And in my case the story is continued. I really like the concept. Thanks AP

Three things that I want to do should I win the lottery:

• Turn Firebird into a full-length movie
• Produce Aschewelt the anime series
• Raise bucking bulls for PBR (the Professional Bullriders Association)

@DC-Lover: You have a backstory for The Volunteer. Are you looking for a retcon or an adventure?

Coming soon: Alexander of Limbo’s Gabrilaxx and Ehkar

Willkommen, Jeimuzu! Great start. Rather eclectic group.

A brown recluse bit me once. Not fun! Cool character, though.

Glad to be of assistance, WMD! Thanks for the compliment. I must admit that the second Amy Atom’s insignia makes her look more “Star Fleet Officer.” Instead of zypping on her thighs, maybe use cutaways?

Nothing like insomnia before going back to work after a 3-day weekend…

Quick and Easy Challenge #8 “Saddle Up”

No entry.

Quick and Easy Challenge #9 “Hands Down”

Design a costume around a basic body type using nothing but HandRight or HandLeft items. This design is rather muddled until you look at the close-up. I was hoping for some astral / ethereal warrior. I wound up something like a Guyver.

Welcome back, Legatus! Niece period piece.

Szívesen.

At first, I was thinking just a shy schoolgirl. Then I listened to Mozart’s Dies Irae. Epic! Your anime style inspired this opening scene.

Here is how I envision the rest. The main protagonists are Sibyl and her classmate David. Sibyl is psychic. David is a normal teenager. The two survive the fire that engulfs the earth. They seek answers to the cataclysmic event. They explore the new world that rises from the ashes. Appropriately called Aschewelt (“Ashworld”, which is also the title of the anime series).

Aschewelt is populated by what might be considered demons, mutants, or aliens bent on destroying the human survivors. Haven’t decided on any specific term or species. Nonetheless, these are powerful beings with abilities and themes inspired by Greek mythology. Sibyl is a prophetess in Greek antiquity. Sibyl the schoolgirl becomes more powerful as the classmates encounter more monsters. David becomes a capable fighter in his own right. Sometimes, he gains temporary powers through various magic, artifacts, or alien technology.

Of course, Mozart is the background music to all of the action.

DIES IRAE, DIES ILLA
Original Character by Harlekin; Adaptation by The Atomic Punk

“Sibyl, hey!” said David excited to have finally found his classmate.

“Hey,” replied Sibyl emotionlessly.

“Why are you hiding in here? I’ve been looking for you for hours!”

“I just wanted some time to myself before the storm came. Close my eyes. Listen to some Mozart,” answered Sibyl, still with no emotion.

“What’s wrong? Don’t tell me that you are having those ‘visions’ again.”

“They are not ‘visions!’ They are quite real!” snapped Sibyl, this time rather angrily.

“So you were scared and decided to hide in a drain rather than come home from school?”

“David, you don’t see. The storm is coming. Soon there won’t be a home,” Sibyl whispered and curled into a fetal position.

“Great, now it’s starting to pour. Mind if I crawl in there while we wait for the rain to pass?”

“Sure, David. Now is not the time to be out in the open.”

“Dear God, Sibyl, look! The rain… it’s turning into fire!”

[The Atomic Punk]

Brilliant!

I love the story you wrote for her. I love the idea of her people being a dying race, and that she is offering the one thing keeping her race alive to the invaders in order for her race to die peacefully.

Thank you. Depending on where you were standing when you saw the blue flash over the mountain, the story has a different ending. A survey found that women see a romantic sacrifice while men see a clever ruse. Well, I asked one woman and one guy. However the reader interprets the story.
