#oc: helón

[lucius-the-sinful]

Helón almost exclusively covers his face (especially after he learns he is dragonborn) but in doing so covers all that beauty

[lucius-the-sinful]

haven't blogged about TES in a minute but all of my oc's have playlists

Helón/Teldryn Sero: On Your Horizon by Beta Radio

Helón/Mercer Frey: War by Chance Pena

Balthazar/Serana: Jaws by Sleep Token

Lysanthiir/Fennorian: Make Believe by Les Friction

I come back asking for more OC song pairings!

So I asked before about what singular song fits everyone's TES OCs the most. Now I'm asking what song fits their pairings the most. Could be OC/ OC or OC/Canon, oh OR OC & OC, OC & Canon, if you have non romantic/queerplatonic pairs. I'll start:

Lilliandra/Miraak (they get two!! their playlist is so long): Carve Your Name By Mother Mother | Your Wicked Company by Harley Poe

Lilliandra/Cinnara (this one is a little more difficult): Between My Teeth by Orla Garthland or Too Sweet Covered by Reinaeiry (original Hozier)

Lilliandra & Elikar: Family by Mother Mother (this also fits for the eventual found-family group of theirs)

Elikar & Serana: Side Quest Song by Madilyn Mei (QPR tho!)

And because I saw some people asking last time if it was okay, EVERYONE is welcome to join! I wanna see everybody's OCs and songs!!

8, 9, and 10 for the oc asks + oc of your choice!

Thank you for the ask!! ヾ(^▽^*)))

I'll answer for Étoile Ienith (bg3) (because I'm obsessed), Brynmor Mahariel (da:o) (because I'm developping him) and Meldiara Droroni (skyrim) (because she needs some attention every now and then).

8: Describe one of your OC’s bad habits.

Étoile

I've discussed with friends (and maybe here too) that Étoile is bad with remembering and honouring dates; birthdays, anniversaries, etc. And that's bad enough already, but I think it stems from an inability to conceptualize time or commit to longer courses of action generally. And I don't think they're magically cured of this under the weight of responsibility (with the Spawn and otherwise) post-canon. Someone else is mapping out settlement goals for these people, and keeping a calendar that reminds Étoile (and anyone else) what festivals, days of remembrance and other milestones pass and approach.

I contributed this concept about Étoile and Minthara in the timeline that they share with @/razrogue's Gan:

At some point when things are just "going well" and Étoile expects Minthara to be receptive to it, they get Minthara a rose and a box that contains four perfumes and two poisons or something of the like. Minthara, "What's this for?" Étoile, "For the first time we kissed, you can call it an anniversary." Minthara, "And you remembered that?" Étoile, "Not even remotely. But if you want to say it was today, I'll mark it on a calendar."

Brynmor

I've been picturing Brynmor reciting a tale or two of Zevran's recounted assassinations without thinking, even just to himself. He reassures Zevran about his motivations by declaring, do you think Dalish oral histories are innate? They're practised, rehearsed, repeated. Brynmor has a bad sense of "personal space" — despite having an understanding of privacy / secrecy / decorum. Even the histories are private, he's not going to recount Dalish ceremonies or private tales of woe in Denerim square. He just wants to remember.

Meldiara

Meldiara has a bad habit of trivializing the problems of others, but with the life of impoverished labour she led (where problems were life and death) before being heralded as the / a Dragonborn (where problems are on a cosmic scale), it can maybe be understood, even if it's still unforgivably rude. She also has a bad habit of stealing things, but does this count / matter after you've joined the Thieves' Guild. (I don't call her guildmaster because I'm thinking of asking @lucius-the-sinful if she and Farknir can be skulking around Helón Drevus' worldstate. I'd even rethink any or all of her love interests to do so!)

9: Your OC is having a nightmare. What is it?

Étoile

If Étoile had nightmares they would be about the moment they broke their oath and that it would twist the scene to be viewed from different angles, with lies about what really happened.

Brynmor

Nightmares that aren't Archdemon-led for Brynmor would vary.

Before discovering Tamlen's fate, they would be about Tamlen's shade trapping them in the ruined temple with the broken mirror.

After discovering Tamlen's fate, they would be about Tamlen dragging his broken body through the forests, trapped in his mind and watching the others at his side slowly turning into shrieks and being unable to perceive himself to know how quickly he was also changing.

The dread. The dread. The dread.

Nightmares of his parents and anything else Ashalle may have elected to keep secret. Were either or both of his parents cursed or abominations? How could the clan have kept that his father was the previous keeper from him? Were his origins more sinister with the crimes of a selfish elf?

Nightmares of nothingness in all directions, where movement was impossible or meaningless.

Meldiara

I think Meldiara would have nightmares where in a moment of passion or anger she injured (sometimes fatally) someone dear to her and was able to feel the weight of immeasurable regret.

10: You are conducting a ritual. What 5 items would you need to summon your OC?

Étoile

A vial of icewater (preferably from the Earthfast / Winterhold Mountains)

A holy symbol of Auril / Azura

A glass of Devil's Blood Whiskey

The Orphic Hammer (sorry, gotta work for it)

A blood sacrifice (up for interpretation)

Brynmor

A bowl of halla milk

A round knife for working leather

An open grave (graveyard not required)

A burnt symbol of Andraste's Church (priest robes, a written copy of the Chant, etc.)

A recitation of something that changed the storyteller's life

Meldiara

Something stolen (the more valuable the better)

A dragon's skull or soul

A tankard of ale (quality irrelevant)

Shoes worn for at least a year outside of Skyrim

A cloak made of raven feathers

[lucius-the-sinful]

Some Helón from my current save. i love this armor (from this mod) and all his lil accessories. this would definitely be the type of gear he wears during the main quest to try and keep his identity a secret. i doubt he even has a pseudonym, he just tells people to call him "dragonborn" or "the dragonborn". never takes off his mask.

bonus tally being scuncht about it

Hows it going? Got anything goin on?

ty for the ask! <3 I am doing well. My partner and I have the week off to relax (and go to Renaissance Faire on Saturday) and I've been playing Skyrim (I gave up on getting SKSE to work despite me installing it properly, but most of the mods that use SKSE are more or less quality of life so... whatever), spending time with family and friends, and of course drawing and writing.

I plan on finishing this today of Helon and posting the full later. Local man is very tired.

“You're having second thoughts?” The vampire asked.  Gale sat up slowly, his fingers feeling his neck. “Maybe… maybe not tonight.”  Astarion wiped the corner of his mouth. “What changed…?”  “I'm tired,” Gale hugged his knees, his tail curled around his ankles. “It's not you.”  Astarion’s face contorted. There was a moment of silence between them, then he sighed. “Do you… want to talk about it?” Gale never wanted to talk about it. He swallowed. “Maybe. You’ve told me a lot about Cazador. Maybe it's only fair.”  “Maybe.”

I have also been cooking the BG3 AU with my OC, Gale. Maybe when I'm done hyperfixating on TES I will cook more on this lol.

Gale sighed through his nose. “There is nothing for me to be sad about, Syl. I'm marrying the person I love, my brother and I are safe from our father, I have a business and reputation and money. I don't have Mitch, but I…”  She gently grabbed his wrists, lowering them and forcing him to look her in the eyes. “You still want him. And that's okay.”  Gale swallowed, his voice lowered to a shaky whisper. “But he doesn't want me. And that is somehow… I don't want to say worse, but it is. It feels worse.”

Some stuff I'm writing is for our campaign. Gale and Mitch are having Problems. Sylvanna thinks its all a little too dramatic.
