What did toliki do to get his marks?
Oh shootdang I just accidentally deleted the whole text so here we go again I guess.
The answer is that he didn't do anything but be born different, and because he thinks differently to other Arfri, and questions things, and that kind of thing ... So his own body structure changed to display that to the others of his kind. This will probably make more sense when I show how strict normal Arfri are. Just one look at him and they know he's a terrible soldier who won't obey instructions blindly, which could compromise a mission. (sigh... there's more to life than the mission, guys...)
Tumblr media
And because he thinks everyone of his own species hates him, he starts out thinking that he's just wrong. You don't see it much in the Hello comic, because he's wandering around in a daze trying to make sense of the new world he just got dropped into. But I hope I can show in the early pages, how uncomfortable he is with the conflict going on in his own head.
Some time after Hello, he meets with the king of Arfri (lucky bastard!!!) and a really long conversation changes his perspective. Scally didn't know at all what was happening to the creatures he created and offers to fix things from above.
Tumblr media
And thus he becomes the confident and proud Toliki that I use to answer the asks here. When he's no longer being thrown around by the plot in Gravity and has had a moment to actually think about stuff and become his own person.
Tumblr media
Ah, good for him. -u-

xD
like Toriel from undertale reacting to when you call her mom. You know???????????
Tumblr media
Well then, call me whatever you like!
or something.
But ... thankfully, Pelor hasn't seen as many children get killed.
Mostly because he is the god of HEALING so if he sees anyone injured he fixes it right away xD
Yes, he goes by he/him. He is in fact a cis dude. Gods can be dudes. What about ZEUS???
Tumblr media
*he turns around and walks closer* Hm? Did you say something?
*and him being closer further blocks the view of the two you were trying to look at*
Also he is good. He is the goodest. Lawful good or whatever you call it. Also the daddest.

Actually, no one has to memorise the colour rules. It literally only comes up once, when Speaker shows up and Creator asks about their outfit ... But just know that there are just Reasons for Everything in Gravity xD

Because of the communication rules in the third circle, characters in gravity tend to prefer certain colours of clothing. Colour choice and which clothes have which colour, can basically loosely translate to who they are as a person. But normal human characters aren't really aware of this.
Red - Authority
Orange - Determination or motivation
Yellow - Getting overexcited
Green - On the side of nature
Blue - Spiritual power
Purple - Corruption, instability, or the immesurable power of a god
Pink - life, blood, royalty, leadership
Brown - Humble (or literal sickness if the creature is magical)
White - Waiting for instruction in this area
Grey - Have made decisions but wiling to hear other sides
Black - Devotion/responsibility/stiffness
Places on the body:
Head/neck: What you say out loud. May contradict with what you actually think.
Torso: Actual morals/beliefs/opinions.
If sleeves are a different colour to the torso: How you recieve events/perspective on stuff that happens to you.
Trousers: Where you want to go in life, work, and personal goals.
Shoes: The absolute foundation of the core of your being.
Contradictory colours or many colours on one item of clothing (excluding stripes) means more chaos.

I have been meaning to ask..
Why are the marks on toliki on the places they are?
Like, why cogs in the neck, hands, feet and eyes?
Is there any particular reason?
This is very long and full of spoilers, so get settled in and please keep your arms, legs and feelings inside the vehicle at all times!!!
<3
A long time ago, a fight ensued between Traebit and Deity (a man who was involved with the creation of arfri, Toliki's species)
As expected of Traebit, he was using mainly psychological means to torment his opponent, and began to step closer.
Deity's lover Scally (also involved in the creation of arfri) has had enough and runs over there to at least get in between the two.
But Traebit, excited on how much his words are affecting Deity, decides to strike.
Deity pushes Scally away.
Blood goes everywhere and Scally out of instinct covers his face, and so when the blood lands on him it lands kind of like this.
Tumblr media
The chaos of bleeding and also seeing his lover covered in blood but calm enough to comfort him … how do I describe it? It became a core memory for Deity, and influenced the creation of Arfri, which he and Scally were working on together.
Tumblr media
And so the body parts of Scally that had blood on them later became an important part of the shifter uniform:
Tumblr media
In combination with colour rules, where black means responsibility/devotion and white means a new start/open to new possibilities …
The uniform is black meaning you should be a responsible shifter when you wear it … but sometimes, as shown by the white accents, it is necessary to break the small rules to keep the peace or serve the greater good
The fact that these same areas are where Toliki has his markings ...
Tumblr media
...means that he has basically been told by the universe that no matter what new information or new opportunity comes his way, he is still a corrupted member of his species.
By the way, it would probably repulse other arfri to even see purple, let alone have purple in the areas of the body usually reserved for "open to new possibilities"
The reason there are cog shapes is because the category of creature he is is called a Cog. It's like having a tattoo of a rose if your name is Rose: A really obvious, non-metaphotical, slap-in-the-face reminder that he is Different and no matter what clothes he wears to hide it, his body will still display that he is CORRUPTED and should REMEMBER that he is a Cog even if he cannot BE a good cog.
The order of creature categories goes like this:
Unlimited - Gods, etc. Residents of the third circle e.g. Traebit, Pelor, Creator, other creator gods etc. Nothing stops them from doing what they want forever.
Wish Makers - ~Humans~ and similar creatures. They are only one level below gods themselves. They are not "unlimited" just because they HAVE LIMITS. Even if all diseases and ailments are cured, a body can only do so much. You only have so much time. You have to take breaks to eat and poop. Sometimes wish makers ask gods for special powers, but it's rare that this is actually given.
Immaterial - OH, IF ONLY I HAD A BODY!!! This category is for those who maybe have wishes, but cannot even begin to work on their goals because they don't have physical bodies to experience the world with. Sometimes they possess a physical creature, but it doesn't last for long. They prefer humans because of our sophisticated language abilities and the fact that we pride ourselves in making artworks. Some examples of immaterial are ghosts, and also ideas waiting to be born.
The Devoted - No wishing. No desire to change. Humans might make dolls and pretend to be gods. Immaterials might possess someone and pretend to own a body. But the devoted is a category that has no intention of becoming something different. It's worth noting that they are not BENEATH wish makers/immaterial, just seperate from them. (Imagine a 40 year old learning to drive for the first time and the instructor is 20. Maybe in life the older one knows more and could guide the younger one but in the case of driving, the younger one knows more.) Plants are in this category. All they do is grow and grow without any regard for whose perfect lawn they are interrupting. the Guardians are in this category too (remind me to make a post about the guardians lmao)
Cogs - Truly the only ones who ever get anything done. But it's such a shame that they have no free will. Arfri, for example, were created to serve shifters and protect them from evil. Humanise them all you want, but cogs are literally living tools. When was the last time a letter (in a word (in a sentence (in a book))) said to you "hold on i need to rest" ??? When a pen no longer produces ink, do you not throw it away? (unless it's a hello kitty pen, and then it still has a function; to be pretty, even if it doesn't write.)

Violet and orchid
Im too curious
bro if you don't select a character you are asking about i will be forced to answer for all 200+ ocs.
Just kidding. I know you're asking about the Hello boys.
Violet - Do a voice claim for your OC
I am thoroughly convinced I used to have a voice claim for Toliki, but I've forgotten it completely. I'm still on the hunt so stay tuned or whatever.
here's Traebit though.
youtube
This and also some System Of A Down Songs like "accidents happen" from the song Kill Rock N Roll
.....Enjoy, I guess.
Orchid - What is your OC's biggest fear?
Toliki's is being alone/abandoned. Not like when you walk in a room and no one's there, but like when each of your friends hits you with hard betrayal and leaves forever. *cough*
Traebit's is like ... softness, weakness, friendship, relying on anyone ... But it's more disgust than fear. Being physically restrained maybe? Or like overpowered by a stronger creature.

Uhh... is ships allowed? A-asking for a friend
* sweats *
I was under the impression that everyone was shipping already, but I assume you mean POSTING drawings/writing ???
Just remember most of the humans are under 18 so I wouldn't reccomend ... but considering I just posted a page of Hello, this is probably related to Toliki and Traebit .... in which case uh, knock yourself out??? xD

If i, theoretically, wanted to Cook and eat toliki. How would he taste?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So like,
There is a kind of food I can't remember the name of.
Something like whisking an egg and adding sugar and baking lightly?
It's white and fluffy but also crunchy. Like cake icing but lighter. Like whipped cream but dry.
And you can also eat it on its own, I'm pretty sure I saw them in packets with nothing else added, like little scoops of ice cream.
It's bothering me that I can't remember what it's called.
But yeah. That consistency.
But with the kind of flavour you get in fruity chewing gum.
Want more Toliki shenanigans? Read the Hello comic ~

Can i pet? 🥺👉👈
Tumblr media
The team is geared up to "record" the hello comic.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This was asked immediately after a question about Traebit so I assume it was about him, but I just thought I'd add Toliki in as well.
Anon is about to get their hand bitten off by Traebit.
Toliki however loves being pet.

Traebit why the bunny ears? You look cute on that <3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
He hates being called cute :U
They are *his* ears. After a couple hundred years, he decided to make his shed fur into a hat to wear around his head to make it seem like he's wearing a hat with ears, to fool new creatures.

Who is traebit?
Tumblr media
Sigh.
He's the one true asshole, one true villain, force of nature of this whole song and dance.
He has a permanent black eye from the time he pissed off a fellow demigod and was punched with the full force of A DEMIGOD'S RAGE
Noteable achievements:
Winner of asshole of the year 1,000 years in a row
Destroyed the mind of an innocent man
Reacted with hostility when a mute character was trying to find help for an injured person
Ripped off a guy's wing
"Everyone is beneath me."
"Too many good guys in here."
"I'm BORED. I wanna KILL."
Canonically has a redemption arc but I haven't figured out the whole story of that yet. After meeting Toliki and seeing his wholesome curiosity for other (foreign/alien) creatures, Traebit realises there's much more to interacting with others than just beating people up and hearing them suffer: Sometimes people are more interesting when they're comfortable and tell you their stories. So as much as it pains him, he asks for help and tries to make friends, just not with the same people he's been hurting for centuries.

Is arfri a species then?
ye
Tumblr media
Top row: Royal Arfri (only 2 of them right now) (something that previously wasn't an Arfri becomes one.)
1 Salvatore Crawford He made Arfri, he is their King, a mythical figure none of them have met but still love and worship him. Used to be a human, hence why he is a Royal.
2 Sybe Not all creatures are strong enough to percieve ACTUAL GOD, so this is another form Creator takes, to avoid blinding lower beings. A temporary downgrade.
Middle row: just normal guys (these are named, but there could also be a village out there somewhere, I just don't need to identify all of these villagers)
3 Silay Summoned during Gravity to help humans.
4 Ker One of the first Arfri who formed long ago but shows up again in the modern day.
5 our beloved Toliki Had some trouble, wandered for a bit, has only questions.
Last guy:
6 The basic building blocks of all arfri. Little scout guy that flies around. They have no names or identities. Like a hive mind of bees. There could be 1 or there could be 1,000 depending on what you intend when you summon them.
