Decided to play the original Baldur's Gate and while playing I noticed the in game year is 1368, so I got scared and looked up when Astarion was born, 1229... He was 139...

Astarion was under Cazador's control during the original BG game!

ASTARION NOOOOO

So my work was robbed yesterday. Man tried to steal the whole till in front of me.

Some old sketches of my baby Donovan "Donny/the Doll" Price.

His human appearance is pretty darn cute, in my opinion. His Hazbin Hotel form is cute too, but he loses his pretty green eyes.

I kinda realized I need to do more research on the drow and tweak Tarlins' background. Cause it sounds like Lolth priestesses don't have children, and their sole purpose in life is to worship the spider goddess. So Tarlin being a child of one, not likely. Maybe I'll make his mother a batshit Mage that picked out the prettiest of the literal fuck boys being sold on the street.

Been playing bg3 again and enjoying them mods!

Because of all that I finally got around to draw my drow Tarlin (Tavlyn depending on which campaign I'm playing cause I keep making new campaigns and they're all just him)

Tarlin was born in the underdark in Menzoberranzan to a lower Lolth priestess and her pleasure slave, a Seldarine drow named Ristal. He was destined to be a lolth priestess as well, but as an Eilistraee worshipper, Ristal couldn't handle having his youngest being a pawn for the spider queen. So he abducted him while he was only a couple months old and ran to the surface, ending up in Luskan.

While on the surface Ristal fell in love with a half elf who instantly took the role of Tarlins mother. Everything was great until about 6 years in when Ristal disappeared and a odd fringe group of Sune worshippers kidnapped Tarlin.

Tarlins life is a blur after that, living in a cult until his late teens, losing his best friend(who is turned into a vampire), then escaping and wondering Faerun in search of said friend, his mother and father.

He finds his friend in his early 40s shortly before the events of Bg3.

(in traditional vampire fan fashion) Tarlin and Astarion become partners.

In whatever ending the good, the bad, and the heartbreaking, Tarlin ends up being turned into a vampire by his friend during childbirth. He has a daughter with Astarion, Alena, a dhampir.

Little tidbits:

Tarlins left eye is marked with a Sune blessing, the red gets more vibrant when Tarlin develops genuine feelings for someone (the only someone is Astarion). The mark will turn black and his left eye goes blind when he is heartbroken, only happens in a heartbreaking ending.

Tarlin is an Eilistraee worshipper, so he has her old symbol tattooed on his left arm. He has 2 star tattoos on his chest because they are the first thing he remembers seeing when he and his father left the underdark.

Tarlin has piercings, nearly everywhere. He takes out his facial piercings during the events of bg3, cause being punched in the face hurts with them in, and obviously, he fights more, and he can't deal with that bs.

I'm gonna post some screenshots of everyone soon cause I spent 3 hours just designing what everyone in his family looks like.

Am I expanding lore for a Hazbin Hotel oc? or am I doing it for an Original character?

I have no fucking clue anymore!

I just wanted to make a creepy stalker rabbit who started eating people when they entered hell. Being murdered by your Mafia boyfriend really fucks with you. BUT of course I have to write their backstory now. FUCK

[tiredcyclops]

I forgot how to set up a research paper...

I'm not even writing a paper I'm just researching stuff for my story.

[tiredcyclops]

If you ignore the bunny ears, you can see what I mean by he looks like a knock-off Rocky Twin (Bigger kicker the Dolly twins).

Look at the human one cause that's the one I'm writing a story about.

This is Donovan "Donny the Doll" Price. He's got some story to him and I'm too tired to type it all out.

I've posted him before on my artblog, (ssssh he's an OC for a show no biggy, I want to write his back story)

[tiredcyclops]

In December 1927, Norwegian-born twins Paal and Lief Roschberg started their career with a bang by impersonating the newly-retired Dolly Sisters at Les Ailes de Paris.

They then arranged to dance with Josephine Baker, until the other legendary Paris cabaret performer Mistinguette swooped in and took them under her wing. It was a very Taylor Swift-Katy Perry situation.

Later, Mistinguette would say of them, "They were so ravishing that each night after the show they would allow themselves to be kidnapped by beauty enthusiasts of both sexes."

The Rocky Twins became known more for their stunning androgynous beauty rather than their fantastic dance moves, they were nonetheless one of the most celebrated stage acts of the Jazz Age. They lived an opulent, adventuresome lifestyle that had them touring all over the world, funded by older wealthy male patrons.

Eventually, the two found their way to Hollywood. They didn't find much success in films, but continued to have a successful stage career until they split professionally in 1937.

I'm doing research for a character and while digging I found two people who look like my character.

I've never seen these two in my life and it's spooky my boy looks like them.

Spooky

Fun discovers are work today.

We are considered a high risk store and the new SM just came from a store that closed because of that very reason.

So guess who should probably start looking into other places.

Me. It's me.

Also people already employeed at my work are being fucked over with their hours being cut and some being demoted without being told (it's more complicated and I'm eating so I'm not typing it all out.)

shits getting messy.
