#art #halloran #ive chatted about him here a little already #i have his whole concept for the lore doc i just need the detailsss

finally starting to fill out full profiles for everyone else in a bigass group doc. and fuckkkkk i have actually written up so little on everyone, bar like. darda lmao (and his profile is all complete anyway)

We need more women characters who are Male Protagonists. You know. Slightly haggard. She's splashing cold water on her face and gripping the edge of the sink staring in the mirror for a minute. She's coping badly with her deadwife

i hear pontifax calling to me. i should dev him seriously. or at least fuckinnnn get a humany ref that isnt a scribble

other than intentionally embedding himself with glintstone hes actually a pretty chill dude

difficult. carian lore doesnt have a lot of room for dragons, and even notably has a lot of drakes in their employ instead. its not entirely unfeasible for a dragon to have gone “hey yeah i wanna check out sorcery and shit and abandon my own kind” (seathcore) but its like well. whats the basis anyway

obvi gonna do more research for further angles but maybe ill have to rework concept. embedded glintstone stays but maybe hes not lucaria aligned idk. could be more of a wizard tower guy, we’ll see

tbh what probably makes darda really good for roleplay is the fact that he really doesnt have to be the protag and hero. in fact ive straight up got at least one verse where he ends up a defeated antag

keziah doesnt even have to Be The Hero either. like his whole fantasy-verse schtick IS Being The Hero (whether he likes it or not), but at the end of the day his flaw is that he’s still the guy who pulls the lever in the trolley problem to save his loved ones over all

just like, sometimes the issue with collab roleplay based off of video games is that ur guy is canonically The Most Specialest Guy, which conflicts when everyone is being that guy (FFXIV kinda sucks about this). not only does fromsoft games have more wiggle room in general but so do my guys. they wiggle

#txt #like artur and halloran are probanly the ones who’d fight you most on it #even then artur is Nice and ends her route by self-sacrifice #halloran. tbh hes made to self-destruct one way or another lol

dark souls -> tomolife

now you can REALLY tell theyre queer

#text #gaming #posting here so sideblog gets an update again. YAHOO

[not drawing voice] I miss my character.

sketch of halloran (my lord of hollows guy) from floodedcity on th. my old man…!

#halloran #gift art #glad his hands were included in the bust. his bony hands are so important

another random darda text post. this time ive been thinking about how its very much possible darda couldve never even known melina was his sister, lmao

the only CONCRETE confirmation we have of that is found in the item description of messmer’s kindling. which even then is vague, and only connects to melina if you put together that she’s the kindling maiden. and well burning (in the kiln) isnt even something ONLY she has done

so unless she tells him outright, hey marika’s my mom, he might not ever fuckin know. on the other end its not like he keeps it some big secret he’s hoarah loux’s son, so if they just get talkative enough to exchange that info then she’d probably put THAT two and two together. 50/50 chance but still a possibility!

rly funny how darda’s default mode is being like |3 but i honestly have more art of him in Serious Mode or being tormented. and hes so tormentable. get yourself a guy suffering not only through the discovery of his family ties and guilt, but also the very physical pain and madness of the frenzied flame

gayleafpool

you can always give that character psychosis and a personality disorder

#darda. probably tyr. oh halli for sure #im definitely doing smth to halloran along these lines as well

reen gaming. the way i was so set on maining winged scythe and then i realized it does holy… and i think the ONLY remembrance boss weak to holy is putrescent knight. kms (grave scythe now) (but we’re trying to faith for some giant flame too)

#gaming #reen #i guess she gets a tag cuz she has a file and all. whatever #worldhopper oc tho

idk theres something kinda crayyyzeeeee in the sauce of halloran being persuaded to kill his gay situationship and then later also be “married” off to a woman he has no attraction for, all in the name of a path set out for him claiming to be the greater good. like. you see it

#text #tbd #i like how he started out as fully willing zealot experiment #now that whole path is his specific torture chamber for my delight

4 and 5 for Artur

4. What appears in your OC's darkest nightmares?

for literal nightmares, i don't think undead really sleep, nor can she probably remember what her nightmares were when alive... but figurative nightmares? losing herself to hollowing, of course. and i think after a while, the idea of failing shanalotte and anyone else who put faith in her is a real fear of hers. she's no longer having to fulfill this journey just for herself anymore, you know?

5. What is your OC's moral code?

from the very beginning, her concept was "someone who idealizes knighthood to a foolish extent". a don quixote of sorts. artur strives to protect the good and punish the wicked, but of course, sometimes you just need to kill whatever's in your way in DS2... i think the giant lord's fight was difficult for her to justify. killing aslatiel, too.

eventually she sombers up in her approach to things; not quite giving up her ideals, but understanding what it takes to uphold them. even if it's all built on a lie like aldia says, isn't it still a nice one, to believe in humanity? isn't that worth something?
