Deyaenus hates the Void Elves. They are betrayers in his eyes, as they should have remained loyal to Quel’thalas (keep in mind Deyaenus does not know eeeevery single lore detail that happens in game, as I’m sure there’s a lot of rumor and misinformation as well, and just things common folk are not privy to) Plus, nothing is greater or more powerful than the Light, in his eyes.
He is able to use his Shadow powers to counter Void attacks, but absorbing Void energies is changing the physical confirmation of his gnarled Old God manifestation as well. For now he is ignoring these changes as he can still somewhat retain control (whatever semblance of control he had to begin with) over the manifestations. We’ll see what the future holds!
hello I am Isei and sometimes I try my hand at comics
here’s a bit of a snippet that I had with a discord friend talking OOC about our characters that turned into a bit of an RP scene of how would Deyaenus explain his Old God manifestations and how in the heck does he manage to keep what would be a chaotic, destructive entity …well, not?
I also feel this is not something common with Shadow/Void magics and that every shadow priest, or void elf, or Old God worshiper may have different experiences and expertise in handling these destructive magics. It is after all an all consuming force that barely can cling to reality, so to each their own in a way that just works. Dey’s just happened to have been feeding on sad, depressive thoughts throughout YEARS in small amounts and used these also as ‘anchors’ to pull itself into a physical form using Dey as a sort of symbiotic vessel. When Dey’s Light cycle was fading it allowed these gnarled manifestations to grow stronger, but still depend on the priest’s delicious, depressive thoughts to ‘feed’ on and as its physical anchor. So, I guess it’s less symbiotic and more parasitic, but in a good way not really?
of course Deyaenus hears its terrible whispers, somber and pessimistic, but he confuses them as his OWN and by now he’s been living with depressive thoughts for so long he is just… good at ignoring them.

much thanks to @dorksworn for letting me play around with some practice in – gasp! – lineless art! admittedly I took way longer than I usally would on a sketch, but I was going a little slower and learning along the way.
