MEET THE CHAPLAIN!!

MEET THE CHAPLAIN!!

(ELINA POSTS ANOTHER OC IN A MILLENNIA? WOWZA!!)

So I’ve been getting into Team Fortress Two for quite some while, and during that time I created a tenth class OC of my own called The Chaplain!! Real name Maryam Kwashiokor, The Chaplain seems to be the most innocent and lighthearted of the crazed mercenaries as she is titled ‘The Nicest Girl In Teufort’ but behind that Goody-Two-Shoes persona, she is a very stressed and lonely girl, she’s quite the panicking worrywart who always seems to crumble under the slightest bit of pressure, she’s the kind of woman to see someone walk stupidly to a puddle only for her to step in and.. fall herself flat on the puddle to let the person walk all over her, her almost girl-crazy devotion to her faith is the glue that keeps herself together without finally snapping under the pressure of having such a dangerous job as a mercenary, despite her cowardly and frail persona, she can manage to take care of herself in combat and for others in the battlefield, possessing a feisty agility and speed to make her always quick to her feet coupled with her being skilled with all sorts of weaponry and being able to use objects (like a yardstick or sharp pencil) to her use in combat, what’s really surprising is that she’s certified for a real ass goddamn chainsaw, but the only thing that Maryam wants in her batshit insane job and her comedically tragic life is to just go through with it to live another day or maybe get enough days for a vacation.. what a poor unlucky girl..

(Also here is her voice-claim!! I was gonna use Lisa Hannigan but Irada Delsink and Jenny Funnell seem like very good fits for her as well!)

(And also some art I did of her! As well as a kin onion for folks to understand her character a little more.. I’ve been on a chaplain drawing spree so expect more of it to come!)

i hate when ppl act like the only reason to not like a "sad" ending is because you can't take it or whatever. personally as a tragedy enjoyer, i hate a poorly written ending. i hate an ending that is just kind of a bummer. i hate an ending that feels mean-spirited to the audience. i hate an ending that's redundant. i love a sad ending that is thematically consistent, poignant, and bespoke to the rest of its narrative.

OH MY GODDDD!!!/POS

I’m not very well-versed in Happy Tree Friends BUT if your trio of kooky sumerian gods were actually canon to the show, I’d push everyone away just for them, words can’t describe how even though I don’t know shit about the source, I love these three so badly! And the amount of detail and depth you go into them is so astounding and AUGHHHHH!! And quick question! What would they look like as humans? I gotta know!!

Holy cow! This was such a nice message to receive thank you!!! Don’t worry I got plenty of Idol Trio stuff planned and in the works! 💪😤

Basically htf is just…Cute critters being violently killed by random silly bouts of bad luck only to come back for the next episode. Think Looney Tunes but gorey ehehehehe

And lemme clarify, the three are not Sumerian, they are Mesozoic cave people (well technically burrow people but yknow what I mean) However, considering people didn’t exist back during the Cretaceous….and considering that ancient Mesopotamian/Sumerian/Assyrian civilization has the oldest historical records to go off of, it does provide a lot of inspiration for them. Specifically for First Civilization.

But I also pull a lot from the little bit we know about Neanderthal life as well as many various Paleolithic hunter/gatherer societies such as the Ohallo II site and the ancient Natufian settlements. These sources help especially for the Dino-Sore days era of their lives. But of course, there’s no WRITTEN records from these times so it makes it a bit difficult when it comes to research and understanding how these people really lived. You can only tell so much from stone tools and bones sadly.

Because of this, the trio has been inspired by a hodgepodge of a bunch of different ancient cultures, not just one. Not to mention the occasional fictional liberties I take with them. I mean it’s a cartoon after all. ;D

Shoot I rambled a lot ANYWAYS

the HILARIOUS thing about this message is that literally the day before I had gotten this in my inbox I actually DID do some human trio doodles while at dnd so I went ahead and finished one of ‘em up for you! :D

It’s been a little while since I’ve drawn humans so forgive me hehehe Again thank you for asking this humanifying them has been so much fun!!!!

“long hair on guys doesn’t make them less masculine. think keanu reeves, jason momoa, danny trejo, or the guy at your local dive bar who rides a motorcycle”

*the crowd nods*

“so long hair doesn’t necessarily determine masculinity”

*the crowd, more hesitant, still nodding*

“butches can have long hair—“

*GUNSHOT*
