This was amazing to put together for the past year, I'm so proud of everyone and amazed by what we made! 🧡

I got to contribute a lot of spot art and collaborate with great illustrators (such as in this preview here) to bring this project to life. Any uncredited writing throughout is also by me!

So honored to have been a part of this project. It was an amazing experience working alongside other fans of a series that means so much to me.

Check out the (FREE!) zine for yourself and read BOTH of the fics I wrote: "I Heard A Crawfish Whistling" and "Cock Fight (Pas de Deux)"! #zine #fanfic

I'm in this! Despite a terrible summer of constant things going wrong still managed to scrabble something together and to zero surprise, there's a Trans bent to it.

There's amazing things in this zine and so proud to be part of it. The franchise might be dormant but not forgotten. Please enjoy!
Preview sample of my piece for the Bloody Roar fan zine. It reads: During his early teenage years something… Changed. Quite literally and rather fitting for where they are even though it marked the end of the more innocent era. In the middle of a rather delicate pirouette his beast announced itself and had sent him crashing to the floor with the sudden and violent shift in his balance. He felt like an uncoordinated barrel forced to roll back and forth, struggling to find his feet that seemed to have vanished without his permission. Arms swung uselessly while strange noises emanated from his throat. It was a horrid first experience as things went. The act of standing managed to send him into a fresh spiral once he realised why his hands wouldn’t work. They were gone. Replaced by stiff flippers narrowing at the tip. They can appear elegant to him now but then…? The horror felt all consuming as he refused to believe and desperately sought out something reflective. Steps that should have been frantic were little better than a toddling shuffle. A (Then) impossible picture tried to coalesce in the panic but denial is a powerful thing. It sang proudly in his blood as much as the mysterious warmth that ignited within his chest. There should be talons there, came a bemused whisper as he struggled to remain upright. Sharp as the ones on my feet.

I was given the opportunity to make some merch for this project (˶ˆᗜˆ˵)

Bloody Roar might not be the most well-known, but that hasn't stopped the many people who came together to make this zine. I hope new and old fans can enjoy it!

Under it says "MERCH ARTIST "Lopsy (lostpsyren) https://brlegacyzine.carrd.co" On the right is a graphic imitating a tear through the darkness; inside is a teaser for one of the images for the zine. A chibi anthropomorphic cat with striped, golden fur, long brown hair in a braid and white-and-blue clothes is leaping upwards. Her body has a white-ish-blue aura. She is looking at the viewer and appears to be smiling.

Over 150 pages of Bloody Roar art, writing, and... even a couple music tracks I put together. There might be more on that on my YouTube channel later.
A preview of a writing piece I put together for the Bloody Roar Fanzine. Also, I composed two music tracks. They can't show a visual preview of that, so... yeah.

"A professional woman game dev of a decade and a half, and an ardent fan of games of shapes and sizes. I first started the game dev life at age 7 or so on a Commodore 64 and never looked back. I love Bloody Roar so much I got Stun's beast blazon tattooed upon my person! :P" She wrote a story for the zine! Sample Writing: The clash lasted forever, and only a moment. Bone on steel, ceramic on flesh, and a sound like teeth scraping over piano wire. A roar of blood. Such violent music. Between the staccato of our blows and the screeching of our claws, one could be forgiven for an electric guitar and drums coming to mind. We separated, spacing ourselves apart, just out of immediate striking distance, as we took measure of one another. My arm was damaged, though I felt no pain. I felt nothing at all. Physically, anyway. As I beheld the figure in front of me, steam exhaled from my cold lips as if to mimic the rising of my blood. If I still possessed a heart, it would be racing with anticipation. Maybe it was, in a vat somewhere, while scum in lab coats took hurried notes. Such a satisfying foe.
