VERY AGGRESSIVELY PREPARING TO DRAW A THOUSAND ARTS WITH ADAR-JOSEPH MAUL TO 24

"I won't hurt you" said the liar

For me, his death was not cynical. I didn’t see a single sign that the creators of the series treated him cynically or wanted to kill him just to shock the audience. This was in the cards from the very beginning. Even with how expected such an ending was for Adar, it is a very, very bitter storyline. As Poppy said – some things simply cannot be dealt with; they are above and stronger than us. This ending is brutal, but it is much more realistic precisely because in epic fantasy, we expect the hero to win, and that’s okay. In this regard, Adar is much closer to the brutality found in non-epic works. It’s terrible, unfair, nightmarish, but life is an unfair and cruel thing. That’s how I see it.

Honestly, I haven't seen such a terrible story as Adar's in a long time. Not in the sense that it is poorly written, but in the sense that his storyline and his entire life are absolutely hopeless. His life was spent in suffering alongside Morgoth and Sauron; he witnessed how they killed and tormented his children, he was tortured too. For a brief moment, they freed themselves from Sauron's power, and Adar did everything to ensure that Uruks did not fall under his control again. He was ready to turn them against him, to feel their distance and their waning love for him, he was prepared for them to kill him, just so they wouldn’t become slaves again.

He dies right after realizing that the ring could heal him, after a new path opened up for him in alliance with Galadriel. Sauron looks at him and Adar understands that Sauron has won, and that everything that came before was in vain.

This is an absolute, total nightmare and shattering of all hopes.

thank you!!! I hope the new season will bring more inspiration for arts with sauron and adar, can't wait for it

Fireborn

My fire boy, dancing far, far away from his golden cage.

Hi! I saw your art of Tar-Baphon (what? He's cute? Haha what a charming twist) and Arazni and damn I'm curious what's going on in your campaign. Can you please tell me about it?

ура, можно писать на русском кхм

Привет) На арте вместе с Аразни не Тар-Бафон, а Сокорро, который тоже был успешно яссифицирован нашим дорогим ГМом на радость всем участвующим. Тар-Бафон вот тут: https://www.tumblr.com/papugaka/767047553458044928/bbeg-of-our-current-campaign-lich-tar-baphon-my?source=share

На арте момент из нашего кампейна: РС на данный момент находятся на крепостной стене Ардиса, который осаждает армия ТБ и Сокорро. ТБ, правда, не особо участвовал, он пришел посмотреть, как выеб... сработает Сокорро. К несчастью для гордости Сокорро, в Ардисе на тот момент была и андеднутая Аразни, которой было _очень_ надо чтобы ТБ рванул осколок так же, как он взорвал Дозор и остальные города. Она вызвала его на бой и в ходе месива продырявила Сокорро со спины и вообще сделала все, чтобы ТБ выбесить. Но тогда не вышло)

Я видел у вас на странице, что вы тоже ГМ, но я не очень знаю, где проходит граница между переработками нашего ГМа и канонным приключением, поэтому если что-то странно звучит, готов пояснить)

don't deny it

I have little work to do, so I’ve been staring at this gif for, like, half an hour, and guess what?

You can see exactly the moment where his fear and disbelief, coming from some familiarity of the pose/position/Halbrand’s face, that this is Sauron turns into “no, I’m putting too much into it, shouldn’t be doing that, Sauron is dead and I saw him die“.

His “No” then is punctuating that.

Joseph Mawle is a king of micro-expressions, honestly.

Then @papugaka​ said Adar’s gaze is moving slightly to Sauron’s spear and back to Sauron, and it seems true.

Knowing Sauron had a spear, just how many times exactly did Sauron take that dominating stance over Adar in the past that it takes Adar one second to recognize it in a low man?
