Couldn't stop myself from sketching a ghoulie boy Fallout OC. His name is Gasket and he's literally the worst. Yes he might eat people - but he'll fix your gear real good. Mind the drool, he might be a lil feral.

And yes, he did eat a vault dweller years ago and stole their fit.

For context: we were talking about Pooka and their depiction and it was brought up that there was some weird art of Pooka with tits out there.

so I drew Hilda's Pooka but with tits. That's it that's the reason this masterpiece exists.

happy april fools , here is a storyboard doodle of the pooka that @mmothmanners did

I drew some indulgent fan art of my boy Ris and @garnetdawn's man Horath. I just think they're neat.

For the five year anniversary I drew my players' characters for our finale arc. We're in the home stretch and so I made them tarot themed cards as a lil gift to show my love for them and the stories they weave.

The Lich is Back 💀

My boy Aeron and his #1 Squeeze (Henchman) The Maw in their final looks tm I drew this ages ago and was finally able to show it off as my poor intrepid heroes must fight for their lives against The Maw and Aeron's Machiavellian designs.

It's V-Day and you know what that means?

A screenshot redraw of one of my favourite moments of Pride & Prejudice (jk the whole movie is my favourite).

I had to draw Ris'daer quoting the confession scene.

[mmothmanners]

Shared him over on twitter, so now I share him here.

It's Ris'daer - but make him baby. He also attracted many flumph as a little guy, and his caretakers hated it.

I had to draw my boy Ris'daer alongside the Bards I've played in D&D games!

Left to Right: Dawne, Ris'daer, Wilaver, IDE

So I'm new to baldur's gate/DND lore, do you think that you can explain the deal with a drows red eyes in association with lolth? Cuz I also have an idea for a drow who left the underdark and no longer reveres lolth, so what do I do for his design & subrace? What did you do for ris?

Howdy Anon! So from what I remember / what I dug up of drow lore (which is all over the place in terms of concrete answers lmao) - the red is typical for them. If they've got blue/purple tinges, there's more to their ancestry? Like humans, other elves, etc. It's all very vague.

I did for Ris'daer what I do for all my characters - I just do what I think looks cute and make up the rules as I go. I usually try to stick to canon lore as a basic foundation, but like aesthetically? Gloves are off and I go nuts. Ris'daer's eyes were based off 3D glasses with Red and Blue. I just made the blue lighter and have him joke that 'the printing press ran out of colour' when creating him at that exact moment.

At the end of the day, just have fun with your stuff. It's your character, have fun!

Sometimes you just gotta doodle your favourite little guy all night.

Ris'daer being extra, saucy, annoyed, and an asshole. All on one page.

A/N: The character of Ris'daer is not one of mine but from the extremely talented @mmothmanners here on tumblr. I absolutely adore their art and OCs and am currently (constantly) in a writing slump so I’m now trying to get out of it by writing about things I’m obsessed with. In this case: Ris’daer. Because I somehow got way too attached to this man. Good job. I think way too much about him. So you’ll probably end up getting random short stories about him and some of my OCs. Mostly my OC Talon cause he’s my baby but I’m really just ranting at this point. 

I hope everyone, and especially @mmothmanners enjoys this silly little thing, honestly it won't be too great but I gotta create something

Becoming friends (?)

Possibly pt.1 of many

~ ~

Talon wasn’t quite famous for being the most open person. Sure, he didn’t like most people and maybe his first idea of interaction was violence more often than not. But he prided himself on not discriminating between anyone. Age, Gender, Race. He treated everyone the same. 

So rest assured that the reason he didn’t like the bard wasn’t that he was a Drow but because the music was just annoying. Or maybe he just wasn’t able to deal with the bard’s undeniable enthusiasm for practically…everything.

It was late at night when Talon had put down his bags in the furthest corner of where they were camping, laying his head down on his bag, closing his eyes and tried to sleep.

Tried.

At least until he heard steps and someone flopping down next to him.

“Talon.”

Talon opened his eyes. “Bard.”

“I think I finally cracked it.” Ris’daer spoke with his usual happy mood that was, in Talon’s eyes, completely misplaced at this time and in this situation. 

Talon sighed quietly, realizing he wouldn’t get much sleep anymore, sitting up. “How interesting, Ris’daer. Please. Enlighten me”

Ris’daer completely ignored the obvious sarcasm. “I…” he made a dramatic pause. “Wrote you a song.”

“You wrote me a what now?”

“A song. Come on. I’m a bard. It’s what I do. And I feel like you have a lot of stories to tell.” he was quiet for a moment. “Even if you don’t actually…tell them.”

For multiple seconds Talon just looked at the Drow but he really did seem to be serious about it. “Why are you wasting your time like this? We have more important things to do.”

“I forgot you were allergic to having fun.” Ris’daer chuckled. 

“Some of us just can’t afford to–”

“Oh boohoo. I’m so dark and edgy. I don’t need friends. I stay alone in the darkness.” Ris’daer lowered his voice, performing a, not so inaccurate, mockery of Talon.

“...are you done yet?”

“Depends. Are you gonna let me play the song?”

Talon looked over what he could see from the camp, considering if he had some way out of it at this point. “Fine.” he eventually decided. “Just get it over with quickly.”

“No can do. Art needs time.” Ris’daer smirked.

“You can shove your art up your–”

“Shh. Don’t be so vulgar.” Ris’daer chuckled, playing a few notes on his lute and then properly starting to play a song, soon chiming in with some light singing.

And…it wasn’t like Talon liked it. 

Objectively it wasn’t bad.

When the bard finished with the song, he widely grinned. “Huh? Have I made you speechless?” 

Talon quickly focused back on the situation. “Not too bad. Although it does shine a bad light on me.”

“Oh, come on.”

“Who will want to hire me if they think I'm some big softie?” and for a moment Ris’daer could swear that he saw a small smile on the tieflings face.

“You are a big softie.” he grinned. “But fine. Next time I'll write one about you bathing in the blood of your enemies.”

“See that sounds more up my alley.” this time Ris’daer was sure that Talon was smiling even if it was just a little.

“I’ll start right up with brainstorming. How about you tell me about your most bloody battle, huh?” He hoped to get at least one story out of Talon.

Talon looked down at the Drow. “Nice try.”

“...damn I hoped that would work.” 

For a moment Talon was quiet before speaking up again.  “Did I tell you about the time I accidentally took down a cult?”

Immediately the bright shine that Ris’daer got when he was excited about something showed up again. “That’s what I’m talking about! Tell me everything!”

Okay.

So maybe Talon didn’t exactly hate the Drow.

And maybe he would be able to befriend the bard. He just wasn’t sure if he would ever be able to befriend the lute that came with it.

Heyy :))

First of all I'd like to say that I absolutely adore your art and OCs. Like I genuinely haven't been attached this much to a character in a while

I thought I could quickly ask if it's okay with you to use your characters in some way? Like write stories that include your ocs and maybe own oxs or something like that?

It's totally okay and understandable if you're not fine with it obviously but I thought asking never hurts :3

I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day <3

So I generally don't have problems with that sort of thing. Art, fics, etc. Go for it! As long as the character isn't doing anything vile or, and this is a personal preference for myself, anything to do with pregnancy, I'm good with it.

Share with me when you finish things too! I love seeing what people create for me (makes me extremely happy ngl).

Ris'daer's Approval Body Language ™️

I've seen a few others do this so I really wanted to try my hand at it for my boy.
