It's my friend @steel-peach's birthday today, so I drew some giftart of their amazing Warlock/Wizard couple! I love these two so much and Tea's art of them is always so inspiring; I hope I did them justice. 💚

ALL RIGHT, 'LOCKS! HUDDLE UP!

It's time to make Ikora PROUD! Let's claim that statue in the courtyard! Let's WIN these Guardian Games!!!

Dawnblades, get those swords fired up. Voidwalkers, show 'em there's no escape. Stormcallers, let's see that "hurricane without."

And while we're at it, throw some Stasis and Strand at 'em, too!

Let's CRUSH the Titans and Hunters!!! Here, I've printed out Ikora Rey's Crucible stats for everyone- if anyone tries to tell you Warlocks can't fight, feel free to shove them in their faces.

Remember- we're WAR-locks, not PEACE-locks!

Ready, BREAK!!!

Had an idea to improve the other grenades that don't have an upgrade in an aspect. Really had to get silly with some of these ideas.

WONDERFUL NEWS:

I am no longer a hunter main.

I'm coming home.

This pve build is actually nuts and is the thing that convinced me to try that recent solo flawless dungeon marathon. Lots of fun, and completely viable!

Here's my warlock, Alysia! She is a determined defender of the Dreaming City, and is desperate to end the curse so her lover, Kamara can be freed.

Because of her determination, she has so many titles:

Cursebreaker

Rivensbane

Realmwalker

Queensguard

Wishbearer

Out of all my Guardians, Alysia has the most "lore". Every 3 weeks she does Shattered Throne and every week she helps Petra with the Dreaming City, doing patrols and helping the Corsairs.

She does use Stasis mostly but before that she was a Voidwalker and a Stormcaller. Now she runs Prismatic and combines all three (made an actual build that does this and it's pretty nice!). She only just started to use Solar with Song of Flame as she is clumsy with dawnblade. She can't use Strand because she refuses to let go of things. She holds her hands too tightly. Osiris and Ikora both have tried to help her to no avail.

Uri, her ghost, is constantly worried about their guardian and tries to cheer Alysia up. Uri talks to Glint sometimes about advice.

Currently, she is following rumors that a certain vex mind is back from Season of the Splicer in the corrupted vex network...

Light Projections in the Red War

So I've been doing a bit of a deep-dive into the Red War Campaign for a fic over the last few months (ah how I miss her) and something occurred to me when I considered the Light and the Darkness and how they've both been portrayed and defined in the last few years. Now, D2 the Red War came out in like 2017, so maybe this is a case of a lack of planning and forethought, but if Bungie has shown us anything in the past few years of story content, it's that they really plan ahead, so I don't feel like that's it.

As a part of the initial D2 content, there was a series of missions for players to unlock their extra subclasses, for Warlocks you could do missions for Voidwalker and Stormcaller, for Titans it was Striker and Sunbreaker, for Hunters Gunslinger and Nightstalker (maybe they haven't gotten rid of these, it's been a long time since I've unlocked a subclass). On all of these quests, you'd go through the EDZ and towards the Shard of the Traveler and along the way you'd encounter a set of what Ghost called "Light projections," figures of either Guardians that used (or still do/at the time still did) wield the subclass you're trying to get, or are enemies that were defeated by Guardians that wield the subclass you're getting. They tell stories about themselves, or sometimes others tell you stories about Guardians that used the subclass you're getting, but they each are supposed to have some kind of lesson in them.

What gets me about this, though, is that these projections seem to go against everything we know about Light and Darkness from content like The Witch Queen. The Light is not a physical entity, that's fine, these projections seem to be manifestations of Light, we might be able to hear them, but they don't seem to exist per se or have any tangible mass. But, what's off about them is the fact that they're there at all. The Light, as we know it, makes a point to forget things. When Guardians are revived, they can't remember their past lives, their strength seems to come raw power, and maybe a few guns that get passed down, but nothing like this.

The Darkness, on the other hand, is grounded in memory, and things tangible. In Witch Queen we remade and restored objects using the Darkness, manipulating time itself. In Lightfall, we found the strings that tie the universe together and manipulated those. These projections then, feel a lot like the Darkness from Witch Queen, memories of Guardians past.

One theory could be that all of this takes place in a spot called the Dark Forest, emphasis on Dark. You move through the space, to the shard of the Traveler through a series of Taken portals, which seem to be pretty linked with Hive Darkness. Since the shard of the traveler is calling you to it, a question then arises, is the Shard making the portals appear? Does it have power over this Darkness? If that's the case, then maybe it's using Darkness to manifest these projections, but how does that work, because how can Light control Darkness? Not to mention, these projections, at least visually, seem to be built out of Light, not Darkness, aesthetically linked with all the depictions of Light we've seen at least in this campaign.

So, I don't get it. Maybe because this place is a meeting point of Light and Darkness it's just weird, but I'm having a very hard time making sense of these projections considering the context we've gotten over the past few years. I'd love to hear other people's thoughts on it!

Athena Zephyrus - Determined Leader

"As leader, it's my job to protect my Fireteam."

Name: Athena Zephyrus Aliases: Thena, Guardian, Warlock, Leader, Sparks, Kiddo Birthplace: Old Greece, Earth Species: Human Gender: Female Prounouns: She/Her Hair Colour: Auburn & Teal Eye Colour: Green Ghost Name: Fengári (Fen for short) Affiliation: Guardians Class: Warlock Sublass: Stormcaller Theme: Spark of Hope - Athena's Theme (Dear You - Kind)

Only a year old as a Guardian, Athena took to being a Guardian like a fish to water to the point where some considered her a prodigy among Guardians, though she never let it get to her head. While she tries to come off as serious, professional and wise, Athena is actually very cheerful, playful, optimistic, and a bit of a klutz outside of battle (and sometimes in battle too...). She occasionally has low self-confidence but her ghost - Fen - tries her hardest to keep her spirits up when that happens. Training under Ikora Rey, Athena always tries her hardest to make her Vanguard proud. Though while she has a strong friendship with Ikora, her closest friend in the Tower is Cayde-6. Cayde brings out her cheerful and fun-loving side and enjoys spending time with him. She's even bailed him out of meetings once or twice. While she's a too shy to admit it, Athena has a crush on Cayde...a crush that is obvious to everyone but neither one of them ever act on it, much to everyone's frustration. Athena is forming her own fireteam - Fireteam Eclipse - to prove her ability to become a leader as well as her strength as a Guardian...but had the misfortune of having the reckless loose cannon that is Marcy Cano. Yay...

Fengári: Fengári's - Fen for short - name means 'Moon' in Greek. Fen is quiet and shy but is incredibly smart and protective of her Guardian. Around Athena, she's a lot more open and cheerful, boosting Athena's self-confidence when she needs it and helps ground her when she gets anxious or overthinks things. While Fen considers Athena to be her 'best human friend', her 'best ghost friend' is Sundance, often being dragged into Sundance's mischief and being encouraged to come out of her shell (no pun intended). The duo try to come up with plots to get their Guardians to confess to each other but have had no luck yet. In the meantime, they have a bet as to whose Guardian will confess first.
