What if your general was not just a general but a nation, devoted to your oshi and their will? Enter this general where the fanbases and generals of /vt/ are reimagined as rival nations fighting bitter battles or beginning wholesome friendships for the glory of their oshis.Anniversary re-bake editionPreviously: >>93744069Interactive map:https://vtwbg.github.io/Introductory document for new anons:https://rentry.org/vtwbg-qrdVITI ARCHIVE:https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QxRtAENk7g3hJAlBsEWRJ6KVEItchyvymusJ1Q7ulEs/BIOME MAP:https://files.catbox.moe/wz0ad4.pngOTHER PROJECTS:https://rentry.org/vtwbg-projects

So how have you guys changed your approach to writing lore over the last three years? What sort of improvements and lessons have you taken away from your time here?
why is the thread up
>>93921271The general's anniversary is coming up so I figured it made sense to bake another one.
>>93917710one big thing for me was working temperature, scent, hearing, taste into all kinds of writing including lore, instead of focusing on visual stuff. Really enriches stuff. I used temperature a lot for the /morig/ lore.
>>93917710I dont know I've only been here since last year after the holox game
Pioneer Customs Agents are closing in on the Joshu Cartel that have been smuggling "mayo" into countries. We are working closely together with world leaders on how to stop it.By using our advanced satellite tracking systems, we can easily track their movements and zero guess them one by one!

Oh hey we're back so soon?

I'm going to be gone to pick up house mate. Don't let this thread die on me.

>>93937654Sanallite tech is not too bad. Though they're masters at deep space travel and survival.
>>93939917a little space race is good for the economy
>>93939990Too bad I'm exiled from space. Only airship engineering for me.
>>93936147It was a calm morning, near the launchpad of the Stel Reguretto SpaceAZ complex. The seabeavers gnawed calmly at the cyan mangrove bushes carpeting the beautiful beach. Low and growing in intensity, the rumble of the day's spaceship being rolled out to the pad spooked the rodents, who skittered back into the ocean.She was beautiful. The vessel, an AZKirianne-XII, was covered in black ceramic tiles interspersed with glowing pink runes. Ribbons of blue-white vapor cascaded heavily from the exposed parts of the cooling system, from whence a subtly different shade of pink was glimmering. At the bottom, the six thrusters of the first stage awaited their signal with bated breath, ready to deliver skull-numbing starfire to the area once their time came.The carriage retreated back to the safety of the hangar, some hundreds of yards away. A deathly silence fell upon the idyllic scene. Then, a crystal clear voice resounded from a voice amplifier.>十、>九、>八、Satori squeezed her sister's hand. Unlike most spectators here, she wasn't concerned for herself. The launch viewing area was kilometers away and up-orbit from the site. If the most catastrophic chuubic cascade occurred, they were far enough that not even the fastest chunks of shrapnel would endanger them. No, what was garroting her heart in this moment was the one sitting in the ship.>七、>六、>五、Her husband, the pride of the Pioneer nation, and the #1 source of stress of her life. Every time he promised her he was retiring to a comfier role, there was "one more op" to do, "one more prototype" to test-fly. She damned those AZKineers who kept coming up with new magical baubles to gamble her love's life with.>四、>三、>二、A blue flash roared to life under the rocket. In an instant, a furious plume of grey-blue exhaust raged horizontally out of the launchpad.>一,>GUESSU!Down went the AZKirianne's shackles, and the tyranny of gravity over man was no more, for just her brave pilots. She rose up, slowly at first, and then faster and faster, leaving a growing column of shimmering smoke beneath. The furious sound of the screaming thrusters battered the audience, almost painful even at this long distance. Ever so gently, the black needle angled herself sideways, curving her accelerating trajectory to the heavens towards her desired orbit. Soon, the engines could be seen from beneath; the five engines arranged around the central one formed a brilliant blue star of blue-hot magical plasma from this angle.She flew straight and true. The launch, the most unreliable part of the mission, was a success. Her fellow watchers yelled and cheered at the new star the pioneers had just sent to join the firmament. Satori, on the other hand, put her palm against her chest and felt her beating heart calm down as she grew surer of her husband's safety. Each of these occasions had to age her a whole year...

>>93942200>>93937654You should anchor your posts for archiving.
>>93944918Oh right, that's a thing. Well, I'll go ahead and anchor the other anon's as well.>>93910603Anchor >>93937654 and >>93942200 under... /vsinger/ under an AZKi section? Unless he prefers something else.
I do miss space, but I'm stuck on an island with dodobirds and short palm trees. Speaking of cutting grass I should write something tonight.
>>93910603Archive under the Exiled Sanallite in /vt/ lore.Tonight I will spending my last night sleeping in the escape shuttle. The shuttle has been moved to inside of the library vault. It's not a farfetched feat. The shuttle is about the size of a shipping container found on the back of trucks in the station. Or in context to this world it's as long as four hooded wagons. The arbiter, who's also the head librarian, is quite amazed at how compact the living quarters are inside. She writes down notes. "So the toilet is also the shower, which is also the sink, which is next to the kitchen. The bed is literally right beside the kitchen. And there's no steering or cockpit?" I respond, "correct. This is an exhile's ship. It is designed to land on an inhabitable planet with thirty days of supplies. And that's it." The woman adjusts her glasses then says, "would explain why there's no windows or an accessible computer." I say "the computer is bricked. All data and programs are to be self-deleted upon landing. I'm left with only a survival guide for information. The one which you confiscated."The woman sighs. "Apologies for all the secrecy and mistreatment. If we've known you were an exiled Sanallite from another world then we would have-" I cut her off. "No need to apologize. You have done what was necessary. I could have been a murderous psychopath for all you have known." The woman smiles and says "true, but from the Sanallite reports I've read murderous psychopaths are executed via airlock." I fold my arms. "I see..."The woman closes her notebook. "My name is Laia Page. I am the head librarian and arbiter as you know. I'll be studying the shuttle and survival guide. If I have any questions I will summon you." "Well met Ms. Page," says I. "I'd introduce myself but I have no name." Laia adjusts her glasses. "I see. You will have a name soon. For now I think it's best if you sleep in this wonderfully air-conditioned ship for tonight. We're arranging your living quarters tomorrow."Laia quickly leaves the shuttle. I close the door, take a shower, and prepare my last favorite meal ration, mushroom risotto with bread rolls. Then I lay down in my cot and quickly fall asleep. I understand I will have no space age luxury after today. It's going to be nothing but hard work from here on.
>>93947726gambare spaceman! I wonder what name he's gonna end up with.It seems like Ms. Page knows a bit about Sanallites, I guess she read the ancient archives...
>>93949606Now I just need to figure out what the Sanallite will do for the next few weeks of his life. He'll have shelter and food but will recieve no pay as his labor pays for them.
wao

The anniversary feast is a luau of fish, chicken, pork, fruits, vegetables, rice, and eggs.
Happy Birthday, /vtwbg/! Don't forget to grab your free balloon from https://vtwbg.github.io/ before the day ends! It's been an honor being your cartographer all this time, and here's to another three years of maps, lore, and autism!
Hip hop.
It's sad that we're spending the anniversary just bumping the thread.
>>93974078I call dibs on the green one
>>93978655Maybe some of the regulars didn't notice there was a new thread up after the last one died... But I agree, so let's get some discussion going!Wow, it's been 3 whole years since founder made a thread on a whim for mapping out /vt/ as its own little world, and what a ride it's been! /inf/ territory disputes, the rise and fall of Nue, timeloops over canals, the great forest annexation, the quantum-nuclear nature of chuubanite, Pomerlane's insane output, the trifleet, /rumina/'s cataclysm and subsequent migration across the sea, provincing the map, the /soc/ era, a space AU, rebranding as /log/, coming back from hiatus to create Viti, adventures on Lorelei Isle, and making joshu cosplays.What have been some of your favorite memories from your time in /vtwbg/? Check out the first couple threads for some blasts from the past or take a look at the Vitubia archive to read some old stories and tell us what you think.https://warosu.org/vt/thread/16710105https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HM_UK-qNKXQgFH-ixcWsCC3oAgBnFrxCKRPXdKiPMwQ/edit#heading=h.lqs5pqmzyw42It's time to celebrate!
>>93979925My favorite memory is when I got IP rangebanned.
Congrats on 3 years!
>>93979925I really need to go reread Melisende one of these days...
3 years is a long time
>>93913205this year for sure
>>93979925I still remember that one ai poem about the sanalite funeral, it was really cute. Might look around and try to find it again
>>93974078Thanks for your work all this time mapanon, always appreciated it! Happy birthday /vtwbg/.>>93979925Can't forget the infinitely complicated border history of the original phase lands, or the short-lived "/vshojo/ is NATO" arc.
>>93979925I used to be a risuner.
>>93974078shotgun
>>93983387 (Me)I think this was itOnce upon a midnight dreary,Amidst the stars so bright and eerie,A Sanalite's life did end,And to the stars they did ascend.The mourners gathered, dressed in black,As the body lay in its casket,The priest performed the sacred rite,Guiding the soul to cosmic light.The coffin burned and turned to ash,As the mourners watched in solemn flash,The ashes spread upon the land,Of the planet they had once manned.But something strange did then occur,As the mourners turned to departure,A shimmering shape did start to form,Of a dog-like figure in the storm.And then another, and yet another,Until the night sky was aflutter,With spectral dogs all around,Guiding the soul to holy ground.The mourners gazed up at the sight,As the dogs danced in the starry light,A new Starchild had been born,Their journey to the cosmos dawned.And so the mourners left that night,Grieving, yet glad the soul took flight,For they knew the Sanalite's fate,To forever dwell among the cosmic great.Oh, how the stars did shine so bright,As the mourners left into the night,And the spectral dogs barked farewell,To the Sanalite who had sailed so well.
How are your projects going today? Looks like I'll be writing some more later. Can I ask how you like the story is so far?
>>93985336I like it! I'd like to know where the sanallite will end up living, and also whether he'll come across the aerodrome.>>93984951maybe aislop isn't so bad
>>93972874
>>93979925wao!i cried when the bread made that hype for divegrass about the thread dying so i began vis8t8ng and various things happened but we seek to be making bump regularly!
>>93984951wao this is beautiful!
Speaking of divegrass, this is your last chance to suggest new players for the upcoming league! I'll start conducting the roster poll next bread, so if you have any ideas for changes you'd like to see for the team, then now is the time to let us know. All current and past suggestions and rosters can be found here: https://rentry.org/team-vtwbg
>>93989389divegrass love!

>>93989389good luck!
>>93992138me too!
>>93989389DnD Autism Support Group
>>93989389I'm new on this thread so I will not suggest a player.I will lend my support as the team is very fun to watch.
>>93994826its everyones team!if there's something you think cool, suggest it! others might think its cool too!is what i think!
I think the Sanallite's life is going to be very mundane for a couple of weeks. His job is to literally cut grass for thatching. He'll probably sleep outdoors or in the barn with the capybaras.
>>93989389prehistoric teamates
Would the forests of /uuu/ be quiet or would it be filled with haunted screams and hallowing?
>>93996322>in the barn with the capybaras.sounds comfy desu
>>93997592For now it's pretty quiet and content, though by some definitions it's certainly "haunted"
>>94001526How so?
>>93624951Go ahead! A long time ago I wrote that what would become salamoim were all opossum since they were based on palkyries and it was the only fanbase with a concrete design. Later I expanded it to include people with other animal ears like fox and tanuki to take into account the other fanbases. In hindsight it wasn’t the best idea to tie the people’s image so close to the palkyries since we get 18 girls now…Anyway, since most of the fans are depicted as some kinda animals, I think it’s only fair that salamoim includes types other than opossum! You’re free to decide if they derive from the same archetype (big ears, grabby tail, semi-digitigrade) or they’re something else entirely!
>>94003284Well there are quiet a few "ghosts"/spirits about
>>94004898Well I don't know if the forest will bloom in the spring. Maybe it will. Right now I imagine the forest as dead with no leaves right now. So I wonder when the tapirs will arrive to inhabit the forest.
>>94005272It will bloom. I choose to believe.
up
I love Meeta
congrats on 3 years!!!
oaw
>>94017185Me too!
I hate running out of time. Wound up spending my last hour playing Pikmin again. Will have to apply dandori to grasscutting somehow.
>>93910536bump
>>93910603Archive under /vt/ lore the Exhiled Sanallite.It has been roughly a week since I started thatching. My hands have blisters from all the cutting and tying grass I've been doing. Because of this I have been told to rest on the seventh day. I rub ointment on my hands before applying linen bandages. Still I am thankful that I have landed in a place with some civilization.It seems the locals here all comes from different corners of the world. There's a variety of people with animal traits that match a lot of pantheons. At the moment I am currently residing in a beach shack just above the sandy cliffs looking over the jagged pools underneath. My caretaker is a chumbud named Nana. She might look like a child. However chumbuds are small child-sized merfolk who are half shrimp. Nana manages the crab pots in the jagged tide pools. She's only twenty-two but she is a grandmother of fifteen. Right now Nana is living her retirement on the island away from Atlantis. Today Nana brings a cast iron cage holding what looks like a trio of snapping turtles."Looks like the rock turtles are eatin' the crab pots again." Nana says as she slams the cage by the firepit. "I say hell with it. Let's have turtle soup tonight." I stand up. "I'll start the fire." Nana waves her large pincer at me. "Nah-ah aaahhhh! You'll start a fire in your hands. Ointment is flammable." I rub the back of my head. "Ah, I forgot." Nana giggles then says, "You're such a helpful criminal. Now I'll start the fire if you can fill the Dutch oven." I fill the cast iron dutch oven with rain water collected in a ceramic tub. Nana has already begun butchering one of the turtles. "Someday you're going to make rock turtle soup so pay attention."With grimmace I watch Nana prepare the turtles. The way she uses her hands and pincers to butcher is unworldly. Nana certainly can do damage with her pincers and claws alone. Once the turtles are in the pot I help clean up the viscera. "Well Grant, your hands are softer than you thought weren't they?" I can feel the burn of the blisters pulse and ache. "I'm not used to having such rough tools like stone and cast-iron wedges." Nana gives my hands a gentle rub. I whelp in pain. "You're going to need gloves. Even the grasscutters use linen gloves at least. It's not chitin like my hands."I say "the tailor is still weaving them last I checked.""Hmm. We should have a source of leather soon," says Nana. "If your going to mine you'll need leather gloves. The barn we're building should help with that."Nana tends the food while I gather wood. I immediately spot a cargo ship off-shore. It has unfortunately sailed into the sea crags. The ship tries to navigate through but then it looks like it catches on something. Nana sighs. "I'll have to report this to the rescuers. I need you to keep an eye on dinner for me dear." Nana kisses my cheek. She then climbs down the side of the cliff until she hops in the water. I'm distracted by watching the ship nearly capsize that I amost forget to stir the pot before topping the lid with coals.
>>94023245Nicely written, can really feel Grant's pained hands throughout. Makes sense that he'd have pretty unworked hands, what with being a spaceman.>grandmother of fifteenholy shit chumbuds breed fast. NiceI've never had it but turtle is supposedly pretty tasty, so that should be a pretty good stew. Wish I had a nice granny to take care of me kek.
>>94023457Chumbuds breed fast but they also die fast.
So the exile's named Grant. Right now we're training his soft hands with grass cutting. Because once we find some iron Grant's going to be mining with stone and crude iron tools.
>>94024106Grant's going through the minecraft arc, let's fucking go
