JonKazama-Hellion 82cbf4c281 chore(release): v1.5.1 manifest bump
- csproj <Version> 1.5.0 to 1.5.1; <None Include="images\**"> now
  excludes the source-only ASCII study folder so the deploy stays
  clean
- yaml + repo.json changelog block prepended with the v1.5.1 entry,
  v1.4.8 trimmed out per the slim rule (three to four versions in
  the manifest cache, older history lives on the Gitea release page)
- repo.json AssemblyVersion + TestingAssemblyVersion bumped to
  1.5.1.0, three DownloadLink* URLs point at v1.5.1
- docs/CHANGELOG and docs/ROADMAP gain the v1.5.1 entry; ROADMAP
  Next-Cycle slot moves to v1.5.2 First-Run-Wizard rework
- README status sections updated, the previous v1.5.0 paragraph
  kept under a "Project status (pre-v1.5.1, kept for context)"
  heading
- Forge-post .github/forge-posts/v1.5.1.md added, DE body honest
  about the HITCH-win miss
- yamllint config ignores the plugin manifest yaml because it
  follows DalamudPackager's 4-space indent convention rather than
  yamllint's default 2

Changelogs are honest about the cross-plugin HITCH target from
v1.5.0 not landing this cycle.

Hellion Chat — ASCII branding assets

ASCII art collected during the Hellion Chat branding pass. The Hellion Chat mascot is a fox, and two variants ship inside the plugin DLL as embedded resources and render at runtime. Everything in this folder is the wider study collection that did not get picked for the live slots, kept around as reference material and for anyone who wants to remix or build on top of them.

Live assets (rendered at runtime)

These two files live as embedded resources under HellionChat/Resources/Branding/ and are loaded by the plugin at startup. They are intentionally outside this folder so the build pipeline can treat them as binary blobs rather than loose assets.

File Slot
HellionChat/Resources/Branding/fox-banner.txt Full fox silhouette with "Hellion Forge" set inside the body. Rendered as a folded TreeNode in the First-Run Wizard and in the Settings → Information tab.
HellionChat/Resources/Branding/fox-mini.txt Compact fox-head + curly-tail. Prepended to the DI-logger bootstrap banner so an /xllog reader sees the signature on every plugin load.

Study assets (this folder, not embedded)

Variants drawn during the design pass that did not get picked for the live slots. Kept around so the next branding iteration can remix them or pull one in if a new render slot needs an alternative shape.

File Description
fox-profile-hf.txt Fox profile silhouette in $/X stipple with a small "HF" mark inside the chest.
fox-sitting-stipple.txt Sitting fox in & stipple with a full tail sweep to the right.
fox-paw-stipple.txt Detailed paw print in @ stipple — five upper pads plus the main pad.
fox-paw-outline.txt Compact outline paw with ^ claw marks (non-retractable claws are a fox-vs-cat tell).
wolf-head-blazejkozlowski.txt Third-party work, kept as a style reference from the design pass — see attribution below.

License / attribution

Julia Moon (all fox-*.txt files)

"Julia Moon" is the pseudonym used by the Hellion Chat maintainer for creative work. All fox-*.txt files in this folder and under HellionChat/Resources/Branding/ were drawn for Hellion Chat under that name.

  • Free to use, no attribution required, no copyright notice needed.
  • Remix, adapt, or build on top of them as you wish.
  • They travel under Hellion Chat's main EUPL-1.2 license but the author waives the attribution clause for these specific assets.

Blazej Kozlowski (wolf-head-blazejkozlowski.txt)

The wolf head is by Blazej Kozlowski, originally published on the ASCII Art Archive:

https://www.asciiart.eu/art/2717ef726b5e8ea6

It is kept here as a style reference for the fox silhouette work. The bug string at the bottom of the art is the artist's traditional signature, not a status marker. If you want to use it yourself, follow the rules on asciiart.eu rather than the Julia Moon waiver above.
