Runs June 1, 2023 - July 14, 2023
Guess who's back, back again?
Roy's back, it's June, time to love yourself and everybody else (tell your friends?) It's Pride Month!
Pride Blends will be rarely showing up in any loot-dropping activities all month! And, of course, we have events!
Roy says: Back in the day when I was a little tyke, my grand-giver Ahrah would tell me all about when Ixi first met humans.
One of the things Rixixi would do for humans is protect them in protests for human rights, 'cause Rixixi had those rights back on Sxriix, so we didn't understand why humans didn't. Plus we were strong and stuff, so we could act as bodyguards no problem. We could take a hit.
The stuff that stood out to me the most was the stories about protests for gay and trans rights and the like. Those really stuck with me, and nowadays, I run a mean celebration here on Sxriix. We're lucky that we as Rixixi can celebrate and don't have to worry about someone keeping us down. So come on, let's celebrate love!
Events
The Main Event:
Roy says: So long as we're celebrating pride month, let's all get together and have some kind of party! Bring your friends, bring the people you love, bring yourself, and show some good vibes!
Please depict your Chasm-Connected character with loved ones (romantic, platonic, familial, etc all okay - someone they enjoy being around) celebrating together! All Chasm-Connected species can be used for this if they have some form of masterlist entry or reference - Rixixi, B-NOMALY, Aexent, Chasm Horseman - the sapient open species like Arakantis and O'urtn'x can be included as well if you have a clear reference, this is just to make sure the character looks like themself!

(More Group Images: 2018 Pride - Halloween 2019)
This one will have a background (and a Roy) like the more recent ones!

What do I do if I want to enter but can't post my entry publicly for my own privacy?
You should be able to post your entry offsite or on sta.sh and submit it to the prompt - let us know if there's any trouble with this! If this is still too public, note Magmatixi or contact an admin to let us know you need to send your entry to us directly.
Are there any rules for what can/can't be submitted to the group image?
- A general rule in Roy's collabs (and I mean, Rixixi in general) is 'be good to each other'. Don't be mean, don't bully anybody. Just have fun.
- We prefer a transparent background for images, but if you can't do that with your program, we can edit it for you! Fullbody is also preferred to fit a character in the scene but waist-up is still legal and can honestly allow for creative posing if you want, haha. Including props/foreground aspects is also fine!
- You can enter multiple of your characters, but one character should only appear once in the image.
- Collabs are okay! Gift art of a friend's character is okay, but does need permission from the other party to show up in the group image!
