#Drifter oc

Dear God Morrigan, you have NO CHILL. For real though, Drifter Morrigan absolutely cannot do subtle, even if her life depended on it. Sorry Arthur, she's just like this...

I don't usually post OC stuff because I'm notoriously secretive BUT! Meet my Drifter, Caelum (they/them)!

I’m probably gonna use this art as a character sheet later on when I get my shit together. It was fun to design their transference suit, which is (yeah) all based on Entrati motifs.

i never properly introduced these mooks to the world, despite always wanting to. look at my white haired men (and yvit too, hi yvit) the main characters of my funny little fan-story called Tungsten Latticework. they have the protagonist curse of Never Being Allowed To Have A Nice Time Ever [read about them under the cut vvv]

being technically the same person, they share a rough upbringing. coming from a reasonably well-respected, but brutally harsh household, they never knew much kindness in life, and turned inward to focus on their studies - the only way they figured they might get the appreciation they desperately lacked. until the zariman incident, that is... they're both extremely intelligent (especially in the field of engineering), and extremely volatile people. bitter and resentful to the core, everything about them is sharp and unfriendly - inward and outward

to the left is 54 (fifty-four), or fif for short. he takes the role of the drifter, duviri's great and terrible outlaw. an eternity of waking up only to die left quite the mark on his psyche, coating his tongue in venom and sparking embers between his teeth. he'd give anything to get out of duviri once and for all, but he's halted by the existence of his counterpart in the origin system: two of the same person can't live in the same plane of existence. no matter how hard he tries, he's stuck in a prison of his own making. it drives him mad he makes quick friends (""friends"") with lodun. you know, the guy who killed him a kjhillion times. it works out as well as one might expect; two stubborn, bullish hotheads with a penchant for violence... but like knows like. "there's one guy in this kingdom who understands me and i fucking hate him". they somehow sort of get along. fif usually does whatever oddjob lodun tasks him with, purely to feel like he's doing something useful with his forever-time. to feel like he belongs

to the right is xenon. he takes the role of the operator, the fierce and fearless tenno. he hates that title. he hates all of it, he hates being a killer. so, after The Sacrifice, he too leaves the tenno faction. he opts to work with the corpus, to invent technologies to hinder his kinsmen. he works under alad v (who else would be insane enough to get a tenno on board), and despite taking a while to adjust, he flourishes in this environment. he finds immense success with his inventions and prototypes. it's killing him. he's never felt more unhappy in his life, but... this is what he wanted, right? he tries to choke the feeling down with praise from his accomplishments, and it almost doesn't fail he's still haunted by his past. not only that, but entities beyond his understanding seek to make his waking and sleeping hours just a little bit worse. the man in the wall torments him - mocks him - in the form of a mangled corpse-twin. from a different angle, a metaphysical copy of him is threatening to take the miserable little life he'd spent so long carving out for himself. xenon is terrified every single day of his life. dude can't catch a break

tucked away beside xenon is his cephalon, yvit. he is a sweetheart. originally an orange octahedron, xenon granted him a humanoid body as part of an experiment. he definitely has very specific feelings about it, but he manages to push them down deep inside. he would never reject a gift from his operator yvit certainly has a lot on his mind, but he's a competent and kind companion to xenon (who takes this love for granted like crazy. if only he allowed himself to be loved...). he particularly enjoys history and record-keeping, being able to recite many codices by heart (though he is a machine, so it's sort of cheating). likes keeping his appearance tidy, especially with his new body

things my drifter does on her day off

cave exploring (still wants to know what is under that loin cloth)

climb incredibly tall buildings (tubular bells are for wimps)

people watch (hoping to catch a glance of luscinia) 

admire the local wildlife (get chased by tamms)

"So, small Chronicling child.... You seek my wisdom?" "Yes, I do, but if you'd-." "I shall say nothing until you until you render payment..." "Yes, but-." "My cheese, child! I demand my cheese!"

finally decided on a name for my drifter. this is jerry and he sucks

[code-edge]

Ever since the new update arrived, there had been a lot of stuff cooking in my head and I just have to write it out here because I am forever lazy about updating my google site.

Anyway, my OC drifter headcanons:

calls herself Anya to differentiate herself from her operator self

she is uncharacteristically kind, quiet and only speaks when necessary

like her operator self, she enjoys sleeping a lot, and this is something that the Hex took notice of

she sleeps like a log, and had to be gently shaken or risk having limbs cut off

she and Naya (her operator self) have decided that dreaming is their way of communicating

she likes to sing and has taught a few songs to the operator

singing has always been her way to keep herself sane during her endless duviri hell

she is, however taught to 'dance' by Naya

her dreaming would sometimes leak, and it's likely that the hex members have accidentally peered into it

both she and Naya are foodies, and plant girls

she's pretty straightforward about letting people know that she is protective of the operator

she hopes to bring pizza back to the origin system so Naya can have a taste of it

she often has nightmares about duviri, which is why she often talks to the operator during their dreams

she has difficulty forming relationships with other people, which is why she's having a hard time communicating with the hex

she has yet to raise her voice to anyone, and this is mostly because of her time in duviri where she would scream almost everyday until she eventually got tired of it

she has developed a liking for floofs after Naya showed her a floof of Ordis

got angry at Ordis once when she first popped out of duviri, and Ordis swore he could feel Ordan Karris wanted to pop out at that moment

while she puts on a nonchalant face most of the time, she's self-deprecating, almost anti-social and she's trying her best

The operator version will be on a separate post-

I don't go here (yet) but warframe: 1999 has got me thinking about my Guys again so i doodled them.

[morriganjules]

Sweet Sol and Lua, I am melting at being called a daftie by Arthur.

I've been making a conscious effort not to "come on too strong" and it seems to be working! Also, yay cooking lessons! IRL I am not great at cooking (mostly mental health related, I just don't want to/can't concentrate/processes overload me) but I feel like with Arthur teaching me I'd be a-ok.

I guess Morrigan is canonically a terrible cook as she's never had to cook properly or had the chance, living off rations...

[teenytinycoffeebean]

In between Tennotober prompts and wayyy too excited for the new goth drifter look 👀
