This blog is now archived.
It's been quite awhile since I updated, and I suspect this comes as no surprise since several weeks ago I took down my YouTube and all my videos. I don't mind reuploads of any of my fandom content, but I would politely request my original content not be re-uploaded. My fandom designs or aus are still as open source as they were when I originally published them, I don't want to interrupt any potentially ongoing projects they were involved in. If I had a map part I made for you that was taken down and you did not have a chance to download it for your project and still want it, feel free to message me, and I can find the file.
I have been using the name Draikinator since I was nine; many people know it was my autogenerated Neopets username, and that my actual name, Nate, is even short for DraikiNATor. This was a hard decision to come to but I've chosen to retire it and the affiliated accounts. Like I said in my final video, I don't think I am able to responsibly hold so much power and attention in a fandom space and I don't want to be an influencer or a bnf or anything of the sort anymore. I'd much rather return to being a passive user of the internet and consumer of content. I don't wish to cause any further pain to anyone, especially those who feel hurt by me in the past.
I am retiring my deviantart as well and any other accounts I have will be updated and abandoned as required. If you would like to block me and make sure you do not interact with any of my sideblogs again on this platform, my main account is @charadreemurr.
I promise I never set out to hurt anyone, but I know that I have, no matter what I wanted. Thank you for your time and your support and your interest over the years. I am so, so sorry for the mistakes I have made, the many examples of poor judgement and impulsive reactions I've committed, for the negative impact I had on those around me.
