White: A lot of Big Goods tend to wear white and it meant purity in Ancient Egypt so I used it for the first outfit. It could be from when he was still alive way back when or as a present from the other exhibits. Like, it could be a way to represent moving on with his afterlife & getting to be the Pharoah he never really got to be even if it's resigned to a museum.
The orange outfit leans more into the movie but simplified so it'll be easier to animate. Think of the Return of Kahmenrah cartoon on Disney+. In fact it was that inspired me to draw these in the first place! To see what Ahk would look like if he was in the show.
Revenant: i have an idea that since the tablet is poeered by moonlight then what will happen if it tapped into the darker side of the moon. Like, if ahkmenrah gets really angry or he's left eeth no choice he has to activate a potentially lethal spell at the cost of his life. It could also be an altenrate design, like when wakes up and his mummfied traits carry over. His chest bears of the scar from the night his brother killed him. I was inspired by the Fright Sight from Mummies Alive.
Ahkmenrah is a heroic character so lots of triangles and squares! Not too muscular but enough to show that HE is the leader. The snake on his crown is shaped like a heart showing his caring side. I chose white for the under skirt since it balanced it out.
The rings on his neck piece I just combined them for simplicity's sake and reduced the amount of patterns.
I gave up drawing the eyes but theyre the same hazel-green Rami Malek has.

*sits in chair and looks at the camera* So you made an OC for a childhood show...
I've been back on my nostalgia shit and now i made a self insert for - of all things - tommy the choo choo. She's for both it and Shining Time Station, since i tend to mix the 2 together in my headcanons.
So the story is I planned on visiting my sister in Durham but end up boarding the wrong train to shining time valley. While staying there I met its cast, including a certain magical blond. This may after TATMR, or could be different events from the canon. But I start to fall in love with the cozy town and its history. That and Im the only other adult besides stacey and Burnett who can see the conductors. Eventually i do visit my sister but come back to visit as kuch as I can. Finally i decided to quit my job and move in at the local motel to work in bookkeeping.
After I help stop PT Boomer and his gang from stealing Lady, and further adventures, I end up joining Shining Time full time as a conductor/guardian.
Now I have several designs: one of them is green and Im called the Green conductor, as a refernce to the line "green for glory" and the cut song "Girl in Green." I want to form something of a trip with the conductor cousins (blue) and stacey (red).
Other outfit is a maroon-pink get up inspired by Lady. I also carry a sword because im the brawler. Yes I do like figthing. No i do not need to see a therapist. And since I have a connection to Lady I want to stick to a victorian theme, like by day i dress up to talk to visitors about the history of the valley and Lady's creation. Third outfit is a mix of the two.
Create a fabulous steampunk outfit with elements inspired by late Victorian fashion. Mix and match corsets, bustles, goggles and more!

Hello! I hope I'm not a bother but I was wondering if you could clarify for me something I think I missed, do the Beast Hunter's Hunting Beasts riff on their own, or do they only act when you use thunderbolts? I'm setting up a solo play so sadly I don't have other players to ask their opinions. Either thank you in advance for answering or deep apologies for being annoying,
nah its no worries ask away--do you have the latest pdf? The Hunting Beasts are allies, which means they have their own Riffs! They can do all the Basic Techniques of a Kadungganan, but they're pretty low POS which means they can get knocked out pretty easily (less so in lower Legends, more commonly in higher Legends, but by then you have access to a boat load more Thunderbolts to heal them and move them during your riff.
Purelily i highly believe they just close friend. Because of platonic always end with romance it also affected reality too so everytime there's a friendship between male & female people think they must be a lover or couple never once oh they must be friend
I feel bad cuz I shouldn't hate purelily but i don't have much love for it anyways - romantically at least. I very much prefer them to be friends and stay that way. Everything does not to be a romance (plus imma little jelly)

Hi Grits! I've literally never watched Xiaolin Showdown in my life, but because I'm bored and curious, could you pls explain how Chase was ruined in Chronicles?
Where do I even start?
Okay, anyone who's been on my blog recently have seen me talk shit about Xiaolin Chronicles. Well tonight Im going to talk even more shit! 😁 this time about a character that ive had developed a fictoromantic interest in: Chase young. But this isnt about my selfship, this is about how this pathetic excuse of a reboot wrecked him!
So sit back and crack a cold one as I tear Lizard Breath a new one!
Chase was one of the most complicated characters in the show. He was evil, unashamedly so, but he also had a sense of honor. He was calm and calculating. You never really knew what his next move was. From his first appearance in the s2 episods "Master Monk Guan" you could tell he was going to be a formidable threat in future episodes. And formidable he was, he did NOT step off their necks after that first meeting!
Perhaps his most intriguing aspect of his character is his relationship with omi, a sort of palpatine and anakin dynamic that wasn't as creepy and pedophilic as his relationship with Shadow/Willow/whatever the fuck her name is. He saw potential in Omi and wanted to train him and even after the whole "brainwashing omi to get him on the side of evil" plan didnt go as planned they still kept an amicable relationship.
Chase is by no means a saint but he keeps his word and treats his opponents with respect. Even when training Jermaine, he had no hard feelings towards him after he quit because it was simply another part of a larger scheme. While he wasnt as bombastic as jack and wuya, he had a couple of quirks like reading Evil Housekeeping during dinner and his reactions to Jack's antics! He was essentially the Comically Serious of the show.
Then Chronicles had to screw everything up!!
In showdown, he became evil after hannibal bean exploited his desire to be the best by tricking him into drinking the Lao Mang Lone Soup. Chronicles retconned this to be Chase acting like a jealous incel because a mary sue dragon lady dumped him for his never before seen brother Eon. Seriously Eon? Where was Master Monk Guan? He was in Chase's eyes a rival and a big reason why he went bad, not because he got rejected by a girl!
Character designs in Showdown have simple and distinct silhouttes so they'll be easier to remember. Chase resembled a tough yet elegant warrior. The new design loses a lot of its elements making it too complex and boring at the same time
See how strong Showdown silhoutte is compared to Chronic Pain?
His lizard form was a total mess too! He rarely used his form but when he did you KNOW shit was about to hit the fan. He even managed to give Giant!Dojo a hard time! He looked like a dragon because he eats them and a lot of thought was put into making him look as badass as possible.
CHRONIC HEADACHE turned him into an overgrown iguana! He and Lute must be goin' to the same salon because what the hell is that haircut?? 😂
Dont even get me started on his CGI model that bitch is HIDEOUS. Even Beast Wars looks better and that show came out in the 90s! Also why are his spikes green shouldn't they be gold?
His personality also took a nosedive, from a Machiavellian schemer with larger designs to a generic villain who does bad things as the plot demands.
Chase rarely used shen gong wu because he had no need for then, even calling them magical toys. The only time he did use them was if he needed them for a larger goal. Chronic chase is obsessed with collecting them for no reason other than EEEEEVIL!
In Chronic's timeline Chase was always evil from the very beginning instead of having been a genuinely good person whose insecurities were preyed on by a shitstirrer vegetable. Even his voice doesnt do it for me. Usually I love David Kaye, but Chase is supposed to sound like he's in his early 20s because his entire function is around preserving his youth. By making him sound old it completely misses the whole point.
At one point, he interrupts a showdown to wager his good looks, and somehow doesnt lose them. First of all since when the did chase ever give a shit about his looks and number 2, he would never wager something so petty? He lost the showdown and didnt even lose his face? Well I guess you cant lose something you never had in the first place! 😂
Now we get to the really gross part.
SWEEEEET HOME ALABAMAH!
Now the idea of a regular sidekick and evil apprentice sounds good on paper. In the show he gets an ugly Mary Sue called Shadow that he created using his own rib in a hamfisted attempt to shove a parallel with Adam and Eve. But whereas the First Parents of The Bible were explicitly designed to be spouses by a higher power, he created shadow to be little more than a servant (and she had a baby form) which makes their power dynamic completely imbalanced! The scenes where they hit on each other and hiss flirtatiously is so out of place, like dude THAT'S YOUR KID???HELLO??? ARE YOU EVIL OR ALABAMAN?
Shadow lacks none of the entertaining qualities that the other bad girls like wuya and katnappe had. She went to the same barber her husband-father and Lute goes to. The most frustrating part about it is she acts more like the original chase than the actual chase! Ugh! No wonder he acts more goofy in Chronic Pain, she stole his personality!
He also abuses her. Like, she was nothing but loyal to him yet he attacks her for making one snarky comment - the og chase did threatened people but never outwardly attacked them over something so petty - and with all this im mind they come off less as student and mentor and more like a domestic abuser and his victim. The Real chase ain't no saint but he wasnt a creepy old man either! Eeeeeeeeeew!
The worse moment had to be the one episode where he lays an egg and he CRIES OVER it!
Un-freaking-BELIEVABLE!!!
At the end comes the most nonsense revelation - he and omi are related! And its never revisited again. I guess even the wrirers knew the convoluted this twist is since nowhere in showdown suggested chase and omi were family. If they were then they would be distantly related at best.
Can you just imagine making a show that is so boring, so atrocious, and so mind numbingly stupid, the only thing people remember it for is one episode and only because of how BAD it is?
The worst part is I can't recall a single significant thing Chase had done in Chronic Headache. In the original he had awesome moments like his duel with Master guan, the soccer match against the monks for omi's freedom, the three way battle between kimiko-disgused-as-jack hannibal bean, his partnership with wuya, getting between jermaine and omi's friendship, TAKING OKVER THE WORLD. What did he even do in Chronic Headache besides being a bigger dork than Doofenshmirtz and being the type of guy the latter would vaporize?
NOTHING! HE DID JACK SPICER SHIT IN CHRONICLES DESPITE HAVING MORE APPEARANCES THAN IN THE ORIGINAL!!
Hufff...huff....
Alright I think I got most of it out of my system. They say its better to vent now than holding it all in for it to explode later. I dont know why this show went the direction it did with Chase but as far as I am concerned he is not real, he is not a good version of a character and even on his own he is a terrible villain. He's an absolute insult to the chad Heylin Prince of Darkness and a reason why cartoon reboots get the unfortunate reputation they have.
And the sad part is since this is the only major Showdown media this may be the last time I'll ever see Chase in animated form, so until Christy Hui makes more content, we're pretty much stuck with this guy.
Besides the Telemachus movie i have another disney princess movie. Think Emperors New Groove meets Princess and the Pauper. It's set in East Africa and based on the fairytale Goose Girl. The 2 leads are Princess Amara and Zuri.
In this take on the Goose Girl, the servant is not the villain, the princess is! During a trip to visit her fiance, Amara gets the idea to swap places with Zuri in the hopes of getting out of a marriage. Just one day of fun! On the way back they are attacked by mysterious forces and get separated. Zuri is taken to the royal palace while Amara seeks refuge at a farm that belongs to Zuri's family. They shrug it off her claims of being the real princess as her being crazy and puts her to work managing a flock of geese.
Zuri struggles to get acquianted with the sudden luxuries. She sees this as an opportunity to change the system from the inside. She also meets Amara's fiance. At first, he seems cold and distant, but seeing Zuri-As-Amara isn't the spoiled brat he believed to be, he opens up to her and they fall in love. He also helps her navigaye court politics. Coupled with her kindness and generosity, life in the royal court begins to improve much to the dismay of Amara's evil aunt, Shani. A witch who plans on gaining immortality by kicking off a forever war.
Back with Amara, she meets a shepherd who is also zuri's childhood friend. He isn't amused by her antics but helps her anyways. He mentions to 'Zuri' that he might leave soon because the farm is in danger of closing, the money she sends just isnt enough to keep up. Hearing stories from the other villagers of the real Zuri's kindness Amara begins to realize just how much she took her life for granted. She decides to repay the favor by using her fashion savvy to make colorful clothes. It's so successful the family are invited to the wedding party.
Zuri discovers that Amara aunt plan on taking over the kingdom. Amara as Zuri arrives with Zuri's family and is warned of the plan. They work together to stop Shani, leading to a final battle involving Shani's powered up against a flock of geese (Zuri's family brought them as wedding gifts). In the commotion Zuri takes a blow meant for Amara and knocked unconscious. Shani is defeated and turned into a goose and flies away, never to be seen again. Thinking that zuri is dead Amara weeps over her body and admits to everything, realizing that her selfishness got her only true friend killed. Miraculously, her honesty brings Zuri back to life.
Once things settle dowm Amara and her former groom talk, he admits that he is hurt by her deception, he also acknowledges that he himself wasnt perfect. In a way the lie had helped them both grow as people...and as friends. They call off the engagement, leaving him and zuri free to marry. To make it up with Zuri's family, Amara offers to stay as their goose girl so their daughter can further her career. Zuri's family becomes so rich they retire and leave the farm to the shepherd. He takes Amara for his wife.
The movie ends with an elderly Amara, now a chieftess, recounting the story to the village children. She may have outlived her husband and friends, but not the lessons she learned.
