#SvanLore
Svan will have 2 children, and while he'll be really emotional about both, his first will definitely have a huge impact. He'll worry about protecting someone so small and precious, be in awe that's his lil baby and he's now a father (he'll cry), and be the biggest teddy bear to his kids
#SvanLore
Svan can make some good cookies because he learned from his adoptive mom, but that's about it lol. He never really picked up on the other things she baked.
He also learned how to cook from her, and that he's better at and enjoys more since it's not as precise as baking
#SvanLore
Yes! A lot of blues, greens, browns, and off-white. Very calm and nature inspired color palette ^^
#SvanLore
Svan could fall asleep on the ground and has many times in his life, but nowadays he prefers a soft bed.. specifically one that has Ash in it
#SvanLore #SvanNSFW
VERY. Svan wasn't always that way, but Ash definitely unleashed another side of him lol so he likes to show him just how much he's enjoying it. Lots of growling and moaning involved, and even if he tries to muffle it he's still fairly loud
#SvanLore
He's pretty neat with his belongings/home. He likes knowing where everything is & that everything has its place. If he's exhausted from the day he might leave his clothes & things around but they get taken care of quickly once he resets lol
He likes to keep everything neat for Ash too
#SvanLore
Svan is a *very* fast eater and it pisses Ash right off LOL
He tries to slow down and be mindful of it but it's a hard habit to break
#SvanLore
If Svan ended up there alone, he's trying to leave lol. He's calling Ash to pick him up. He's not really one for all of that unless he attending with people he knows.
If he is there with someone, he's just sticking by them the whole time while still looking to get away from the crowd
#SvanLore
Svan doesn't swear often in normal conversations. He mostly does it when he's frustrated/angry/upset.. or during certain times with Ash. That's when he happily swears the most 👀
#SvanLore
Svan smells very woody, but also warm and a bit sweet/ambery. Exact scents would be bergamot, fir balsam, juniper, vanilla bean, tonka, white moss, and patchouli
#SvanLore #YatoH #RohanS #FelyxS
Svan and Yato: I hope you're okay
Rohan: Stop falling down the stairs
Felyx: How'd the ground taste
#SvanLore #SvanNSFW
Being called 'good boy' is one of Svan's *favorite* things but he's too shy to admit it outright. He'll just ask Ash to say it again and pounds him harder every time Ash does.
It absolutely makes him melt and he'll do anything Ash says if he calls him that.
#SvanLore
Probably not plain, but Svan will put something on it and eat it. He doesn't want to waste food and overall it still tastes pretty good to him.
So yes, Svan absolutely eats butt
#SvanLore
Svan has a sister who's 5 years older. They had a close relationship growing up since she helped their mother raise him, but then they didn't see each other for almost 20 years. He thought she had stayed back in the Skatay Range, but they crossed paths again when Svan was around 30
#SvanLore
Wholesome: some can find it weird how long Svan will just.. stare at Ash lol he just likes to look at his wife and gets lost in thought
Not wholesome: how cold and unaffected Svan was during and after tearing apart Garleans. The Scions seeing him like that definitely made them uneasy.
#SvanLore
Svan's name doesn't really mean anything, I just took the name Sven and changed a letter lol (though I did find svan means swan in Swedish, I think).
The surname de'Silvae means "of the forest", and his original surname ex'Nivis means "out from the snow"
#SvanLore
While he has told Ash because he just can't keep anything from him, no one else knows Svan and G'raha had some feelings for each other during ShB. He didn't mention it back then for fear of making the group dynamic awkward and there's no use in talking about it now since both had moved on
#SvanLore
how stubborn he is, and he knows it. Everything he does is so tied to his own beliefs/overall goals, and trying to change his mind about it is no simple task. He knows it makes him frustrating to be around sometimes, but he also sees it as not faltering on what is so important to him
#SvanLore
Svan's Chocobo is named Fidus! He's had him for about 18 years now, and got him as a gift from his adoptive parents after he started getting jobs around the Black Shroud. Every job he took up, Fidus would be there with him. And now after many years apart, Svan has his birdy back!
#SvanLore #Svavorn
I actually literally just designed him today after I've been thinking about it for a while lol
I wanted to keep some important features of Svan, like the eyes and overall face shape, and so Emet-Selch is pained every time he sees Svan. He's so conflicted any time he looks at him.
#SvanLore
At first glance, probably not. Svan just looks like a big teddy bear, but considering he is the WoL and has a fairly high kill count.. he's someone that people shouldn't try to push over the edge. And people have definitely tested him because of his appearance lol
#SvanLore
Svan almost *always* has to be touching Ash in some way lol holding his hand, hand on his waist, arm around his shoulders, a hand on his leg if they're sitting next to each other.. he really needs to feel that closeness with him
Svan will also give very nice hugs to those he knows well!
#SvanLore
Ash, of course!
His adoptive parents for taking him and being so patient and gentle with him
Estinien and G'raha for being such good friends to him and helping him through so much
And just the Scions in general for always being there and saving his life when he thought his time had come
#SvanLore
No, he doesn't. Getting really attached to someone when he was younger only lead him to grief. Later when he let his guard down again and got attached to Ash when they were young, he had to be without him for 17 years. So Svan mostly kept people an arm's length away (continued in reply)
#SvanLore
He wants to be known as someone who is kind, dependable, caring, and hard working.. but also as someone you shouldn't fuck around with lol
#SvanLore
(lil time skip) Svan has two kids!
He's close with both of them, they're absolutely his whole world. Elja is the oldest son and while very much like Svan is more attached to Ash lol. Their youngest son, Virens, is more attached to Svan though. Always has to be swaddled against his chest
#SvanLore
(in my lore) Viera are super uncommon to see in most places, so a very tall guy with long rabbit ears definitely sticks out lol. His face tattoo and hair color would also give him away.
Without even seeing him a crowd, his laugh would be a giveaway to those who know him well.
#SvanLore #SvanNSFW
When he's at home, absolutely. Svan most of the time is walking around in just lounge pants or his underwear. He prefers to sleep in just underwear or completely nude, depending on the night, and he'll stay like that for a bit after waking up.. and Ash doesn't complain, so 👀
