Prompts

Welcome to the prompts page! Here you will find art/writing prompts to jog your creativity, if you wish to partake of them.

The basic idea is that I will provide about one prompt per month. You will receive a Figment for each prompt you complete, which can be used for purchasing various rewards. 

Prompt submissions can be submitted in the Prompt Submissions Deviantart folder of the group or in the prompt-submissions channel of the Discord server. I will approve the prompt (or reject it, after which you may make alterations and resubmit). If neither option is good for you, you may directly message me.

Prompts must be posted on some social media somewhere, such as Deviantart, Tumblr, Twitter, Instagram, etc. or Toyhouse. Toyhouse submissions can be authorized only, as long as I can see it. 

Unless otherwise specified, you may generally use official Edeia designs, alternate forms, previous forms, approved past forms, fusions with complete designs on the ML, and fission fragments with complete designs on the ML.  

In general, you may complete last year's prompt for the same month; see Previous Prompts. Your number of submissions is limited to the number of the current prompt; you may complete up to two of the same category (art, design, or writing) if only two are available and three submissions can be made. 

March 2023 Prompt: Mentor

3/5/23 - 4/6/23 11:59pm ET

While some might say Edeia are independent in nature, many benefited from the guidance of another - be it another Edeia or someone or something else - in finding their potential. Many, too, offer guidance for others; some might specifically seek out ideated individuals to help them on the path to Actualization. How does mentorship fit in life of your Edeia? 

As a reminder: 

Design Prompt:
Design a character that has been mentored by an Edeia on a path towards Actualization. This can be an ideated individual (that has not yet Actualized) or an existing Edeia's previous form.

Art Prompt:
Create artwork illustrating a mentorship relationship involving at least one Edeia. Perhaps the mentor is teaching the mentee something; perhaps the mentee is trying something out (their abilities, or perhaps something mundane); perhaps the mentee is confiding something to the mentor.  

Writing Prompt:
Write a scene illustrating a mentorship relationship involving at least one Edeia. Perhaps the mentor is teaching the mentee something; perhaps the mentee is trying something out (their abilities, or perhaps something mundane); perhaps the mentee is confiding something to the mentor.  

Figment Store

Prompt rewards are based on how many prompts you complete. Each prompt fill will give one Figment ♦, which acts as currency for the Figment Store. Prompt submissions, earned figments, and spending is tracked in a spreadsheet; you do not have to keep track of it on your own and you can see your balance here. It can also be seen below. 

Rewards for Purchase

The following rewards can be purchased using Figments. 

Variable  | Edeia Artwork

An Edeia artwork commission. Refer to my commission info for options and pricing; each figment is equivalent to 10 USD of payment. 

1 ♦  | 10 USD Discount

A 10 USD discount for any Edeia-related transaction, including customs, notions, special trait fees, and adopts. Cannot stack. 

3  | Fission Trait (One per person)

Add a fission trait (two parts) to any of your Edeia. All prerequisites and requirements apply; you must send a conceptualization form. You are welcome to ask questions before official submission. If you are designing them yourself, please submit alongside the fission designs. The trait will only be official once the designs are done. 

3  | MYO Slot 

A general MYO Edeia slot

5  | Edeia Speedpaint

A free Edeia painting, one subject, in any rough style. Can upgrade to a polished style for 1 ♦.  May be anywhere from headshot to fullbody depending on complexity and specifications. 

5  | Notion Slot

A notion Edeia slot. One additional customization can be requested for 1 ♦ (see slot info for details). 

10  | Custom Design

You may pick one of the following: 

In all cases, I may charge additional Figments for higher complexity. 

Late Policy

Late pardons can only be granted by me, Auspice, but mods can leave an entry to be pending until I am available to decide whether or not to pardon the late submission. 

Full pardons by Auspice have no consequences, but they will generally only be made for slight lateness (up to around 5 or 10 minutes) and/or unanticipated complications such as technical difficulties. 

There is also a system of late-hours. Every three prompts you complete you get one "late-hour," which will be included on the Figment inventory spreadsheet.  If you turn in a submission late, it can be up to one hour and it expends that entire late-hour. Late-hours can be stacked and expended all at once. Mods can accept the usage of late-hours and mark usage in the "Used Late-Hours" column. 

Using Unofficial Edeia for Prompts

For now, I am allowing the use of unofficial Edeia (Edeia who do not yet exist) for prompts under a number of conditions. This is a sort of last resort for people who: 

The above criteria are not required, but if they do not all apply to you, I encourage you to reconsider - other options may be easier, have fewer restrictions, and be less logistically complicated for both you and Auspice. The conditions for an unofficial Edeia arrangement are as follows. 

Example Prompts

Here are some examples of prompts I might offer. Some will be more involved than others. Some may allow a limited number of multiple submissions, some may allow only one.
