And a bonus Tiph because @7nkoy2k.bsky.social is cool and awesome and I already glazed them on Twitter 💜

Massive massive thank you to
@elisabethscarlet.art and @chikncheddr.bsky.social for both drawing her on super short notice as well as capturing the idea flawlessly!!

I hope to write a ton more about her and the tales she's forcibly written herself into in the name of avoiding boredom.

Though, whispers of her occasional meltdowns say they’re very much something to be feared…

After all, what happens when God suffers a collapse of the mind?

Now, she lives out her life in a balance of a multitude of duties, but lives to fulfill Yukari’s will and be a kind, yet powerful face to the residents of Gensokyo.

She’s always desired the title “Big sister of Gensokyo”, attributed to a desire to help others and give them sage advice, while also swiftly defeating evil and rescuing those in need.

With her relation to Yukari, as Tiph’s boss/lover, she’s also an awkward stepmom/dad figure to Reimu, serving as a half-assed mentor and familial friend to her.

She’s become critical in Gensokyo’s “public relations”, giving its residents someone to complain to whenever things go wrong. Should something seriously threaten the idea of “Gensokyo”, Tiphereth is first on the case to stamp it out.

Tiphereth wanders Gensokyo looking for people to defeat in her name of justice, and carrying out the orders of Yukari, while also stopping to make friends with the familiar faces she’s seen before.

Now, she serves as the “good cop” to Yukari’s “bad cop”, along with being someone willing to do the wetwork Ran or Yukari are hesitant to carry out. The CIA to Ran’s FBI, so to speak.

She awoke in late afternoon, being prodded with an umbrella, by a woman in an ornate violet dress and a curious look on her face. From there, they say the rest is history.

She sought Gensokyo in hopes of purpose, meeting her idol, and a change of scenery, enacting her plan by drinking herself and a number of close friends into a stupor and wandering into the woods, with a foolish hope the barrier would be permeated.

She takes joy in injecting herself where she doesn’t belong, living grand adventures with her friends and seeing what tomorrow has to offer in an uncertain existence.

Executive Director of the Centauri Corporation, and commander of their paramilitary “Dragoons”, but that’s a story for another day.

Once a normal human, deified through fate unknown, now lives simply to find entertainment and slowly subject the world to her will.

Perhaps as any of us do.

The interloper god who never belonged anywhere.

A person who never felt the belonging of the communities they were in, and always sought a place where they could be a part of a greater idea than themselves.

HER NAME IS TIPHERETH JUSTITA DRAGOON AND SHE IS VERY STRONG AND AWESOME. SHE LIKES TO PLAY WITH HER FRIENDS AND HELP PEOPLE OUT AND BEAT BAD GUYS. SOMETIMES SHE GETS UPSET BUT THATS OKAY BECAUSE WE ALL GET UPSET SOMETIMES. SHE IS VERY COOL AND LOVES ALL HER FRIENDS.

Oh, and I’ll try to get a thread on my OC posted today since I figured today was a good day to do so! It might just be a link to the twitter post though… 💔
