About Me
I'm a transgender demi/gay man from WV, and I'm proud of it!I was born and raised in WV, same with my mom, and my dad is from Scotland! My scottish and appalachian heritage influences my work just as much as it does my dialect, so if you see me using a mish-mash of terms and phrases, that's probably whyI'm currently a year on testosterone, as of November 18th (2023), and I've been out as trans for about 6 or 7 years now, and out publicly for around 3!My partner and I have been together for 4 years now, (5 on 11/20/24), as well!I'm curretly seeking an ADHD diagnosis at the moment! Not officially diagnosed just yet but I've had enough other people with ADHD tell me to get screened so I finally cavedI play the Viola, a bit of the Ocarina (though I haven't in a while now), Kalimba/Thumb Piano, Harmonica, and a bit of Ukulele, but most of those are by ear because I can only read bass cleff lolMy primary focus is in character art, but I tend to dabble in background art as well, along with animation even though it's not my major anymore!

Bound To Be / Color Horned Demons
Bound to Be takes place in a circle of Hell that's ruled by the son of Lucifer, where all demons below him are sorted into social classes based on the colors of their horns.
Red, Black and Grey are in the higher class, orange through violet in the commoner/middle class, and white, pink and brown being in the lowest.The story focuses on Mairi, an orange-horned commoner demon, and Ascelin, a white-horned pet.
The Color-Horned Demons universe has been a worldbuild done mostly entirely by Pepin and I's friend Blu, with the occasional lore/worldbuilding suggestion from the two of us.The majority of the story has been built around roleplays with the three of us, and Pepin and I have been looking for ways to share it!Pepin and I have had OCs in this universe for about 5 or 6 years now, and the OCs are very special to us both, with rich lore behind pretty much every character that appears in our RPs!

Important dialogue is translated in the descriptions of the post!MumbleClanGen currently follows the 10 clan founders,

FLASHBULB
Flashbulb is an 18+ Horror Visual Novel.
It focuses on a college student (that's you!) and two of their classmates, Casmir, a veterinary student, and Arthur, a journalism major, during one of the worst winters the city has seen in years.
With the students snowed in together, and cabin fever setting in, it's hard to tell if something will blossom, or if tensions will rise.
Flashbulb is my current passion project! It's very slow going at the moment, as we're still in the planning phase, but it's a collaborative project under our little group:
ConstellationConsumers!With coding by myself, art by Pepin and myself, and music by Moss, the game is still in very early development, and we don't have a whole lot to show at the moment!We intend to have the game be priced at a $15 minimum (that's $5 for each of us!), but we don't have a planned release date for a demo yet, let alone the full game!
Seem interesting either way?

WARRIORS - The Silent Omen
+
Warriors Clan Culture Rewrites
Warriors: The Silent Omen is a fan project of the Warriors Series by Erin Hunter.Silent Omen follows 4 apprentices from the four clans, ThunderClan, RiverClan, ShadowClan and WindClan, freshly into their apprenticeships and ready to see what the future holds for them and their clans.
Minnowpaw, Deweypaw, Daisypaw and Thornpaw must navigate clan life while being the subjects of a prophecy that just so happens to mention their mentors.
Silent Omen is a work in progress at the moment, as most of my attention has been going into re-writing the way the clans' cultures function!It takes place in the forest territory, not within the current timeline, of course, and does more to differentiate the clans than it being "ThunderClan, ThunderClan but Wet, ThunderClan but Fast and ThunderClan but Evil", with actual differences between the clans, their beliefs, their practices and their traditions, rather than just differences in their menus.It also delves a bit into the divine, limiting how StarClan can interact with cats, adjustments to the codes of warriors and medicine cats, and explains how many traditions came to be.It's gotten a bit out of hand, and is beginning to turn into an AU of the actual warriors timeline as well!
This project isn't ready for sharing yet
MAJOR - Game Art and Design
I just recently switched my major from 2D animation to Game Art and Design, as I wasn't finding as much enjoyment in animation as I expected to.I'm still very new to the endeavor of game design, but the majors here overlap quite a bit, so I'm hoping that it won't be too shocking of a switch for me once I get properly into the swing of game design classes!Currently, on my own time, I've learned a good bit of Ren'Py for visual novels, and I've learned a bit of Python through fiddling with open source games!
PETS
My parents and I have 2 cats at home, Smudge and Beret (there's a link to their instagram in this section!)
Smudge (mostly white) is an Ex-Feral who we took in after he was living in an old shed in our yard, it was pretty easy to socialize him since we found him as a kitten, but it took him a while to adjust to being inside, and for my parents to be comfortable with him inside. After keeping him in for one winter, though, now the only time he goes out is for his nightly patrol of the yard before bed.Beret (mostly black, usually shortened to Bear/Bere), has been an indoor cat her entire short life, she's a year old, nearly two (her bear-thday is August 8th, 2022) and she is the worst behaved cat (/affectionate) I have ever interacted with, but we're working on her behavior, she just seems to enjoy jumping on literally anything that she's not supposed to be on
I'm an Honorary cat dad to my boyfriend's 3 cats, Itty Bitty, Bee and Mr Jonah Magnus. They're all born to his family's colony cats
(and all three are spayed and neutered before you get onto us about it, thank you very much.)Bee is the eldest of the three, she's very small (so much smaller than you expect,) nearly 4, and she has enough cattitude for an entire household. She absolutely loves temptations treats and hates being held but she puts up with it, just complains about it.Itty Bitty is the second oldest and Bee's little sister. Itty likes to sit in laps no matter where the lap is, whether it's the couch, the table, a bed, or the toilet. She's very talkative and very friendly.Jonah is Itty's son, named after Jonah Magnus from the magnus archives, due to his Violently Green Eyes and staring problem. He's the only survivor of his litter (at no fault of ours), and he is definitely
a character. His favorite activities include Screaming, getting into places he absolutely should not, and coming into Pepin's room at 2 in the morning absolutely sopping wet despite it being bone dry outside.
I also had two rabbits who both unfortunately passed in the past years (2021 & 2023), but lived to be 8 and 13, which I think is impressive enough to share!
Ninja, our 8 year old, was very jumpy for his whole life but overall very sweet, he loved to bite things a lot but he was still very calm and loved blueberries. Unfortunately he had a tumor that he was just too old for us to treat, but we made sure he was comfortable and spoiled rotten for all the time we had him.Pinky, our 13 year old, was so very sweet, I was his favorite and he would get excited whenever I'd be near him, and he'd lick and chin my hand all the time, his favorite treats were parsley and bananas.
The vet mentioned quite a few times how Pinky was the healthiest albino rabbit she'd ever seen, which I take great pride in. He took a bit of a decline in the week before he passed but he passed peacefully on the way to the vet.
