Desperation - by Elobo

Desperation




Our consciousness streams inwards, crushing itself. Our mind barely has strength enough to stitch this world together anymore. It tears apart at the seam. The dark recesses of our mind bleed through. Nightmare tendrils reach down to strangle the colour from our form. We grew overconfident, riding high on the devastation of the guardians. But now, we are simply alone on a pile of battered corpses, they have no more energy to give. Our courage has been rent in twain again and again, and we simply do not have the fortitude for it anymore. All that is left is Desperation. All that is left is to blindly flail at the encroaching nightmares while we cling desperately to the decadence of our memories of former conquest. But we are alone now, courage left us a long time ago.

Elobo The Bestiary Of Nowhere
An old page restored from an old bestiary. Amongst realworld species, there seems to be a contradiction. This creature is described as having "jaws that rend adamant" a "bellow that shakes the mountainside" and that "its hide deflects all pain." This is highly dubious, and even the pigmen on this page defy explanation. The mostly likely suspects are that this is some children's boogey monster meant to scare them to bed, taken literally as time wore on. Or that the attacks and attributes described are from accounts of multiple beasts. That is to say, the stories became rolled up into one, making some kind of ultimate chimera.

Elobo The Big Man
[Halloween 2009] They thought they would pull one over on him, take the control of his "family." They stabbed him in the back, locked him in a nest of the Undead. But his fury was too strong, his will was not swayed. He reveled in his reviled and grotesque new seat of power. And with his own hands and teeth he swayed all of the would-be usurpers back under his diretion in a shower of blood and viscera. And when their usefulness had run its course, he disposed of them with extreme prejudice.

Elobo The Daily Grind
Nothing exciting ever happens here. Sure, Ruffini's spirit medium skills were fun... for maybe a month. But who wants to know you're just part of a game? Who wants your mortality and lack of autonomy spelled out for you by a little white dog? It's sobering, it's humbling. It's depressing. And I know I'm doomed to stand here every day selling the same old stuff to the same four kids because that's my lot in life and I know it and I hate it. I just can't wait to go home and sleep and dream of a world where I'm the master of my destiny. Ha, not even that. Nighttime is just a convenient illusion for the "player."

Elobo The Dire War of the Guys from Two Different Cultures in Battlefire Engulfed Deep Darkness
[FANFEST - War Between Saturn and Tenda] The Saturns coveted what the Tendas had: spices, truffles, bird phones. Their relations with this race were strained to the breaking point, however. They thought the Tenda were a weak race unworthy of their gifts. After fulfilling their duties to the Chosen in 199X, they decided to move in on their bitter foes and take their treasures for their own (for use in fancy dress balls). They expected a clean sweep. But the Tendas were no longer meek. They had quickly grown as a species and solidified the relations between their tribes. They became bolder and bolder, and soon began to prepare for the inevitable. Now, on their home turf, they aren't about to relinquish it without a fight.

For the submission to the site proper I fixed the title, ha ha. There is one thing I can't fix, however, in the art. It's a pretty striking snafu when you catch it, but I've already submitted it so I can't go back and tidy it up ;).

Elobo The Ladies' Fave
Be still my cheese clogged heart, my chest goes thumpa thumpa at the very sight of this Adonis wrought in pink fur. His lips must taste of the highest grade Parmesan. What depths do his perfect orbits reach hidden behind those dramatically awesome shades? Can such a mouse be truly faithful to one woman? Or is his heart truly unobtainable and untamable? Perhaps this bad boy image is why I have pledged him every fibre of my being. Perhaps... the rebelliousness inherent to his character is even more beautiful than his perfect hair. Sigggghhhhhhh....
