Pride Month Showcase - Ouiima
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A one time intern at Ulta Metamagicals in Brisban, Ouiima's life was forever changed when she was kidnapped by Nightmare Courtiers and held prisoner for the next four years. Enduring brutal torture and horrible conditions, she eventually escaped and spent a brief stint recovering with the Inquest, who found her, before leaving there as well and joining up with a new krewe (@commanderthalys), where she's slowly started recovering more of her old self. A talented asura gate technician, she enjoys tinkering and building small toys. Ouiima is demisexual!

Goodness I've had so many new guys this year! Had a big roster shift.
There's so many of them, I'm going to put them under a cut so as not to kill everyone's dashes. I've skipped some I don't have a lot of detail on yet.
Tumblr media
Signe Robbasdottir, a young norn who was injured by Svanir as a child whiel at the Snow Leopard shrine, and she has since dedicated her life to becoming a shaman of Snow Leopard... and absolutely wrecking the days of any Svanir who cross her path. Generally solemn, she has a dry wit and a very subtle sense of humor.
Tumblr media
Naqai! The granddaughter of Councilor Flax, she is a very rebellious young woman. Despite how much she loves her grandfather, she disapproves of how the council beds with the Inquest. Beyond that, she's energetic, bubbly, and perky... think a bit like Bubbles from Powerpuff Girls if she could strike you with lightning.
Tumblr media
Xeonna, an asura from Rata Novus who was knocked into a specimen containment tube during the city's last moments and was awakened by Taimi's research team when the city was rediscovered. Lost and bitter, she struggles to find her way in this modern world, though she has found some companionship in the gladium charr Umbra.
Tumblr media
Rosamund "Rosie" Marriner is the great-grandaughter of Cobiah Marriner himself, and one of my alternate commanders. The younger of four children and the only girl, she's bright, determined, and fiercely protective of the city her grandfather helped build. She has an extreme dislike for Ellen Kiel and what she's done with the city.
Tumblr media
Another of my alternate commanders, Rhenn is my Inquest golden boy. Genetically engineered by his father to be the "perfect asura," he actually remained with the Inquest through most of his tenure as commander, until just after Joko's death. He's cocky, headstrong, and stubborn, but deep down he's a lonely young man who desperately seeks approval.
Tumblr media
My girl Leyya! Absolute tragedy who's going through it in SotO. A childhood friend (and definitely something more throughout their lives) of Zojja's, she disappeared in HoT after getting possessed by a cursed dagger in her guilt over what happened. Though she used to be very friendly and a bit sly, she's much more closed off these days.
Tumblr media
My poor girl Ouiima was a gate tech intern working at Ulta Metamagical in Brisban. While there, working alone on a gate, she was grabbed and dragged off by a group of Nightmare Courtiers. Kept for four years, forced to fight other captives for food and even her own life, a once shy, gentle girl instead left angry, bitter, and violent. Probably not the best person to cross.
Tumblr media
Kippa is a big part of Rhenn's story. Born and raised in the since-destroyed asuran city that sat above the Thaumanova reactor, she's an elementalist with powerful healing abilities that had been at the Durmand Priory. Soft, gentle, and exceedingly kind, she comes off as very unasuran in many ways. She chooses to put her pain back into the world as warmth and care.
Tumblr media
My boy Rhenn's mysterious older sister who ran away right after he was born, when she was fifteen herself, Rhiia. Though she was aware her parents had "created" a younger sibling for her, she knew her days were numbered as a result. She hasn't been home since, but genuinely feels bad for leaving Rhenn in the horrific conditions he wound up growing up in.
Tumblr media
Praxxi is the last of my three alt commanders. Widowed when her spouse, who would have been commander, died at Claw Island, she chose to continue the mantle in their honor, and for the life of her teenage son. Lonely and lost, she has done her best to carry on, even as the responsibilities grow heavier with every new one that gets laid on her shoulders.
Tumblr media
Silas Dreadpyre is a former Flame Legionnaire and adherent to Efram's teachings, sent out into the world to get a feel for the world beyond their ranks. In doing this, he eventually met Ahlma, a member of the Order of Whispers, growing close to her to the point of a relationship. He always looks very serious and is generally very chill, but he has a good sense of humor and loves to cook.
Tumblr media
And speaking of Ahlma! A necromancer and cousin to one of my oldest characters, Qirri, she's a sassy, elegant, dramatic young woman that doesn't take any grief from anyone. One of the first people Silas got close to as he began to move outside the Flame Legion, she gladly took him under her proverbial wing... even if she initially had to break him of his outdated thoughts on her being trans.
Tumblr media
The legionnaire of the Fist warband, Butch Crushfist is rowdy, vicious, and loyal to a fault. As the leader of an all female warband (that includes only one male, Dinky), she's quite proud of her position. Having formerly been a gladium who proved herself by putting together her group from other outcasts. All members of the warband use their fists to fight, regardless of their actual class.
Tumblr media
And my very newest girl, for whom I'm using her art instead of a screenshot since she's off model, Pyxsi! With her mesmer construct prosthesis, as she was born without her left arm. The grandniece of Councilor Haia, she is as cunning, sly, and meticulous as her grandaunt... though that wasn't by accident. She recently pieced together that it was her aunt who arranged the deaths of her parents and grandparents in order to take her in.
Not that anyone ever needs a reason to post their characters, but I know some people get inside their head and squirrely so here you go, community prompt: Show off characters you have created this year! Go!

Ouiima, an Inquest Berserker, had once been an intern researcher working on asura gate technology at Ulta Metamagicals in the Brisban Wildlands.
Shortly before the start of the personal story, however, she had stepped away from the lab to collect some crystal shards, only to be set upon and kidnapped by a small group of Nightmare Courtiers scouting in the area.
For the next four years, Ouiima remained their captive. Forced to fight other captives for the amusement of her captors, with the ultimatum to die in the fight or live another day, and tormented and tortured through her "stay" with them, she struggled to survive and grow stronger, until during the events of HoT she managed to escape the warring factions as chaos overtook them.
Found later, injured and exhausted by an Inquest scout, it took nothing to convince her to join. Left mute from injuries received at the hands of her captors, she learned sign from her rescuer, and began to train her rough skills into something far more lethal.
Ouiima has since worked for the Inquest as a Liquidator. She's hurt and angry, extremely distrustful of most people outside other asura, and especially of sylvari.

New girl is at level 80! Spent all my wizard fun bucks on tomes since I had everything I wanted, and I still have a ton of tomes left over lmao.
Anyway her name is Ouiima, and she'll be in the same verse as Rhenn and @wall-legion's Iuno. She's an Inquest bruiser (to be Spellbreaker) who had been working at Rata Primus and snuck out during that whole fiasco.

Ouiima, Inquest Berserker
Four years of being held captive and being forced to fight other prisoners for the amusement of the Nightmare Court left Ouiima, who had been an intern gate technician with Ulta Metamagicals at the time of her capture, angry and hurt.
Rescued by an Inquest scout that found her after she managed to escape Joy's End during the events of Heart of Thorns, she immediately took to the organization that helped her and nursed her back to health, nurturing the hurt and pain and rage she felt at the pointless years of torture.
And, perhaps not surprisingly, she is perfectly willing to kill anyone who crosses her path. Perhaps with some help, she could finally grapple with her trauma...
..it's just a matter of getting close enough to her to even start.

Redoing Ouiima's story since I gave Rhenn an older sister that'll fill the role she was going to (details later). Anyway, had been an intern with Ulta Metamagicals right before the personal story, got kidnapped by some courtiers, escaped the factions sometime in HoT, joined the Inquest. I'll flesh this out in detail later, but some minor points:
Had previously been an intern researcher with Ulta Metamagicals in the Brisban Wildlands.
Generally just did her thing, enjoying her time there, etc. Mostly spent her time working on recalibrating the asura gates.
Got disappeared by the NMC not long before the personal story began. The krewe tried to find her. No dice.
At this time, she was about 19.
Eventually managed to escape the remaining factions around the time of HoT.
Immediately joined the Inquest when they found her alone and injured.
Ouiima is fully mute due to an injury sustained during her "stay" with the NMC, and generally just angry and hurt. Highly distrustful of most people, especially those of the plant variety.
She bites.

Got to thinking that most of Ouiima's time being held captive by the Nightmare Court was in Joy's End. SO close to people that could have helped her, and yet she stayed there for four years, only moved occasionally as necessary.

4 for all of the ones you mentioned (for those that already left: if what happened didn't happen, what ELSE would have made them leave?)
Inquest (or former Inquest) ask game 🐀
4. What would the final straw that would convince them to (attempt to) leave?
Vezz
For Vezz, if he somehow hadn't learned about all the child murder, it would've been learning that Zaige was using him for his research to facilitate the child murder. He actually had been with the Inquest for six years at that point anyway, and while he didn't agree with their morals and methods, he was able to work peacefully and be seen as worthwhile to be around.
But learning that all Zaige, his lover, ever wanted from him was that research? Would've shattered him. Seems inconsequential but he'd been so beaten down by people who didn't care for him his whole life already.
Rhiia
Tragically I don't know that she would've lived much past when she actually escaped. Rhiia started to see the writing on the wall, realizing how much contempt her parents Prikk and Milli had for her with how rebellious she was and how many questions she constantly asked about their real motives.
My guess is it would have been seeing them start to experiment on her baby brother when he was barely out of the incubation tube, if she stayed that long.
Praxxi
She likely would've left after her first sibling got killed by her parents. Vroqq and Miyya killed... several of their kids (or they got killed by someone else), and Praxxi left before the first deaths. Had she stayed long enough for that to start, she might have tried to kill her own parents herself.
Not that she doesn't want to kill them now, but she has a lot of more important things on her plate.
Ouiima
There really isn't any other way Ouiima COULD have left. She ran after only about a year in the Inquest because she realized that her pain and trauma were being manipulated, and she may not have been in a cage with the Nightmare Court anymore, but it was still a form of cage.
I guess the biggest difference is that she would've likely left much like she did when she finally got free of Joy's End: by killing everyone in her way.
Ersii
Girl is 100% loyal to the Inquest so it'd be super hard to get her to leave. Her whole goal in life? To resurrect Kudu as a clone of some kind. She hasn't done it yet but give her time. That being said, I think it'd be being told no that would get her to leave.
She'd just go and continue her highly unethical experiments elsewhere, though.
Rhenn
I actually have an alternate version of his departure already for verses where he's not commander and doesn't leave by killing his father in Fahranur!
It would take a few more years, but he'd realize by sneaking out that he was nothing more than another experiment his father was running. The end result would be him learning a little earlier what was really going on, and he'd destroy his father's genetic testing facility before killing him and getting the hell out. The thing that pushes him over is the same, but it's the timing and how he finds out that changes.
Iialli
I think in her case, it would've been returning to the Inquest after her time working with Zio, before the point they actually decided to leave their old lives. She's been so long away that it feels like a different organization, and I don't think she'd have been able to figure out how to fit back in. In the end, she would've gone back to Zio's bandit camp and stayed with him indefinitely.

My brain had been like "dancing queen" but this is equally hilarious.
Some outtake Ouiima shots that didn't make the cut.
