The Only Universe They Came Home ft. Campfire Song

Tumblrites, the hour has come for us to practice one of our most sacred rituals.

ETA: Please full view, tumblr squished them ;A;

I don't know how, but I was brain blasted by this idea this morning and needed to make it real - so may I happily present to you all:-

The Shovel-Nosed Rockster

Small, hamster sized critters native to Brittle Hollow.

They feed specifically on minerals, earth and grit, getting their nutrients from the ground, using their shovel-like noses to dig for their favourite minerals.

Their "armour" is formed throughout their life and is entirely dependent on the minerals a rockster will ingest. So, if you have a rockster consistently ingesting pyrite and fluorite, their armour will reflect this.

Native rockster armour is formed of the basaltic crust and the gravity crystals found on the underside. They also exert their own mini gravity field because of this, allowing them to safely traverse the underside of Brittle Hollow without being sucked into the Black Hole.

Rockster pups do not venture to the underside until they have sufficient armour, so they rely on their parents to bring them good crystal snacks.

Maybe the Nomai could have kept some as pets?

I hope you love them as much as I do! I had a blast drawing them this morning, hehe! Feel free to make your own variants with credit!

Hello everyone! I have been working on this project for many, many months, if not a whole year by now -- but it is finally here! And so I present to you yet another documentation project:

The Outer Wilds Lore Map aims to be one big interactive web page containing as much of the OW lore as possible -- from physics data about how big (small, really) the planets are, to obscure fun facts about lore that could have been but was removed or retconned at some point, to whether or not Chert knows what Ash Twin looks like without its sand!

I have already spent a very long time writing it all in the tutorial and the coding itself, so I will rather let the images speak for themselves here. All I will say is that I have done everything I could in order to make it as intuitive and comfy an experience as possible. The lore is very lacking for now, and filling it will take a while -- but hey, wouldn't it be fun to do it with friends? If only in order to have people nag at me for all the typos, or if you disagree with something.

You want to help out? Just curious? If you're interested, there is a Discord server that you can join in order to give your thoughts on where this is going!

Founders of the Outer Wilds Geological Survey Mohs & Lari

Outer Wilds hosts a story like no other; one that spans eons and is pieced together across planets. However, you may not have noticed the subtler story beneath the one we know and love - the one told through the rocks that paint the world. What rocks occur where, their shapes, colouration, and orientation, can all give an indication to a broader geological history.

Here, we aim to survey the Outer Wilds and explore what the rocks say about mineralogy, volcanic activity, major historical and geological events, and even planetary formation! From the geyser mountains of Timber Hearth, to the labyrinthine caves of Ember Twin, to the floating islands of Giant's Deep - We plan on exploring all major sites of interest and come up with our best explanations of the geology and what it means for the history of the Outer Wilds solar system.

This blog is run by @merrydock and @dekkiidan. We are both huge fans of geology (huge enough to have studied it and have professional experience in this field!). We just couldn't help but read the rocks of Outer Wilds to see what we could learn, and we hope to share our notes with all of you to inspire you to take a better look at the geology that surrounds you, too!
