Hi all!

Ever wanted to have your character featured in a story with Kothu? Or do you have an idea for a Kothu story that you'd really like to read? Good news for you, I'm opening new story commission slots on my writer account,  silverzekrom!

I'm keeping the submission window open until Monday, October 27, 3pm CET. You can read about how to apply, my ToS and my prices in this journal.

Don't hesitate if you have any feedback or question! :]

Oi everyone!

Just a heads-up for those following this account and who are not into fart content: from now on, I will only feature the "[Fart]" title tag in the title of alternative versions featuring farts (to differentiate them from the others non-fart/other kinks). If an artwork only has a "fart version" (like Foul Play), the tag won't be in the title. For the stories featuring fart scenes, the CW is displayed directly on the thumbnail.

I make this change because the "warning" effect of this tag has turned redundant with the updated FA tag system: I consider that if you don't want to see fart stuff, you'll have muted this tag anyway. Since I use FA's tag system for every post, the item tagged "fart" will already be blurred for you. It allows me to make the titles lighter and not have to "title tag" 90% of my uplaods :D

So yeah, tldr: use the FA tag system if you don't want to see fart content here!

Take care,
-Drad

Hello there,

As you probably have seen, display names are now available for anyone on FurAffinity! Your first Display Name is free, but if you're a free plan user (like I am), there is a 7 days cooldown to change to a new one.

I changed this "Kothu" account's name to "Drad" on the day it released, as it's the pseudo I use online and I don't "speak" as Kothu anymore (like I did on the first months of this account). I also don't wish to be addressed as Kothu and wanted to make clear what name to use. However, I know it may be confusing for some that I have two accounts named "Drad" on FA (this  Kothu account and my writer account  SilverZekrom). These are both managed by me, so it makes sense when you know it (if I had the choice, I might have even fused the two by now), but I'll respect my original choice of managing an account dedicated to anything Kothu-related, from the big guy itself, lore info or the other characters (Fenri, Parker, Gahardon, etc) that form the "Kothuverse".

As such, when the cooldown on this account will be over, I will rename it "Drad - Kothuverse". It's the best name I found so far for this account. It might change in the future of course, but at least it won't be exactly my writer account.

That's all! Not sure why I felt the need to write a whole journal about it but thanks for your attention nevertheless! Life on Internet can be messy sometimes.

Cheers,
-Drad

Hey everyone!

After gathering some feedback, I have opened a cloud repository for hosting Kothu animations. I have removed them from YouTube, since a few people told me there was a risk that my channel could be striked down for highly suggestive/adult cartoon content if manually checked.

I figured I would also upload Kothu audios there too. Even if FurAffinity can host these files, it'll be another place where to find them.

You can access the Kothu MEGA folder here.

Don't hesitate if something doesn't work out or if you have any feedback or questions.

Cheers,
-Drad

Hi everyone!

After announcing it on my writer account, I'm open for story commissions! You can have more info on this journal.

And like last time, I'm open to pitches who include Kothu or any of my other OCs :) (more about that in my ToS below)

>> My prices << | >> My ToS (read them) <<

Send your pitches to me in DMs on Bluesky (@RatedKforKothu), Telegram (@KothuDraconid) or Discord! I'll close pitch submissions tomorrow and then choose my favorite 3. You can find all the info, prices, submission process, what info to include in your pitch, and more in my ToS above.

Don't hesitate if you have any question 🫡

Hello all!

I'm migrating from Twitter to Bluesky! I'll be deleting posts off my Twitter accounts (SFW + NSFW) and will lock them. From now on, I will only post new stuff on Bluesky first, then here on FA. You can follow me at the links below:

- NSFW account (including Kothu's huge butt, usual fart fiction and anything frisky): >> RatedKforKothu on Bluesky <<
- SFW account (professional too, keep it SFW or be yeeted): >> Drad on Bluesky <<
- My game studio account to follow news and see art about the games with gay dragons I make with other cool people: >> Better With Dragons on Bluesky <<

Don't hesitate if you have any questions :)

Take care,
-Drad

Hey all, Drad here!

A bunch of things happened in the past years of having Kothu around, so I figured I'd make an update here too :)

Social Media & FA accounts

- The social media I have can be found on this Linktree. I run these myself.
- I have a MEGA folder where I post Kothu audio & animations
- I have a YouTube channel where I post a few fart scene compilations (when I find some that haven't been shared already). Please behave appropriately there, it's public YouTube, not e621.

As a reminder, I run 2 FA pages:
- the  SilverZekrom page as my writer account,
- this  Kothu page dedicated to gathering all of the Kothu creations in the same place.

The stories I write featuring Kothu are shared in full on my writer account. Story posts here will redirect to the original posts on my writer account. The Kothu stories that I commission to other writers will be only shared here, on this Kothu page.

About Kothu

- I consider Kothu as my OC, not a representation of myself. Please refer to me out-of-character as Drad, and talk about Kothu in third person, as a fictional character.
- Do not use Kothu for RP accounts or purposes. Create your own OC! Or even your own draconid if you want to: the species is free to use. You can find lore about draconid throughout Kothu stories, in his character sheet, or this D&D Homebrew Playable Species I wrote on draconids.
- You are free to create fanart (artworks, stories, etc.) featuring Kothu, but please don't ask me to endorse it. I can answer questions about Kothu if you have any, but I won't provide detailed feedback on fanart. I will interact with it as I see fit.

I might update this journal as things go. In all cases, thank you for your support and appreciation for this big draconid <3

Take care!

Hey everyone,

Thank you for watching my account here! Just in case you haven't noticed, this account serves mainly as Kothu's art gallery, whether it is SFW, NSFW, or it features gassy jokes or content.

If you want more, I suggest you to follow the Twitter account for daily thoughts, micro-stories that are too short to be shared here, and every artwork that end up being posted here (even WIP teasing and all). But it's also more convenient to interact with y'all since everything on this is more, well, social.

So just in case you'd like to have a regular dose of draconid: https://twitter.com/KothuDraconid

If you're fine just watching my FA or if don't have Twitter for whatever reason, you're totally fine too! I'm still passing by around here from time to time.

Cheers

Hello everyone! Hope you're doing well~

Since I'm on Twitter I can't see my own media posts (which means every pic I tweet) and it starts to annoy me, especially because I'll be sharing commissioned art in the future.
Instead of my media, Twitter displays the following message: "this media isn't available since it displays content you've chosen not to display". I've ticked the boxes "the content I post may be offensive" (because of my NSFW tweets and retweets) and "show me sensitive content"... can it come from that? I wouldn't understand why since it works perfectly on web-browser Twitter, and only does this to me on my phone (which is a pain since I mostly use Twitter on mobile).

Could anyone here knowing Twitter have a clue about how to solve it? Internet doesn't help sadly...

Here's my original Tweet about this to show you how it looks on my mobile: https://twitter.com/KothuDraconid/s.....650009600?s=20

Heyo people, first journal here.

…

…Nothing much to say except “hi”.

I dunno if I’ll use these journals a lot though, not much of a blogger.

If you have any question about me or my "characters", go ahead in the comments.

Glad to meet you all~
