Alright, 2022 me. What do we have here. We got:

- Spiky pink thing that learnt mesmerism instead of dealing with his self-esteem issues.

- A Mushroom. Who is a father. Has since developed about 5 new layers of guilt complex as a result of this.

- Guy who Ignores The Signs and just wants to work his minimum wage bartending job in peace, thanks.

Dralsin has clearly spent some time reflecting on his lifestyle after the trauma of soto, and has decided to take up a new career in drug and arms trafficking. You'll find him on the beaches of Bloodtide Coast.

leave him aloNEGH HE JUST wanted a DRINK

I like to think if dralsin and Feds are ever chilling and he makes the mistake of leaning over him for anything Feds just ((ACTIVATES))

[silvesi]

Only took Fedarys and Dralsin about 9 years, 2 deaths, an uncounted number of Vampire Beast Creature attacks and a whole lotta unhealthy coping mechanisms to settle down in a little house in Echovald. I am sure nothing bad will ever happen now because they're normal and love each other 👍

[silvesi]

Dralsin is not immune to the horrors of me trying to decide on colours, no matter how nice his tits are. Suffer my overlay layers, boy.

The tags are too long and I'm getting confused so its going HERE, apologies.

I have Larry in the role of commander, and the one who deals with Zhaitan despite the fact that Fedsy is with the pact, too. As of partway through HoT Fedsy takes over a fair bit due to being the champion of Aurene. Post HoT it's a solid split between the two of them, at least until the entire PoF /LWS4 issue with balthy and such. I still view Larry as the public figurehead - more the one dealing with arranging movements of troops, the one staying back to aid in defending civillians and such whilst Fedsy goes and idk, jumps in a volcano or something. Obviously he has to get used to doing a fair bit of this over time too, but. YEAH.

So I suppose

Larry: Public figurehead of the wars. make propaganda with THIS GUY

Fedsy: The one actually doing a lot of stuff (especially dodgy) behind the scenes until PoF thrusts him into the limelight.

He actually lets everyone think that it was Larry who killed mordremoth whereas it was actually him and Larry was going batshit insane during the fight lol

Mom said it's MY turn to make a poll.

[silvesi]

Taking a moment of silence to thank cookie run 4 getting me thru exams and giving me gay little outfits to put Fedarys in 🙏🙏

....and hurling the file of Fedsy (+1 Dralsin) sketches I've been using as exposure therapy to the concept. (Yes. To sketching. And maybe character consistency, as a treat)

[silvesi]

My dashboard over the last 24hrs seems to suggest I'm morally obliged to post the boyfriends in whore gear

[silvesi]

I must have said Larry isn't his actual name, right? That's an entire Sir Larold of Lichen

Will be putting these in my pinned post for more charas eventually, as inspiration strikes :>

[silvesi]

Good intentions, stupid ass guy.

Hello! This is Dralsin. I've mentioned him very briefly once before. He's initially a bartender in Lions Arch, honestly just minds his own business and can't be bothered with Zhaitan and such. Dating Fedsy, at least until Feds sends him straight to the mists during the campaign against Mordremoth. Sorry babe! It was nothing personal.

Jk they're still dating ish during PoF after he makes his way out of the mists during it its a MESS.

[silvesi]

Dralsin got lonely in the mists, acquired 6 snakes? Insists on maintaining a composed and edgy aura of not giving a shit, but the snakes are all named and he’s somehow managed to train them to eat any bugs that come near him. He lets people think this is a display of their (and his) viciousness, but actually just really doesn’t like bugs. 

[silvesi]

I finally gave Dralsin a proper outfit the other week but his ungrateful ass is suffering from tit envy 😔

The backpack was a gift from Feds, who thinks it's cute that he uses it.

WHAT DOES IT CONTAIN?

A brick. Two protein bars. Another scarf. Razor. Ham and Cheese Sandwich. A Single Brand crystal?? Cat treats. Cherry Flavoured Lucozade. Miscellaneous leaves Fedsy shoved in there.

[silvesi]

⬇️ TODAYS VICTIM ⬇️

A while ago I wrote [this post] about Dralsin. It is a brief introduction to his backstory. It is also completely wrong! I accidentally made the sylvari version of the astral ward before I met the astral ward.

Readmore for SOtO spoilers btw!!(Not including into the veil! (ﾟωﾟ)

SO, ATTEMPT 2:

Dralsin isn't from the pale tree, and doesn't remember anything from his earlier life. He lives in Lions Arch at the start of the personal story, which is where he meets, and eventually begins dating Fedarys. (Their relationship is an entire issue for another post)

I drank all the juice that SotO gave me and decided that he's from one of the fractals. How did he end up in this specific tyria? NO CLUE. Also tempted to make him limited to one singular timeline somehow.

SO

Fedsy kills him in HoT. We can ignore that issue for a moment, it's relevant only as it tells us: That Boy Is In The Mists, and he has a Difficult Time.

We now know the astral ward was watching a lot of what was going on. I like to think they're watching him like THATS OUR GUY!!! WHAT THE FUCK IS HE UP TO NOW!! He's breached containment...AGAIN? IS HE DEAD OR NOT? (゜_゜)

He learns how to function in the mists surprisingly quickly, I've not pinpointed specifics but I do have him as a revenant.

He ends up back in contact with the ward after a while. Of course, he thinks they're supreme arseholes. But ultimately, he's never felt like he belongs anywhere and really craves that family- so he does try so, so hard to fit in once he realises they're not gonna just try throw him back in a fractal (not even thought about the implications of THAT yet).

He reasons with himself that he's helping from behind the scenes, especially with Fedarys - him being more useful with the ward is a bit of a lie, but ultimately, spending time there does settle him down.

He eventually ends up back in Tyria during PoF. Unsure quite when, but- the ward is watching the commander, and although Dralsin has been trying to help- there has GOT to come a point where you're about to see ur ex who isn't really ur ex(???) Get WRECKED by a god and can't not do something.

Drals is sickeningly loyal and would without a doubt willingly sacrifice all he's learnt to go back to Tyria and punch Balthazar in the face, and I think this is exactly what he does.

I can't decide if I'd want him back just before Feds dies, or after- both are compelling.

This is why he's angry as shit during PoF even if he doesn't realise why. He starts to assume its the dragon champion stuff with Feds, almost goes down a bad path there. Not that Feds is being particularly normal either. They do not have a healthy relationship during this time!!! But Dralsin does not remember what he did!! That he went BACK for him!! They are fools!!!

... it also means that when the two of then reach SotO, Dralsin turning up clueless and the ward bitching about him would be very very funny. 2 me. I like to bully him, u might be able to tell 😔

Also if you read all of this holy shit hi, have the best screenshot I've ever taken of the boy
