Worked a lineless version

Dragon Age Inquisition Spoilers warning

After finishing the main game, I thought back about my two side ocs’s story, Almael and Tamril.

After Corypheus was defeated, and Leliana was named as the new Divine, Almael (who previously joined the inquisition after they allied with the Mages) left the inquisition to help reforming the College of the Mages.

Now, I have the idea that at some point, Tamril was also sent to the inquisition, but as a secret agent of Fen’harel. I still have to decide what would be his job as a cover there though.

So Tamril and Almael very unexpectedly met again in Skyhold, after they’ve been separated for a little more than ten years.

However, after Corypheus was defeated, they had to separate again to pursue their own respective goals. (At this point, I think that Tamril didn’t revealed yet to Almael about his role).

Note that their story might have eventual changes after the release of DA:D (if this game actually come out one day), depending if Dreadwolf eventually let me use Tamril as my main character (depending what kind of protagonist we will have).

this evening's nano highlight

Me, trying to prompt @the-grim-and-sanguine to help him get out of his writers' block: I mean, I'd love to see a continuation of Tamril being at the party!

@the-grim-and-sanguine, thoroughly pouting: I would too.

so the artificer is now a goat and the bard fucking died

at this point, I've come to expect my OotA sessions to be just a little bit batshit, but this one. . . this one somehow outdid all the ones that have come before it. I'm too tired to write up a full play-by-play, and to do so would probably take me the better of five character limits, so instead, I'm just going to share the recap I sent out to my players after the session was over and give context to each major point via Numbered List. buckle up!!

“So. It turns out that Jimjar Silversinger—or Aitne Mehre, or Tamril Brenten, or Elthym T’sear, or any of the other names they’ve gone by(1)—has more than a few tricks up their sleeve, including both the means and the mission to unmask the man you thought was Elion Brybalar(2). It turns out the real Elion died years ago(3)—except no, he lives on (in a fashion) in the mysterious, fog-shrouded blob on your map known as the Labyrinth(4). Lucien freed him through one deal with a hag, but found escape from his own curse in perhaps the worst manner possible through another(5). Jimjar left to report back to the Vigilants of Aevus who had sent him that his mission was complete(6); Sarith decided to accompany the real Elion on a mutual journey of discovering what, exactly, had happened to them(7); and last you saw of Selaros, the demon rays were gnawing on his corpse(8), so that leaves just seven people in a band of what had started out as fifteen(9). Soon to be six, once you drop off Stool at their home of Neverlight Grove—something which the little myconid is very excited for.”

let's go.

if you missed my last update, the tl;dr is that both I and the moon deity pretending to be Jimjar Silversinger have been pulling a backstory for this fucking guy out of our collective asses. as part of the Big Flashy Reveal intended to keep the bard's secret under wraps for just a little longer, I had Jimjar cycle through some of the other guises his doppelganger spy/assassin has taken. in order of names, they are: a human priest of said moon deity (fun fact this is actually the original human form of said moon deity, and no one fucking knows this but me), a copper dragonborn paladin of Bahamut (it's fine, he gave the moon deity permission to borrow his holy symbol for a bit), and a drow mage (because I wanted to give a bit more spice, okay). not named but featured in the session was Ekha Rhuriak, aka the crow behind Jimjar's bullshit "yeah, uh, I know how to fly for reasons that are Absolutely Not Suspicious At All" story. the significance of these separate forms is that I decided to yoink wild shape mechanics, which led to a very...... interesting combat. shoutout to the ranger for being the only sane one in this party and being willing to talk things through with Jimjar as opposed to just Violence. this meant that Jimjar finally got to give context to his previous interactions with the bard. . .

so as it happens, two of Jimjar's forms are capable of casting dispel magic, and it only took him two tries to unmask the bard (I set the DC at 18 beforehand and rolled out in the open for both castings, just so my bard player could be certain I wasn't pulling any bullshit to screw him over). it was so fucking !!!!!!!!!!!!!! when the reveal dropped and everyone realized that the Philanthropist inverted was never about Jimjar, it was about Selaros Elpragh (the bard's real name, which I discovered in-session that I had been mentally pronouncing wrong for months) the whole time. the party then turned against him, and Jimjar-as-Tamril wound up nuking him (and healing the fighter, rogue, and ranger) with his radiant breath.

Selaros' backstory is that he was a drow man enslaved by a cruel mistress alongside a half-elf named Elion Brybalar. due to a deal with the setting's god of treachery, Analith, he murdered Elion in order to escape and took on his identity through a reworked version of the Mask of Many Faces invocation. this was a hot minute ago. now, the bard player was thinking about playing the real Elion as a reborn sporeblood sorcerer (a bit of homebrew I cooked up), and I was contemplating a way to introduce him organically. . .

at this point, we're back to what I had originally planned for the session, before the whole thing with Jimjar and the bard blew up in my and the bard player's face. shoutout to whoever it was that came up with this, because it was a blast to run. and, as part of the deal (I was planning this all the way back when I gave the ranger the Merchant inverted during his tarokka reading), I was going to have the hags offer the party a deal that could free them from their curses. . .

Lucien was the party artificer (and had recently multiclassed into wizard), and was the one who wanted the homebrew curse to turn him into a goat man. the artificer is making deals left and right with these hags as everyone else watches in amused horror, and when Nanny Plunk offers to free him from his current cursed form, he accepts. I warn the player out-of-character that the hag's "cure" is going to be turning him into a literal goat. he's like, "okay, I'm gonna roll a wisdom check, and if I roll below a 5, I'm gonna take the deal." he rolls a 4. ultimately, I do not stop him. he made this decision with full knowledge of what would happen next. the party left the goat behind with the hag, and is now looting the stuff he left on the boat (the rogue has already claimed his hat and his bag of holding). the player is now making Another new character, and I sincerely hope this will be the last time he needs one.

okay back to my Jimjar Backstory Bullshit. Aevus is the name of the shapeshifting moon deity, and their priests are often referred to as Vigilants, because I Think That Sounds Cool and it also fits with some of the other naming conventions in the world (some priests of the sun god are called Lightbringers, priestesses of the grave goddess are called Raven Ladies, etc.). so basically, Aevus-as-Jimjar is like "yeahhh, I'm here because.... my own church sent me......" and bullshitted a whole backstory about having been an assassin in the employ of the drow who was saved by the church of Aevus. this is all lies, in fact, but no one can verify it, because Aevus is a god of the surface and they're in the Underdark. before he left (in-universe because the jig was up, out-of-universe because his "greater doppelganger" statblock was not balanced to fight alongside the party), he gave the ranger a blessing that is going to help with the upcoming full moon. somehow. we'll figure it out before next session.

so while the party is in the Dark Mirage (aka the Labyrinth), they free Elion. the fighter violently objects to having Elion travel with them, and it's somehow decided that Elion is going to go on a journey offscreen to figure out how he came back from the dead with fungus powers, and that Sarith is going to accompany him. okay, sure. this is fine. (I'm going to miss Sarith, but oh well. they can always come back later!!)

the fighter (who had been affected most by the bard's manipulations) yeeted his corpse overboard as soon as she could. (little does anyone know that the ex-bard and I are plotting a possible eventual return of Selaros as a deathlock of sorts.... little does anyone know that I'm already doing this with Buppido in Gracklstugh......)

Ront, Derendil, Buppido, and Shuushar are dead. Sarith and Jimjar left, and we're down two PCs. backup characters won't arrive until Neverlight Grove. I think the only factor keeping the survivors together is the children (Topsy, Turvy, Stool) they're still responsible for. oosrp is sad and so am I.

to quote the fighter: "when you lay it out like that in a recap, this was easily our most deranged session, and it's not even a contest."

......yup.

My two orlesian elven kids, Almael and Tamril, I love them so much

C for the OC alphabet soup :)

Thank you!

Here's Christopher Rownik, the protagonist of "Order of the Iris!"

Christopher is a tall wood elf with black hair, white skin, blue eyes, and a thin frame. He's 23 years old and has a very sarcastic, cynical personality. Day-to-day, he wears sweaters, thick denim pants, grey cotton gloves, and a navy blue cap. Occasionally, he'll wear ear piercings and have illusory tattoos on his neck. He often wears a bit of thin eyeliner and eye shadow. He lives alone at the beginning of my story.

He lives in the village of Tamris, which I introduced in a prior post. He currently co-heads a nearby Vigilante's Guild chapter, which I can elaborate on if you want. He attended a renowned arcane university in South Gamel, earning him a sorcerer's degree and a seat on the international Lower Mages' Council. He is well-respected across the west coast of the Ityris (his home continent), but not known well elsewhere.

He grew up in the city of Errhad, Cyrelin. He was born shortly after the end of the Rindir Civil War (more information will come later) amidst an economic crisis. His parents were present for most of his childhood, but he was kidnapped at age 17 and taken to the Wallands as a slave. He managed to fight his way out of slavery but had no way back to his home continent. He stayed in the Wallands for a year until a ship visited the port of Sontau, his contemporary place of refuge.

He stowed away on the ship, sleeping in its cargo bay. The ship was a delivery of fish from the city of Rhines in Westwall. Christopher debarked the ship safely in the port of Rhines. His first goal was to reunite with his parents. He hitchhiked for two-hundred miles across the Westwall border to Cyrelin, where he met the unfortunate news that Errhad had been destroyed. In its place was, oddly, a giant tavern named "The Cursed Cauldron." (Again, more info on that later.)

Leaving him with a lack of direction, he decided to train in the mystic arts. Migrating south, he crossed the border into Rindir, then to South Gamel. He began to attend the Gardum University of South Gamel (GUSG or SGU) as a Sorcerer. He was taught to foster his innate magical abilities and channel them into powerful spells. He excelled in the magical arts. It became his passion and outlet for stress and grief.

Unfortunately, he became overzealous. On one occasion, he lost control of his magic and overused his own energy. Depleting it, he fainted and nearly died. This left him with a phobia of casting from one's own magic energy and fueled his resolve to learn environmental energy casting. This method, however, was not widely taught. He would have to teach himself how to do so.

He stayed in South Gamel for a year. One day he heard a rumor circulating about Tamril, a city in Westwall. He had only been to Rhines before, which was South. Tamril's culture and environment were completely alien to him.

After an arduous journey, he arrived in Tamril. He could not afford to live there, however, so he chose to stay in the nearby village of Tamris. It was small and had a scarce population, but Tamril was only an hour's walk away.

He took a job as a local guild member, gathering information for the Vigilante Guild. He is slowly advancing his way through the guild's ranks, and he's currently the co-head of the local chapter.

That's all for now; Saying much else would give spoilers!

met a guy today who said cantonese stemmed from sanskrit and though ive heard that for other indo-aryan languages (tamril in particular) being the modern variant of sanskrit, that sanskrit is the source for latin/greek (and better than them), and so on, i have never heard before that cantonese - a sini-tibetan language, with no signs of shared linguistic history apart from possible loan words - would also derive from sanskrit. its like the lebanese and their phonecian claim

Playing my first DnD game as a player tonight and I want to throw up -- these nerves are awful! Who'd have ever thought that DMing felt easier?

(Really, the nerves are because I'm an inexperienced female player all about that RP set to play with a bunch of dudes who love fighting and had to be reminded by the GM to think about how their characters would feel after a PC death, so... uh... Hoping it turns out to be an okay fit! The GM really wants more RP, so I feel a bit like I'm coming into shake things up??)

Anyway, while I may be a nervous wreck, my amazing hobgoblin oath of conquest paladin would never feel such a thing! So I'm going to try to channel some Tamril and get ready to fuck shit up.

Two orlesian elven kids having some happy time.

So I drew my ocs Almael (white haired kid) and Tamril (brown haired one) during their childhood. They were best friends and grew up together. After Almael’s magic manifested at age of 9, he was sent to the circle of Montsimmard. After long time not seeing each other’s, they meet again (mostly by chance) in adulthood. At this time, Almael became a Mage working for the Inquisition (which allied with Mages), while Tamril became a secret Agent of Fen’harel.

I got the idea that Tamril has a journal where he keep writing the original story he imagined, as well as everything he has in mind. But as he could get in serious troubles if someone found it (as his words, and also his story tbh, could be considered as very rebellious) he created a whole language to himself so only he can understand it. Of course, Tamril don’t know anything about linguistics neither is a savant of any sort, so he didn’t created something advanced like what Tolkien did for example. But it’s enough at least for him alone. In parallel he also use this language as the language spoken by the elves in his own world

2/16 OC Questions

Another prompt from @the-moon-dust-writings!

Which OC likes to give piggybacks?

Daysha and Taini. Daysha is best with kids and her height lets her do it easily. She’d do it with Cadence too but Cadence doesn’t like the idea. Taini doesn’t give piggybacks much but next to Daysha, she’s best with kids (especially after meeting @thelanternintheforest‘s boy, Tamril). She’d give Tamril a piggyback.

What’s up guys

I’m sad so I’m gonna tell you whose face I’m wearing as my icon

This little bitch’s name is Lenari of Clan Talestor. His skills include digging ditches, weeding gardens, hammering nails, sucking up, and annoying tired old people so much that they join his revolution just to make him Shut the Fuck Up.

He’s terrible. Lenari actually cares about people and for some goddamn reason he’s a great orator, and he knows the Old Stories so he can really appeal to the hearts and minds of the common folk. Did you know he actually believes in everything he says? He doesn’t tell lies to his own kind. This bitch is all of sixteen years old. He’s young, he’s malnourished, he’s tiny, he’s starving, he’s sick more often than not, but he’s idealistic as FUCK and he won’t give up.

Ever.

I mentioned tired old people. Yeah. So he’s got this friend, named Tamril of Clan Bright or whatever, who’s like... a big deal because he survived being strung up in a cocoon of barbed wire. And then ate some of the people who strung him up. That’s how Lenari also got free. Few days later they accidentally meet, and Lenari just starts following him.

Tamril’s like “what the fuck.”

Lenari’s like “hey you’re our people’s great hope, I don’t care if you’re old and tired I need you to join my revolution.”

Tamril’s like “dude I’m nineteen I’m already way past my expiration date. Plus I’m not a hero.”

Lenari says, “I don’t fucking care what you say you are, you’re a hero to the people. Also did you know that we used to live way beyond our late teens?”

A few rounds of convincing later, Tamril’s like “fine I’ll join your revolution if I get to kill assholes and you Shut the Fuck Up.”

Lenari did not shut the fuck up.

Then they pick up, like, a vampire. Who’s sad and broody but also like has the Gen Z “hide it with meme” attitude? He can’t fucking speak. His voice is broken. Tamril hates him instantly. Lenari wants to bang the vampire but the vampire says “no you are a child. Also I’m married.” The vampire’s family is fucking dead and his property has been razed and he’s trying very hard to deal constructively with his grief.

Yeah. So. Lenari frees, like, the whole world from the influence of this society of asshat slavers with a super emo warrior dude, a vampiric meme, some other really important people including this person called Leaf who is fucking awesome, and I dunno, basically every starving child he finds.

The vampire is bisexual. I just thought you all should know. So is Lenari probably. Tamril is just fucking gay and Leaf has no time for any of your bullshit. Or mine. Leaf needs a fucking nap. Actually Leaf needs a stable society with merit-based democratic leadership and what essentially amounts to free food for everybody. Leaf is sick and tired of shit not being fair and they’re gonna fix it.

That’s also kinda Lenari’s line, but Leaf and Lenari agree on a shit ton of stuff. Lenari is also super on board with the “everybody eats” thing. Food good.

Some day I should draw my ocs in a "reverse universes" version.

Feylan (Originally a Startouch Elf in TDP) would probably be an Ancient Elf, perhaps related to one of the Evanuris as it would fits his storyline.

Adahleni and Athrahel (Dalish Elves) would be Moonshadow Elves.

Tamril and Almael (Orlesian city Elves) would be Sunfire Elves because french accents.

Liswen (Moonshadow Elf) would be a Dalish and she would wear the Vallaslin of Sylaise.

A Little Bit About Westwall

Ysthiel (pronounced iss-thee-ell or ees-thee-ell depending on where you are), during the time of Order of the Iris, is only about 800 years old. The world is young, but civilization is very advanced.

Order of the Iris takes place in Westwall, a democratic nation on the west coast of the Ityris. Westwall is primarily home to dwarves, (but the main protagonist is an elf - I'll make a post with all the key characters later). The landscape is mountainous, with deep, sprwaling, ore-rich caverns. The economy of Westwall is gold-centric. Westwall only recently became the economic capitol of Ysthiel after a devastating civil war in Rindir. The capitol of Westwall is Goldhearth, and a few other major cities include Rhines, Gerhana, Mountai, Bleakfar, and Tamril. Reblog with any questions or add your own fictional locales!
