we r so back

Ok so with "missa is moon" being casually dropped on my head like a looney tunes anvil, I kinda wanna discuss further my decision to use different eclipse imagery for my Qphil and Qmissa designs as opposed to just sun and moon! I'll try and keep it quicky!!

So starting with Phil, I chose solar eclipes! Not only did it aid nicely to what I knew from the start would be his primarily dark colour palette, but it also reflected well on his character! In a solar eclipse, the sun's rays become a very primary focus, even with the moon being in front. Phil's character as a person is very bright and very genuine, but it is still at the expense of being entirely truthful about himself if he feels it would burden those around him. As a result, he is not completely prawnest with himself, and keeps the messier side of himself more bottled and hidden.

With Phil being a solar eclipse, the obvious choice for missa would be a lunar eclipse, or blood moon! This was the primary influence for the deeper reds in his colour palette, along with the demon motif. Where solar eclipses have more focus on the sun whilst remaining mostly hidden, lunar eclipses, inversely, show the moon on full display. Missa is just as genuine as Phil, but while he does often isolate himself, he is more frequently upfront with not feeling worth it. He is less of somebody to hide his emotions when they become too much, and more the kind to take those emotions away with him as to not be a bother. And of course, there was a fun irony in giving missa something like a blood moon- that is often made out to be scary, and giving him a bit of a creepy design along with it. It juxtaposes his personality in a way that I find really funny, lol.

WELCOME TO HERMIT-A-DAY MAY 2025!

Another year, another Hermit-a-Day May! I'm so thrilled to be able to bring this event to you all for the third year in a row.

THE RULES: 1. Any type of fanwork is welcome so long as it features, or is otherwise inspired by, the Hermit of the day. 2. Tag #hermitaday to have your fanwork reblogged, or submit it directly to the blog (Please note that while we recognize the value of fanworks involving more mature themes, and they can certainly count toward challenge completion if you're keeping track for yourself, content on this blog will be kept "PG-13" so that all may enjoy.). 3. Fanworks for one Hermit posted after the day rolls over to another Hermit's day (per the US Central time zone) will be reblogged in one big queue in June. 4. Traced or stolen work is NOT welcome. If we discover you have posted traced or stolen work, you will be given one chance to delete it and apologize, or you will be blacklisted from the blog. AI-generated/assisted pieces are similarly unwelcome and will not be featured on the blog. 5. We are not interested in seeing captions or tags in which you disparage your art/skills, and will not be reblogging posts where this happens. We're all improving all the time. Be kind to yourselves. 6. Technically not a rule, but we strongly recommend adding alt text or description to all images. Click here to learn more about writing alt text - it's pretty easy!

WHY SHOULD I PARTICIPATE? To show love to every Hermit, from the most to least subscribed, from those who have been on the server from day one to those who only joined this season! And because challenges are fun! And because we are once again out here for a good cause: we're running another fundraiser for Gamers Outreach, featuring art incentives by nine amazing artists. Learn more about our incentives in these posts:

BONUS DAY PROMPTS EXPLAINED UNDER THE CUT

FAVORITE "ALT" HERMIT - May 4th HoTGuY and Poultry-Man. Helsknight and Evil Xisuma. Renbob and - look, you get the idea. This server is full of theater kids ready to toss on an alternate skin and play into a brand new character at the drop of a hat. Who's your favorite?

OUTFIT SWAP - May 9th What would Doc look like in Cleo's Life Series leotard? How would Cub fare in Wels's armor? What laundry day mishap could lead Mumbo's suit to lose its sleeves like Skizz's? Only hilarity can come from this...

GROUPS AND COLLABS - May 14th This month is all about one Hermit a day... but what we really love is when they interact with each other. What does your favorite duo or group of Hermits get up to together?

FAVORITE BUILD - May 18th The Hermits have put thousands of hours into their builds, from cozy starter bases to the sprawling halls of Deepfrost Citadel, from idyllic natural landscapes to machines the size of mountains. Which builds have inspired you?

TFC - May 23rd While he may no longer be with us physically, TFC left behind him a legacy of quiet care and good humor, and Hermitcraft would not have been the same without him.

FRIENDS OF HERMITCRAFT - May 28th There are plenty of shows, podcasts, competitions, other servers, and more woven into the internet ecosystem around Hermitcraft, and plenty more people involved in them. Today is for celebrating all of those who, while they may not be Hermits themselves, exist and entertain in proximity to them.
