it’s so interesting to me how the sorcerers of raya lucaria and the carians aren’t just magicians, but they’re also mechanical engineers… like raya lucaria has that huge wheel and the marionette soldiers that the sorcerers created, and the carian study hall is designed to flip completely upside down.
and then you look at rykard, who has some of the most advanced tech of anyone in the lands between… it’s likely that he as a carian prince had studied their engineering, and then built off of that knowledge when designing his abductor virgins, weapons, and volcano manor itself. it also makes sense because the sorcerers’ marionettes look very rickety and often malfunction (as if they’re very early forms of technology), while the abductor virgins have a very sleek, efficient performance and a highly ornamented design. it’s a really cool potential progression of technology!!

another elden ring oc sketch reference, my Tarnished this time
Llywellyn, sorceress.
some lore hints under the cut
Llywellyn is a proud liurnian, born in the city of Laskyar.
She always had interest in sorceries as they are seen as an elite art in Liurnia, but her family lacked money to allow preparation to academy and the studies themselves (i hc that it is quite expensive to study in Raya Lucaria bc of all these clothing + staves + crowns + glintstone etc, moreover Raya Lucaria wants you to know the sorcery basis before you start the studies). So, as a teen Llywellyn was hired by the Cuckoos, first as an errand girl, then as a soldier. That was her plan to earn some money and learn the very basis of glintstone arts.
The time passed, Llywellyn was accepted into the academy. Later, she was granted a glintstone crown of Haima Conspectus, and a title of sorceress.
Things changed with Rennala's moon-stars equality ideology. Long story short, Llywellyn had close acquaintances with Graven School members and she was almost openly interested in primeval current as she believed it could ascend (in some ways) the sorcerers to stars. This obviously could not be tolerated by the new academy philosophy, and Llywellyn ended up in prison.
She arose as a Tarnished, guided by grace, though i don't believe Llywellyn is interested in any outcome for the Lands Between. She has little sympathy for Carian Royal family and Elden Lord's title means nothing to her. I think lorewise she'd end up somewhere in the Mountaintops where she could gaze at stars and, perhaps, one day ascend to them.

Sorceress Sellen - Elden Ring
"Tarnished, are we? A wonder you should turn up here. I am Sellen, a sorcerer, quite plainly. Why are you here?"
A sorceress found in Limgrave who teaches you spells.
She is very enigmatic with a very interesting questline around her research at the Raya Lucaria Academy.
