What is Regin like when he basically becomes a grandfather? What do the fluffs think of him? Does he ever look after them?
Sorry it took a while for me to reply to this but - I had to draw something!While he does not like the idea of becoming one - and it is too often a reminder of how old and how damaged his body is at this point in life, he at least tries to be a good grandparent even if a strict and serious one. I mean, someone has to teach the fluffs how to properly hide if something happens, what things to avoid - and hw to properly troll their parents in a smart, uncospicious way.The fluffs are still too young to have anything but love for him, especially when he teaches them practical things, or they get to see Grumpa's fishtanks (Which he has set up just for them)He does look after the sea of trouble: not over too long periods of time, though.He'll be damned if he lets some health chart tell him if he can or cannot take the kids camping.Thank you for the ask!
What has happened to the third guy, Vitus, if I recall properly?
So many wonder the same thing... As far as now it is not something any of the characters have resolved in the campaign... so we, and them, will keep wondering...
Nooo your comms are open, I really wish I could afford one as I absolutely adore your art <3 It's just so beautiful and full of love! Do you open often? As I'd love to get an illustration or Wing-it one from you of my Shepard and Garrus ^^ I hope you don't mind me sending this ask and have a wonderful evening or day =)
Ahhh my such kind words thank you ;; it makes me so happy to read such comments and I rarely know how to reply :’D I usually open commissions via Tumblr every month and half or so. However, you are always welcome to send me an email and I can contact you again directly when they are soon to open. Thank you again for the note! Have a wonderful day! :3
Because I saw you reblog the OC ask thing and couldn't resist: How is T's relationship with Varik affected by the knowledge that he's having children with Cilea? Do things get extremely awkward and tense? Thanks in advance! ^u^
Thank you for the ask! - In truth, T did not like the news at all - three is too many at once. He disliked the whole prospect - due to T’s personality and emotional wounds. So this new relationship started with the wrong foot.: On one side Varik does not want T’s pessimism to rub on his children even before they are born - and on the other, given his emotional wounds and past, T fears the new connections and affections are going to be cut abruptly as they have often been in the past. Due to this, T spent a lot of the time with Cilea, and simply avoiding Varik. He still does, even in the current session present time. Thank you again for the ask! :3
If you wouldn't mind... why does Varik actually have a scar?
Hey Anon! Thank you so much for the question <3
Some time before his public service year was over, he got a job as a test pilot for the air force R&D. The thrill, the risk, being able to help improve things plus amazing competent people in a great work environment: he loved his work. However, being good as he was, and as young as he was, overconfidence set in his skill to handle situations: he started to push the limits, thinking he do this or another thing better. So, as it often happens when we think too much of ourselves: life showed him his place. He decided he knew better when to abort a certain test: it went wrong of course, and he learnt a crushing lesson on humility. While he could have gotten the scar healed along with everything else (future sci fi medicine!), he decided to keep it as a reminder of stupidity, and well, he does believe in owning one’s mistakes.
After his time on R&D, some other situations have made the scar get worse through the years…. Or he got new ones but, still a preferable turnout of events.
So I don't believe I've ever gotten to know your OCs! I know Varik a little from browsing your tumblr, but I'm a bit curious about the rest! Who are the nerds and what do they do?
Thank you so much for the question! And… apologies for not answering earlier. I was contemplating how to answer this - sadly there’s no really short version for it…so yeah, here I go. Apologies for the length of the answer ahead of time…! >_<
For @kingfreakingrican
First and foremost, it might be good to know these characters belong to a campaign I’ve been DMing or been a player of for the past three years. Originally someone else was to DM but I ended up taking the mantle, for good or worse. The characters change, and evolve plenty in that time so… how a character is, feels and what they pointedly are doing, depends a lot on which time of the story we’re at, if this makes sense. The characters may or may have more or less influence in the story or on the PCS, but I do love making recurring characters from all species. I will, however refer to the most… mentioned ones? At least for starting arcs, especially those in the Citadel Reconstruction Project as that story has gone forward and developed in RP sessions through 3RL years, (about 5 years IG.) Imagine this is the “pilot episode” and we’re talking about season 4 or something :D.
Citadel Reconstruction Project - Takes place immediately after the war. Stranded on Earth, people start picking up the pieces from the war: cleaning and reconstruction efforts begin, either on Earth or the Citadel now stuck on Earth Space - as stranded aliens wait for the Relays to reactivate to get news from their homeworlds - while also trying to salvage what is left of their lives. Has had consecutive arcs running through the last 3 years.
Penelope Wilson - A former BaaT child, now doctor specialized in Xenobiology, who has lived most of her life in the Citadel. Trying to put her life and skills to good use.
Varik Naharis - Former test pilot and military pilot, assigned to ferrying and transportation in the Civilian Quadrants within the Citadel. Is heavily fighting with PTSD while also looking after his younger sister, who at the best of times, is a handful.
Kendra Naharis - A communication specialist with a charming voice and a volatile temperament, still serving her public years. Resourceful and smart, yet she is fighting with parental resentment and feelings of abandonment.
Bentarog Urdnot - A young Krogan in a program to help integrate their people into the Civilian lifestyle without the mercenary tags. With a strong sense of honor and firm believer of Wrex’ philosophy that Krogan can be more than a stereotype.
Kallus Sylnus - A cyber warfare specialist who did not really do everything as the law dictated - especially that part in which he stole an AI from a military facility. Somehow ended as a data sorter for C-Sec.
Regin Tacitus - Responsible for a shelter in the lower levels of the Citadel, he is a subtle grumpy ally to almost everyone, and a helping hand to those most overlooked.
Els Baer - A Salarian investigator looking into a ring of Red Sand dealers that have taken the chaos of the Citadel as an opportunity to claim territory for future operations.
… as the story progressed new characters appeared, such as Vitus Varsis (Strike Force Soldier) Cilea Elvodonis (turian figther pilot), Edei’Maar vas Qu’Lian (Quarian Marine) , Siana Tevos (Theoretical physicist), Irverreth’Tau vas Pioneer (Weaponsmith), Arran Narr (Salarian!)- , and the families of many characters also appear now and then. It also moves from the Citadel to other locations.
Cyclone - Takes place 15 years after the war, while settling a multispecies colony on a former Quarian Planet in the Terminus System. Science, a bit old archeology on not Prothean stuff, and action.
Ril’Xar vas Zeppal - Head of the Biology Department in the colony, examining the savage flora and fauna of the place. Highly qualified in both medicine and cybernetics, with a specialization in biotics due to his own circumstance. Recurring characters next to, include his Asari wife Erai, and daughter Neera.
Sidus Daerian - Overqualified Turian security guard with a rough background as a former Cabalite. Stabs things, maybe sometimes he asks a question later. Prefers to avoid trouble.
Daora Bennet - Our friendly Asari mechanic with no biotic talent whatsoever yet overcompensates with a wide collection of “antique” vehicles.
Jaedra - Savant Salarian Hacker, that got pulled inside a Volus conspiracy. Gets saved by the characters above, only to betray them in the end for his own goals. (*shakes fist!*).
Other recurring characters include Hanar reporters, Elcor trafficants and Vol plotters of course.
Apologies for the long post, and I hope this helps clarify at least a little bit of the mess of the characters. Considering we are so further ahead, so many characters have appeared and I really do not know how to introduce them without lengthy and tedious explanations :’D
If you have read all the way up to here, perhaps anyone has any idea in regards how to present the stories / characters? I thought maybe character profiles or maybe just introductions to each of the arcs or something? IDK I’ll stop rambling…!
