#necromancers are sweethearts

[lelianasbong]

trying to decide if it would be funnier to romance cassandra as a reaver or a necromancer. i want her in the chantry saying 'please god send me an angel. the nicest one you have' and this mf walks in covered in blood

[taffingspy]

i need to romance this man with a chubby dwarf lady

[reality-warp]

Jesiba Vael (she/her)

Seldarine Drow

Life Cleric (Kelemvor)

Acolyte

“First of all; no, I’m not a necromancer, so you can stop screaming. Secondly; yes, I can indeed heal you. And finally; if you manage to sever a limb in such an embarrassing way again, I won’t be reattaching it for you.”

She’s a scary-looking sweetheart, a follower of Kelemvor, and a devotee of keeping the balance between life and death. But she’s also had to reattach waaaay too many missing limbs in her time as a healer.

She’ll most likely be my second playthrough of Baldurs Gate 3 once I’ve recovered from the trauma of my first run with Zuzana.

[acepalindrome]

I know we speculated about Dorian and Emmrich being cunty colleagues together, talking shit about the other necromancers, but in light of the discovery that Emmrich is actually a big sweetheart, can I instead propose: Emmrich being the kind father figure Dorian deserves. Emmrich tells Dorian he’s proud of him one time and Dorian just barely keeps from bursting into tears. If he ever gets an encouraging shoulder pat or has Emmrich call him ‘my boy,’ it’s all over for him.

some smut, COD concepts that are rotting my mind away 🎀

dub-con, aphrodisiac, werewolf, hybrids, kidnapping, necromancy, gangbang, weed use, brat taming, size kink, dbf, legal age gap, professor/college student roleplay, creepy behaviour...

thinking about farmer!price fucking his sweetheart after a stressful day down in the village. coming home drunk and tipsy, before begging for a nice, sloppy blowjob from his lover.

or, gaz and soap eating your slick pussy while price and simon fuck your throat raw. strained, raspy voice coming out painful, moans stuttered as they force two, thick and heavy cocks down your throat, covered in drool. you're already babbling from johnny and kyle lapping at your pussy; fighting eachother for the opportunity to suck at your sensitive clit, two moaning messes between your caked thighs.

perhaps, kidnapper!reader taking the 141 because she's just so insane for them. she's known them for what feels like ages. finally locking them in her basement, getting them attached and attracted to her. and, you won't hesitate to let them use you as a reward for being good and obedient. if they're horrible, they get forced into a tiny cage which clearly doesn't fit someone of their stature, forced to watch as another member fucks you raw.

more on necromancer!kidnapper!ghost who terrifys you and slaps you around the place. spitting in your face and fucking you brutally til you're a desperate, wet meas beneath them.

stoner!gaz having you suck him off nice and well while he has his friends over. they all embarass and humilate you for sucking him off so lazily, getting you to put more effort into it despite the effects from the weed and your heavy eyelids. all of them using your throat till it's raw.

los vaqueros (and perhaps valeria) using aphrodisiacs on f!reader and using them while they're desperate and wet. full of cum and slick, your pussy sloppy as drags her tongue along your slit, licking alejandro's girthy cock while rudy fucks your ass.

on a softer note, farmer!soap taking care of highland cow hybrid!reader. grooming and cleaning her, pretty white little panties covering your skin, your tits out and your tail being brushed as he washes you inside a bucket of water. i have an idea that farmer!soap likes small tits — groping and sucking on them till they're puffy.

werewolf!price who loves big tits. sucking on them and squeezing them, trying his absolute hardest not to bite you, eventually muzzling him while riding his thick cock. admiring how your tits bounce, mesmerised and kneading them with his claws.

ghost!könig who's able to fuck deep into you whenever he pleases. fucking his big, fat cock into your slick pussy while your showering. watching as your expression turns lustful and your knees become weak as he slams into you, deep and hard.

physics professor!könig ploughing into you because you failed the test. he believes you should've studied harder. each thrust, he groans and occasionally asks a question, each time you get it wrong, he spanks you with a ruler till your ass is painful and your cunt is swollen from his relentless fuckings.

gambler!horangi who gambles with you. if he wins, he gets to fuck you. if you win, you get to do whatever you want to him. from him doing 69 with you, to you spanking and pegging him while tutting, shaming and humilating him for losing.

pornstar!price stroking his cock for pornstar!reader. spurting thick drops of seed all over your face before fucking you relentlessly. your pussy full and sloppy, cameraman!simon zooming in on your cunny to watch as john drills his big cock into you mercilessly.

4 keegans having a gangbang with you. hoarse and husky voice sending shivers down your spine, your eyes watery as 2 keegans penetrate your slick pussy, the other 2 fucking your tight asshole.

mean!adler putting you in your place. a brat tamer who's definitely into punishments. spanking you and recording it for you to watch back. or, exhibition kink. in the bar, getting fingered by him while he acts all nonchalant and you're dripping down his hand.

brat tamer!mace who loves 69. huge, fat dick pushed down your throat while he grips your smaller hips tightly and eats you out like a starved man. definite size kink. loves hearing you struggle while he eats you out like it's a profession.

dbf!frank woods treating his best friend's daughter like a slut in the bathroom at a get-together. having you moan his name as he pounds into you with a painful, throbbing pace. taking your panties and leaving you bare with drops of semen dripping down your thighs the entire time.

creep!hesh begging you to huff and suck at his boxers while he huffs at your used panties. a missing pair with a cum stain on them, ignoring your accusations and stuffing his boxer briefs further into your mouth while wet humping you.

[theobot]

gotta say even years after watching the untamed I still love wen ning so fucking much like ooooh so scarey big mean unkillable demon dude right hand to the evil man who invented necromancy he kills so many people but then it’s just like. hes just a lil awkward dude and like he has no friends because he’s sheltered but he’s a total sweetheart and he’s teamed up with evil necromancer supreme because the necromancer is very nice and also the only one who was ever nice to him besides his sister so he latched on like a puppy like as far as outside perception vs inside reality dichotomies that’s gotta be one of the funniest

Kiss Picrew Tag!

I was inspired by this amazing post by @mk-writes-stuff, and decided to make a few of my own with my WIPs characters! I'll go with Song of Thorns, Supernova Initiative, Of Starlight and Beasts and Enchanted Illusions because I had free time and hyperfocus lmao! Let's go!

By the way, if you like this, please reblog, it helps a lot 💕

Augustus & Harriet (Enchanted Illusions)

Aaah, my lovelies! Augustus, the book's resident necromancer, and Harriet, our lovely weirdo. They've got a little blood splashed onto their faces, probably as a result of a battle they've just won, but they don't mind (he is a necromancer and she has seen some stuff, why would they mind lmao?)

Renn & Roselyn (Song of Thorns)

They're adorable and I love them with all my heart, Your Honor, lmao. Renn is a half-vampire fey who was born a noble and became a thief due to unfortunate circumstances, and Roselyn is his sweetheart who is a spirited girl ready to defeat the King.

Elveryn & Cadenza (Song of Thorns)

The Monster Hunter who fell in love with an Elven Fey and both of them had a redemption arc. Technically his hair isn't white (Kane's is, not his) but a very pale shade of blond that the picrew didn't have, and he actually wears precision goggles instead of glasses, but you get the idea!

Tarrant & Aiden (Song of Thorns)

Tarrant (the one with red hair), the Silver Snake, and his lover Aiden (they/he), with whom he has a secret love story (which is a secret he has to keep hidden lest endanger Aiden because of his employer). Somewhat-starcrossed lovers with a dash of them being two angsty fools who are bad at communication lmao.

Jasen & Prince Alaric (Song of Thorns)

The Prince (Alaric) and the Pauper (Jasen), essentially! Again, Alaric's hair is actually a shade between dark auburn and dark blond, but I couldn't find it in the picrew so I went with the next best thing. They haven't had a chance to really kiss in the story but have been pining (without being aware that the feeling is mutual because they sure as heck are bad at reading emotions lmao.) for over a year, and really want to have that chance!

Jack & Lyorna (Supernova Initiative)

Once more, lol, Jack's hair is actually not this shade - he is red-haired, but his hair color is more of a natural auburn than this - but regardless! Lyorna is a young freedom fighter from an alien planet in the Khosmonian galaxies, and they meet during Jack's mission there and fell in love! They are adorable and stubborn.

Deimos & Vesper (Supernova Initiative)

ENEMIES TO LOVERS Y'ALL!!! Actually it's more of a Rivals-to-lovers situation lmao, but still. The Sniper and the Assassin. The Alien and the Cyborg. Both incredibly efficient at what they do, they initially annoyed each other to no end and were infuriated at the prospect of having to work together, but slowly, oh so slowly, started to care for each other and eventually fell in love, begrudgingly lmao.

Arammys & Corah (Of Starlight and Beasts)

The Mage and the Knight! Friends to Lovers! Arammys meets Corah by accident after losing his memories, and the duo embarks on a fateful quest to save the continent from a warmongering queen and break an ancient prophecy, after she (Corah) learns of the land's fate.

(Arammys hai is actually golden but I didn't find the option!)

GUYS im tryna churn out my necromancer!tim can i get a little pal a little fella a little sweetheart to help me hash this out

[grigori77]

Once again, to celebrate this awesome day, I thought I'd give another shout-out to some more of those wonderful ladies that I alove and admire, both those who hve inspired me for a while now, and those that I just recently discovered ...

IMAN VELLANI. Oh my sweet girl! :3 Exploding onto the scene thanks to the recent acclaimed hit/fan favourite that was the Disney/Marvel Ms. Marvel streaming show, the most adorable geek girl in ALL THE WORLD really got a major, much deserved profile boost (regardless of the problems) thanks to her co-starring return to the role of super-popular young Marvel superhero Kamala Khan in The Marvels. She's a genuine absolute SWEETHEART and she deserves all the success that's surely coming to her.

GIDEON NAV & HARROWHARK NONAGESIMUS. Yup, I have FINALLY gotten round to reading Tamsyn Muir's ridiculously popular sci-fi fntasy novel series The Locked Tomb! It's still early days, I'm only on Gideon the Ninth, but I am ALREADY falling head over heels in love with the story's central duo, the reluctant warrior Gideon, a snarky oversized golden retriever of a woman, and her "hated" charge, Harrow, the scheming, overly-ambitious scion to an ancient clan of intergalactic necromancers, who's a metaphorical vicious little soaked ferret. I love them, they're so adorably dysfunctional ...

AWKWAFINA. For me, one of the funniest people around, this musician, comedian and actress deserves every ounce of success she's earned for herself. I mostly know her for her acting, having been a fan ever since she was in Ocean's 8, since showing up in a raft of great roles in the likes of Shang-Chi & the Legend of the Ten Rings, Raya & the Last Dragon, Crazy Rich Asians and Swan Song, although she's REALLY hitting her stride now, showing up in REALLY BIG stuff like Renfield, Quiz L\ady and, now, the incoming (and long-awaited) Kung Fu Panda 4.

TATIANA SUAREZ. Perhaps the most incredible sportswoman I have come across in a good long while, this one is a TRUE INSPIRATION REVELATION. A strong up-and-coming contender for UFC World Champion, she's been through SO MUCH in her life to get where she is now, having had her teenage dreams of being an Olympic Gold Medal wrestler dashed after an accident during training led to the discovery of a burgeoning case of thyroid cancer. Fighting off the condition, she then fought her way back after embracing judo and then mixed martial arts, before AGAIN suffering a debilitating neck injury which NEARLY ended her sporting career again, forcing her to take another long-term hiatus to get back into fighting shape ... just as COVID hit. Now she's back again, fighting fit and better than ever, hungry for that next chance and looking like she's definitely gonna get it this time ...

SINEAD O'CONNOR. The last 13 months have been really tough, we've had to say goodbye to some truly wonderful people, but one in particular REALLY HURT. The music industry lost a true GEM with the passing of this genuine GODDESS, the Irish singer-songwriter best known for her INSANELY popular cover of Prince's Nothing Compares 2 U, although those in the know recognise that she was ONE HELL of a force nature in her own right, courting controversy throughout her career for her outspoken religious and political views. She NEVER backed down on what she believed, and earned my undying respect and admiration for it.

FLORENCE PUGH. A completely amazing young actress who's had a trily ASTOUNDING rise to fame in recent years, I've be a fan of Flo's ever since she broke out in a MASSIVE WAY in the twisted psychological drama Lady Macbeth. She's blown us all away since, lighting up the screen in the likes of midsommar, Don't Worry Darling, Oppenheimer and, now, Dune, Part Two, but now, for me she will ALWAYS be Yelena Belova, the true successor to the MCU's Black Widow mantle.

MIZU. One of my favourite female characters of the past year (although I'm sure she would balk at actually bringing up her gender), the titular lead protagonist of Netflix' wild runaway success new animated series Blue Eye Samurai is a genuinely fascinating and intoxivating character, who prompts profound debate about gender roles and personal identity while kicking arse in SPECTACULAR FASHION indeed in feudal Japan.

TEYONAH PARRIS. Definitely one of THE MOST AMAZING African American actresses coming up right now, this young lady is definitely earning her breakout star status. Having come up through sterling turns in the likes of Dear White People, Chi-Raq, If Beale Street Could Talk and Candyman, before finally making good on all that promise with high profile lead turns in THey Cloned Tyrone and her ongoing role as MCU superhero MOnica Rambeau/Photon in Wandavision and The Marvels.

BILLIE EILISH. What do I REALLY need to say about one of the most popular and astoundingly unique musical artists of the moment? Ever since her breakthrough at just THIRTEEN YEARS OLD with her wildly successful first single, Ocean Eyes, which became a massive runaway smash on Youtube, this incredibly talented young singer songwriter has consistently impressed with ever release, entirely deserving her immense success with an amazing debut EP and two subsequently BRILLIANT albums. She keeps going from strength to strength, and at just 22 years old is only just BEGINNING what's sure to be a MONSTER of a career ...

KITTY O'NEIL. A true legend in cinema, even though most of us have NEVER actually seen her face, this little lady was one of the GREATEST stuntwomen and racers of all time, and a MASSIVE inspiration throughout her life as well. Despite going deaf due to illness during childhood, Kitty still went on to become a record-breaking racing driver and professional stunt performer, probably best known for having doubled Linda Cart in Wonder Woman and Lyndsey Wagner in The Bionic Woman. It's a genuine mystery why Hollywood hasn't made a biopic about her yet ...

HOLGA KILGORE. Probably my ABSOLUTE favourite fictional female protagonist of 2023, the badass barbarian lady from Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves was a pure, unapologetic JOY, thanks in no small part to a wonderfully game turn from Michelle Rodriguez. Holga's just an absolute sweetheart, fully capable of decimating a whole room full of big, dangerous men with her bare hands without ever losing her gentle kindness, simple, honest innocence and unswerving loyalty. TRULY the MVP warrior tank any adventuring party wants in their corner ...

SIOUXSIE SIOUX. Truly one of alternative rock's true, all time GOATs, the lead singer of one of goth's greatest and most important bands, Siouxsie & the Banshees, is a singular master of haunting, ethereal vocals and a genuine style ICON who lent her look and manner to a whole GENERATION of scary young women ...

SABINE WREN & SHIN HATI. While my favourite Star Wars offering of 2023, the opening season of the Ahsoka series, was, all round, just SO GREAT for me, there was one particular element that just stuck with me above ANYTHING ELSE - the season-long rivalry between Ahsoka's troubled Mndalorian apprentice Sabine and Dark Jedi student Shin. They raged, continuously tried to kill each other and endlessly traded smouldering looks of hate that bordered on OBSESSION ... all while genuinely SIMMERING with barely restrained sexual tension. They made the whole fandom FERAL, myself includced. #wolfwren indeed ...

BRODY DALLE. And last, but BY NO MEANS LEAST, a little more personal self-indulgience ith one of my greatest rock-fan super crushes, namely the awesome Aussie lead singer/guitarist of supercool punk bands the Distillers and Spinnerette. Still rocking her iconic status to this day, she remains a genuine inspiration ...

[phrogggslayer]

Here's some FNAF SB Fantasy AU watercolor drawings!

I'm not the best at watercolor, but I had a lot of fun. Close up pics (and lore) below! (Feel free to ask any questions about the AU!)

Here's Vanny and Vanessa. In my AU, Vanny is dead when the main story takes place, but her soul is still being used to possess and control people (like Vanessa).

Montyyy! My friend came up with the super cool idea of giving him a star scar on his eye, and it matches up with the eye damage he got in Ruin. He'll probably get that scar later in the story though. Also he may look scary, but he's really just a big sweetheart.

This stinky man. This is the necromancer's disguise when he wants to trick people rather than terrify them with his ugly undead look. I don't really like how the green whiskers turned out, but alas, it is done.

The kiddos! They're just cuties! All of them are adopted, too 🥰

FRONNIEEEE! This is them in their early 20s, before the main story. They are SHIRTLESS and they are GAY and they haven't even confessed! 🥺

Again, feel free to ask questions (you're not bothering me lol).

[dailyadventureprompts]

Suggested character backgrounds for my Innistrad/Bloodborne campaign, divided by region.

Character concepts

Gavony 

I was already a hunter, but after I let it slip I was isolated from my friends and family. I’ve come to Zhava to make a new start

Once a member of the Cathars, soldiers of the church, but I was kicked out for ungodly conduct and this seemed like a good enough place as any to ply my skill with a blade

A refugee from Thraben, when I close my eyes I can still see the endless hordes of undead. ( I might be a necromancer)

I was minding my own business robbing a tomb when I picked up the wrong sword. Now I’ve got the ghost of a saint whispering in my ear about doing good. 

I was raised in a cell of Avacynian cultists, preparing for the day the angel returns to purge the world of mortals. I’ve escaped but cultlife didn’t prepare me for much else. 

Kessig

There aren't many workshops in the Uvenvald and my village is too small to host one anyway. I’m here to learn everything I can so that I can go back and protect them with my knowledge

My family has been killing beasts for generations before the moons went wrong. Its in my blood

A witch from the natterknolls told me to be here as repayment for a favour she did for someone I love. 

I’m a werewolf and if i’m going to go on a moonlit rampage it might as well be one I’m not going to be blamed for. 

I’m looking for the most impressive trophy to win over my sweetheart back in Lambholt. This year I’ll win the hunting competition FOR SURE

Nephalia 

I was one of the Skiltfolk mercenary hunters for a while, but this gig pays better, and I don’t have to gruntwork for necromancers anymore. 

The hunt gives me a perfect place to test out my wild new inventions. They’ll rue the day they kicked me out of the academy

As an alchemist, do you have any idea how much money you can make selling eldritch horrors off piecemeal as potion ingredients? Untapped market if you ask me

I’ve sworn vengeance against a beast that did me grievous injury then got away. One of these nights I’ll find it. 

I may or may not have angered some very powerful people and/or pirates and or/ghosts out on the coast, heading inland and accepting protection from the workshop seemed like the best idea. 

Stensia

As the bastard offshoot of one of the vampiric houses, I’ve grown tired of the gossip and powerstruggles of home and want to actually challenge myself for once. 

I stared too deeply into one of the moons and my family sent me to the Sanitarium in Griar Reach. I’ve learned to control the visions now and they’ve led me here after the Sanitarium collapsed in on itself. 

A vampire owns my family in blood-debt, I do this as a favor to help pay it off. 

I met a devil while traveling along a narrow mountain road and couldn’t solve his riddles. Now I’m cursed and stockpiling enough blackpowder to blow the horn-headed bastard back to hell 

For the past several years I’ve wandered after a really big bird came and stole my whole village one night. I don’t know if this has anything to do with the moons but honestly I’m just taking thighs one day at a time.

Klaroline WIP Wed - Antique Shop AU

Listen, i had three options for things I've been working on and it was a Kingdom of Corpses, Necromancer smut, or this new thing, and I picked this as the most SFW option. This is still rough.

---------------------

The laptop was a cover. Well, the office work still needed to get done, and it’s true that she normally sat out on the patio with it for an hour after lunchtime ended at 3:00 PM, but Caroline was rarely there past 4:00 PM. She prided herself on having competent managers at the coffee shop and when her 'shift' was over, she went home.

Not so today. Today she lingered so long, April had started looking concerned on her third latte, and she flat out refused to add another dollop of ‘Pep In Your Step’ to the cup. One was all the customers got, one was all she got. It’s just—she heard the door open to the right of her and quickly looked at her screen—she had a mystery to solve. The jingling of keys in the lock made her glance sideways and she caught a glimpse of dirty blonde curls and a nice set of shoulders bent over the front door of the shop next to hers. It was annoying that someone so suspicious was so attractive to her personally. She looked back at her spreadsheets.

Footsteps left the door and walked down the sidewalk towards her. Caroline leaned on her elbow to peer closer at her screen. Nothing to see here buddy, move along, she wasn’t paying any attention to you, don’t pay any attention to her. The closer he got, the more nervous energy she felt in her stomach, some odd feeling of something about to happen winding her tighter and tighter. Maybe it was her magic trying to warn her.

When his phone rang loudly, she nearly jumped, and he cursed. Looking over to see him pulling it from a pocket, they made eye contact, and he quirked his mouth up in an apologetic little smile.

“Urgent, I’m afraid. Some other time, perhaps?” He said, as if they’d had a meeting planned, and Caroline blinked at him.

“Does ‘In your dreams,’ sound good to you?” she asked tartly. Of all the presumption…

He smiled, an unexpectedly mischievous thing framed by dimples that promised sin, and looked as falsely sheepish as it was possible for someone to look while still letting you in on the joke. “Your appearance in them has been somewhat perplexing to me. For the moment, though,” he held up his phone. “Pardon me, sweetheart?” Turning down the alleyway that ran between Caroline’s coffee shop and the storefront he had taken over, he put the phone to his ear and started talking in a low tone into it.

Caroline watched him disappear towards the small parking lot at the back end of the buildings, and then turned back around to pull out her phone. Setting a timer for ten minutes and setting it on the table, she went back to her computer. And just stared at the screen, thinking.

His name was Klaus.

[myfavouritelunatic]

Just finished reading the blacksmith. Oh my heart! It hurts. But it was sooo good. I was wondering if when season 2 comes out you'll do a sequel like maybe she gets resurrected somehow. Also cannot stop thinking about when he says to her "You don't understand how significant it is that I'm in love with you." Like sauron is just astounded that someone could make him feel that way. I love that. It makes me think of like if sauron had a soul mate...how he would come to terms with that and his feelings especially after feeling nothing but darkness for so long. I think he'd at first be inconvenienced and then he'd be pissed and then he'd be absolutely obsessed and puppy dog eyes. And like everyone is just SHOCKED when he's on a rampage and this delicate little sweetheart just snaps at him to chill the f out and he does.

Awww little grey face!! You’ve made my day! 🥰🥰🥰

So glad you enjoyed the story! That’s wonderful!

I did have an idea for a sequel a while ago, set in the third age where Sauron is the Necromancer and he brings her back from the dead (but only temporarily). But I haven’t set out to write it yet because of all the other ROP fic ideas that I keep writing AND I am trying to actually adapt The Blacksmith into a novel as well! 😁 but perhaps when season two is done I might find a way to make a sequel out of it? Who knows! 😜

Yeah I really wanted to lean into the idea that their love is what could have saved them from their darkness, and the fact that Sauron actually loving someone like this really is a big deal. So I’m really happy you appreciated that! Haha that’s so cute I could totally picture something like that! She’s the only one that can give him peace.

Oooo perhaps I could write parts of The Blacksmith from Sauron’s point of view? To get a glimpse of how he fell for her? 👀

I’m getting inspired now hehe.

Thank you so much for this, anon! And thank you for reading my tale! ❤️❤️❤️

[morvantmortuary]

“run, baby, run!”

“We’re dead if they knew, sweetheart.”

“You say that like we weren’t both dead already.”

inspired by a few chats with some friends about how the two meanest necromancers keep angry-flirting with each other when I write them in certain scenes, and made when my migraine medication was making it hard to sleep :’D

just a playlist and a moodboard to pass the time 🖤 for now…

[fluff-writing]

Legends of the Necromancer: Rathma came in the mail today :D

Initial thoughts (and Spoilers);

Linarian is a total sweetheart, and kinda dumb. Or just really naive. Bro really tried to resurrect his Best Friend in a Spooky Cave where they used to mess around with the Powers of Life and Death, left her there when it didn't work, and was surprised when that went awry a few years down the line. They also draw him really doe-eyed every time there's a closeup of his face. Cutie. It's an interesting contrast from the whole No-Emotion-Super-Serious Rathma we're familiar with.

Lilith's massacre really was brutal. The drawings of her fuck severely.

There's a Citadel! Where all the angels & demons & their kids lived together on Sanctuary. Mayhaps a location we'll visit down the line? Or perhaps that was what became the Cradle/Kasama in D4.

Apparently Linarian has always had visions of the future, and its pretty much always been a shit-show.

Kessime (Linarian's wife) is sweet. Don't really see much of her before she gets offed, but what we do see is very domestic. She and Linarian love and care each other. (I think they might bone in this book. Good for them!)

It's a little weird how much long-violent-tongue their is in this book. Once is fun but twice is brow-raising. (It is not a long book. 40 pages maybe. There did not need to be two instances of tongue-violence.)

They also took Linarian's shirt off twice. Nice.

Linarian being a farmer is cute but. I dunno. We already got that from Uldyssian and Mendeln, he coulda been a baker or something else fun and quaint. The least they coulda done was show him reaping wheat with a proper sickle, but nah.

At least we know Rathma knows his way around a shovel.

They mention but don't show kids + grandkids. Bummer.

The action scenes were interesting, and I enjoyed that when he's mowing the undead down he gives everyone a choice to either depart or come with him for sweet revenge. Commander of the Dead indeed.

We start to see Rathma's set armor from D3, a fun little nod there. Linarian seems to be able to conjure it from the aether. Or maybe he's borrowing it from the dead bodies around him? I dunno, either way it seems really convenient.

I like that Indira is more or less what we'd get if Rathma used his powers for evil and stuff. They are nice enough foils for each other, and I'd like to see more of her.

...This book is basically Linarian kinda fucking up and losing all the women in his life (Lilith, Indira, Kessime), which is a little. Hm. Don't love that, don't hate it.

We only get a little bit of Trag, but what we do get is very pretty.

There is. No Inarius in this book. Not that there needs to be, but personally I think that's a missed opportunity. Rathma was murdered by his father, they coulda added something between them here.

[kiwifie]

Ooooo I don't think iv seen character "bone arms" before. Please tell us more about them! *o*

Oh yeah that's Neno! (he/they)

They're a necromancer that was cursed as a child to prevent their death. They're more or less held together by magic and can't be killed but their body is constantly rotting, hence the bone arm.

Because of the combination of necromancy/isolation/just generally being incredibly socially awkward they ended up with a reputation as your sort of generic fantasy demon lord or whatever but they're really a sweetheart and just want to be live peacefully. Lyr (the blue haired guy) got in some trouble with the nearby monarchy and decided the safest place to hide out was with the scariest guy around so he bullied them into letting him stay with them and now they've got this weird zombie/skeleton roommate sitcom going on in the background of the plot.
