Ordered for a special reconnaissance mission from Tiber Septim himself; Dram tries to adjust to Morrowind's blistering summer heat, as well as its fashion as he blends in with the locals! >:3

So I have no idea why, but for some reason I suddenly had no idea how to shade, or color?? XDD so it looks pretty awful to me, I feel like its just as bad as that Teldryn Sero picture I made earlier this year!

Still, I worked hard on it and I tried a few new things, and anything I try that's new, even if I think it looks awful I'm going to post! Progress and all that :p It was fun drawing Dram!

Is there a fanfiction of your Dunmer oc that I can read? Or is it just the comic entries that are spaced apart on your page?

Cryinggggggg and kicking my legs in the air

It's such a flattering question, honestly :"" I am very happy that my art has caught your attention in this way!!!

Now I'll try to pull myself together and give you the proper answer:

... So, I'm very insecure with writing for some reason (never know where to finish) and because of that the entire story of this OC is just some ideas in my head I usually share in DMs with anyone who's interested. If you want, I'll gladly tell everything you wish to know in this way. Or I'll just start posting about her on this blog if I stop being so socially scared... Or do some big epic illustrations for these texts (both of which is kind of unlikely 😭)

But for now, have some very rough sketches and facts for the mood:

She had an Argonian bestie when she was a kid at Chorrol but sadly that girl's dad was VERY traumatised by decades spent as a House Dres slave. And Colo-Nordic society she was surrounded with wasn't much kinder to her race.

Fortunately, one day she stumbled upon another Dunmer who didn't deserve all that hatred. He was a friend of that amazing Emperor who had saved her city from the invaders when she was ten years old, so he couldn't be bad like those violent Dunmer who ruined their race's reputation!

(also that dumbass made herself an ordinator scarf for the first date thinking it will make Dram nostalgic. It made him remember how those ordinators killed and almost tortured him 😭 (yeah, exactly in that order))

Some more random sketches

And bonus one with current Morag Tong grandmaster doing Dram's hair before sending him to execute his last(?) writ

I LOVE YOUR ARTSTYLE OMG...............................????!??!

THANK YOUU! This ask made me so happy that I couldn't answer it until I found something to offer in return

So

Here are some creatures I'd never show if it weren't for the motivation these words gave me

Including this very friendly shadowscale (he's smiling)

Plus this no less friendly apprentice and master necromancer duo.

I hope to tell you a bit more about this dunmer/breton guy on the left someday

4 of 7. Dagoth Vemyn

Dagoth Vemyn is the Lord of Vemynal, called the "Womb Serpent". Unsociable and bilious in communication even with his brothers, he nevertheless actively surrounds himself with subjects, in exuberant entertainment with whom he discovers new uses for their bodies. The passionate aspirations of the Times gave us the opportunity to play sacred music without instruments and tear flesh without knives. We owe them the opportunity to bless or punish all others with our divine gift, spreading it.

The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard release day \quq/ and so, we did a lil collab with @cerviero <3 I missed drawing that dragon

[ijiwaruuma]

Today is The Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard release day!

⠀⠀The game came with a Pocket Guide to the Empire that confirmed the most iconic elements of TES lore, as well as the only official comic book, the cover of which I decided to redraw with the first full-fledged dunmer of the series (sorry, dark elves from the previous games, you didn't have cool pet bugs and ash masks).

Special thanks to @mway1 for the flag

Got tagged by @weirdisme for Wip Wednesday just in time to show you baby Dram and Vivec from a piece I'm currently working on

Not tagging anyone today because I don't have much mutuals to pester (and should probably reconsider the way I manage my blog)

... Well, except for @falmerbrook because she seems like the type of person who secretly keeps their interesting unfinished art like a dragon keeps it's gold 👀

And @cerviero because above is true for her as well 🫵

@vrrl you too! 🫵🫵

I'm such a fat liar

(But, as always, no pressure of course)

[ijiwaruuma]

Remember that time when Mannimarco called him Arnand the Fox? That's the best explanation I have for now

And I had to get it out of my head as quick as possible

[ijiwaruuma]

I'm not shadowbanned anymore but 90% of my artworks are still not showing up in tags and it makes me furious tbh.

Leaving the previous text of this post under the cut so that people know what happened:

I can't see the DMs people are sending me... and the Messages tab is completely gone.

Waiting for an answer from Tumblr support team.

Update: My posts have also disappeared from search... And I can't even comment. Or leave likes. That's a bit upsetting.

First rule of being a ghost: don't mess with the mages

I'm not very fond of undead, but these two are an exception

[ijiwaruuma]

Greetings, I received your message in my email, but unfortunately I'm not sure why I can't see it (I don't fully understand how Tumbler works), here's a comparison of the Dram (left) and Cyrus (right)

They are almost the same height, but Cyrus is taller by just a few centimetres

I hope this has been useful, if there is anything else I may provide, let me know!

HOLY-

PERFECT PERFECT PERFECT thank you very much, it IS very useful and also VERY NICE of you to do! There's even such an informative side view 🙏 I got so excited it low-key cured my headache, honestly. So thank you again!

(For people who don't know the context:

Since Cyrus has a confirmed canonical height of 185cm I tried to figure out Dram's by placing them near each other in game. It didn't go well.

But maxandkon made it the better way!)

~183,5cm that is, people!

Using the first free day of a month to show you my take on Dram's mentor

3 of 7. Dagoth Odros

Lord of Odrosal, called "Guide of a Thousand Eyes" and "Vector Prophet of Allegories". He is the first to remind the children of Resdayn of their higher purpose and holds the keys to their destiny, opening the way for Truth into their dreams, after which they in turn find the way to Dagoth Ur. His inquisitive and diplomatic mind allows him to refine our consciousnesses in the same way that the energy-bearing hearts refine our bodies. To the best of the best, he passes on his knowledge of the art of sleepwalking, which he himself uses with a skill comparable only to that of Dagoth Ur himself.

Having lost his face and sight, Dagoth Odros gained the ability to see the Heart Lines, as well as observe the world through the half-slumber of the eyes of the Sleepers.
