4692 AR: Terendelev drives off Khorramzadeh
https://pathfinderwiki.com/wiki/Terendelev
The ancient silver dragon drove off the demon following the demon’s attack on the city, nearly destroying its wardstone. This led to the call for the Fourth Mendevian Crusade.
Tag for some WIP from @kutkhart. Thank you so much!!! (´｡• ᵕ •｡`) ♡
I decided to show you a WIP of my first art with Aivu. I still like how this work turned out, so I decided to show you the process.
Here are some more processes of my Aivu artworks. I draw scatch and line on paper, then i scan and I color it in Photoshop or SAI. This is Aiva Hydra for the event in Ask and Aiva with wisteria. And the last art is Terendelev. My new artwork and a gift for a member of Ask Pathfinder CRPG. You will see it in color soon.
I tried to draw this art for my dear friend @kutkhart. (っ˘з(˘⌣˘ ) ♡ This is my first drawing of a human, or rather a gnome. I usually draw animals, but I really want to learn how to draw humans. The art did not turn out the way I wanted and I will try to draw it again. But I thought that this sketch deserved to be here, because this is my first sketch of Regill.
spare Zarali facts please? 👀 anything about her or/and her past maybe?
ok so a lot of this isn't 100% set in stone because i Do Not Know Shit about forgotten realms lore but whatever she's my baby i do what i want
she’s from the caldwell family of baldur’s gate; not from the main patriar branch but i imagine her dad is the brother or cousin of the lord
she was born from a pact between her father and a devil in service of mephistopheles as her mother couldn’t conceive a child of her own. her father made up a story about how he found a poor little abandoned baby on the streets of the lower city that he took in out of the goodness of his heart (i’m still trying to figure out what exactly the pact entailed but i imagine her dad is pretty fucked... probably spending an eternity in cania when he dies)
her dad held out hope for a long time that she’d grow into a normal human girl but…. nope. the horns and tail started growing pretty quick. her mother tried to file the horns down but they kept coming back
her mom never found out about the pact but she didn’t fully trust her husbands story; she probably figured he had slept with a tiefling girl or something. either way, she shunned zarali wholly, letting her know she wasn’t the daughter she wanted and that she would never be good enough for her. zarali got to stay with them because her dad felt bad but she was never treated as one of them
as she grew up and realized how different she was from the others, she began to seek out other tieflings, most of whom lived in the lower city. she tried to find a place with them, but even there she didn't belong - they found out she came from the upper city and they pushed her out. she's been forced to be on her own from an incredibly young age and now it's how she guarantees her own continued survival. being alone is the only way she knows how to be
her dad... tries to be good to her, hiring the best tutors he can in order to give her an upbringing and education worthy of a noble because she's still his daughter, but even so he's also kinda like
(dunno what he expected when having a kid with a devil but ya know)
as she grows older zarali just starts shutting herself off from the world bc the world doesn't want her anyway; she spends her teenage years in her father's library, reading everything she can get her hands on, eager to learn anything about everything. it's how she meets her patron - she finds a weird old book, summons an eldritch being and is like Yo what's up can you teach me cool stuff? (and of course her dad kept a bunch of secret old books, it's how he figured out his own pact)
her patron doesn't give two shits about her and zarali probably doesn't care much about it either tbh. i doubt it even knows she exists, but hey. she gets eldritch blast out of it. pew pew
she's smart as fuck and incredibly persuasive. she's great at lying (laughs in 20+ deception bonus in-game) and at blackmailing people. i mean, really, when your family just kinda ignores you and lets you do whatever, what else are you gonna do but sneak around the upper city and listen in on what the other nobles are doing?
before the events of the game, she mainly works with eldritch research and does some enchanting on the side. i'm thinking she either worked for sorcerous sundries or for helsik at the devil's fee but i'm not 100% sure yet
she is, more or less, held together by her plethora of trust issues. she likes to think she's alive because she refuses to trust anyone. let's just ignore the fact that this makes her incredibly lonely and emotionally stunted
she has fairly loose morals and mainly just does whatever she has to in order to survive. it's hard for her to care about others because she's been forced to only think of herself as the only important one. she doesn't kill randomly or for fun, though, or at least so she tells herself. she knows she doesn't always need to kill in order to solve problems, and she would often rather solve situations peacefully, but if she has to kill someone, she doesn't necessarily feel bad about it. it's just... part of life
she has a soft spot for kids and animals. she helps the tiefling kids in the grove without a second thought, and without wanting any reward. she downplays her intentions and acts like the whole thing is one big annoyance to her, a few snide remarks here and there because she's a bitch, but she still helps them because she knows what it's like to have no one at your side (it's like... she prefers being on her own, it's all she knows, but she also knows it's a shitty fate that's easily preventable and she doesn't want these kids turning out like her, you know?)
