Posting early today because why not. 😜 It's one of two epilogues and rather adorable if I do say so myself. 😉

Her sister. Lynaea has been holding on to the guilt of not being there to protect her for centuries. Their parents don't find out about it until Lyn crosses paths with them while helping Halsin with injuries in Baldur's Gate after the Elder Brain. 💔

Ohhh this is rough in a year where I've played both Elaryn and Ruya. But I've gotta go with Ruru. Being voiced goes a long way and she's just such a big ball of warmth and positivity. Playing her puts me in a wonderful mood. 🥰

Reluctantly, but yes. 😅 I feel like Halsin would want to help, particularly if the threat is literally to the land, and Lynaea would feel obligated to go with him. 😜

It's Tuesday and that means a new chapter! 😁 The last of the actual story; the last two are fluffy epilogues. 😊

Congrats on 1K!!! 😁🎉

I am more of a wordsmith than an artist so I'm afraid all I can offer are screenshots for my dear Ruya Laidir from DA: The Veilguard. 💜 Seeing her in your style would be stunning. 🥰

The void looking back. 😋 That's Miso on the left and Kasumi in the void. 🥰

A photo showing a kitty stretched out behind a small cat tree with a little den. The den appears empty. A very similar picture except it reveals that the den in fact has a black kitty in it, her eyes now facing the camera.

Never pictured it before but now I am and I'm giggling at how endearing Ruya would be. She doesn't dress to impress, she just does her best because that's what the host wants.

Although her idea of fancy is wearing even more gold than usual and a dress so tacky it'd make an Orlesian faint. 😆

Happy Birthday Inquisition!! 💚
Canon Inquisitor, Marian Trevelyan. The gang. My original canon Inquisitor, Arinaya Lavellan, replaced by Marian after some Twitter drama with Cullen's voice actor made it hard to romance the character for a while. 😅 Then fell in love with the Blackwall romance and in general felt like Marian was a better fit for the role.

HoF - No scars 'til mauled by an adult Childer in Awakening.
Inquisitor - No scars 'til attacked by an Abomination/former friend during the fall of the Ostwick Circle. Plus bonus grey hair from stress. 👍
Rook - Decoratively scarred and tattooed her face in defiance of the Qun.
Side by side screenshots showing Elaryn Cousland from Origins-era and from Inquisition-era. Side-by-side of Marian Trevelyan while in the Circle vs after a few years living on the run after the fall of the Circle and during Inquisition. Ruya Laidir wearing a defiant expression with the lighting highlighting her cheek scars.

Windows tells me it's World Kindness Day, so here's some Ruru, the kindest of my OCs. 🥰

(I don't know who calls her Ruru other than me. 😆 Maybe Bellara? Oh, definitely Isabela. 😁)

Ruya "Rook" Laidir with a big smile. Ruya with a warm smile. Another warm smile, this time in full armour. :P A relaxed smile with her fellow Lords.

"Uh, Lieutenant? Need a hand?"

Loaded in last night and this is where I found Kaidan. Silly Canadian. 😜

Screenshot from Mass Effect 1 on PS5. Kaidan has spawned in a spot that should be inaccessible. A different angle from the previous screenshot, this one from Shepard's perspective looking down at Kaidan.

Gonna focus on Marian for this [because the other 3 are tanks 😆].

She starts off Winter focused and stays on the edge of combat, then midway goes Knight-Enchanter with strong barriers and is Fade-stepping in and out of the thick of things to deal damage and provide support for the party.
Screenshot from Dragon Age Inquisition showing a spirit protecting Marian from a lunging wolf. Another screenshot showing Marian with her back to the camera and staff ready for when the dragon in the distance comes back around.

I don't know how many times I've taken screenshots of the ME trilogy over the years. HOPEFULLY this will be the last time, with playing Legendary Edition on PS5 for the first time. But being a PS3 player, I've used phone cameras, digital cameras, a capture card, then LE on the PS4. 😅

Updated AO3 a little earlier than usual 'cause I've been steeped in Mass Effect lately and have been itching to post again. 😁 But we're into part 2 now, which shifts the primary POV from Kaidan to Shepard. 💖

Stumbled on another face claim for Marian (Inquisitor) and now the itch to boot up a fresh game of Inquisition has set in. 😅

Gillian Anderson used to be it but today I learned that Dame Emma Thompson is also a super good match. ❤️
