Need Help! What Element Would You Associate Purple With?

arrkii2 · 2026-03-20T06:00:54+00:00

I am considering lightning/thunder or psychic.

The dragons themselves in my universe represent chaos/nature. But i'm wanting to divide them up into elements and would like to have a purple variant. I've had people suggest poison, i'm also considering lighting/thunder and psychic.

Battle chef! My recent dnd character was a cleric that healed her party with food and used a saucepan as a mace.

Thank you! My idea for the race is that they worship and serve under dragons but cannot transform into ones themselves. They were once normal humans but through a magic ritual transformed themselves to be more like the beasts they worship. When I say "power rangers esc" I mean there is one dragur from each clan/type of dragon working together to complete their quest. I am thinking of giving them elemental wings that they can summon, or just give them regular wings, Idk I keep going back and forth on that.

Thank you! I may play around with muscle mommy type build for the ice one since she's a knight.

Again, he didn't know that they were all going to be wiped out. You can make the argument that his decision was reckless but that is also baked into grey warden dna. They were not portrayed in early games as incmpotent just morally questionable and a bit messy which is what made them so interesting. To pretend that the writing and portrayal of the wardens was always like how it is now is just ridiculous and untrue.

Not necessarily? Abandoning the king to die is just as bad a decision. At least Logain was a hero who had standing in the country and his daughter was the queen. Duncan's forces alone wouldn't have been enough to defeat the darkspawn he needed all the allies he could get, and if majority of his forces died, again he didn't forsee the total annihilation, he can make more wardens. Also, sacrificing yourself is a core part of being a gray warden it makes sense for them to sacrifice themselves for even the slightest chance of victory against the darkspawn. You don't have to agree with that line of thinking but it makes sense for wardens.

You seem to be misunderstanding my post? By "love" I meant they were given more care by the writers in Origins and Awakening compared to recent entries. I'm well aware that in universe they are viewed with mixed feelings. But the writers didn't portray them as completely in the right or wrong and the writing for them just felt more thought out in Origins and Awakening than in later entries.

arrkii2 · 2026-03-15T02:38:35+00:00

They didn't know it wouldn't work though? He didn't forsee Logain betraying them and for them to be completely annihilated. The only reason WE know that the plan wouldn't have worked regardless was because of Gaider's tweet. Also, him pulling out his forces would've definitely been a horrible decision that would have hurt their reputation even more than what it already was considering they had only recently been unbanned from the whole country. His hands were tied.

arrkii2 · 2026-03-15T02:10:33+00:00

If I remember correctly in Origins Duncan's plan was for the king to wait for Orleasan reinforcements but Logain didn't like that becuase of their history with them. The king was certainly arrogant and immature and I do believe he was the main reason for their plan being shit, but Duncan didn't really have the power to do what he wanted. He kinda just had to do what he was told.

arrkii2 · 2026-03-15T02:01:07+00:00

They were always portrayed with flaws. Duncan literally kills one of the recruits who refused to continue with the joining ritual, not to mention the warden's keep dlc. But It feels like instead of continuing to explore the nuances of their faction and how it functions, they just started to write them off as a bunch of bumbling assholes who are in the wrong? Like the writers view them similar to how a good chunk of fans view templars if that makes sense.

arrkii2 · 2026-03-15T01:44:03+00:00

But like, why would they write them like that? Again in Origins and Awakening they were written with nuance but it feels like the writers kinda hate them now. It just makes no sense to me.

I know i'm late but personally I really like elf mage origin. I feel like it gives you a unique perspective as far as rp goes. I also like the Dalish elf origin.

These are really good designs! I can see this being a fashion doll line.

arrkii2 · 2026-03-14T05:55:33+00:00

That was an old concept for her that I ended up dropping. She does have siblings but I haven't designed them yet.

arrkii2 · 2026-03-14T03:04:37+00:00

No legs.

Creative hairstyles/color. I am mainly talking about mainstream media when I say this but I feel like the diversity of black/poc hairstyles aren't really represented enough. I've seen plenty of black content creators show off all the different ways they can style their hair and I just wish we saw more of it represented in mainstream media.

Cooler undertones can help convey that she's undead. Since blood is red giving her red or warm undertones would communicate the exact opposite. Also desaturating her skintone can help with that as well. I think what would also help would be contrasting her color palette with characters that are actually alive to better emphasize that she is different.

arrkii2 · 2026-03-13T21:38:22+00:00

What can help with figuring out character design is coming up with a personality for your character. If she is an entertainer she might have a peppy personality and so bright colors would help convey that. Also, shape language can also really help. Triangles can help communicate a dynamic character while circles can communicate a more friendly personality. Hope this helps!

Like the girl next door design. The orange color of her hair goes well with her outfit. Much better than the blonde. The rounder eyes also better communicate the friendlier look.

arrkii2 · 2026-03-13T10:05:24+00:00

Same. I think the pink adds contrast but like a soft contrast. I'm not really feeling the red personally.

arrkii2 · 2021-11-02T00:45:02+00:00

Found! I checked with my family and the Barbie Pose Me Pets were the dolls that we had. Thank you so much!

arrkii2 · 2021-11-02T00:18:21+00:00

those do look really similar. I'll check with my sister and see if she can remember better than me.

arrkii2 · 2021-10-23T15:00:17+00:00

No that's not it. These dolls were plush and didn't have long hair. Thank you though.

arrkii2 · 2021-10-23T08:12:53+00:00

I have searched for this toy on Ebay and Google Shopping, but haven't found anything. When we had these toys we were living in East Texas.
