art fill!

[(Anonymous)]

so uh! anon! i prompted something similar to this a couple prompt posts back and since no one filled it i, uh, Took Matters Into My Own Hands and drew what i imagined the "devil of dunwall" to look like. it's over here, along with a follow-up drawing a friend did: http://mattmurderdocks.tumblr.com/tagged/dishonored-au

it's not very fleshed out since it was just a random idea i had and really loved but i imagine claire would be sort of like piero joplin or anton sokolov? like a nurse turned plague scientist? and maybe foggy has the crappiest apartment in the legal district converted into a law office? maybe foggy and matt represent families wrongfully evicted on plague charges? and karen of course is their secretary but she does a lot of foot work because she's not afraid of weepers OR freaky teleporting masked vigilantes!

it's not much of a fill but i figured you might want it anyways :^D

I have no idea what Dishonored is, but the art looks awesome!! OMG, Matt's expression, it's so adorable. xD And the outfit's way cool!

anon! this is dishonored, it's one of my fav games ever: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dishonored

basically the premise is this: you are corvo attano, lord protector to the empress jessamine kaldwin. jessamine is assassinated, her daughter emily is kidnapped, and corvo is blamed for the murder and thrown in prison to be executed.

however, a group of loyalists manage to break corvo out of prison, and he goes into hiding. while in hiding he is branded on the hand by a being known as the outsider. people worship the outsider, but the state religious officials view him as a kind of satan and punish those found with his mark, or with whale charms or runes (these can channel his powers). the outsider's brand gives corvo powers such as being able to teleport (known as "blinking"), possess rats or even humans, bend time, etc.

basically, corvo is given tasks by the loyalists to eliminate (whether by assassination or by other means) key members of the aristocracy who worked together to have the empress assassinated, and to find emily, wherever she's been hidden. the less people you kill in this game, the better, as the ending will be more optimistic.

do you need more reasons to play this game? well, it's got incredible worldbuilding (the city of dunwall is located on the main island of gristol, but corvo is from another island in the empire known as serkonos). serkonans are treated as savages or just simply with disgust, so you'll overhear people referring to corvo in dismissive or even frightened tones, as they are very xenophobic. also the devs are very open to criticism and worked to treat women in the game and its downloadable stories better. there's going to be a sequel in which emily is the protagonist! and finally, there's an all-star voice cast including people like carrie fisher (princess leia!), chloe grace-moretz (hit girl!), lena headey (queen cersei!) and susan sarandon (a bunch of stuff!)

i went on kind of a ramble there but the story of it plus the sneaky parkour elements work super well with matt's abilities! there are also numerous factions like the bottle street gang, the dead eels, the hatters, and the brigmore witches for matt to fight as a marked vigilante.

SA (just very late, as it took me a while to get to the article and watch a YT trailer XD):

Ooh, that looks and sounds totally fun! The perspective is a little nauseating to me (I am weak and get motionsick in a heartbeat, so the parkouring is kind of @_@), but it looks like a lot of fun. :D POSSESSING RATS OMG. As a hack-and-slasher, trying to avoid killing people sounds hard... ;D But an interesting twist, and super A+++ on working in solid female characters! Thanks so much for the explanation - I'm definitely putting it on my maybe-list for future games! :D

art anon here: YEAH!! i'm not a huge fan of fps stuff myself but i really liked this game because it barely focuses on gunplay and i get shell shock (or whatever the equivalent is) from playing shooters for too long. this was a lot about patience and detecting enemies and i really appreciated that (though i'd be lying if i said it wasn't incredibly stressful, lmao)
