I'm a little late because Kingmaker's birthday was two days ago. But I drew them for an indecently long time. Kingmaker has always been associated with early autumn for me, so I'm enjoying playing it now.

I definitely need a better camera for this handsome sad man.
Started a replay of Pathfinder: Kingmaker that I've been nursing to do for a while.
Harrim really is the gloomy comic relief. I like the idea of it being Tartuccio who does the successful check (technically he was making both as he had +9 to Jocelyn's +8 Diplomacy here). Adds a nice little contrast in approach and whether it works for someone like Harrim, and in turn adds a bit more to Harrim choosing Tartuccio later.
Though I also think Harrim's skepticism of the expedition has a lot more weight than the narrative assigns him, given that Jamandi doesn't even tell anyone what the expedition is for until they arrive, and expects seventeen random adventurers to figure out who gets the coronet while the other sixteen don't... that really sounds like a recipe for interparty fratricide.
(Though Doylistically, it happening like this is to give room for player characters to be inserted, so I'm not going to hold it against Jamandi.)
Ekun: *describes his family's violent grisly deaths*
Harrim:
Recently remembered this thing I'd been working on back in November 2021 while very unemployed that never saw the light of day as more than crops because it was never finished. Even the color one on the right was actually supposed to just be a test- I was so scared of messing up my big fancy drawing in my sketchbook I made a photocopy and colored that in to try out what I was doing. Even though I abandoned it years ago from frustration and have certainly grown as an artist since then, I kinda love looking back on it now. It had a lot of ambition and passion to it with the big five million character movie poster composition.
Blorbo of the year 2024
Thank you for the tag @redroomroaving! This has been a great way to look back on the year and realise what fun 2025 is going to be. No pressure tags for @the-barefoot-hatter, @d-e-w-p, @lizziemajestic, @des-no9, and @pricemarshfield
Blorbo of the Year:
It's been Bann Teagan from Dragon Age since September. Hello to the reason I started writing fanfiction.
Runners up:
Skoona from Baldur's Gate 3 (she's only a runner up because I just adopted her a little while ago. She'll probably be the headliner in 2025)
And Harrim from Pathfinder. I've only played half an hour and I'm so ridiculously amused by his weaponised depression.
New OCs this year:
So this is the perfect year to do this game, because it's been several years since I've made any OCs rather than just porting the same favourites into every universe over and over again (which is also valid and extremely fun, they end up being new OCs in their own right sometimes)
HOWEVER due to a whole lot of fic writing and getting into old crpgs in a big way, I now have a small handful of genuinely new OCs that I've come to adore.
Lux (Dragon Age)
I am unwell about my girl. Those of you who know me since I've made her know I will never be normal about her and never intend to. A Templar Knight raised by a fanatic under such intense conditioning, and then so completely neglected by the Order and Circle because she was obedient and quiet, that she didn't even understand how she was broken until someone finally saw her. Strange that it was a mage. Even stranger that it was Anders, who she'd escorted back after so many failed escapes. I want to write so much more of her in 2025, I want her to come to life and realise who she is as a person, as long and road as that's going to be because being a person is so, so heart. She means a lot to me because it's helped me come to terms with and be more comfortable with my anxiety over new situations or talking to new people because even after all these years I don't know the script. She's been thrown into a new life with no script, no instructions, nobody to tell her the right thing to do, and I will protect her with my life an write for her forever.
Garnet Aeducan (Dragon Age)
Apologies to Garnet, the prologue made you lose everything and I just went ahead and accidentally made you lose even more over the course of the game. You are a queen who lost her king and will mourn him for the rest of your days, but I'm glad I managed to find you some healing in post-game fic. I will find you some more next year.
Brennan Hawke (Dragon Age)
Bryony was who I played in DA2 but Brennan was made up for a fic and I fell in love with his stupid, talks-too-much self. Since he's a purple Hawke (the devil-may-care jokey dialogue options), he's a LOT of fun to write both externally and internally.
Brian and Freda (Discworld but also setting agnostic, I've already put them in Dragon Age and they're coming to A PLACE NEAR YOU)
Brian and Freda. I want to put them everywhere. My ridiculous comedy duo of two mages who just want to make money with increasingly circuitous schemes likes magical tourism services.
Grahim Berrycraft (Baldur's Gate 3)
An almost joke character I came up with for a fic that I've now fallen completely in love with. A forest gnome with a very dark sense of humour, Grahim runs a confectionary shop in Baldur's Gate. He reads the newspaper for the strangest and grimmest news and then makes themed desserts and candies. The kids love him. The adults are horrified. The patriars use his desserts as a status symbol, so he charges them through the nose but then gives free baked goods to the street kids. Wyll used to go there a lot as a boy and Grahim still remembers him very fondly.
Natti (Baldur's Gate 3)
shhhh is a secret ;) She'll de debuting in the fic 'Thrice Dead' very early in 2025
