Some doodles of Mórg’s Mesmer ‘Charr disguise’, the excellently “nobody-will-ever-guess-this” Morgan Glimmerclaw!

He makes himself very tall, to the chagrin of the tall people in his life.

Hello I bring you THE BOYS for Oc-Tober as I do a little dance to catch up.

A little ramble about both of them under the cut-

01 - Favourite OC - Mórgacht Gorméan.

Looks at the blog title, looks you dead in the eyes.

Mórg is my canon commander, the character who accidentally became my main. He started out as ‘just my D&D bard Majesty but a sylvari’ but little by little he warped into his own guy. Genuine stupidity became ‘a silly front to hide a sharp mind’, all the red in his palette shifted to pink, etc etc.

I play him pretty close to canon events without much diversion- he’s sort of baby (11 by SotO), he’s fluffed his way through being a naive fool in his youth and through his time with the order of whispers and has been largely shaped by experiencing the world through the lens of crisis after loss after crisis. His main diversion from canon/in-game stuff is the presence of his Co-commander and partner, Varro. They share the blame, I guess.

Mórgacht is, though you wouldn’t find it out easily, sort of a fanatic about his own Wyld hunt. He has a little bit of a crisis every time More Dragon-Related things happen, because he doesn’t know if he wants it to be over or to keep going forever.

This sort of meant he turned his back on the grove kind of immediately - fate of the world in his hands and all- and left some sour relationships Dangling as a result. He’s working on them. He Uh. He. He sends wintersday cards. That counts, right?

02 - New OC - Corcrán

My beloved bullfinch, so new I haven’t even managed to draw his hair right yet.

About 2 years older than Mórg, Corcrán was pretty content to laze around and read, hunt, spar, etc. he had basically no grand plans in life past being a very pretty fop, but got dragged into questing and adventuring by Mórg shortly after they met. They had a tumultuous relationship, both trying to convince the other into wanting things at odds with their natures basically constantly.

When Mórg joined up with the order of whispers, Corcrán felt betrayed first, and then really fucking pissy that he’d ‘lost’ this last argument. He started working to scout in and around Nightmare court lands, and eventually undercover within the court itself.

He wasn’t very good at it, got found out but took the opportunity to turn coat because he was hurting, and angry, and heard on the grapevine (ha) that Mórg, the fucker, was making a name for himself away from the grove.

They reconnect in the jungle of Maguuma where it takes a LONG and tense confrontation for Mórgacht to actually believe Corc is trustworthy. A dog is involved in drawing it maybe. Corc aligns himself with the Pact (and far later the crystal bloom), Mórg loudly denounces any trust in him but also Mórg doesn’t really have many other sylvari ‘friends’ and sometimes they make peace, at least for a little while.

It always ends up in some sort of an argument, though- worsened when Mórg realised that Corc respects Varro far more as Commander than he ever will Mórgacht.

Also some FUN TRIVIA I kind of want to give him a tail. He deff has more claw-y hands than morg.

[morgacht]

Little sketchpage for myself, trying to figure out how to draw Mórg without loosing my mind over details every single time

[morgacht]

With Emery closing in on level 80 I turn my attention to the next blorbo in line; Corcrán, my thief, my maybe-a-nightmare-courtier-but-I-hate-to-be-mean.

Did a very fast doodle of him while I was waiting for the attack on Tarir meta last night

He’s like max height while Mórg is min height, and he’s also got a BROAD build compared to a twig build so…

DAY 05 - Relationships- Mórgacht and Corcrán

“Well if it isn’t our hero of the hour, returning to his humble home-”

Made it to ✨backstory week ✨5 hell yeah

This was actually- drawn because I was trying to write about them instead? And uh. Drawing was easier. I’m not one of natures writers.

But basically after the whole “getting Caldebolg back” debacle, Morg comes back to the grove full of sunshine and light and so happy to see Corcrán again! After y’know, talking to the pale tree at length and leaving Corc knowing he was back and didn’t. Make any attempt to hurry to see him even briefly.

Andy their reunion is soured by his going “by the by I’m joining the order of whispers and leaving the grove, probably for a while, you can come with if you’d like?”

And Corc who has been, like, reasonably patient with all this running off to do heroics so far. Is pretty upset. Like buddy you could have sent a letter. You could have made any attempt to keep in touch. You could have waited a day or four before saying this all.

Mórg really comes off as like. A sweetheart. Especially when standing next to Varro. But I kinda love the fact that one of his first things he did in his short life was irrevocably fuck up the dearest relationship! Idk it’s all very- I’m. I’m not a writer. And I’m not a good enough artist to show it with images. So you’re unfortunately stuck with me doing this… silly doodling…. and my Rambling.

I can’t NOT draw Morg in a maid outfit, it suits him so well and he WILL be running around like this for as long as it amuses me

6 & 7 for Morgacht and Varro! @ratasum

@the-cooler-sidestep plays Varro just so credit where credit is due.

6. Does/would being the commander's LI affect how they're treated?

WELL, Mórgacht and Varro are like. Considered equal; they’ll both refer to one-another as ‘The Commander’, their relationship is known because Mórg is as clingy as the average limpet. Honestly the biggest issue they face is that people will either assume

- Mórg is just a pretty face.

- Varro is just dumb muscle.

So you can get into a really fun loop of ‘hey please talk to the both of us like adults’ when someone makes An Assumption about one or other or them.

7. What kind of dumb rumors pop up/would pop up about the relationship?

Seer came up with “people say Varro is with Morg because she would have eaten a human by now”, which, lmao.

I, of course, have been stumped on this for… days!

Honestly? they hated one another on sight (introduced by Traherne shortly after the battle of Claw Island)

So in that uncomfortable post-HoT-figuring-things-out stage, there was probably a lot of talk about how the relationship was clearly fake/for publicity. Which. Considering their ability to be at literal daggers drawn? Wasn’t… entirely unreasonable.

They got over it tho. I like to think the rumours amuse them now.

So this is probably the second highest energy piece of guild wars fanart I’ve ever done, and it’s brought to you by the fact that the map close in Drizzlewood scared the life out of me the first time

Want to fuss around with dynamic poses, Mórgacht is the muse as ever.

Couldn’t decide what I wanted the setting to be, so kept it vague

#wip #Mórgacht Gorméan #corcrán #didn’t want to draw their outfits (yet) so I simply didn’t #morg has a mordrem alpha jackal and I’ve decided it might as well be canon #Corc was kind of court aligned but fell off it and loosely aligned with the pact #during HoT #so morg is literally tearing his hair out AND avoiding his ex at the same time #anyway there’s like. the imagery of the wounded dog and what happens to it paralleling #Corc himself #Realtalk I am so embarrassed to post oc content with. shudders. dialogue. #Im being self indulgent and that is a good thing damnit

TRAGEDY and woe I had a whole document of sketches of Corcrán and I deleted it instead of saving. There was only one survivor

However to make up for this I started ✨noodling ✨ as I am won’t to do and goDAMNIT Mórgacht

The salads are exes now (Mórg being all ‘I must go… I have a destiny….’ Did not sit well with the relatively chill Corc, who left without someone to soften his sharp edges is pretty mean actually.

Absolutely finishing that bottom left sketch. Morg’s fussy about his appearance and he’ll fuss anyone around him too.

(I imagine my third sylvari is just off to the side with her bone minion and her smoothie like ‘you two really need to see other people’ for as long as it takes Morg to adjust his sights onto Varro)

[morgacht]

I’ve made myself ill with a single drawing of Sapling!Mórgacht. Get a load of his luscious locks. It’s actually a tragedy that he no longer maintains this tragic poet vibe

He plucked his own hair out due to stress during the events of HoT and had to wrangle the short hair life for a long while; it’s long again in the present (he had to FIGHT to grow it out during PoF he was sad and DRY in the desert) but he keeps it tied back and the front of his hair short so as to resist the temptation to pick at it anymore

#Mórgacht Gorméan #sadbh art #when he says ‘I’m fine I’m not damaged by my experiences’ he’s lying he just frames everything he does as a a fashion choice and self-care #sir your ears keep getting bigger and cuter

[morgacht]

A little sketchpage of Mórg and Varro! Varro belongs to @the-cooler-sidestep , and is like 85% of the reason I have tried to draw Charr at all

They’re in love your honour-
