In my eyes, BG3 is a romcom
Nothing to see here just my Tav having a cliché first kiss trip moment hahaha
Telior was reluctant at first to pull a stranger out of a spazzing rock but eventually a whole romcom had ensued
Act 1 was a huge will-they-wont-they slow burn musical for them

Assassin's Creed Syndicate - Sanctity: Doña Aimée Isabelle Henriette D'Artois-Cotoner, La Condesa de Tortosa.

-Portrait of Lady Aimée D'Artois, 1860.-
Aimée Isabelle Henriette Cotoner (Née D'Artois) was a French Philantropist, Socialite, Musician and Fashion Icon of the Spanish and French Courts in the 19th Century.
.
The youngest daughter of Frederic Alphonse D'Artois , Comte d'Eu and his wife, Marie Johanna von Lamberg. Being the granddaughter of Charles Ferdinand D'Artois, Duke of Berry and great-granddaughter of Charles X of France.
.
Born in 1830, the very year of the July Monarchy and the incredibly political tension in her country and her family. Aimée, despite being descendent of an Absolutist Monarchy Family, had her father and mother being much more alliegned with a Constitutional Monarchy, which made them eventually become allies to the French and Austrian Brotherhoods of Assassins.
.
Born and raised in Eu, Normandy. She was kept away from the chaos of the court most of her life. Receiving the best education her father could provide, she grew up to be a refined, eloquent and clever young woman. A lover of the arts and it's many forms.
.
Although her family's political connections to the Brotherhood, Aimée never showed interest in taking part in such business. Fearing what the connection between this other secret society could bring to her loved ones (Her family already have once being alliegned to the French Rite of the Templar Order), her worries would triple as her older sister, Félicité, married a Master Assassin of the Dutch Brotherhood and becamed an active ally to their cause.
.
She herself would dwell more into this world after being married to Carlos Rafael Cotoner y Moncada, Conde de Tortosa. Despite being arranged, love bloomed among the couple, that would go on and have five children, even if only two were born.
.
As the wife and mother of Spanish Master Assassins, her role in the Creed would fortify. The years spent among the Tenents would make her shape her world views to one closer to the Assassins, however, she never truly accepted or approved her husband and daughter's role in this. For she always lived afraid of loosing them in this secret war.
.
A loving mother, a caring wife, a noblewoman of the House of Bourbon, descendent of the very Capetian Dynasty, proud of her family and legacy... A woman who left her mark on history for her donations to charities and her work in the development of arts and music.
Hélix Data Base / Entry of the Countess of Tortosa
I made an OC database! I made this for myself and my wife initially, but I put a ton of time into designing it, and I wanted to offer it up to anyone else who might like to use this thing.
It's fully customizable, so you can add or subtract fields as you see fit, and most of the information will handle itself with very minimal Google Sheets know-how or formula skills. If you have a basic understanding of Excel formulas, you should be able to use this!
Check it out if you're interested! here's a shareable version anyone can make a copy of.
And if anyone runs into bugs or needs help implementing something let me know and I can see what I can do! Feel free to show me what you've done with it or tell me your thoughts — I'd love to hear :)
a quick introduction to my nomad oc’s in lieu of a proper oc page for now.
Casey Wade/Casey Vegas/V, 28 years old. Techie. Part time gambler, full time merc.
Bio: He grew up with the Bakkers after being orphaned as a child and settled into nomad life with his brother, though it took a few years until he really found his place in the family which unraveled completely when his brother killed their father and cut V's throat. Though he managed to survive, it was the second time he lost his family, and he fell hard into a gambling addiction trying to forget the lingering traumas. Constantly in debt and watching his ties to the Bakkers whither, he chose to start new in Night City with Jackie Welles. A merc’s life fulfilled a need for high-risk pay offs and provided the eddies to get his debtors off his back temporarily.
Disposition: Compassionate. Observant. Energetic. Smart but impulsive. Reckless. Can be dishonest and hides his feelings/problems. Tries to make up for mistakes by giving all of himself to others and never feels like he succeeds, especially since he often repeats them.
Info: After the death of his father, he spent a week in Vegas where he hit a lucky streak and amassed winnings over half a million eddies, but before he made it out of the city he was “mysteriously” attacked and lost everything. Some people believe the story, and others think the whole thing a lie, but it gained him the nickname either way.
Anson Wade/Dagger, 31 years old. V’s brother. Wraith outlaw.
Bio: After witnessing his parents murder at 9 years old, he slowly transformed himself into a bigger monster than what he knew to be lurking in the shadows. He looked after his brother when they were taken in by the Bakkers but grew more and more distant as he had a hard time accepting anyone else as family. He fell into crime at a young age which culminated when years later he killed his adoptive father and left his brother for dead before taking off on his own and beginning his bloody legacy throughout the NUSA. He eventually settled outside of Night City where he took charge of the Wraiths and even forged a working relationship with Maelstrom.
Disposition: Calculating, but prone to emotional outbursts that make him unpredictable. Ambitious. Cruel. Creative. Charismatic. Knows how to have fun. Can be manipulative, seeing people as pawns, and cares only about a very few (usually to his own dismay).
Family: V
Sexuality: Bisexual
Partner: Dum Dum
Info: He spent a couple years traveling in a freakshow where he mastered the “art of impalement”--sword swallowing. As well as knife trickery, he was known for gross out acts such as eating spiders, biting the head off a live snake, and even stabbing himself. He became an expert in human anatomy, which helped him as he killed and sold off pieces of his audience for a hefty profit.
Lilith Rune, 26 years old. Wraith outlaw. Dagger’s right hand.
Bio: She may be as cold and callous as they come to outsiders, but she considers the ragtag murderous Wraiths to be family, and will do anything to assure they not only survive, but thrive. Sick of nomad ideals and “hypocrisy”, she left her original family and took to self preservation by holding up roadside diners and other outback businesses across the NUSA. She meets Dagger during a botched stick up in the Midwest and follows him to the Badlands outside of Night City where she runs the Wraiths like a bonafide clan. While she tries to forge bonds with the other Wraiths, Dagger is the only person she lets see her vulnerable. She is respected for her age and looked to as a leader and anyone who knows anything knows not to cross her. If it’s not Dagger’s ire to be dealt with, its hers and that is even worse.
Disposition: Outwardly stoic. Loyal. Perceptive. Brutal but disciplined. Clever. Diligent. Vindictive. Holds a grudge, carefully executes plan of revenge.
Family: Dagger, Wraiths.
Sexuality: Asexual
Partner: N/A
Info: She keeps a tally of her kills tattooed across her body. Each hatch mark represents a memory, some of them good and some of them bad, but she swore to herself she’d never forget a single one. If you’re unlucky enough to wind up on her bad side she’ll mark you too, giving your corpse a matching brand so everybody knows what sealed your fate.
Jet Beretta, 30 years old. Mechanic.
Bio: A lifelong transient, struggling to find his place in the world. He rode with the Bakkers as an adolescent, and is old friends with Dagger, who uses his garage to fix and outfit Wraith vehicles and hold supplies. He’s one of the few mechanics who willingly work with Wraiths to the disappointment of his aunt, Dakota, but he is not one to turn down a hefty payday and will take money from anyone despite tactics or morals. After brief stints in both Snake Nation and the Aldecaldos he joined a biker clan where he took to drinking, wandered into a minefield and lost an arm and leg. He went solo after that, but never stopped yearning for belonging. He lives in the back room of his garage and employs Iris Tanner when she’s around.
Disposition: Friendly. Charming. Gregarious. Has a tendency to be greedy (with time and money). Ultimately needy and a little insecure, but he hides it behind a self-deprecating humor. Easy to take advantage of.
Family: Dakota Smith
Sexuality: Pansexual
Partner: Panam Palmer (ex), Iris Tanner (FWB)
Info: He’s spent time in every niche circle imaginable including bare knuckle fighting, death races, and competitive drinking. You name it, he’s probably done it, and he’s amassed an arsenal of completely useless skills he hopes might impress somebody someday. At the same time it’s a reminder of the many failures in his life. Good thing he keeps busy so as to not dwell on it.
So I’m doing a small porject-ish where I give my OCs proper bios + short story, including fandom ones, and, well, if my Cross hasn’t deviated from canon enough to enter AU territory, Idk what is! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I had fun doing this tho, I dob;t know why haha. But yeah! Some bio cards for these two under the cut!
If you thought this’d make me share Hero’s name publicly you’ve thought wrong… for now ;’D
Hiii love ur oc!! Such a unique design!! I like how you didn't follow the character creation stuff that much for your tav
Care to share more of him?
Aww Thank you, anon! This made me so happy when I first read it!
And yes of course I'd love to share more about him!
Say hi to Telior Silverleaf! 🍂🐿️
I suppose I can share how I conceptualized him---
Telior was actually originally my RDR oc named "Gavin Skye" but ever since getting into high fantasy media, I revamped him :>
One major fact about him is his backstory and origins is heavily tied to LOTR/The Hobbit lore! His outfit is inspired by Legolas and Tauriel's woodland realm attire (since I didn't want to keep drawing the armor I gave him everytime I draw him)
His personality is based on the whimsical nature of folklore fairies and jovial wood elves, but since he ran away he was forced into trying to survive a "dog eat dog" reality and his alter ego that he adopted is based both on robin hood and Shrek's Puss in boots.
Also another funny fact; don't judge me but I was supposed to pursue Halsin's romance but the moment I met him for the first time, they just looked like father and son to me XD
So in my own little weird universe, Telior is Halsin's long lost son hahaha
I suppose that's all I'll share for now :>
I plan on making more content and art about him soon!
Especially his relationships with all the companions + my brother's DUrge (since his character is also tied with Telior's story)
