#nuroka

Serve me and rule. On the Day of Ascension, the corrupted cycle will end. On the Day of Ascension, you will rise beyond any master. Rise up. Higher. Ever higher… Or fall forever.

(They're my comfort characters + i gotta rez this blog, most of these work for both Voice of the Silenced AU and my Canon Adjacent AU)

Ma'lash fell for Nuroka first, and Nuroka in my AUs either never found out until Ascension, or knew and didn't care, alternatively he and Ma'lash had a longgg complicated history. (ofc I do have wholesome AUs too but that's another story)

Nuroka calls him Highlord most of the time, he doesn't like calling names but rather rank/position. For Nuroka to say Ma'lash's name it means something's serious. He never says any nicknames.

Ma'lash usually calls him First, sometimes Nuroka. ('Ruru' unfortunately isn't Canon and it's just something I call Nuroka bc it's cute, if anyone else wants to call him Ruru it's all good and I'll jump up and down in excitement yayy)

Nuroka's residence is roughly a ten minute walk from his workplace. The street that his house is on is dubbed The Main Street because it has all of the necessary shops and main office workplaces.

Ma'lash in comparison lives in the Highlord's Palace on a mountain named Kaihou. The mountain has historically been used as the residence for all Highlords since the Tal'darim moved to Slayn.

Nuroka is talented in martial arts and uses a sword, though he usually prefers using psionics to attack. He is physically stronger than Ma'lash.

Ma'lash in comparison enjoys showing off his physical abilities way more; he used a polearm named Starkiller before it was destroyed in the Battle of Ten. From then on, he used the Cursed Blade Uragiri (sword) given to him by Amon; he does have his own sword that he can create with his magic.

The four iron spikes that float around Ma'lash can be used as thrown projectiles. In my HCs he doesn't wear the massive psionic enhancer behind him, but rather a smaller halo.

Yee happy Pride Month! fr I wanted to make a post about them eventually so here we go- throws these Headcanons at everyone ^^

Tal'darim Gender and Sexuality Headcanons

Ma'lash- Transmasc Gay

Nuroka- Bisexual or Aroace depending on AU (imo Canon Ruru is Aroace)

Guraj- Non-Binary she/he Lesbian

Zenish- Bisexual

Alarak- Aromantic Pansexual

Ji'nara- Non-Binary she/they Bisexual

Amon's Champion- Transmasc Non-Binary he/they Aroace (I HC him as a clone of Ma'lash that Amon created)

Two I think would be nice to draw:

• I miss you. Is that allowed? Am I allowed to miss you?

• You were right. About all of it. I should have listened.

And one to write:

• I don't expect you to forgive me. I just needed you to know.

I chose those because from what you post about Ma'lash/Nuroka I think it suits them ^^

Whenever you have time and energy ofc <3

fr this kickstarted me into my actual comic career, thank you Arivia for the ask <3 <3 I'll be doing the other asks in separate posts bc I wanna make them very symbolic

First up we got Am I Allowed to Miss You? which is a 5 page short oneshot that actually captured the exact vibe of Nuroka & Ma'lash that I have, also I'm very happy that this was the vibe you got, it means I've succeeded as a writer <3 <3
