Originally, characters in the senderverse didn't have a preference for clothing at all, but as the first thread went on it felt like I should make them more modest, and I discovered a love for designing outfits for characters. I'm not sure why I decided on pants being a status symbol, but it seemed fitting for whatever reason.
As for aves having arms/hands, it isn't a coincidence that aves lack the characteristic flying ability that birds are supposed to have. I like the concept of creatures that traded the freedom of wings for the ability to create and manipulate one's surroundings. It's a bit of a leftover idea I had from very early on.
Snowball's half mammal and half avian biology probably doesn't make much sense, but it's supposed to be anomalous. I can agree that it’d be a nightmare to make sense of it all.

I will return to working on senderverse quests. One hundred percent - I will never ever abandon any of my quests so long as I live. I want to eventually finish all of my quests (all my ave quests included) before I decide to retire questing.

I can say that >>137580 sums my perspective pretty well. lago is fairly open to other people using his stuff, and I asked for his permission to use his alien species as well as technology and background worldbuilding. Would I call tobak quest a fan quest? maybe in a very loose sense. The quest itself is made so that it requires no prior knowledge of AQ to understand or enjoy, and I aim to make the whole thing self-contained when I finish it. The two hard rules that the quest follows is that it will always follow the perspective of a tobak and that the quest will always take place on the contained setting of Saxum VIII. All that aside, Tobak quest will probably be the only time I ever make a quest that uses elements of someone else’s established worldbuilding.

I can understand this sort of perspective, and I can tell you that I do tobak quest because I enjoy it, and not because I'm some sort of lago clone, and I'm not using anything for clout - if anything, I aim to lean more into original territory with tobak quest the further it goes.
I understand that this can give the impression that I neglect my other quests, but I am unable to work on everything at once effectively. I've tried in the past to work on things in rotation, but it doesn't work well for me.

I made the quest because I wanted to make the quest, the partially shared worldbuilding is because I enjoyed parts of the AQ setting, and it felt like a better decision than making a sci fi quest from scratch when I’m not a huge sci fi fan. I'm not doing anything solely for fans or attention, which might be why it took so long for me to make this discussion thread.
>Even the disc thread thumbnail can definitely come off as trying to copy Lago maybe a little too much for some.
Not like I was trying to be subtle! I have taken heavy influence from lago's way of doing things, but besides that I think we are fairly different people. All the comparisons are fair, but just know that I aim to be more of myself as time goes on. I certainly don't plan on living in someone else’s shadow.
All that said, people can talk more about me being a hack fraud, but I think I've addressed all I can. All of these views were expected, and nothing is going to discourage me from continuing any quests until I complete them in a satisfying way. I didn't know this many people enjoyed RtS, It's eye opening to say the least. If there really is this much demand for it, I should maybe lean more into dedicating more time to it.
Here is a picture of Bry from Tobak Quest thread 3 (an obvious reference to a certain someone from a certain donut/tippler quest)
