I haven’t touched WoW in months–but I’m on some new meds and am finally trying to get back into the swing of things!  I’ve learned a lot more about Harper since the last time I drew them, so I needed new art to convey their stoner-hippie aesthetic. Hopefully I can start leveling them again–I love rping them!

#Get a load of that zombie! #THAT ZOMBIE!!!!! #What amazing colors!

🌌: I think Nenkoka as a night elf could be really cool, since she could have more or less the same backstory (parents met in Cenarion circle, grew up constantly on the move, etc) but she would have been barred from druidism and would likely have gone more along the Sentinel path. A lot of Nenkoka’s journey has been guided by her dislike of violence but willingness to resort to violence if it feels necessary. I imagine that if she was taught to view violence and fighting as her job at a younger age, she might be less averse to it-- or she would have gone to her planting & science but without a formal title. Either way, she would have had a less clear path ahead of her if she couldn’t just be a druid!

💕: Oh man, I don’t really do a lot of relationship RPs for any of my characters, but I headcanon that Lex had a casual-but-not-really girlfriend back in Silvermoon who may or may not make a future appearance (probably just in stories because christ knows I am far too broke to multibox & can barely cope with emoting for a character and a pet at one time in-game)

💔: I don’t think this is what this question meant at all (again, because I don’t even dabble in relationship RP at all I don’t really have ships to pick from!) but I think Nenkoka wouldn’t be any fun to play in a relationship. She’s too blunt & externalizing, so she’d ultimately be a shitty partner in a way that would just drag on and suck for everyone involved, even if that “everyone” was just me.

💢: God, Rouille can be so damn self-righteous and martyr-esque. She would fit right in with the demon hunters-- although she wouldn’t know it, since she’d be too busy trying to prove that actually she suffered more so maybe they should shut the hell up.

😈: I made Enzle give up her felhound when Sargaras tried to stab the world (long story, basically Enz went into fel for the specific purpose of getting a “puppy,” but realized when the world was almost destroyed by fel that she was dabbling with things far more powerful than she had acknowledged). It was ultimately a great way for me to get out of a choice I made early on that didn’t make a lot of sense in practice, but shit, it was hard to write my sweetest character losing the thing that meant the most to her.

😂: I once took Enzle to a brothel with her friends back when she worked at a bar-- Enzle is my most innocent & sweet character outside of my literal teenage OC, and she was, to quote Our Lord Of Perpetual Angst, not prepared.

💡: Early on, I definitely used RP as a way to process emotions & fears from the real world-- it was a great tool for that, but it made it hard for me to fully separate IC from OOC and ended up leading to weaker and less fun RP for everyone involved. I’m trying to come back to RP with a healthier sort of emotional & personal distance from it, so ultimately I’m trying to redefine what inspires me (which is maybe one reason I’ve had so much trouble getting inspired recently!) I think what consistently inspires me is that moment of “oh my GOD wait yes that,” when you’re trying to piece everything together to make an OC make sense and all of a sudden it falls into place and the character feels like more than just a thing you’re writing.

📷: OH MAN YOU’RE GONNA GIVE ME A CHANCE TO SHARE CHARACTER ART STRAP IN CUZ I’M GONNA ABUSE THE HELL OUTTA THIS (putting a read more here b/c this post is already long as hell & I have zero self control in re: limiting the number of pictures)

Rouille: (from the lovely @belly-goat)

I have never gotten or made a piece of Rou that captured her quite as perfectly as this piece. I can’t put into words precisely why it’s so incredibly much my favorite-- I suspect that it’s partially because the artist was one of the few people who RPed regularly with Rou before making this, and so that coupled with her talent gave her a better ability to capture the essence of the character.

Enzle: (made by me!)

I think this is probably the best piece of character art I’ve made (it may or may not be framed and hanging on my wall because I’m a NERD) so I gotta show it off a little! Enz is one of my favorite characters to draw personally, so she pops up a lot!

Lex (made by https://ladywyt.deviantart.com/)

Just like with the Rou image, this picture just captures Lex in a way that I’ve found extremely difficult to replicate (although I dearly love all the pieces of her I’ve gotten from my amazing artist friends!!!!) Something in her eyes is just so deeply *Lex,* and I really can’t put my finger on why, but I love it.

Nenkoka (made by Sillain on the WRA forums-- I never got a site to credit, unfortunately!)

Sometimes ya just gotta hang your plants from your horns, ya know? Like if you weren’t supposed to do that, why would you even have horns in the first place?

Thank you for the lovely ask, @latildarommel! Sorry it got so long, but it’s really well appreciated!

🌌Favorite alternate version of the muse?

Ooh! I don’t know if this counts (I’m not in a lot of fandoms, so I don’t have a lot of alternate versions of my ladies), but I like to think a bit about how Rou would be different if she hadn’t chosen to kill herself and become undead. She’s still really young, and I think that if she had given herself more time to mature and consider her options she would have probably come to a better understanding of the downsides of undeath, or at the very least gone into it with less zealotry. Especially with everything in BfA, she’s in a situation where she put all of her eggs in one basket, so to speak, and then the basket caught fire and started shooting said eggs at innocent people. I think if she hadn’t committed herself as strongly when she was barely an adult, she would be able to process everything that’s happening now and find her place in it with a lot more rationality and maturity.

Thank you for the ask, @the-real-arcanist-val!!

[rouilleandcompany]

That sounds super cool though, although I can imagine why it makes writing frustrating at times. I was intrigued by your tumblr description/blurb thing, so it’s really cool to learn more! Thank you for your answer!!

😈Worst thing you’ve ever done to your muse? Thank you for sharing!!!

OH MY GOD DO NOT GET ME STARTED.

The most notable thing is how Lat faked her death and had to spend a year as a Quel’dorei. On one hand, it helped me move away from newspaper RP but on the other, Lat had multiple mental breakdowns regarding why she did things and her identity and inevitably resigned from SI:7. I also had to find a convoluted way to bring her back, which meant ACTUALLY killing Lat and putting her in a new body that looked like hers. Now she has to deal with the trauma of two deaths AND how much it hurt the people she loves.

It’s likely one of my most regretted decisions as a writer. I should have just shelved Lat and focused on Elyza.

#real talk is it socially acceptable that I reblog answers to my asks with commentary #I don't wanna just ask & then bounce but if it's annoying please let me know!!!! I'm not tryna be an asshole! #@ everyone not just latilda #although I'll take it more seriously if the answerer is like yeah dude I don't wanna hear your thoughts on my writing #vs just some follower who wants me to shut up #you feel me?
