WARNING: This poster is a huge bitch!

In this picture I am very sick in the Hospital with Twilight Sparkle as the doctor as an Anthro pony and Misty is the Nurse. I am sick with Hemolytic Anemia with a Hemoglobin of 7.3 g/dl and my Unconjugated bilirubin is 2.6 mg/dl in this picture, So I am getting a transfusion of Blood to help with this which you can see from the IV bag and the Cannula going into my arm, As well I am getting Crystal treatment for the added healing power with Crystal IV in my hand which is causing my fingers to grow very long and boney with large prominant joints. I am Crying because I am sick and I do not want my fingers to grow more. As well there is EKG leads on my cheast hooked up to the Monitor to show my heart rate. And Nurse Misty and Doctor Twilight Sparkle are watching me during the Procedure. Well, I hope you like this pic

I wonder whatever happened with the crystal hands guy. His newest post on deviantart is from last december, so he's still alive, but it had nothing to do with either crystals or his secret asexual marfan's syndrome crush.

The author's reasoning was black people have superior muscles and therefore they can be better at football. It's basically :biotruths: and really bad and dumb.

Anyway whoever said they couldn't find Eyeshield 21 fanart barely tried because it did not take long to find stuff

Let's actually expand a bit on why this is dumb.

Africa has the most genetic diversity on earth. I am more closely related to Murata than two black people from opposite sides of Africa might be. Black identity in America is made up of random samples from all over Africa stripped of their historical identity and mixed together with other populations (natives, whites, etc).

You could maybe make statements like x tribe from x country tends to produce excellent long distance runners. That's rarely what gets said though. It's always weird poo poo like the ANIMAL POWER of the BLACK MAN IS UNRIVALED!

wheres the jester, I could do with some pointless nonsense right about now

A person strongly disappointed in the designs of the last Silent Hill games was challenged to come up with different Silent Hills with different themes and monsters, with the caveat that there should be a Pyramid Head expy and a monster with tits. Someone else expanded on their ideas and made these:

quote:

The sole survivor of a wealthy and horribly corrupt, racist family. Not a bad person themselves, but guilty of hiding proof of their family’s deeds. Their Silent Hill is a mockery of upper class excess. Hideous gold trim and gaudy crystal poo poo everywhere. Winding marble architecture.
Pyramid Head expy: crap, crap, Evil Within already has a monster with a safe for a head. Uhhh…crap. Okay. How about a strangely proportioned figure dressed up in a fancy suit, and they’ve got an awful bird-like head. I don’t know why but I feel like bird monsters go well with a rich rear end in a top hat theme.
Nurse expy: drawing from what I just said…harpy maids!

quote:

Our protag, Alexis Hawksmoore, has arrived in Silent Hill in search of the estate her father had apparently purchased there without anyone’s knowledge shortly before passing away. The mansion appears to be at least the size of the rest of the town, and the town itself becomes more and more squalid as it moves away from the mansion, eventually devolving into mud and crude hovels
Alexis has a mostly suppressed ornithophobia, was disgusted with her families greed, opulent and corrupt lifestyle and abuse of power, and secretly fears that she is just like them inside
Silent Hill: Gilded Cage

Mourning Dove - the “Pyramid Head” expy, Alexis originally misinterprets it as a metaphor for her father, but comes to realize it’s actually a manifestation of her brother, who was a compulsive spender and died in prison after being caught embezzling from someone richer. It moves in a disturbingly birdlike manner, bobbing it’s head as it walks, preening, perching on railings and statues. It hoards shiny objects, even those with no value, and it’s room in the mansion is a bower bird-like nest of golden trinkets. the twitching vent on it’s chest appears to be how it breaths, and periodically spews gouts of blood

Bratling- a metaphor for how Alexis feels about her and her siblings childhoods, spoiled and helpless, completely dependent on their parent’s wealth. the size of a large person, bratlings will clumsily attempt to swallow you whole. nearly immobile, though you would sometimes encounter then en masse in large nurseries or in groups of other, faster enemies

Scavenger- manifestations of greedy relatives and business partners who devoured the families wealth after her father passed. usually they would appear preoccupied literally devouring the mansion like a bloated corpse, though their attention would turn towards you one your health got low enough

Harpy Maid- look I know this was supposed to be the “sexy one” but I decided to base it on a sort of role-reversal of those puppets people use with baby birds so they imprint on their own kind, as a metaphor for how Alexis was raised more by nannies and paid caretakers than her actual parents. They are often seen doing chores around the mansion until they see you and attack

Flamboyant- the real “sexy one” based on Alexis’s past boyfriends and suitors who had good looks but not much else and were mostly just after her family’s money. they pose on pedestals like modern art then go into an elaborate, strutting mating dance

Mirror Mirror- All the mirrors and reflective surfaces in Silent Hill show Alexis as birdlike in some way, either with a bird head or as an actual bird, reflecting (haha) how she is just like the rest of her family inside. that would culminate in this miniboss, a double-sided mirror that would chase you through the halls attempting to pull you inside. If it succeeds, it falls tho the ground, releasing a single pigeon while its shattered pieces reflect Alexis as if she is lying on top of them

Can of Worms- manifestation of the Hawksmoore’s rotten core under a golden facade, as well as corruption and bribery that put them above the law. would blend in with other suits of armor around the mansion, as well as being one of those enemies that splits into smaller pieces as it takes damage

Glimmer- gangly beast that would dwell in the huge canopy of chandeliers that would fill parts of the mansion, attempting to attack from above, or even occasionally leaping down for a one hit kill before awkwardly struggling to get back up to its perch if it misses

wheres the jester, I could do with some pointless nonsense right about now

There are a couple more.

quote:

Someone who commited murder while still only a small child who barely knew better. Their Silent Hill is a cartoonish playground where nothing is consistent in size.
Pyramid Head expy: a woman in a dress with impossibly long legs. In fact, every appearance would be shot so you never see this being above the waist - like a looming “adult” - but she’ll suck you into the air if she gets close enough.
Nurse expy: let’s go with headless barbie doll things, like they have that weird plastic knob a barbie’s head attaches to. They wouldn’t move like people, but like scurrying cockroaches on their backs.”

Silent Hill: Playground.
the protagonist is Jerome Piedmont, who killed his mother with his father’s hand gun when he was only 8, now eighteen and finally spat out of the legal system to live with distant relatives who happen to live in Silent Hill
Jerome has spent the majority of his life trapped in the justice system and has developed a tough and aggressive exterior, though his silent hill reflects a deep longing for the childhood he never had a chance to experience


Plastic Babe- Jerome never felt any real attraction to women, or anyone really, so his “sexy” enemies lack any real sexual characteristics. they vary in size, ranging from doll-size to human-size, and changing strangely as they move nearer, appearing larger from a distance or vice versa. they can cling to walls and move in a generally insect like manner. the boobs are the “eyes”

People Eater-formed from Jerome’s fuzzy recollection of children’s TV shows. very aggressively attempts to shove him in its chest orifice while singing nonsensical rhyming gibberish in endless loops. When killed with a sharp object, their “skin” splits open to reveal two headless humanoid bodies, each with one arm and one leg

Hermit- found in the same areas as the People Eater. alternates between making realistic obscure animal noised and flatly stating onamonapia like “honk” and “woosh”. the “legs” appear immaterial and dissapear when defeated, the “body falling to the ground, empty

Imagination- representation of the time Jerome was forced to spend in solitary confinement, alone with his thoughts.

Little Trike- appear to be mundane tricycles near the beginning of the game, albeit moving around on their own. as the game progresses they appear to… melt more and more

Sock Monkey- inhabit the expansive jungle gyms and monkey bars that cover the outsides of many of the town’s buildings. deceptively acrobatic, though fairly sluggish. they do not attack unless you enter their “territory”, which unfortunately you would have to climb to reach certain areas

Larva- based on those creepy blinking babydolls with the soft bodies and plastic limbs. you know the ones. something squirms beneath their fabric skin, a representation of the way Jerome feels trapped between childhood and adulthood. slow but powerful, and that stinger dose disturbing things to you if it hits

False Child- a common enemy, representing the way Jerome grew to feel about other people his age as well as all children. Their heads and clothing vary.

Lost Fossil- based on those old inaccurate rubber toy dinosaurs, specifically one that Jerome lost and never found. It would be a boss or miniboss of a sandbox larger than a football field and full of half buried buildings, vehicles, ect. also its HUGE, the size of a real t-rex

Madam- like bog said, you never see its face, but appears to be searching for you, calling Jerome’s name in a distorted, whale song-like voice, growing more frantic as the game progresses. also the “dress” would become increasingly fleshy, clinging to her legs. She’s not a direct representation of Jerome’s mother (she was black), but a manifestation of the more stereotyped idea of a mother, hence why she resembles a 50′s housewife (from the waist down, anyway)

I've always liked/been terrified of the Silent Hill games. I was really into them around the time I was also really into Onimusha 1/2. Always thought a Silent Hill-style game combined with aspects of old Japanese horror stories would be great.
