new looks!
SSO-OCs is a blog where users can submit their Star Stable Online OCs! Once you submit your OC(s) they’ll be placed on a page with their basic information and links. Kind of like the in-game journal function for NPCs!
We’ll also reblog and tag content relating to your OC so it’s quick and easy to find!
While this blog is not finished yet, I would be happy to begin accepting submissions to fill the page up with! If you want to submit, please DM me with the following information:
Character name
A reference photo (it can just be an in-game screenshot if you want)
A little blurb about your character/basic information (like age, gender, sexuality, etc)
At least one link (maximum of 4) relating to your character
Examples include: Pinterest boards, character sheets, Tumblr blogs (including the one you submitted it with), playlists
Any more information you would like me to know (optional)
Please reblog and share this so others are aware! Thank you!
spoilers below the cut for catherine’s memories
so i was both happy and a little underwhelmed by the ending. I did like that justin came along for the last memory, because it added a nice touch into the narrative. i’m probably going to make a full length post soon elaborating, but I thought the conclusion of this story was beautiful, with some story elements a touch out of left field.
however, I do have an issue with one thing. i didn’t like the whole “everyone’s special and can conduct Aideen” angle they went for. The message is great out of game, but game-wise, it seems odd. @writingonjorvik made a good point, in that this reveal takes away the mc’s uniqueness amongst NPCs. there isn’t really a reason why we are the mc, since NPC’s can also accomplish what we can. like, i think this angle would work in a medium(movie, TV) that wasn’t so interactive, but i digress.
i do think that catherine has a limited understanding of Aideen, however. in the southern harvest counties memory, we see Evergray perform magic to draw out Aideen. this doesn’t work, and we see Catherine’s horse Nemo disappear into the light of Aideen, breaking their bond. It seems to be implied that Catherine also went too close, as she disappeared briefly. since Aideen had the bond between horse and rider, and Catherine lost that, I think her understanding of Aideen shattered. Since she got too close to both light and darkness, she only sees the parts of Aideen, not herself as Aideen. this is also sort of based on @writingonjorvik‘s post about Aideen’s gift, as I liked Amelia’s thoughts on catherine’s incomplete understanding of Aideen. I highly recommend you read the post, which I will link at the end.
overall, I thought the ending was great. I did like the implication at the end that the previous incarnations of Aideen are all in the light of Aideen, along with catherine. I still have some questions, but overall, I thought the ending fit.

mistfall race: haha :) youre done for
do you think jorvikians are just used to wednesdays being these incredibly bizarre world altering days of the week…horses phase into existence…people they know start looking and moving a little different…sometimes the land itself shifts…like for them thats just what wednesdays in their regular routine lives are like. the individual events might be weird to them but the fact that theyre happening isnt, because weird things always just happen on wednesdays
i’m not sure how i feel about this
Obey me and my crocs mon cheri.
The idea has been toyed with and now it has arrived, I am hosting SSOblr's first (and hopefully annual) awards show!
The awards are vast and the blogs to be nominated are many, and I need your help narrowing down who should go in what category by nominating others, or yourself, to win. You're allowed to nominate several people to the same category, and if you don't know who to nominate for certain categories you are naturally allowed to skip them
Please note that this is not the official vote. This is the nominations to different categories. The voting will take place over a 2-day period starting October 1st.
