*shines the OC rant laser on you*
i can't decide who to talk about so you get (at least) one fun fact about everyone. and most will be meta
brass lining: my first ever iterator oc. they were made over a year ago. they are my most "typical" (working to solve the great problem) iterator and though i don't develop much for them, they are important because i use them as a reference point for my other iterators
flight of the crows: their antenna are really hard for me to draw. why did i design them like that? because it looks cool. they are somehow both very emotionally intellegent and also unable to figure out how to handle other peoples emotions
chains by summer: originally, i based him off prometheus but now he more resembles achillies. i wouldve added more ancient greek influence to his design and atititude but greece nor a greece-like culture exist in rain world
three star songs: personally my favorite iterator color pallette that i made (i didnt make paradox). i consider her one of my more underrated iterators because i love her so damn much but i feel others are more interested in summer or paradox. NOTHING wrong with that by the way
paradox of creation: their lore was originally concieved because i am autistic about the immune system. now one of the greatest explorations of iterator anatomy and physiology ive done
salt wind blows: stole his name off of a username i saw somewhere. i dont really talk about her much but she's a secret favorite of mine
garden of bones: unrevealed because i want ita designer to post them first but their name comes from a song i thought was a sick iterator name for months
all the immunerators: each of them have at least one dot on their face, inspired by cell nucleus :)
equinox of winter: when i made them, i wanted to try drawing iterators different from what i usually do and in canon. very much will draw more bulky iterator ocs in the future!
call of the blade: she has three dots because she is based on a neutrophil. neutrophils have a three-lobed nucleus!
a perfect tragedy: it never moved in its can because the puppet is literally attached to the walls. its other structuremates cannot understand how it doesnt want to fidget
rising memory: vaguely inspired by the same origin as my sona! archivist from inscryption. help
bead from the branch: bead's body markings are based on a simplified drawing of antibodies, which b cells produce
blue lotus: already explained the origins but more flowers grow as it gets colder
arsonist: my first ever slugcat oc. her markingd were inspired by a black kite! if you know, you know
scholar: also vague inspiration from archivist inscryption... they have seen many iterators in their day and will keep meeting them too!
livewire: a vulture even smaller then a slugcat. three star songs made it after figuring out ghost was a bad messanger
the yoinky sploinky: two headed lizard i never did anything with and still has its placeholder name. based on the fact that reptiles are more often hatched with two heads then anything else
neuron slugpups: my friend blip was taking inspiration for designs to make. i said neuron flies. i later took home neuron pups for paradox
mixtape: bright blue coop pup i found. themed around an inspector
heart: an artificer sona :)

Can you please tell me more about Orphic Tubbo? I love your stuff
ait so im taking a wild guess that orphic tubbo wont actually be canon so im gonna treat it like an au and infodump all over you about this
Thalia is, like previously noted, the goddess/muse of comedy and pastoral/idyllic poetry and Hermes has a LOT of shit that’s his to work on, he’s not only the messanger of the gods but also a commerce god, a pshycopomp, patron god of liers and thieves, Hermes is all over the place
He would most likely be raised by Thalia and adopt a lot of music associations from her but also be trained by Hermes in how to be more of a trickster which cements Tubbo as a pastoral god that favours underdogs
Now the question would be how his underworld story goes since orphism is the name of the game here. The two flavours are died and got better or went down there and got back. Now because of what triggered this whole thing to start with was Tubbo going mad in the Pogtopia mines I’m gonna lean to the latter. For some reason Tubbo goes into the underworld and I’m gonna list some reasons even tho i have one in mind 1. To talk with Hades - Hades doesn’t leave the underworld so some reason to talk with him would fit 2. To retrieve a soul - Same as above and might be connected with the above, also mirrors Orpheus a bit much but ssssssh 3. To talk with Persephone - Now this is the sucker I’m most leaning to because as a pastoral god Tubbo watches over, well, pastures and if somethings wrong then Persephone is the person to ask, and she just so happen to not only be an orphic god but also stuck with Hades for half the year
So let’s say that the myth goes like this; It’s a late spring and the gods wonder what’s taking Persephone so long in coming back to the surface and independent of the Olympians rulings and decisions Tubbo just decides to go down there and ask, lying and sneaking his way into the underworld to see her. At this point theres probably some trial to overcome and while doing them like any ancient greek hero would he might charm Persephone and Hades with songs and how quick he learns the skills for the tasks and the myth ending with spring coming back idk i need to brush up on my classical greek story structures but basically thats where tubbo would gain the Orphic conotations from ASWELL as gaining associations of learning new skills and getting some epiphets in here
 Orphic Tubbo - Worshipped mostly by Orphism who puts importance on the underworld journey and his role to bring Persephone/Spring back to life  Pastoral Tubbo - Worshipped by farmers for obvious reasons  Learning Tubbo - Sounds like a bad thing but I dont know greek so im not even gonna try making correct sounding epiphets anyways so worshipped in his capacity as an amateur according to the higher class but as someone who learns skills quickly  Lying Tubbo - Worshipped as the son of Hermes and laying more importance on the trickster conotations  (this is all the same god btw epiphets are weird like that)
he would at least also have a birth myth since those take a While to fade generally and maybe one other well known myth since hes not an olympian and is mostly a minor god since most if not all of his assosiations have other more well known gods
