i was making my strixhaven party in the sims to fight the symptoms of withdrawl (we have not played in months because our fighter's work won't give him saturdays off again already :(((( ) and while i was in the middle of working on my character, azazel, my brother who's the DM (what the hell is your problem @datfatnerd) walked by and said "why does that guy look like quentillius if he was more of a loser"
I CANNOT CATCH ONE FUCKING BREAK OH MY GODDD 😭
I AM BEING HATE CRIMED UNDER MY OWN ROOOOFFFFF 😭

we have a very nice party member who is a warforged bard but he often says wild shit, and here is Felyx telling Quentillius to maybe ignore him because he’s kind of weird sometimes and needs more socialization.
(moments before Quent asked Felyx on a date so uuuuuuhhhhh that happened)

Aaand this artwork is done, yay!
This is a dnd character I played in a Strixhaven campaign last year! Human artificer and Lorehold student, goes by he/she pronouns. I'm not sure how to translate his name correctly (I wasn't playing in english), I guess it's El? Yel? (with a sofl L at the end) Stormsong. Anyways...
This was actually my first dnd campaign (I participates in handful of writting-based roleplays waaay back in like 2010-2014 and played one session in warhammer 40k campaign which I didn't like because I know next to nothing about the setting but my friend dragged me there).
So, few notes from the campaign itself:
In the first year Larine almost died from exhaustion because she took all her free time for extra practice before the water-dancing club had a large performance on Rose Stage (which was it's own shenanigans to find someone who can cast and controll the huge mass of water to give us, like, temporary magical pool on stage).
Also in year 3 Larine won the magical fashion show and ended up working as designer later on.
My character and Aurora almost killed each other. Not like that, they were besties and tried to handle some issues with Aurora's dhampir hunger that was triggered by her falling in love with another NPC and, well, I'll just say it was one of the most emotional moments in the whole campaign and the only time I cried. Eventually DM decided it's too much and we got a happy ending (both survived) but damn.
Also right after that my character got in trouble because, well, she took so much damage she had to go to the hospital, but he tried to convince people that's just study experiment went wrong and not a dhampir bite so she got scolded by professor for allegedly messing with necromancy.
Quentillius tried to hit on Jawenish (unsuccessfully) and eventually ended up dating my character instead. They married after graduation and opened a shop selling magical music instruments.

❛ some risks are worth taking. ❜
Medea nods her head slowly as she picks up her parchment and quill while the rest of the students in the class were already filing out. She had been on the fence about trying for the lead in the upcoming play her club was performing. It was a role outside of her normal repertoire and she had been having trouble trying to get into the mindset of the character. Several of her clubmates expected her to try out for the role wanting her to branch out a bit more and she felt like she couldn't turn them down. So she had been paying little to no attention in class this afternoon and Effy had sort of picked up on that while she was staring off into space and been the one to knock the bard from her stupor.
"I can see what you mean," she replies looking towards the lightless, "sometimes the risk is worth the reward but darlin' I'm a little nervous. What if I really blow it, Quentillius won't let me live it down and I don't wanna disappoint him or Rubina neither."
She can feel something tighten in her chest but she remembers her guardian's calming voice as he used to talk her through her stage fright. A breath comes a bit shaky and she shakes her head to clear away unwanted thoughts, she's a bard for gods' sake if she's not confident in her abilities then what else does she have. Effy might be right though, she's taken plenty of risks and look how they've paid off. She's here standing in Strixhaven fulfilling her dream and that still boggles her mind from time to time when she wakes up in her dorm room and not back home among the other dancers in the troupe. It was countless risks that got her to where she was today so what's one more on the pile.
"No, you know you're right darlin'! I'm a bard I've trained for this kind of stuff, I can do this, and if I can't this time I WILL next time" Medea shoves her things into her bag and turns taking both of Effy's hands in her's quickly, "I'm gonna do it! And if I get the part you'll be the first to know, thank you Effy."
She releases her hands and makes her way to the door but before she heads into the hallway she does wave at Effy over her shoulder feeling a bit more confident and with a clearer head.

Pearl - ✨ ❤️ ✂️ 🍀 🍩
@stir-fried-kilometers KITTY TIME
✨- How did you come up with the OC’s name?
I was thinking about tabaxi naming conventions in conjunction with the idea of a leucistic lion design; white/pale fur amongst all the sandy fur of your average lions, like a pearl found on a beach. hence her full name, Pearls in the Sand, and the shorter version, Pearl!
❤️ - What is one of your OC’s best memories?
Arriving on the Strixhaven campus for the first time and stumbling into what would become her core friend group over the course of orientation. She loves her friends so much!!!!
✂️ - What is one of your OC’s worst memories?
The realization in her childhood that her poor eyesight meant she wouldn't be able to train as a warrior like her sisters. Later in life her eyesight would be corrected as part of her warlock pact, but she still feels a pang in her heart for that particular element of her culture in which she was unable to participate.
🍀 - What originally inspired the OC?
I played one of her big sisters, Sky, and during that campaign slowly developed Sky's extended family, including Pearl, who was always meant to be the baby of the family and the 'special' one, with her physical appearance being unique amongst her siblings, and her being the only one who excelled in magic.
🍩 -Who is your OC’s arch-nemesis or rival?
It WAS Quentillius, but the funny thing about the arch-nemesis you make during orientation is sometimes you end up discovering he's a little sopping wet kitten of a man with a huge crush on you and now two years into college you're dating him OOPS. Her current arch-nemesis is her own ability to pass tests I think, she's failed a few exams now and it's really stressing her out. (Roll20 let Pearl pass her exams challenge)

Imma need you to expand on how you almost got Cuntillius to join a cult
First of all: CUNTILLIUS??????????????
anyway
Very long story (somewhat) short:
My 4ft tall lizardfolk bard (was meant to be a joke but errmmmm i gave him emotions and it was downhill ever since) showed up out of nowhere, picked a fight with him for no reason (i boo'd at him during orientation because i thought it was funny, and to be fair, it was), joined the play actors out of spite, proceeded to get better at performing than him (my character didn't even like performing pre-strixhaven that much anyway (yes despite being a bard. even longer story)), and became better friends with all his friends than him.
Quentillius got shown up in pretty much every category by this fucking defect of a lizard and well ummmmmm he broke a little bit and Archavios's """""favorite""""" cult, the oriq, saw him fighting for his life and went "bet". (Also important context: the druid and wizard were assholes to him too. and they like, threatened his life frequently, and made him permanently afraid of frogs. so they're 100% a part of the problem too, i will not accept the slander that i was the only problem. also my character has at least tried to mature from the experience, those two ain't do shit. the wizard might've gotten worse actually).
Luckily our DM isn't completely sadistic and quentillius didn't join the oriq. We found out what was going on because the other three party members noticed he was acting wack and the druid decided the correct decision was to break into his dorm and use meld into stone to hide in the wall and spy on him. y'know. like a sane person.
My character tried talking to him while also trying not to have him realize we know and I kinda fucked it up ermmm but also i've said it before and i'll keep saying it: just because my character has a charisma score does NOT mean i do.
anyway we all eventually talked to him (happened right before the mage hunter fight 2nd year. my DM just added onto that fight because he hates us (i am joking i think)) and when quentillius realized that maybe this is not a good idea and tried to say no, the oriq recuriter charmed him and we had to beat the hell out of them and all of us kinda got interrogated by the deans... which is fair.
and like 9/10 in game years (moved onto a homebrewed second half) later quentillius really doesn't give a shit anymore and my character has continued to never get over anything that has ever happened to him ever
so things are going great.

Quentillius A. Melentor III
Dislikes:
Shar
Rosie
Extra:
Eiraden was born half Movanic Deva (father; Eremiel) and half Human (mother; Ardan). On her 7th birthday, both her father and mother were slain by the Goddess of Darkness, Shar, who she was then abducted by. Eiraden lived under Shar for the next ten years of her life. Following her evil lifestyle, thus turning Eiraden into a Fallen Aasimar, unknowingly.
As Eiraden grew, her father, who had made it to the Prime Material Plane before dying, was able to briefly talk to her from his plane, but that's all he could do. On the eve of her 17th birthday, her father, being a Movanic Deva, was once again able to manifest a corporeal form. With this, he was able to help her escape from Shar once and for all.
Shar still speaks to Eiraden and threatens that she is going to get her back one way or another. Her father, fearing this, sent Eiraden to the safest place he could think of, Strixhaven, a place full of magical beings. He figured so many in one place would keep Shar at least physically away for now. She has also been given an eyepatch blessed by the god Denier who she worships. The eyepatch holds back Shar's attachment to her and her physical corruption is stopped while it is on.
Eiraden is a student of Lorehold and works as a book shelver at the Biblioplex
Eiraden is dating Quentillius A. Melentor III, a student of Prismari at Strixhaven and has a familiar named Varian who is usually in the form of a weasel. She is rarely seen without these two
Eiraden knows the languages Celestial, Common, Draconic, Elvish, Primordial, Undercommon and is in the Dead Language Society at Strixhaven
