Turned Out Good!

NPC Sunday

Thank you @frauleiiin and @reigrace-keyboardjam for tagging me.

Answering for Crodek because he’s been on the mind lately.

What type of npc would they be and where to find them?

He would be Sith Lord that the player character has to work with for a military mission. He more of a warlord type Sith so it would a military mission.

Crodek can be found on either Yavin 4, or stationed at random imperial military base. Walking around the soldiers making sure everything is in order is one of his happy places.

Yavin 4 is Crodek’s favorite planet because of its beauty and atmosphere. Some of this is his Cathar genes talking because the Cathars home planets is jungle planet. He also likes how strongly he can feel the planet’s ancient connection to the force is, he finds it reassuring.

If they were a merchant what would they sell?

Crodek wouldn’t a merchant unless it had been the family business for generations. In which a case would proudly inherit the business and seriously apply himself to his trade skill until he’s a master at it. His products would only be the best.

This business would be old school weapon smithing or armor smithing, me thinks.

As a quest giver what’s the question they’d give? A one off or a chain? What the reward be?

Crodek would have a question chain. Where he has a slightly rivalish disposition toward the play character through out the question line. The first quest is sending the player character off to do something menial or beneath them. This entirely for the purpose of testing them.

Crodek used this ‘test’ to determine the player capability and if he can can work them to complete the larger quest line’s missionThe fast be failed by certain character choices which terminates the question chain for that character.

The reward is the usual credits and gear. The only special reward is his grudging respect.

This question would be roughly alliance era were he hasn’t joined the alliance and doesn’t think to much of them. Dismissing them as so something more wishful, rather than an actual faction with power.

If they were a companion how do you unlock them? Do they have a specific quest.

Yes he would be a companion. Crodek would receives after his quest line as a reward. What happens is that as they accomplish the mission together, Crodek makes the alarming realization that the player character is not only his equal but perhaps more capable than he is.

There is two different ways he can be recruited depending once again player choices the first peaceful solution. One he agrees to/offer to join the player as result of his growing respect for them.

Or he can fight them when defeated he will join them once again as a sign of respect. He still feels a rivalish, but the respect is very much their.

Can they be romanced? If so what’s the reward?

Crodek is can be romanced! But only by female characters, apologies to the all the good gentlemen. He doesn’t flirt first but once he is flirt with. He is flattered and toys around a the possibility before fully going for it. Once he committed though he stays.

I don’t fully know what reward means so I’ll assume this means how far the relationship goes. He’ll fully commit to the character but he expects them to commit back or no deal. Crodek is more private, so most romance content is banter. With some physical displays of protection and affection. The procterion hauling the character to safely, shielding with his body type of stuff. The affection is meaningful forehead bumps and the rare hug. Kisses are for total privacy in either a special place or declaration of commitment.

As a regular npc what’s their dialogue?

Crodek doesn’t give opinions he gives statements. Which will happen as reponses to what’s going on.

Occasionall he’ll point out acts or honor skill, or to comment about the the lack of it.

There are a few strategy, war or philosophy saying type stuff he’ll pop out with.

He occasionalmy share a fond memory.

Tagging @blackberry-command-cap, @villainship, @califrey, @queen-scribbles and @kemendin if you’re interested in this challenge.

For the oc asks: not-so-nice edition : alone for the swtor OC of your choice!

I’ll answer this one for my sith warrior Crodek. When he is alone he tends be pretty still. Doing things like reading, meditating, and just sitting down to watch nature. He likes being by himself.

He grew up with four brothers and his parents so his first (and so far only) time really experiencing loneliness was Korriban. Where he was the special acolyte who got a free pass there this caused him to be a target of other acolyte. Which gave him a lot of anger that he funneled into determination to out preform them.

If he was lonely for long period of time. Crodek would blame himself for ending up situation to begin with. While at the same time he’d contumely rationalize whys and how’s of his loneliness. He’d sort of mentally tear into himself to the point where whittles down his pride enough to go out and get help.

Thank you for the question.

Tharan Cedrax Dynamics

Tharan plays the role of adversary to Elvira. He is always the first to question her methods. They spend a lot of time bickering, knocking the other down, only poke them back up into standing. He gets her to question herself and she is able to the same for him.

The thing that really makes this dynamic work is that fundamental both are chasing the same thing. Truth. Tharan does so as scientist and Elvira as Jedi. So even though there approaches are quite different, they still are still pursuing the same thing.

Elvira treasures that she can have intellectual sparing matches with him. He is the one who is most eager to play a card/board game or debate. Because of this he can grow her in a way that the other crew members can’t.

He does have a lot of faults which Elvira and the rest of the crew are definitely aware of. True to path as jedi shadow Elvira’s just gives Tharan little nudges to act more selflessly. Where he is shallow, she is deep. Tharan is able to pull her out the weight of the force to be more present it the moment. Which something Elvira needs.

Fanart of my brother’s Path of the Giant Barbarian, Hawthorn. Who has some truly terrific muscles.

Wip Whenever

This is for @reigrace-keyboardjam’s challenge.

All this fics are multifandom writing wips, because itjrir multifadom I did a bit of explaining, so the vision could still seem and enjoyed even if it’s a foreign fandom.

[Unnamed My Hero Academia (mha) piece]

This is a crack fic from the perspective Detective Naomasa who meets the villain Mr Compress at a grocery store. The thing is Naomasa has a super power to detect the truth when people lie. So when he meets suave undercover Compress buying… er stealing for his villain friends, things… get out of hand.

Especially when Naomasa learn that the man is lying about having a daughter, being a police officer Naomasa assumes the worst and trying to arrest. They end up handcuffed together with cuffs that cancel out their superpowers. Naomasa is unable to detect truth while attached to a proven lier. So now they have to work together to get the handcuffs off. Who knows maybe an unlikely friendship will occur.

Know how or idea why I came this story idea but the brain worms won’t go away.

(Beneath the Aragon Sea a transformers fic)

This story is a coming of age story that centers around a young Hot Rod. Who returns to his war ravaged planet Cybertron with the autobots only to get captured by Quintesson invaders, who are capturing both autobot and their enemy decepticons for slave.

Through an accident Hot Rod absorbs the matrix of leadership, this gets noticed by Soundwave takes him and they escape. So Hot Rod finds himself pretending to be leader while he tries to return the matrix to its rightful owner Optimus Prime, which means going back to where they escaped from.

So stuck with a powerful enemy Hot Rod from collects fellow survivors like Pokemon. Which be good thing if he didn’t have to lead them through the bowls of a planet that is very much alive (survival with slight horror). Many of these people also don’t like each other so his work is cut for him.

This fic has two chapters already published. It is also a glorified excuse to write about my favorite, action adventure and describe cool metal planet scenery as well as worldbuild to my heart desire.

(Wind Bound Embers a genshin fanfic)

This one features Detective Heizou who decides to take an unexpected vacation to a foreign nation. Which is really an excuses to investigate a shady or Giza toon known as the Fatui at their hotspot.

However he not the only foreigner investing fatui activities, as the Dark Hero (basically Batman) turns up as well. They get all in each other way over their rivaling investigations and shenanigans ensue.

Bruh writing out my wipes like this made me realize have a thing character development through comedic High-jinks 🤣 I blame you Rei.

(Unnamed Starwar Old Republic Fic)

Would like to write a 5-6 chapter fic where each chapter focus a my Jedi Consolars relationship with each of her class companions.

I plan to write more Swtor stuff in the future when I’ve fleshed out my legacy more. So that I have better sense of how the pieces fit together. So sitting on my hands for now.

Thank you for the challenge!

Look it how alive he is in this!

Saw a lot of him on my dashboard lately ahahah

Transformers Hound Headcannons

His Awe

Hound is blown away by the small things in life like how molecules make metal he appreciates how delicate their structures have to for life to just work. To him the fact this can echo from molecular level up the levels of an ecosystem. He never gets tired of how miraculous it is that things just work and that work well enough for things to just keep living.

Hound carries this awe with him as an insatiable curiosity. He can see the miracle in things working! Enough to listen appreciatively has Prowl ranting about strategy, Wheeljack gushing about what could work, and Mirage literature takes. All of these things are genuinely incredible to Hound.

He always wants whoever he talking to tell him more about ever it is their going on about. As a result of being a very engaged listener he has a lot friends amount the Ark crew. Even with difficult bots like Cliffjumper and Mirage. Hounds ability to always talk to people can be annoying since he has held two separate conversations at the same time before. To the irritation the two bots trying to talk to him.

This curiosity is what drives him. Drives Hound to explore, to make friends, and to lay on his stomach in the mud to watch the fish doing their thing for hours at a time. This curiosity and constant learning that goes with it is part of where is his reigned tracking skills come from.

His cause

It is this constant amazement that life just lives, that Hound fights for during the war. This is cause he chooses to risk his life for, this is what he comforts himself with on nights where even the stars are dark.

This part of his being is why Hound treasures Earth. There is so much living in the earth from the people to the worms beneath their feet. It just blows Hounds mind. Because it’s so beautiful, and so preciously balanced it’s…every Cybertron isn’t. Was but is no longer. So Hound will treasure and record as much of Earth’s life as possible.

He’d treat a weed he dug up like it’s sacred. While carefully photographing and documenting it, for his holograms. Then he’d gently replant it before going to the Ark to reconnect and share.

Authors note: I just think there could be this beauty to Hound so now you all get to have it too.

I’m really enjoying this look for Crodek, I plan to refine it the future, but dang he does look good in hoods. Catnan doesn’t need a mask when he’s got this face.

The rough and tumble combat medic comes through strong.

A couple more Emryn outfits! I really like how rugged the brown one looks in particular.
