⚠️DO NOT REPOST OR USE MY WORK⚠️

I will not tolerate enough who reposts, uses, traces, or heavily references my work. If one were to use my work as a reference then I don't mind, but if it becomes something like a copied idea or character, then it crosses the line for me— The only exception to this is if: (1) I made a request/given permission for a repost; (2) you are someone who commissioned me for a specific piece, or (3) if the character I've drawn is yours.
— Fanart is NOT to be reposted as well. Characters of course will not be mine, but please do not repost my work at all.
— Please report to me or ask the person in question to take down the art if you see it posted anywhere by someone who isn't me.

🌈THIS IS A SAFE SPACE FOR LGBTQIA+ COMMUNITY🌈

As someone part of the community (I'm a transmasc nonbinary omnisexual and demi aro-ace), I want to make sure that my space is inclusive and a safe space for everyone.It's my duty to also support and educate others about the community and why we are valid as people.I will not at all tolerate anyone who acts offensively or disrepectfully towards me or the community. If I see anyone who does so, you will be blocked and reported.

🌸RACISM AND DISCRIMINATION IS NOT TOLERATED HERE🌺

Similar to the previous bullet, I will not tolerate
racism, sexism/misogyny, ableism, islamophobia, and any other form of discrimination against a marginalized group.Anyone who does anything offensive, will be blocked and reported.

🏳️IF I HAPPEN TO HAVE DONE/SAID SOMETHING WRONG/HARMFUL, PLEASE LET ME KNOW AND EDUCATE ME🏳️

I can still make mistakes and possibly harbor toxic mindsets that can lead me to say something harmful or offensive.I genuinely do not want to have misinformation or any form of opressive ideas, so I am open to being called out for the behaviour, apologize for my actions, and being further educated. Albeit, I'd rather not have it publicly or become bigger than it is.In the case of informing me of problematic individuals I should not follow or support for their actions, please let know if I so happen to be actively supporting them. Though I'd like proof of why said person is problematic as I do not want any false accusations.

🌕WHO ARE YOUR MAIN SONA/S?🌕

Both of my sonas use the same name, Draphene. Though only my primary one has a full name, Draphene Sprok. Both can just be referred to as Draph for short, and are referred with they/them pronouns.➡️My primary sona is Draphene Sprok. They're the ombre blue dragon that is my very representative and mascot. No backstory to them since they're only just me personified as a dragon.➡️My secondary, yet very beloved, sona is my Sky: Children of the Light game (Sky:CoTL) avatar, Draphene. They technically have my personality (yes, just me), but their backstory and life revolves around the world of Sky.To summarize, Draph is a god banished (hence now reduced to a demigod) in the body of a Sky kid whose goal is to recall their memories of their time as a god.Pretty much Draph has complex and tragic lore, so I plan to create it into a series to show their story through animation and comics. Though some of their info is compiled in my story highlights in Instagram. Same thing with their numerous outfits and creature shifts.

🖌️DO YOU NEED MY PERMISSION TO DRAW MY CHARACTERS?🖌️

You don't need my permission if you want to draw any of my characters ^^. I'm alright with any kind of art (gore and artistic nudity is fine). Just nothing offensive or crossing boundaries.Regarding explicit NSFW works, I don't mind if it's Sky Draph or my shapeshifting kitsune, Keegan. Tho regarding other ocs, pls ask first as majority of my ocs I'd rather not have NSFW of.Other than that, be sure to tag me since I like seeing them ^^.

🌹AM I ALRIGHT WITH PEOPLE SHIPPING MY CHARACTER/S WITH THEIR OWN/OTHERS?🌹

Although I do have original characters (ocs) that I ship together, I am NOT okay with any of them being shipped with stranger's ocs.These characters, especially my sonas, have aspects that are close to me despite being fictional characters. It makes me uncomfortable when someone just puts them in a relationship without my knowledge or consent.If I did have my ocs shipped with another person's own, then that would be because we're mutuals/close enough.

✅WHAT YOU CAN DM ME FOR:✅

• Questions regarding commissions or if you would like to commission me.• If you have the intention of buying an adopt (character design) from me.• If we are friends/mutuals (obviously lol)• If you'd like to report an issue or concern that involves or relates to me, or requires my attention.• If I encouraged you to dm me for reasons.• If you'd like to just drop by and say/give something.

🚫WHAT YOU CAN'T DM ME FOR:🚫

• You shouldn't dm me to ask, "if we can be friends". Friendship doesn't work that way and please don't dm me if that is your only intention. Especially because you think you'll benefit from me for being an artist.• To roleplay- I don't really have time to roleplay, nor do I enjoy doing so with strangers or people I don't know.• For small talk- I'm not too interested in making small conversations, unless it is an important concern that requires me.• To ask for free art or discounts.• To ask me out- my dms are not open for relationships. I am also not interested with creating relationships with people I don't know.• To make jokes, pranks- it's weird most especially if it's done to me by strangers.• If dming me is just not encouraged

🎨WHAT ART PROGRAM AND BRUSHES I USE?🎨

I use Procreate as my art program. Though my previous one was Medibang.Brushes I use vary, but I use the following quite often:
• Sketching- HB pencil (lining/sketching)
• A brush I made (lining + sketching)
• Painting- Gouche (coloring)
• Painting- Acrylic brush (blending)
• Airbrushing- Soft Airbrush (blending)
• Painting- Spectra (coloring)
• Touchups- Short hair (coloring hair/fur)I actually can't guarantee, that I can update this since I often experiment and use different brushes/brush packs lmao. But I can give answers every now and then if asked multiple times.
