I started drawin' peacock motif wizard Prisca right after Delta sent me his arts of them, I love them I love them. After talking to him abt it, I've partially sorted their backstory:

A vain, long-lived archfae cursed into a mundane mortal form after a coup gone awry, Prisca now has to learn how to survive in this new form and realm. They become insistent on relearning the magic spells that were as simple as breathing to them before, even as the memories of their prior life become murky and faded, dreamlike compared to the day-to-day of life now.

In order to pay for food and boarding, they join up with a traveling troupe of performers as an illusionist and singer, also learning new instruments as they go.

TL;DR peacock motif archfae becomes peacock cursed motif wizard/bard, and they learn the beauty and horror of mortality and art and community.

the peacock-y type transformation Delta drew is, I think, something that happens as they overreach their mortal skill or otherwise attempt to break their curse incorrectly. They can control a bit of that appearance though, and make it a part of their act.

y'ever drunkenly stumble into the Old Quarter at 3 AM and find a cafe open somehow, so you order a drink and the barista mutters some ominous shit at you before dashing around to make it, then you get it and walk out after drinking it you completely sober up and don't even feel tired, so the next day you try and find it to ask the lady what the fuck was in it, but you Simply Cannot because all the lights are out on that entire block?

Yeah, this is that lady. Her name's Lyra Bellamy and she's one of my old OCs, one of the first I made since making a Tumblr blog.

here's her back in 2014 (and scaled up for visibility) vs. now in 2024

HI Y'ALL you ready for the Absolute Brainrot I got outta nowhere for NPCs in a campaign I haven't written? no? too bad, here they are anyways. Art (left, shaved down horns) & Dusk (right, broken horn), the Telodomic Tiefling Two. they're sibwings with a few things wrong with them in different ways. they're generally friendly though!

I'll put More Official Sounding Info under the cut!

Dusk and Art are a rare sort, given that tieflings born and raised in the country of Telodom are few and far between amidst the land's cold climate and general distrust of both divine and demonic influences. The siblings now live in Estellus, reluctant refugees displaced thanks to a civil war between Telodom's ruler and its people. They both more or less work to clear their debt to the "old friends" who helped their escape southward, with Art running a shop to sell their myriad creations and Dusk traveling on various odd-jobs when he isn't contributing to his sibling's stock.

Once specialized in medicine-making and the effects of chemicals on the body, Dusk's studies have veered away from the living and onto the dead and the space between the soul and the physical, the shift from magic to mortal, turning the man of science into a self-taught wizard of necromany. Though why the change in field and to what end, Dusk is too cagey a fellow to give a straight answer. But he is happy to have left behind his fraught and frozen homeland and continue practicing both his physical and magical skills… even when his constant running and lack of rest puts enough strain on his fickle body to warrant the cane he carries around.

Art does not have their older brother's stomach for such visceral things, sometimes literally getting nauseous over it. Sympathetic and anxious, Art prefers craftsman trades to keep their hands and mind busy. Their shop sells many an enchanted accessory and even some paintings, but Art themself has also been known to write, embroider, often taking brief apprenticeships with other makers. Most everything they wear is handmade or otherwise customized with this varied interest in creative arts, and while Art considers it something of a dream come true to have their new life and run their shop, they worry deeply about the fate of the people they left behind.

Songs for Dusk:

Too Tired to Wink by Ludo (I'm sloughin' brain cells every day, smearing the globe, my lobe frontally frayed)

Bloody Nose by Jack Conte (With your tattered clothes and your bloody nose, aren't you glad to be rid of the smell? Not at all? Not at all)

One-eyed Maestro by Kevin MacLeod (royalty-free in-campaign theme song)

Songs for Art:

Scary World by Steam Powered Giraffe ('Cause I'm safe right here, we know who we are, and It's kind of scary thinking of what is out there…)

Unlikely Hero by the Hoosiers (I like everybody, but not everybody likes me! My love's not an island, it's the tip of a volcano!)

Journey of the Featherless by Cloud Cult (I say that it's worth dreamin' just for the dream of it, it's all about passion, it's all about perception)

Padanaya Blokov by Kevin MacLeod (shop's theme song!)
