AL-AN doodle

I bet it felt really nice to stretch after not having a body for 1000 years

An unused aside dialogue between AL-AN and Robin. A conversation about gems and names.

Transcript below the cut

Robin: “Looks like this was an Alterra mining site. Gemstones everywhere.”

AL-AN: “Why do humans designate only some minerals as gems?”

R: “Because they're not just functional, we also find them beautiful—decorative.”

A: “Is that why Ruby is a human name according to the database in your PDA?”

R: “I think so.”

A: “Astatine is technically the rarest known element. Do humans name their children Astatine? I did not see it listed.”

R: “…No, I’ve never met a human named Astatine.”

The swirly pattern on the back of AL-AN’s horns is under appreciated

Unused aside dialogue between AL-AN and Robin about quartz.

Transcript under the cut

AL-AN: Once in my travels I came across a planet that had trees with leaves of quartz.

Robin: Sounds beautiful!

A: It was refractive.

R: You have the soul of a poet.

AL-AN stretch

So glowy…

All your photo dumps and gifs of AL-AN has helped me so much gathering references to draw a character inspired by him, thank you for your service 🙏

I love to post AL-AN’s animations and such so I’m glad it’s appreciated. I started my blog because I got frustrated of AL-AN clips either being in low quality or having the HUD on, so I went in game and recorded a bunch myself!

References you say…

If you have anything specific things about AL-AN such as animations, lore, databank entires, or voice lines you want me to post, just ask. I’m pretty much always willing to do requests. As long as they pertain to AL-AN or Architects.
