DOWNLOADING WUWA AGAIN FOR THEM RN GET OUT OF THE WAY
Headcanon(it's canon) but when she's extremely exhausted Jien kneads like a cat in her sleep. Doesn't happen too often or for too long. But she kneads.
Post.
This post covers his introduction, idle voicelines and cherished items!
[Sooner or later I’ll rearrange all these lore posts to be more organised 🥲 maybe once I write his character stories. For now, all his lore can be found in the tag “wildcard’s archives 📁”.]
Trying to make a spooky lineless thing for Wuwa Jien .. it's going alright so far but I think I should change this purpleish to a blue just to make the vibe colder. But it's coming along really nicely ngl.
Watch me slap something poetic onto this piece once I'm done with it, talking about Jien and Proxy, and how Proxy is so evil and Jien is dormant but doesn't mean she's toothless and-
Anyway, y'all,..... I have a rp blog for Jien now ✌️
Wuwa and HSR interactions are welcomed and encouraged RAAAHHH
(looking at my two rp people, you know who you are... don't make me spell out your names...ily)
Supportive boob holding anyone?
Idk what came over me, don't ask. I do have to say, I'm proud of this new art style I'm trying to cook up. It's much less straining on me than the way I used to draw before so that's slaying
Idk how I haven't posted this here before, but here's the finished look of that old W.I.P. I had floating about!
Jien in WuWa? Yessir! No universe is safe from her cuntology
No new fics for today, I'm taking a little break, but inbox is open for any questions, oc asks or interactions ✨

˚ˑ༄ؘThe dragon awaits the arrival of new letters...
"Soft little petals of light flicker across the darkening sky like little light bugs of the faraway cosmos. Lush grass kisses her nape and tickles her ears as she rests in this field, so far away and even further still. It allows for a brief moment of reprieve from the cacophony of this world that is not her own, the little bit of peace her heart desperately bled for continuously. From here she looks at the sky and the little lofty clouds sailing through it. It greatly reminds her of the sky she watched as a kid.
Memories of today flow through her mind, cuddling themselves up behind her eyelids along with countless others, ones that span from the day she was learning to walk. Prompted by a child she glimpsed today, taking their first step into their mother’s arms.
Similar experiences bind themselves into a string that Jien feels like she can tie around her neck. The memories are real, and remain the only thing to anchor her to reality and the belief that she herself is still here. They urge her to eat breakfast in the mornings and they lick the tears from her eyes before she slumbers in the night. What would she be without these memories but a hollow bone?
For once more she finds herself wishing she could take the dirt road that leads to her home again. And in her mind’s eye she imagines herself doing so, remembering every pebble and blade of grass as she walks through the retelling of a time long gone. She walks up the rocky hill, feeling small, realizing she is half the height she is now, making her heart jump with each step. And once she finally reaches the top and the front of the door, her little lungs gasping for spring air, she feels grown again, towering in the old doorway. The house is empty. Everything is the same way it was nearly two decades ago. There is no one waiting for her. Not people, not her pets, and the books hold no words but blank pages.
Jien opens her eyes, feeling a wetness bubble to her lash line, and she breathes a heavy sigh, tail swishing from one side to the other in the bed of grass she made, her shoulders slacking.
She wants to just … be. She doesn’t want to continue, her heart screams for rest, oozing blood from every crevice in hopes she’d notice it and stop. But she moves forward, somewhere, prompted by the same heart to do so. It makes no sense. Why can’t she just sit here forever? Staring at the skies and waiting for stars, walking through endless woods and halls of her home?"

SCREAAAMINGG
Just by the pose you see who wears the pants in this relationship.
It's giving "he asked for no pickles"
Finally got around to designing the worst of Jien, well - one of her shards that is known as Proxy, as she had long discarded her real name in hopes to abandon what "shackles of humanity" she had. She looks uncanny to what Jien looks like, and she uses that to her advantage.
The question of how Proxy became aware of Jien still evades Jien. But perhaps not for long..
___________________________________
I love that design choice of going for "pure colors and pure looks" for the villain and I just had to put that into Proxy's design. GRRRR (she's absolutely vile though)
In HSR she is most definitely mara struck too, fucking insane in every world though. In Wuwa - man idk how she's alive with how much overclocking she does. Like bro...
Stay tuned for more lore?? slay??
Mootoe i think they would either hate each other or be so close they talk shit about everyone, theres no inbetween
YOO
Okay so, me personally, I can definitely see their relationship starting off a bit rocky or just them side eyeing eachother so bad, they're judging eachother in their minds but I also think they can definitely bond a bit more as time goes on and they realize they're not any sort of enemies to one another hswiid
Jien is hella chill, she doesn't have the capacity for hate even if she's quite judgy - she never lets certain opinions get the better of her and she likes to remain neutral with people unLESS those opinions from before have a foundation to them. Ngl, Jien would be be quite curious of Reyna, and despite their relationship starting off rocky, that would only make Jien want to interact with Reyna more 😭 oh bro what if they were put up to work together👀 for something, idk-
Also Reyna better buckle up if Jien catches word of her and Jinshi. Just imagining them exchanging side eyes and one of them is trying not to cackle is making me cackle.
It would probably take A LONG TIME for Reyna to actually allow herself to befriend Jien because of past trauma and she doesnt want to lose anyone she holds dear, i mean it took her like 3 years just to allow Jiyan to even talk to her outside of training.
Reyna is the type of person who looks so intimidating but is a huge softie (would never admit it), if by the time she becomes close to Jien and she learns that Jien is dating Jiyan, Reyna would literally threaten to beat up Jiyan like she did when they were still cadets.
Reyna doesnt like jewelry, but she might wear horn jewelry if Jien and Jinhsi teamed up and convince her LMAO
Also Reyna has this little dragon statue and she doesnt let anyone touch it because it belonged to her twin brother (RIP Marshal), so if Jien accidently did anything to it ITS ON SIGHT.
Okay but imagine if their species are distant cousins which makes them somewhat related- it would be funny ngl
Yeah! It would take a LONG LONG time for both of them to warm up to eachother and sort of subtly "prove" to one another they're not gonna harm eachother. I mean they work for the same cause, come on girls 🙄 y'all not immortal and can die any day, move it-
Also that's so funny to me how Reyna is threatening tHE GENERAL OML😭 bless her, I love her sm. Jiyan would just chuckle awkwardly as he's reminded of those cadet days and the training sessions, some where he maybe even got his ass handed back to him?
Also side note but I love that she's so tall too.
Reyna can rest easy, Jien respects private space more than you can think of, and that goes to belongings of another. Unless Reyna handed her the dragon statue hand to hand, Jien would just admire it from afar. (RIP Marshal, you're being missed) If someone else tried to touch it? Bro is getting scolded, it's done, they're done for. Shame on you stranger. Jien is protective too, she likes order too so she has the tendency to jump into things that aren't necessarily directly tied to her - she hates petty arguments or arguments that didn't even need to happen if only the people within that conflict remained calm, and she just can't resist from setting records straight. Can be quite the yapper depending on the situation.
And them being related in some way would be so funny cause they look so different. Idk how they'd go about finding out exactly, besides the obvious blood tests or something like that, but imagine their relatives telling them that. OH IMAGINE IF THEIR FAMILIES HAD BEEF IN THE PAST 😭 Those old nan tales "they wanted to take our lands and peaches but we stood firm arrr".
I'd love to make an Exile OC if I knew what they were. Are they just criminals? Homeless people? Some sort of actual ethnic/cultural group that people just discriminate against? I'm confused cause there's quests where we help Exiles but then we're allowed to just beat up and steal from them in the world exploration, like wth. And apparently Calcharo grew up as an Exile so seriously what's the explanation.
Also, Calcharo lore is so good. I love his character. Skipping next couple banners cause I used so many pulls on Jiyan. (80 pity after losing 50/50 to Jianxin) and now I have to grind even more to get my bbg Cal
Definitely gonna ship him with an OC eventually (I live vicariously through all my OCs)
From my understanding Exiles are some sort of bandit groups, they're not necessarily evil like the Factidus(if that's how you spell it) but they definitely deserve to be cautious around and they don't really bow down to the higher power of the country/region. I guess you can compare them to Eremites from Genshin Impact. Eremites are desert people who are commonly mercenaries but in one quest we meet Jeht and her father and we see it's not all black and white - there's bad Eremites that care for nothing else but money and their own skin, but then there's Jeht's father who fell in love with an outsider and was exiled from his group for it. We do beat them up in world exploration lol I have only played one quest in Wuwa that's oriented towards Exiles so I'm not really an expert here, I'm only talking with the knowledge I have so far 😭 if there's mistakes in this I'd be happy if someone corrected me on this.
But tbh you have quite a lot of creative freedom with Exiles. Although they may be in contact with other Exile groups they still seem to group up and look at the group's business and interests first, acting independently before anything else. You can make your own Exile group and make them really morally bad or gray or maybe even make them veer to the morally good unlike the majority of other Exile groups.
Exile OC and Calcharo are gonna slay together though, I know that 😈 they can have a shared background to bond over fr, maybe even make them interact briefly before if their Exile groups came in contact - maybe they were in conflict too?

Hiii!!! Glad to see someone else who likes to make OCs. I wish I could make one for Wuthering Waves but it's just too early. Not enough story yet 😔
I have a couple of vague ideas for now. Some sort of butler/maid type, an adrenaline junky, and a courier (+ more).
Need more world building details, though. WuWa feed me loooorrrrreeee
OC is my bread and butter tbh, I love making OCs and seeing how they'd interact with the canon characters and the story itself, it's super fun and comforting ngl<3
And I totally get you! 😭 Wuwa needs to get more lore asap, although even with the stuff we have now you could definitely start exploring ideas. Besides the obvious main act, the side quests are really interesting and have some really nice plots! I am also holding back a bit on fleshing my girl out due to the upcoming acts in Jinzhou that may impact her story but who says we can't babble about the possibilities 😔
A courier for Wuwa does have quite a handful of ways to go about, story wise and well... physically moving place to place qhwheje It reminded me of that quest in game that leads you to the Sea of Flames where that courier was one brave/bold woman 😭
