@rakastyi
What is your OC’s role in the found family group dynamic?
Ra’kastyi’s role is definitely either “emotional support dumbass” or “The father I didn’t want but now can’t live without.” Usually both. He’ll be high as hell from sampling the moon sugar all afternoon, but the Elsweyr Curry crostatas will be LIT and you’ll be struggling to hold back tears as you go “omg he drew little faces on the edges of the crust”
Describe your favorite OC but like, really awfully.
Using my mains…
Local elf literally fucks to survive.
Bastard refuses to die and is too angry to be killed, gains immortality through rage
Just a really pure, really small, redhead Legolas
Tears and pain and suffering :)
Legendary hero literally giant idiot.
Lesbian poet exudes mom vibes and anxiety.
Former cop becomes anarchist super criminal.
College student becomes more interesting after medical experiment.
Ask A Himbo
Feeling like having some fun. So plaesey, send in your asks for Ra'kastyi, and he will answer as only the stupidest son of Akatosh can.
#tesblr #tes #skyrim
I can’t believe it’s another Khajiit Proverb
A clean house is the sign of a wasted life.
Reblog if you think Pansexuals are valid
I just…want to see something
Of course
I sure hope I’m valid-
beep boop pans pans pans!
my commission from @rakastyi of his lovely vestige, ja’missra! she is tired of the cis bullshit and will stab someone
Ja’missra, aka Missy, my Vestige character for ESO! She is trans, she is fierce, and she will end that cis nonsense with her left-handed swordness!
Done by the fabuloustastic @taazo-kaan, the true 9th divine!
Seriously Missy is big and strong and doesn’t afraid of anything.
Mephala’s Magnificent Mittens, Could it be Another Khajiit Proverb?!
The Altmer may look down on khajiit as lesser, but remember we are literally COVERED in fur and still we somehow look fine but spend less time on grooming than they spend on their hair every morning.
[Your url but you change it with the following criterion:
Every “i” is replaced by “iii” Every “e” is replaced by “c” Every “o” & “a” is replaced by “x” Add “isms” to the end of it
Rx’kxstyiii looks like somethin’ that dumbass Vivec would write.
Behold the himbo! Another lovely piece of Ra’kastyi art. I think this really shows how sweet and sunny his personality is!
Art by the wonderfully gracious and clever @taazo-kaan
You haven't the meme but pls tell us why himbo-kitty Ra'kastyi is 'problematic' 👀
OHOHOHO! A new hand touches the himbo! ...sorry. But that leads into my answers: #DadJokes for Every Occassion. Even inappropriate ones. #Is physically demonstrative and also quite large, makes people uncomfortable by getting very close and touching to reinforce words. #Huge metabolism means consequence-free sweet tooth, so he doesn’t see what’s wrong with his daughter/daughters having sweets whenever they like. #Irritated enough with both factions of the Skyrim Civil War to allow it to continue rather than help either side bring it to a conclusion. #Genetically incapable of backing down from a violent challenge. #Saw Serana was upset, chomped on a whole ass crostata to bring a smile to her face...whilst stalking a vampire.
Lost asks
It's frustrating to send in an ask to someone whose work you really enjoy and not get a reply, especially when they seem naturally kind to askers by default.
And it's ok to feel that frustration, cause you're allowed to have emotional reactions.
Just remember though that your emotions don't mandate they respond. They have their place too. Be as kind as you'd like others to be with you.
By Mother Cat’s Whiskers, Is it a Khajiit Proverb?!
Never try walking a league in another person’s shoes.
They most likely won’t fit and your paws will hurt something fierce. Then you will hate them, for making your paws hurt. Then you’ve lost the chance to make a friend.
Just nick their shoes and leave them moon sugar instead. Everything will be fine, then!
is popcorn a thing in tamriel, and if so, who ~discovered~ it?
Popcorn is a popular treat in Northern Elsweyr, and as you've probably guessed by the geographic locale, it was created by accident in the sweltering desert heat.
Khajiiti popcorn is of course flavoured with moon sugar, and the most popular variant, sold by street vendors around Elsweyr, are a fantastic sweet-and-salty caramel coated treat. It is known locally as past-corn, for reasons you shall see below...
Legend has it that a young Khajiit corn farmer was working in the fields on a particularly hot day, and had hidden under a tree to take shelter from the sun at noon. As he dozed off, he was awoken by an alarming series of popping noises coming from his field, and he shot into a large basket to hide from fright. It turned out, however, that the source of the popping noise was actually from a pile of corn kernels left to dry nearby to make flour later.
Our brave farmer was later extricated from his basket by some friends, who were trying to figure out what the crunchy, white things which had replaced their corn kernels were. They decided that the mysterious past-corn would make good protection for packing their shipments, but a few intrepid Khajiit decided to later take a nibble out of curiosity. It turned out that the past-corn didn't taste half bad, and once the farmers realised it was safe to eat, they gathered the lot into a large bowl and sprinkled it with moon sugar. Behold, past-corn was born!
While I'm inclined to treat Khajiiti tales with a bit of skepticism, this one does indeed seem plausible as to this day, past-corn is traditionally made on particularly hot days by leaving dried kernels out in the sun. They're also made over the fire now, but it is an entertaining sight to watch piles of corn pop in the sun (definitely a must-see for intrepid tourists to Elsweyr who aren't afraid of sunburn). ~Talviel
This has given me a headcanon. Ra'kastyi is not great at magic, but he's learned to control fire fairly well because his Khajiit daughter Ma'isha loves past corn and Skyrim is not warm enough to make it naturally.
Hmmm, what does your OC think of the Companions? Or the Thieves Guild?
Oooh! my first ask!Well.On the Companions, Ra’kastyi thinks rather highly of them, since he joined the organization.In my playthrough, I go from the headcanon that Inigo shooting Ra’kastyi did happen, and he awakes on the glacier near Alftand with a confused memory. He eventually wanders down to Windhelm and meets up with the trading caravans, which he joins to get by before settling down near whiterun as a game hunter and bounty hunter.
This leads to him meeting up with the Companions when Aela and company are beating down a giant. He sends a few arrows in to help, because GIANT. Aela extends her invitation and off he goes.
As to SPECIFIC companions, Ra’kastyi is most fond of Kodlak Whitemane, who takes a rather fatherly, measured role to things. He points out the danger of a cycle of vengeance, talks about undoing ancient plots and tricks, and above all the power of desire and choice. Consent, in other words.
Vilkas shows Ra’kastyi that one can have regrets, and can make a form of restitution for them. Aela showed that one can believe in something wholeheartedly, while respecting that others might not, and still work with them as a shield-sibling. Athis and Drunkbro showed that sometimes you just need something you’re good and and some money and you’re good.
Ria showed you can look up to heroes. Njada showed that you don’t have to kiss ass, you just have to be good. Skjor showed the value of honoring the next generation to come with trust and power when it was their time.
So yeah, he’s deeply, wildly invested in what is one of the most complex and anarchist organizations in Skyrim.
Which makes me feel bad about your second part of the ask, because I haven’t done the Thieves’ guild quests with him, as he’s just not a thiefly type, particularly in the mold that Skyrim casts the Thieves’ guild as racketeers and leg-breakers.
Now, there are some...nasty things about the Companions. Inexcusable things. Aela cops to torturing someone once. They beat up random people for money. They worship a genocidal madman. They’re soft-racist.
These things are Bad with a Bee, and Ra’kastyi understands that. He also knows he can’t change people overnight. For his part, as I said in another post WAAAY back when, he leaves Ysgrammor’s Axe with the statue.
When Vilkas objects, Ra’kastyi says, “Didn’t you tell this one the Companions have been many things? Perhaps we can be something new again. Carry it if you want, but Ra’kastyi prefers the future to the past. Come, and be a hero with your Harbinger, instead of wondering about an old ugly one with a bad hat.”

Getting Paid to Punch Racists
So today in Companion Adventures:
I had to restart skyrim cause of bugs and conflicts, so I decided to re-do Ra’kastyi’s story given that I have a better idea of what I want his story to be like.
So I’m hanging out with my Khajiit follower Bikhai, and Vilkas gives us the nod to go rescue Rolff Stone Fist from Halted Stream Camp. Rolling our eyes at saving his racist ass, we head there. Well, he’s somehow already out of his bonds, and fighting the bandits.
“Wouldn’t it be a shame if he somehow died,” Ra’kastyi mutters, and wades in. Well, Rolff takes a wild swing and hits Ra’kastyi, somehow! “HONESTLY YOU STUPID NORD, CAN YOU STOP FOR ONE MIN-”
And then BIKHAI charges Rolff and beats him down to one knee. I’m staring in shock, and then Rolff gets up, says “Thank the Divines, let’s move!”
So we get him back to Windhelm, confused as hell. Then I go to speak to him to “Take my leave” and he starts the “This is our city!” sass, so we lead into a fistfight.
From there, Ra’kastyi beats him down, because he is a seven foot tall Khajiit in steel armour, and Rolff is an alcoholic nord in the elder scrolls equivalent of a wife-beater.
So not only do I get to beat a racist down twice, I got paid for it. Twice.
“Today was a good day, Bikhai. A very good day.”
Commission for @rakastyi !! thank you for commissioning me!
Behold the Himbo!
Ra’kastyi as done by @taproot-bread in all his “I’m telling you a ridiculous proverb that I probably made up” glory. That or he’s describing just how long the piece of bread he wants is.
