Hello and welcome, I’m Viking!
This is a fandom blog, and I’m currently mostly yelling about FFXIV, but you’ll also find Dragon Age, BG3, and interactive fiction - mostly Wayfarer. It’s my main blog too, so I’ll yell about personal and random stuff too. Obsessed with wizards, mages, elves, minor and overlooked characters, and apparently pirates.
I’m an adult, and do expect you to moderate your own internet experience. Content is occasionally mature and explicit.
I write and read a bunch of fanfic, I’ve written fanfic for Dragon Age, Uprooted (Naomi Novik), FFXIV, and Wayfarer

Meryta Khatin - Warrior of Light
omni-crafter, archer, protector, self-sufficient, fierce, optimistic, and hanging on by her fingertips
I'm currently playing through Shadowbringers!

Important note: I don’t check my followers, if you don’t like my content feel free to unfollow, I promise it’s not weird.
Lastly, I’m Viking because I’m originally from Denmark, this blog is not about vikings, the vikings tv show, the vikings football team; and if you use viking aesthetics for your white supremacy please fucking don’t and I will block you.

The fact that Karlach calls herself “momma K” and the fact that when she finds that little hopscotch drawing in the blighted village, she sings the little song and the fact that she has a favorite teddy bear and the fact that any time one of the companions is faced with an impossible choice or adversity, her first reaction is to protect and defend - it just makes me love her more. If you recruit her before Wyll, she immediately forgives him and asks you to let him stay despite him having hunted her for so long. She’s so kind, she’s so fun and she loves with everything she has despite having her heart literally and metaphorically ripped from her chest by someone she cared for. She tells you she loves you, even if you don’t romance her. I fucking love this character and I think about her all the time - about how it’s so easy to be bad and angry and hardened and, while she is very angry, she doesn’t let that stop her from being good or doing what’s right. They didn’t break her, Karlach is indestructible because of the very thing that was stolen from her - her gigantic fucking heart. She’s also incredibly wise and insightful - hearing her opinions on anything never disappoints. She is proof that “good” characters will always be compelling and I love her.

For some absurd reason I never showed off the absolutely gorgeous commission of Ellana and Solas I got from @ashalle-art so I am rectifying that mistake because I don’t know how I didn’t share it immediately
If you are ever so lucky to commission her you absolutely have to do it. It’s so completely worth it.

Why do I see so many articles referring to Halsin as a half-orc? He not a half-orc, he just speculated that maybe there was one in previous generations, and given that he’s like 350 it was probably a while ago.
Not that I care whether he’s half orc or 3/4 or whatever I’m just bothered when people fail to pay attention to what’s said explicitly in-game and then throw that info out there for the world.
Art by @naariel who should really be your first and only stop for quality Halsin content.

Finished these two cuties today! Still debating with myself, if something not safe for work next, or something Baldurs Gate :D
