And thus ends another year's celebration. As much as it's the best in the year for me, at least it has a lot to remember it by.

Starsector 0.98a is out! Fight new enemies, acquire new ships and weapons, and much more, featuring new story missions, autosave, a revamped combat simulator and Codex, and other UI improvements!

Having a grand time with friends, setting up characters for the game from @viceandviolence.bsky.social
I, however, suffered some horrible dice rolls!

There's perks tp starting with -6 smarts

One fuckup removal, and I'll be almost as good at casting as anyone else! 3-6 is one, and 1 is OK by me!

And that's it for the daily post- Everything else I've got, it's not mine to share.

Maybe you'll see someone of mine out in the wilds- I'm always open for a shoutout. Until the next time i think of a use for this platform:

Have a great day, everyone.

Running out of things to post on this streak.

This here's a group photo of a bunch of friends. Four yinglets, and the poor human who needs to put up with us.
On the left is Eggbread- I haven't seen them on Social media, but they did great art.
Then Jrokko, Dessi, and Me on the right!
'M.' bottom.

This is The Acquisitioner- AKA Aquisite/Aqui
A slugcat of the extra slippery/slimey variety, adoring coffee, hoarding and using tools, and getting people what they need to face the day.

Artist found at:
www.artstation.com/emanuelpanta...
character concept: Me!

This is San Kun, Ninety-first of her name, the real title is a bit more complex and arbitrary than that. As a full-body-prosthesis, little remains of the Avali she once was.

Artist is the wonderful @nelloshep.bsky.social , who brought to life the imagery in a way I'd only dreamed of.

This lovely piece is fresh and completed just yesterday by the amazing www.artstation.com/emanuelpanta... .
It took a great deal of work, and I don't think this would have turned out as good as it has without his care and effort!

The dragon's name is Mycelia, and it is a concept entirely my own!

This is Anki! She's a death's head moth, and an EoD engineer. Commed from the wonderful @nelloshep.bsky.social , who is always a joy to hire.

One more of Gelly. Shoutouts to Scavstation! I miss y'all.

Meet Gelly. My Yinglet OC! She wears a big coat, and her boots too big for her got-damn feet. The gloves, too- but she makes it work. Avid botanist, she loves the sound of listening to rapidly growing plants, Especially when people are trying to look for her!

See out-of-placers for yinglet origin.

There was a time I was thinking of making up a special set of armour for my Lucario.

I do like how this draft came out, but in the end, I just like the classics too much

This one was made by, 'redscarfguy' on tumblr, years ago. We got along well, but I stopped talking with them due to ideological differences.

If you happen to see this- as much as I hope you've changed, I wish I'd been gentler with how I departed.

This image is representative of me and my BFF!

This one was a gift, comm'd blind by someone else- but despite the artistic liberties, I adore it all the same. All art you get of something of your own creation is special in it's own way- but a gift of it just has that much more.

Another day, another image. This one was made by a close friend for me- thought we've since fallen out of contact. It's still one that brings joy to me when I see it. There's something about the expression that really catches me!

Feeling like sharing the art I've gotten over the years. Gonna do a slow burn release.

I'll provide accreditation where I can- but some of these people I've lost track of over the last twenty years of being Auraknight

To start us off: An old piece, from someone on tumblr!
This was the first gift.

I suppose a first post is warranted. I'm not a big 'Social media' person- but if you're seeing this, I hope your day gets a little bit better.
