Des' Masterpost

Hey I'm Des <3 Old. Writer, artist, sometimes cosplayer.

I write a lot about githyanki, their lore, culture and language from their beginnings, to now. I focus a lot on their 5e and BG3 verses, whilst expanding it into my own verses and HCs.

I mostly centre my writing around Kith'rak Voss and Prince Orpheus, and their relationship with my Tav, Vanquish.

Fics

Writing Tag // My AO3

Tales of the Forgotten Prince, his Closest Blade and The Breaker of Chains series - fics following the relationships of Kith'rak Voss, Prince Orpheus and Vanquish from the beginnings of the githyanki, to the events of BG3 and beyond.

DOLL PARTS A 30k fic spanning 8 chapters set in my cyberpunk universe that follows a snapshot of the tumultuous winter, lives and relationships of Vanquish, Voss and Orpheus in a world the githyanki were forced to make home, wiith no way back to the Astral Sea. Complete. Contains lots of accompanying art by Una.

Vanquish's diary during BG3

Vanquish - deliberate and deep Vanquish's journal entries following significant and poignant moments of her journey in BG3 connected to Kith'rak Voss, Orpheus and Lae'zel.

My /reader fics

Orpheus/Reader - godless grace You're Prince Orpheus' saviour. And tonight he's going to thank you. Kith'rak Voss/Reader - class in session You're a new sarth under Kith'rak Voss. Fresh blood. And he's going to teach you some respect.

Interactive and Visual novels

I've written a long interactive novel, Prince, Blade, Breaker, where you can interview Kith'rak Voss, Prince Orpheus and their mla'ghir and bondmate, Vanquish, deep into the githyanki rebellion against Vlaakith CLVII.

It's around 30k words in total, with accompanying art by myself and my friend Una. And you can play and download it for free on itch.io here:

Prince, Blade, Breaker by Des

An interactive fan novel set several years after the events of Baldur's Gate 3, deep into the githyanki rebellion.

I've also written a short interactive novel where you can meet Prince Orpheus for the first time as three different githyanki.

Play here - who are you, to the Prince?

VISUAL NOVEL

This year, my friend Una and I started making a Visual Novel dating sim based in my AU - Doll Parts! We've been working hard and it's an absolute labour of love between us. It's an ambitious project, and we're taking our time with it. It's focused around our fav unromanceable chars, and also OCs, with several distinct chars you can play as.

Any updates and chatter about my WIP interactive fiction here will be posted in the tags #visual novel and #DD VN

Every time an author reassures readers that the smut is skippable I sigh a disappointed sigh. This is not a reassurance. Why would anybody who likes smut want to read smut that was only included as an afterthought and has no impact on the narrative? Insulting. Just don't write it at all if you're not going to make it matter.

[lierdumoa]

#on the one hand I understand that some people don’t want to read smut

Like 85% of tumblr users hate and loathe embarrassment based comedy with every fiber of their beings, but never in my life have I ever seen an author reassure their audience that the embarrassing scenes are skippable.

Lots of people dislike tragedy but never in my life have I ever seen an author reassure the audience that the death and grieving scenes are skippable.

Stop trying to pass off self-censorship as “accommodation.” Stop trying to pass off pandering as “inclusivity.”

Your audience can smell your fear, and it smells rancid.

Got myself the famed acrylic markers and I agree now, they are pretty neat! Still getting used to them. I got myself a pack of 9 shades of brown. As you can tell from the abundance of browns in these

WIPs of a pose pack I decided to make for BG3 last week. I obvs knew how to use blender and pose, but knew shit all about how to get it into game so did a crash course on that. The tails part was SO annoying lol. But we got there.

Testers have it rn and hopefully releasing it some time next week!

Modified Tattoos for Prince Orpheus

Edits to the Tir'su of Prince Orpheus tattoos with my HCs to make them more cohesive with his character, backstory, githyanki culture and my

My Orpheus HC tattoo mod is out💜🐸!

I hope you enjoy modding our githyanki Prince's tattoos to have some more love and meaning.

I edited the front, back and a little bonus one too. Here is a comparison of the front.

All the Tir'su and my HCs are explained fully and in-depth in the mod. A vanilla tattoo replacer for the game and also loose files are included if you wish to use a customiser tattoo mod for your Tav/editable companions/NPCs etc or for use in 3D models in Blender and DAZ. Enjoy!

If you use it in any VP or renders I'd absolutely love to see. And as always, if you use it, please credit me, thank you!
