Another year has passed so I’ll do a little self promo for my birthday!

Hi! My name is Rin! I’m a 22 year old pre law student from the Philippines! I’ve been a transformers fan for as long as I remember while most of my major projects are focused on bloodborne! Thank you so much for supporting me through the years and looking forward to more brainrot! Thank you and merry advanced Christmas!

Associations post

While I am doing big Laurence post, I found out that lots of paintings for me have strong vibes and references for certain characters. If I will write big text again - I swear I fall asleep, so just a post for me to have as reference in future

Anne of Cleves for Rom

Saint John drawn by Sandro Botticelli and angel drawn by Filippino Lippi for young Laurence

THIS ADORABLY LOOKING MAN - ‘Hans Tucher’ by Albrecht Durer for DAMIAN OF MENSIS GKLNSKJRGTNSKEJHFTKJEA AAAAAA *girly screaming* I LOVE THIS PAINTING FOR YEARS YOU CAN'T IMAGINE HOW MUCH

Oswolt Krel by Durer oooooooooohohhhhhh for Sir Gremia and I I II I I.... (not a reference tbh! My Gremia has different face shapes. But MOOD. THE VIBE. AAAAH)

A man with leather belt by Gustave Corbet for Ludwig

Lady Marjorie Manners (1883–1946), Later Marchioness of Anglesey by James Jebusa Shannon  as Saint Adeline! For long time I tried not to think that she is black-haired but... Lady fell in love with Bicolash in my head and I can't get rid of this headcanon now

Hans Holbein the Younger - "Sketch of unudentified woman" for Adella

I think I will add more later! :0

Bloodbornisms

[blood-starved-beast]

I headcanon that Lady Maria and Laurence have an animosity that goes beyond the typical rivalry that is common between academics with competing theories on the same subject and part of it is cause Maria was one of the earliest and most vocal opponents (or as vocal as Maria would ever be) of use of the Old Blood. Unlike Master Willem's cautioning she straight up tells him the Old Blood is shit and will bring bad consequences (totally drawing from Cainhurst experience here).

She further emphasizes this point by largely refusing to use the Blood to heal in Hunts, largely relying on her skills and is why she's a Master at the Art of Quickening. And lowkey, it's also why her HP is so low compared to other DLC enemies. She had to whether a lot of hits that normally Hunters would heal with the Old Blood and eventually it did have a long-lasting toll on her body. After one pretty bad fight Laurence had walked up to her with a bottle being like "oh wow Maria that's a pretty bad gash you've got there :))))) A shame there's no way to heal that quickly :))))" and was even more annoyed when she refused him even then. Needless to say having a major academic and Hunter snub your work like that, is well a pretty nasty thorn to have on your side.

That is to say, that I don't think Maria was against blood ministration (heck, it's the main thing in Bloodborne). I do think she would be very picky as to where it's sourced from. One of them being from Adeline, and Maria only took it (after much refusal and protest to Adeline being a Blood Saint in the first place) was in a different and worse fight than the aforementioned, it was practically forced onto her by a sobbing Adeline who thought she was going to lose Maria then and there. From then on Maria carried a blood vial of Adeline's blood (at first Adeline would sneak them in, later as the beasts became more dangerous Maria took them willingly) with her on the Hunts.

I also headcanon, with no evidence, that Adeline was Laurence's sister. Surprisingly, this was not a direct point of contention in these colleagues' relationship, but it did cause Laurence to grind his teeth when anyone reminded him of this, or when he'd come home and see Adeline sitting on Maria's lap in their parlor. Laurence, being the first Vicar, was a huge source of Adeline's feelings of inadequency, though she'd never tell him that. She felt she had to measure up in some way, and when she didn't, she felt like nothing. It also compelled her to be a blood Saint, something Maria was strongly against. It was Adeline's insistence that led to Laurence and the Church to ultimately fund Maria's research at the Research Hall, and part of it cause it would distract away from Maria (potentially) being a vocal opponent of the Church and the Hunt.

bloodborne animal assigning but it makes less and less sense

Ludwig is a draft horse. Enough said

I think the horns of a caribou match better than a regular deer

Just look at him..

Vampire.

Djura looks exactly like a palas cat and I will die on this hill.

Greasy like a leech. Slimey bastard.

This is an inside joke but I feel like it makes sense.
