New updated pinned link for my stories & such!

Jamais Vu: A cursed bard struggles to uncover the mysteries surrounding their crusade. Can Yunessa survive the mysteries surrounding the 5th crusade and themselves or will they find a fate worse than death?

archiveofourown.org/works/46776307
Yunessa, bard by trade. A cursed, but friendly elf hiding the weight of their burdens from the world. Yunessa standing in a graveyard looking deep in thought as it rains heavily in Kenabres/Drezen. As the Knight Commander/ Companion notice them they offer Yunessa the lyre the Bard forgot. 'Ah, my lyre' Yunessa says to the KC/Companion. 'I knew I'd left it behind. I didn't know it'd bring you here, sorry. Keep staying out of the rain. I need to be in the rain and feel this.' Yunessa looks to their magicked bracelet that keeps them safe from the curse, their expression twisted with anxiety. 'We've talked about my curse and the problems that come from it. But even with the memories gone, the feelings remain. The lack of memories is just... normal. But I still feel. I feel and that's the worst part. I see things that trigger a memory and I feel.' Yunessa describes their curse, how the memories are gone, but the heart still remembers and how much it weighs them down behind their stereotypical cheery, quippy Bard persona. Behind the first panel are the images of roses, garlic, and cake slices as Yunessa describes their curse to the KC/Companion. 'I hate roses, do you know that? I can't tell you why. I just do. I love foods with garlic. I don't like that buttered cake icing. But I like that little ah- that bar that looks like condensed chocolate.' Distraught Yuness puts a hand over their eyes as the other shakes. "Normally I can hide it. But this night out of all the others... I want to mourn. I want to cry and I just... who was i? Who did I love so deeply to mourn even when their memory is gone?' As they finish describing the burden of a lack of memory but still having the emotions without context, Yunessa looks back to the KC/Companion and offers a smile. 'This crusade we're on- it almost feels like it's a home. But somehow the word home just made me want to sob when the thought came to me.' Yunessa rakes a hand through their rain soaked hair before reaching a hand out towards their lyre. "Are you cold? Come on, let's head back.... home. Let's go home together."

Who are you? ✨🪞

I've wanted a reference sheet of Bella for ages and I'm *so* happy with how @dissonantartz.bsky.social brought this to life. I love Bella's default/camp outfit and this is amazing one-sheet for future things I commission.

Thank you again! ❤️

#Arabella 🔨 #BG3 #OC #Paladin
A reference sheet by @DissonantArtz depicting my OC Arabella, a tall elven paladin. She is shown in her camp outfit (a blue and purple top and brown trousers) and her everyday armour (a silver, black and red combo of plate armour and chainmail). Her stats are shown: 17 (strength), 12 (dexterity), constitution (14), intelligence (8), wisdom (10) and charisma (15). We can also see her black warhammer and a close up of her pink eyes and her three bird tattoo.

nobody will remember:
- your salary
- how "busy" you were
- how many hours you worked

people will remember:
- that one person or fictional character you could NOT shut up about, you made sure they never forget

Quote posting to say that right now is a bit of an emergency commissions situation !

I'm broke as shit, and it's either food or rent right now (it's rent, i have pasta in my closet so i'm not dying yet, don't worry too much) (but worry just enough to buy art for me please)
Please share ! Thanks <3

💥Commissions are OPEN !💥

Here is my commission price list ! I draw anything and everything your heart desire, just ask me !
Feel free to DM me here or discord (@Sir_Lazz).
Note that prices are flowy ! not everything can be put in a box, so feel free to discuss prices!
Pixelart/3D prices below !
Lazz's prices for character commissions. Sketches are 35€, mildly rendered images are 70, fully rendered are 100€ and up. Prices may vary and those categories are fluid. Lazz's price for bigger illustrations. Simpler illustrations that are mainly monochrome are 130€ and up, and really detailed ones are 160€ and up. Those are not set categories but rather fluid, as no two illustrations are the same. Lazz's price sheets for icons and heraldry. Most simpler icons are 30€, can increase to 40€ with more complicated design or lots of vfx, or up to 60 and more for very detailed pieces of iconography

The Rescue - an Ul-Khari Aeldari Wraithlord unearths a trapped Guardian from the crashed ruins of their Craftworld.
I *think* this was only a 1/4 page, so relatively small.

Feels like an archive dive, but this was published in 2024. What even is time!?
