Inquest (or former Inquest) ask game 🐀

For our more morally dubious little rats (feel free to swap is with was for former members)

What is their title and what are their responsibilities?

How well do they get along with their coworkers and superiors?

How and why did they join in the first place?

What would the final straw that would convince them to (attempt to) leave?

How do they feel about the morally questionable goings-on in the Inquest?

What would they be doing if they had never joined?

Assuming they had the necessary approval, what experiment or project would they work on?

How valuable (/replaceable) of an employee are they?

Current Inquest agents: Their least favorite aspect of their job. Former agents: Parts they miss.

What do they do outside of work?

What are/were their long-term goals in regards to being a part of the Inquest? Becoming an Overseer? Performing an otherwise banned experiment? Or just surviving?

How do they feel about the Commander and the whole Elder Dragon thing?

#this could be fun #widdigt is my former inquest

At long last, I can post the finished art! I had been sitting on it for some weeks, waiting for the inspiration to hit to write a short piece to accompany it. Definitely recommend full viewing.

Glittering motes of dust hung suspended in waning late afternoon light shining through the skylights. The upper levels of the City-Beneath-The-Cube were lighter and airier than outsiders realized, but the walls, planters and walkways of planed and etched stone that went down many stories made the whole of the place feel like some kind of precision-wrought canyon dotted with workshops, passages and arcades where the locals and laborers bustled.

(continued under the cut)

Lorr still knew this place well, despite the many years separating his former life and younger self from his current one. It hadn’t changed much, the smells and the noise were the same but he noted that there were new, more effective safety railings in the Public Commons and that the local favorite dive, Pi’s had updated their signage (finally).

The bounty hunter rubbed a hand across his face, closing his eyes momentarily as he let his ears take over, picking up all the sounds surrounding him. He would need to move further away from the Commons to better filter the urban background static. Lorr had just sent out his hawk Deputy to scope out the area in case they got lucky and found their mark momentarily out in the open. Both he and Deputy were already familiar with her, so that wouldn’t be difficult. Problem was, it also meant she’d immediately recognize the hawk for who he was and what it meant as well. A part of Lorr secretly hoped she’d get tipped off early.

Why did I agree to this? It wasn’t the money, not this time. Am I trying to make a point? She nearly got us killed and then ran for it. But I know her. Knew her. I can’t just erase all this history just because of one incident, one indiscretion can I? Maybe this is how I have to get through to her.

He sighed inwardly and braced against his spear as he rose from a crouch, the movement preternaturally smooth and deliberate, like a predatory animal. He looked down from his high vantage as he faced the section of the Undercube that was known to the denizens as the Plexus. It was a network of tunnels, access ‘ports, antechambers, quarries and dwellings that confounded natural senses of direction. Less public-facing, much more closed in and easier to hide. Or lose a pursuer.

The slim asura made his way down the ledge he was using to survey, walking along a catwalk only just wide enough to admit a mid-sized labor golem at most. His ears twitched and he sniffed, feeling the minute air currents of a service tunnel cleverly tucked behind a cleft in the worked stone. Still not certain this was were his mark had proceeded but knowing it would get him into the center of the Plexus quicker, he decided to go for it anyway. Forced to stow his spear in such close quarters, he kept a hand on his dagger as he stalked forward into the passage, the inside only dimly lit by a track of dim yellow quartz-lights along the floor.

Infrared imaging on his monocle made it easy for him to get an idea of the topography of the inner workings of the maze of service tunnels he found himself in, but he was careful to not rely on it solely. He stopped every so often, using his eyes and ears but also a generous amount of intuition to pick the correct course. Chambers became somewhat larger and more spacious as he passed golem foundries, making his way steadily downward. He was becoming more aware that he knew where he was going, it was like retracing steps from his childhood back to the colorful yet rundown living warrens and slums that he grew up in.

She wouldn’t go all the way back there, would she? Lorr was starting to think it wasn’t just him that was trying to make some kind of point.

The smells and noise were subtly changing and it wasn’t long before he found himself in the center of the Plexus. Part bazaar, part manufactory, it acted as the working class nerve center and was a riot of activity, industrial clamor and smells.

He was certain of where he was going now. He didn’t know why exactly she came all the way down here where they had all met in the early days before the nonsense with the Whispers and fighting dragons happened, but he was determined to find where this chase ended. He’d get answers, and if it meant having to fail his mission and come back to his current boss empty handed, then so be it.

i dont know When im going to finish dinking around with colors on this but here's my main three mordrem post-soto :) about to throw down with someone

[indigo-montari]

There is for sure a useful glitch in the Super Adventure Box. #GuildWars2 #GW2

[indigo-montari]

Never posted Sienna's "new" look, whoops.

Post EoD, Sienna no longer has the job of keeping an eye on the Commander. She's still with the Whispers, but on a "as long as she needs it" hiatus / vacation from them. She was thrown into a life of sneaky spy murder from a young age and now she's taking the time to be soft, trust people, and just.... exist. Traveling with Camdinn (male sylvari), the pair are finding new adventures across Tyria while un-learning bad Whispers habits :)

(No, I don't know why she wears cat ears. They're just fun)

[indigo-montari]

alright GW2 folks, be smarter than me. I know the coin looks VERY tempting but...

DON'T GET THIS ONE!! IT'S A TRAP!

get THIS one instead because guess what...

this pack has the coin, too + even more stuff for the exact same price.

it's too late for me, but... may you all learn from my mistakes...

[indigo-montari]

Found this on Google but this is how I imagine the Ash Legion homeland's cities look

A vast underground city with many paths and tunnels leading to many places, the ash legion homelands is secret to all who are not ash and are fiercely protected. This is not the only city as there are many like it, but it is the oldest and largest by far

I feel like there are a lot of decoy towns and outposts

It's been a super busy week for me personally, so to drop a little life sign, here's a style experiment featuring my chronomancer!

[indigo-montari]

It's retro time within the Super Adventure Box!

SHE'S HERE!

Also shout out to @sunsrefuge for letting me know she existed; now she can sit up on the shelf with Rytlock and Aurene.
