Character parallels - Tabris Origin | Loghain Mac Tir
"I see that the path that led you here was not easy. There is suffering in your past: your suffering, and the suffering of others. By the time you reached Shianni, she was broken, brutalized – you were too late. Tell me, pilgrim, did you fail Shianni?" "Teyrn Loghain Mac Tir, the brilliant commander. Pity the one time you tried to rule, you failed so miserably. You had to be beaten, humiliated, lest you destroy your own country. You even doomed the Wardens by bringing the Inquisitor down on them. You destroy everything you touch."

I can't find the post where I was asked which Chaos God my various OCs would fall victim to, so I decided to rewrite my thoughts.
I actually can't see Jane Shepard falling to chaos. What I find more interesting and compelling is if we look toward Age of Sigmar and the Stormcast Eternals. I can easily see Jane becoming one of them. Instead of Cerberus bringing her back after her death on Alchera, the god Sigmar inducts this most courageous and heroic warrior into his ranks of nigh-immortal warriors.

Kallian Tabris has enough rage in her heart to easily be swayed by Khorne. Her desire to see the humans who killed her mother brought to justice would be the stepping stone toward his corruption. Khorne isn't just about wanton slaughter and bloodshed, he also stands for honorable combat and even justice in his own violent way. She would try to use Khorne's power for good at first, to bring bloody retribution to those who deserve it. But that's an inevitable path to damnation.
Tzeentch would absolutely love Sarit Ramesh. At her core, she will always be the sickly little girl who grew up in the slums of Neon, whose lungs were permanently damaged by the city's industrial runoff, and whose body will always be frail and weak. She wants to fix these problems by improving herself through technology. Seeking change and growth by replacing her own body parts. She is also much too smart for her own good, and is willing to throw laws and morality out the window if it means she won't live another day in pain. The changer of ways can latch onto these plots and schemes, and turn her into a very capable servant.
You'd think that Iona would be the perfect servant of Slaanesh, since that chaos god is often stereotyped as the god of sex, debauchery and perversion. Maybe her Saints Row counterpart would be swayed by the dark prince, but Pathfinder Iona is actually much more vulnerable to Nurgle. Her entire slutty, outgoing persona is a shield to protect herself from the deep existential dread of her near-immortal half undead existence. Iona does not want to live for a thousand years, but she will. So she deals with the pain by self-medicating via sex and drugs. However, that core of hopelessness and inevitable decay is precisely where Nurgle lives. And he would love to corrupt her.
A Nurgle worshiping Iona would not become a bloated, festering, rotting sack of meat like most of his servants, however. Iona would keep her looks, and she would retain her hyper sexual lifestyle for the same reason she adopted it in the first place. It's just that everyone she sleeps with would find themselves deeply infected with the plague god's newest and most deadly sexually-transmitted gifts. Spread from Iona's most intimate encounters, infecting the world with the same despair she has been consumed by.
The OC I could actually see falling to Slaanesh is Zoe Iwasaki. While she does have a kinky side, it's not what the dark prince would actually latch onto. Like I said before, Slaanesh is often stereotyped for their sexual nature, but that's not actually what they embody. Slaanesh is actually the god of excess, passion, obsession, decadence and pain. Zoe has a pit deep in her soul that she thinks will only be filled with money and power. She is angry at the world for the things her father and other people did to her, and she wants to get revenge but not through bloodshed or even legal justice. She wants to prove everyone wrong by making herself wealthier, more powerful, and a legendary icon of Night City that will be remembered forever. She pushes herself to extremes to see this done, and she manipulates, deceives and hurts others just like she was hurt in pursuit of this goal. (poor Judy) This pursuit of an impossible goal is what drives many people toward Slaanesh, and Zoe would be a perfect victim.

'Date Pies' masterpost 🌹
'Date Pies' is a beloved Dragon Age fic and project I started in 2021. I never turned it into something like an art masterpost and thought it might me fun!
Do you recognize some characters? Can you guess what happens in the story from those images? (especially the Dog-Teagan scene? 💀)
I took a lot of creative liberties, but it was immensely fun to further indulge in DA lore and to fill-in some vague or empty spaces with my headcanons and costume + character designs.
It's a Dragon Age Origins fic with a Kallian Tabris (the city elf) romancing Bann Teagan.
AO3 fic cw: Typical DA violence, blood, gets smutty in the last chapter (of course it does!)
Dragon Age art tag has misc DA stuff, from other friends' and clients' OCs + canon characters + more Kallian and Teagan sketches. Reblogs are appreciated if you'd like to shop around and find individual art posts you enjoy — no pressure, though!
Also a big big thank you to @shanaraharlyah for helping SO SO MUCH in inspiring me, motivation, AND revising the fic (and being a dear friend overall!!!). She has her own fics and artworks in the DA universe — including a beautiful, compassionate and strong Surana — and I recommend her and her blog to anyone in the fandom ♥ 🌿

Returning to my roots lol. Okay, okay, I know I named Sera’s armor “Trickster’s Tunic” but I will be changing the name for hers, and using “Trickster’s Tunic” for Kallian’s (Isabela’s, really) armor because Trickster’s Tunic was in Awakening. Completely arbitrary, I know, but I’m gonna do it. Also, I did this armor a little different. I separated the shoes and glove from main armor, so you can now mix and match (but, be aware, part of the main armor’s texture shows on the back of the feet a little so shoes are needed to cover it).

A Dragon Age: Origins story. Tabris/Alistair. 31,227 words. Rated M.
The only Daveth & Female Tabris and Female Tabris & Warden's Mabari fic on AO3!
Chapter 10: Ever Closer
Butterflies swarmed in her stomach as she ambled around and realised she was running out of things to do. Time was passing as quick as a shoddily-made candle melted, and she wished it would stop. Any moment now, it would rain. Any moment, she would be called to her Joining, whatever that would entail. Any moment, the darkspawn could attack. Somewhere along the way to Ostagar, Kallian had lost track of the days, but she knew it was mid-August, and that Soris’s birthday was soon. Would she even still be alive when it came?
Her breath was coming fast again, and there was an uncomfortable feeling in her hands, as though the butterflies had migrated there. She clenched them into fists intermittently, but it didn’t help. It was too loud. There were too many people, too many noises competing. She shook her hands by her side, not wanting to catch anyone’s eye but needing to expel whatever the fuck had been building in her. Kallian squeezed her eyes shut.

Zevwarden Week Day 1: Culture Shock “I never thought I would miss the endless sea of grey skies as much as I do right now,” Zevran said, staring ahead into a pool of lava. Kallian’s face was ashen, she took deep gasping breaths hoping to hold onto her stomach’s contents. With hands braced on the railing of the fence she closed her eyes and hung her head. “Need… fresh air.” “Well I suppose we could always walk all the way back down those many stairs, and then through the long corridor and up the stairs to make it out of Orzammar. If you are feeling up to it.” She couldn’t see his face but she could tell he sported a shit-eating grin from the way he said the words. Her stomach rolled and she swallowed roughly. Then forced herself to turn and look at him. “Fuck off,” she rasped. He laughed, throwing his head back enough that the orange glow of lava reflected like a sunset on his golden hair. “How come you’re not as sick as I am? You had the same ale,” she accused. “Because, my dear warden, I stopped drinking much earlier while you insisted on playing that drinking game you were doomed to lose. One of us has to be sober enough to watch out for the assassins that apparently run all over these streets.” Feeling like her stomach had stopped churning, Kallian turned around and slid down the fence until she was sitting on the ground. “You should feel right at home then.” “Funny you should say that,” Zevran said, joining her in sitting, “I had thought Ferelden was the strangest land I encountered. But Orzammar is both very similar to and very different from Antiva. For one, I am not used to being so tall.” Kallian snorted a small laugh, and allowed herself to lean on Zev’s shoulder. “I miss the sky too,” she said softly. “I can’t ever tell what time it is. And the fucking rivers are made of lava.” “It is funny that. I keep thinking, ah yes it must be the middle of the night. And then I look up and see nothing but stone!” He shook his head. “I rather thought I would never miss camping but now, here I am, in a proper city, and I find myself missing the night sky.” “And I’m gonna-” Kallian abruptly stumbled trying to get up. What she managed was to crawl a couple paces away and found a random pot to throw up in. With sweat dotting her forehead she sat back against the wall. “I swear… I can hold my liquor… normally.” “Dwarven ale does not even taste good enough to be worth drinking so much to get this sick. At least if you come to Antiva I can show you the kind of wine her vineyards produce, with grapes so sweet.” “You want me to come to Antiva?” Kallian latched onto that one sentence. “When this is all… over.” Zevran caught her eyes, this time looking strangely shy for someone normally so boisterous. “I suppose, ye, I do want that. If you are of a mind. I think you would greatly enjoy the views of sunsets on the rooftop.”

It's been a while since I did one of these. And I've been having a lot of fun adapting my beloved Dragon Age OC into wow, so this felt like a thing to do.

RP Hooks –––
Former Servant Girl - Kallian's family have served the Sunstrider royal household for generations. Although they were commoners with no noble blood, they had always lived among the wealthiest and most elite of High Elf society. Kallian's old life was one of luxury and hard work combined, ensuring the estates, clothes and households lived up to the luxury expected of the nobility. A Very Angry Elf - Kallian suffered from intermittent explosive disorder before becoming a demon hunter, which made her life difficult enough. During the scourge invasion of Silvermoon, she watched helplessly as the undead hordes tore her family apart, only to immediately raise their corpses so they could attack Kallian. She had to destroy their shambling remains multiple times as they continually rose again, more disfigured and desecrated than before. Until all that remained were piles of meat and Kallian's broken, vengeful psyche. A Life Returned - The Illidari were formed to fight a very specific enemy. That enemy is no longer a major threat, and demon hunters all across Azeroth have had to find new purpose. With the Legion and the undead Scourge kept at bay, Kallian has found that her rage and singleminded fury have begun to dim, and she's found time to engage in hobbies and activities that once only existed as faint memories.
