Last minute submission! Name: Rifty Personality: Rifty is a kind-hearted, benevolent being like Kirby. However, unlike Kirby, Rifty is more shy and introverted, though they still enjoy the close company of their friends. Backstory & Lore: Riding in from a winter breeze, Rifty arrived in Dream Land from a mysterious inter-dimensional rift. They have no memory of who they were before, the only thing they remember is waking in Kirby’s house after Kirby took them in from the storm. Rifty has been living in Dream Land for a couple of months now, doing their best to settle into their new peaceful life, all while still being haunted by the past they can’t quite grasp. Bonus Images/Ref Art:
Guys I swear I’ve been working on the Rifty stuff, I’ve just been focusing on other…things
Chapter 2 is coming soon I swear
“So much to do yet so little time to do it! Let’s hurry, Rifty!”
The OC tournament begins soon! I’m hoping I’ll have the material I’m preparing for it ready soon! Let’s wish Rifty the best of luck before the chaos settles in!

DAMN RIFTY OUT HERE FIGHTING FOR THIER LIFE RN
‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through Dream Land
All slept, except Artemis, who worked on a plan
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that Santa Claus soon would be there;
The dreamlanders were nestled all snug in their beds;
While visions of gifts and sweets danced in their heads;
Kirby & Rifty were dreaming of treats,
and Meta Knight wished for new slippers to warm up his feet;
Bandana Dee would love apple juice, made sweet and cold,
While Dedede could use a new hammer, to replace the old;
Sir Artemis swore he’d bring his plan into fruition-
Spreading happiness and cheer across Pop Star was his mission!
Away from the Halberd he flew in a flash,
blazing off into the night with a dash;
The moon in the breast of the new-fallen snow,
Gave a lustre of midday to objects below;
Across the land, he soared through the skies,
With his magic sack of gifts, and a gleam in their eyes;
A bundle of toys he had flung on his back, he looked like a peddler just opening their pack;
His eyes- how they twinkled! his dimples, how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his face like a cherry!
In just one little gaze, they seemed to wink,
And presents would suddenly appear before one could blink;
A wink of his eyes and a twist of his head,
He was here to let Dream Land know there was nothing to dread!
When night had come to an end, and his bag left emptied,
Sir Artemis returned home knowing his good deed had been well attempted;
He returned to his bed with sleepy, tired eyes,
Waiting for the joy of Pop Star to light up the sunset skies;
When Christmas morning had come, the dreamlanders were filled with glee,
For everything they had ever wanted was sitting right underneath the tree!
Rifty was delighted and Kirby had cheered,
While Meta Knight and the king were wondering when the presents had appeared;
Artemis smiled and with a twinkle in his sight,
he happily proclaimed
“Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night”
The End
HYPING UP THE SQUAAAAAD
Today’s propaganda attack is extra special!
I want to cheer on as many people as possible! Since I’ve already done posts for these four in previous rounds, I’ve decided to do one for all of them together! All of them are my friends, so please vote for them!
- Rifty is kind and fun to be around! They’re also purple, which is the best colour. They went out of their way to pose for me to help me draw their horns last time I drew them, and I think that’s really nice of them! I still need to do something for them to repay the favour. This post doesn’t count!
- Peony is smarter than most adults I’ve met, and she’s even younger than my little sister! She has really cool soul magic powers, and even though she’s much smarter than me, she isn’t ever mean to me about it. In fact, she’s a real sweetheart! And her parents are really nice too!
- When I first met Noir, I thought he seemed really cool and I wanted to be friends with him. But now that I am friends with him, I can see that in fact… he is really cool! He’s nice to kids and I respect that a lot! He also once offered to scare away anyone who bullied me. I’d do the same for him!
- Mr Mapobas is a royal mage! He’s very important! And yet he’s been really nice to me and offered me lots of advice, even though I’m just some random noddy who does magic tricks for a living. He’s one of my favourite people to talk to. And he’s super fashionable! And he has cool hair!
Rifty belongs to @dizzy-dudd , Peony belongs to @giantchasm , Noir belongs to @desultory-novice and Mapobas belongs to @sacrificecage

A short introductory comic about the events of Rifty’s arrival in Dream Land! (I’d like to thank @ommetaphobian for helping me with the snow on the cover image, this artwork wouldn’t be the same without their help!)
This comic briefly describes Rifty’s perspective of their arrival. I also have a short story I wrote that detail the same events from Kirby’s perspective that I’ll hopefully post here sometime soon! I’ve accumulated quite the amount of handwritten OC stories over the past few months 💜
Edit: You can read up on Kirby’s perspective right here!
(Also don’t worry, I have been paying attention to the questions you’ve been giving Rifty & Artemis. I had started working on this comic around the same time I created the ask blog, so I got a little bit busy. I’m hoping that I’ll be able to give you Rifty & Artemis’s responses soon! Stay tuned! 🌹)
OMG MY BABIES THEY’RE SOOOO CUTE!!! I absolutely adore the coloring here! They look so happy! :DDD
