In celebration of recently obtaining elden ring (in the midst of finals season, which ought tell you where my priorities ever lie) i went & doodled all my prev fromsoft characters (instead of studying)

Anyways imma yap

Hiiiiiiii so these are my darlings my naming conventions go like this

>look into the far distance

>wait for the first word to float into my head

>name the character that word

Anyways so in order of creation, backstory and characteristics

Mortal: longsword quality build. my first character ever from dark souls 1. Shes an ever exhausted footsoldier of no reknown who believed that it was the duty of any and all undead to rekindle the flame. She was not particularly enthusiastic about it, but she didnt believe they had a choice (she fell for gwyn's propaganda). While she was friendly and open to chat, she remained distant and gave people the vague feeling they were speaking to someone half-asleep. When she finally made it to the flame, she rekindled it and took her well-deserved rest.

Dies irae: faith build, mace. Easily frightened cleric who quivered like a chihuahua when speaking to anybody. She dreamed of returning home, but alas (never finished the game and she went hollow). She simply didn't have the constitution for the world and might be found shambling about church ruins

Age: arcane and longsword, quality build. She comes from a disgraced noble line, disgraced further upon her failure to rekindle the flame and becoming little more than ash. Upon her revival, she pursues the flame and eventually rekindles it, once more dooming the world to its endless cycle. She was a cold woman who believed it was her duty alone to rekindle the flame and discouraged others from pursuing it. Conversations with her were often short, terse, and overall unpleasant.

Thurible: blunderbuss and ludwigs holy blade, quality build. A chatty anatomist who had long dreamed of visiting byrgenwerth and studying the human condition and how one might transcend their human condition further. She became thoroughly enraptured by yharnam and achieved her goal of understanding the pursuits of byrgenwerth by turning into a slug. She often unintentionally unnerved people despite her friendly and amiable nature. Perhaps it was the way she gave the patented yharnam laugh when discussing her battles like vivisections. Among other things.

Coin: longsword, quality build. A soft-faced peasant woman who made bobbin lace in the nexus hub. On occasion she would head out in pursuit of the dread dragon, but due to the lack of lasting ramifications for her such as death, she never quite understood the sense of urgency or desolation other seemed to feel. She often came off as spacey, as if she drifted through the world with nary a goal nor fear. Shes still making bobbin lace to this day (havent finished it yet).

Charm: longsword and claws, quality and faith build. She is a confessor of the church of two fingers who believes she can sense people's innocence. She is attempting to singlehandedly cleanse the madness and heresy from the lands-between such that she might make room for the greater will to flourish amongst the people and parish of the lands. She senses innocence by doing vibe checks. A lot of people dont pass her vibe check, and that means the greater will is speaking through her and her sword hand by swiftly disposing of them. Conversations with her are pleasantly summed as 5 seconds of intense furrow-browed judgement, followed by either relaxation or swift death. If you make it past the death part, she's an incredibly stern and laconic woman who acts like a human guard dog and has little interest communicating with the lambs she guards (without their asking for it). Overall she has a near-incoherent philosophy that even other confessors side-eye.

Yayyyyyy thats them! Im gonna follow this post up with more drawings (after finals season) i just wanted to yap! :3 i feel out my characters as i play them and because charms been killing a lotta commoners recently (i need those souls, being a quality AND faith build is a lot) i was like yeah she'll kill anyone. Actually she probably thinks shes right to kill everyone. Actually moreover she thinks shes an empath and she can vibe-check people to determine their guilt on her endless list of things they could be guilty of. And thats suuuuuch a fun way for me to play this game, although i do eternally love sweet-natured mortal who only wanted to help the world a lil and doomed it further <3 also i looooooooove the longsword fromsoft games are like me setting a timer with a goal to find a longsword within the next 5 hours god help me. I love it so much a longsword and shield have carried me through hundreds of hours anyways i should go in this run instead of continuing to procrastinate ok bye
