Howdy everybody. Lately you've probably noticed some illustrations that are titled with "Revivified" before the name of them. That is because I am here to finally elaborate on that.

I am actually writing a book! As of right now, I can't say for certain when it'll be complete, but I am currently on chapter 3! I started conceiving the plot and timeline it at the beginning of the year and officially began writing the first draft midway through April.

Revivified is a horror story with a "Wes Craven's New Nightmare," premise that sees the struggling character artist, Niko, facing the troubles of trying to get accepted into college, only for his failures to result in him accidentally releasing an evil threat from an artifact gifted to him that go out to attack him and his closest friends. The supernatural threats attacking them are evil entities who are taking on the appearance of Niko's characters, effectively bringing them into the real world as mutilated, blighted doppelgangers.

Here is the current blurb for it and I hope you are intrigued by it!

-----

Wronged of the chance to follow his destined career once again, concept artist and character designer Niko Myers struggles to achieve an equilibrium in his art and the passion he engrossed into it but after one turmoiled episode that ended with him throwing in the towel, his work is given one more chance to breathe in a new light. Though he will be soon educated, that desire for a dream can mangle itself into a supernatural nightmare.

An ancient evil has awoken and they favor his imagination. A scornful force plagued by rooted desires are using his creations as a gateway into the real world and they are here to feed off of the blood and wilting passion of the discouraged artist and those involved. Blighted by vegetation and an otherworldly malice; they have been revivified. All of them, except for one.

-----

Here's some basic information regarding the story and I hope you guys will enjoy it when I eventually publish it! My goal was to finish writing it this year and potentially publish it either later in the year or next year.

• The story will be entirely self contained. No ending cliffhangers.
• At the moment, it is estimated to be 300-500 pages long.
• The book will contain illustrations, either ones I've already made or brand new ones made exclusively for it.
• The story will contain horror elements and dodgy tension to make the reader uneasy and uncomfortable.
• The story will have adult topics, jokes, language, and themes.
• It is unclear how many chapters it will have at the moment. Estimate is maybe 20.
• The story will be told in the 3rd person from Niko with occasional narration from RJ's perspective as well.

Hope you guys enjoy the illustrations I post about it and are intrigued by the concept and story!

I dont use Newgrounds enough to know this but I wonder if there is some way to share actually stories you have written. Short stories, actual literature you conceived and wanna share. It's the only thing I haven't seen be possible with Newgrounds unless you abuse the BLOG section like I'm debating doing.

I wonder if there is something else that can be done to share stories or if at all. I would love to share some of my original short works as I do have a knack of writing small little novellas occassionally. Would be cool.

it's my birthday today fellas. I'm 22 years old now. i can already feel my bones reach their capacity and I aint even officially in my mid 20's yet

I should of never drawn NSFW lmao because now that I know that I'm capable of drawing it, I have moments where I'm sitting here just going "mmm..." and debate if I should put to illustration of what I am thinking lmao.

Being an artist is scary, kids. With great power comes great responsibility and holy fuck is that responsibility hard sometimes when you know that you are capable of achieving some things with the power that you hold LMAO.

I have made the final decision to include NSFW here on my Newgrounds account. You will not see it often as I barely make any, but still, the decision was made.

I have a level of criteria for comfort when it comes to lewding my characters that I respect myself and currently, "The Construct Lands" is the only one of my passion series that checks all those boxes for comfort.

My Criteria List of Comfort Goes as Follows:

• No Explicit Content of any Under Aged Characters (Fucking Obviously.) This Includes Aging Them Up! (That's Fucking Weird.)
• No Explicit Content of Characters From My Own Media Featuring a Child Protagonist/Have an Important Role.
• No Explicit Content of Characters From My Own Media Featuring Multiple Underaged Characters in it's Setting.
• No Explicit Content of Characters That are Still in High School! This Even Includes of Age Characters!

Dodge This has too many under aged characters present for any level of comfort of lewding any adult character. Yes, there are of age characters, but again, the entire series is surrounded by children characters because of the setting and one of them is a protagonist. So, no.

Spitfire is a no as well, simply because of Liam. Every single character in that series is of age, including Spit (despite being completely asexual) except for Liam who is a child protagonist, rendering any form of NSFW of adult characters in it completely discomforting.

Code-V is actually a very close bet, because every character is of age including Vark who is ambiguously adult, but what really killed the comfort was that they are still in high school. Yes, they are 18 year old seniors. Yes they are approaching graduation, and yes, there are no child characters present at all, but simply because they are still currently in school, I wanted to play it safe and not risk it.

The Construct Lands is the only personal series of mine that actually ticks the criteria boxes completely. All characters are 20 and over. There are no children protagonists and nobody is in any form of setting that is surrounded by underaged characters. They all live in the wild in some compacity.

Why am I saying this? Well, to ground my standards and comfort about this subject, mainly. But also to state for general NSFW pieces of my characters if I make any more and if by some odd-ball possibility that people see my characters and for whatever reason, do the same, I do not care. Go ahead so long as it isn't problematic and you do not force it into my face lol. Just be gentle.

TLDR: Don't expect NSFW from me, often. Other people can draw NSFW of them if they wish, just be mindful of my comfort with adult characters from other projects of mine. "The Construct Lands" is the only one you dont have to be shy with.

Alright, I believe I am all caught up. Christ that took forever to do. All of the important pieces that I wished to have on my account have finally been added, minus a few animations, merely because I'm only limited to 2 animations a day.

But now comes the true question that I'm still yet to answer with commitment... do I share my NSFW art here? Hmmm now that is a question I need to think on.

Ok, as I progress through catching up with my art, I may as well info dump some things on my original characters along with the worlds they are in just for some clarity and context as to what is canon to what and what exactly is happening within the world they are present in. Maybe I'll make some separate blogs that go into more deep detail about them, but for now I'll just drop the basics as discretely as I can.

"Dodge This" - Dodge This is a series that takes place within a highschool of Haunatuning High featuring Clancy Rogers and Whitney Skerla. Whitney Skerla is a 16 year old, extremely competitive dodgeball leader, adamant on improving her team and her way of doing that is persuading Clancy, an 18 year old relaxed, apathetic senior who just so happened to beat her and her own teammates at a game due to his incredible reaction time, only Whitney's 'persuading' is more physical than Clancy would like. Upon denying her request to join her team and to reconsider the offer, Whitney didn't take no for an answer and commanded her teammates to chase after him in an attempt to force him to join through these chases. Using his precise intuition and surprising flashy movements, Clancy ran throughout the school halls, dodging hallway attractions, passing by students and a very aggressive dodgeball team. Ever since this first interaction, which was shut down by both Clancy's friends and a teacher, the two held grudges to one another, with Whitney competitively antagonizing him frequently and Clancy growing resentful and judgmental, trying to shy away from the spiteful interactions, ironically resulting in constant interactions, events, and mishaps to occur. To think that this all happened merely because Clancy simply said "No," to Whitney.

"Code-V" - Code-V features 2 specific characters, Cody and Vark. Cody is a senior highschooler rapidly approaching graduation along with his childhood friend, Aliza. However, a roadblock is thrown into his path after a vacation trip to a video game industry goes sour. After admittedly sneaking into a classified section of the building where a WIP of a game is being play tested, Cody's gameplay is met with the consequence of having Vark, the villain of the in development game, gaining sentience and wanting freedom, invade his body, permanently bonding them together into a symbiotic being. What makes it even worse is that Vark isn't just a villain, he is a DANGEROUS one. He thrives off violence, death, and destruction. Something that Cody doesn't want. After this vile intrusion of his life, both of them come to terms in having to work together and admittedly, Vark allows Cody to have the say on what Vark is and isn't allowed to do, if he can help himself, as it was Cody's body and world that Vark decided to invade to escape the confines of his video game prison.

"The Construct Lands" - The Construct Lands is my biggest and most passionate personal series and universe I have been developing for the past maybe 2 years, featuring Rook as the center protagonist of it all. The Construct Lands is philosophical story masked underneath a beautiful alternate reality/universe that thrives off my creative influence, completely mixed together in a complex yet perfectly functioning ecosystem. It serves as a sort of hostile paradise and is full of both physical creatures and characters reminiscent of stories and of original creation and traditional fauna living in the corresponding locations and districts. Its entire existence is of thought out original fauna, flora, and rules with some remnants of traditional world elements but engaged in a brand new environment that sits on the edge of fantasy, but with a hint of reason and logistics, or sometimes outright unexplained. Stuck on the verge of feeling like a fantasy, but still grounded in reality. A world and universe that feels like a dream, one that remains lucid and yet that you cannot wake up from. It exists due to my sheer creative fun of making my own entire universe, and the Construct Lands thrives on it through my influence.

"Spitfire" - Spitfire stars 2 brotherly characters, one of whom is a robot found and repaired after years of neglect in an abandoned garden shed. Liam Cunningham is a gifted robotics student and frequently tinkers in electronical experimentation and general robotics. This comes in extra handy coincidence when a yard sale shopping spree with his mom leads him to discovering an abandoned, sentient robot in the shed of one of the yards sales. After admittedly stealing him, Liam repairs him, even giving him a brand new design to look more appealing, even with the robots aid in his new looks. It was because of this, Spit was brought to true light and properly introduced to Liam's mother, who, although skeptical at first, opened up to having this older brother to Liam. Though, the school now hears of Liam's triumph and actually wishes for Spit to visit some day. This could be fine on it's own, but there is one small problem. Spit overheats. A lot and extremely badly. This was one of the things Liam couldn't really repair but only work around with the appendages that hang behind Spits head. But even still, this overheating can be damaging as once his body reaches critical on how much overheat it can support, all of that built up energy gets discharged into one, damaging shockwave.

That about covers the basics of my main series' and what my art circulates around them. I hope this gives enough context that it is easily digestible, but also gives enough explanation to what happens within these worlds and stories.

Alright, I'm gonna be catching up with all of my art by dumping it all here. Oh god this is gonna take a while. I'll be starting off with my original passion series "The Construct Lands" first before then sharing other originals I have made. The Construct Lands is the biggest out of all of them currently and I would rather get a head start on it. I got fauna, characters and original finished pieces to share so this will be a little bit.

Hi I've had this account for a few months and only now am I using it, lol.

Anyways, howdy. I'm Rook. I'm an artist who frequently draws his own OC's too often instead of other media because I am too invested into my own bullshit. I just really like talking about my own concepts alright lol.

Anyways uuuh if you want original content, here I am.
