two bust drawings of an elven grey warden from dragon age. one bust is facing the side but her head is turned towards the viewer, while the other has her back to the viewer as she looks over her shoulder. rivera tabris has short, dark brown/auburn hair, dark brown eyes, and is wearing the typical grey warden rogue armor.

some sketches of my warden, rivera tabris! well they were. supposed to be just sketches... got a lil out of hand.

YUP !!!!!!!!!

A greyscale drawing. The individual has their back turned, looking back over their shoulder. They are dark-skinned with a soulpatch, a scar over their face, and a cross earring. They are wearing a garden apron, a black durag that drapes down to their mid-back, and a shirt. The shirt's back has obscured text on it, "F_rs Flora." On their right bicep is a bearded vulture with flames flaring from the neck and tail-feathers.

love giving someone a weird bird to have. or, rather make them the bird (phoenix shapeshifter) #oc #orimakesart

the gender dimorphism of armor pisses me off sooooo bad i hate you 2009 and also perpetual sexism. i kinda liked not having her in gw armor in origins for narrative reasons but when i do another playthru im Absolutely using it LOL
