No spoilers please. I know this probably won’t happen but it would be funny if something like it did.

Can we just take a moment to appreciate the genius design decision of having Corvo's health potions be the literal elixirs that prevent the rat plague?

It takes what could've been a simple gameplay mechanic that nobody would've thought twice about and grounds it in the world and the lore. It explains why Corvo is never at risk of contracting the plague, despite coming in closer contact with it than the vast majority of people - he's chugging these things multiple times a day. It also explains why random people would keep these things stashed everywhere - it's not just loot for you, the player, to be rewarded with, it's their actual supply of life-saving medicine.

And when you think about it that way, it makes every moment you casually snatch an elixir from someone's nightstand a little more impactful. You're not just topping up on health potions, you're literally stealing the only method by which people can be kept safe from the plague. In low chaos, you'll end up not needing most of the ones you come across by the end of the game, because you'll be staying out of combat. But in high chaos, you'll be taking them a lot more. Which means less elixir to go around, and therefore, more people dead from the plague.

I used to think that the increase in weepers in high chaos was mainly down to Corvo leaving more dead bodies lying around. But I think that this is an even more potent explanation. Because of course going around and hoovering up all the elixir in the city would have consequences. And who are the people who have the least access to elixir to begin with, from whom stealing it would take the greatest toll? The poor, obviously. Who you most often see becoming weepers. What a game.

Happy Birthday! Love your comics, both Star Wars- and Dishonored-related. Also love your style, it's awesome!

*Gives a heavy plazma cannon* Now go, do a crime 👀

My gift for @ririrules60 for the Fugue Feast hosted by the lovelies at @dishonoredgiftexchange. I chose their prompt of wanting to see the dynamic of High Chaos!Daud and Low Chaos!Corvo

[uncontrol-freak]

yay! finally I can gift @revivisection his obligatory corvosider piece I did on the occasion of Fugue Feast run by @dishonoredgiftexchange. I hope you like it! attaching them as separate pages as well :^)

The fact that in DotO there is canonically a book that is nothing but corny and (very) poorly disguised corvosider erotica is funny enough on its own, but the fact that it's an actual retelling of Corvo's marking scene from the first game makes me think that it must have been written by one of the only two people present at the time (probably the Outsider because this sounds exactly like something he'd do).

Which is. Probably just about the funniest way to imply that we've moved past the "the inherent and probably accidental erotic undertone of branding someone with your name" stage and straight into the realm of "the Outsider writes explicit fanfiction about himself and Corvo, probably doing the Void-dweller equivalent of giggling while kicking his legs all the while".

[hanakihan]

since it’s annual dishonored brainrot period

you know Corvo either being mute from birth OR losing his tongue due to his torture period makes much more sense when Burrows confesses everything to Corvo

It becomes less stupid in way of ‘you’re gonna be executed tomorrow anyway it’s not like you’ll escape’ and more in a way of ‘you aren’t able to talk anyway, who you will tell?’

That way it starts to look like even more of a mockery from Burrows, spilling everything to a man who won’t be able to tell anyway not because he’ll be dead next morning, but because he literally can’t tell anyone

Like yes I know second game straight up denies such possibility with Corvo now being officially voiced, but before second game was even announced it was a solid (and still is honestly) head canon for me when I play Dishonored

There’s also something absolutely terrifying at meeting this masked man and he literally doesn’t answer anything you tell him

Can you draw like, corvo with rats? Is that weird? I just really like the rats in Dishonored... Also your art is very awesome...

he found some friends. or they found him, depends on who you ask

there's more Corvo than rats but i guess that still counts :)

also, no Corvo with rats is not weird, he canonically has some kind of bond with them

No matter if you play High Chaos or Low Chaos, the one thing that never changes about Corvo Attano is his unwavering love and adoration for Emily.

The player chooses how (if he'll be her sword or her shield, if he'll save her with blood or with mercy) but the fact remains that Emily is his sole motivation and that this rat man is going to protect his daughter with everything he's got to the end.
