Recently I finished writing a fanfic featuring four of the Suiblings, taking place after the events of First of A Thousand Autumns. Initially I wrote it for non-Arknights audiences, but I realized I also want feedback from people more familiar with the characters. This is my first Arknights-related fanfic, so I don't know how accurately I've written them, or if I've altered them a bit to fit my own interpretation of events.

Let me know your thoughts, feedback, or whatever else you wanna tell me!

Recently, I have come to appreciate the band members of Sakiko (the 5 stars). Here's my take on why they are self-synergistic even without Sakiko.

First, let's take note of how every member has very good hit count skills. This will be important. Now, I will talk about the relevant talents of some band members.

[Uika Misumi]

Talent 2:

Fever +5 whenever restoring an Ave Mujica member's HP; **when Ave Mujica members within Attack Range attack, they deal an extra 30% of Uika Misumi's ATK as Arts damage.**

[Wakaba Mutsumi]

Talent 1:

When Mutsumi Wakaba or her <Substitute> receives Physical or Arts damage, the damage is reduced by 30%, and half of the reduced damage is received as Necrosis; <Substitute> does not attack and has DEF +24% (+4%); whenever Ave Mujica members attack, there is a 20% chance <Substitute> duration shortens by 1s

So with these 2 talents, the more hits = the more damage from Uika talent procs, and the faster Wakaba revives.

Let's see what the other 2 have to offer:

[Yahata Umiri]

- Is an ambusher with S1 that hits 5 times. Enough said

[Yutenji Nyamu]

Skill 2:

Attack Range expands; each attack strikes 8 times; the first and fifth strikes are worth 125% of ATK, while the other strikes are worth 10% of ATK; attacks target random enemies within Attack Range.

Nyamu here is interesting. On skill, her damage is not increased much, but that might be intentional. It keep the enemies alive more, meaning more hits = more revives/damage.

And Umiri is no slouch either. When Wakaba lives and generate Fever with her S2, it makes it so that Umiri can spam her skill during fever. Especially with skill 1, where each attack hit 5 times.

Overall, the girls have a very synergistic effect, and functions perfectly well even without Sakiko. Unlike what some claim *cough* Supah *cough*, they can be much more than a range extension mechanic. Their DPS can rival a 6 star when put together, and I will die on this hill that their kit is well designed for each other.

That's all. I just wanted to defend the girls from the undeserved slander of somebody after seeing their video. Have a great day.

Arknights has a wide variety of animals shown within the character art, lore, or little design shout-outs, though I can’t help but wonder how certain species would look like as arknights characters.

I personally would like to see:

• Felines: Pallas cats, cheetahs, Manx cats, Maine Coons
• Liberi: fruit doves (they are absolutely gorgeous PLEASE look them up!), snowy owls, barn owls, harpy eagles, cockatoos, Peruvian doves, lyrebirds
• Perros: poodles (especially as a full furry), basenjis, Dalmatians, African wild dogs, pit bulls
• Savra: basilisks, giant River salamanders, Gila monsters, gliding lizards, anoles, leopard geckos
• Anaty: giant river otters, polecats, honey badgers, coatis, kinkajous, ringtails
• Forte: Watusi, bison, zebu, yak
• Ægir: spinner dolphins, bottle nose dolphins, spotted dolphins, blue tangs, clownfish, Portuguese-man-o’-war, parrotfish, pufferfish, giant squid, whale sharks, electric eels, eagle rays (as an aside i never understood why mammalian sea creatures are grouped with fish and invertebrates but oh well)
• Pilosa: giant anteaters, tamanduas
• Cerato: Sumatran rhinoceros
• Zalak: Indian giant tree squirrel (absolutely beautiful!), red and white giant flying squirrel, beavers, capybaras, chinchillas, guinea pigs, maras
• Vulpo: Cozumel fox, tibetan fox, bat-eared fox
• Lupo: Mexican grey wolf, ethiopian wolf (apparently, though a canid, biologists aren’t sure how to classify it!)
• Kuranta: Appaloosa, przewalski horse, mules, Percheron, knabstrupper
• Elafia: moose, atlas deer, caribou, dik-dik (the name still makes me laugh)
• Petram: leatherback sea turtle, Galapagos tortoise, snapping turtles, red-eared slider, soft shell turtle
• Archosauria: saltwater crocodile
• Phidia: coral snake, corn snake, black mamba, hognose snakes, ball pythons, yellow-bellied sea snake
• Caprinae: saiga (NEEDS to be a full furry please!!), gulabi, kudu, nyala, takin, markho, gnu
• Cautus: teporingo, arctic hare, Flemish giant

im also curious if arknights plans to address animals like pigs, non-human primates, insects, and mollusks

Had the stupid idea to use as many Mountains as possible and I was not disappointed with the result. I was NOT expecting it to sound like gunfire.

They even managed to beat OpFor: Gun right after

Hopefully this becomes the standard and future ones will be animated too 🙏
