they say the only difference between medicine and poison is the dosage, and i think that’s my thesis statement re: aggressive restoration. a living organism is constantly striving to retain balance, and if that balance is overly compromised, then it will die.
like take blood pressure, for example.
if your blood pressure is low, you might be prescribed medication to raise it. in the field in the elder scrolls, you might use a restoration spell to restore it. but if it’s restored too much, then, well…
take a few medical liberties with the speed of the increase and you’ll have a massive fatal stroke on your hands. in fact, high blood pressure is the primary cause of hemmorhagic strokes, which are fatal if the bleeding doesn’t stop.
Some old Morrowind character design stuff I was doing before my hands started acting up and nuked my ability to do nice line art. I might redo these (but just headshots) now that I have a more clear picture of these characters in my head since I don’t vibe with all the choices I made in these anymore. Not my best art but there’s enough ok stuff in these to warrant posting I think.
do you think when vivec floats in the air he sometimes spins around for fun? do you think he likes to give out orders while spinning? do you think he ever spins to annoy his guards?
he spins really really fast to make his guards dizzy then he sneaks out of the palace while they’re recovering so he doesn’t have to have an entourage. he also does a bunch of sick back flips and somersaults. also he pretends to “swim” through the air to confuse people
i missed the middle question. he’ll spin slowly while talking to somebody and insist they face him the entire time so you get people walking in circles around him while he’s philosophizing at them
