Magpie and her patron, The Lady of Fallen Snow. Another with a ramble under the cut ♡
The Lady of Fallen Snow is a tilted winter court fey noble, cold and cruel by nature of the role she plays as a titled court noble. Each titled fey of the courts Summer or Winter acts as their title demands, and the more powerful fey are able to see how this influences them, while those of less power don't see the bigger picture for what it is. Winter is bound to cruelty, to scarcity, to selfishness and cunning. Summer is bound to passion, to ferver, to merriment and to promises made with righteous intent. They represent warring sides, cyclical, unending. A narrative made literal, personifying the change of seasons as a battle that is doomed never to end.
The Lady of Fallen Snow, for whatever reason, seemed to have chosen to betray her nature to help Magpie in a time of need. She'd cloaked her intent with ominous promises, and took something deep and dear to Magpie to protect something even dearer to her. Early in the game, she'd told Magpie to deliver sorrows on her behalf, to take dear things from people during her travels. And later, when Magpie said she couldn't do it, she was instructed simply to "Do as she must."
Even still, Magpie never really stopped treating her as if she was a dear friend. Naive optimism, maybe, but she thought it was best. Beyond her pact, she'd offer little gifts of trinkets, twigs, rocks. Shiny little things to show her appreciation.
When they met face to face again for the first time since the sealing of their pact, The Lady of Fallen Snow stole a moment of time, quite literally freezing it just for a bit to step outside her title as it binds her, and greeted Magpie as herself. Kicking off her shoes, sitting in a frozen garden with her. Ever since then, it's been made clear that she's very deeply endeared to Magpie. This silly little all-too-optimistic goblin girl, doing anything and everything within her power to rewrite her own story. When Magpie asked what she wanted from her this time, she was told, "To cause chaos, silly."
So tl;dr, that's her spooky powerful fey mom. In the session that prompted this drawing, she showed up just to help soothe Magpie to sleep during a brief visit to the feywild. I care about them so much so bad
(I should note that The Lady of Fallen Snow is a character of my DM's making, I knew nothing about her going into the game. Did not know they'd take it in the direction of "Magpie is her daughter now." I am not complaining whatsoever.)

@dragonkingcreations Sir, this is EXACTLY what I was thinking about when I drew it. You are SO allowed to infodump and I will in fact join you if you let me.
We owe Johane SO much unofficial rotg lore that works just so DAMN well and gives SO much depth to the rotg world. It’s GREAT. Everyone go here right now and read some. The comics focus on Pitch too, and gives his character a lot of fucking marvelous background.

Augh, can't ask with my sideblog but its Sticks here!!
Questions for Ruby and Amon: Do you guys live on Angel Island and guard the Master Emerald with your dad already or are you free to go wherever? Amon has his sights on becoming the next guardian, what about Ruby? Just in general whats the situation regarding that: I'm curious lol.
Also i adore these guys sm Izzy theyre so much fun thank you for sharing them here <3
hello sticks! i appreciate the questions! and you're so sweet i'm glad you like them so much it makes me really happy 🥹🥹🥹
So firstly, Amon and Ruby live with their parents all together. They treasure family and plan to live tighter for a long while.
Amon is in training to be the next guardian yes, but he can also travel, Ruby too can travel. Amon loves adventure and treasure hunting, it’s his other calling to be honest. However, he doesn’t want to let Knuckles or the Echidna lineage down in his eyes, so he’s pulled in both directions.
Ruby adores the Master Emerald and all of its history, she takes it seriously when she studies up on it and the Echidna clan history. Sometimes Amon thinks of letting Ruby take his place as guardian-in-training, but he also knows that Ruby likes her freedom and doesn’t want to place that burden on her if she doesn’t really want it. He can be very self-sacrificing at times…
They haven’t communicated about this yet O-(-(
ty for this tho sticks if you ever have any more questions now or later feel free to ask them!
