MOURN WATCH WEEK 2026 - DAY 7

Memento Mori | Memento Vivere

i ended up taking longer on this one than planned because i got too into the details. anyway, I think a lot about the kind of cool festivals the MW could participate in, which Bart would attend in body paint and not a lot else

anyway this is the first time i've successfully completed one of these -week things yipppeeeeee

MOURN WATCH WEEK 2026 - DAY 6

Politics | Benefactors

Bart didn't handle the fallout from the War of the Banners very well at all and Myrna sending him away was very much a "let big sister handle this" move

MOURN WATCH WEEK 2026 - DAY 5

Eternal Gold | Memorial Gardens

proportions on this one are kinda screwy but it is what it is. I originally planned to just do something displaying (almost) all of Bart's gold including piercings, but iiii wanted to do their wedding in the gardens :)

(this one's late again, finishing up todays sketch as well)

MOURN WATCH WEEK 2026 - DAY 4

Lichdom | Mortality

(bit late on this one due to class & i didn't feel like doing Bart's tattoos for this one, forgive me lol)

Professors Volkarin and Ingellvar are getting up there in age but they still sneak off to their shared mausoleum for a little time together.

been thinking about Dysmas' self-esteem and came to the conclusion that he would genuinely not believe Wyll is physically or sexually attracted to him. luckily Wyll is happy to prove him wrong :)

MOURN WATCH WEEK 2026 - DAY 3

Eyes of the Dead | Humblest of Creatures

Bart's kitty!!! i am ashamed to say i haven't named her yet. But as a young Watcher, Bart likes to feed Necropolis cats (you can't tell me they don't have a population of stray cats). Like normal living cats. One day, there's an undead cat amongst them, which isn't particularly weird for Bart. She takes a liking to him, so he scoops her up and takes her home and makes her fancy jewelry and wraps to wear.

MOURN WATCH WEEK 2026 - DAY 2

Academia | Expedition

Bart has done plenty of exciting adventures and expeditions and whatever but post-Veilguard he goes back home to work on his Watcher career. He'll eventually be Professor Ingellvar* but for now he's holding Johanna hostage as his study buddy (his kitty is there too)

*technically he is now Bartek Ingellvar-Volkarin but that's a mouthful and would get confusing with the existing professor Volkarin

MOURN WATCH WEEK 2026 - DAY 1

Vows and Oaths | Rituals and Ceremonies

aka Bart Lore Week

Bart is inducted into the Watch by Myrna somewhere in his early 20s I presume. He's still a rebellious hothead at this age but a little less embittered and the day he became an official member of the Mourn Watch is one of his best memories.

Granted it was mostly downhill from there because he couldn't get along with anyone and made decisions that pissed everyone off but being a Watcher meant and still means everything to Bart.

@mournwatchweek lets goooo, here comes the Mourn Watch problem child himself!

15. that one thing you see in fanart all the time

I have seen. a number of durges with black & white specialboy cruella de vil ass hair. one of them is my Dysmas. i realized after designing him that everyone else had the same idea. and you know what? it kicks ASS and we're all so right for doing it. come with me and make your inner edgy middle schooler on deviantart proud

16. you can't understand why so many people like this thing (characterization, trope, headcanon, etc)

Gale as a dom. like maybe its just me maybe he just seems very step-on-able to ME but i think he belongs in the cuck chair. i think we should use Command on him. give him premature ejaculation. hes used to astral projection sex w/ mystra so hes incredibly awkward when you fuck normal style. all that showing off is just him at the top of the self-esteem tower of terror about to come sliding down at any second

17. there should be more of this type of fic/art
