her as my pet!

Basicly in Japanese - Ookami means: Wolf.  So - Ookami's name simply is ... Wolf. Hia Wolf!!

I found it odd when I looked thru the game files and found Ookami's texture paks n' stuff labled as: Ookama ... not Ookami ... strange.

She is probly my favorite character i'd have to say.  I like her ruthless agressiveness and claws and all that.  She's probly the most unique - like the lupines, also has that Feral Mood I always wanted.  Feral mood ftw!! Axe that ridiculous Umbrella mood and replace it with Feral - that always should have been done.  I hope a new designer gets around to giving us Feral Mood someday.  Anyway - Ookami was always my Favorite.

Working on a new costume for Fan Faire 09 - yes there will STILL be a Fan Faire 09' and I STILL plan on going.  This is going to be my premiere costume.  I'm going as Ookami!  Slight mods ... it's black, not brown.  Gloves with nails (more for convienience (glue on nails absolutely suck and are a pain in the azz!)  Hope to see/meet new faces at Fan Faire - probly will be a smaller bunch ... but maybe that's a good thing *shrugs*.  Anyway - Here's my idea for my dynamic costume!

I have it now because I was struck with this idea all of a sudden and just had to put it together.  Sometimes I'm like that, just get a wild idea and have to go do it - right then and there.

Yes that is my car, and yes the tattoos are real.  The fangs are not however.

Yey Ookami - Wolf!

Cool hehe  No fangs though?

O.O

Oh, it's on now.  That's an awsome costume DH!  Geez, with you and Mantra's Assassin one I'm going to have to start planning now...
