messy mini comic because being Dragonborn is lowkey Taima’s worst nightmare lmaooooo

[ososull]

you said that being Dragonborn is Taima’s worst nightmare, and the corresponding comic is gorgeous. can you elaborate? thank you!

Of course!! Thank you so much btw!! I love exploring this concept.

The Dragonborn is someone who has both the blood and the soul of a dragon. To Taima, this is super distressing, because it’s a signifier that she’s inherently separated from personhood in a way.

She lacks a human, mortal soul, which she finds disturbing. Many in Tamriel (and just many cultures in general) view our souls as encapsulations of our entire beings- learning that your “entire being” is that of a different species whose tyranny you’re fighting to end would be dysphoric for her to say the least.

Additionally, it’s always said that a Dragonborn appears in times of great need to vanquish evil- Taima was a simple hunter and forager before finding out she was Dragonborn. She enjoyed her quiet, rustic life, and suddenly she’s told that she doesn’t have a human soul AND that the world will live and die by her actions.

It makes her question everything- when she’s talking to her friends, Lucien, Kaidan, Inigo, Taliesin, etc, she always has this sinking feeling of “What if we see the world entirely different and I never would have known it because I’m not a ‘real person’”, “Am I a danger to them”, “Am I just pretending to be a person”, etc.

She IS a real person but that’s just her perspective on it lol!

good evening I still think it’s the funniest shit in the world that if you have the Kaidan mod it’s implied that Astrid is able to kidnap you because she just zoots your party to absolute hell

The prize.

A redraw of a piece I did last year to close out 2021 (in a way)! While my art definitely changes, giving up the skeleton key never gets easier :/

[ososull]

are we all just going to ignore this part of Lucien’s banter with TLB or-

[ososull]

After the most recent ask I got I decided to draw up a quick look at my dragonborn Taima’s most current design (seen first in this post I made a bit back)! I love designing adventuring fits lmao

when you get your ass beat and then some asshole from cyrodiil limewires your consciousness into a house-arrest bracelet that looks like a grandpa
