#gva shodd

Grand Vice Admiral Shodd now exists in the game!! Made him an engineer since he wields a pistol and shield and that seems most appropriate. Will be making him a mechanist and pretending his mech is one of those steam things since they're tied to the infinity ball story.

Some more shots of him on his skimmer and skiff. Fitting for an admiral.

I actually got his name in-game, well without the grand part since it would have been too long. It seems no one else has decided to go for it, though I'm sure some Shodds are out there and I didn't test if Admiral Shodd was taken.

Other screenshots of me exploring the homestead with alts:

Nico got his raptor mount stolen by Shodd

Two asuvari on their mounts hanging out.

Climbed up here to screenshot the ravenhawk but then the characters fused as well.

Me trying to figure out how to get them to stand closer together. It sure took some work..

These bushes are simply too tall for asura. They're drowning in them.

On the left: How I made my Shodd based on screenshots and quesstimating the height based on one of my min-height characters I posed next to him for.

On the right: Used a makeover kit to adjust small details some more. I think I went slightly above his height this time but it's pretty close this time.

What is he even doing..?

Spent a full day unlocking the homestead on both my accounts and then putting my characters in them and taking photos with them.

Here they all are:

Commander & His Dragon

The Evil Boyfriends

The Asuvari Squad

The Roommates (Who are finally actually roommates!!)

Detective & Spy (Their size difference is supposed to be somewhere in between the miniature form and normal form Kido..)

Skritt Asura Krewe

Cat & Gay Rats

Dragon Hunter Mercenaries

The Two Weirdos

The Pals (I really do need to develop their relationship at some point)

The Commander Polycule

Rat & His Demon

The Autism Plants

Warband Boyfriends

Plant Boyfriends

Mentor & Mentee

Been thinking about my Grand High Sovereign version of Rhixak again lately. I made him way back in 2018 based on the Infinity Ball personal story instance for asura.

I just made him for fun and didn't give him much further thought. But now I started thinking about him again.

It starts with meeting Shodd and the story goes similar to how it goes in the personal story part. Rhixak is a bit of a control freak which led to the invention of infinity ball in the first place, though he gave up in the end as in canon

With Shodd's encouragement, he continues, ignoring Zojja's warnings. In the end though no other version of him comes out, instead the two of them somehow succeed in making it predict the future.

The two's collaboration is of course full of homoeroticism, and the two only grow closer through working together. Though Shodd is only changing Rhixak for the worse. He purposefully manipulated Rhixak to go on with the project, and ends up getting carried away, encouraging even worse behaviour.

Using Rhixak's anxiety and worry for others, Shodd eventually leads the two of them to take over the world so they can protect it. They work together to take down the elder dragons, though Aurene's egg is lost, and she is never born in this reality. Though the two of them succeed in defeating the elder dragon threats, the dragonvoid appears unexpectedly.

Maybe it was beyond the infinity ball or maybe it ends up destroyed at some point, still working on the details but in the end the dragonvoid destroys Tyria.
