“Alune Can You Please Just Listen?”

First art post on this account.

If there’s one character that truly brings me comfort, it’s Alune. Technically, the species she’s from isn’t mine, however I have essentially dominated the species by almost single handedly making enough OCs to fill the entire population-

But that’s besides the point-

Alune is a tarcadian, a warrior who can turn into a bird (her specifically a harpy eagle), her sole purpose to crush her enemies: the Nervemites.

As a soldier class, she’s very skilled with a variety of weapons, but her primary ones are good ol’ throwing knives (don’t be surprised, they pack a punch with spikes that deploy once they hit their target!)

Alune is around 7 feet tall and is on the average height/borderline shorter end of the height spectrum for her species, however she makes up for her height in muscle. She’s a very strong tarcadian, being able to take on someone 3 times her strength/size, as her individual ability is super strength!

Regarding other aspects of her appearance, the horns are not part of her head, but rather something her species get made for themselves when they achieve a major accomplishment - it is standard for tarcadians to eventually all have a set of horns made unique to the individual.

Alune has a tattoo on the tops of each of her hands, her right being the letter G, and the left being the letter M in her language, these are the first letters of her mother’s names.

Alune’s name comes from the word ‘Lunar’!

Alune is the most loyal friend you could ever have. Her confidence, quick thinking, and bold demeanor made her the perfect leader for her brood (a term for a group of tarcadians of similar age that grow up together). Since she as a nestling, she was always wanting to take charge, and while one do the younger ones of her brood, she was incredibly resilient and was never afraid to speak her mind about what she wanted.

While her confidence is infectious, it makes her significantly more stubborn than her peers, causing her to butt heads with others and having trouble admitting when she’s struggling, or when she’s wrong. This has unfortunately been her biggest obstacle as a person, causing her to break multiple personal relationships because she cannot set her ego to the side to hear someone else’s perspective.

Alune isn’t the smartest tool in the shed, while she’s very quick in combative situations, she isn’t as book smart as she is street smart (but don’t tell her that, because she’s always right-) She struggles with dysgraphia, and has to do all of her paperwork on a tablet instead of with a paper and pen.

While stubborn, Alune is a very strong, and deeply caring individual. The wellbeing of her friends, family, brood mates, and colleagues is incredibly important to her. She’s a great shoulder to lean on, someone you can always go to if you need to cry; this gives her a sense of responsibility that she’s responsible for the physical along with mental wellbeing for those around her. She’s Carrie’s a lot of unnecessary weight on her shoulders that she will never disclose due to her pride, after all if she isn’t the perfect Alune everyone sees her as.. who is she?

So much of Aline’s confidence is an act she puts on to not worry her crew, and most of the time she is a pretty energetic individual.. but there’s those particular nights when she thinks about her purpose in life, in the war.. and questions her very existence. If this is was all she was made for, did it really mattered if she lived or died? But she’d never do it, her brood counts on her, and she never breaks a promise. She’s frequently seen as reliable and someone most people can trust and count on.

A lot of people would call Alune egotistical and some have said she’s narcissistic, but her response? “Is it really so bad to strive to be the best at something?”

“It’s funny how the most confident individuals can also be some of the most insecure,” one of her peers noted.

She’s a very flirtatious individual who has 4 lovely partners that she absolutely adores names Recu, Eelvi, Scabren, and Rtexea; however they do not adore her dirty jokes (well… one does-)

Alune suffers from sleep walking.. and fighting, as with her super strength it causes excess energy that she has to keep up by eating massive amounts of food and exercising frequently. If she doesn’t get out the pent up energy, she’s prone to kicking her partners out of bed, or wandering around the ship.

Some of her quirks include the following:

- Chirping when her ear is pulled

- Sneezing if you boop her nose

- Upper lip twitching when annoyed or focused

- Chewing pens

- Unable to sit still, needs compression on various parts of her body to be able to focus

- Clicking and whistling to show she’s thinking or surprised

- Cocking an eyebrow when annoyed

- Voice breaks/cracks that are almost whistle-like when making high pitched sounds, laughing, or speaking in higher pitched tones

I’ve never found a proper voice claim for Alune, on the account that I can’t find a voice that would account for her little voice cracks that she gets (especially when she laughs, her voice cracks/breaks when her laugh reaches higher pitches)

Alune’s bird form is a harpy eagle named Goldwing, which tarcadians describe being in their bird forms more like driving a car than being the bird itself.

Alune is a character I go whenever I need someone to lean on, because out of everyone, she’s the one I know I can count on without any fear of judgement.

Let me know if you have any questions about her! I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts! (Please I desperately want to ramble to someone about this ;w;)

Hear me out-

You get: Alune sillies-

I get: a fandom for a gal who could punt everyone across the room-

It’s a bird! It’s a plane! No, it’s just Alune-

Her head is used for ramming, not thinking-

Don’t get me wrong, Alune is very good with strategy and thinks well on her feet, but math? Thinking AHEAD? Not her style, that’s why she had Eelvi do all the thinking for her while she headbutts her enemies-

Sorry for delayed postings again, been hard to draw lately while I prep for college and recovery from a recent surgery 😅

How does one develop the motivation to draw again-

Cause I got none-

Woooo Tumblr! Giving this platform a try, so let me go ahead and introduce myself!

Hi! I’m Cereal! My pronouns are she/they, and I identify as pan and nonbinary. I’m 19 years old and from the United States (ew 😒). I’m going to college to gemology, and my fashion style is alternative, a mix of goth and a little bit of punk, but I use the label alternative personally.

My hobbies consisted of singing, writing, photography, drawing, gaming, and hoarding things. I’m an avid collector of posters, band tees, Disney pins, mugs, and especially rocks (yes I’m broke but we don’t talk about that part)-

Things I’ll post on here will be art, photography, fashion, some writing, and maybe things music related.

Thanks for getting to know me!

Sorry it’s been awhile! Started my new job so posting may be kinda slow, but more Alune content will be coming soon!

“I got no sleep, and if I don’t have coffee, I’m going to make it everyone’s problem.”

Alune’s been a coffee addict since her early adult years. Due to needing to burn so much energy she has rn wear herself out, but if she doesn’t do it enough she will sleepwalk. Her sleepwalking has her waking up feeling tired and not well rested, so it’s basically a never ending cycle of caffeine for her.
