it's been really fun & also really validating for me personally to figure out how to incorporate disability into Neroe's story & thinking up pinup poses he can do with the cane. you can still be sexy even while disabled, and it's important to me to show that through my work!
gnb: he uses the same mammet as with mch to reload the cartridges, and also a lot of aether focus to give him the strength to swing his gunblade. he had to do a lot of training to increase his upper body strength, and reworked all of his skills to account for the cane
mch: he worked with Stephanivien to create a small mammet that reloads his gun for him! it's a little clockwork guy with flittery wings, programmed with a set of actions that trigger using voice commands. It's very beautiful, ofc, as Neroe used his goldsmithing in combination
sch: he relies on Selene a great deal, and he's worked out a way while in Sharlayan to cast his spells vocally rather than using writing in the book and somatic gestures. he also uses smaller books to make them less unwieldy
he made himself a tail cap out of gold and glass and gems for the end, and his cane is made of oak with wrought resin and ruby in the handle
on the warrior of light side, he can no longer play some classes due to needing the cane, so he has to make a lot of adjustments
Neroe got caught under a collapse and lost a large amount off the end of his tail, as well as having lots of damage to his hip and leg - he now walks with a cane, due to chronic pain and loss of balance from his tail damage!

meet Neroe's new battle assistant - Anima! ofc he doesn't need her as a scholar, but she likes to hang out anyway :3
she's light-fingered and deft with bullets for mch and gnb, and her spirit and magick help boost Neroe's more movement-heavy attacks~
i know it's very late but PLEASE PERCEIVE HIM THIS IS THE BEST THING I'VE EVER DONE
(also ngl, i might never take off these cutout falconer pants cos HOLY FUCKING SHIT???)
also tested out a new hair for Neroe, intended to be what it's like when he lets it down! i kinda highkey love it, omg
