Library of the

Library of the Stars Ski Lodge 

This is everyone’s favorite tour guide, Cato - short for Cat o’ All Worlds, of course. I don’t come into this ski lodge, but I’m from the original book and all, so really. why wouldn’t I enlighten you on this amazing, amazing destination? Welcome to the Library of the Stars! It’s ready for you, whether you are or not. 

The Library is fully-stocked with all sorts of amenities. The kitchen is stuffed full of comfort foods - yes, even yours! The vending machine can make anything you ask for, a bakery case is full of items chosen for you personally by the cosmos, and sprinkles of the stars are included for all of your cupcake needs. Not, of course, that you're limited to cupcakes. Oh, and it truly has the best tuna milk i’ve ever tasted… *purring*

<Reshinerr: that’s not in the script Cato that’s not in the script why are you saying that that’s not in the script->

...Correct. Apologies. Well, surely you’ll all enjoy the recreation room! From beanbags made from the highest-quality fabric of the cosmos to the bookshelves with carefully-chosen library books and even a catch the fish game, you’ll be sure to enjoy yourself. And guess what? If you catch enough fish you get a treat!

<Reshinerr: It only has that for you.>

Don’t be rude, Reshinerr. 

<Reshinerr: Rude?>

Our feline visitors want to be entertained as well. And you’re a human and all -

<Reshinerr: Not really.>

-so naturally your interests are tasteless and dull. Anyway, back to the script. You even get your own room, designed specifically for you by the cosmos themselves! Do note that once you’re here, you may not be able to leave, and disappearances into clouds of smoke, puddles of ink, black holes, etc are frequently reported. But really, from the endless shelves to the ever-changing other rooms, it’s a truly magical destination. Fill out the form today! 

Welcome to the Library of the Stars! my character (Reshinerr) is the main character and will have the viewpoint in most scenes. Because of this, most of your characters will primarily be side characters. In addition, I may have to make minor changes to characters as necessary. I will try to keep as much the same as possible, especially for actual AEs and CBers. CAPTCHAs are not allowed, but if desired a few can have animal companions.

While designing your character, please make sure they’re not super similar to another! Similarities are fine - just make sure there’s something different. And if you have the same problem as someone else, you or i can give it a new nuance. Eccentricity is highly appreciated but not necessary. Fantasy and star-themed stuff is best, but one or two can be completely different for fun :P 

I will allow up to 10 characters. Please note some will be very superficial. The depth i give each character is only related to what the story needs. One character per person; if there’s not enough, then you can make another.

Please note that this will almost certainly be a dark ski lodge. While there will be little or no graphic violence, there will definitely be themes of mental health issues. I will add a trigger warning for anything major; if anyone has anything in particular they would need that for let me know, but if it’s too much in the ski lodge this might just not be the right one for you.

I will have a few weeks before I post anything to flesh out the most important scenes. But don’t think that means it’ll be weeks of nothing! I might post playlists, art, and unimportant rambles and side quests >:D …or nothing. We’ll see.

I’ll post the intro in a bit!

thank you so much!! and you're right, there is another. i just hadn't known if i had posted it. I actually still like that one a lot. better than this one. His head is way too small in this one and he's too tall. tbh the colors got intensified when it got posted so it looks better than irl anyway... not that it's drastically different but enough to make a difference.

i'm strangely nervous to post these... anyway, Reshinerr at the Star Boba Cafe. (i need a new name for that...) i feel like this going to look awful once it gets put on the CB, since it's mostly about the color details. i did crop it so it would show up better. if anything, it added to it XD the texture in the background is supposed to be clouds, idk if it looks like it. also the wall behind the counter very much should be black or something that isn't bright purple/pink but yeah. but i can't point out all my mistakes!
