#exu calamity

A fun fact about EXU Calamity-

Working on these had me stressed and overwrought, mostly because I was worried that I wasn’t gonna pull of the Look, and the aesthetic would be shakier because of me.

To deal with that, I made up a character to be the in-universe mosaicist who was designing and crafting these panels of the Ring of Brass. Every time I messed up or my hand slipped and I had to go back a step, I imagined him dropping a tile, muttering a curse, and trying again. His name was Florent, he was a journeyman artist and craftsperson in Avalir, and he was my coworker for about a month.

All the Critical Role Mighty Nein and ExU fanposters I've painted over the years. If I had to count the hours I spent on these in total… It's a lot ✨🫣

the opening of Calamity | the opening of the Ravening War

I can't remember if I ever actually posted about this, but...

Ever since Matt first described the Judicators and their masks, I immediately thought of the descriptions in Calamity about how the betrayer gods basically used up, corrupted, and disfigured their clerics as basically just belief-power batteries. I have to watch [Calamity] again for the actual description but I remember it being gnarly.

I just... have a gut feeling that's basically what the Judicators are. The weapon of the betrayer gods turned against them. That despicable method used in the name of good. Carefully guarded and limited, but not hidden or eradicated because it's too useful. Too powerful to just let die out.

I feel like... If anyone ever successfully removed one's mask... these respective followers of "good" and "evil" would be indistinguishable.

Worked on this while catching up on Burrow's End, and she swept me away yet again! [hi-res]

Laerryn Coramar FUCKING Seelie fucked up those Primordials SO GOOD that the land where they had been is moving and boiling and shifting over a MILLENNIUM LATER don’t you DARE look at me and tell me there has ever been a more powerful arcanist than the fucking Architect Arcane of the floating City of Avalir who near-single-handedly prevented the total annihilation of Exandria by modifying her INCREDIBLY COMPLEX AND ADVANCED AND POWERFUL MAGICAL DEVICE while her city FELL FROM THE SKY and the people she loved most in the world died defending her. The Shattered Teeth ARE STILL FUCKING MOVING. FUCK.
