heget’s Silmarillion Sigil Set

your daily dose, (51/?)

Disclaimer: Here is a blend of Original Tolkien creations (aka my best efforts at recreating the author’s drawing), modifications on the original, and designs completely from cloth.

Please credit if use.

In order:

Glorfindel, Ecthelion, Duilin

HERE is the master-list.

Notes:

Happy Holidays- bet y'all thought you'd never see a new one of these posts. Well, as I'm slowly reposting all the sigils on Bluesky, I found the few finished Lords of Gondolin before the program I used completely died on me and I refused to buy the new version.

So the Lords of Gondolin have sigils, conventional ones, described in "The Fall of Gondolin" which is in The Book of Lost Tales II and is the earliest piece of the legendarium, written in 1916 and amended in 1920. So oldest of old draft that is still canon. But that means that what's described is not the wacky radial symmetry in lozenges that I mentally label the Eldar-mon. So:

Glorfindel was Lord of the House of the Golden Flower, and he personally wore a green mantle embroidered with golden celandines (which those flowers aren't a perfect match for). To be fair, the sigil started off as something else, but afterwards I realized that yellow flowers on green, even if of muted tones, would not read to a Tolkien fan as anything but a sigil for Glorfindel. Now, we can be cheeky and say this is the sigil for Glorfindel of Rivendell, and thus any inaccuracies are either a subtle nod to there being two Glorfindels- or the reembodied Lord of the Golden Flower is trying to hide his identity.

Ecthelion was Lord of the House of the Fountain, who delighted in silver and diamonds. So, pale grays and silvers and stars and a design that invokes the multifaceted cuts of gems. Also the suggestion of pipes, be it the flutes that they played into battle or those of more mundane plumbing.

Duilin was Lord of Hosue of the Swallow, his troops famous for their archery, hence an arrowhead as sigil, feathered helmets, and their colors were blue, white, purple, and black.

keanu and eren !

BASICALLY the lore is eren (surya's son and lyra and jj's grandson) joins the military at 18 when his best friend keanu (base made by @rhdweauni0 btw) joins and when they're stationed in japan keanu starts a totally not allowed situationship with a girl named kiyoko and then knocks her up, doens't know, LEAVES with eren and then DIESS ☹☹ anyway after eren leaves the military at 25 hes kind of a wreck but then a year later hegets jumped with custody of keanu's random ass son bc his mom died??? and so he and taiga move in with his sister serena and they are the epitome of big brooding angsty and little kid breathign live back into him

Found out how to convert some stuff to use in my saves. It's all far from perfect, but I hope someone else finds this stuff useful. Everything should be BGC, but let me know if there's any issues.

Bór family tree

Compiling the names from the five stories, I have a shockingly complete family tree for these mortals, more-so than I remembered.

Bór is married to Borte.

Borte has a brother, Ban. His son Blodren is the one sent to warn about Ulfang's pending betrayal, gets captured, brainwashed. (Canon character from a Narn draft; I'm just adding the Bór details)

Bór and Borte has four children that survive to adulthood and all die in the Nirnaeth Arnoediad: Borlad, Borlach, Borthand, and an unnamed daughter.

Daughter has an infant son, Boaz.

Borlad's wife is Asúni; she ranks highest as wife of eldest son.

Borlach's wife is Altanë, they had an infant son Ellach.

Borthand's wife is Rhosgeth, has daughter Marti - eldest surviving Bór grandchild.

They sue the Fëanorians to give them refuge.

Of the many freed servants and slaves post-Nirnaeth that stayed with Borte, the one that will live longest is a woman named Ullad. The eldest surviving male is a boy named Roas; Borte adopts him.

Marti marries Roas and has two children - a son Ruga and daughter Kreka.

Ruga leaves for Dór-lomin, hiding his heritage and blending in among the other Easterlings and running a secret freedom trail for slaves and others to escape.

Kreka marries Ernath and has Bledda. She also assists in the daily menial tasks of raising Elros and Elrond for Maglor during the peredhil's captivity.

When Kreka renounces the Fëanorians and takes her people to Balar, Bledda's sweetheart, Rúth, comes with. Rúth's father was an outlaw.

Bledda and Rúth work as scouts and interpreters for a Vanyar advanced platoon working to free Dór-lomin. Their daughter, Bortë, is raised among these Vanyar soldiers and speaks Quendya as well as she does Sindarin, Edain, and Easterling languages, making her as much of a polyglot as Eärendil. And deeply devoted to the Valar. Speaking of which, Bledda reunites with his childhood acquaintance Elros and Elrond.

To Elrond's annoyance, Elros is ridiculously smitten with Bortë. Bad poetry is used to court.

Elros marries Bortë; she becomes first queen of Númenor. Which is fitting because a sizeable minority of Edain settlers of Númenor are also of mixed Easterling ancestry.

They have four children: Vardamir, Tindómiel, Manwendil, and Atanalcar.

Though Ra is one of the older gods, his birth equal to that of time and linear thinking. Equal only to cronos who has become a concept once again in some aspect, Ra is not one to actually do action until the situation becomes urgent for himself. For he will be the end of the world, and its new genesis no matter how many cycles it goes through.

Still-

"An alien being, has been trying to circle the sun, my sun for a moon cycle. Humanity is not ready for their intervention, hence I am trying to burn them away."

"Sound waves, radio, signals. All of it are being blocked by me. Humanity...needs improvement before they can even reach the stars."\

humanity is still in its disco era.

Hermes is doing his best to keep his expression neutral—really, all he’d been asked to do was see what the sun god was doing, not to intervene in any way (and neither would he wish to). Whatever this is that’s going on...well. It isn’t for him to get involved with, not any more than was necessary.

“...merely observation, my lord.” Tone careful, Hermes bows his head to the other, both in apology and in greeting. “Some of the other gods were, ah, curious about why your activity had spiked, just some moments ago, and asked me to be nosy in their stead. I’ll ask your forgiveness for intruding.”

Though he is also quite curious...he’d rather just not inquire too much.

1500 Followers!!

Wow. I’m so amazed that I have reached this milestone given the ups and downs of content and engagement over the last little while. I have just recently had surgery and had sight restored!!! to my right eye and I wanted to do more for this gift, but unfortunately had some complications and setbacks but I hope you all enjoy nonetheless. Thank you all for your support!

First up recolours of @deedee-sims Chemise a’la Reine in the historical palette. Textures by andavri, heget, deedee. TF-EF.

Download

Secondly, three buy objects (plenty more in my to do folder but alas). All in pirate woods.

Vitasim’s library steps (an endtable) with the books removed. Replaces the original mesh.

DH’s Victorian sidetable. I had done this one before in heavy woods, but I don’t use them much anymore.

Tethys’ 4t2 Fridge Wood.

Download

And lastly, what started as a small request from @victoriansimmer “Please just recolour this one particular fireplace”... I spiral easily. Have SIXTEEN different fireplaces that I am calling Project Great Fire(place). I think I’m funny. All aside from the OLS fireplace come in pirate woods, with details in old brass or pewter. The OLS fireplace comes in yeti metals.

Decat presents... The Book Texture Project!

This happened because I got annoyed that some of my add-on bookcases didn't pick recolours of the maxis books. So I fixed that.

The following Bookcases now have their books repo’d to the Craftmeister Booknook:

Michelle’s ANES bookcase

CTNutmegger’s Craftmeister and Booknook short bookcases

 HugeLunatic’s Vroom bookcase

Moune’s corner Dahlen bookcase

MSBarrow’s Hotel and Thackaray bookcases

SA99’s Country Bookcases

Windkeeper’s Aquatic and Fantasy bookcases

All of Mutske's base game working books

Some of these were never updated for FT/AL, so I’ve done that too.

These Textures have been added to the Craftmeister Books:

Adele's Amelia Bookcase

Michelle’s Bookcase of Education

Nabila’s textures

Grungy books from Castaway Stories

4 of my own recolours: Harry Potter, Victorian, Medieval, Kids books, and one using the in-game book covers from the reference book and novels.

These Textures have been added to the Bibliofile Books:

Nabila’s textures

Maxis Craftmeister Books, 2 versions

Medieval Books

The in-game book covers from the reference book and novels

 I also took one of favourite bookcases, Avenida’s book table and updated it for FT/AL as well. I’ve included recolours of the table by alleluia. (alleluia also included Nabila’s textures, that’s where I found those.)

Download everything here!

Also, here are some other book textures I found:

Dahlen/Craftmeister: Heget, Leefish, Lotte

Bibliofile/Cinderblock: Plasticbox, Lotte

Finally, there some some CEP Extras here and here that will repository other maxis bookcases to the Craftmeister books.

Enjoy the books!
