Acrylic aorta

Acrylic aorta is an upcoming myth group that has incredibly unique and interesting games, and also likes to limit their content and behavior to themselves. Their stories mostly seem to focus on the individual for now, but it all relates back to art in some way.
==Biography ==
Rather than having a dedicated story to the group or an overall shared experience, acrylic aorta acts as a collection of what can be assumed to be artistic myths either dedicated to the group or having no purpose at all. However, the members do share themes and concepts for both their characters and games. They often interact with others together and typically only consider each other friends, which does relate back to the poem for the group that uses “we” and “our” while describing themselves. This poem once again proves the idea that these are artistic projects creatively working together. Furthermore, the poem that represents acrylic aorta doesn’t have specific, solved meaning or theme.
==History==
Acrylic aorta was created on August 8th, 2021, by winslowhomey. The group sits at 13 members and the dates of when most of them joined is unknown due to the group being relatively unknown until November. During 2022, multiple members were kicked for seemingly inactivity or other reasons and sometimes replaced. Leopoldstaf was replaced by szklanemorze in July, GISHIKi was replaced by Graisine in August, and f7684b38 was kicked in August. 
In July 2022, Robloxian Myth Hunters hosted a large investigation on acrylic aorta which gave the myth group a huge boost in motivation and activity. This and RMH Myth Development are the two myth-hunting groups they stay in, so lots came from them during hunts and in the Discord servers. Later on, ownership was transferred to abenventilen on either August 1st or 2nd. The majority of the members slowly continue to develop their own projects whilst progressively losing activity. This eventually led to DoloreSemper leaving the group on 10/17/2022.
== Myth Affiliated Members==
Member 	Description
abenventilen 	Abenventilen is the current owner of acrylic aorta, ranked as “blank canvas”. Who exactly they are isn’t certain but their game depicts somebody mining through this cave system in order to find some material. This may either be them or abenventilen is a representation of the game in some form. They are consistently quiet when around others in other myth community games but have proved they understand Danish.
winslowhomey 	The previous owner of the group ranked as “blank canvas”, however is now ranked as one of the second highest ranked members - despite this, very little is known about the creator and their story. They are also the holder of the game “sleigh ride” and write poems with adventurous themes.
Rokhlina 	
Mugnise 	
hgandsun 	hgandsun was an early member of the group who was removed quite quickly. hgandsun only has serveroutsiders and danskark friended and has a custom t-shirt named, “Vulcan”. This orange sun is covered by clouds and goes along with the rest of the orange avatar. They were readded to the group at some point in 2024. Besides this, information regarding this character is unknown.
danskark 	danskark is a lesser known member of the group due to so little content on his profile. His avatar differs in creativity from other members, he has a private game, and has no interactions with people on record. What danskark’s story is or what purpose he may serve in the future is unknown, but the account is active with going online.
Grelsant 	Grelsant is the second most popular, if not the most popular, acrylic aorta member. This is because of a combination of having a game, an active Discord account, and more. Grelsant apparently is a pirate who discovered a flower and decided to consume it. This flower is known as a lotus and he quickly became addicted to it. However, it was poisonous and he ended up in the hospital.
Wershalt 	Wershalt is an account only related to Grelsant and is involved in the story as his wife. According to Grelsant, there was an incident where Wershalt fell off a cliff to her death. This account has not been active in months and isn’t even in the acrylic aorta group.
Caerdroian 	
Hunlamn 	Hunlamn is another semi-active member who occasionally interacts with players. They are ranked as “watercolor frame”, and have only DoloreSemper friended. They have spoken about how they live in a bamboo forest and nothing more. There is barely ever a developing status spotted on their profile, unfortunately.
szklanemorze 	This account was also quite active with logging in and developing their game, but it is yet to be released. Nothing regarding their story is known either, but they do typically have professional behavior rather than something silly like the other members. The character definitely involves an ice or snow world.
ovorcast 	ovorcast is another member left almost completely mysterious. There are no known instances where they’ve interacted with others in-game, and their place has almost no content to it. Ovorcast is ranked as “spinal artwork” in acrylic aorta. Their game alludes that it takes place at Kurile lake, a real-life location that has a super active volcano present. Within the story, the nuclear power plant that harvests energy from the volcano had a problem causing there to be a nuclear winter and a volcanic eruption.
DoloreSemper 	DoloreSemper was the third highest ranked member as “creative”. They once had a Discord account that is now deleted, where they shared a few teasers for their game, “Departed”. They did stay active during most of 2022 by logging in developing their game, but no special qualities to them are yet to be revealed from what has been shared. Unfortunately, they are no longer a member as they have left the group for unknown reasons.  They apparently behaved normally when in-game.
icosahedron29 	icosahedron29 is another obscure member who has no known behavior or interactions at all with anyone. They are ranked as “downloadable content” in acrylic aorta and are decently active with logging in and developing. This myth seems to be based off of a game that has been remastered through multiple accounts, with the current being the 29th. It is currently private for unknown reasons.
briefcayse 	briefcayse is one of the acrylic aorta members who is known for having one of the first three games public in the group. Despite their game being very short, it does hint at some interesting events. They seem to reference a real-life event known as the Tokyo Subway Sarin Attack. Who specifically briefcayse is in this story is unknown, but they may just be some sort of representation of a victim of the incident.
Graisine 	Although Graisine has a Discord account and almost immediately showed progress to their game after they joined acrylic aorta, they have barely spoken nor have they released their game. The teaser was posted in the Robloxian Myth Hunters Discord server on 8/11/2022 with the caption, “Cloud Sailors”.
Anturho 	Anturho is a member mainly known for their interactions with players, rather than their story or game, as neither have been revealed yet. Apparently, he is a 9 year-old who has severe heart problems. They also have a Discord account but haven’t shared anything about ‘Secluded’ yet.
Coisichleatsa 	Coisichleatsa has a rather empty avatar without any accessories or t-shirts, and the only thing interesting about their profile is what can be translated from their private game. It seems to be some sort of poem or song that describes Coisichleatsa on a rough boat ride across the sea with someone he loves. Like many others, he doesn’t do much developing and only logs on every so often.
Coveglarh 	Coveglarh was one of the most active members of the group despite their game not being public. They retained high activity for a large portion of 2022 through communication on their Discord account in the Robloxian Myth Hunters server, and by playing miscellaneous Roblox games. No story is known about them yet but their behavior is a mix of obscure and normal.
f7684b38 	This account has almost nothing to it other than its “About Me” section, which reads: “I just wanted to cross the street.” They have nobody friended, zero games involved with their account, and they have a blank avatar. Due to all of this, nothing is known about this account. It was most likely a failed member who went completely inactive for months at times which led it to being removed from acrylic aorta.
GlSHlKl 	GlSHlKl was another acrylic aorta member who rarely participated in the group's activities, and had only DoloreSemper added. They were ranked as “downloadable content” and only come online once in a while. Their highest point of activity was in February 2022, when they began showcasing some parts of a game in development, which was eventually canceled due to problems on Roblox’s side. Once this happened, he was removed from the group and archived. GlSHlKl seemed to be some sort of traveler who got lost in a cavern in the mountains during a heavy storm.
serveroutsiders	serveroutsiders has no record of being a member of the acrylic aorta group, but does have an obscure style to them along with having lots of associated accounts friended. Instead of them being a defunct account, they appear to be more of a developer to the group. They have been active with developing like the other current members, yet it only pertains to other acrylic aorta games. They have no game in development for themself nor anything hinting to what their story may be.
auounaj 	This appears to be another failed member by acrylic aorta. He wears a rather blank avatar and is friends with a few other acrylic aorta characters. Any sort of information about him hasn’t been recorded, including the date of his removal. Although, this most likely happened sometime in early 2022.
leopoldstaf 	leopoldstaf was an account removed in July of 2022, and replaced by szklanemorze. Except this account has absolutely nothing to it anymore, if there was anything to begin with. There are no friends or games to this account, nor do they have any badges or are a part of any other group.
lostorange 	lostorange follows a similar pattern to the other defunct members, resembling auounaj almost exactly. Their story seems like it would have followed a relationship between lostorange and someone else.
== Games==
===sleigh ride===
A game set in several different areas of a vast sea. Sleigh ride utilizes a stud-like building style and gameplay in the form of clickable triggers and teleports. Various words make common appearances in the game, likely pertaining to its vague story.
===lotus===
Lotus is a game where the player goes through a series of islands consisting of simple triggers and exploration. The main idea presented is a developing addiction of Grelsant’s that leads to him being hospitalized. There have been many instances where Grelsant interacts with others here, typically when there are large groups of hunters. 
===sarah===
A game that takes place in a subway station, the building loosely resembling that of PS1 graphics. Notable items include 4 trash cans in the area, each labeled with a short sentence. If the player waits around long enough after completing their objective, a train will pass by and disable the player’s ability to move.
The player spawns into the dimly lit subway holding what appears to be a bag. At each corner of the subway is a trash can, each with its own description when the player hovers their mouse over it: the trash can to the left of the spawn says “The other one is better”, the one to the right of the spawn says “Too far away”, the one to the far right says “Nobody will come over here”, and the far left one (somewhat near the center) says “Place the bag”. Once the player puts the bag into this trash can,  a rustling sound can be heard and the doorway at the back of the subway can be accessed to teleport to the game “you did well” in which the player sits on a couch and watches several images appear on the tv, likely pertaining to an explosion in the subway. Alternatively, instead of going through this teleport, the player can wait around for the train (labeled “tram”) to pass by and become immobilized. 
===ovorcast’s Place===
Ovorcast’s Place is entirely based on decoding puzzles and ciphers through the surroundings within the game. Rather than the player being able to explore a map with their character, they are frozen in a single picture until the puzzle is solved from that perspective. It used to be updated consistently to add more to the game but the updates have diminished to nothing. Making progress in this game is far from easy, requiring guess work and knowledge of a few numerical ciphers.
In the first instance of joining the game, the player’s vision is fixated to a rocky archway abandoned in the middle of a strange, greenish landscape with a reflective floor. For the first angle of the game, they must focus on the description of the game which is, "choke printout tools". Coincidentally, choking a print is genuine terminology relating to art but that's not important. The description is an anagram of 18 characters. Using patchwork guessing, players may eventually stumble upon the right answer, "slip out onto the rock". Upon saying the phrase, a series of hint prompts will appear at the top of the screen. In order, these say "quickly days have gone by", "walking up government buildings was a long, arduous task" and "but my strides amounted to nothing". During the third prompt, the camera angle will change so that we are viewing the behind of the archway. This promptly reveals some new scenery. As can be seen in the image, the player is now looking at the behind of the arch. In addition, they can also see something beyond the arch. There are a series of blocky structures in the distance and these are the key to the next phrase that must be said.
In order from left to right, the numbers are: 4851794882542. Unfortunately, the answer is not that simple. The next step pertains to turning the string of numbers into its base37 equivalent. Simply put the numbers through the base37 decoder and have the alphabet set to "[space]_AZ09” at the start and they will have their answer of "and climb". Saying "and climb" will result in a triad of hint prompts appearing once more. They state, "consumed by the power", "the power in which they did not create" and "knowing nothing of what they were doing". After this, they will be teleported to the second place of the game, "kurille's long winter pt. I".This game seems to take place in a surreal, dystopian city where factories are visible along with seemingly derelict buildings. The soundtrack has also changed to wind blowing with a choir in the air. To progress here, look around for a very small, nearly transparent square at the bottom right of the screen. The square is clickable and, once it is clicked, the player is presented with more of the same structures as were found with the archway's second camera angle. This time, the structures are positioned on what may be one of the factory walls.
Using a brightened version of the structures, similar symbols are present here like before. However, there is an issue with the section of structures in the middle and the spacing in the code. This spacing ensures that it cannot be base37 anymore, so another base must be found. In the picture, the number sequences, 7838955 13131 and 12452 7838955 13131 12452, can be made out. However, putting this through a base26 decoder gives, "REACH TLB SKY", which is legible enough to guess the answer. However, the actual number sequence in the middle is 13030 because the third and fifth structure in the sequence are barely visibly thinner than the first. This makes them 0 and is incredibly difficult to spot. The final number is 7838955 13030 12452 and decodes into "reach the sky".
Saying "reach the sky" in the chat will make the usual three hint sequence appear. This time, they say, "their facilities, headquarters, whatever you'd like to call it", "became analogous to factories" and "overseeing embryonic annihilation". During the third hint, the camera angle will change once more, allowing the player to see what was behind them once again. There should be a city skyline in the distance, separated by a wall to the area they are currently in. They must now go through the same process as last time. There is a square hidden around their field of view. This time, it's slightly red but much larger than the previous one and can be found on the left side of the screen on one of the large exhausting pipes. Clicking this makes more of the structures appear on the separator wall. Using the same technology from before, the player should highlight these structures to see their edges more clearly in order to know what their equivalent numbers are. The whole sequence of structures is translated into "30704 481586 1068 1278893". Unfortunately, the same issue as before will come up where ovorcast has changed the base used yet again as neither base26 nor base37 are able to coherently translate the numbers into any legible text. Instead of those two, put the sequence of numbers into a base36 decoder and set the setting to incorporate the numbers at the beginning of the used alphabet. Doing this, "30704 481586 1068 1278893" will become "now able to rest". Upon saying this phrase, the usual three sequence hints will appear once more. "I was called in to advise", "but they only boasted of their new tools" and "tools that should never have been created". After the third hint dissipates, the player’s camera is transported to the inside of one of the exhaust pipes and the audio's pitch slowly increases to a lighter sound. After a while, they are eventually teleported to the next and current, final place, "kurille's long winter pt. II".
This is a similar experience to the last game. They must first find a square which is located on the bottom of the screen screen, right of the center. Then they must find a second square which has situated itself onto the top left of the archway. The third square is located on the very bottom of the screen, left of the center. Once the player has clicked all of these squares, the structures that they’ve long awaited for finally appear on the right of the screen, off of the rock completely. These are different as they are situated backwards rather than forwards, shown by the structures having a flipped direction compared to the rest. Unfortunately, it is currently unknown how to translate these structures. However, the number would be "11422251812 42129 9872" or "2789 92124 21815222411" with some of the 1's potentially becoming 0's.
===PreRelease: Icosahedron Racing===
Icosahedron Racing is a game made by icosahedron29 where the player plays as an icosahedron and has to complete an obstacle course through rolling across platforms and reaching a finish line. This game has apparently been passed down through generations of icosahedron accounts. Currently, the game is private for updates but will most likely be public again at some point. 
Once the player spawns, they can simply move their icosahedron using WASD or the arrow keys. There are a variety of ramps and different pieces of the obstacle for the player to complete, however, once they get to the third level, they should immediately see a broken wall. If the player goes through this wall, they will be met with a jumpscare and the message, “You have something I want”, in Danish and also obtain the “afkom (en)” badge. When returning to the game, the player may notice that the broken wall no longer exists. After going through all of these different levels, they should reach the end and receive the “vinder” badge. Joining the game after obtaining this badge causes balloons to appear on the first level of the course.
After beating the game once, the player has the option to click a green button on the first stage and change the course; each stage from this point forward will have variations from its original. This is most apparent in stage 5 with caution tape and several police cars are present as if a crime scene was taking place. Instead of a finish line, there is a hole at the end of this stage that teleports the player to a subgame taking place in a teal-colored dining room with the camera perspective locked. The player also obtains the “afkom (to)” badge upon entrance. A man can be seen walking around the table and says the following, translated from Danish: “... so you have heard of all that has been going on? come on, smile. it's not every day you see your father for dinner, is it? that music is annoying. hold on. ..? do you hear that?--” The screen then flashes white and the scenario ends.
===Hjerte===
Hjerte is a game inside an almost abandoned mineshaft, with the player being the only thing moving around the caves. Despite this, they’re seemingly given orders with each step they complete. There are PS1-style graphics to it that can make it somewhat laggy, but it also carries the strange theme with it regardless. 
After taking an elevator, with a very poor condition to it, down to the mine, the player will be presented by a corridor filled with rubble and broken pipes. Eventually, they should find their pickaxe which they can use to clear the boulders ahead of them. The destruction of this obstacle will only reveal another, an open pit with only a few columns of rocks to travel on in order to reach the separate side. Following this path will lead the player to a drill that they are instructed to fix. First, they must find four screws that are all under mineable rocks. One is around the elevator, another in the corner of that same hall, and the next two are in the second section of the mine. The third should be near the right wall after the parkour, and the final is at the end of the tunnel near the drill. 
A gas canister can be equipped once all four screws are put into the drill. All the player has to do is simply go around the mine collecting fuel from open pipes. Sounds are made to indicate when fuel is collected and used. Roughly nine uses are needed to open the door to the drill, where they can then press a single red button and run the drill. Their screen should fade to black with the message, “movement one: end”.
==Ranks==
Ranks 	Description
Spinal artwork 	The lowest rank in acrylic aorta. This rank is reserved for ovorcast, Coisichleatsa, and Coveglarh. It is possible that the name is a symbol for the foundation of art, hence it being the lowest.
Watercolor frame 	Watercolor frame doesn’t present a clear repetitive element to its members, but each member’s user descriptions are written like a short poem with three lines. Adventure and illness are two recurring themes in these writings . The rank “Watercolor frame”, might be for those who maintain a minimal activity with the group among the other ranks. However, multiple others like ovorcast and Grelsant can also be described in a similar format.
Downloadable colors	The meaning behind this rank is questionable, but a PS1 trend is definitely included in whoever is ranked here. Briefcayse has the style, Graisine as well, and GISHIKI did seem to have it too when looking at the teasers for the games he was going to have.
svarne 	Svarene means “the answers” in Danish and coincidentally, both Grelsant and icosahedron29 are ranked here while also being accounts that frequently use Danish. Although danskark has basically no information released about him, he is also probably Danish because of the other two members. This probably means this rank is for accounts that are Danish for some odd reason.
creative 	This rank is most likely for members based on real-life artists hence winslowhomey being in the rank. DoloreSemper is the only other person that has resided within the rank although no artist resembling him was ever found. If this is the case, it would make sense for the artists to be the second highest ranking.
Blank canvas 	Blank canvas is the owner rank for the group which is held by abenventilen. If there is some sort of meaning to the name, it is unknown currently.
==Theories==
*Abenventilen and his game, “hjerte”, is about the entirety of acrylic aorta or will at least reference the creation of it. 
**Due to his inventory being open, a model of what seems to be an icosahedron can be seen. This model is used as a rock but it may be a reference to icosahedron29.
**Abenventilen’s avatar not only has a mix of colors that can relate back to other members, but the heart of their shirt might mean they are the heart of the group. 
***The green arm can refer to Coveglarh, the blue leg: briefcayse, the reddish orange leg: Graisine, head: winslowhomey, and the final arm: leopoldstaf or auounaj. However, the last two members listed aren’t in the group any longer.
***The colors on abenventilen’s avatar may instead just be some of the important colors in painting, rather than it representing people.
***Oddly, “aorta” is also the name for the part of the heart that “carries blood from the heart to the circulatory system”. Perhaps this means that they keep the group flowing.
** He shares characteristics that seemingly represent the other ranks within the group. 
***“Hjerte”, abenventilen’s game, contains a similar PS1-style as the “downloadable colors” rank. He also uses the Danish language a lot just like “svarene”.
***There is yet to be anything found on a real-life artist that he may represent.
**There is not any game specifically about the group or anything to explain what the story behind it is currently, so perhaps the sole leader of it could do that.
*“Hjerte” takes place inside of abenventilen’s heart which is used to fuel the acrylic aorta group. 
**The mine and its general scruffy setting share a similar mood to the heart depicted on abenventilen’s avatar. Although the color aspect isn’t exact, it can be assumed that the conditions are worse on the outside because it has been drained of its resources there first.
**The player is then led through this heart where a broken pipe can be spotted within a large, open-cavern. Unlike all the others, a rainbow-colored material falls from the opening. 
***Whatever material is left inside the pipes, is used as fuel for the drill. The hidden pipe with the visible material and the others are exactly alike, so they are most likely the same thing.
***The aforementioned drill reaches the main objective which most likely is the “acrylic aorta”. This place may contain a large source of the strange material, as the rest of the mine was used to find this. If this is true, it may be harvested and used to keep the acrylic aorta group running.
*** Alternatively, the “acrylic aorta” is actually an aorta in the heart where the people of the group were discovered or created. Perhaps the material mixed in this location and formed everyone excluding abenventilen.
** Obviously, the game is named “heart” and abenventilen wants someone, probably the player, to find either the “archiliac aorta” or the “acrylic aorta” inside of it.
*All of the members of acrylic aorta are creations of DoloreSemper and winslowhomey; besides abenventilen. 
** Winslowhomey is believed to be based upon the artist, Winslow Homer, and DoloreSemper sat in the same rank as winslow despite there being no known artist that they represent. 
***Assuming “creative” is for members that represent real-life artists, it would make sense for them to create art. All of the other members don’t show a connection to a specific artist, and most of the other rank names can be considered parts of art in terms of digital painting.
***The rank name, “creative”, may be referring to the two’s incredible creativity if they are the creators of the other acrylic aorta members.
**DoloreSemper has most of the acrylic aorta members added, making them the member with the most friends. It is feasible that they have them as friends because they are art pieces they worked on.
==Trivia==
*Szklanemorze has already teased a few pieces of music that will be included in their game, which can be found in an Acrylic aorta discussion server.
*Icosahedron29 has their own YouTube channel where they post some occasional pieces of music and other content relating to icosahedron29.
*There has been an account created with the sole purpose of following and archiving everything related to acrylic aorta. The username of this Roblox account is “Graphicalic”.
