Hey <3 Can I ask 2, 11 and 17 for Kal and the Thorne ask game? :)

2. I answered here!

11. Does your Rook consider any other wardens their personal hero?

Davrin ;) but I mean he does consider Davrin a hero personally. He is the definition of hero in Kal's eyes, just look what he did for the griffons! He's so caring, devoted, and brave. But outside of that, he's always heard the tales of the Hero of Ferelden and found her defiance and resilience admirable. She stood against impossible odds, and managed to come out as a victor in the end. He hopes to be able to find her, even though rumors were she'd gone missing looking for a cure.

17. What kind of relationship does your Rook have with Evka and Antoine?

Antoine was the one who took in Kal first, and he and Evka could see that Kal was... adrift? Needing someone to connect to. They became fast friends, and soon the three of them weren't far apart. Even if they were shipped out on different patrols often due to the First Warden's distaste for Kal's vibes. The three of them together would only lead to trouble, right?

DECAY is a minor godling, the kind that hatches out in swarms and fights its siblings tooth and nail for the right to gorge itself on bigger gods. these types tend to tear each other to pieces in the vicious ascent to power, latching onto power where it seeps out of the pores of greater deities until they're strong enough to hold their own.

occasionally, a god's demise leaves its parasites with nothing left to feed on. the weaker ones flee to find a new host, while the most bloated among them settle to metamorphose, peeling open into a mockery of a true god.

HARVEST is a devout and zealous follower of his own path, whose charge led him to the concept of faith— keeping his own, and letting it drive him to fulfill the true aspect of his charge; his own survival. a parasite engorged on the blood and energy of a god offers its own unique opportunities, and swearing your unwavering fealty to the concept of something greater can sometimes be the difference between power and death.

both of them reside peripherally to The Abscess, where DECAY dropped like a tick off their host, and where HARVEST can drip-feed them godsblood to whet their hunger. a shrine in the eye of the fall tethers DECAY, while HARVEST seeks his own means of survival, always returning.

Megaera > Dreg (not drawn) > Goliath

I like to think of character creation as a series of problems and questions to answer such as. what if there were two women. and what if one of them looked kind of like final pam. and also what if they were in a situationship manufactured by one of them dating a twink to piss the other off.

Goliath (Gilly to her friends <3) is a bioweapon belonging to Megaera, who kind of very literally owns her due to she brought Gil back to life and enhanced her and is the sole reason she is still walking. Meg considers her to be her property anyway. it's like if boss/employee was even more fucked up.

anyway because that wasn't toxic enough, Gil messes around with Dreg to piss off Meg but works NOT because she is jealous but because Meg thinks Gil should have way better standards due to being basically perfect in every way. you're welcome.

Dreg is just kind of confused and scared about all this mostly.

I drew them in 'smallclothes' because I was playing around with body types but I will draw them more properly laterrr maybe drawing is hard,,,

clumsy sort of demo for a piece of early reboot lore i think i'm bringing back; alongside dragons and their descendants, there are also..... [placeholder name ok i dont have one] and their descendants. who are massive feline/sphinxlike creatures, quadrupedal in their undiluted form and usually taking the form of a big cat of some variety, often winged.

as they intermingle with more humanoid beings, their traits get watered down over generations, and you get a spectrum between the three sort of basic forms seen above. one of whom some of you may recognize :^]

actual fully quadrupedal undiluted dragons at this stage are EXTREMELY rare and VERY old, most of them having made themselves humanoid over generations. whereas the [sphinx kitty guys] are a lot more common in their original form, and usually comparable-ish age to current humanoid dragons (though they lean towards living longer).

iskal is an example of a much watered-down and therefore not very magically inclined combo of dragon & [kitty], which makes him this silly catboy version you know and love.
