realistically harrow should have this haircut (miss u kaarija)

(from tumblr) the vibe i strive for with elidiharrow

i feel my heart gravitating towards a certain name, one that came up very early in my search in fact, for my notishgard. i've also had other worldbuilding thoughts. but i can't begin to think how i'd like to lay them out! do i just start with some bullet points??

several times in raid i got the hysteria debuff and because we're still learning the teleporter placement, i end up running up to someone and oneshotting them. terrifying image of harrow consumed by madness turning on his friends with killing intent.

harrow to all the scions

sorry to halone but i don't vibe with your favoured weapon 😿 which is a shame bc the imagery of being impaled on her spears is still peak to me

i think spears are honestly kinda lame. lances are cool with the mount's momentum, but for actual melee combat i think haro should have a halberd. i never looked much into them until now but they're really sick

decidedly not a fan of AM but i heard this song at a restaurant recently and it sounded nice and these lyrics specifically are harrowcore.

me looking at words in irish and stumbling upon "tairngire" with an alternate spelling "targaire", meaning prophet or promise, esp as in promised land. ok sounds awesome. if that were the name of the country, what would the people be called... ah, it just sounds like targaryen.

killing machine and loves his job yes yes

art of dragoon harrow proudly holding his lance but the lance is a hockey stick and the armour is habs jersey.

000

love the words goth and gothic but hate that they were long used as pejorative terms :(

000

my point is that rivers and valleys seem to be prominently featured in toponymy (looking specifically at germanic) and not so much mountains, probably because people don't live ON the mountains. which makes it quite hard to create a suitable name. and i don't like -berg that much

000

i had put my quest for a name on hold for a while but now it's back in full swing. the torture never ends

100

anyway i like alpine inspiration for the surroundings of my notishgard, but the city itself must remain carved into a mountain. which seems an unusual choice for a human* settlement but isn't it just the sickest aesthetic

200

i don't know how i got in my head the phrase "coerthas plains" when the first sentence on the wiki mentions it is a mountainous region and also i could've just you know, looked at pictures. maybe the word that escaped me was valley lol

100

the protag is a monster hunter and his sidekick is a monk. i skimmed the first few pages of the webcomic and it was that usual edgy "tough guy skeptical of the church being like look what they're hiding from you, what they don't want you to see, oooooo" stuff that is super meh to me now 🤷

000

looked for knight related books at the library yesterday, and couldn't locate this one comic that i saw on the catalogue, but nevertheless enjoyed finding a new harrow in the wild

harrow @harrow.ne0dym.com · 20/05/2026

reading wikipedia and imagining early era harrow as a swiss mercenary. even though i dislike referring to him as a mercenary in any capacity hehe. my grandfather was from the swiss alps so i feel compelled to take inspiration from that region...

100

ancient mesopotamian goddess inanna/ishtar. goddess of war, love and sex, enforcer of divine justice, always conquering and seeking more power, most famous myth being a descent into the underworld (perhaps a Harrowing of Hell?). interesting...

000

the whole voidsent avatar pact thing turned me off, i think it's sick but i just couldn't think of a way to make it work, and also i had already made up a whole reason why he wouldn't do melee dps anymore so i didn't feel like turning back lol.

000

remembering when reaper was announced and when it was freshly released i was soooo hyped for it i really wanted to make it canon for harrow

100

i see the armour of henry viii. i wonder should harrow be fatter

harrow @harrow.ne0dym.com · 18/05/2026

same**. shame is what making a typo and not catching it until hours later brings me

000

a hawo head i drew some time ago and another hawo i drew last night, i legit just be drawing the shame shit over and over

when i would play soccer in school i always liked being goalkeeper and whenever i watched pro soccer i always liked the goalies more, so i'd like to say harrow should be a goalie in hockey, but they don't seem to use their swords (sticks) that much which is boring

000

unfortunately reading victorian erotica of dubious morality thanks to tumblr

000

maistre/mestre, typically used not for nobles but for learned men. i liked the bit where he said "the nobility, being uneducated fighting machines, based their conceptions as to a man's worth upon his physical prowess and upon his superiority in warlike pursuits." (but we're not following that)

000

it's very late so i sleep, but i feel a little more fond of chevalier as a word now, etymology isn't destiny etc

100

there's also a chapter on escuier, which evolved from noble who isn't yet a chevalier bc he is too young (14-18) -> noble who isn't yet a chevalier bc he is too poor -> noble who is below a chevalier in rank.

100

the author disputes the notion that (early) chivalry had a religious character, which is sad to me specifically, but also points out the savage brutality of those warriors, which is exciting.

100

by itself* as it had a pejorative connotation. it was typically paired with an adjective in direct address, such as franc, nobile or bon ch. with no pejorative connotation.

100

the chapter on chevalier was enlightening, but left me a little disappointed somehow. it mentions the shift in meaning of chevalier/chivalry from decked out member of the warrior class -> a noble of any rank -> a noble of lower rank than count/baron/etc. and that it was rarely used in direct address

100

ok this part is actually really good to know, and it mentions 14th century which is close to my target period. so messire could be seen as a "milord" of sorts while monseigneur is a more formal "my lord" address, which is what i was intuiting already

100

i heard the full version in english will be in their upcoming album but i'm begging them to release the full song in serbian. it's amazing. this is gåte's ulveham 2.0 for me, idc if it does poorly, they already won in my heart. i will now torture these lyrics until they fit harrow somehow
