Oh boy, I did this commission for the lovely and amazing @sofiemystique a while ago and never posted it!! 😅 I feel a little embarrassed not to have done it before, but I didn't do it because I'm not proud or happy with what I've done. On the contrary! But as you already know, I'm quite lazy when it comes to posting online. At the beginning I was totally into it, trying to post every day, every little thing I did. But now I'm taking my time, between life getting hard, work and longer personal projects.

Anyway, I don't make commissions normally but at a certain point I decided I wanted to challenge myself, so I opened only two slots on @thefadediscordserver. I was so honoured that Sofie entrusted me with her beautiful Alette. I wanted so much to create something good for her, because Sofie was always here for me, cheering and giving me comfort when I needed to. ❤️❤️

I loved going back to drawing Emmrich, but, damn, I truly hate how complicated his outfit is ( but at the same time it's part of what we like about him 😆 ).

New Look for Osla as i wasn't really satisfied with her prior "on duty" outfit. Am i going to regret adding so much detail when i'll have to redraw it? Yes but she looks pretty so it's worth it lol.

Also a great excuse to try out the new procreate brushes hehe

5 Random Facts About Your OC

okay so this has been hiding in my drafts for a while, but after writing a bit about lil Nahla, I think it's time to share a little more about her!

specific shoutout to @in-the-drowning-deep -- thank you for asking about my girl and inspiring me to talk more about her <3

Rules: post 5 random facts about your OC. It can be fun or tragic, spicy or not, short or long, with or without explanation, fascinating or mundane, your choice.

And as a little treat... how about some Nahla?

1. Nahla once served proudly in the military. In my story for her, she was not adopted but the child of a longstanding military family; she followed in her father’s footsteps, enlisted, and served with honors. Unfortunately, one of her superiors turned coat and, in an effort to discredit and disenfranchise the military of Tevinter, coordinated an assault that resulted in the deaths of civilians. Nahla, leading the charge, realized too late that their target was not a qunari outpost but a town, and carries those deaths close to her heart. She never re-enlisted, flunked out of Templar service, flunked out of guard service, and now helps the Shadow Dragons as personal penance for her (perceived) failures.

2. Nahla has a little apartment in Docktown, but she doesn’t live there. She could! But instead she uses it as a safe house for freed slaves, in case there isn’t an immediate out for someone. She keeps it tidy and well-stocked with things someone might need on their first night of freedom (food, fresh clothes, soap, etc) and has occasionally stayed there with people who are afraid to be alone (especially if it’s a child/children).

3. Nahla has a massive tattoo of a dragon. It starts at her right hand, goes up her arm, across her back, and down her left leg, where it curls around a gnarly scar she received during the aforementioned mission that went entirely wrong. Half of the dragon is fully filled in with scales. The other half, partially. For each person she is able to help rescue from slavery, she adds one scale to the unfinished side. In this way, she keeps a record and hopes to achieve balance for all of the lost lives she feels responsible for. Time will tell if it will be enough.

4. Nahla and Tarquin are best of friends! Tarquin is the one who recruited Nahla to the Shadow Dragons. He had heard of her family and of her, especially after the fallout of her mission and the subsequent court martialing of her commanding officer, wherein Nahla stood up and put her reputation on the line to share her testimony. After she failed to keep her position in the city guard, rankling against the structures and systems in place in Minrathous, Tarquin thought she could benefit from doing something a little more... behind the scenes. Working with the Shadow Dragons gives Nahla the outlet she needs to feel like she's balancing the scales again.

5. Nahla has an exceptional singing voice. She often sings while keeping busy, whether it's cooking, tidying up, cleaning her armor, or, you know... killing Venatori. It's a little unsettling, I'm sure, to have someone humming Cida Ciconia's latest ballad as they draw back their bow to obliterate you, but them's the breaks.
