YO!
So I'm looking into elf stuff for my next campaign, and I found something interesting. If someone already found this or wrote about it, just ignore me, lol
For everyone who has discussed, "Why does Astarion remember Sebastián but not his own eye color?" HERE'S PROBABLY WHY!
To start with elfs are "children" until they are 50 years old or so. During this time their memories are kinda iffy, just like how when you think about your childhood it's kinda foggy.
NOW TO THE POINT!
Astarion was turned at 39, so he is still a "child" in elf culture (They're not considered adults until they're 100 btw), so he would have that same early memory fog, and that's why he can't remember what he looked like.
As for him remembering Sebastian, when they met, Astarion was 69 *noice* so he should be out of the "child" phase, and his memories are more permanent in away.
tl;dr
Astarion had the elven equivalent of human "baby" memory brain when he was turned, but when he met Sebastian, he was more memory brain stable.
Elves are fickle creatures, and in Dnd feel even more so.
Here's a link where I got my elf info ENJOY
When your work decides to sell ai art...
I work at a craft store. Wtf.
Linda Young commented on my art and I am crying!
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.
Jesus christ, I wish there was a way to delete posts and it would be deleted site wide. All reblogs, quote blogs, etc.
Got this fucking child making new accounts just to message me and it's pissing me off.
I'm in my fucking 30s, go away child.
Made a linktree cause I just want to post my art places and Tumblr got me all sad man.
I'm so bored with this Orc design that I'm scrapping it.
There is good news for doing this though! I remembered an old character of mine I can do a concept sheet of.
He is known among my friends as the "when you nut so hard you turn into a bird" guy. There is lore that involves that very line.
So here is my "when you nut so hard you turn into a bird" guy.
UPDATE
In the meantime, I'm just gonna keep reblogging everything here on main.
I still haven't heard from @support about this blog being shadowbanned (ok but seriously is it really shadowbanned or is there something else happening?) I would really like to have my dms on this side blog and the traffic back so bad.
It gives me the tiniest boost of serotonin, which is really helpful right now with [insert personal irl problems].
Since people are in a hoopla about the new settings thing here is the Terms of Service on Adult Content.
Also got the Violence/Gore stuff screenshot bc I know some artists who make that stuff for a living.
So in a nutshell ~
No irl sexual content
No irl female titty (male titty fine?) Unless it's artistic/educational/newsworthy/political content
No illustrated sexual content
No fucking PERIOD
