For our first creative Campfire exploration in Guilds, I thought we could play with some of their tools and trappings. We can dig into how we see the Guild we belong to or even those we don’t. Let’s start by creating work (stories, poems, music, videos, sketches, artwork, literally anything you like) based on this:
Explore the magical creatures and familiars that you believe are associated with the Guilds.
I spend a lot of time working, but when I’m not doing that or following my fellow Mountaineers I write music.
I’m Balimora through and through. I love the emergence of patterns in things, so when I thought about this prompt I thought musically. I wanted to share a piece with you that I’ve called The Familiar. When I made it, and when I hear it, I can see a dancing fox tripping lightly through the midnight forrest glade. Here it is.
What an amazing song, Itsuki! I made a little ‘cover’ art for the song based on what you described. I’m a bit rusty with good old Photoshop, but I thought I’d give it a go. I am also a Balimora and could definitely see the fox as a familiar for the Guild. I can’t wait to see what else people come up with.
I should maybe also source my pictures - fox from here and background from here
Honestly I’ve been correlating an octopus with Thornmouth for a while now. I feel like an owl is like the really obvious one, but to me an octopus just fits. They are very intelligent animals and very complex, but I dunno, maybe not!
