A warm up doodle

Do you believe in soulmates? You should. They exist. I met mine in the dusty streets of an unfamiliar city. A man with black hair and a wry smile - who knew how to cheat and lie, how to charm and serenade. A thief, a gentleman and in his ways a brilliant scholar who was devoted to his books and his studies. It was love at first sight, for both of us. ...he’s gone now, but maybe we’ll meet again someday; if he wears a new face, my heart will still know him, and love him so.

-Mjrn, speaking of Garrett.

Is this your card? Don’t answer, I know it. I’ve seen it all already. So with that... let’s begin?

► VOICE REFERENCE

Pitch and Tone: Kari Wahlgren - specifically from Durarara. Very calm, somewhat musical and velvety and very easy to listen to. It feels like she could tell you a thousand stories and you’d never be tired of hearing her. Because she’s so calm and she doesn’t give off any tells when she lies, everything that comes out of her mouth is entirely probable and people naturally believe her.  Vocal personality : Magilou from Tales of Berseria, as portrayed by Erica Lindbeck. Bright. Enjoys life. Enjoys sarcasm and jokes and generally speaking in a million riddles. ...try and imagine that combination and you have the Master Trickster that is Mjrn.

Nature Aesthetics || Mjrn Deckdealer

Bold the natural aesthetics that appeal to / apply to your muse.

fluffy white nimbus clouds. dark grey cumulonimbus clouds. rain clouds. a hurricane. light spring breeze. a sherbet-colored sky at sunrise. hazy yellow skies. deep blue ponds of fresh water. blankets of sparkling snow. tornado winds. monsoon flooding. rich, orange sunsets. soft, purple clouds at dusk. heavy hail. the rumbling of thunder.

icy sleet. gentle snowfall. moss-dusted tree bark. pink sunset clouds. grey winter skies. navy blue skies in the daytime. cool mist in the morning. leaf-bare trees. giant ocean waves. the full moon. a cracked, dry desert. rolling hills of prairie grass. sweeping waves of briny seawater. rocky, steep ravines. rippling canyon walls. spindly, cave stalactites. creeping, green ivy. lush canopies of leafy trees. dense, white fog. a peaceful creek of clear water.

flowering cacti dusted with dew, catching light in the morning sun. a bubbling, hot pool of volcanic sulfur.sharp, grey mountainsides. fossils nestled in chunks of rock. a white sand beach. deep imprints of animal tracks in the dirt. soft, squishy moss. uniform rows of birch trees in winter. delicate mushrooms popping up in spring from beneath the decay on the forest floor. tumbleweeds jerking in the faintest wind across the desert landscape. light rain.

summer wildfires. a mixing of hot and cool air before a storm. silent lightning in the static of summer heat.a windy blizzard. thick flakes of snow tumbling down from the sky. a tree standing alone in a barren, yellow field.a desert of loose sand and tall, orange dunes. a pure blue sky. a river of molten rock. a grove of flowering trees. twisting, mangled roots sticking up from the muddy ground.

bitter, cold winds. tumultuous skies of stormy clouds. branches of lightning ripping across the sky. a foggy swamp. the tree-bare foothills of a mountain range. sandy brown cliff sides. rocky coastlines. the violent shaking of an earthquake. the mysterious sound of ethereal trumpets in the sky. the lights of the auroras borealis and australis.

a black sand beach. a lone tropical island in the reef of shallow, aqua waters. underwater volcanic vents. a herd of migrating mammals. tree branches growing heavy with ripe fruit. light streaming down through the clouds. a field of lush grain wading peacefully in the summer breeze. the sound of insects and frogs teeming in the night. natural diamonds nestled in coarse desert sands. a frozen lake. tagged: @bubblelizards tagging: @iorelyn @geisterfuchs @nozomikei @pettankoprincess @khujatotayuun @voidseapickle
