Headcanon of Alexander’s true form.
Floofy necked Bebe Alexander. One day he will be big and strong, for now all he can do is floof his fluffy neck out and hiss like a mad goose.
Heck yes! Everyone is welcome to celebrate the possum seer!
When is Astor Week?
November 14, 2021 - November 20, 2021
Hopefully this gives everyone enough time to prepare and also incorporate whatever we learn in the new DLC.
What kind of content is allowed?
Original content of any kind related to Astor from Age of Calamity.
Of course, art and fanfiction will be the bread and butter of the content, but other types of content are acceptable as well (GMVs, memes, theories, essays, playlists ect.) Get creative!
Also all ships are allowed. This includes OCs and self-shippers. This week is going to be as inclusive as humanly possible. This is a ship and let ship event.
What kind of content isn’t allowed?
Explicit/NSFW visual art isn’t allowed on tumblr. Although you may post your NSFW art on a different platform (such as twitter) where it’s allowed and create a SWF version for tumblr.
M and E rated fanfics ARE allowed however, but should be posted in full to AO3 and then linked to tumblr, with an indication that it’s an M or E rated fic.
How do I participate?
Use @astorweek and I will reblog it. If your content is outside of tumblr (such as youtube, AO3) create a post linking to said content, and I will reblog your work. As long as your post contains some kind of indication you wish your work to be included in the event, it will be relogged here. (I usually check the #Astor tag regularly) If I happen to miss your work, you can message me, as well.
Tagging conventions I will use on this blog:
Astor X Canon Character - #Astorx(insert name of canon character here)
Astor X OC - #AstorxOC
selfship - #selfship
NSFW - #lemon
Some more headcanons for our favorite bastard
- In Rutoh village, Zellard is the village baby sitter. He has enough patience to handle roudy children. Zellard often acts as their mentor as well.
-Zellard’s ears are his weak point. If you can reach them, give them a good rub and he’ll be blissed out in no time. His ears flutter when he’s happy too.
-Though Zellard was once a powerful hunter, after retiring he sold most of his weapons and armor. Some items were given to old friends or displayed in his house, a distant reminder of his past.
-Zellard doesn’t speak much about his past and keeps his emotions to himself. He only provides his opinions when he deems it needed. Instead Zellard prefers to speak on current matters as to deflect any unwanted questions about himself.
-He was once more open to others, but that was long ago... Red was one of the few humans he ever vented to, the young human being one of his few friends in his later years. We know how that ended....
-Thanks to his long life, Zellard has plenty of skills. Drawing, poetry, and lute playing are some of the things he does in his spare time. Sometimes he plays music to the children to get them to sleep.
-Zellard himself is a light sleeper in part due to his years as an ever-alert hunter, and because of bad nightmares. He drinks soothing herbal tea to help his nerves, but doesn’t dare bring his struggles up to anyone. Besides, they don’t need to know, right?
-Lastly, Zellard has a worldly taste, but he will always come back to Rutoh village’s classic crullers. Crullers aren’t just Alwin’s specialty, but a village tradition, and a snack the otherwise fit and athletic Zellard can’t resist.
A larger picture of Alexander’s true form.
I’ve been trying to figure out how to draw Alexander to reflect his character properly, and I think I finally managed to come up with something that satisfies me. Also I miiight have found myself liking this loose, sketchy sort of art style - it doesn’t take as much time, and it leaves more room for expression. Also I’ve been practicing anatomy, so posting more full body drawings in the future is not out of the question 😄
The meat moss got them. 😞 This picture was distantly inspired by Amnesia Rebirth, a pretty solid follow up to TDD. IF you have played the game, then you may know what this picture is referring to.
Wonder if he’s trying to catch the eye of a certain Englishman.
Bebe Xander and his lil pride blanky. The colours may not all be in the right place, but his heart sure is.
