I really REALLY worked hard on that "Purah & Sages make an intervention" animation, I thought it would be cool to share close ups :)

Link if you missed it: https://www.tumblr.com/sheikfangirl/746767984338550784/goddessdammit-linky-pull-yourself-together-i?source=share What I post are usually sketches i made a while ago that I revamp a bit before posting...this one was made this week. Being exposed to the Zelink community give me motivation to make more than simple doodles. Thank you all for tagging along my Zelink and LoZ fixation. Cheers!

TotK DLC idea!

The screen is black. You don’t hear anything for a long time. Then, faintly, in the distance, you can hear it.

Link. Link. Open your eyes.

While the line echoes familiarity, the voice does not.

Or. Well. It does. Because while it isn’t Zelda, it’s a familiar man’s voice speaking gently, so gently you almost don’t recognize it because there’s no way he ever spoke like this in the main game.

But he is now. And instead of a golden light being the first image you see before the screen shows Link awakening… you see gloom floating in the air. The image cuts to a Hylian waking up who… doesn’t look like Link from TotK?? He’s different, still small in stature, with slightly tanner skin, platinum light blonde hair, and red eyes. But… something’s wrong with his forehead. There’s a weird line on it.

This new character you apparently are gonna be playing in the DLC blearily blinks his eyes open, clearly groggy and too weak to really move. But then that line on his forehead moves a hair, it splits apart, and you realize it’s a freaking eye, red and yellow and it’s like the ones on gloom hands and oh gosh what the hell is it doing on his forehead—

Link realizes something is off and his eyes blow wide, his hands reach for his forehead and he screams in agony and terror, only for someone to scoop him into a hug to soothe him.

And suddenly you realize why that voice was eerily familiar.

It’s Ganondorf. He resurrected you from the era of the Imprisoning War. You, who have a history with him and his family. You, who he wants to protect, who he views as his kid, who he calls a prince and says he’ll keep you safe by controlling your body with his dark magic if he has to.

Welcome to Tears of the Kingdom: Hero’s Shadow.

You have to play a long gone Hero who was resurrected. Ganondorf, who is still recovering his strength in preparation for killing the current Hero, tasks you with finding your betrothed, his daughter, as well as his wife. They’re buried somewhere in the Depths like you were. He wants you to find their burial sites so he can use his secret stone to resurrect them like he did you, and control them as well. Which is doubly bad when you realize his wife was the original Sage of Lightning. He gives you free reign to wander once you go through a tutorial (he tests you to see if you’ve recovered enough strength), because he knows you love wandering and collecting things. Your own personal objective, however, is trying to help Hyrule from the Depths, to break free from Ganondorf’s control, because Link would rather set himself on fire than let Ganondorf resurrect and control the love of his life and his mother-in-law. Your best hope is to find shards of the shattered Master Sword to try and stab the eye on Dark Link’s forehead and break the control Ganondorf has on you. Until you can, though, the monsters are your allies, you can teleport across the Depths by manifesting out of the gloom created by gloom hands (just like what Phantom Ganon does), and the world below is your oyster. If you get too close to sword shards when gloom hands are nearby, Ganondorf can see your attempt and immediately takes control of your body, and no matter what button you press Link just walks back to Ganondorf’s location and stays there until you get a chance to try again.

You start with three hearts, all empty looking like when gloom hurts you, and if you get injured they just shatter. Whenever they all shatter, you respawn at Ganondorf’s location because his gloom hands came and rescued you from dying. The only way you can get more hearts is by collecting poes and offering them to the statues in the Depths. You can communicate with the spirits of soldiers, who may give you combat tips or info about the area. If you gain enough of Ganondorf’s trust, he’ll let you command monsters, and he might even let you wander the Surface (under his supervision) during a blood moon.

You learn of Link’s and Ganondorf’s history through discovering ancient relics/texts that trigger memories. This connection between you and Ganondorf stems back to time before the war, well over ten thousand years ago. Link was engaged to Ganondorf’s daughter, but during the Imprisoning War the family fought against the demon king. Ganondorf did love his family, but he loved power more. Link sacrificed himself, letting himself get mortally wounded to save Rauru from a killing blow. Gan held him as he died, and it allowed Link to both beg him to stop and stab him in the heart with a light shard. The shard didn’t kill him, but it was what Rauru connected with when he hit him in the chest, allowing him to seal Ganondorf away. Ganondorf still wants the world, but his love for his family is still present, though now twisted, so he thinks he can control Link and everyone else with his dark magic in order to keep them safe and in line. Once the threat of the current Hero is eliminated, the world will be his, and his family will be safe. As such, he treats you, Link, the player, like a stubborn child, reeling you in, but does so in a horrific way, torturing Link by controlling him.

You have to break free of this and stop him, and the only hope you have is the distant call of a sword spirit…

#tears of the kingdom #totk #I think it would be pretty neat to play someone who is “allies” with the bad guy #but you still have the objective of stopping evil #But you have to manipulate Ganondorf and work around his watch #So you get to play double agent #And possibly see a more complex Ganondorf #Like the dude is still being evil; he’s using his love for Link as an excuse to control him #He does care about him but he’s expressing it in the worst way #and he wants to do the same to his wife and daughter #So still a bad guy but a far more interesting one #One day you’re on the Surface with him and you see the Light Dragon and you’re not sure who it is #Because Link died before Zelda ate the secret stone #But Link can kind of guess #And Ganondorf almost noticed her so Link has to hug him or say something to get his attention #You have to manipulate Gan as best you can #idk how it would end #Like once you break free what do you do #But the idea tickled my mind so I wanted to write it down #Yes I’m just playing with my Imprisoning War blorbos #no I don’t care #legend of zelda #skye time travels through the queue #hero of shadow

on a scale of Bruce Wayne to Jaster Mereel, how cool would you be if your adopted kid killed the person who murdered their parents?

#bruce: NO KILLING #jaster: hey do u feel better after murdering all those dudes kiddo? let's go get ice cream #batman #bruce wayne #dc #jaster mereel #this contrast delights me every day #dick grayson #batman was like nope ur not murdering the guy who killed ur parents sorry #even though dick was way cuter and more bloodthirsty than jango #jaster was like “here's a gun! go wild!”#star wars #star wars: legends #jango fett #open seasons

Sometimes I wonder just how much knowledge of things the average Japanese teenager would never dream of knowing Yugi has thanks to stories from his grandpa and said grandpa's poker buddies.

Considering apparently knowledge of Russian vodka is somewhere in Yugi's metaphorical memory banks and, let's face it, manga!Sugoroku has a bit of a sleezy side, it is probably A Lot and Yugi will accidentally, metaphorically slap people in the face with facts someone that small and cute should not know, what the hell, Yugi.

#yugioh #yugi muto #chibi rambles #just picturing a classmate staring at him and going 'why the fuck do you know that much about drugs?!?!?' as he debunks an urban legend #between that and the low grades and the leather there is probably a solid segment of domino high who are convinced he's a delinquent #yugi is blissfully oblivious #jounouchi is aware and is going 'lol r u srs my guy' at the rumors #(honda is also aware but is also like 'yeah kinda tbh' because. uh. penalty games are hardcore my dude)#anzu just scares anyone who she hears spreading the rumors into submission let's be real

I can’t shake this terrible feeling that the villain of Tears of the Kingdom is not this guy:

It’s THIS guy:

#tears of the kingdom #legend of zelda #totk #tloz #I acknowledge I may be the only person excited by this idea #im just getting a BAD VIBE #like hey magic hand dude WHY were you holding ganon hostage like that #its not your beef GUY

Day 1 of proving I am Goth Teensy’s #1 fan

Was bored so I decided to do a lineup of how he ages through a comic my sibling and I are working on. Rayman: The Fate of the Moons, look out for it >:)

What happens at each stage/ progress photos below:

1-2 He’s a baby. His name was “Gabin” the time but responded better to “Gavin” lol. He had no magical developments, which worried his mom.

3-6 Actively asked people to call him “Gavin”. He was enrolled in the magic school alongside his sister, but ended up doing terribly because of his “lack of good magic”.

7-16 Through a chain of incredibly unfortunate events, he was put in the Livid Dead and left to fend for himself. Luckily, he finds a found family with the fairy of the Livid Dead, the First Nightmare, a teensy doctor, and a Rayman clone. There, he’s just called “Kid”, “Teensy”, and “Buddy” (he doesn’t remember his actual name)

17-/// Being “purified” at the fairy council, he is assigned the Livid Dead Door guard. He would be amazing at his job if he wasn’t so lazy (or trying to fight against the constant urge to drop everything and adventure). Rayman gave him the name “Goth Teensy” for his choice of clothing, and he didn’t object. He goes by Goth permanently now.
