Yes. He has faith in his ability to avoid it, thanks to his skills and training, but he does fear it happening someday. He doesn't want to leave Rhys and he's terrified of where he'll end up - he's seen the Fade before and does NOT want to go back there.

LOOKIT the baby beans 🥹💜
As always Fox has done an INCREDIBLE job of drawing my boy as an angsty teenager 😍 showing the twins something very dangerous I expect 🤭
Thank you so much for bringing this glorious mental image of ours to life, Fox!!! 🥰
#ElionDeRiva #SorinCandide #KinaCandide
19 year old Elion focusing really hard on what he’s demonstrating, handling poisons and not wanting to get anything on the twins. He dyes his hair black during this point of life, but it fades to gray in between dyes (right now lightest at porous ends) Kina and Sorin are 12 and have been staying under Chance’s care until healthy and settled enough to begin training. They start out going to every class together because they’re still feral, inseparable kids but end up attaching to Elion Kina is especially focused and interested in the subject because of her connection to poisons and wants to know antidotes as well. She has bangs to cover the demon mark on her forehead. Sorin is just curious and was a lot quieter at this point, so just sticking close to where they’re comfortable (currently Elion and Kina) they’re in long sleeves to cover up all the scars and the demon mark is exposed, but they’re wearing their hair parted to cover the burn scar on their face
BABIES!!!

Elion likes it very much if it's from Rhys, and not at all from almost anyone else—especially if it's from more than one person at a time. Anxiety central, that.
In contrast, Santiago LOVES attention, especially from his partner(s) or someone he's interested in 😏

Meraad - friendliest bean you will ever meet 🥰
Santiago - also very friendly. Sometimes it's a problem 😈
Elion - friendly but socially anxious 😅
Felix - a more cautious bean 🫣
Mahanon - do not approach without invitation 😬

Post your OC and let people assume things about them
Is there anything people don't know about him by now? Idek 😆 but it feels like a while since I answered any questions about him 🤔
#ElionDeRiva
Elion: Simple Man, by Lynyrd Skynyrd - in the style of Shinedown's cover ( youtu.be/rgFQ6WmxdMs ). He'd have to be pretty drunk to do it, but he'd KILL it 😤
Santiago: Bohemian Rhapsody, quite poorly. But he'd get the whole room singing along 🤭
#ElionDeRiva #SantiagoCantori
👇
Elion: I'd get stared at for a full minute while he decides whether he wants to kill me or not, before he'd stomp off to find Rhys because at least SOMETHING good came out of what I put him through 🥲
Santiago: Yeah I'm not surviving that one. 😬

Been listening to Daughtry lately and now I can't get modern-AU musician!Elion out of my head 😩🫠
He's the singer and keyboardist of a local rock band and a pianist at an fancy cocktail lounge, but very few people know he does both 🤭
Defo need to c0mm some art for this soon... 🤔
#ElionDeRiva #AU
I still don't have a canon Warden 😅 but I can answer this for some of the others!
I can't imagine anyone voicing Elion (my Rook) but the incredible Jeff Berg himself. In-game, he uses the lower pitched option.
His singing voice claim is Chris Daughtry 🎵

For Elion it's the little gestures and affirmations that show him he is enoughㅡthat he doesn't have to act or be a certain way to be worthy of love. Rhys's endless patience and understanding mean more to Elion than anything in the world 💜
#ElionDeRiva

If I'd known Elion would look this good in Felix's modded armour, I'd have put it on him AGES AGO 👀🫠😈
(mod linked below - I'm using the rogue variant of course!)
#DragonAge #ElionDeRiva #VP
Rhys, hands down. Elion shouldn't be allowed in the kitchen unless he's pouring wine, mixing cocktails or being eye-candy. For someone so skilled with complex formulas, he's incredibly bad at making food that WON'T kill someone.
(Rhys belongs to @dalishbandit.bsky.social💜)
#ElionDeRiva #RhysDeRiva
Elion does enjoy some alone-time when he's in a good mood and getting on with his alchemy work, but if he's feeling lonely or in a bad MH place he does not cope well at all on his own. Thankfully, he has a very attentive partner who is an expert at coaxing him out of those moods 🥹💜
#ElionDeRiva
👇
As long as it's Rhys doing the touching, Elion doesn't mind where 😏 but he is especially fond of kisses on his neck, having his wrists held and—of course—he has very sensitive ears.
He'll hug his friends but prefers not to be touched by anyone else without good reason.
#nsfw ish?
#ElionDeRiva
👇
Elion is terrified of them. He can cope with dead ones if he absolutely has to, but he'd much rather not. If there's a live one in his presence, he's getting as far away from it as he can and probably won't be able to relax for a while afterward 😨

#DragonAge #ElionDeRiva #VP
Elion knows he's pretty (he's used it to his advantage plenty of times), but what makes the most impact is compliments from his partner, and those little adoring looks and touches that make him feel like he truly matters. He never expected anyone to care for him like Rhys does 💜
#ElionDeRiva
👇
Elion: very but ONLY by his partner🥰
Santiago: needs to be contained, honestly😈
Meraad: very affectionate bean😘
Mahanon: unless you're Dorian Pavus, stay away😤
Felix: cautious at first, freely affectionate with time🤭
#ElionDeRiva #SantiagoCantori #MeraadLaidir #MahanonLavellan #FelixMercar
Elion would be a white Tonkinese (Siamese/Burmese hybrid).
Santiago would be an Abbysinian.
#ElionDeRiva #SantiagoCantori
👇
Elion deals with it himself for as long as he can, not wanting to be a burden to anyone, until his partner sees right through it and forces him to rest.
Santiago is similar, though he's willing to see a healer if it's serious—prior experience has taught him a lot.

Just finished a fun comm tonight! 🥰
Thanks Moni for letting me play with the beans again🥹♥️🙏

Thank you so much, Fox! They're perfect, I'm so happy aaaa 😭🥰
If you haven't already, this is your sign to comm Fox! She's amazing! 😤

#ElionDeRiva #RhysDeRiva #VampAU
Elion has not, and would likely be too self-conscious to play unless his partner or close friends were present for support (/as bad influences). He'd probably have to be drunk, too 🙈
Santiago has, and mostly did quite well. He didn't mind losing, though 😏

Elion would be a wood-elf bard from the College of Whispers.
Santiago would be a tabaxi (striped-fur variant) Bladesinger wizard.
Meraad would be a half-orc Oath of Glory paladin.

Elion and Santiago are both fluent in Elvhen, Trade and Antivan.
Meraad speaks Trade and Rivaini, plus a smattering of phrases in several other languages. Contrary to her appearance, she doesn't speak a word of Qunlat.
