Ruskin "Rook" Ingellvar

my little Mourn Watcher! wanted to draw him in the kinda, signature outfit i ended up keeping him in all game.

in his backstory, Ruskin is a spirit of Grief that came through into the Necropolis in response to a mother losing her child. similarly to how Compassion reflected into Cole, he ended up reflecting the baby / effectively became them, and was subsequently found by Vorgoth when his cries reached the other chambers. because of the young age of his reflection, he doesn't remember being a spirit for most of the game storyline and has none of the abilities - save for being drawn to and "hearing" the grief in those around him. it's Emmrich, of course, who first picks up on the small clues that Ruskin might not be simply "Ruskin", but it's through his relationship with Lucanis that he finally gets the courage to seek the truth.

i want you layin' me down, 'til we're dead & buried on the edge of your knife, stayin' drunk on your vine the angels up in the clouds are jealous knowin' we found something so out of the ordinary

he had purpose once, he was purpose once; thinned barriers, it's just a step away a step away but what waits down there in the deep? a grief calls. and Grief answers.

small excerpt from some of Ruskin's backstory i've been writing out! still a work in progress but this week's prompt gave me an excuse to share a tiny bit.
