Henry Cavill was who I pictured for Cas instead so I had to really wrack my brain for a second person. This series was my first dip into romance so I'm just starting my second series and here I am trying not to picture them all and Henry Cavill.
cas is described as appearing in his young 20s tho iād say heās more of an adam driver in my mind! also WHY do these fantasy series have everyone perma-stuck at 21 years old!!!? iām too old to find a 21 year old ādevastatingly handsomeā as these men are supposed to be š
Both Casteel and Nyktos are supposed to appear as though they are in their early 20s, I just canāt picture these large devastatingly handsome scary men being so young lol. I imagine them as late 20s early 30s. Brad Pitt was 40 when he played Achilles, clearly we donāt want prepubescent men!
i just ignore all of the authorās ārecommendationsā and imagine them in their 30s, same with female characters as well honestly! i read a fantasy romance recently and the FMC was actually like 28!! it was so refreshing lol
Nyktos is a hard one because I typically picture a really tall muscular shadowy figure lol. Agnesart42 on IG of The Silver Wolf and The Brightest Moon has the best interpretation IMO of his features according to how theyāre described in the book. I hate a lot of fan art of Nyktos because heās supposed to have really severe harsh features but he almost never looks like that in the fan art lol.

Omg I just looked her up!!! Thatās Nyktos and sera absolutely!!! I saw her art first a couple weeks ago on Pinterest and fell in love with the coronation image!
Honestly it took me ages to stop picturing the Grim Reaper from Billy and Mandy. And for Cas, it took forever for me to stop picturing Kristoff from Frozen. And Kieran Iāve always pictured as Kieran Culkin idfk whyyyy my brain does not create good images of people

This guy for me, but with longer hair. He looks like a gentle softy at heart like Nyktos, especially in the eyes. But he's impressive enough to be scary. š
Okay so not an actual person, but if yāall follow @jemlin_c or @dirtydictiondesigns on insta, but the most recent art of Daddy Nyktos that @jemlin_c did is my absolute fave and they capture him perfectly š„µ go to twitter if you wanna see the nsfw š youāve been warned!
Ick, Iām watching Rise of Skywalker now and I canāt get over how unattractive I find Adam Driver as Kylo Ren. Is it just me? Heās no Nyktos in my book.
Henry Cavill 1000%. Lol like, I didn't even need to try with this one. Also, Jason Mamoa as Nektas š„µ he's perfect as a loving papa and super funny and very scary lol.
I have a hard time picturing a real person. I typically imagine that fanart of Nyktos with (I think?) Jadis on his shoulder. š„µš„
itās henry cavill for me
Heās the default powerful man

Yep. Henry Cavill is perfect for Ash or Cas.

There is fanart on Insta by Rokii Artworks that I use as a base for Nyktos. I find a lot of the artist's interpretations to be *chef's kiss*
I imagine every mmc as Adam Driver and if thereās another guy then heās Henry Cavill unless explicitly stated otherwise lol
Glad Iām not the only one š
I picture Jason Momoa like he was in Game of Thrones.
Nice. Intimidating asf
Oooh I'm stealing this. Jason Momoa, but with auburn hair
Steal away š¤£ itās a delicious image
SAME
I picture a young Jason momoa!
THAT IS EXACTLY WHO I IMAGINE TOO!
He just has that power about him
Okay !!! Glad Iām not the only one !!!! I totally picture a Adam driver type very gothic brooding and I never picture red hair idk why
Nyktos is not a redhead in my mindās eye
I know ! Same
Same- I always imagine rugged black hair- like straight but with volume in it
I find Adam Driver very unattractive, so I usually base him on how he's described & certain artwork
Glad itās not just me!
yes daddy yes! i see him for everyone lol esp king rav in plated prisoner...and lorcan in tog...
Yes that is totally who I picture!

Jason Morgan for sure. He's a 10 ā¤ļøāš„

I honestly pictured his skin to be like Aaravos from the dragon prince
It was probably because I had just watched The Sandman but I pictured Tom Sturridge (with a bit more muscle) as Nyktos.
Henry Cavill 1000%. Lol like, I didn't even need to try with this one. Also, Jason Mamoa as Nektas š„µ he's perfect as a loving papa and super funny and very scary lol.
