My trans man male wol who is a dominant top my beloved ❤️

As a bonus ! My beloved varient Hythldaeus who I had developed so much pre EW
He is a tank main, he is jacked and he has so much lore that maybe I'll get into one day but not now
Ft a bonus bonus; Raphael who is an AU for Hyth that I was writing. He's... Not a shard but he's similar

I havent done a lot with them in a while though and I think I'd push Apollo more int plurality if I touched them up somewhat

own interests or skills with in the arts
His shards all have artistic talents but they are spread across a variety of mediums
The current Altima is a musician with a focus on the violin family. He is mostly nonverbal and its hard to tell what he's thinking

three of Amaurot's greatest artists were a singular person
He was very hesitant to accept their offer but agreed on the condition that the truth of his aliases would not be revealed to the public
While his confidence did improve among the Convocation, he focused more on uplifting others than his

Aoide for his music and his lyrics, Melete for his prose and poetry, his plays, Mneme for his paintings.
He had the skill to perform but never did so, instead he passed on his works for the public to enjoy and kept to the shadows
When the previous Altima retired, the Convocation discovered that

Altima is one of my babies though
His name was Apollo, and he had incredibly anxiety over the ways in which he was talented. He feared to stand out in the very conformist Unsundered world, and he also felt a lot of shame that he could never commit to one medium as an artist
So he used pseudonyms

mutations. He makes a lot of fucked up plants and I love him

botany but a few branch into different fields
The current seat is very connected to the Twelves Wood and only really interacts with the other ascians when they ask for him. He's generally disinterested in their cause but maintains loyalty to them
His interests are more based in toxins, poisons and

He generally did like the rest of the Convocation, mostly because a good lot of them were the best scholars in their fields and could converse with him with the same level of passion and interest as he held
His shards generally retain his preference for science and isolation - most preferring

So we have Halmarut ! His name is Demeter, ofc
He is an incredibly focused scholar who prefers his work and study to people. He's very antisocial and he's a highly strung perfectionist
He preferred to work with natural growth rather than creation magic

working out Altima as a character to develop and write because I still wanted to play with that role. At the same time I started playing with Halmarut
(I need to play with their unsundered designs more, I really don't have enough shots of them)

One of these concepts, though, I did change
Originally I had Fandaniel as the seat that handled the arts. The mix of how Fandaniel is in game and the association with Leo - it made sense to me. I shifted things around after meeting Hermes and finding out the seats' roles overall but then started-

So I've written a chunk of the ascians in rp spaces for many years now and prior to Endwalker, I had a very distinct Fandaniel concept that was made very much canon divergent by the time of EW. Most of these I still kept because I prefer them (I have a lot of pre EW HC that Ive kept)

hes so deeply beautiful

disability and the ndis
Moving means that maybe all of that can be built upon into a better space for me to exist in mentally
Its not a 100% decision at this point
but im hopeful
