@of-forossa​ unfollowed him and Simon will never forgive nor forget. He’s permanently aggro’d and shooting arrows at a ridiculous pace as we speak

#dw everyone #simon knows who the real homies are #also i hate that i put actual effort into this #if you recognize yurie's portrait it IS from a piece that airayart #did #and i can send a link if you want the full body

Yurie the Last Scholar from Bloodborne. One of my favorite characters from the game. I’m getting more into fully digital work.

Bonus detail:

[sixish]

I was rereading The Paleblood Hunt by Redgrave because the first time I read it I didn’t have much knowledge of the old hunters DLC, but anyway this is just going to be about Lady Maria because I’m gay.  @percysonjack @airayart​ Line your brains with eyes with me.

First, apologies for formatting and if the cut doesn’t work and people have to power scroll past this- I’m on mobile.

I’m going to try my best to summarize first because I assume most people are normal and don’t go balls deep and obsess over the lore.

So basically there’s a giant labyrinth under Yharnam full of secrets. The school of Byrgenwerth sent scholars down there to investigate and they found Old Blood (assumably Ebriatas). The school splits down the middle with half believing they shouldn’t mess with it and seek to ascend through insight, while the other half wants to use old blood as a means to ascend. The blood users go off to create the Healing Church as well as the first Hunters; this includes Gherman and Lady Maria.

Far away, in a Fishing Hamlet (that’s actually a whaling town, and might even be where our Hunter is from but that’s a whole other can of worms), a giant creature is in the sea. Assuming a beast, the people of the town manage to kill it, but not without great sacrifice to them. Eventually, the carcass of whatever they killed washes up on their shores and it turns out to be a Great One— Kos.

News spreads and Gherman and Lady Maria set off to the Fishing Hamlet. They butcher everyone there, splitting their skulls in half searching for eyes to replicate the success of Byrgenwerth’s ascended Vacuos Rom (a student, presumably, whose brain was lined with eyes from the great ones). This is evidenced on the fact that skulls from the Fishing Hamlet can be found with scratches on the inside. Another thing of note is that the townsfolk are called kin (of Kos?). At the end of their massacre, they find the body of the dead Great One and find an intact baby inside.

Now, Lady Maria is of distant noble blood from Cainhurst Castle, but she rejected her peoples use of vile blood in pursuit of great physical strength and knowledge. Her weapon rakuyo relies heavily on dexterity.

We find her “corpse” in a clock tower blocking the path into the Fishing Hamlet, with a slit throat. She says to us “A corpse should be left well alone... oh I know very well how the secrets beckon so sweetly.” We all thought she was talking about herself, but she was talking about Kos! The secrets/insight of the Great Ones is alluring, but she warns us of the consequences as she once lived.

At some point she must have regretted the mass slaughter she and Gherman did because we find her weapon thrown deep into a well. The townsfolk can be heard begging for care from Maria or speaking fondly of her so she must have, in an effort to make amends, tended to them in the last moments of her life. But unable to save them, they turn into pseudo beastly/great one kin, and she commits suicide in the Astral Clock Tower. In her death, she guards the place she committed her most violent act of atrocity in.

Been in an art rut lately due to a lot of variables in life. But this little activity helped with getting me back into the flow of things. Setting my screen to grayscale, having friends give me mystery color palettes to work from then seeing what I've made! Lot of fun with this, so here's a few pieces I made.

October Journal °5 Nightmare I have rather scary dreams sometimes, I try to write them down in the morning, since I sometimes get good ideas for stories. This is one I want to revisit and expand on in the future.

Kreske Taya

Was feeling nostalgic and wanted to draw my first dnd character from back in the day, Kreske Taya, doppelganger spymaster. I don’t know what ever happened to him in the end since I had to leave the campaign, but I still love drawing him time to time.
