Alright, I’ve personally been wondering what other people’s opinions on this would be, so
*I know IBS isn’t a true expansion but it’s got its own mastery line so I’m counting it

wanted to do a physical timeline for my commander and highlight how he’s changed through the years. this is mostly for my own entertainment BUT I do enjoy seeing the same thing from other folks so I’m posting it here in the hopes that other people share my sentiment.
(I was ALSO totally inspired by @/manasurge’s hair timeline. it kicks ass. go look at it.)
elaboration/rambling below the cut!
Personal Story, LW1-2: Popped out of the pod blunt, solicitous, and already maybe a little too paranoid for someone who was born yesterday, but all those traits made him uniquely qualified for a position in military leadership. Healthy and floral, soft aspen-bark-like skin, delicate petals. black anthers produce pollen. undergoes more fashion changes than physical transformations during this time. gets a little banged up here and there (and maybe has some lasting respiratory effects from the toxic alliance era) but overall feelin a-okay.
Heart of Thorns: it’s all gone to shit. took a spectacular headdive in both a physical and mental sense with breakneck speed. never “officially” answered mordremoth’s call, but anyone who spent time around him would notice a distinct lack of self control and logical thinking. took on a more sickly pallor, stress caused leaves to shrivel, rot, and decay. lost his lil flower top notch and ability to produce pollen. pupils narrowed to take on a more animalistic look, and enamel growth resulted in sharper, larger teeth. fingers also elongated into claws. never fully physically and mentally recovered from the hell jungle.
LW3: chopped off most of his leaves to encourage fresh growth. lots of physical healing during this time, though it takes quite a while for his complexion to fully recover. takes on the role of aurene’s champion with gusto. relatively unaffected by bloodstone, but feels the effects of mordremoth’s loose/uncontrolled magic deeply. continues to hear mordremoth’s “voice” and is diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia.
Path of Fire: still healing from HoT. continues to grow out his leaves. glow returns, as well as some of his eye color. likes the crystal desert, but finds the harsh, dry climate to be particularly challenging; he’s definitely more of a ‘temperate’ sylvari. does not handle dying well. death only adds to his paranoia and psychosis. has an increasingly hard time picking apart what is real and what is…. not.
LW4: let’s get ready to kill an undead lich!!!! absorbs even more magic after the death of joko and kralkatorrik, and it starts to show in a there-and-gone shimmery aura that takes on a similar appearance to ley lines. starts to suffer from migraine auras. flower top notch grows back, but stays closed and dormant. picks up a few nifty necromancy tricks from the elonians, and the tips of his fingers start to show signs of necrotic decay; all that death magic can’t be good for the complexion, can it?
Icebrood Saga: having another dragon in his head does not help his mental health in the slightest. braided leaves (courtesy of braham <3) to protect against frostbite. his ley “aura” gets more intense, hard to miss, and is a near constant. flower topnotch remains closed due to the cold weather conditions. after being shot by bangar, his wound is covered/healed by aurene’s brand. migraines increase in frequency, makes it difficult for him to focus. a bone deep exhaustion starts to set in, and more often than not, he catches himself thinking that a nice long nap underneath a blanket of snow doesn’t sound so terrible….
End of Dragons: back in a more agreeable climate, his topnotch finally blooms, but does not grow anthers or produce pollen. easily physically corrupted by void magic, and he feels soo-won’s pain and struggle deeply. the void corruption eventually shows up in the form of darkening leaves, and seeping out of his eyes/tearducts (it’s fine. don’t worry about it.). starts to incorporate chaos magic into his own necromancy practices. has a fucking terrible time in gyala delve. has a fucking terrible time saying goodbye to aurene.
Secrets of the Obscure: nothing feels entirely real to him anymore. still willing to help, to fight, but it’s done on autopilot at this point. this magical, floating palace in the sky looks and feels like a dream, with the kryptis acting as the encroaching, inevitable turn to a real, living nightmare. still uses a bit of leftover void in his magical practices, but most of the corruption has left his system. that respiratory illness he picked up back in kessex hills comes back to bite him in nayos. finally grows back his anthers, but instead of producing pollen, it's an outlet for void/magic energy.

I'm kind of mad the charr didnt get the whole body horror, frostbitten, half skeleton-half man thing when they were all icebrooded like the Svanir. The base game Svanir models are scary as hell and they even gave us a new one with the Fraenir in the raven sanctum, but all the charr look like theyve got a cold overlay on them, including Ryland, and I think they shouldve all looked like fucked up monstrosities.
like these bastards have bones showing and fully frozen limbs and the skin you can see is a really frightening pale grey and blue with the ice slowly creeping across their skin and I dont even want to know what their faces look like because
jesus christ

what if we were both deeply alienated from our people by the horrors we experienced and left forever changed, but grew closer while co-parenting a child.. and we were both lesbians?

This winter hasn't been so rough (we've had some dark days)
Oh, it was cold, but still, it wasn't cold enough (we're in the thick of it now)
To freeze the blood beneath my spine (and when the ice breaks)
At least I'll survive
(Dark Days, PUP)

Rytlock Brimstone: Commander, you got a second?
Crecia Stoneglow: We could use your perspective on something.
Commander: (annoyed eagle screech)
Crecia Stoneglow: ...Uh.
Rytlock Brimstone: Yeah, y'know what? You sound pretty busy. We got this. Just keep doing whatever it is you're doing.

There's a trio of Vigil goofballs running around in western Bjora's, south of the Kodan settlement, chatting with each other about various topics. I liked their silly dynamic... :)

So I’ve been replaying the story and this whole chapter made me cackle thinking about what must’ve the commander been thinking while seeing Ryland’s memories. And it’s even funnier that that the commander mumbled things while they were in the vision.
#bangar had it coming for him#should have listened#anyway#as much as they are many things to say about the icebrood saga in sense of what could’ve been done better#but there are still some golden scenes and lines#icebrood saga#gw2#guildwars2#guild wars 2#gw2 art#sylvari#oc: aahrtur

Does anyone else remember when No quarter first released with the plan to put in voice acting later so all the dialogue was silent until Ryland said "I trusted you" and it was legitimately chilling
#mage rambles#icebrood saga was good champions fumbled the bag at the end there but icebrood saga was good#gw2

I want to talk more about having a norn or an asura commander or commander adjacent character at the death of Primordus and Jormag.
I want to talk more about the weight of playing part in the death of the very thing that drove your people from their homes, terrified and uncertain in the unforgiving cold or dark and winding depths, teetering for decades on the brink of extinction.
Part in vengeance, however hollow it may feel.
The game gives it so little weight. I can't even remember it ever coming up. I want to talk more about it.

"I woke up like this, at the Eye of the North. A searing wound on my chest that my healing magic works little on."
"Aurene was there, helped heal what she could. The rest will come with time. My... Friends. They were there too, reminded me what happened. But..."
"I remember it all, up until Bangar shot me with Eir's bow. That fire magic, that's probably why the wound still burns. My magic is part fire, perhaps that's why it won't work. Aurene doesn't have a hold over water or ice magic yet either."
"It wasn't just Bangar that did this to me though. Rytlock, and Crecia... They both attacked me. Along with the Whisper. They're all why I'm like this."
"I talked to them, along with Braham and Jhavi, they were relieved to see me alive. And I... It was hard to put on a face. They saw through it anyway."
"They could see I was hurt, more than physically. I just... Wanted those two to go. In my heart I know it wasn't them, it was Jormag. But that doesn't ease the apprehension I feel around them."
"Time, on my own. That's all I asked, aside from where my armour was. Turns out most of it didn't survive the onslaught of the Whisper, Sohothin, Flame magic and Eir's bow."
"Before Rytlock and Crecia left, they offered to get it repaired. What's the point? It won't protect me from that again. Then Rytlock insisted he would get me some new armour, sturdier than what I had."
"He wants to make up for what he did, that's just who he is. Alright, I said. But I still wanted to be alone. To heal."
"On they went, I heard Braham talking to Rytlock too. Something about repurposing his old gauntlets, and Jhavi mentioning about Vigil supplies, they were out of earshot before I could hear anything else."
"...Something that Crecia said weighed on my mind too. A charr civil war. Burn me, and I can't do anything to help, injured like this. I have to rest, wait. Be there when I can, hopefully not too late."
"...This is a disaster."
