Long Guild RP nights mean lots of waiting for posts, dice rolls, and comparing character sheets.

They also mean getting to stare at his face

I didn't need an excuse before but hey, there you go

I've been back in WoW lately and it's Vulpera VThursday. Nailed it.

Meet Sharro, Tigorro, and Kraaru. They're siblings!
A screenshot of my Vulpera hunter, Sharro. He's posing while holding a polearm in his right hand and looking away from the camera. He has red fur with beige accents, silver earrings, and amber eyes. His armor is a mix of scalemail and boiled leather and is primarily red, brown, and gold. A screenshot of my Vulpera rogue, Tigorro. He's posing while holding a pair of curved swords and looking away from the camera. He has red fur with beige accents, silver earrings, and heterochromatic blue and amber eyes. He wears a red scarf and a heavy leather coat. One of his swords is blue and the other is red. A screenshot of my Vulpera monk, Kraaru. He's posing while holding a staff in his right hand slung over his shoulder and looking away from the camera. He has red fur with beige accents, silver earrings, and blue eyes. His armor is a simple collection of cloth wraps, leather pants and boots, and his staff is a simple wooden rod.

Seffi and Welxx ft. a hamber by anchors-art on tumblr

Seffi belongs to @gromrig.bsky.social and Welxx is mine
A sketch comic featuring my and my friend's Guild Wars 2 characters, Welxx and Seffi. In each panel, Welxx is on the left and Seffi is on the right. The comic is in grayscale with no color. In the first panel, Welxx is holding a hammer. A thought bubble over his head shows an emoji of the hammer. Seffi, next to him, speaks saying "I don't think you understand how much I love you." In the second panel Welxx turns to look at Seffi, points at the hammer he's holding, and exclaims "Hamber!" Seffi, blushing, continues her previous thought by saying "like, it is indescribable."

Thanks for hosting! I'll add to the goblin pile with Trynnt and Aavic.

Trynnt's an explorer and an inventor in the Durmand Priory. Whatever he finds in the field becomes new technology back home!

Aavic is to magic what Trynnt is to Magitech. He helps write the Priory's spellbooks!

GL to all ♥

Another pride picture! This was a gift from @gromrig.bsky.social drawn by @kiqo.bsky.social of our Asura throuple. Seffi belongs to Gromrig, Welxx and Trynnt belong to me.
A digital drawing depicting three Asura characters from Guild Wars 2. The drawing is mostly black-and-white but features color in the form of a pair of pride flags. The characters - In order Seffi, Welxx, and Trynnt - are posing together. Seffi on the left and Trynnt on the right are smiling and holding up a magenta/yellow/blue pansexual pride flag and holding on to Welxx in the center. Welxx is blushing and smiling, and holding up a smaller black/white/gray/purple demisexual pride flag for himself.

It's Kohho's turn to join the pride parade! Art by @kiqo.bsky.social
A partially-colored sketch of my Guild Wars 2 character, Kohho. He's smiling and dancing while he uses magic to summon ice and water. The spell is colored white, blue, and gray to symbolize the demiboy pride flag while his scarf is majenta, yellow, and blue to symbolize the Pansexual pride flag.

Got a new picture of Aavic from @astraycat.bsky.social ! He turned out perfect and I couldn't be happier with the results.
A digital drawing of my Asura Aavic. He's wearing a fine purple suit with gold trim, white gloves, purple-framed eyeglasses and crystal accessories. In his right hand he holds a conjured sword and a conjured staff in his left. He's using magic here - A Chronomancer's well is manifesting around his feet, a Mirage Mirror appears behind his back, and an arc of Virtuoso blades hover above his head.

Have some Valentine's cards from Trynnt!

Ingame vs Art!
of my Guild Wars 2 character, Trynnt. It's a basic head-on image intended to show off how he looks. He has short blond hair, dusk-gray skin with dark spots, green eyes, and softer features like small ears and a pink nose. His outfit consists of a navy blue shirt, baggy gray pants, brown leather armor and belts, and a red scarf and sash belt as accessories. of my Guild Wars 2 character, Trynnt. It's a bit more complex, showing him in action this time. He has short blond hair, dusk-gray skin with dark spots, green eyes, and softer features like small ears and a pink nose. His outfit consists of a navy blue shirt, baggy gray pants, brown leather armor and belts, and a red scarf and sash belt as accessories. He's channeling elemental magic - Water, Earth, Fire, and air. He dual-wields a sword and dagger while the elements swirl around, below, and above him. His expression is focused, and power radiates from his eyes.

I'm finally satisfied with Aavic's outfits after what feels like ages figuring his looks out. Maybe it's a little campy for a mesmer to wear purple, but he certainly wears it well!
A screenshot of Guild Wars 2 featuring my Asura character, Aavic. He's standing posed holding a staff made of enchanted light. This picture focuses on his outfit - A three-piece suit consisting of an ankle-length overcoat, double-breasted vest, and slacks. He wears black leather shoes that match and finishes the look with a pair of white fingerless gloves, set with enchanted crystals in their knuckles.

This post highlights his outfits, in this case an elaborate purple tunic with patterns of stars, moons, and constellations and decorated with pink crystal accoutrements. A spellbook bound in leather hangs at his hip and a stylish filigreed cloak adorns his shoulders. A screenshot of Guild Wars 2 featuring my Asura character, Aavic. This post highlights his outfits, in this case a set of traditional mage's robes with loose sleeves that cut off at the elbows. They reveal a pair of enchanted gauntlets inscribed with runes. He wears a gold-trimmed white cloak on top of this.

It's winter in the shiverpeaks and Trynnt has tenure. He's skipping the Priory uniform and staying cozy with the new jacket ☕
A screenshot of Guild Wars 2, focusing on my Asura character Trynnt. He's smiling at the camera as if someone surprised him by taking his picture. He's wearing a blue windbreaker hoodie with a red scarf on over the top of it. A screenshot of Guild Wars 2, focusing on my Asura character Trynnt. He's sipping hot cocoa in the glow of a fireplace.

Especially when we get a hood with ear cutouts in the same update! I have no idea how both of these pass QA at the same time.

And maybe because I'm predictable, I had to take a detour over here too. Can you blame me?
A screenshot of the game Elite Dangerous. A cutout of Elite's galaxy map, zoomed in to show a number of star systems with the Asura system targeted. A few other names are visible - Colonia being one jump away and indicated as my last visited system.

22,000 LY and a few days later, here we are. I made a few hops on the Neutron Highway but I mostly took my time getting to Colonia. It's better that way.

It's prettier out here too. Maybe the Pilot's Federation should claim a system for Elite-ranked CMDRs like Shinrarta Dezhra back in the bubble.
A screenshot of the game Elite Dangerous. A picture of a small space station orbiting in the shadow of of a gas giant. The background consists of a sky turned blue by nebula gases and sprinkled with a dense star field as a result of being so close to the galactic center. The space station has a few holographic advertisements for in-universe companies and products projected into space, and a landing pad on top is illuminated in orange light. Far in the distance, the galactic plane can be seen in the form of gold clouds. A screenshot of the game Elite Dangerous. A picture of a starship igniting its afterburners and flying through space. In the background, the local space appears blue thanks to nebula gases. Further away, a dense field of stars can be seen as a result of being so close to the galactic center.

A picture of a starship approaching a space station's docking corridor. Running lights guide the ship in as its engines cut out. Slightly cut off is the station's nameplate - Jaques Station. Visible on either side of the docking corridor are the catchphrases of the station's owner - 'Friends Welcome!' read upside-down, and 'I never forget a face!'

Outside of guild wars I've decided to fly off into space once more. The Mandalay made me fall in love with Elite Dangerous all over again.

I'm gonna head to Colonia, but this time I'm taking the long way 'round. o7 to the brave fools fighting Thargoids in Sol, I'd help but I've got places to be.
A screenshot of Elite Dangerous. Centered at the bottom of the image is a spaceship with its engines firing as it flies past the dark side of a planet where city lights can be seen. The sun - a white supergiant star - is barely visible over the planet's horizon and glints off of the ship's hull. The backdrop is a field of stars, where the galactic plane is visible with brown gas clouds on one side.

I want to go on record and say that if Anet sold this skin direct in the gemstore I'd buy it. Instantly.

Locking these behind RNG in black lion chests is insulting, as is waiting for it to enter the pity store in two months.

Apropos of nothing have this little tidbit in my new character refs for Aavic
A screenshot depicting the hilt and pommel of a sword from Guild Wars 2. I've edited the screenshot to cross out the horse head pommel and added a comment; "Horses aren't real, replace with this pommel" due to my preferences for a simpler design of a crystal capping off the end instead.
