THE RAVEN CYCLE.

a henrietta native, andromeda loves the mountains and her farm and the ley line that it sits on and the goddess worshipping neighbors.
technically, the neighbors are druids; technically, that goddess is demeter, and technically, demeter is her mother. and yet, the late chase presley’s demigod daughter isn’t the strangest thing henrietta’s seen in the last century. her heritage is kept quiet among the neighbors and andromeda graduates high school and works the farm and plays her part. her presence is deemed ethereal and otherworldly, a sign that the gods have come to earth ---- andromeda sighs. ( she'd rather be at jenny's party than in circle of candles. she calls the earth to her in ways that make the druids gasp with joy and shriek with horror. she attends the party afterward smelling vaguely of frankincense. )
with the ley line attracting all kinds of paranormal hunters and entrepreneurs, the gaggle of psychics of henrietta, and the town already full of ghosts, andromeda is fairly certain a bit of nature magic, yawning earthquakes, and glowing eyes in the woods will go unnoticed.

TEEN WOLF.

- set around season 3a to incorporate the full druids plotline !
- andromeda moves from georgia during the beginning of season 3. she’s drawn to the nemeton through instinct, connected through the power pulsing through the earth. she can communicate with the nemeton as if it were another being, and is connected to nature as a whole through this ability and status.
- she is unaffiliated with beacon hills druids, with no current alliances other than her own and the side of nature, despite being a valuable asset to the druids. andromeda is essentially a nature-magic powerhouse that the druids specifically are able to pull energy from, similar to their access to the nemeton, but instead of a dead tree root, it's the primordial goddess’s demigod daughter. druids can draw power from her for things like sacrifices, rituals, conjuring, grounding, etc, but also more positive things like healing magic. anything that require otherworldly powering, she’s ur girl ✌🏼
- her own abilities are not affected or influenced by the power of those around her, but rather andromeda is deeply connected to the earth. she can feel and see through her links to nature. if something is wrong in the woods, she will likely sense it a long moment after.
- she’s got the trope of like ‘ wholesome sweet girl who does a 180, has ancient and dangerous elemental abilities, eyes glow white, she lurks in the swamp and forest like an impartial being but she hides all of that rlly well and has her jennifer's body moment of smearing her makeup back on after dragging herself out of the swamp <3 ’
- she embraces this power but she’s also terrified of how creepy it all is. she can sense and feel the events that go on around her, communicate with the earth and become entranced, wake up in the woods covered in dirt, and so many other creepy little habits that are genuinely scary. the added pressure of being used by druids stresses her out 😳✌🏼
- she’s also the new girl just trying to navigate high school, on top of trying to navigate being a demigod in a town of werewolves and co. (-:
- this can totally be wiggled around in the teen wolf plotlines, i just chose s3 bc its my fave and there was the most druid action in there !
- this is subject to possible change <3

GRISHAVERSE.

BACKGROUND.

- andromeda presnyakova is ravkan born and raised. she comes from a small farming town in ravka whose name has been forgotten on maps. she is the farmer’s daughter, who everyone assumes the family farm’s care will fall into. the farm was reputable for its vast production of food crops, some sold, but most donated to war efforts.
- andromeda was determined a grisha at age 12 after finally being tested and subsequently whisked away to the little palace. she has little memory of her parents : her father died when she was 10 leaving her with her step - mother, and her biological mother was absent for all of her childhood. her father was loving, but was rarely home due to selling crops as a local merchant, leaving her to tend to the fields, which she did by choice given her natural aptitude for working with nature.
- the testers determined she was a materialki quickly, piecing together the unexplained speed at which the plant - life grew at her will. upon arrival to the little palace, andromeda found it hard to adjust to a schedule of training and education, rather than one that corresponds with the daylight and the crops.
- she grows into her purple kefta well : a durast with a blooming reputation for having a gift with living plant matter above other materials. her abilities are impressive with stone and wood, but especially remarkable when working with plants. nature bends at her will as if she’s always been a part of it, as if she belongs with it. anywhere that has soil on the ground is free reign for her. nature blossoms at her touch and she can make almost anything grow with conducive conditions : vines more durable than ordinary, plants thought to be foreign or extinct, poisonous plants deadly to anyone aside from her, etc. this talent categorizes her in an odd way among durasts and materialki ; she’s not fit to be an ordinary builder or inventor, with summoner - like abilities instead —- but by definition, is kept within the materialki ranking. she’s an extraordinary sight to behold at work with the elements —- but one that is deemed less useful to the war efforts.
- her training with botkin is largely unsuccessful. aside from basic self defense, she refuses to learn how to truly harm an attacker. she is, to botkin’s dismay, a pacifist by nature. she understands the purpose of botkin’s lessons and why the darkling wants grisha to defend themselves outside of their abilities, she adamantly refuses to harm another —– but only up - close. but her hand-eye coordination and near perfect aim peak botkin’s interest in her as a fighter once again.
- while andromeda’s specific talents make her the less than ideal grisha to be sent into the battlefield, she makes up for it in her precision as a sharpshooter. her preferred weapon only partially relies on her abilities : a bow that uses naturally summoned arrows ( long, precise sticks summoned with poison varnished - steel arrowheads ) . she prefers to be as far away from the action as possible, given past up close experiences with violence ( COUGH WHEN LINCOLN DIES COUGH ) , and is therefore extremely useful and renowned as a sharpshooter. this skill earns andromeda recognition as a fine sniper and a resourceful durast.
- andromeda isn’t fond of her position as a sharpshooter —— but the pressure to be useful in the war outweighs her own pacifist views. she doesn’t like seeing her “ target ” in pain after being shot, and often attempts to use her abilities as a durast to absorb their pain, even if they are the fatally - wounded enemy. ( source: grisha wiki’s entry on durasts — “ absorb harmful matter from another person’s body into their own. ” i know this says ‘harmful MATTER’ but let me have this one thing, its as close to her original story as i can get ok shhh. ) she often loses consciousness after taking someone’s pain and is weak for days, but stubbornly insists on it when possible.
- ( still working out details and i’ll update when more is added ! ) during a grisha mission, andromeda and her romantic interest, lincoln ( a squaller, details tba ! ) , were unknowingly hunted and subsequently captured by a band of druskelle. in a gruesome fight that earned her a jagged knife - scar along her ribcage she was able to escape from the druskelle, while lincoln’s fight ended his life. he bought her enough time to escape, but also enough to look back and see his fight end in slaughter.
- andromeda returns to the little palace rattled and in quiet mourning. she follows orders, trains, and minds her own business. andromeda largely spends her time outdoors in the gardens, enhancing the little palace’s hothouses, or wandering the halls aimlessly. she is plagued with survivor's guilt, post - traumatic stress, and severe nightmares — but is still kind and caring despite the tragedy.

SHADOW AND BONE.

- andromeda fights in ravka’s civil war, bouncing between the first and second army, still unsure of her position in either. among the first army, she’s a revered sharpshooter and a staple grisha among the troops. among the second army, she’s seen as an unruly materialki that no one is quite sure how to take given the fact that she doesn’t have the same skillset as other durasts and has seen the battlefield more than any of them.
( anything post s&b is left open for plotting purposes ! )

SIX OF CROWS.

MARVEL + DC.

𝐚𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐲: (of body tissue or an organ) waste away, especially as a result of the degeneration of cells, or become vestigial during evolution.

- andromeda presley is unknowingly the daughter of environmental rights activist and head of the budding organized crime ring, atrophy. their goal is to rid the city of people who harm the environment for personal gain, the theory being that these people deserve to be ‘cut away’ from the improving environment. the organization began resorting to doing so with back - alley deals, bribes to politicians, and resorting to violence, stealing, and blackmail to succeed in their mission.... to improve the environment.- chase presley’s dedication to saving the environment in his younger years was what caught the attention of the goddess demeter. she was impressed with his need to take action on a world so hellbent on destroying the one (currently inhabitable) planet. she gave him a daughter as a token of her appreciation and left.- the organization was still in its youth when chase presley mysteriously disappeared. it was assumed to be a murder, one that was unsolvable by anyone brave enough to attempt it. the ‘killer’ was skilled, stealthy, and paid. the popular speculation is that Atrophy was getting too close to a powerful political official and would’ve used means of violence to sway a vote if the head of Atrophy wasn’t metaphorically cut off. no body of chase presley was ever found, so the allure of the mystery eventually died down. it ran its cycles in the papers and the influence of Atrophy slowly faded as well.- andromeda was ten when her father disappeared. she was kept far from his ambitious and budding crime ring. her father’s instruction was that she was never to know about the crime empire that lie dormant without him. the farm brings income, but she’s too apprehensive to investigate where the extra sums of money come from.- andromeda will never abandon the farm or leave for good, but she decides to move away from home after high school. being home right now is a reminder of what she’s lost and she’d rather not face it just yet. she moves to new york city to pursue a degree in veterinary sciences. her abilities from demeter make her a prime candidate to heal — both animals in her program and the vigilantes she pulls off the streets.tldr; her dad was the head of a crime ring who focused their funds on fixing the environment but the money is so so so dirty. mayhaps he faked his death, mayhaps he was killed and cleaned up by someone !! who knows !! ( aka that’s totally plottable if that could be a way our characters know of each other, idk ! <3 ) andromeda has no clue about the crime stuff, but she does know she’s a demigod / her mother is demeter. she uses her abilities for the farm, and when she moves to new york city for college she uses them to heal heroes and vigilantes when she can. she has no intentions of being a hero, and is very content as being the nearest medic, but she is a master archer ( bc what else was she supposed to do on the farm ). crime lord georgia man + nature goddess = dumbass swamp princess who decides to move to nyc.
NOTE: this verse can absolutely be adapted for dc ! honestly, just swamp out the city names for any location and i'm happy to make it work for plotting purposes! <3 <3 <3

AGATHA ALL ALONG VERSE.
GREEN WITCH ERA.

- based out of her home in georgia, the farm prospers under her care despite it’s grim recent events. in the last 10 years, the ground has swallowed her father, it’s been watered with love’s blood, and the forest has claimed much more. she enjoys the spookier aspects of the farm, like the eyes in the woods that glow and the bugs that whisper, and she especially likes creek behind the barn. it’s beautiful!!! until it gets real dark 😔- andromeda is not exactly a witch. she likes using the term as a guise ; she finds it safer and more digestible. she’s a demigod, a daughter of the earth goddess demeter. (the greek pantheon is modernized, see: kaos on netflix)- she is largely responsible for any and all out of the ordinary seismic activity.-she would consider herself an herbalist and a cooking witch, but a farmer first and foremost. she understands that green witch is about harvesting different things and energies, given that the cycles of life and death are built into the lifestyle of farming.
andromeda herself is a conduit for nature’s energy, like a little well of demeter’s power. (see teen wolf & bg3 verses) she can be thought of as a battery to be drained, but that’s neither here nor there.........

THE VAMPIRE DIARIES UNIVERSE.

verse details.
- andromeda resides in new orleans, not too far from her old home of georgia. she has uprooted the farm and downgrade as an escape of a great personal tragedy. she moves to the bayous of new orleans and is a small(er) grade farmer.
- while the bayous are not the swamps she grew up with, they are old and the trees hold old and great knowledge.
- andromeda often serves the witches as a beacon of nature power that they can draw from. she is essetially a walking battery for nature magic and her air is immensely powerful in spells or other workings.
-

FANTASY.

- andromeda is an ancient, primordial being and is believed to have connections to the dark mother and the element of earth, both attributed because of her abilities.
- she is regarded as a chthonic being — not coming truly of the underworld, but rather of **‘under the earth,’** referring to her habits of sleeping inside the earth for decades, like a hibernating bear enclosed by the ground. these bouts of sleep pass without her knowledge and andromeda is entirely unaware of how much time has passed when she is asleep. her awakening causes regional earthquakes as it displaces the rocks, dirt, and trees that have grown atop the small mountain she rests beneath that has grown during her rest.
- re : the title of earthshaper, earthshaker. when andromeda finally falls asleep, she’s honestly just out here wanting to be warm and cozy and she thinks she’s pulling up the sheets of her bed, except she’s clawing at the ground, dragging grass carpeting and layers of sediment over herself to accidentally grow a mountain every time she rolls over. so if you see a new mountain in her area of the woods or wonder ‘hey is that hill getting taller each week?’ the answer is yes, she’s probably having a dream.
- andromeda considers each time she’s awoken a form of rebirth.
- there are legends and cautionary tales about andromeda and her woods. ( i’m gonna think up some and i’d love to write them up in the style of folk - tales ! i have one in the drafting process ! )
- she is unable to recall events prior to roughly four thousand years ago. the legends about her serve as some kind of a map to who she used to be, but do not paint the full picture. andromeda remembers a great heartbreak but cannot see anything before it, as if there is a wall in her memory to block out that great sadness. she doesn’t know who the heartbreak was for or because of, and not knowing the source of it hurts nearly as much as the heartbreak itself. due to her age, there is a very low chance anyone is able to fill this gap in her memory for her. her mind is often too foggy around the topic to seek help in recovering her memories. ( she’s also too shy to ask for help, and is super not cool with someone rummaging around in her mind. )
- andromeda does deeply wish for company but has difficulty getting close to people. when afforded a friend or lover, she wears her heart on her sleeve, despite it all, and is open, eager, internally bordering on desperate to feel the ease of love and care.
- she is sure she must have had another home in a different home of woods. andromeda attributes this to her memory blockage but only loosely calls these woods home. she understands all nature is her home, but still feels like she does not quite belong in the correct way. the cabin is at the heart of her corner of the woods. she has easy access to many creeks, swamps, and flatlands for her leisure. this is the only recent home that she can remember – she is fairly certain she has built it herself.
- she is a great resource for druids if you can catch her while she’s awake — if you dare brave the journey to meet the woman of the woods — who, they say, might just be a myth after all. she is able to communicate with nearly all trees within a certain distance from her location. she would likely aid anyone inquiring about her abilities and the knowledge of the forests, which is an upper hand in whoever is able to sway her loyalty first. this ability is believed to connect her to the earth and forms of magic that are ambiguous.

STRANGER THINGS.

tw: suicide mention, drug use.- andromeda is tiptoeing the line between lesser deity and demigod. she has no idea until getting to hawkins, where she can acutely feel that something within her has shifted since leaving georgia. she had been aware of her abilities prior to moving, but georgia was much quieter, with a gentle lull of whispers in the woods, versus hawkins, where the earth creaks and groans and aches and some dark parts of the woods whistle hollowly enough to send shivers down her spine.- andromeda's ability to see through the trees by extension is largely important to this verse !!- this verse operates under the assumption that we’re including the greek pantheon in the dnd lore of stranger things bc technically different pantheons exist in the game !- demeter’s daughter has an uncanny ability to connect with and understand nature. she can manipulate, create, and summon the physical elements of nature including plants and earth ( chlorokinesis, geokinesis, nature empathy, accelerated growth ). these abilities do not extend to life forms such as animals or people.season 1: andromeda moves to hawkins from georgia as a junior in high school. her step - mother makes the executive decision to move after her chase presley dies of unknown causes. andromeda found him in the corn fields, body already cold. they move to escape the accusations that her step - mother poisoned him, he committed suicide, etc. andromeda can’t dream up any realistic reason for his death and is too haunted by the event to rationalize it.- the rumors mostly die out when the presleys move to hawkins. they buy a few acres of property to maintain the farm that has been downsized from it’s previous glory. andromeda’s step - mother resumes work at her law firm, leaving andromeda home alone more often than not. she runs the farm on her own, maintaining the few rescue animals and crops.- she attends hawkins high for her junior year during season 1. she joins cheerleading. she goes out on fridays and goes to parties on saturdays. she gets picked on about her name by boys who are trying to flirt with her. she always has a lollipop and chews pink bubblegum. she drives a rusted pickup truck to school and speeds with the windows down. she only has cassette tape – fleetwood mac – and blares the radio as loud as she can. she can’t shake the southern accent. she wears bell bottoms and high - waisted jeans and gets dress coded for short shirts, but wears overalls and t - shirts when she’s working outside. she has no academic goals other than graduating. she starts smoking marijuana to cope with the strong otherworldly energy that hawkins gives off.- when they ease into football season, andromeda falls head over heels for the quarterback, lincoln emerson. after a long, sickly - sweet courting process, they begin dating. they kiss behind the bleachers and skip last period to go on movie dates and he never wipes the lipstick kisses from his face. she keeps his letterman jacket in her truck and he never complains that it smells like her perfume.- they’re dating six months when he’s taken into the upside down. through her connection to the trees in the forests, she deduces that one of the trees that feels like it’s “rotting” in the forest is actually the tree trunk portal to the upside down ( that nancy and jonathan later discover ). andromeda enters the upside down and is immediately overwhelmed even more thoroughly by the energy pulsing through the “nature” that has been twisted in the dimension. after fighting both mentally and physically through the upside down, she is able to retrieve and rescue her boyfriend.[under construction] season 2 : andromeda’s farm is among the hordes infected by the upside down. she herself is weak and spacey due to her overall connection to nature, given that the upside down is branching into her land. lincoln has begun acting strange ; they chalk it up to the fact that he spent a week in the upside down and likely has layers of ptsd because of it. evidently, the mind flayer uses lincoln as one of the first bodies it tries to possess. ( this verse is in the process of being plotting with valley @ lorebled and is still under construction ! the bottom line will likely be that the mind flayer’s possession of lincoln goes wrong. between the two very sad idiot seventeen year olds that they are, they resolve that lincoln will die in one way or another. we haven’t figured out how, but for plotting purposes, just know he’s dead and probably sacrificed himself :(( and we’re all very sad about it 😭 ) eleven closes the portal, the mind flayer is cut off from hawkins, and the voices of nature quiet significantly in andromeda’s mind.- andromeda graduates that spring. she has a very hard time celebrating milestones without lincoln and feels a heavy layer of survivor’s guilt after succeeding him. she shies away from the social spotlight after graduating, giving up a large majority of contact with her peers, aside from the parties. she keeps to herself, politely redirecting the conversation if anyone should ask how she’s doing. she throws herself into working the farm, especially given that she is the only one regularly taking care of the property. she spends a lot of time honing her abilities and is deeply saddened by having no one to share them with.season 3 : she’s honestly just tripping balls. when the portal is reopened in hawkins and the mind flayer’s presence curls through the town, it hits andromeda full force. the portal feels more expansive than before and andromeda can feel every tendril that invades the earth. without any real support to help her through it, she resorts to drugs more heavily. it helps quell her astronomically, but still leaves her with bouts of insomnia and nightmares. she spends most of season 3 being a general menace to keep herself high and distracted ; frequenting parties, smoking in the woods or her fields, speeding down indiana backroads that have never met a georgia driver who is also applying lipgloss with one hand on the wheel. the night that eleven closes the portal again, andromeda passes out for 15 hours from the shock of being rid of the upside down.**season 4 : **to be added !!!! andromeda is roughly 19 years old. she’s still in hawkins, tending her farm and likely minding her own business < 3 she's probably incredibly high to cope with the stress of the upside down**overall vibes : **sweetest yeehaw gal around. will bake u a homemade pie literally any time fo day or night. girl next door if she was tragedy - stricken. kind despite it all. prettiest stoner. never does her hair but somehow her curtain bangs always look perfect. losing her mind trying to fend off an interdimensional infestation. earth girl very disturbed by the portal that has torn the earth. just wants to chill but can’t catch a break. lesser deity with immense power that hasn’t been fully accessed but still lets 19yo boys treat her like shit.

THE UPSIDE DOWN + NATURE.

source: stranger things fandom wiki.“It is devoid of human life, instead being overgrown with ropy, root-like tendrils and biological membranes covering practically every surface.”“The laws of physics - at least concerning light, gravity, and sound - appear to function the same way as in the regular world. Furthermore, noise and sound originating from Hawkins is somehow faintly audible in the Upside Down, almost like an echo.”“the atmosphere is only damaging after prolonged exposure, as Nancy entered for a brief moment and showed no signs of damage, whereas Will was exposed to the air for a week and became very sick. This toxicity appears to also extend to the dimension’s flora and fauna. When a series of subterranean tunnels extending from the Upside Down began to spread and grow beneath Hawkins, they caused several farmers’ crops to rot overnight. Trees in the woodlands in close proximity to the affected farms were also observed to have the same rot. ““The Upside Down contains no life recognizable to humans beyond dead plants and trees, instead harboring its own unique biology and ecosystem…. These life forms appear to grow and spread in a similar fashion to fungi or plant life.”

- andromeda is an ancient being, aged over 5000+ , and is believed to have deeply ingrained connections with nature, specifically earth and plant - life.
- she is regarded as a chthonic being — not of the underworld, but rather of ‘under the earth,’ referring to her habits of sleeping inside the earth for centuries at a time, like a hibernating bear enclosed by the ground. she is entirely unaware of how much time has passed. her awakening causes regional earthquakes as it displaces the rocks, dirt, and trees that have grown atop the small mountain she rests beneath.- re : earthshaper. when andromeda finally falls asleep, she’s honestly just out here wanting to be warm and cozy and thinks she’s pulling up the sheets of the bed, except she’s really just pulling at the ground, dragging grass carpeting and layers of sediment over herself to accidentally grow a mountain every time she rolls over. so if you see a new mountain in her area of the woods or wonder ‘hey is that hill getting taller each week?’ the answer is yes, she’s probably having a weird dream.- andromeda considers each time she’s awoken a form of rebirth.- there are legends and cautionary tales about andromeda and her woods.

( she could fight if she wanted to, can unleash hell on a battlefield but will sob afterwards so much that her house floods but . ya know. ) just out here being a swamp thing barbie doll.

dynamics.

ishtar. < 3 in eve's words, are they friends are they soulmates are they in love who cares.

credit to tas and macy for droyi coire content ; this amazing universe that they've dreamt up !

backstory sparknotes.

- her father was a noble with vast farmland used for agricultural purposes. chauntea (earthmother) created andromeda and gifted her to her father and the neighboring druids in exchange for their continued good faith and care in the land <3
- andromeda herself is half wood - elf and ........ forest/human ? she does not consider herself a direct product or child of chauntea, but rather a form created by the goddess. she assumes she's human ?
- her abilities are that of a druid, but her connection with the earth is more psychic and empathetic than usual. she is able to communicate more fluidly with plantlife and use this insight in a variety of different ways (ie. spying through the 'eyes' of trees, conversing with plantlife). she is a conduit for nature magic-- essentially a nature magic battery that can be store or used in a million different ways (dead or alive, she's v helpful!!! because of this, sometimes. ppl would prefer her dead than alive,,)
-she's happy as a clam growing up on the farm until her father dies (reason tba !!!!! i have ideas!!!). the druids slowly become power - hungry when their conduit is left unsuspecting and unguarded by her father.
-andromeda is blindsided by, what seems to her like a sudden betrayal,,, when some of the druids make an attempt on her life (lots of stabbing, they try to leave her to die) in hopes of claiming her abilities.

your party . . .

- your party comes across this conflict in the woods, entering the conversation.
- if you disengage and walk away, the druids will kill andromeda, releasing a surge of nature magic.
- if you fight the druids and free andromeda, you have the option to heal her or kill her yourself.
( if you kill her, you get a nature proficiency bonus <3 )
- if you heal her, she'll join your party as a valuable healer and druid !

dark olympus

(based on the dark olympus series by katee roberts!)
- andromeda is the youngest of the dimitriou girls, belonging to the woman elected as demeter.
- andromeda is largely unknown as a dimitriou daughter, given that her mother has kept her out of the political family picture she has created for her other children. she was demeter's "oops" baby.
- the one and only time demeter allowed her to venture into olympus, her trip was cut short. after falling in love with apollo's son and watching him fall to political assasination, andromeda is crushed. she has great difficulty seeing the city as somewhere safe for herself or her sisters.
- demeter considers andromeda the "weakest link" of her daughters, given her emotional shut - down, and has asked (ordered) andromeda to stay "home" and run the family farm.

highly affiated with shelley's demeter and persephone ! @fairyetales

these are some promos that i've made myself that i was really happy with ! i wanted to include them so you could see some ✨vibes✨ of what i like ? idk if it helps but i'll do anything to make ur life easier !!

- i'm really into the collage-graphic aesthetic right now, but i've been doing it (for my carrd graphics) so much that i'm stuck and i need a new set of eyes to look at the pinterest boards!- andromeda's character vibe is if ur watching in slow-mo as the preppy farmer girl's life slowly deteriorates and she accept cryptidism. demigod life gone wrong ..but at least she's rotting with nature < 3 vibes are very overgrown vines, pale greens and pinks, dark greens !!- i do use at least 2 psds regularly in my icons and blog graphics, one to fix outer bank's lighting, and another for the pink psd, which i'll link below !! you don't have to use it at all, i just wanted to include for color reference just in case !- i would love to commission a two panel promo of some sort with her earth girl vibes, re: the main pinterest board !
- i would also love to commission some kind of graphics for the fantasy/bg3 verse graphics !!
- (honestly, anything you think looks cool as a header or promo, please make as many as you're happy with and you think looks cool ! i'm happy to pay for all of them, so pls go for it!! thank you again for considering this commission!!)
