Sorry I've been so dead recently! I've got a little project going on that's taking up my art time. Hoping to unveil it soon!
In the meantime, here's my new OC! I made her for a Mass Effect DnD group I'm joining! Her name is Raina Akiyama, she's a human engineer that abandoned her smothering military life to explore the galaxy, settling on Illium following the Reaper invasion.
You can read the full backstory under the cut:
Raina Akiyama was always destined to join the Alliance Military. From the day she was born on an Alliance ship to two parents with a decent military ranking, she spent the majority of her formative years on various Alliance ships or bases following wherever her parents were stationed.
At the time, she could count how many times she has been to Earth on one hand. Her father was from Japan and her mother was from Britain, so she had been to visit family members that she doesn’t remember the faces of. Her upbringing was lonely at times, her parents were busy working and other children were not that common. However, with the absence of people, she found her love in the mechanical instead.
She could always be found tinkering away at some piece of tech she found, sneaking into the engine room to look at the inner workings or pelting the engineers with all sorts of questions. And the Alliance were happy to support these dreams of hers, educating and pushing her towards a career as an Engineer.
There was just one problem, Raina didn’t like the way the Alliance ran things. She was never a fan of the authority, of the training exercises and the expectation to give it everything she had, with instructors and crew members who were always a bit too strict with a child, most likely already seeing the soldier she would become. She always felt trapped, forced into enlisting, because where else would she go? She was raised here, with a line of family all expecting her to join as the next generation as they once did, and she knew very little of the habited planets that dotted the galaxy.
Eventually, when she turned 18, she enlisted officially as an Engineer, continuing her training and enhancing her skills. If there’s one good thing she can say, it’s that the Alliance provided her with almost unlimited funding to tinker with whatever gadgets were put in front of her. She became intimately familiar with both the massive hardware of the Alliance vessels to the weapons and armour the troops relied on. She never fully felt like she belonged, but she could at least surround herself with the things she loved.
Things changed about 2 years later. She was stationed on a small base with an equally small squadron. Something that was meant to be safe, somewhere to train her and other recruits. For the first time in her life she felt like she had friends, people she could rely on and actually talk to, who had her back. Things finally started to fall into place, and she started to feel that yearned-for feeling of belonging.
Then, the raid happened.
A group of bandits attacked the base in the night, where there was minimal activity. They wanted the equipment that they had in storage. It wasn’t even very much, they most likely saw them as easy pickings, and they weren’t entirely wrong. Almost all of her squad was killed in the incident, though in the end Raina’s squad managed to barely win. During the scuffle, a confrontation with one of the assailants left her scarred after they slashed her face with an omni-blade. When she came to in the medical wing of an Alliance vessel, she found herself blind in her left eye.
Her entire world came crashing down. Almost all her friends were dead, that belonging ripped away from her in an instant. She was back to the cold, sterile vessels with people who saw her as little more than an asset, who wanted her back up and running as soon as possible as if a great tragedy hadn’t just occurred. As soon as they were able, they installed a cybernetic eye in the one she lost, patching her up like a broken piece of machinery.
Not even her parents were here. They contacted her as soon as they knew she was awake, but neither of them could leave their post to see her. Something in Raina just snapped. She needed away from this place, away from the military. She expressed her concerns to her parents, but they disapproved, encouraging her to just get better and push on. This was the family way. That just made the need to leave even more prevalent.
She was able to push for her to be medically discharged, quoting physical trauma and PTSD. She sent one final message to her parents telling them she was leaving and not to contact her. She grabbed all her belongings and money that she saved, grabbed the first civilian shuttle she could and started exploring the galaxy.
Over the next few years, she moved from planet to planet, exploring and experiencing and just living. She met so many new people, made new friends and went on her own adventures. She used her skills for work, either taking on odd jobs or temporarily joining a crew, which improved her abilities even further. She began to discover herself more as a person, get better at social interaction and just breathe for the first time. Life was good.
Then, the Reapers arrived.
Once more her world came crashing down, but this time it was different. She wasn’t alone. She had been staying on Illium when the news spread, and it wasn’t long before the Reapers made their way to them. Raina sprang into action, helping wherever she could to help the planets militia fend off the invasion, as well as help the people who had been displaced and evacuated to the planet. It kept her busy, and when the Reapers eventually fell, her positive presence put her on a lot of people’s radars as someone who was reliable.
Following this, she decided to take up a more permanent residence on Illium. They may have fended off the attack, but there was always work to be done. Plus, as a mercantile hub, other planets more affected turned to them for aid. She never found herself short for work, and she was keen to continue to improve her skills with the variety of machinery and tech that passed through. She dreams that one day, she can open her own mechanics shop, and make her role on Illium that much more permanent. Because she belongs.

Totally a normal quarian. Totally not a collector or something…
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Say hello to my mass effect dnd character named Skrill a collector who lost his memory’s and his connection to the reapers. He was saved by a quarian who was also in the same laboratory he was in, they escaped the lab to a nearby colony, because of his new friend he decided to make a modified quarian suit, however too many people think he looks like a deformed quarian in the suit, which he uses to hide his true identity.

Oh man I want to watch my husband play Mass Effect again. I made them play it for me like 5 times in the last 2 years though so they might not agree this time......
Or maybe it will make them want to set up another Mass Effect dnd campaign. I'd be down for that too.

I don’t think I have any Mass Effect mutuals so I’m just screaming into the void but do you guys ever think about how much Miranda and Jack fucking despise each other despite being parallels. Despite being two sides of the same coin. Women who didn’t ask to get made. Experiments, lab rats, weapons before they were ever seen as human. Man.

It's finally time again for some comms!! Here's my 2024 listing for now.
If you're interested in getting a piece done, don't hesitate to reach out to me via DM or directly at [email protected]
I will respond to you within a day usually, and plan to get started on first commissions next week. If you've worked with me before, my turnaround time is currently a bit slower than it used to be, because I work a more time-intensive dayjob meanwhile. Even more so, I will always keep you updated on my progress with your piece and with the queue.
By commissioning me you agree to my [Terms of Service], my DMs are open if you have questions about my process in general or other inquiries. There is no limited number of slots, but I will pick and choose commission inquiries depending on how they fit my schedule!
Here's my [art tag] with current pieces I've worked on!
Sharing is greatly appreciated! ♥

EDIT (29/06/24): I now have raised enough money for my tablet! I can’t believe how quickly this has happened. You’re all so wonderful and kind and I can’t thank you enough 🥹
——-
Hello friends! Here's a long ass post I'm calling a sort-of-birthday-(my birthday is June 18th)-tablet-fundraiser-commission-post
A few days ago I asked around here and on instagram about tablet recommendations and Huion came up a lot. I've checked a bunch of reviews and I've settled on a HUION KAMVAS Pro 16.
Here's the problem:
Tumblr media
it's really expensive
I'm currently working freelance and the money I do have is for household expenses only so I'm offering up commissions specifically to raise separate money for this tablet.
So let's get to the good stuff!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Complicated backgrounds for half and full body commissions will cost a little extra!
WILL DO: ✔️ most if not all fandoms ✔️ OC's ✔️ mild nsfw
WON'T DO: ❌ furries (not my forte, sorry!) ❌ anything depicting racism, transphobia, etc ❌ ships that are p*dophilic/abusive in any way
If you're interested please email me at jazzajazzjazz [at] gmail [dot] com
Thank you for reading! ♥

Mass effect andromeda but make it dnd.
Peebee is a tiefling artificer, Drack is a dwarf barbarian, and Jaal is a firbolg ranger. If you’ve got hcs for the rest of the crew i’d love to see them in the replies/tags. And ik some of you are probably like “why didn’t you make drack a dragonborn!” the answer is I thought that’d be too easy ☝️
