My highest praises goes to how raw the death scenes feel, especially Brokenstar's trial, they were incredibly well written. (And given the asks I've been seeing from here lately I suspect they keep the same quality as time goes on.) Fireheart has such good characterization and him standing in front of Lionface made me feel like I wanted to cheer him on. I absolutely love the way Yellowfang talks, the "Didn't"s and similar were very funny and it really made her character pop, honestly I could go for a whole paragraph about how much I loved Yellowfang. Crookedstar is a delight to read and I'm looking forward to seeing more of him. Also I'm very scared to read what happens to Bluestar, lol.

Overall very very high praises for the characterization and I love how distinct each Clan feels. I absolutely loved it and I'm so excited to read the rest of it!

Oh shit, an old timer! I think I remember seeing your name pop up here and there on the old blog. Hello and welcome again!

4. How easy is it to earn their trust?

For Prakaa, it's fairly easy to earn her trust, she's very welcoming to new people just as long as you're sharing good vibes with her.

As for J and Daison you might need to dig deeper. J's only really trusts a group of people she keeps close, they're all people she knows will always have her back and Daison just claims he does not trust anyone, period. Realistically though, being genuine with them or showing interest in their work will at least earn Daison's respect.

5. How easy is it to earn their mistrust?

The easiest way to make J distrust you is by insulting anyone she considers close. She values her relationships even if she's a bit awkward to show it.

For Daison, he's naturally suspicious of a lot of people due to his line of work but once you've earned his trust, you're basically set.

Prakaa does not like being lied to. She's a bit of a pushover in the sense of forgiveness, but if she catches on to you lying to her without clear reason, she will genuinely get upset.

also i (axlestuck) do overworld sprites too! they just get posted less :)

I have a couple ideas on how you could make a sheet or form for user submission, namely I would personally section it by year or section of IDs to hopefully avoid selection bias (people submitting the same popular piece of apparel or popular gene over and over).

If using a form that might have duplicates, you could probably use a combination of SORT, FILTER, and UNIQUE on the submission form results to filter them out, which wouldn't account for typos but might cut some of it back. For allowing people to check which items have been submitted I would make a lookup command using INDEX and MATCH for item names that returns a true or false if it finds that item name.

I also have a huge project spreadsheet myself with data for every gene scroll (as well as gene IDs from the scrying workshop), piece of apparel (most bundles too, I might be missing some), scene, and vista. It has IDs, prices, locations, ingredients, and auto generated game database links and BBCode. For your format it would only be missing Cycling, Retirement, and more specific item Bundle data. I could easily write a concatenate to format it into a more usable string for you with a caveat of maybe having to replace quotes with another character and find-and-replace them later.

Sorry for the length of this ask, I hope it's comprehensible. And I'd be perfectly willing to help with setting stuff up too, I genuinely, seriously love making spreadsheets, forms, and entering data.

I didn't mind the tag essay at all don't even worry about it!!

I really like your ideas (and the fact that you already have a spreadsheet that has most of the necessary info) and frankly if you'd like to help with setting up a sheet for this I would be so very thankful I'm like the one single flight rising player that doesn't like using sheets. also I'm thinking of cutting out retirement data and just putting "unavailable/retired" in "location" instead, just because I wouldn't really get enough use out of the retirement info to justify a whole separate value.

I can't seem to find the original post but i did save the picture so here you go! Be sure to ping @aroacedavestrider if you use it as he is the one who made it in the first place and asked to be pinged if his base was used!
