There were more characters I wanted to draw but I ran out of time unfortunately 🙏💦 Maybe next year!

This act was brought to you from Southampton, England!

Charismatic, talented, and determined, the lovely Tylene Charant commands the stage of the Wayfare Penny Carnival with an unmatched passion. She announces the shows and runs the schedules, and it's up to her to make the circus profitable, but she can't exactly make miracles -- they're barely staying afloat. Tylene has a vision, and she just knows that one day they could all be playing Vegas, far out of the reach of their troubles!

Just one thing, though. Traveling circuses are supposed to, you know, travel. After all, how will they get to the big leagues if they’re stuck in the middle of nowhere? And why does she sometimes feel like she's one step behind everyone else?

fun fact: the reason she was sent to help heal in the Royal Knights Exam was because she was one of the on scene doctors to help Fuegoleon when he went into his coma!

so she literally still sees this man as one of her patients even after he is discharged so they get along well

Mereoleona used to scare her a bit but once she was established as a family member (and especially when she got pregnant) Lily was really adopted into the group of strong women in their extended family

Leopold hangs around her at her work in most of my aus, just because i think if he learned some healing magic to add to his dynamic

very mentor mentee relationship with them

Mimosa is someone she respects and can see herself with a bit of the struggle to prove yourself

Kirsch is hilarious to watch fumble around but since she’s friends with Calla (@funky-sea-cryptid oc) she likes the guy even if she can get annoyed when she has to patch him up

Damnatio gets basically none of her respect because she disagrees with all of his judgments and decisions

she also doesn’t agree with a good amount of how Clover operates on a whole but she’s more likely to snap at him once she hears about the trial he held with two teenagers and a child

finessa would be checked in periodically by her once she knows about her illness, happily stopping by to help

The Earth Moves

The Earth was alive before all of the elements. It was ever changing and ever constant.

The four spirits were older than humanity, a surge of power in life itself.

The Golem was one of them. A creature of rock and soil that moves as one with the ground. While the other spirits took more humanoid shapes, Golem preferred his natural form.

Why have limbs when you have no need to hold something?

Why yearn for touch if you’re part of everything?

“ Between trying to keep her jesters from murdering each other and getting her show on the road, Tylene Charant’s tenure as Ringmaster of the decaying and destitute Wayfare Penny Carnival has never been dull. ​​However, her routine goes completely off the rails when a prospective visit from The Company collides with the discovery of a lost child on circus grounds - a child that some members of the Troupe seem completely uninterested in trying to return to his parents.

Adriel P. Atwood Rivera was an astonishingly promising young author. Now, he works the sideshow tent as a ventriloquist with his best-selling trilogy unfinished. Adriel knows the secret that some in the Troupe are keeping from the rest, and doesn’t mind putting Tylene on the right track to discover it — even if doing so might put him in danger for the rest of eternity. After all, it’s difficult to frighten a man who has already lost everything. ”
