SoD's Master "To Do List" Post

UTAU:
VoiceBanks:
-Shizu VCV 5.1 (as labeled on my computer. This does not sound good)
-Shizu VCV Stronger nasally set (orz that's the way it turned out. Only good for slower songs.)
-Shizu VCV August'13 Redux (Recorded and partially oto'd, actually usable with a decent voice. Will also be compatible with CV)
-Shizu Chinese redux (Possibly VCV or all out CVVC??? Two banks are on my computer and idk which I'll end up using. (CVVC and Full List, they're listed as))
-Shizu English redux/etc (CVVC (Cz list), initial recording done. Fixing FRQs and otoing now)
-Shizu Korean (recorded, needs to be oto'd/rerecorded. This thing is two years old...)
-Pianoloid and Dog huge oto things so they're compatible with all hiragana and romaji

Misc VBs on SoD's computer that weren't listed above (for personal reference):
-Figure out what to do with any other bank I've recorded in the last however long that's halfway decent:
-VCV (nts:in oremo folder), New VCV (idk if this is 5.1 or the other one is), Tweets (if this sounds funny, it'll be an omake bank for Shizu), Shizu 6.0 (except it sounds bad so nvm), 5 25 12, 4 16 12, 12 15 12, Andromedeactan, August 6 13, BlankHighPitch (I am 60% sure this is GHOST), DERP, foal, orz, PITCH, Sept 24 (2011), Soft Female, result, Puzzle (A Puzzle CVVC bank recorded and not yet oto'd, so I don't know yet if this will be a redux core Shizu or something)

Art:
-Aroku's alternate form
-SOARing UTAU site banner+background.

USTs: (Also a To-make list at the bottom of the post)
[USTs removed from list when released via video. Crossed out means I just need art/video.]
-Scrap&Build (60% done? Need to pitchbend, and create harmonies.)
-P.a.r.a.l.y.z.e. (98% Need to just recheck everything.)
-Dragonheart (30% Need to check timing/pitch, pitchbend, and create harmonies)
-Duvet (50% Need to pitchbend, figure out the middle not-really-lyric parts and exactly how those go, and recheck the English. Using a MIDI and idk who made it since it was just sorta up on the animelyrics site.)

Choruses:
-See Songs SoD wants to make UTAU choruses of, but is too lazy to do.

Mixed and ready to upload except I need a video/art:
[most of these will have demos on my SoundCloud]
-World's End Ura Omote Dancehall Lovers (UtaRun featured UTAU chorus, first two months only)
-Ikasama Life Game mini-chorus of 4 (Need video+Art+mixing tweak)canceled
-Akatsuki Arrival chorus of 8 (Need video, art, mixing tweaks.) canceled
-P.a.r.a.l.y.z.e. (Attempting to make a PV. I'd say about 15% of the art is done.)

Other:
-Get back to writing The Day We Died.
-UTAU x Pokemon Hack stuff if the script editor wants to work on my computer again I can learn to code in XSE properly.

Translyrics:

Original Characters (art):

Useless facts about the hierarchy of power in my characters

Kotori pretty much is in charge.
Under her are Yun and SQ, who have equal power but report to her.
Yun's subordinates are the Long sisters; Wuqiong and Lanying (including Lin and Nil, if I ever revive them).
SQ is in charge of Wineberry, Miru, Ven, and Amaya.
The non-management subordinates directly under Kotori are Shizu, Aroku, and Taer+Taera (Forming Brigade 1) and November, Myra, Amethyst, Narei, and Temper (Forming Brigade 2). Meanwhile, Hua on her own is Brigade 3.

Kotori is responsible for giving Wineberry and Amaya magic. SQ gave it to Ven. Miru has no magic.
Yun speaks many many languages, so naturally she's in charge of the Long sisters who primarily speak Chinese. They handle any foreign relations SOAR might have.
SQ's team is essentially "backup", as Wineberry's magic isn't great (but is something, at least), Ven's not strong either, and Amaya is only called for confirmation about future events. Miru can take down people if needed.
Brigade 1 is full of shapeshifters (pretty much). Aroku has a fairy form, Taer and Taera switch forms with one another, and Shizu has her Paradoxical Form. Generally, Kotori leads this brigade because she has her Andromeda form, and is most related to them. This team is the fighting team, if needed, and the briefing/debriefing team if not.
Brigade 2 has no special powers to speak of, except Amethyst, who can communicate with anyone over any distance generally via radio and sometimes in rare cases through telepathy. Brigade 2's duty is to hold the fort while the others are out (because Kotori can't trust them on their own...) and handle domestic affairs. When off mission, Kotori hangs out most with this team, although avoids Amethyst.
Hua is in her own brigade because she can switch her personality on a dime, and she's also very skilled in survival and travel. She's sort of a scout, I suppose. When needed, she joins Brigade 1. Most often, she remains innocent (it's a traaaap).

Meanwhile, Yel is in charge of Unyo and Kou, separate from the others; allied with Kotori.
And SD is all alone, in charge of no one. He does whatever he wants, which is mostly nothing at all.
Meanwhile (again), Kururi shows up often as both a rival and ally when situations call for it.

10/18: Chinese Zodiacal characters (all twelve) report under Spamora, but operate separately. Ven is the ambassador to Spamora's team, and is the only one who partakes in SOAR's adventures.

Useless facts about Shizu's family.

Shizu's mother looks almost /exactly/ like Shizu. Except her hair is a little shorter and she doesn't use hair clips. (She has something else instead).
Heizen also has really long hair. (SoD has a design for him in mind...everything but his wardrobe's been sorta decided.)
Anjing and Heizen have straight hair, while Shizu's (and her mother's) is curly.
Heizen and Anjing's mother is Shizu's father's sister. (Name idea is Ange.) However, HAF's last name is something no one really wanted for a last name, so they call themselves the Sogones still.
Heizen looks a lot like his father. Their mother (surprisingly) is the only one with black hair in their little family.
Other than Shizu's dad, and H+A's mom, their other siblings are Shizu's mom's (SM) identical twin (who straightens her hair and wears contacts and dresses a little more risque) and her dad's+H+A's mom's youngest sister.
Shizu's Dad (SD) is the middle child and H+A's mom (HAM...what...) is the oldest.
Heizen is the same age as Shizu. He's also just an inch taller than her.
Anjing is twelve, but honestly looks like she's seven. She really hates it. She's short for her age.
Shizu is an only child. Heizen and Anjing have no other siblings. SM's twin sister has a ten year old son.
SMTS is a single parent.
Shizu's grandmother (on her mother's side) is called Tekko. Apparently in her youth, she looked exactly like Shizu (and also SM). However, her eyes are good and she doesn't need glasses/contacts. She's the only one in their family without sight issues.
Tekko and SM's maiden name is Ambrose.
SD+HAM's mother disappeared a while ago. Every so often, they get postcards and they have no idea how to contact her.
Both of Shizu's grandfathers are gone.
HAM's husband (HAF) is rather non-notable. He's an average man with no real defining features. Wears glasses, has white hair, etc.

Shizu can transform into her Paradoxical/bird form. It's common in her family, but she's the strongest out of them. Out of her family, those who can transform are: Tekko, SM, Heizen, Anjing, SMTS.
The rest are well aware that they can transform.

A limerick I wrote about Shizu just now.

A girl wanted exceedingly long hair
For you see, her head was quite bare
It grew out real quick
Ankle length went it
And at her white mane, people would stare

Another song I would write if I could write music

All alone, all alone
Forever more
Singing to myself alone
Until I'm sore

Waiting for, waiting for
A place of my own
Waiting for my life to be its own

All alone, all alone
What I thought true
Dancing for myself alone
Until I met you

Waiting for, waiting for
A heart to call mine
Waiting for our paths intertwined
