Fan Work Permissions

Statement from Armaina, Directly:

For the most part I’m pretty amicable to receiving fan works related to my characters and stories without any prior permission/notice. But since it can be a little unclear what other people’s comfort levels are and not everyone has the same threshold of what is acceptable or not, I want to write up this little document to give some direction as to what I am comfortable with as a starting point. This also applies to all fan-works, not just illustrations. Fiction, crafts, music, video, and all kinds of media are welcome.

First and foremost, keeping depictions of my characters, in-character, is incredibly important to me. My characters all mean something, they have their own allegories and symbolism and if you care about me at all as a person that is something I ask you respect. Likewise, I do not want dramatic alterations to my character's physical attributes. Please, no gender swapping, body modification, ethnicity changes or species swapping without my expressed permission.

That being said, here’s a general breakdown of what I’m comfortable with being drawn without my prior knowledge/permission and what would require permission first. Remember that the ‘in character’ caveat apply to this whole list.

Permission Not Required:

• General depictions
• Scenes from their stories
• Combat scenes appropriate to the character’s experience and skill
• Injury that is not fatal for the character (and doesn’t focus on pain/suffering)
• Swearing
• Alcohol/Smoking use
• Goofy/Silly things
• Nudity that is not provocative but also obscures genitals

Explicit Permission Required:

• Character interactions between mine and your own if we have never even talked to one another
• Explicit Nudity
• Overtly romantic depictions
• Sexually suggestive depictions
• Sexually explicit depictions
• Fetish/Kink, regardless if it’s sexual or not
• Hard drug use/misuse
• Difficult/complex topics
• Depictions of pain and suffering
• Getting a commission/request using one of my characters (Even if the subject matter is listed in the first category.)

If there is anything unclear or vague or a subject that is not explicitly listed, please just ask me! I keep all my contacts easy to find for a reason! I’m an extremely sociable person and I love getting DMs/Email!!
