I don't have any Charr-sibs. And I didn't include the Konu-sibs because I already had the twins for Humans. Maybe we'll do a round with them for White Day!

It was difficult to get this shot for 9/3—but the tower! I wanna try and do all of these prompts...weapon set themed??? So we've had Sun-Grown and Zodiac and now Snow Garden! Also, Izar's birthday is this week so you're gonna see him again soon. Oops.

And here be Inkeri's infamous older brother, one of The Five Commanders, Izar the Forsaken. I still feel like I can't settle on his armor...Raven pieces aside. We'll see what skins the new year brings.

Aha...ha...ha... You don't say, sir.

I work...better with direction. Otherwise my thoughts end up staying locked up in the brain-pan because brain won't let me put it anywhere. I think I'm also going to start working on the Commander week prompts from a few years ago for them. A slow process to be sure.

Have Izar's new outfit while I get him up to Zhaitan. I spent most of the day on Emrys, though, and am writing his stuff.

So that picture of Lucretia? Was photobombed by a divebombing...I think Odetta? Not sure, there for the hud-hidden screenshot and gone on the next! Kinda like how I kept missing any shots of @i-mybrunettelady's Alysannyra! (I have like. Two shots of her. And none of them are front facing with hud-hidden.)

Child of Raven, he was initially a thief, rather good at it too. Skirted on the wrong side of things, just a little bit—he'd never side with the Sons of Svanir. Still, can't say his family was proud of this path of his, they often denied any claim of relation. (Hilariously, this has reversed itself.) The only one to keep contact with him in his early years was his aunt-in-law? His older sister (Asta) married into Moda the Quick's family—the current speaker of Raven.

Moda was the one that found him after he initially died, Raven guided her to him with the knowledge that the future needed him. Izar had been more or less wandering about in the middle of a winter storm after waking up again. His brain was foggy and clouded with Legends and the Mists; he was left trying to sort it all out.

He doesn't speak about how he initially died, possibly not his proudest moment. There was a rather complicated puzzle that hid an important relic to Raven, put there by a Svanir Shaman with a horrible wicked streak. At first, Izar was able to traverse the passage ways, then the chill of frostbite slowly overcame him, enspelled. (Yes, he froze to death.) But his last moments had him grasping the relic—a cloak of Raven's feathers. Somehow he was removed from the puzzle, prize in hand, and came out physically changed.

Moda had the cloak remade, at Raven's insistence, into Izar's helm and gauntlet embellishments as well as a few of them woven into his mantle. The rest reside in the Hall on display and worn only by her for special events.

Eir's attention rolled his way after his return to Hoelbrak with Moda and the feathers, his changed appearance and abilities alone drew a lot of it, to be honest. The Legends that he joins with most times are honored and powerful followers of Raven. There is another Legend that joins with him later on, but that's spoilers~

We already know Izar thinks Destiny's Edge is a bunch of dumb-butts for letting their friendships and guild be torn apart as it was. Yeah, you can get angry and sad, but seeing as these were all "human" mistakes, their bonds should have helped them through. Oiba seemed painfully shy almost to him, nervous glances and constantly burying her fingers in her pets' fur. Emrys and Nilo were having animated conversation with a distracted Nicoletta sometimes joining in. And Tarsicia looked like she would have rather been anywhere other than at the gathering of mentors.

Emrys was curious about his new partner's abilities, as was Tybalt; seeing as Izar was still trying to figure it out himself, they all spent time testing him. And he ended up learning quite a few things from Emrys and his abilities. Not to mention it was refreshing to slip into semi-familiar shoes again, having been a former thief himself.

Tarsicia was a very proud Charr when they first got to know each other. And like him, there were things about her abilities that were unusual and unknown to her. Oiba was enthusiastically curious about his connection to Raven and the other Spirits; while Izar had a good time learning how to care for the smaller forms of the Spirits. The twins he didn't really get to know until the end, really—the story dungeons don't throw Eir and Logan together, oddly—and he found them…more similar to Raven than he would have thought. Apart they had their own personalities: Nilo was an absolute charmer and left Izar blushing and questioning more than once. Nicoletta and the conversations he had with her often left him contemplative and looking at things from new angles. But together they were mischievous and constantly getting themselves into trouble, but also creative enough to get themselves out of it, too.

Claw Island was a bit of a nightmare for him, and not because of the Risen. Horrifying as they were, the true horror for him lay with the Risen dying again. Instead of the quiet sweep of a bird's wings—Raven's, he likes to think—it was a loud rushing noise he associated with a violent whirlpool. He had started to hear the noise as of late, but until now it was a random and sporadic noise. Losing Tybalt didn't hit Izar as hard as it might have hit Emrys, and he saw first hand how hard leaving Forgal left Tarsicia.

Trahearne…he ended up picking his brain a lot, especially about death in general. They had a ton of late night conversations about Izar's abilities, Emrys sometimes joining in. Izar never considered himself a scholar, but he'd also admit in the same breath that he could spend a lifetime studying death. Given Trahearne's years of study, Izar looks up to him but also remembers to keep from putting folks on a shelf.

Zhaitan was just the first step to Izar, he's of the wide-mindset that they all need to go at this point—awake or not. Who next? Well, they're not quite ready for crafty Kralkatorik or manipulative Jormag, so his choice is Primordus. Izar's pumped, he's ready, and then the magic-wave hits him like it hits the others. He found himself being able to take the kinetic energy from things around him (especially if they were headed towards him) and was able to use the power himself. (As things go on he can share this with his guild mates.)

Putting a note here: not to scale. Tarsicia is shorter than Izar by a good two feet. But hey! We got the whole guild in one shot! Ignore the wiggly stuff at the bottom. That's my poor attempt at hiding their cut-out feet. And who knew! The screengrab of the select screen that I got came in handy!

I'll be having some time off in the next week so I'll be working on trying to finish Nilo's facts and then work on Nicoletta's. They'll probably be posted separately? Just so there's a post dedicated to each twin. And then Emrys will follow it up!

Me trying to figure out Izar's new little "power" from being hit with death dragon magic. Maybe it's necro in nature???? Dead sensing... Maybe take from how ESO has necromancers notice dead bodies?? They have this. Stupid ass glow on them. Like not loot glow. A spike of light. I'll have to find my screenshots.

So Tarsicia is going first! /o/ Followed by (either a new poll or) Izar, Oiba, the twins (who tied, hilariously) with Emrys bringing up the end! Hopefully I'll have some stuff for her out soon as I've been laying out some groundwork for them as a whole.

Got tossed the Incorrect Quote Generator and tossed the Five Commanders world onto it. Here's some of the results! Some of these may...or may not actually be canon. Or close enough.

Inkeri: Did you just call me a shrimp, you asshole?! I'm still growing, dammit!

Nilo: [Turns on the kitchen light] Oiba: [Sitting at the table, eating bread] Nilo: It’s four in the morning. Oiba: Turn the light back off.

Emrys: Sorry I'm late, I was doing stuff. Mottut: YOU PUSHED ME DOWN THE FUCKING STAIRS!

[Inkeri sneezes] Emrys: Inkeri, are you sick? Here, let me wrap you in a blanket and hand-feed you some warm soup while singing you a lullaby! [Izar sneezes] Emrys: Oh my god. Shut the hell up.

Oiba, T-posing in the doorway: Greetings, Emrys. Emrys, not looking up from their coffee: Good morning, problem child.

Oiba: Get on my level! Nicoletta: Unfortunately, to "get on your level" I'd need a boat trip to the Mariana Trench and a pair of cinderblock shoes.

Mottut: Do you have a second to talk about the environment? Oiba: Do you have a second to eat my farts?

Nicoletta: Why is there blood everywhere? Izar: I may have aggressively poked someone with a knife. Nicoletta: You stabbed someone?! Izar: No, no. I aggressively poked someone with a knife.

Izar: I can't imagine what Nicoletta is planning. But I can tell you two things. We won't like it and it won't be legal.

Oiba: I want a bf. Emrys: Do you mean best friend, boyfriend or bread feast? Because you’re being really vague here.

Nicoletta: Are you packed for the trip? Nilo: Yup. Nicoletta: Then where are your bags? Nilo: All I’m bringing is a good attitude and a sense of adventure. Nicoletta: A change of underwear might be nice.

Emrys: As top in this relationship, I think we should- Nilo: I can't believe you're pulling rank on me.

Emrys: Come on Nilo, do it for our friendship. You can't put a price on that… Nilo: Yes I can, dear. Fifty dollars.

Mottut: I love you. Oiba, not paying attention: What was that? Mottut: I said I’m selling you to the zOo-

Mottut: A pessimist sees a dark tunnel. Emrys: An optimist sees light at the end of the tunnel. Tarsicia: A realist sees a freight train. Izar: The train driver sees three idiots standing on the tracks.

Nilo: Being gay isn't a choice. It's a game and I'm winning.

Emrys, learning how to drive: What happens if I press the gas and the brake at the same time? Izar: The car takes a screenshot. Nilo: Please pull over. I’m driving now.

Nilo: You’re my best friend, I would do anything for you. Izar: I want you to eat 3 meals a day and have a decent sleep schedule. Nilo: Absolutely not.

Also I've figured out the kids' ages through all this.

The oldest is Tarsicia, having been born in 1306. So she's 19 at the start of it all and is currently 30 years old.

Next in line is Izar, born a year later than her so 18 and now 29. His sister Inkeri is technically younger than everyone else aside from Emrys, she was born in 1313 so when Izar went off to do all this she was only 12 and is now 23.

Twins Nilo and Nicoletta came about in 1309, so they're 16 going on 27.

Then there's Oiba at 1310 with her story starting at age 15 and she's now 26.

Emrys is the "baby," of course, being born in 1325 with the start of everything, so as of 1336 (the current year) he is 11 years old.

Did not realize both Ikniu and Baroosh would be on this mission. Pleasantly surprised!
