sym was created in a lab for me so i had to draw him >:)

#iwasateenageexocolonist #🩸
art of symbiosis from i was a teenage exocolonist. he has a wondrous expression and is raising his hand to his face. his hair looks like ribbons and floats like it has its own gravity. his collarbones mimic the maw of the faceless.

#veiltober #veiltober2025 #dragonage #🩸
art of tarquin standing facing the viewer. he doesn't have his cloak or cape and is just wearing black pants and grey shirt of the SDs with the top part of his vest and red sash. his left hand is placed on a dagger with a snake motif that's attached to his hip. his hair is really long and shiny.

Tarquin week (belated) day 4 - Blood family

Something different I guess!
#DATarquinWeek #🩸
a sheet of paper with a family tree lies on a wooden table, a white quill laying over it. the quill has ink on it as it was used to cross out tarquin's deadname from under his portrait as a little child. the family tree shows his two brothers, parents, and cuts off at his grandparents

Tarquin Week day 5: Romance
#DATarquinWeek #dragonagefanart #viperquin #🩸
art of Tarquin and Ashur nude and covered with a single long piece of red material winding through the image and going over their hips. Ashur's in the top of the image visible from above and sitting turkish style, and Tarquin's on his back with his head in Ashur's lap, looking up at him with a melancholy expression. Ashur's hands caress Tarquin's face and upper chest.

Tarquin Week Day 3: Scars / Tattoos

All military recruits receive a tattoo of Tevinter heraldry to help identify their bodies after battle, but sometimes the man survives longer than the tattoo

#DATarquinWeek #dragonagefanart #🩸
waist-up art of Tarquin who is sitting shirtless with his back hunched. With his right hand he touches a spot on his arm where a blurry Tevinter heraldry tattoo sits marred by two big scars.
