About A. R. K.

hello! my name is Aziren, and between university exams and assignments I'm an aspiring fantasy writer. i'm also a DM for a multitude of TTRPGs outside from D&D, but still mostly fantasy. i've been a fanfic writer and a worldbuilder for years now, so i hope you'll enjoy my works

my main wip is Revolve, alongside its own custom TTRPG system Trick of Life. as of yet, they are both unlikely to be published soon. but while those get worked on, i'd love to chat (in posts or dms) about anythng between worldbuilding, theories, plotting or just chatting about anything XD

under the cut you can find more information about my works, as well as the relative taglist posts. my askbox is open for any ask games, and i'd love to be in any tag games!

happy STS to you, thanks for the ask! i'm gonna work with the Elegy to the Desperate Stars crew, since at least they're familiar with the concept of Easter lmao

Aira ✵ there's probably more cracked eggs than not, though she's very apologegtic about it. she still colors them all, though with very simple zig-zag patterns and three colors at most. the colors are randomly chosen. genuinely could be the ugliest easter eggs ever

Ele ✵ a lot of marble effect and pastel colors blending into each other. pretty, but still fairly simple-looking. at least the colors match with her since she picks different color palettes for different eggs

Aleji ✵ starts with a solid color base then goes absolutely wild on tiny details and patterns. the most painstakingly made eggs ever. anything from geometric designs to floral designs goes. you ever seen the decorative plates that a grandma hangs on walls? same vibe

Beriel ✵ has given up entirely on trying to handpaint the eggs. however she has come up with sixteen different arrays to spell the colors onto the eggs in a variety of patterns. which... is a success i suppose?

Dani ✵ also starts from a solid color base, but then he paints cartoony animal faces on them. so you'll have eggs that looks like foxes and cats and dogs and birds and, why not, dinosaurs. at least one of them ends up chucked at Aira's head though

Basics

Work Specific

Personality

Vergideor is the most insidious of the members of the Lightwatch. while part of it is because she operates largely under her civilian identity, her mannerism is her greatest weapon. she acts affable, kind and innocent, chatting amiably with strangers, patients and friends. however her memory is impeccable and she is incredibly cunning. nobody would ever suspect her of pulling strings

[backstory and taglist under the cut] [TW: Death]

there's characters whose design i pour over for years, tying it to their backstory and trying to nail the vibe, the style, the palette, how many different identities and looks do they have...

and then there's gailkyane, whom i thought of once, went "whore" and that's been his whole thing in every iteration and outfit since
