"For all the things that you never ever told me, and all the smiles that are ever gonna haunt me"
Had to take a break from drawing for a bit cause I moved into my first apartment and started a new job! So I doodled my doomed sibling oc's to get back in the groove. Lyrics from the ghost of you by my chemical romance, and more about the characters here!

Some more details about the magic system for planetaries because I am incapable of shutting up about my oc's lately
Sun magic: fire and energy. Color is gold
Moon magic: sleep, dreams, and subconscious. Color is green
Mercury magic: speed and telepathy. Color is orange
Venus magic: illusions and healing. Color is pink
Mars magic: strength, rock, and metal. Color is red
Jupiter magic: electricity and gravity. Color is purple
Saturn magic: time and shields. Color is pale yellow
Uranus magic: wind/air. Color is light blue
Neptune magic: water/ice. Color is dark blue
Pluto magic: death and decay. Color is black
Each person is born with a mark somewhere on their body that indicates which celestial deity is their patron. For example, Kalys's sun mark is very visible on her neck
Every celestial deity is associated with a color, and the person's mark will glow faintly with that color when they use their magic
Everyone has the potential to learn how to use the magic of their celestial body, but most choose not to without good reason. I like to think of it like how martial arts is in the real world: pretty much anyone can learn karate, but it takes so much time and training to learn that most won't unless they have a use for it (though many also do just for fun, of course)
The specific powers associated with each deity were inspired partly by the actual attributes of the celestial bodies (ex. mercury magic includes speed because mercury has the fastest orbit), partly by the attributes of the roman gods they're named for (ex. jupiter magic includes electricity because jupiter was the god of thunder), and partly by general cultural associations (ex. moon magic includes sleep because most people are asleep when the moon is out). I'd be happy to further explain my thought process behind each different magic type if anyone asks teehee
The celestial deities are themselves gods and are referred to both as the names of the planets/roman gods and the equivalent greek gods (ex. Neptune referred to interchangeably as Neptune or Poseidon). The sun deity is referred to primarily as Apollo but sometimes as Helios, and the moon deity is referred to interchangeably as Artemis, Diana, and Selene
Important to note however that the deities are very much not the same deities as the ones from greek and roman mythology, I just use the same names because it felt right to have multiple names for each deity and would get confusing to make up my own when there are obvious options right there
Been thinking more about Planetaries again - on two levels: should we anticipate more appearances from them in the main sequence books to come? Also, while we hear from Earth's planetary, I don't recall the *Earth* speaking up - in-universe, is that something that happens often? Or is it more like the Powers, where any 'speaking' is strictly an indirect matter? (Can celestial bodies be wizards? ... Wait, we know that one, silly question. XD)
In reverse order:
(b) When a planet has a species sufficiently evolved (in the wizardly sense, which is complex) for a member of it to hold the office of Planetary, they do the speaking for the planet. Worlds without sufficiently advanced species, or holding the space for one that may appear at a later date, will either speak for themselves or nominate another world's Planetary to handle that for them, depending on the situation that obtains. Worlds that are the dominant species will, as we've seen, also speak for themselves.
(a) You're not really expecting me to answer that, are you? Didn't think so. (chortle)
Heroics List: Instanced Vs. Not Instanced Flashpoints, Operations, and Heroic Missions
Posting this list again because I find myself using it so often. I level very, very quickly and part of that is me just soloing instanced heroics.
Some more of my oc designs :D
+some more info about all of them and the story under the cut (last post here has more context)

Since people wanted to see my oc's... first fully colored art I've done of any non-fandom related characters in literal years omg I really missed drawing these guys
Some yapping about these two and the universe/story they're from under the cut if you want more context :D
Heroics List: Instanced Vs. Not Instanced Flashpoints, Operations, and Heroic Missions
Double xp is coming up again (11/28 - 12/5) so I thought I’d share this list. I like to run heroics because it’s great xp and credits but I go nuts doing open world heroics because I get too stressed out about people ganking stuff. This list will tell you which heroics are completely instanced so you can do just those instead if you’d like. Hope it helps. :)
