I'm rather proud of this one :)
I TRIED. SO HARD. I bought the game after finishing BG1&2 specifically for Halsin. And this man went "Hey, you ever seen a man fall out of a hole" and I
I didn't even like him at first
Hello I'm Popular Upcoming Manhwa Artist and these are my OCs. My protagonist is Averageman Strongmagicsword, and these ladies are Harem Member 1, Harem Member 2, Harem Member 3, and Harem Member 4. They're super different I promise!! Averageman Strongmagicsword is exactly 12 years old and he knows how to use Super Special Sword Techniques that nobody had ever thought of.
Also Astarion is perpetually naked for some reason. I haven't even opened my inventory and messed with clothes/armor, he's just naked
I've closed and reopened the game and he's still naked in his picture. I don't really care, but it's funny
new headcanon: he just likes Legion that much
So I'm doing a durge run with Legion and I'm trying to do a resist Bhaal but I can't resist the unique durge dialog. So I've already accidently killed Gale and broken my oath within the first 30 min.
Anyway Legion is an actual himbo that is Trying His Best
Every 21st century piece of writing advice: Make us CARE about the character from page 1! Make us empathize with them! Make them interesting and different but still relatable and likable!
Every piece of classic literature: Hi. It's me. The bland everyman whose only purpose is to tell you this story. I have no actual personality. Here's the story of the time I encountered the worst people I ever met in my life. But first, ten pages of description about the place in which I met them.
The bun jumped onto the seat and immediately fell off and went to cry under the couch 😔
I really do love how much you can tell about Doomguy just from looking around his room.
Like. Yeah, all the stuff you expect to see is there.
He's got his big ol' gun rack.
What appears to be a rock he uses as a punching bag.
Whetstone for sharpening his knives. All the Real Manly Violence Man stuff you'd think would be there.
But also a pair of nunchaku. Doomguy has never used nunchaku in any of his games. Those are just there because apparently he's the kind of dork who likes to play around with nunchaku and pretend he's doing kung fu.
Also a jump rope. Gotta keep his cardio up for all that running and jumping he has to do.
He reads Guns & Bullets magazine, but he also reads Science Monthly. Which makes sense that he'd be a bit of a techie since....
...he seems to have made his new Praetor Suit by disassembling the old one and rebuilding it to be higher-quality. You can see from the guts of the suit that it's powered armor, and he just... knows how to work that.
He's mad. Not stupid.
He also reads cooking magazines, of course. His only friend is Doom J.A.R.V.I.S.; He's gotta be self-sufficient. Though how he got those pizzas delivered is certainly beyond me.
And, of course, he has a collection of regular books that he likes to read as well. Though his taste in literature reveals a certain trend.
Also, he reads comics.
So many comics.
So, so many comics that he's left discarded comics lying around on his munitions cases. This man is a nerd.
And if you doubt his nerd cred, remember that he even keeps collectible toy displays. Doomguy is explicitly the kind of person who will go out of his way in a firefight with the forces of Hell itself to go snatch up a new toy for his collection.
He even has collectible toy figures hanging out on his computer desk. He put a little hard hat on one of them.
On the other side of his desk, he's got some leftover pizza from the inexplicable delivery service, plus takoyaki flavor chips and some candy. It seems Doomguy is a fruity candy kind of guy, not a chocolate guy. Man after my own heart.
Oh, you know he has shredded every single surface of the Fortress of Doom at some point. How do you think he learned to react so quickly in combat?
That is, of course....
When he's not ROCKING OUT with one of his three separate guitars. I bet the middle one's his favorite. It has a place of honor under the giant demon skull.
Some people might say that a record player and casette tapes are old-fashioned but cut him some slack; He's a Gen X-er.
Of course, there's one thing that any walk through Doomguy's room reveals more than anything else. The one thing that matters more than the world to him. The thing that drives him in his every waking moment.
He loved his bunny rabbit. My favorite thing about the portrait - Well, my favorite thing about it is that it's a piece of fanart that got officially canonized, but aside from that - is that he's wearing his Praetor Suit in it.
That's not something he brought from home. He commissioned an artist to paint that after becoming a Night Sentinel. He still loves his poor, late bunny rabbit.
And he keeps her close to him when he's home.
Listen. Listen. I am shaking my screen and frothing at the mouth. If you want a horror modpack to be found by the horror-loving people, maybe you should tag it as horror. Just a suggestion.
Listen I love ShadowMech and all, but
There is in fact a tag for horror themed modpacks. I love myself a hardcore pack and all, which this is technically, but there is in fact a tag for horror themed modpacks
It's a he/they situation. I take commissions for art and fics. I'm not going to respond to anything that's not an actual ask.
