SYLVARI- PART II

[ Elyurias, Rinowa, Orvantes ]

Sylloqui remembers bygone mornings in the old fisherman's town.

Elias, whose eyes always looked ahead and beyond her when she spoke. The future will accommodate them. Her quips were always met with their certainty, for without certainty, we have nothing.

Tadhg, who is lightning in all fractals of meaning- so sudden and bright he could never be preserved (or saved), but miracles rarely strike the same place twice,

And Orvantes, a tower unbending set up against the light. When he finally crumbled from the inside, it was in a thousand fleeting colors.

Katjaa ponders the difference between male and female sylvari.

A VERY DESCRIPTIVE & DETAILED PROFILE OF YOUR CHARACTER. Repost with the information of your character, including headcanons, etc. If you fail to achieve some of the facts, add some other of your own! When you’re done, tag 15 other people to do the same!

hi hi! i got tagged by @mistbeing %^)!

here comes a bad lemon

“I will carve our names into the divine’s gaze- we will become permanent. Why? Because it is what we all deserve. What I deserve.”

NAME: Sylloqui- “The Architect”

AGE: 10 years old

SPECIES: Sylvari

GENDER: Cis Female

ORIENTATION: Lesbian

INTERESTS: Her work (things related to the unknown, scouting talent, etc.), puzzle-solving, party-going/barhopping, fashion, jazz (listening to it)

PROFESSION: Currently the lead dignitary of an independent group cartographing the Mists as it’s front. Behind sponsors eyes, Sylloqui influences trusted members towards locating the Hall of Heroes.

BODY TYPE: Lithe

EYES: Wine and gold

HAIR: A twine of willow and thick, swampy leaves tossed to the side over her shoulder. Their shape is (relatively) maintained by gold vines

SKIN: Pale gray

HEIGHT: 5’5- 5’7-8 with heels depending

WEIGHT: Around 130lbs

COMPANIONS:

Orvantes- Sylloqui’s highest confidante, and first to follow her cause. While diametric in personality to her, the two circled each other’s ethics- a perpetuated challenge that bolstered their work together. When Orvantes left the organization after a near-death experience in an unstable fractal, their relationship strained. Still disagreeing with his now safer pursuits in the Priory, she keeps a close eye on his career- after all, he was never meant to survive.

Ethiron- In another timeline, Sylloqui had almost reached the Hall of Heroes. In this timeline, Sylloqui had surrounded herself with brilliant minds- one of these was Ethiron. As a chronomancer who specialized in halting time, his input (and varying cryptic warnings) were invaluable. Destabilizing a rift into the Mists to achieve Sylloqui’s goals, the magic influence was too great- to prevent an inter-dimensional meltdown, Ethiron paid the price with his life. In another Tyria- our present- Sylloqui becomes aware of his unwilling sacrifice. She seeks Ethiron out, under the guise of amending past mistakes.

(Others)- Wisppe (Orvante’s adoptive daughter!), Pyrrha Tae (is aware of)

(Others (Not my OCs)- Elias Lonetravel, Tadgh

ANTAGONISTS:

Uberos The Faceless- Uberos is the gatekeeper. A protector of the Mists. The immortal beast that prevents Sylloqui’s goals from becoming reality. Tirelessly, Uberos chases those who try to cut the threads of time, or understand what shouldn’t be understood. In some way, Uberos has been perpetually responsible for Sylloqui’s failures in other timelines, and halts her progress in the now. She stands against the legend.

THE MISTS ITSELF- NATURE!!! THE WORST ANTAGONIST OF THEM ALL

(Others)- Ulzzo (bungled their work over unintentionally), uh, people that disagree with her

(Others (Not my OCs)- Hagan Skipshot, Nico

COLORS: Green, pink, gold, and teal

SMELLS: Perfume, oakmoss, and smoke.

FRUITS: Blackberries, Tangerines, prunes, and olives. Anything citrus or bitter.  

DRINKS: Wine, heavy coffee, specific herbal teas. Isn’t usually a fan of anything that doesn’t have a lot of flavor.

ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES? Yes / No / Occasionally

SMOKES? Yes / No / Occasionally

DRUGS? Yes / No / Occasionally

HISTORY:

Sylloqui had always wanted to be apart of something larger than herself. Without a wyld hunt, she fit herself into impossible spaces at a young age- and found an interest in The Six- the human gods. The Six were powerful, and changed the world- but never existed in sylvari’s time. Seeking every way imaginable through ambition to find where the gods had gone, she landed on the center of the Mists: The Hall of Heroes. Devoting herself in full to its pursuit, her trail began as finding proof. She gathered the like-minded under a waterfall of glory-seekers and promises.

Slowly, failed attempts and time diluted her purpose. Sylloqui began to take more and more risks- resources gone into breaking apart Tyria to find the Mist’s core. With rifts gone open and notoriety gained, Sylloqui’s work has gone into the underbellies of wealth for funding. Presently, she no longer wants to be apart of this Tyria at all, and glides through the Mists for days at a time, mapping what is always changing. What lied in the Hall of Heroes, now? Gods, or a magical graveyard? Though she will not admit it, she is growing desperate. Her last options have left her scrying into the past and future, into different outcomes. She will learn from them. She will see the glass at her feet and gilded wings bowing in applause.

She has to.

pros & cons of orvantes , thanks gamer

HEY COOL I KNOW THAT GUY

ORVANTES

Pros

- honestly, he just really, really wants you to be okay. lmao. hes a punishing sort of softness; the kind that wants you to take care of yourself and eat properly. he likes being useful, in that way that he can provide something for someone else. 

- at his most relaxed, orvantes is an open talker, and an easy smile. he gets a specific satisfaction from ease of conversation; and it’s more noticeable to the fact when he gets very attentive. that undivided look of admiration, tbh

- his job is literally discerning and cataloging dangerous artifacts from the mists or other-place, and he has a lot to share about these particular subjects (v: in addition, he’s also very well-read, and has a fondness for that friendliness in his own personal way

- will always set apart his schedule for people he cares about. he would probably be very happy with a consistent presence in his very monotonous, limited life

- basically just expect someone who is a natural worker, and likes to keep individuals safe and close. a simple man with a simple plan

The Pro But Maybe A Con Depending On How You Look

- orvantes is a two-deal package with his adopted small goblin child, wisppe. while wisppe is being looked after by someone else due to orvantes’ work, she is a big part of orvantes’ life. either congrats on the littlest paleontologist or the biggest 20 question terror

Cons

- orvantes is supremely pessimistic by nature. he doesn’t necessarily trust his surroundings, and this can extend to people- but without a doubt his fear of dying and extreme self-preservation can make him difficult to be around

- he despises things and people that do not have good hygiene. while most cases spur him into action to organize and clean, more often than not orvantes will outwardly complain it’s an off-putting thing for him. he’s a fussing sort, and sometimes his concerns can turn into very doting

- has no sense of time. whatsoever. hes refined to sharp details about his life, with the exception of dates :v) it isn’t synonymous with punctuality and his schedule, but orvantes has lost days to his work, and very rarely knows what day it actually is even when he is aware he has to be somewhere. lmao

- his personal conflicts can take precedence in bad ways. the fact that he’s alive is a miracle in of itself, but because he shouldn’t can be a bad reminder. while he’s confident to opulence on the psychical level, the fact that he’s been meant to die in every other timeline in the mists can elicit that- non-entity feeling. at his core, he is not the most inspired to greatness. An insecurity that can bleed into how distant he makes himself, and treats others.

shoves myself to post thimgs- some twit doodles i posted im still proud of

orvantes and their weapon, which is basically sunrise split in half :’v)

[deldrimor]

place your dreams where they’re meant to be

name your price to be at ease (x)

[primordus]

some doobles of orvantes’ redesign from twitter :u) 

the one on the bottom right is with wisppe, his adopted daughter! they nappin

[primordus]

Aydin and Orvantes. Why they problematic.

oh good LMAO. this became like. extensive faults but they are still problematic garbage in the end

Aydin

- the most competitive man who lived, actually. what time is it? esports

- can never commit to anything, lmao. while he’s decisive it’s usually to his immediate satisfactions and isn’t long-term

- hi my names aydin and welcome to jackass starring the vigil

- he also can’t like- sit still for at least five minutes - always has to be doing something or his attentions gone. probably isn’t paying attention at least a good chunk of the time (how would u know… hes always wearing glasses). would probably bounce his leg or tap his fingers until u punched him in the mouth

- an natural mess-maker in every single way. the epitome of being inconsiderate of spaces. not a problem, a talent. would also kick dirty boots up on a table!!! the horror

- can’t take anything seriously externally. closed off to a fault. difficult to talk to in general :u). would probably leave a conversation in the middle if it suited him. bye

- doesn’t understand the concept of personal belongings very well. ex. would take your food without asking, or probably take an item for the defined greater good of a stunt or his personal needs lmao

- “wildcard, bitches”

- STEALS ALL THE BLANKETS + WAKING UP EARLY AND BEING LOUD ABOUT IT

- has gotten injured for the sake of trying to look cool and would do it again. has also lied about being injured to make up a story for the same sake of being cool

- but would also jump off mount maelstrom for 10g. no question. no pain no gain

- laughs at ppl who have wyld hunts

Orvantes

- he’d honestly probably be that person that would rearrange your room or belongings into an organized manner without asking first. you know the one

- is a genuine doomsayer and pessimist. he could probably let you know the likelihood of household appliance fires or the destruction of tyrian-kind in the multiverse rather than hold a peaceable conversation

- wears all white and gold but is revolted by filth and dirt. love yourself

- can get so immersed in his work and himself that he can lose track of, literally everything, which can stretch on for a fair amount of days as a result

- personal security to such a high degree that he extends this to his surroundings and individuals he cares about but can start getting controlling. order, and safety are paramount things. orvantes knows what they are about

- takes sunrise with him, everywhere, everywhere.. it’s his safety net. some places are more convenient than others

- is an easy spook and screams in high alert when he has a frighten, but will also probably latch unto the closest object or person tbvh. the jumpiest jumping bean

- to above, an actual wuss

- eyebrows
