Big thank you to @cringeyvanillamilk for this awesome artwork for Rosamund! Here's our little Petal in the Academy uniform vs her Time-Skip outfit.

caspar and rosamund

Oh, goodie goodie goodie!

The dust was finally settled. The fires finally put out. A large portion of the monastery was completely demolished. The homes of those that called the village in front of the church home were covered in damage. Those that weren't on guard were trying to find those they got separated from Every single one of their clerics were tending to their wounded.

They had taken Garreg Mach.

And it only cost them their beloved Professor.

Caspar, once his wounds had been healed and he was cleared for duty, began to make his way towards the dining hall. All the children were currently being healed, fed, and reunited with parents.

And Rosamund was leading the operation. Currently serving soup to all the children.

With a big smile, Caspar hurried over to her.

"Hey, Rosa!" he called out.

Rosamund looked up, and her smile looked about to break free from her. "Caspar!" She had another student take over serving for a moment so she could meet him, throwing her arms around him tightly. "You're okay!"

Caspar hugged her back. "Yup! Was given the good to go." He pulled back, and noticed the bags under her eyes. "Hey, you alright? You look like hell."

"I feel it, but I'll be fine once the kids are all fed. Come on, we could use a hand."

Caspar didn't argue, and followed her to the kitchens. She immediately had him cutting and squeezing fruits to make juice. "How're your brothers doing?"

"Hubert left after he made sure Lady Edelgard and the others were safe," she explained. "He's going to bring someone here to help with the war effort. Tancred's currently in bed asleep. The stress left him feverish. Thea's with him right now." Her smile dimmed. "I'm...sorry. For abandoning you during the fight."

Caspar stared at her. "Huh? When did you abandon me?"

"Around the time Cyril retreated." She started cutting apples into slices, platting them on a large platter. "The Archbishop transformed again, and...I ran to find Tancred."

Oh, yeah. I remember, he thought. Tancred had snuck onto the battlefield. He remembered Rigel barking in a panic as he took out a soldier from the Knights.

Rosamund took a deep breath. Her eyes looked red from exhaustion and worry. "I did what I had to do to survive and protect my little brother. I didn't want to leave you. But...he's just a little boy..."

Caspar set down his utensils and put an arm around her shoulders. "Hey. We survived, right? That's what matters. And I got this cool scar out of it." He pat the spot on his chest where the scar was hidden under his shirt. "You two didn't get hurt, right?"

She nodded. "Yeah, but-"

"Nope."

"But-"

"Lalalalalala, not hearing it!" He rocked side to side, nearly knocking them both to the floor. "Lalalalalala! I can't hear you! Lalalalala!"

Rosamund set down her knife, and turned to smack his arm, laughing. "You jerk."

Caspar smacked her back, only to earn another in return. "Hey!"

"Hey yourself!" Rosamund sighed, leaning into his side. "Thanks....and I'm sorry."

"Hey, don't worry about it." He smiled. "You can just help me with training later to make up for it. Sound like a deal?"

"Deal."

Master of the Hounds, Hidden Treasure, and Most Loyal of Canines.

"Rosamund may seem standoffish at first, but once she allows you near her dogs peacefully, you'll find she is incredibly protective and doting, and as loyal a friend as any. Her skills with animals is only rivaled by her skills at the bow. Do not get between her and the hunt. And do not attempt to belittle a Vestra or a Hresvelg in her presence. When she's not with her hounds, she can often be found with her brothers, or studying the cultures of the lands surrounding the Empire."

"Despite his age, Tancred is rather wise and cunning, with innate magic ability that exceeds even some with a Major crest, despite lacking one himself. However, his body cannot handle all that power, and so his weak constitution frequently prevents him from interacting with others. His main form of communication is the Imperial dialect of Adrestian Sign Language. Do not underestimate him. He's always watching. When he's not bedridden, he's often sitting in the sun, playing the tin whistle his brother gave him for his fifth birthday."

"Do not fear Rigel. He is only a danger to others at the command of his Master. So long as you are not an enemy, you will not become his new favorite toy. He is usually found by the side of his Master, and never leaves her side during a hunt. If you want to make fast friends with him, some offal of Aegir Grouse tends to be his favorite."

Rosamund and Tancred von Vestra, and loyal puppy Rigel!

Thanks again @nessiemccormick for the amazing art.

Working on finishing the Tancred Pre-Time Skip paralogue. I have some other supports finished for Rosamund and am working on some for Medee as well.

[malsfefanfics]

🛸- they have been abducted by aliens. What will they do?

🐌- they are gifted a snail. What do they do with it?

Vestras and Davi :3

🛸- they have been abducted by aliens. What will they do?

Davi and Rosamund would both be analyzing the situation and will adapt accordingly. Most likely, if they see an opening to make friends, they'll try.

Medee is too busy constantly breeching containment and exploring the ship, so they end up putting her back before she messes with anything. She took souvenirs.

Tancred is trying to escape before his family comes after the aliens because he just KNOWS Hubert is pissed right about now and if those aliens want to live to see next lightyear-

🐌- they are gifted a snail. What do they do with it?

Tancred gently hands it back. He's not much for snails. Doesn't like the slime very much.

Depending on the snail, however, Medee, Rosamund, and Davi would:

Put it back in its natural habitat if possible

If endangered, create a terrarium for it

If it's a common delicacy, then they'll eat it.

[malsfefanfics]

🌌

Oooh, this will be a good one. Let's see.

🌌 If your OC has a nightmare, what’s it most likely about?

Tancred's still young, so monsters are a common one. The monsters destroying everyone he loves is the most common. The monster usually looks like his father in some way, shape, or form.

Rosamund's is usually of being left behind or being seen as useless. Her loved ones perishing, and their ghosts mocking her on her failings (particularly her lack of magic).

Medee relives memories in her nightmares. Losing her family. In non-Crimson Flower routes, the news of losing Hubert. She's someone very locked into her past.

Davi, meanwhile, has three consistent nightmares he's haunted by. The first is the one is the memories of the Tragedy of Duscur. The second being a nightmare of losing his current family because of someone discovering his Crest. And the third, and probably most terrifying for him, is a possible good ending where the discovery of his Crest doesn't end in doom and gloom, but instead results in an isolated existence above everyone around him. Something he already experiences somewhat now as a leader of his current home, but on the scale of that of a King.

[malsfefanfics]

🤝📚🥪🔪

Alrighty! Let's do this!

🤝 Does your OC have someone they want at their side when they are scared? Who?

For Tancred, when he's scared, he wants only his family by his side at first. It's not until he meets the others at Garreg Mach that this expands to people like Ferdinand, Dorothea, Mercedes, and Manuela. Almost anyone from the class of 1180, really.

Rosamund doesn't really want people by her side when scared. She doesn't like people seeing her afraid. But I imagine that, aside from Hubert, she would trust Petra, Caspar, Ferdinand, Felix, and Bernadetta to see her scared. So she might seek them out, along with her brother.

Medee wants her siblings. But that can never be.

Before the tragedy, Davi would reach out for his brother Rui or grandfather when he's afraid. These days, he would reach out to Graham, who kind of took Rui's place as that pillar of strength for him. If you manage to recruit him, then that person would become the Professor.

📚 Your OC has to improvise a 10 minute lecture about a topic of their choosing. What do they chose?

Davi would immediately jump to a Duscur History lesson, focusing on the mining village he came from, along with the God of War and God of Earth from Duscur's pantheon, as those two were particularly of focus in their village.

Tancred would do a small lecture on how certain spells, while combative, can be adapted to be used in more creative ways with a little skill.

Medee will either be giving lectures on potions or making you write essays on why every ruling government on the continent sucks in a "This is why its Ronald Reagan's fault" way and it's a 50/50 chance on which you'll get.

Rosamund basically is a survivalist course. So many of these noble kids wouldn't last 10 days away from home with nothing but a knife and a sewing kit, so she's going to make sure they will.

🥪 On a scale from ‘burns water’ to '5 course menu’ how well can your OC cook?

Tancred is still a kid, but I like to imagine he eventually learns how to cook enough to pack a picnic lunch.

Medee could easily do a five-course meal. She just prefers to do smaller meals because of how much time she takes up in her labs and caring for Tancred.

Rosamund is much the same, but she's more skilled at cooking in the woods than in a kitchen. Probably the best cook out of the Vestra siblings. Would be the one in modern AUs to storm into your apartment, reprimand you for only stock piling instant ramen and beer, and then set to work making a proper dinner with the groceries she brought.

Davi is just passable. He is skilled if it's Duscur cuisine and could easily cook a fantastic feast if you gave him a kitchen, but anything you'd find at Garreg Mach? It's rather unseasoned and bland. And in the case of noodles, a little overcooked. But that's only because he hasn't learned it yet. Give him time, and he'll be on the same level as Ashe with Fódlan cuisine.

🔪 What does your OC think how they’ll die? 

This one is worded weirdly so I'm going to assume it means "how does your OC think they'll die".

Tancred was pretty convinced he'd die young due to his chronic illness. As he gets older, he starts to wonder a little, but doesn't really focus it. He probably wants to die in peace, in bed, with a smile on his face.

Rosamund hopes for the same, but thinks she'll probably die in battle. Most likely to an axe or a sword.

Medee is certain she'd be assassinated. There's enough people who want her dead, and those that don't currently will soon.

Davi was sure he was going to die of old age peacefully in bed before the Tragedy. Now he's just waiting for the day someone slips something into his drink or stabs him in the back.

[malsfefanfics]

Yooo, your ocs profile is so cool!!! I wonder, how does Hubert act with his siblings? I actually wish they were in the game now, they're so well written! Good job!

Thank you!!! I'm glad you like them! :D I've been fleshing these characters out with a good friend of mine, and it's been fun getting to explore what kind of people they are.

Regarding how Hubert acts with his siblings, there's one word that definitely comes to mind; protective. He keeps their existance hidden from the world so they don't "become a liability" (as quoted in his Hopes supports with Lysithea). The fact that he sees them being turned into pawns against him (and by extension Edelgard) as a real risk, I think, shows just how much he actually cares about them. They're his weakness, and a very relatable one at that.

When it comes to interactions though, Hubert and Rosamund definitely have a more traditional sibling dynamic. They'll make jabs at each other, tease each other, and occasionally argue. But Hubert dotes on her quite a bit and treats her with a good level of respect, and Rosamund just wants to make her brother proud. I like to think she finds pride in being a Vestra and in service of the Emperor because of him.

One of my favorite headcanons for them is that, while Edelgard was in the Kingdom, Hubert returned to the family, and Rosamund used the opportunity to reestablish a connection with him....by telling him to treat her as he would Edelgard. Claims it's to help him prepare for Edelgrd's return (and she meant it when she said it, can't let those retainer skills get rusty), but really, she used the chance to have him sneak her extra slices of cake after dinner. He saw right through her schemes, but still did it anyway. He also had to chide her for running with sharp objects in the house, too.

As for Tancred? Hubert is dad. Iason may be the biological father, but Hubert was more of a dad to him that their father ever was, so when Tancred hears the words "father" or "dad", he immediately thinks of his brother. And it definitely shows in their interactions. Tancred really looks up to him, and doesn't mind the constant comparisons, as he thinks it means he's going to be "really tall and smart and strong just like him" when he gets older. The few times Hubert managed to come see him were always a treat, and he grew a love of magic study because of the spells he learned from his brother. Due to Tancred's poor health and unstable magic power, Hubert is especially protective of the little one.

My favorite headcanon for Tancred and Hubert is built on some headcanons of Vestra family customs (because we were ROBBED of the chance at prime lore behind this family). Basically, the headcanon is that usually the Marquis is the one to name the children born into the family, but for whatever reason, their father passed over Tancred, and wouldn't even come see him let alone name him. So Hubert ends up naming him, at the recommendation of their mother and sister. He chose the name "Tancred" because it means "wise/thoughtful counsel", and thought the name would give him the confidence to prove to the old bastard that he's worth more than he realizes.

[malsfefanfics]

9, 20, 27, these are fun ask prompts

Heck yeah!!!

9. If your OC wrote fanfiction (or if they already do), what type? (fix fic, ship, crossovers, AUs, smut, etc.)

Well, Davi is writing fanfic. When you really stop and think about it, a lot of musicals that aren't original musicals are based on other stories. And some of the best operas could technically be considered fanfic if you squint (contemporary fiction is just fanfic of current times, right?)

So him writing Opera based on Duscur religion would technically be fanfic.

Please don't kill me for this opinion it's all in jest.

Rosamund doesn't really write fanfic, but she does sometimes imagine continuations of certain books or ballads.

Medee doesn't write fanfiction. At least, if you ask her.

Tancred is living in an RPF fanfic when you really stop and look at his situation.

20. What role would your OC play in a heist story?

Medee and Rosamund could alternate between being the mastermind and the muscle. They're far too clever and always plan ten steps ahead. But I feel Rosamund would lean more towards the muscle.

Davi is the wronged party and gets roped into being part of the heist. He'd also be muscle.

Tancred is a grifting mastermind and you should fear him.

27.In a murder mystery, what role would your OC play? (e.g. detective, sidekick, wacky suspect, rival investigator who gets in thew way, red herring, true culprit)

Tancred is both the cute sidekick and the investigator depending on if it's a classic mystery or something like Detective Conan.

Medee is the red herring. Everyone thinks she did it. Maybe she did? Who knows?

Davi is like an Ace Attorney Protagonist. He's the wacky sidekick, suspect, and investigator all in one.

Rosamund is the main detective/Ace Attorney Weird Girl.

[malsfefanfics]

10 33 42 for everybody. Happy OC day!

Thank you! Hope you're having a great day!

10. Your OC is introduced to someone who they have clearly met before and cannot remember their name in the slightest.

Rosamund would be straight with them. She'd admit she doesn't remember. She makes it a point to remember this time.

Medee never forgets. But on the rare occasion she does, she uses the classic "What's your name again?" and after getting their first name, follows up with "No, no, your family name, dear."

Tancred is just a kid, so he's very awkward about it. He just pretends he remembers until he hears someone say the name. Or, if this person is particularly nice, he'll admit he doesn't remember and ask again.

Davi also admits it outright like Rosamund, but he follows it up with an apology and that he tries not to remember too many names so he doesn't get attached. Unless the person is racist, then he uses any language except the one the person is using and walks away before things get worse.

33. Your OC has found something funny and cannot, literally cannot, stop laughing.

Rosamund would laugh. And laugh. And point out exactly why it's funny to her. If she can get a word out.

Medee has her hand over her mouth, holding back a snort. Tries to brush it off unless it's particularly embarrassing or entertaining. Or both.

Tancred has the biggest, brightest smile, and even though it's a bit muffled, it's the loveliest sound you'll hear.

Davi is trying to hard to be polite and not laugh. He tends to get louder than Alois when laughing. He also tries to get out of there fast, if the things he finds funny could get him in trouble.

42. Your OC is watching a stage performance by a clown or magician and is called up to the stage in the name of audience participation…

Rosamund refuses if she can. Only goes up if she gets support from her friends/family. And as long as she doesn't get embarrassed.

Tancred and Davi both are super excited to join the performance. Someone will have to go with Tancred to translate just in case. Someone has to remind Davi not to be reckless, and he'll pout like a child because "I know, I'm supposed to lay low, but I WAS INVITED!"

Medee doesn't hesitate. Participates. Vanishing in a puff of smoke after her part is done. Everyone thinks it's part of the show. It's not.

[malsfefanfics]

[malsfefanfics]

2 and 3 for all of them

Alright, let's go!

2. What genre (not counting the one they’re in) would your OC thrive in?

Ooooh, this is hard.

Might seem rather cruel, but I could see Rosamund doing rather well in those sci-fi YA dystopia death game series. A real Katniss Everdeen type. For something calmer, I think the more slow paced fantasy or fantasy adjacent like farming sims (think Fields of Misteria).

Medee thrives in a horror setting. She's the one most attuned to the other worlds and monsters and fears.

Tancred would thrive in settings with the same vibe as Avatar the Last Airbender. Fantasy or Fantasy adjascent would suit him well. Outside of that, I can see him thriving in a sci-fi setting similar to older Star Trek. Or even Doctor Who.

Davi, surprisingly, I could see as a Hallmark level love interest. Contemporary romance feels a very him thing.

3. What genre would your OC do badly in but it would be hilarious or interesting to watch?

So, Davi I could see actually struggling AS an opera character. He loves the opera, and I do think he'd write some fantastic ones. But if he were to suddenly find himself in a musical? Oooooh the plot is going off the rails.

Medee would not do well in children's media. She's why it gets cancelled. Not for anything NSFW, but....let's just say parents are concerned about some of the poisons their children have concocted.

Tancred I could see thriving in most genres eventually. So it's hard to decide where he wouldn't thrive.

Rosamund in a classic high school romance. That's it. She would not do well there and it'd be hilarious to watch her try to be the heroine herself. Very old school 2000s sitcom shenanigans.

[malsfefanfics]

12 and 13 for everyone. I need to hear about the creatures :3c

Okay, here we go!!!

12. What animal would your OC have as their His Dark Materials daemon?

Oooh, this is a tough one.

Rosamund is the easiest. It's a dog. A big black dog. It's Rigel. This one is the easiest to decide on.

For Medee, it would most likely a magpie. Corvids being intelligent and family oriented, and they feel very deeply and are known to grieve very much. Also, magpies have divorce.

Tancred is still very young, so it will be a while until his daemon settles on anything. It might take longer than most, since I imagine he's still figuring out a lot out himself.

Davi I think would be a lioness or some other large wildcat.

13. What Pokémon would be on your OC’s team and/or what would be their preferred type?

So, me and a pal went and created Tancred's a little while ago, so this is a question that has been on my mind for a while.

For the Vestras, it really depends on their personalities rather than types.

Rosamund is very much a hunter, but she's also a canine lover at heart. So her team would be full of puppies. She just chose them. Each doggo has a role. I think Rigel would be a Lycanroc she doesn't usually deploy.

Tancred's team is something he puts together inspired by his loved ones. I imagine the Charcadet is a gift from Ferdinand, while the Corviknight started as a Rookidee that he got from Hubert. The Mimikyu is because he's both a sparkly boy and a spooky boy and is Hubert mini me (or, in a way, a mimic). The Ponyta he gets at Garreg Mach, and Misdreavous are reminiscent of his mother. The Phantump found him.

Medee's is made up of very magic/witch aligned Pokémon. Pokémon she could use as assistants with her research. Though I imagine the last two to join her team are the Runerigus and the Hisuian Zoroark. Because they probably weren't hers to begin with. The other four I imagine she's had since her Academy days.

Now, sadly, pokecharms wasn't working, so I had to make Davi's team on another

For Davi, his team is very much a mix of his loved ones trying to protect him. His team is most subject to change as he figures himself out.

The Oricorio is one he chose for himself shortly after discovering the opera. I feel he'd have Baile Style. Eventually that'll just be his best buddy Pokémon rather than a battle partner (probably replaces it with a Luxray for battles). The Quaquaval is also his own choice and would stay. The Garchomp was his brother Rui's Gible, so it stays. The Kommo-o his grandfather's. I feel like the Kommo-o would eventually be replaced with a different Pokémon so that it can retire in peace. The Pyroar found him as a Litleo and just wouldn't leave him alone. He takes it with, though. He knows he can't avoid the little lion forever. The Kingambit isn't his. It's Graham's. He sends Davi off with it to protect him. It will eventually be replaced with a Gallade, I think.

Oolong and Green and Ginger! And let's go everybody <3

Ooooh goodie~! Let's see.

Oolong: How does your OC decorate their space?

Medee's space is decorated with bookshelves and journals, medical diagrams, small plant terrariums, and the like. Think classic witchy aesthetics mixed with a doctor's office. Her space would get her interrogated by the Church.

Rosamund is similar to that of Bernie mixed with Petra. Arts supplies neatly put away, when not in use, a painting or two on the wall, carefully cared for and ethically sourced fur at the end of her bed or on the floor as a rug. Dog toys as well.

Tancred is a basic children's room at first. Typical children's decorations and books and toys. A big book of old Opera posters collected. Big toy chest. But as he grows older his tastes start to mature. Some of the posters are on the wall but most are still in the book. He has a table with a map of Fódlan and he's using his toy soldiers to practice strategy, and he has a large wall scroll of beginner's dancer moves on it he practices.

Davi's space is very much filled with colors. He has wood carvings he's done to memorialize the faces of his loved ones. There's a tapestry weaved and hanging from the wall he managed to rescue from his village that was hanging in the home of the local priest before he left home. There's a small alter in the corner of the room he often sits in front of when he feels the need to pray or speak to his mother, brother, or grandfather. He also has a box of special candles and incense he burns on special occasions.

Green: What is your OC’s favorite piece of clothing?

For Medee, it's her hair piece. Her sister gifted it to her before leaving for the Kingdom.

Rosamund loves her cloak. She won't say it out loud, but she loves how she can come off as intimidating in the dark when wearing it.

Tancred loves all his clothes because they're mostly Hubert's hand-me-downs, up until he gets his post-time skip look. That's an outfit everyone collectively supported him getting for himself and he adores it.

Davi's favorite piece of clothing is his father's kilt. A large, soft, twilight colored traditional great kilt with patterns traditional to his village back home in Duscur.

Ginger: What always brightens your OC’s day?

Tancred: Seeing his brother, sister, mother, or anyone from the Strike Force. He just loves spending time with people.

Rosamund: A nice walk with her dogs in the woods. It's the one place she can always be guaranteed to find comfort in.

Medee: A surprise. She's usually preferring to be a giver rather than a receiver, but you bring her something aligning to her tastes and she isn't expecting it, she'll brighten up immediately.

Davi: Singing. Whether it's him or someone else. He hears a song, and he's much happier.
