#sivvus

[thedomesticanthropologist]

Sivvus strips naked the moment they get to a river, wading in to wash the Mindflayer muck out of his hair and off his body.

Astarion whistles

Gale turns red as a beet and starts saying things like "HOOOBOYYY" and "GOSH, WELL"

but then flinches and makes a pained expression at himself, rubs his forehead, turns around to face away, turns back to ask a question, fumbles, turns away again, puts his fists on his hips and sighs really loudly and then realizes that makes no sense, points at a bird,

"YOU know those are rare in these parts-" voice cracks, clears his throat, rocks back and forth on his heels, "MmmhmMM! YES. Very. Very... ah... shall- are we stopping, now? Should we camp set up- set up camp perhaps-"

Sivvus, undisturbed, only submerged to his mid thigh with every expanse of his smooth, hairless, un-scarred, toned body on full display: "You all should bathe as well, I can smell you from here."

Astarion, unsure if he can tolerate running water yet: "And miss the show? Mm, I think I'll watch from here, darling."

Gale: "IM actually Quite FINE. Not that you aren't fine, Sivvus. You are very, very fine I just mean- for cleanliness I'm fine. You're, you- ah. I'll. Later."

Sivvus, deep frowny: "You're disgusting. Get in the river, both of you."

On that day a few things were learned: Sivvus has no concept of body shame.Astarion can go in running water, and Gale? Gale bathes with his entire outfit on.

Apparently.

When in company.

He also, by the look of the stream of bubbles coming up when he dunked his head, may or may not have taken the opportunity to scream under cover of River.

I heard we’re drawing our beloved mutuals’ OCs? Then a quin for @quinthebard and a Sivvus for @thedomesticanthropologist 😌

Long haired character with the hair falling like liquid all over them as they’re hurt and on their knees

[thedomesticanthropologist]

Facts about Sivvus if you get past his barriers, and he likes you

- Wakes up before you, always brews the tea perfectly for when you get up. A little obsessed with timing, so you better be okay being studied in your sleep so he can get your patterns down

- Cuts fruit and vegetables into fancy designs and shares with you

- Fixes your clothes/smooths wrinkles/re-ties laces so they're pretty to keep you presentable

- Quietly spends time in your space when there's downtime

- makes his own soaps and essential oils, probably makes one in a smell he thinks you'll like and gifts it to you. If you're traveling, hides herbs and dried flowers in your laundry in neat satchels to scent them for you

- Will dance with you, but only if he leads, and usually it's ballroom style. Very elegant, structured, but intimate

- might let you braid his hair but only if you're as good at it as he is

- Goes from touch-adverse to restrained but touch starved. His fingers will find a reason to brush against you

@thedomesticanthropologist’s Sivv finds Tav after a misuse of teleport 😌

Mutuals Mutuals Come one COME ALL!!!

Put your various sona's and appendages together for the unveiling of a lil' something I've been working on while being distracted from animating Dame Aylin's wings (Its long, hard, fun as all hell but the concentration required to do so seems physically impossible for a beast of my genus)

I drew all my moots tavs/pseudo-companions!!! It took a bit, but it was well worth it! Everyone's design is so unique and fun to figure out. (10 is a big number of moots)((which I am very grateful to have :3)) So without Further Ado!!! (there will be so much more Ado):

(page break cuz the images are 400x400 each but 10 times, I also go on for a bit about how much I like each Tav/pseudo-companion character) ((if anyone can give me tips on how to size pieces in a normal style digitally i'd be very grateful))

First of all is Sivvus the Fey Prince (he/him)! This elusive Eladrin Tav belongs to @thedomesticanthropologist! A gorgeous yet seemingly cold-hearted druid who tends to keep his cards close to his chest. Though if you want the challenge you can see for yourself if you can try and get close to him to see if Sivvus is as closed off as he seems to be. To be quite honest, Sivvus really grew on me. A very fancy Eladrin with a high society (fey society) upbringing ( with very good looking mood boards to match) and the like only for him to be thrust into the bg3 world with a worm to boot. He is charming! Also his backstory? <3 Defienetly go read it! 10/10 would draw the snob again :)

Second off we have Gum (He/They)! A Githyanki Cleric of Mystra. Being @piipaw's Tav you'd find this charming fruit lover trying to live a peaceful life after escaping from the creche that raised them. I like Gum a lot as the concept of a githyanki trying to find their own way in Faerun while also having no idea about any of the social customs is very gripping to me. I recommend greatly to check out the blog for Gum fics, fanart and a very cool moot . :)

Next is H'rayn of Verkos (she/her)! Now different from all the character's I drew, H'rayn is not a Tav! She's actually a pseudo-companion character with a lotta lore and history! She even has her own quest, party banter, approval and disapproval things. It's the whole deal!! @githkisser made an amazing post all about H'rayn . If you want a ton of indepth and fun info that's really really well documented, I cannot overstate how much you should it check out! I find myself going back to learn more about H'rayn as she really is as well thought out as in game companions! It's quite fun thinking up of ways tavs can interact with her and the art is mwah!!! very good indeed :3

4th! Tavern (Tav) the Bard! (they/them) This darling bard ran away from the circus.....from birth! Created by @avocado-writing, Tavern plays their way into your heart with their silly antics, warm heart and eldritch pocket dimension in their chest!

Tavern is a doll to doodle and I am amped to draw them even more in the future. The heterochromia and the inclusion of instruments does make them a fun challenge (i will draw instruments accuratley with these paws eventually). Go check them out!! :D

5th! Hvinidyr the Barbarian (he/him)! @star-bear-art (I just realised after all this we aren't actually mutuals. Which is funny since we kinda have the same name and theme with the bear thing XD) If you wanna see wonderous art of Hvinidyr as well as the other companions, go look right over here!

Winnie (Hvinidyr) has a lot of forms depending on the time period you wanna look at. The one I chose was the most recent with the large scar tissue all over the left (right? I'm horrible at directions, my paws don't make an L shape for me to tell). He was really fun to sketch out (and probably later colour in) and has a really unique design that I appreciate :)

6th Vierlin the Enchantment Wizard (and a lil' bit rouge)!!!(she/her) @sybaritick's Tav!!! Now!! This classic drow has a keen intrest in enchantment magic, teaching her crafts to nobles in Amn. After the whole tadpole fiasco, she also finds another use for her multitude of arcane skills. Most notabley depicted with a local wizard.

Now I won't get ahead of myself here but the fics that Sybaritick wrote about Vierlin are like....licking a warm pan of thickened maple syrup or a fancy meat meal with so much demi-glaze you're left smacking your lips for at least 20 mins after eating. Its indulgent. And I couldn't recommend it enough!! Read it!! (it took me a good 8 times to get the 'ie' part of Vierlin's name right, the letters look the same to me)

7th Fink the Spores Druid (they/them) belonging to @causticcontemplation! They're a pretty short Tav a 2.5ft and have a whole modern AU fic about them!!! You can read all about it here! (the pun name is amazing!)

I found it cool to use the fic to figure out how to colour them in, I ended up sending an anon ask instead and it helped great! Lovely Tav 10/10!

8th Korydass the Druid!! (She/her)!!! Conjured by @cfcreative, this seemingly non-emotive bronze dragonborn lights a spark in viewers as her tail and love for nature portrays otherwise. Art of Kory is many and also very good. Reading through her lore is fun watching her dynamics with the different origin characters change as she opens up to the party.

Now I do have slight bias, I like drawing Kory the most since her head shape is less humanoid. It's just so satifying, also her design is crazy awesome to work with so all around its great recommend I like her a lot :3

9th Asheera the Paladin (she/her) produced by @optiwashere.

To be quite honest I wouldn't even have a blog if it wasn't for Asheera's fics. They are EXCELLENT. If you want to go through a journey of a half orcs struggles, successes and gripping romance with Shadowheart, VAULT YOURSELF into Opti's A03 page and devour. You will have negative regrets about it just like I! Asheera is great I love her a lot I am the most normal about her.

(I'll keep it brief since this post is long enough to cross a river)

10th Quin the Bard (he/him) composed by @quinthebard (who'd have known?)

This darling plucky bard is the star of an ongoing comic that is very dynamic and very gripping. (My fave panel is this one). Despite being 100, Quin still maintains his joyful and kind nature when traveling with the tadpole gang.

Definetly one of the most friendlies Tavs out of all the ones i've drawn. (he was also the first i drew out of all of these!) He's a delight!! Go check him out! Thanks to all my moots for giving permission, having such great characters and being such lovely moots! <3 <3 <3

(Any pronouns or other changes that want be changed, feel free to DM about it. I love those! )

Shadowheart and Sivvus

Shadowheart: So Sivvus, tell me, did you really have a castle? Or is that just a story you tell to try to impress people?

Sivvus: I have no need to lie in order to be impressive.

Shadowheart: That doesn't answer my question

Sivvus: Yes, I lived in a castle with a private, secluded wing to myself. I had quite an extensive garden I fed myself from, my own bath house. It was... all I required. I rarely left it.

Shadowheart: Sounds beautiful. Did you ever get lonely?

Sivvus: It is difficult to recognize loneliness as a negative when its embrace has long been a refuge.

Shadowheart: So you were lonely.

Sivvus: I...

Shadowheart: I know what it's like to find comfort in something others fear. But sometimes...

Sivvus: I was lonely. Painfully so.

Shadowheart: So was I.

[thedomesticanthropologist]

"I know I must have- that I- I must have-"

"Siv, you're burning up. You don't have to speak, okay? I've got you. Just rest."

"I loved. I have loved. I know I did. I can't remember what it felt like. I can't remember what it felt like."

"Sivvus-"

"Do you know how I know? I know. I know. It's this." Weakly, he repeatedly thumped his fist against his chest, over and over, tears sparkling in the flickering firelight right at the edges of tightly shut eyes.

" It is the emptiness that the absence of that feeling left behind. It is... this screaming... Aching pit, that must have been filled with something, once. It must have been filled with something once. I cannot have always been this empty. It cannot have always felt like this. It cannot... it cannot... it can't..."

Tagging sivvus lovers @star-bear-art @quinthebard @avocado-writing

when the character who's like "i will never reveal my trauma to anyone" gets a high fever and, while weak and delirious, starts spilling every.

last.

@thedomesticanthropologist I bribed him to stay still

Please admire my boy

That is all

Sivvus memes

Me when I'm not eating a fruit: I mean I don't like all of them, but on the whole fruits are okay I guess

Me when consuming a fruit I like: there is a reason we say the gods drink nectar, and here on earth nectar makes fruit. Succulent. Restorative. Nourishing my mana reserves as well as the body. My hands are dripping with it and I will not -- can not apologize.

[avani008]

@luminouscassian wanted Devasena, green!

If Mahendra is unquestionably her son, Sivvu is her father’s daughter. In all ways, really: from her carelessness over her clothes, from her decided preference fo the color green, from her uncanny silent focus. Devasena would find it a great deal more unsettling did she not love her Baahubali so; and besides, with old age she finds that sobriety not so dreadful after all. 

(”I knew it!” Mahendra announces, throwing himself upon the floor petulantly. “She’s your favorite.”

Devasena smiles and shakes her head.)
