WoL Inspo Chart Descriptive Text
Prompt text: Pick 6 characters that helped inspire/continue to inspire your WoL!
Jim Hawkins, from Treasure Planet (2002)
Meteor Survivor, from Final Fantasy X|V (the close-up of Dawntrail / Viper!Meteor specifically)*
Merry Brandybuck, from The Fellowship of the Ring (2001) - specifically, an image of him standing on a table and singing with a tankard of ale in his hand
Will Turner, from one of the later Pirates of the Caribbean films (fuck if I know which one, at this point)
Robin Hood, yes, the fox one specifically
Thor, from the MCU
In this image Mjolnir rests on his shoulder. He looks toward the camera, his eyes luminous corner to corner. Behind him is a technicolor sky shot through with lightning.
*Since Rhot was designed to be my Canon!WoL, i.e. designed to belong to and in the world of Eitherys, Meteor is here unironically!
Visual Inspirations and Motifs:
Tarot Major Arcana VIII and X: Strength and Wheel of Fortune
A spray of Scilla flowers (aka Sea Onion)
A photograph of a clear night sky with Polaris at the center
A dramatic solar flare gushing from the surface of the sun
The tube of a breaking wave, the water bright blues and greens
Quotes, Lyrics, Verses that Inspire:
BLAET & SAELZ | BLOOD & SALT
-Rhot’s family credo
River to the ocean goes / a fortune for the undertow…
-”Find the River,” R.E.M.
And I went home / chasin’ twisters in the canyon / my cathedral is the badlands…
-”Chasing Twisters,” Delta Rae
“Once a selkie finds its skin again, neither chains of steel nor chains of love can keep her from the sea. From that day on, it was forbidden to harm a seal on the island.”
-The Secret of Roan Inish (1994)
