Hi there, how's it going? This is my Raevan quest. 8D

Lab 305 is one of my favorite shops, and has been since it was an interest thread. I have vanished from the thread from time to time for various reasons... but I always find myself getting sucked back in there! The concept is one of the most unique I've seen among the Breedables: sure, there's the soul thing, and the Lab is not the only shop that has that, but other factors on the construction of Raevans come into play here. I have come up with literally dozens of concepts for this shop, and I'm still always thinking up more ideas for fel essences and souls that could go with them. Possible combinations are endless, and as such so are my ideas! I would list them all here... but I'm lazy and not keen on constant total thread revamps.
Her alignment would be True Neutral, and her name is currently undecided.
Even though I have a concept sketch here, I am targeting a semicustom at the highest. The artists of this shop are more than creative enough to interpret my ideas from the fel essence and soul, and I love being surprised by awesome art!


1- intro / nav Philosophy : alignment and name
2- Pestilence : fel essence Philosophy : fel essence
3- Pestilence : soul Philosophy : parameters
4- Pestilence : fully formed
5 et al - reserve Philosophy : soul

The fel essence Parasitic Dust...The fel essence, "Whispering Conch"...


The storm + erosion = Parasitic Dust. It normally floats around harmlessly in particles too small and few to have any effect on people, but large quantities of it suck the life out of people. It's possible that those "mystery illnesses" the odd person gets are caused when unusually sensitive people get a whiff of it. The effects of Parasitic Dust seem to depend on the individual, with possibilities ranging from simply fatiguing you unto death to rotting your body from the inside out once a good enough amount settles into your lungs. But regardless of what it does to you, it's best to stay far away from it and breathe with caution.
Many people remember from their childhood, gathering up a shell and putting their ear to it in order to hear an echo of the ocean. Putting this shell up to your ear, however, produces something different... a soft voice, whispering to you the secrets of the universe. How did this come to be, and why? One would know the answers to these questions, except that the mysteries the conch tells you are always quickly forgotten.
Kyou acquired this essence from an ancient, delapidated house that stood alone on a stark landscape. It was covered thick with it and everything within a sizable radius of the house was very dead.

...plus a soul gathered from the Black Plague...


Yersina pestis. The bubonic plague. The Pestilence. The Black Death.
The powers of this prospective Raevan would be inspired partially by bits of philosophy I know, and partially by the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis. Words themselves have power within them, and the Raevan would be able to bring them out to the fullest... in essence, a logomancer.
It was a disease that ravaged Europe in the medeival period, ultimately wiping out 25 million people.

UghI'llwritetherestlater.

...equals this Raevan of pestilence.

I'ma eatchoo~

Please note that I wouldn't DEMAND SHE LOOK LIKE THIS if I got her... I just like putting my ideas to some use.

However, I would probably demand the usage of plague masks since they're DAMN SEXY. >V Ohsoverysexy. TvT~~

In the (astronomically hopeless, lawlz) case of a custom, I'd ask Kyou to favor creepy over anything else... I likes me the creepy things. If you hadn't noticed already. For example, the "hair" in this picture is actually giant bacteria cilia. 8D


Alignment: ...Lawful Evil, probably?

Name ideas: Blithe (play on the word "blight"), Evangeline, ...

Other details will be put here soon.

Reserve~ The soul of the Raevan of philosophy would be that of the lantern fly, an insect commonly found in Thailand. Many reference pictures can be found here: ]http://godofinsects.com/museum/thumbnails.php?fid=93

Other ideas-- these are up for grabs for anyone to use, including Kyou of course! I have included possible parameters for some of them, in parentheses.

Water of Youth: water from the fountain of youth. Maybe... makes things age instead of youthen them? XD
(Charisma, natural charm, deceit)

Biosphere Soil: earth that's constantly changing form, from sand to volcanic ash to clay, etc.
(Elemental - Earth)

Fabric of Reality: an area of space that looks like rippling heat, but upon closer inspection has wrinkles and folds like well-worn cloth. Perhaps it has a small tear...

Nectar of Asgard: The nectar of the gods! It's only found in planes of existence beyond our own; what's it doing in the realm of humans?

Fog of Anguish: We've all heard the saying about people who have clouds hanging over them... in some cases, this is literally true. A valley somewhere in the world is covered thick with an unusual fog: getting close to it makes one feel sorrow, regret, and heartbreak. Walking within it makes the pain worse until it's all surrounding you and the only thing you know of is pure agony. Even concealed in a small container, having it in your hands dampens your mood significantly.

Animate Husk: A discarded cicada shell that somehow came to life. Look out, it bites!
(Undead, summer, prime numbers [i.e. "17-year Cicada"])


((gaahaha, most of these ideas are "x of y". XDD))

(( You always have such unique ideas, Mouse! :3 I love the sound of spider silk as something to pull the soul from. Would it be an abandoned web? I'm curious to hear more. ))

*laaate reply*

Oooh, thanks! As for the silk... yeah, probably an abandoned web, and I'd probably be looking for a web from the golden silk spider. As name implies, their webs are gold in color, and really huge.
