Send a character or two and a prompt to my askbox, and I’ll see what I can do. 🙂  My OCs or canon characters are both cool. Mass Effect, TMNT, and DA are all okay, Sewers to Stars prompts are very welcome! (OCs include Branwen Lavellan, Simon Trevelyan, Maeve Surana, Coran Aeducan, Jocelyn Hawke, Aderyn Hawke, Val Shepard, Renee Shepard, Artemisia Shepard)

Ooooh, this looks fun, and I need some warm up prompts for this week. Canon characters and OCs are good! Ariadne Trevelyan, Kylie Lavellan, Anaya Trevelyan, Ostwick crew from Joy Cometh, Olivia Shepard, Vanessa Shepard, Evangeline Shepard, Nora Vakarian.

Ooh, cliches. I know I haven’t been the best about prompts lately, but I’d love to give this a try.
