#Naomi Westerkamp

[long-liv-prairies]

Just thinking about Naomi and Cullen post-trespasser... living on a farm in Fereldan with their gaggle of kids, helping Templars get off of lyrium...

[ma-sulevin]

So, a couple of weeks ago I commissioned @learielle to make a birthday present for one of my very favorite people and I’ve been sitting on it forEVER waiting until the right day to share.

And it’s finally time! I want to wish @long-liv-prairies a VERY happy birthday. I’m glad we’re friends :)

I hope you enjoy this drawing of Cullen and Naomi (because it’s beautiful and I can’t quit looking at it either).

Traveling

So I’m going through TSA and I’m lazily people watching (as you do) when suddenly I walk by this woman and I seriously had to do a double-take. She looked almost exactly like @long-liv-prairies‘s Naomi Westerkamp O_O

SO UNREAL

[long-liv-prairies]

I’m rewriting Neither Angels, Nor Demons, Nor Powers and it resulted in this new interaction between Naomi and Cullen that I’m quite pleased with. (At this point, Naomi is still learning words)

They were at the tavern doors, and Cullen held the door as Naomi entered. The interior was dim compared to the bright morning light, and noisy as many of Haven’s residents came here seeking breakfast. Cullen worked his way toward the front and caught the barkeep’s attention. The woman, Flissa, got him a serving of that morning’s fare before the rest, and he turned to jostle his way back out, Naomi in tow. She was wincing when they reemerged, and rubbed at her side carefully. Cullen handed her the food.

“Come back whenever you need more,��� he told her.

“I have no… no things to to—” she grunted in frustration, looking around. Suddenly she shoved the food back in his hands and carefully bent down to pick up a rock. She then took the food back and put the rock in his hand. “No thing to have food from others,” she said, looking up at him so earnestly and hopefully that he couldn’t help but grin.

“Money,” he offered, placing the rock back in her hand. “Money is used to buy things, pay for them.” He shook his head. “You don’t need money, the Inquisition will pay.”

She stared at the rock. “Money,” she repeated. She pointed to the food. “I don’t need to pay for food?”

“Not here.”

Her eyes were suddenly wet, and she ducked her head to wipe at the tears. “Sorry,” she mumbled. “Thank you.”

“It’s alright,” Cullen offered, “I know… I know this is an adjustment.”

She looked back up, and a ghost of a smile crossed her lips.

I.... spent way too long working on these portraits lol. If you have a lot of patience (or are a perfectionist like me), you can really get some perfect character portraits! Artbreeder

I. Love. Dollmakers.

Here we have modern!Naomi Westerkamp, modern!Nassella Lavellan, modern!Abigail Westerkamp, modern!Sybil Trevelyan, and modern!Gemma Trevelyan!

[long-liv-prairies]

Finally playing with the new computer! I started by taking Naomi out for a short spin with the free camera, and now I want to plan on a full playthrough with Sybil! (cause I actually haven’t finished her game yet...)

[long-liv-prairies]

Excuse me while instead of writing I look at old screenshots and cry because I love them so much

[long-liv-prairies]

TMI Friday Night!

I missed the boat for drunk writing circle (and I haven’t been able to write much lately anyway), but I’m for answering any questions about me or my OCs if you have them!

[long-liv-prairies]

Ok... I told myself I was going to wait to post these portraits I commissioned from @learielle... but I just can’t anymore! I have no idea when I will get to the point in my writing when I could release these along with it, and I don’t want these beautiful portraits to wallow on my computer forever!

So here we have the Rutherford-Westerkamp kids! Gwenan Aleida, David Hans, Emerson Stanton, Ophelia Gretja, and Aster Quinn. @learielle did an amazing job capturing them, and I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out!

[long-liv-prairies]

I’ve posted these three separately before, but I decided that I needed them lined up together! Naomi, James, and Abigail Westerkamp, all beautifully drawn by @merwild, and ready to take on Thedas!

[long-liv-prairies]

Spent some time with my OCs in-game the last few days.

[long-liv-prairies]

How would your OC/S react to being hit by a snowball?

Sybil in #15 and #16, James in #8, Nassella in #6, Naomi in #21 (Thedas for all!). :)

Ok! I had to pull together a lot of different pictures for most of these looks, but it was fun, and gives me a chance to show off some of my Pinterest stuff! Thanks for asking!

Sybil Trevelyan

15. Summer clothes

Sybil almost exclusively wears dark colors, and many of her clothes are ragged and more patches than original fabric. In the hot, humid Free Marches summers she prefers to wear strappy tops that leave most of her chest and shoulders exposed, and tight cropped pants (shorter than the ones pictured). But she burns easily, so she always has with her a thin cowl that she can sling over her shoulders and head when she’s in the sun, or pull off and wrap around her waist or hips or stuff in a pocket when she’s inside. The cowl also has the benefit of covering up some of her bright hair and skin when she’s trying to blend into the shadows.

16. Winter clothes

Sybil’s winter clothing is much like her summer clothing, just with more layers. She has to carry around everything she owns in a couple of bags, so in the winter she just piles on a few more layers to stay warm and calls it good. A ragged sweater and home-made, long sleeved tunics with built in hoods are staples, and a longer wool cloak for those especially cold nights.

(ok, i was going to put a cut, but my theme makes the pictures too small!)

James Westerkamp

8. A party outfit 

James doesn’t mind dressing up, so long as he is sure he’ll look good in whatever he is wearing. He’s not a fan of the tight, frilly clothes Orlesian men like to wear, and anything involving silks and velvet are just a bit too much for him. He discovers quickly that Ferelden finery suits him the best. The clothes are well-made from practical materials like leather and wool, but embellished and finely dyed and woven to look beautiful. He always feels confident when wearing something like this.

Nassella Lavellan

6. Formal gala garb

Nassella has only worn a ballgown once in her life, and it was something to behold (I’ve had to cobble together the pieces as nothing like what I imagine exists). Drawing inspiration from sleek Dalish clothing and armor, the dress featured a long, flowing skirt in dark charcoal with a slit up one side. The bodice was plate armor gilded in gold and intricate floral designs. The charcoal skirts were covered in folds of gauzy fabric with leaves and flowers embroidered with gold thread, emeralds, and peridot. It was the most expensive thing she had ever seen, much less worn.

Naomi Westerkamp

21. The most expensive thing they own

If we are speaking strictly clothing, then the gown Naomi wore to the peace talks at the Winter Palace is the most expensive. It was cleaned and repaired after that night, but she hasn’t had another chance to wear it. Made from dark green velvet and rich brocade, it resembled the dress on the right. However, the neckline was cut lower and the bodice encrusted with bright green peridot, matching and drawing out the color of her eyes at the time.

However, beyond clothing, the most valuable thing Naomi owns is her engagement ring. A cluster of enchanted precious stones set in lyrium-infused and enchanted silverite, Naomi never asked Cullen how much it cost Dagna to make. But aside from the precious stones and metals, the mana the ring contains, eventually built up to a staggering amount after years of drawing the excess from Naomi’s body, is beyond priceless.
