#rath rambles

[thatrandomartistjavi]

Do you think the green ham came from a Rath

[troubled-bog-witch]

slight outfit redesigns + the thought that Kid would never put them in outfits that don't match on purpose

[ricardian-werewolf]

I need to put Kaz and Gereon Rath in the same room for my mental health, so they can just both radiate such sheer emotional stagnation about the women they love, while Inej and Charlotte go off dancing at the Moka Efti or roaming the roofs of Berlin (Inej's treat). (I'm also enraged that netflix is taking Babylon Berlin off its catalogue).

[xbonecandyx]

I have a question about the nasty bastard. (Pls delete this if the question is no bueno)

Would Rath enjoy trying to feed off of someone who is sex repulsed? (Especially if it leads to a freeze reaction or disassociation) Or would they just get bored of the person being a limp fish and stop trying to engage?

I think they might feed off the fear the first time or two, but after that they would get a bit bored- though that's pretty true of almost any victim they gain an interest in

[yeetspace-s-omnitrix]

It's Thrashire

A fusion of Alien X & Rath

Basically just imagine the whole bit of the Cheshire cat but then take that to the most battle ready offensive level.

Being capable of literally just tearing through reality through sheer force of anger, though not the same level of incoherent belligerence as Rath, much more of an aloof, joyfully tricksterish nature

[bellalaterminated]

I know I'm old because I hate smutty books nowadays.

Give me plot-driven, character development-centered novels where the action is shown instead of just being told, or I'm out of here.

[ricardian-werewolf]

My boy! *squishes*

Blorbo Repository (Under Construction)

Aka “I have too many ocs and not enough time, campaigns or stories to put them in”

This is basically just a masterlist of all my semi-developed or developed ocs either for use in DND or wips i have no concept of yet. Arranged by category. Links to small character intros will come eventually, if you want to know more about the oc.

[Note: Some of these OCs are for half-thought or half-drafted wips, subject to be changed in the future]

In DND, he's a rogue-turned-ranger who found a portal to another world and decided to use it to run away from his problems.

28. Gay. Trans man. War hero in Escia who was betrayed and captured, though he eventually managed to escape. Suffers from PTSD as a result. Met Rath while on bed rest after his escape. Though he now runs a deli/is a mercenary, he misses the glory days of his life as a warrior. A werewolf but, like, a golden retriever kind. Naturally charming and a good strategist. Is going to beat you with the power of friendship and his big fucking axe. Wears an obnoxious red coat like Edward does in FMA. Enjoys riling Rath up. Falls first.

5. Glitch (An Anomaly)

Late teens. Questioning queer baby. Cis man. Originally a side-character who is now my character in a campaign I'm in, Glitch is someone who didn't die when they should've. Protective of his sister. In over his head with some powerful people he made deals with. I want to write a story about him but don't really know what kind. In DND, he died, came back to life, died again, temporarily became a mindflayer and only just got that part fixed. Someone get this man a father figure.

[deathandthesoul]

Rath was my favorite Dragon Knights character when I was growing up and looking back on it I think that says something about me now LMAO

[flippedorbit]

[someone-took-meep]

Man, I've really gotta get more liberal with my reblogs. Like, I wanna share it all, but I also want to add stuff into it.

[possible-eldritch-horror]

My stupid Ben 10 au from back when I rewatched it has been in my head all morning so now I'm tempted to go back to it

[chatonmagique]

I'm curious about different short haircuts but I'm scared everything will look bad on me. Maybe one day when I'm sick of growing it out.

Can we have a few facts about Rath? Because GODDAMN THEY'RE FINE-

ABSOLUTELY yes hehehe, I'm glad you're interested in them!!!!

Rath is an incubus, which means they get their energy from domming during sex, and they enjoy taking this to extremes when they get the chance. I haven't had the chance to draw it yet, but they do have two scars on their back where they used to have wings, but their wings were removed when they were ejected from their place in Hell due to crimes against someone that was supposed to be protected.

Nowadays they live their life on Earth! They don't really NEED human food to live, but they enjoy the taste and the experience of eating, so they eat quite a bit anyways.

They're able to choose and interchange their parts downstairs as easily as the rest of their gender presentation, but their true form has a tentacle-y sort of situation goin, with both sets of parts.

Der Pass (2018-2023)

Babylon Berlin (2017-2025)

I've been watching these 2 German-speaking series in a row and I'm obsessed with the lead characters and their chemistry and these series are so underrated, especially Pagan Peak (Der Pass). Somebody pls watch it, I need someone to ramble about how I love my cutie little pies and how I fall for them before they fall for each other

Ellie Stocker x Gedeon Winter

Charlotte Ritter x Gereon Rath

the similarities between the scenes
