Arcann romance appreciation thread! Haters keep out please!❤

Wake up Hive!

Nothing to discuss today? Are we really leaving Arcann drown into the depth of the forum? He is worth more than that!

Fear not ... here I am to rescue you ... topic? uhmm ... head canon? ... okay okay okay ...

What colour lightsaber have you given Arcann? My one is using a weird shade of blue at the moment.

What if Arcann sensed something that would make him want to travel into the middle of Odessen's wilds alone? Would you allow him to go? Would your character go with him? Would you apply the Darth Marr slap of common sense to his face he'll be begging for his mask back? (Art by Fleeting-Sanity)

I left him with his original/default lightsaber. I don't like messing with companion's gears much. lol

Oh, Paul is creative this morning. Good!

So, Arcann has a purple/black lightsaber matching Nyx's. The advantage of having four of these crystals.

Depends. He is a grown up man and Nyx is not his mother. He wants to go alone, he goes alone. Buuuuuuut, if he wants company, who are we to say no.

I did not understand the last question...

Edit: What did you imagine he would be doing in the woods, Paul?
Edit2: Lol, did I wake up this morning? looking for Vaylin of course!

Ah ... so a three way tie between ...

Weird blue: I
Yellow: I
Purple-Black: I

I try

Asmodesu, any new song?

Paul, Vaylin is calling you.

*Dumps all active quests*

I'm coming!

I did not change his cristal, so he still has the yellow one, i may change to a more orange or golden color though or something else, i'll have to think about that.
Naeya's is light blue, maybe the same colour or something similar.
I don't know.

Iheaca had an interesting point in her last chapter.
What happens when Tenebrae leaves his host when he goes from Vititate's Voice to Valkorion or from Valkorion to Vitiate's host ? Are the original owners of the bodies traped inside their own mind and resurface when he leaves, which could cause some problems if they start acting weird (but maybe the Hand of any other people close to him keep the host captive while he's not here) ? Or did he wipe them out and the host is like an empty shell when he's not there ?

Do i ask myself too much questions ? Probably, but that can change quite a lot of things concerning Valkorion's children and whatever children Vitiate may have too.

He specifically says that he hollows out their mind, destroying the host mind completely. it's likely similar to his Children and servants that part of his thoughts, essence etc remains there controlling the host but his full attention is elsewhere as even Senya points out sometimes he'd be distant, not talking to anyone (presumably focusing on Vitiate host). So he likely never really loses control of any host, just not as actively focused in one or the other.

Yes, I know I voluntarily went the opposite way compared to what Charles had explained. For me it did simply not add up. Then he would be warmer when Vitiate is present? Are we really talking about the cold-minded, calculating and well known for his lack of emotion and empathy Vitiate?

Of course there are other ways to see it too. Vitiate could have been more present when Valkorion courted Senya, for whatever reason he did it. Maybe he had a plan, maybe Senya was totally manipulated. I have a hard time seeing him love her but it could be her perception and she is wrong. I have watched Senya's death and his intervention and I cannot see any bit of regret or tenderness in it, only an immense coldness.
Then his lack of interest for his kids is because he was away again. But then why did he take the vow he took in the trailer? The vow does not only convey coldness and absence, it conveys rejection, which is a far more "active" feeling.

So, well, despite the fact that I tend to stick to the game on many aspects and research a lot before writing, I consciously decided to change that part. :-) And Nyx might be wrong by the way, she even says it herself and offers a less nice alternative.
