OC Smash / Pass Tag Game

Tagged by @mystery-salad !

Rules: pretty self explanatory. include physical descriptions or pics, and propaganda. the “other” label can be used for “sexuality misalignment” (ie: oc is femme and you’re gay, vice versa or you aren’t into smashing but a specific thing you wanna do with them like perhaps hug or study them under a microscope idc).

putting De in here :) i don't talk about him enough i guess [art below by myself, stu/shroomlet and rosewoodroad!]

NAME- Delanaich

AGE- 21-31 [sylvari terms, feels like 39-49]

GENDER- Trans-masc [he/him]

CLASS- Weaver Elementalist

ORIENTATION- Pansexual

BUILD- Athletic, lightly toned

OCCUPATION- Herbalist and Erotic companion

PROS: a professional, he'll make sure you're treated right at all times :) very attentive in the bedroom will shower you in gifts CONS: very, very vain you'll have to deal with him having clients, he won't stop work for a relationship very unattentive outside of the bedroom and a bit flipppant will make you carry his shopping [at least half of it is probably for you?] tagging @shroomlet @the-desert-beast @avaeeart @norn-knot

Hope everyone had a fun Valentines Day! Here is the piece I did for the GW2 creatives discord Valentines exchange- Delanaich belongs to @sleidog !!🌹❤️

[sleidog]

any excuse to drop this [admittedly now very old art] I have De [trans man, he/him] and Venus [nonbinary, femme leaning, all pronouns] and, they both have plot with each other!

Delaianch's knowledge of his own past is foggy at best and he perhaps prefers it that way. When he awakened his appearance was quite different to how he looks now. He quickly became a mark for the nightmare court as an outlier sylvari from another unknown tree. At this point the nightmare court was in it's infancy, having only been established for a year or two at most. Focused on adding numbers to their ranks, any lone sylvari was easy prey. Delanaich happened to be staying with the soundless settlement in Caledon forest shortly after his awakening, thinking it to be where he belonged. At the time of his awakening, this settlement was small, only a few branched off secondborn maintaining the island they called home. When they were raided by the nightmare court, they were easily picked off and taken. De being one of the last, held out until Lionguard from the nearby fort had come to investigate the commotion. De is thankful to this day to the Lionguard troops who saved him and still sends them gifts. One odd resident of the fort who wasn't Lionguard, was Venus. An odd, flamboyant charr that happened to be passing through Caledon to get to a job and suffered an injury traversing the forest.

De and Venus became quick friends and De learnt of Venus' mesmer abilities, wondering if such a power could possibly get the nightmare court off his trail, knowing they would be coming back for him eventually. Venus alters Delanaich's appearance to be as he appears now, and in doing so De was taught about identities that don't fall within any set binary, liking this way of thinking, his style and appearance begins to lean more masculine. De himself ends up eventually in a comfortable space for himself where he enjoys both masculine and feminine things. De more recently considers himself to be a trans man, though went through a few different identities before that [mostly nonbinary masc and brief explorations of simply being a butch woman, however neither of these identities ultimately fit how he felt, and he landed on trans masculine, which is how he's identified for over 10 years [in terms of the game calendar] Venus on the other hand is an older travelling drag queen, she's very open with gender expression and dips a paw in most identities and takes a strange joy in watching strangers fumble before letting them know that any pronoun is fine for them. performance wise, she'll always be she/her, otherwise any is fine! depending on how much grooming time venus gets, their tail can also be floofed or simply tipped as well! Venus by the in game calendar is getting close to retiring from their drag career though, so you can probably see them in grothmar playing the friendly grandkitty giving out snacks in the next few years! [another fun thing about Venus is that she's assisted several questioning charr with her mesmer powers before they explore anything permenant, her warband name [formshaper] is very accurate. de and venus are still penpals to this day as well!

Hey GW2 peeps hit me up with your trans characters o/

Learn about my OCs! Post #5 De

De's turn!

[ Name ]  Delanaich/De

[ Species ] Sylvari

[ Height ] 5'6"

[ Age ] 21-31 [39-49]

[ Class ] Weaver Elementalist

[ Cycle ] Assumed dawn

[ Gender ] Trans masc, he/him

[ Status ] Single [on and off open relationship with Slei]

[ Orientation ] Pansexual 

Delanaich is incredibly vain, he highly values his appearance to others as well as himself and frequently fusses in front of his dresser. His vanity extends to those who assosiate with him as well, looking to dress or decorate them to match his own ideals with consent.

During his working hours if you're a client, De is attentive and extremely good at his particular brand of companionship. However, outside of work he can be a very grating individual to be around. De is particularly sheltered, rarely leaving his home for much as he has people to do that for him, leading him to be dismissive and passive aggressive when things aren't done for him.

 [ L i k e s  &  D i s l i k e s ] 

✔ Promptness ✔ Obedience ✔ Luxury ✖ Entitlement ✖ Bratty behavior ✖ Loss of control [TRIVIA]

When particularly stressed, his cat-tail reeds can 'pop' and turn fluffy.

Usually always has his weight shifted over onto one foot.

His choice of fashion is an almost perfect split between masculine and feminine.

De would often be the one paying for Slei's bail every time he would get arrested

De's home is located in Lion's arch, after Lion's arch was destroyed by Scarlet, he relocated to Divinity's Reach in Rurikton.

From another tree other than the Pale Tree, De had to learn most things for himself without the dream or Pale Tree's voice guiding him. De doesn't know which tree he came from, or if any other sylvari also came from the same place as him.

De favours a ritualists staff in long combat, though his primary weapons for one-on-one combat is a sword and dagger. His combination of choice being paired from the endless ocean set.

De is never unclothed during sessions with clients and always in a strictly dominant position while working.

De favours using air and water magic, though as a weaver he can blend all of them together to deadly affect.

i already know pretty firmly who i'm bringing to EU, but undecided for NA! is there anyone you'd like me to bring or you'd like an excuse to draw?

[sleidog]

a chib-De!

Delanaich is a sylvari elementalist, he's a fancy lad, very vain and loves living in excess, he favours air and water elements.

De used to be a herbalist, but now his herbalism business is more of a front for his other services, in which he's a professional dom/BDSM scene planner.

[sleidog]

🖊 could u tell about your sylvari from different mothers other than the pale tree?? that would be great!!

sure! My two lads are Taibhseil and Delanaich 🖊 Tai is an extremely old sylvari, dating back from the original tree that spawned the seeds for the pale tree [and presumably other trees] his tree was where the massive double helix is now in dragon's domain, and his tree mates have long since died, turned to mordrem, or regressed back into thorn stalkers Tai was spoken to directly by mordremoth the first time it stirred to spread it's influence with the seeds that eventually made the pale tree and the other unknown trees. His task originally was to caravan the seeds away from maguuma and into the rest of tyria with several others, but given none of his group had combat experience to deal with maguuma's threats, most of them died along the way, leaving Tai and 2 others left. Tai, deemed the weakest [a mesmer by his original profession] was sent to find help while his remaining tree mates sheltered in a cave [the cave where Ronan found the seeds!] Tai came across a human camp, tried to request help, and was mistaken for the hostile maguuma fauna, with humans being unfamiliar with sylvari at the time. Tai is injured, but manages to get away, using his mesmer powers to alter his appearance to one of the humans in the camp. he's later found collapsed by another human patrol and taken to their settlement. he continues to disguise himself as a human for a long time, meets a nice lady and settles down. then Bad Things™ happen, and Tai realises he has a knack for necromancy and works his way into The Order and, to avoid suspicion, he stages deaths for each of his human disguises as he realises he doesn't age like everyone else around him. He's staged 6 deaths and written himself into promotions each time to keep himself in charge of the order over his few centuries of existance! Tai now is a presumed secondborn by those around him, after he was found among the bodies recovered from the asuran experiments on the second born [Tai heard of the existance of others like him, but he was captured by patroling asura on his way to the grove when allowing his regular sylvari form to take over from his usual disguise. He's used for experiments and discarded, presumed dead, but as a reasonably powerful necromancer, he comes back as a lich, powerful but a blip on the radar compared to a lich like Joko for comparison. He had amnesia from the experimentation and settles into the assumption of being a secondborn among those in the grove. he later regains his title within the necromancy order as he regains his powers, about 10 years after his capture, but no one within the order knows he'd also been in charge for more than 200 years prior. he awakens again to his true nature when mordremoth reawakens and then causes problems on purpose durng HoT's storyline 🖊 Delaianch's knowledge of his own past is foggy at best and he perhaps prefers it that way. When he awakened his appearance was quite different to how he looks now. He quickly became a mark for the nightmare court as an outlier sylvari from another unknown tree. At this point the nightmare court was in it's infancy, having only been established for a year or two at most. Focused on adding numbers to their ranks, any lone sylvari was easy prey. Delanaich happened to be staying with the soundless settlement in Caledon forest shortly after his awakening, thinking it to be where he belonged. At the time of his awakening, this settlement was small, only a few branched off secondborn maintaining the island they called home. When they were raided by the nightmare court, they were easily picked off and taken. De being one of the last, held out until Lionguard from the nearby fort had come to investigate the commotion. De is thankful to this day to the Lionguard troops who saved him and still sends them gifts. One odd resident of the fort who wasn't Lionguard, was Venus. An odd, flamboyant charr that happened to be passing through Caledon to get to a job and suffered an injury traversing the forest.

De and Venus became quick friends and De learnt of Venus' mesmer abilities, wondering if such a power could possibly get the nightmare court off his trail, knowing they would be coming back for him eventually. Venus alters Delanaich's appearance to be as he appears now, and in doing so De was taught about identities that don't fall within any set binary, liking this way of thinking, his style and appearance begins to lean more masculine. De himself ends up eventually in a comfortable space for himself where he enjoys both masculine and feminine things, identifying as trans-masculine himself by human standards. De and Venus have stayed in contact since

🖊️🖊️ for anyone you'd like to talk about!

i'll drop some Teo and Slei trivia!

🖊️

The scar on Teo's cheek was inflicted by Slei during one of the only fits of anger he's ever experienced. [given the circumstance it was arguably deserved]

He has a strange almost telekinetic connection to his twin that's far more powerful than the regular connection most sylvari have.

Teo's armour and weapons are almost always procured through less than legal means or otherwise repurposed.

He's usually seen wearing a full set of pitfighter armour and wields whatever he can find as a weapon. Mainly, he is a hammer user, but he can also use an axe and sword.

The thorns on his head are a new development, thinking it makes him look 'bad ass'. The pinkish thorns on his head are that colour because he constantly scratches them off, the pink is new growth vs a darker red, which is old growth.

Teo absolutely loves garlic bread, it was the first thing he ate out of the pod and he hasn't had anything else to rival it yet.

🖊️

• Prior to Slei's promotion to Pact commander [and eventually Dragon's Watch commander] he was planned to be executed for a crime he [for once] didn't commit.

• Slei's choice to be involved in criminal activity was purely to spread funds and goods to those less fortunate, anyone aligning with his gang who hurt or robbed someone less fortunate was severely reprimanded and removed from his group.

• Slei's been arrested more than once and released on bail. One such time he was doing community service around winters day, he delivered a gift to a young orphan, who would go on to be the original Pact commander that Slei ends up replacing. He cherishes that gift to this day and has no knowledge that Slei gave it to him.

• Slei's primary weapons are from the Warden's set, though he can also be seen with Pact weaponry or his favorite bow, the Bright Inquisitor's longbow, a gift from Delanaich.

• Slei never intended to become the Commander of the Pact, he just found the old commander's resignation note.

• His pupils are small in relation to the rest of his eye, giving him a very intense stare despite his day-dreamy attitude.

• Slei's leaves on his body are ripped/torn in places from his rough background in his early years. He also has leaves on his chest and underarms that mimic body hair.

Just found your blog and would love to know more about your ocs. Could I ask 🍆 and 🎀 for your salads?

-

@massivechildshark was here >:3

welcome! i hope you enjoy your stay :>

🍆 Tea or Coffee or Hot Chocolate? Sweet or Spicy? Fruits or Vegetables?

of course i have to do Delanaich for the eggplant emoji since he's literally a walking eggplant lol De is a tea person, but not in the more traditional black tea sense. De used to be a herbalist and made his own blends for medicinal and every day use. his favorite actually leads into the second point! de makes a chili and cocoa nib infused tea that he loves to wake up in the morning with, clears the sinuses and makes him feel ready for the day! he also prefers fruits to veggies, specifically grapes, dates and various types of melon 🎀 Do they wear a specific accessory with a special meaning behind it? What is their usual fashion sense like? What do they wear when they want to be comfortable and what do they wear when they’re going to a fancy party? Or do they just not care?

Lets go with Slei again for this one! Slei has a call of the wild amulet that he always has on his person, unless he's intending to get wet/go swimming. It was a gift many years ago from Delanaich and the first of what turned out to be many, but for Slei it's the most important because it was the first time someone has given him something and not the other way around. Slei's fashion is simple, ranger leathers, practical clothes that leave his shoulders free to move, he has various wraps on his forearms to protect his firing arm as well. Sometimes, he'll wear a heavier coat with a feathery mantle when he's less on the front lines of combat as well. His comfort choice is going to be shirtless with just basic pants and boots, unless it's too cold to lose the shirt. his going out clothes are identical to his 'commander' clothes, just formal enough to pass. prior to becoming commander, he wouldn't care as much about his appearance to others, regardless of the event/function
