Description

Task 9 for Show your OC losing their temper and the reason.


This is going to require a bit of story telling, so be prepared


First of all, the young man in the picture is Prince Calaen.

He's the reincarnation of King Ragnall, who was shown in this picture as an illusion -

That fancy sword he's got is Ragnall's, he's just come back from retrieving it at Iolanthe's request so that he can fulfill the Gods' prophecy.


There's a little trick about Ragnall's sword. One of its qualities is that it makes it impossible to cast a spell on the person holding it. Iolanthe doesn't know this, she just thought it had healing spells (which it does as well). When Calaen first showed up at Iolanthe's, she cast a spell on him toΒ  "encourage" his attraction to her. It held until he left and nearly died getting the sword. So, when he returns, the spell isn't on him. Iolanthe tries to cast it again, all the while trying to convince Calaen that his needing to have the reincarnation of Eriantielle is not necessary. That she can do anything that little peasant can and much better and he deserves someone far more elegant and powerful as his future queen.


Calaen disagrees and refuses her, mainly because he is now immune to her spell casting. He's also disgusted because he can feel the spell attempt and he's spent most of his life under spell control and really hates the idea of being manipulated yet again.


The refusal pushes Iolanthe over the brink. Furious at his denial of her, she decides that he's being controlled by the reincarnation of Eriantielle, not that it's something she herself has brought about. So, she lashes out in fury, determined to destroy the one thing that stands between her and the future she feels she deserves. As you can see, when a magic user loses their temper their eyes glow


The anger of the sorceress and her actions have shocked Calaen so thoroughly that he's too stunned yet to go into action, horrified at what Iolanthe is doing, watching as Iolanthe attempts to kill the person she sees as her rival.


Unfortunately for Iolanthe, her actions are going to have consequences, for Calaen won't be shocked for long.


Iolanthe's little critters are watching all of this from the shadows, wondering how it's going to end.


Iolanthe's dress is a callback to her original inspiration I'm curious if anyone recognizes it (my daughter did but she knows my inspirations already )


I need to redesign that sword . . . it is amazingly complicated



Magic effectsΒ  by and unknown lighting brush (if anyone recognizes it let me know )


Iolanthe and Calaen belong to me, aka

This is so intense, and I was on the edge reading what was going on. I love Iolanthe and all her story and actions like her motives just feel understandable to me, and now how it comes undone for her and her own thoughts as it happens. What a roller coaster! What happens next I have to know!

What happens next?



Let's just say she pays the price for nearly killing the person, and Calaen is the payee.

Man, I've read some stories and manga that some characters try to win another's affections by underhanded means... (mind control spells, potions, etc.)

Unfortunately, it seems that Calaen would prefer free will over what Iolanthe wants him to do...

Yeup! Iolanthe isn't above cheating at this point, she's decided it's her turn with Raghnall/Calaen She's waited long enough all alone . . . she feels like she deserves it.

Calaen has issues with being controlled, he was bespelled for a long time and is still dealing with the side effects of that. Also, he's got to deal with the fact that he's the reincarnation of someone else and has quite a few identity issues he's still dealing with as well. Any bit of free will he can manage he treasures and has a very negative reaction to outside influence. Iolanthe crossed several lines that he's not going to forgive.

Wow you did such a great job at drawing her anger! The way her hair flies out fiercely behind her and her glowing eyes and the blue lightning! She looks terrifying when she's angry! It's especially horrifying when you think of the reasons she is angry and how twisted her affections are. Yikes!

I can't seem to place the dress, but I am curious of Iolanthe's original inspiration.Β

Yep, she is scary when she's mad

Iolanthe's original inspiration was Queen Beryl from Sailor Moon. She's verrrryyy different now but there are definitely things about her that are still reminiscent

Never good to anger a sorceress or wizard When they get mad things tend to blow up


Thank you! Calaen manages to get out of this unscathed physically (Iolanthe would never hurt HIM). Unfortunately, he ends up with some emotional scarring

Very vivid and great work with the expressions here. Her hair is very naturally situated as she moves in that pose. This just shows how much she doesn't like the idea of someone, especially someone like Calean, disagreeing with her.
