It’s been a while ~ I haven’t published anything for a long time because after a week most of my drawling looks terible to me 😅😅 or i beginning projects way too big and they start to bore me😝 On the occasion that I have the last 20 episodes of Mighty Nein to watch, I drew our favorite Hot Boy - Essek Thelyss <3

re: All the Predathos, Luxon, god eating food chain stuff they're talking about on 4sd: I believe that the Luxon and Predathos are equal in terms of power level, but are distinctly different beings.

Iirc, Matt confirmed somewhere that the Luxon is/was real and that the dynasty is not a cult, which implies that there's some truth to their creation myth. According to them, the Luxon visited Exandria and imbued it with magic, creating the Primordials, and then split itself apart into beacons to help mortals thrive. Then, from mortals belief, gods are born.

If Predathos is a god-eater, then maybe the Luxon is a god-maker.

Despite not being a member of Exandria's pantheon, the Luxon fuels the faith of an entire culture. Predathos, similarly, is not a member of the pantheon, but apparently has an entire cult (and maybe even has a whole city of worshipers up on the moon). Both of them have associations with fate/reality, both of them influence people significantly with magic, and both of them are sort of proto-beings with very vague domains.

Pretty much every other lesser deity is has a physical presence in the world and veeery few other non-gods have impacts as large as the Luxon or Predathos. They seem to be on equal standing, but the Luxon could be more powerful than Predathos just based on following.

Who knows maybe the only way to defeat Predathos once and for all is to reunite all the beacons and summon the Luxon back in its full power...

Just had a thought.

The Luxon is separated into the Beacons.

The Beacons are scattered across Exandria.

If Predathos tries to eat the Luxon, then it would need to tear apart Exandria to do so.

gonna have to deal with three years of having the thumb from spy kids as a prime minister,,, feels bad man

Christopher Luxon's gang patch policy is irresponsible and will lead to increased racism against Māori.

Christopher Luxon plans to give the cops power to break up gangs and make wearing gang patches an offence. But what counts as a gang patch? What proof of gang membership do the cops need to break up groups? The cops are already proven to be racist against Māori. "Gangs" are already a racist dog whistle used by the right against Māori. Giving the government this power gives the cops another excuse to target Māori.

Can we really trust Aotearoa's cops to identify specific gang patches from a distance? This policy could very well lead to cops targeting anyone who wears anything that sort of looks like a gang patch. Unless all cops have an extensive knowledge of gang patches, an eagle eye, and good morals, this policy is ridiculous.

Certain cops will have different ideas about what counts as a "gang". There are people who will call any political cause they disagree with a "gang". This policy could empower cops to intimidate or even break up groups of antifa, queers, anti-racists, etc. This policy could be a tool of political suppression.

Christopher Luxon's a dickhead who does not belong in government.

Last two comms i worked on!

What if Predathos, the God-Eater, is the Luxon? The dunamis magic they're using is just parts left over from the battle with the gods, who came to Exandria after the Luxon, banished Predathos because of reasons??? Like, this is my world why fuck it up with your shit??? Oh my god I don't know but feeding the Malleus Key concentrated Beacon magic/dunamis/dunamatic magic is just leaving me with questions????

Though Lolth cannot sense the will or power of the Luxon, she is entirely bent on destroying the Luxon's followers and their memory.

Taken from the Spider Queen's wiki page that in turn took it from the Guide to Wildemount rulebook.

This means something! Not only Lolth's relationship with Opal-Ted but her relationship with the Drow -her supposed creation- now passionately worshipping the Luxon which she despises. So juicy!!!!

*puts on a tinfoil hat*

What if Zerxus was actually Luxon's paladin? With all that stars and cosmos imagery and reaching for divinity beyond gods (what other source can there be?)

I tried my hand at recreating gw1 Luxon warrior armor for my vindicator! I really want to recreate some Kurzick armor now, lol.

and for my second Beyond The Divine Gate piece, a Cleric of the Luxon (Light Domain), Brazen den Duendalos! @artists-guild-of-exandria

the luxon is such an interesting god for so many reasons. it's fascinating. its the only god who's followers do not primarily wield divine magic. in fact, it's worship is defined by a school of arcane magic and some characters even say the luxon is the source of dunamis, which is distinctly arcane. it's also the only god other than tharizdun that has an amorphous/non-physical appearance. it is the only god to have such a large following but also have so little historical prevalence and not have a prime or betrayer title. it is the only god who's religion has a proper creation myth. the luxon beacons are totally unique and no other gods have anything like them. it is the only god that is connected to genuine rebirth and reincarnation rather than a more traditional afterlife. like what the fuck is up with that ? what is the luxon actually?

Decided I needed to make medieval-ish fanart of some DnD characters last night, I’m going to repaint the borders but I’m really happy with the portraits.

Sikkuhl (to the left) belongs to a friend, Haven belongs to meeeee

Okay, so, was that implication that Evandrin became the Luxon and all this time has been looking for a way to rescue Zerxus?

Or the Luxon is aiding Evandrin's search with the Beacons?

I’m finally getting around to writing my version of a Champion of the Luxon Essek AU, and the scene I’m outlining rn is basically just,

Essek: Stop!

Luxon: But-!

Essek: No!

Luxon: But...

Essek: No.

Luxon: I can tell you a cool secret.  :(

Essek: ...Go on.

And it’s honestly my favorite part.
