Lore

Welcome to the shadowy netherworld of Anima. The Kimoji dwell in a surreal land where nothing is as it seems, where reality twists and bends with time. These moody monsters are born from the secret worlds in our minds, sometimes beautiful and sometimes ferocious. They know our loves, our hates, our desires, and our fears.Kimoji appear feminine but are gender-neutral beings as they are interdimensional manifestations. They do often express themselves as feminine but use a variety of pronouns. The elder Kimoji often refer to each other and themselves as "ones" (this one, that one), similar to the language of faerykind.You, human adventurer, must navigate through their world, face the fears that haunt you, and befriend the Kimoji to help you find the way home.

Creators

The Kimoji were created and managed by a two person, family studio that have combined their love for web3 with art.

Kipheo, or Ash, is an independent artist who has done mainly freelance commission work and character design work for cosplayers, authors, and fans. Ash's daytime job is a public youth services librarian. Ash has hand-designed the kimoji using Procreate on her iPad Pro, and has created the website and promotional graphics. Outside of art and parenting, she also loves RPG video games like Zelda, Pokemon, and Elder Scrolls. Follow on Twitter

Vanguard / Van is a crypto enthusiast, stay-at-home dad, and computer technician. He runs the Discord channel and handles the minting and listing of the Kimoji. He is also into gaming, loves My Hero Academia, and watches a looot of Star Trek. Follow on Twitter

Art Process

Each art piece starts with a base template that was entirely designed by the artist, Kipheo.New layers are added for every single trait, such as hair, eyes, horns, and tails. These are then duplicated and re-designed and adjusted. Our project currently has 100s of layers, each purposefully designed to match our motif, color palettes, and world by an experienced artistic eye. Our artist is also very passionate about world-creation and storycrafting, which she teaches professionally to students as a librarian.
You can view process videos on the artist's TikTok @kipheo.art.
Kipheo also has 1/1 artwork available as NFTs, which you can find here:

Goodwill

Donations made to NAMI to support mental health in the USA.Our NFTs are created on Polygon blockchain, which means less fees for all parties involved, and are better for the environment than standard ethereum NFTs.Just a reminder that Polygon can occasionally be unstable, so delays for minting and listing may occur.All news will be announced in our Discord Channel!

Thirdweb Contract Vulnerability

On 04/12/23 The Kimoji Team became aware of a vulnerability in ALL contracts provided by Thirdweb.As per direction from Thirdweb The Kimoji Staking platform contract will need to be locked to provide safety to our community members and ensure that no malfeasance happens if the vulnerability becomes an exploit.We are working diligently to inform community members to UNSTAKE their NFTs from the contract as soon as possible - as the longer this contract is unlocked the vulnerability remains.In the meantime as an ecosystem wide measure, after unstaking proceed to https://revoke.cash and revoke all contract permissions until further notice or all communities become aware and fix the vulnerabilities.We are working to roll out planned replacement upgrades to staking and utilities ahead of schedule to compensate for this unfortunate event, please see social channels to stay informed.Further information and questions regarding this exploit should be directed to @thirdweb on X.The Kimoji Team
