Tag Game: OC Picrew

Thanks to @illarian-rambling for the tag!

Rules: Use this picrew and show off your oc (s)

I'm gonna do this with the Trials of the Six crew (sans Krivyn because I've never found a good picrew to depict a suit of armor. Pretty sure the vision I have in my head wouldn't properly translate to a picrew anyway).

@aalinaaaaaa and open tag! :D

Long post incoming:

Hiel Fillius

Mage from the Permafrost with the ability to control ice. Amnesiac. Bilingual. Good sense of direction. Quiet and reserved personality, but incredibly observant. His eyes turn blue while using his powers, and his body temperature drops.

Jarsali Fortus

Ilunian Mage with the ability to alter the weather and summon lightning. Generally has a sunny and light-hearted demeanor. Sibling relationship with Korfel. Multilingual. Fights with a quarterstaff, and would rather be hit with it than express negative emotions to another human being. Eldest daughter syndrome. Her hair flows in an invisible wind when she uses her powers, and it becomes difficult to breathe.

Korfel Domin

Mage from Tya with the ability to control earth and stone and sense vibrations. The responsible and stern leader of the group. Sibling relationship with Jarsali. Fights with a scimitar. Monolingual, but passable in some other languages. No perceptible change when he uses his powers, but he becomes lightheaded.

Raiann Ignis

Mage from Mareln who can control fire. Handy when she was a smithy, not so much in Tyan towns with thatched roofs. Exile. Friends with Aquilar and Elya. Bilingual, passable in a third. Fights with obsidian daggers. Her eyes glow orange when she uses her powers, and her body temperature rises.

Aquilar Puer-Maris

Mage from Tectuem with the ability to control water. Former helmsman on a privateer ship. Prefers to fight using his powers. Multilingual. Friends with Raiann and Elya. No perceptible change when using his powers, but he becomes thirsty.

Krivyn

No picrew, but I'll describe him anyway. He wears sleek armor composed of black metal with electric blue accents. Upon closer inspection, the armor appears to be made of hundreds of small scale-like pieces that fit together and move in a way that shouldn't be possible for any known metals on Rymn. His helmet is much the same, with dark tempered glass over the eyes, nearly indistinguishable from the rest of the face plate. The accents line the armor almost like uniform, geometric veins, and all lines meet at a circle in the center, which appears to be composed of colored glass set into the metal. The armor doesn't cover his elbows, knees or the palms of his hands. His elbows and knees have pads to protect them, and his hands are covered with a dark, thin material.

Never clarifies where he hails from. Claims that his ability is to create portals across short distances. Multilingual. Acquainted with Za'ret somehow, seems to harbor a unique hatred. Fights hand-to-hand, with his armor giving him a distinct advantage. Decisive and a planner. Very expressive. Never seen without his armor.

Elya

Alchemist who claims to be from Sala, a tiny country south of Mareln. Group healer and served as ship's doctor with Aquilar. Friends with Aquilar and Raiann. Multilingual. Faint greenish stripes on her skin, mostly hidden underneath her clothing. Never without her necklace. Skilled at deception.

General Za'ret

Esteemed general of the Tyan army, particularly interested in invading the Permafrost. Sadistic. Employs Enitan, and is acquainted with Elya and Krivyn somehow. His necklace is similar to Elya's but it is instead a greenish blue color, tucked under his shirt. Multilingual. Murderer. Seeks something on Rymn and is willing to do anything to gain it.

Enitan

Ilunian assassin employed by Za'ret. Bilingual. Never without the short dagger on her right hip. Potentially from the same fleet as Jarsali. Well-versed in the amount of punishment the human body can withstand. Familiar with drugs and poisons. Her hands are figuratively stained with blood. Prefers to fight hand-to-hand.

Tag Game: Favorite Character Tag (Antagonist Edition)

Thanks to @somethingclevermahogony and @willtheweaver for the tags!

Rules: Make a poll of some of your characters (in this case the antagonists), provide descriptions, and have your followers vote on their favorite!

I think I'm going to do the antagonists from The Legend of Orian Goldeneye plus the ones from Trials of the Six to make for a total of five!

Azura Lazuli (The Legend of Orian Goldeneye)

A female dreamshaper of incredible power who seeks revenge on those who have caused her harm. She has long blonde hair, light skin and blue eyes, dressing in shades of blue with silver jewelry. She controls Iron Hollow, leaving the bureaucracy to a small terrified council as she is often away on revenge business tracking down and assassinating as she sees fit. She doesn't care who she has to torture or kill to get to her ultimate targets.

Henrik Bronze (The Legend of Orian Goldeneye)

The captain of the guard of Saint's Shoal, his primary goal is to ensure the safety of the citizens. He works with Orian Goldeneye and Diana Ozborne on occasion, despite those two being at the top of the most wanted list. Has history with Ozborne and would very much like to shut down her smuggling operation, but he can't deny her reasoning for dodging the law. Arrests Jas and Killian for being suspected dreamshapers working with Azura.

Morpheus Dreamshaper (The Legend of Orian Goldeneye)

Considered by many to be the first dreamshaper and the one tasked with ensuring the balance between dreamshapers and nondreamshapers. Shunted that task to his protegee Orian Goldeneye sometime before the novel starts and promptly vanished.

General Za'ret (Trials of the Six)

Supposedly a general from Tya overseeing the war effort in the north. In actuality a Jumper seeking to gain power and influence on Rymn and using the war as a stepping stone. Doesn't care how many lives are lost or how many people he has to torture to get what he wants. Particularly cruel in his methods for torturing mages by using their own preferred elements against them (waterboarding for water mages, branding for fire mages, etc).

Elya (Trials of the Six)

An alchemist who claims to be from Sala, she served as ship's doctor with Aquilar at the same time he was helmsman. Joined the group as their healer. Right before the story starts, she gave Hiel some 'medicine' for his wounds and left the group for her own reasons. The medicine turned out to be a sort of poison that erased Hiel's memories.

Hiel: "I... you... how could you?! You honorless monster!" Jarsali: *stares, eyes wide* "How... how?!" Korfel: *hand on his sword, visibly shaken* "I... huh." Aquilar: "You... you monster! How could you do something like that?!" Raiann: *muttering* Nope. Nope nope noooooope--- Elya: *exhales slowly, hands curled into tight fists* "..." Za'ret: "Well... that's surprising."
