Report a Policy Violation
For those who have many watchers, and for those who don’t have many, it is hard to know how one retains that interest as well as receive more. This article explores the basics of watchers and how we react to certain situations. Although it does not affect some deviants, and the tips are generally related to common sense, we hope the article is a worthwhile read and that the majority learn something from reading this.

Mokusetsu "Kiki" Taku
Winter Clothing Full reference sheet: [link] Kiki has changed his outfit for the winter and changed some of his fighting tactics because of it. He asked his former samurai clan for a favor and they gave some of their old clothing to Kiki and some for Suiko and Hanabi. The crest of his former samurai clan is imprinted on some of the clothing. Because of the cold, Kiki has added more layers of clothing. This caused Kiki to get rid of his "wood sleeve shield" as it was constricting his arm movement with the extra layers. Instead he wears bracers with a thin layer of metal that cover his forearm and back of his hand. He also wears the bracers for gloves. He still carries some woodblocks on him out of habit. His new shield is a large baren (a rubbing tool used for wood block prints) made out of strong wood. Rope is threaded through the handle, which allows Kiki to wear the baren on his back and easy to carry. If he needs to use it, he pulls one of the ropes in front of his chest to untie it. It’s good for defending against most physical attacks and some close range weapon attacks. Using the baren shield to defend against a very strong attack is questionable. He still wears his pack containing his extra spearheads and art supplies and still fights with his woodblock-carving tool. ---------- Notes: - Kiki's change of cloths for the Winter Ball [link] and Winter Bash [link] - This is not an official SDL profile since I changed the background color but I made it like this for fun. - Official profile: [link] SDL -  |
