I drew Essek!!!!! I just met him in campaign but I do know that him and Caleb have something going on and y'all know I'm a sucker for queer war criminals hehehe. Enjoy the pretty boi 😌
There is no mighty nein modern day no magic trope that I love more than Essek Theyless is the only person they know that can fucking drive.
The translation of him teleporting them in grand feats of impressive magic, to him being the only one capable of a standard adult task… I just love it sm.
He’s a fucking mess but he’s the only adult of the group in modern days mark my words.
Bonus: Essek gives Caleb driving lessons but he can’t afford a car.
Extra extra bonus: Essek never complains about driving Caleb, but only if it’s just the two of them. The second there’s another person in the car he’s swearing it’s the last time, and they could at least give him gas money by the light of the beacon! Caleb thinks this is adorable.
These are some of my favourite moments of Hot Boi Essek. I miss him so much 🥺😩💙
So of course I’m making a fanfic for my own serotonin.
From Parasol ☂️ cuteness to having your new friends show up at your doorstep after being the last seen at a murder…fantastic stuff 🤣. Nervous Essek is so adorable and funny. “Is that cocoa done?” Voice break is a chef’s kiss 💋.
Then we have his first battle against Frost Giants 🤣🤣 the poor baby has his nerdy fisticuffs up.
Not to mention ape Caleb, unintentionally showing their true feelings for Essek 💜.
Lastly, this part of the moments, is how the two wizards from different sides of the board have sins in common. Now hear me out, Caleb is feeling guilty for being manipulated into killing his parents as a victim of Trent. Whereas we know that Essek has a massive falling out with his father that drove his father into the Umbra Gates at Bazzoxan. Not clear-headed or caught off guard, so upon hearing the news. Essek too carries fault for being the result of a parent’s demise.
There may be more dark sins Essek has done or considers sinful but that would be the similarity between Caleb and Essek for me.
