Shadowheart

“I don’t remember anything before those woods. All I know is she saved me, and gave me a new home. With Lady Shar.”

New Shadowheart art because she’s been on my mind lately. I can’t wait for crossplay to come out soon so I can start a new campaign with my frienddddd UGGGHHHHH

Hope y’all like this though. It’s been super fun to learn what I need more work on (if you can call numerous crash outs fun).

Also?? The cult mask?? That actually is so freaky I had to turn the layer off when I was finishing this piece. I did that part first and hated how it kept staring at me… why they gotta be so creepy?!?

(pls ask if you want to repost this hehe)

Inquisitor Mora of Clan Lavellan

“That’s what I do. Fall out of the sky, make bad decisions, and somehow everyone still follows me.”

This was so fun to make! For my second piece I think I did really well, especially on her sash 🙂‍↕️ I had a few moments of genuine frustration, specifically her OUTFIT (had me out here considering to just leave her naked) but overall it was a lovely learning process. I know exactly what I need to work on for my next piece.

pls be nice I’m new to drawing 😖

“I don’t deserve to be anyone’s daughter.”

I got an iPad the other day and I’ve been drawing NONSTOP since then. First (kinda) piece done!! I hope y’all like it!!

Gonna be rebranding this account into an art / games account because I do not interact with book content anymore. 🩶

Hello how are ya! I gotta say I recently revisited your Azris bg3 gifs and I was wondering if you ever were planning on making/posting more (or if you already have and they're just on a different platform or on here but I just didn't see them). If you weren't planning on posting any more, totally no pressure, my bad, I am just. A big fan of those visuals haha. Have a good one!

Hello hello! I actually did not have plans to do anymore gifs because I was limited in what I could do - I rely on specific mods to put my characters in those situations (like them kissing or dancing), and to my knowledge the one I use has not been updated to have more choices. So I thought it would be kind of redundant to make them over and over 💔

There are some scenes I can do regularly though, but I have to be at a specific point in the game itself which would take me a longggggggggg time to get to.

Howeverrr, you got me THINKING! Baldur’s Gate 3 is coming out with an update soon that will include a new photo mode, which will open up a whole new world of visuals I can create! So thank you for asking because I honestly didn’t think of it until I read this 😂

Edit because I forgot to mention that I’m not sure when this update is coming out. Hopefully sometime in the next few months (I think they said early 2025!! Get hyped!!) so just sit tight <3

It's astonishing to me how many people will read the text, have it literally right in front of their eyes and still say 'yeah but Elain's the killer'.

Not to drive a wedge between them because looordddd knoooowsss this fandom needs to stop doing that shit, but this is just another way to diminish Nesta's achievements I fear :') Both sisters slayed the scene but it's literal fact what happened

in all seriousness, stripping away all of your personal biases,

who killed the king of hybern?

1. elain — incapacitated the king by stabbing him in the neck, thereby saving nesta and cassian, allowing nesta to decapitate him.

2. nesta — dealt the blow that ended his life, but was only able to because of elain’s action. note that the king might have died at elain’s hand alone if nesta hadn’t acted.

i thought of being nice and adding an option for both, but i’m too curious.

the truth is, it doesn’t really matter. they both slayed.

Didn't feel right that I hadn't commissioned a Neris piece yet, and I've joked a couple times that I finally understand what Zutaras went through back in the day for shipping fanon... so what better inspiration than one of my favorite pieces of Zutara art 😁

I love how soft this turned out, Nesta and Eris look so pretty together in their colors 🥹

Hardcore Nessians are just Nesta antis. 😭 There is no way you can think “bringing out the worst in your partner is a good thing!” Do yall even hear yourselves!?

"Nessian loves each other so deeply that they bring out the worst in each other and that's a good thing"

This is an actual comment from a Nessian shipper. The level of deranged is amazing

Love should not bring out the worst in you in case that wasn't a very obvious thing to know.

Love should not berate you or punish you or blame you, love should not push you to breakdown physically and mentally, love should not lock you away until you conform.

A Court of Silver Flames - Nesta Oh how far we have come.

“When you get tired of the animal, come find me. I’ll show you how a future High Lord carved pumpkins.” - a totally real and accurate quote from ACOSF

Eternally grateful for my bestie and Neris dealer @autumns-high-lady for yet another gorgeous Nesta and Eris piece. Y’all, I saw that I had gotten a discord message from her last night that included a .png, and RAN SO FAST TO SEE IT!

If you’re interested, below was my headcanon from back during @nerisweek about Nesta and Eris carving pumpkins!

Aemond Targaryen - Baldur's Gate 3

"Do not mourn me, mother. It was a fair exchange. I may have lost an eye, but I gained a dragon."

My take on Aemond from HOTD in BG3. A little sad that the eyepatch clips through his face - I think it's the head mod I'm using.

Nesta Archeron and Eris Vanserra as Rapunzel and the Prince. My Halloween piece! Hope you enjoy!

What is it with IC stans finding content that they clearly don’t like, and then interacting with them? I genuinely don’t think I’ve ever seen a post I hated and then went and interacted with it 😭 just block and move on, what is the issue??

sorry for the repost🧎🏻‍♀️🧃

“Nesta was just as nasty to Cassian”

Have you considered that they barely treated her kindly from the beginning? 😭 Feyre went and planted the seed in their heads that she’s some horrible witch, and they met Nesta having this biased perspective. I actually do proudly support Nesta being “mean” because it was provoked every single time. The above quote is just an excuse for nesta antis and so called Nesta stan’s to put her down and raise Cassian up. Get over it.

Leave it to Quinlar to break my Nessian heart

Hunt squared his shoulders, utterly unshakable. Bryce's throat tightened to see it - to know even before he spoke that he had her back. "It's tough for me to accept, especially when they wrecked Lunathion this spring, but if Bryce trusts them, I trust them. Besides, we're out of options."

It kills me that Bryce knew before Hunt even spoke that he had her back. It makes me wonder if Nesta thought Cassian would have her back only to find out that he didn't? Or if she already knew at this point that he would never have her back?

And then we have Hunt, who does not fully support Bryce's decision and thinks it's a tad reckless, but trusts her anyways. Cassian proved that he neither trusted Nesta, nor believed in her.

And then to make matters worse, we have this:

Hunt fell into step beside Bryce, putting a hand on her shoulder as if to offer his support, but she could have sworn that even her mate was disappointed in her.

Hunt is disappointed in Bryce, but he still comforts her and supports her. Cassian let Rhysand threaten Nesta with punishment, let Rhysand directly challenge her, watched his mate cower before Rhysand and never once offered her any support or comfort. And worse, Cassian was the most furious with her. She spent all night thinking she would be executed at dawn, and I guarantee you Cassian offered her no comfort. He ripped her to shreds so badly that she raised that wall of steel in her mind to protect herself from him.

Cassian is a spineless asshole, and SJM does not like her males to be spineless assholes, so I do think we'll get a Cassian redemption. Maybe Hunt will re-enter Prythian and hand over his copy of the Mated Male Memo so Cassian can read up on the bare minimum of being a mated male: 1. Always have your mate's back, even if you don't agree with her. 2. Always trust your mate, even if what she's doing seems reckless, it will always turn out okay in the end. 3. Always support and comfort your mate,  even if you don't fully agree with her decisions.
