Happy Halloween from the Dragon Sanctuary cast!

I joked about Merno and Wyll being similar (kind one eyed demon hunters with a single duke dad who gave up their duke title and got personal beef with an evil lady every else finds hot despite the horrors she commits) so I wanted to dress everyone up as the BG3 characters for Halloween! I will never be drawing Kethric's armor again tho

Very Very Far Shot But...

I stumbled upon the concept of this today, and it, uh, struck me and my Dragalia-attuned (among other games) brain.

The word?

Eudaimonia (well, or 'eudaemonia' or even 'eudemonia'). As you might be able to surmise, it is Grecian.

Since it's a bit of a more complicated word in concept, here's snippets of both the good old Wikipedia and Encyclopaedia Britannica regarding it:

Closely following this is the more modern concept of eudaemonism, which is the school of thought that evaluates the worthiness of actions based on their capacity to produce happiness.

But wait, there's more!

There also was a concept of eudaimonias as actual spirits, a sort of guardian angel figure.

And, well. This all sounds vaguely familiar to Euden. He himself in Dragalia lore is something of a symbol of dragalia itself made manifest, creating the ultimate har-har in the game's title after the last chapter. Replace "Euden's dead" everytime you see "Dragalia Lost" and it's darkly amusing. What do you mean, in the game "Euden's dead, in the chapter "Euden's dead" Euden dies? Impossible!- But just as he reforms bridges between people and dragons, so too is Euden very concerned and involved with the flourishing of humanity in all stripes. As leader to New Alberia, he also serves something as a guiding figure for the people who chose to follow him, on both a literal 'big-picture, what do we even do' scale as well as a more personal one, as he pays attention to most every individual he meets.

There's also this snippet regarding the actual 'figure' of the eudaimon:

With dragons in Dragalia being essentially nature personified, 'mother nature bites back' champions of higher, more intangible powers and occasionally all but killable gods themselves with their might, it forms a neat sort of comparison with Euden, the intermediary between them and the 'lesser races' of humanity. Euden himself is already something of an intermediary between the divine and mortal, with the whole Xenos-Morsayati-Nedrick trifecta involved in his creation even if he is himself largely the same as most other human.

Of course, with the whole notion of Greek deified heroes entering the mix and their many ends in mythos, it adds another potential tie in, since, yeah. He dead (after performing supernatural feats).

Dragalia also possibly drew on Greek/Roman inspiration for others in his family so it might not be completely impossible. There's Leonidas, who was most notably a king of Sparta and has a few other little tidbits to him that make me wonder if they drew on him for inspiration, and Marcus Aurelius, who was noted as part of the "Last of the Five Good Emperors" in Ancient Rome, a noted militaristic society like Alberia's. That almost reminds me of Aurelius' status in the main campaign, where he ruled as King for very long and further helped Alberia prosper before it all started going downhill.

So...yeah. Euden as a possible literal manifestation of a eudaemon, eudaemonia and/or eudaemonist himself, anyone?

Driver number: #13, was #14 in early karting days

Drives for: Hitech Grand Prix F2 team along with Paul Aron under the Spanish Flag.

MORE LOADING...

Born into the Torres family of Spain on December 14 of 2005, ILIAN ALONSO was introduced into racing at an early age. Her birth parents, ALEJANDRO TORRES and ROSA GOMEZ had deep connections in the street racing scene of Barcelona. Due to this, Ilian was very interested in being a racing driver, much like her uncle, FERNANDO ALONSO. Her parents decided to put her into the local karting school, where her interest developed. At this time, the Torres's were struggling financially and pulled Ilian out of the sport. Her aunt and uncle, Y/N ALONSO and FERNANDO ALONSO, found out about her interest in the sport, and convinced her parents to let them fund her karting. Her parents pushed Ilian to be the best driver possible and expected little to no mistakes because of the fact that they were not paying for her. This grew into neglect and abusive relations between the child and her parents. Y/n, her aunt, caught wind of this behavior and fought for custody rights, ultimately adopting Ilian in the end. The young driver changed her last name to Alonso, dropping her connect to the Torres’s as soon as the adoption was approved. Ilian considers Y/n and Fernando her parents, but she calls them Tia and Tio, as she was 12 when she was adopted and found it weird to change so late in her life.

ILIAN’S PERSONALITY

Ilian is a Enneagram Type Seven - The Enthusiast or in simpler terms, a sunshine type character. She is very happy and bubbly. When Ilian is feeling sad, angry, etc, it takes a while for her to get back to her usual self.

Ilian holds herself to very high standards, which was intergraded by her birth parents. Ilian does not process failure well, and often leads to angry outbursts. Ili is not good at regulating these outbursts and feels extremely embarrassed by them.

MORE LOADING…

Ilian speaks fluent Spanish and English, often switching up her dialect. She is most comfortable with Spanish, as she grew up in Spain.

She was originally supposed to be named ‘Ina’ by her parents, but Y/n convinced her younger brother to consider the name ‘Ilian’

Her favorite color is dark blue and usually has dark blue nails. Ilian does not like the leave her nails bare

Ilian’s cousin, Francesca Alonso- Y/n Alonso and Fernando Alonso’s eldest daughter, is her best friend. She does not consider anyone else to be as close as she is with Fran.
