Just look and judge silently, okay?

I've got stuff to slowly put on here over time and even pulled out some of my drawings back from high school. Some of it is actually kinda cool, while some of the earlier stuff is... *shudders*. Those can probably stay unseen forever lol.

What I used to do was make a manual sketch, take a picture and then make digital art out of it. Moving forward, the stuff I post from this point will likely be purely drawn on my phone. Yeah... a big, innaccurate fingertip on a small screen (because what are styluses lol and also big phones dont fit in my pocket *shakes fist at growing phone sizes*).

A poor summary of each of the characters:

Aspen - A sheltered, aspiring scholar adopted and raised by the headmaster of the Academy (the leading magical institution of Sancterra). Awakens his inner demon side as part of the story.

Mahogany - A socially awkward resident cleric and witch from the country. Struggles against the hallow - a divine, depression-like disease that possesses people and turns the land into a resonating, crystalline horrorscape. Inspired by and inspiration for my GW2 character.

Evangeline - A animated being created by her deranged father to replace his lost daughter. Behaves completely normally, however, and is ironically a necromancer herself.

Brief description of the major cities:

Mollitus - Typical "diverse" central hub and walled metropolis. Think Imperial city from Tamriel.

Vox - Half hidden amongst within the surrounding forest and commonly features mystical and physics-defying architecture.

Naürth - A largely non-descript city built inside the mountains themselves.

Rhendo - A massive tree and multi-tiered city that towers over Vox. Though a normal-looking tree at first (apart from size obviously), it turns into a lightshow at night.

Pavyratus - A ghost town by the time of the story, sheltered inside a massive cave and wharf. More of a mass of floating boats, platforms and bridges than a city.

The classifications used to stricter, but as time progressed they've more or less become umbrella terms to refer to prominent/disguishing features of the world's inhabitants:

Humans - Rather stock standard human race. Most numerous and therefore influential among the races.

Velkin - Related to animals (and or relatives) of the furred kind. An expressive race; Sancterrean velkin take pride in the arts.

Écaillith - Relating to reptilians or those with scales. In Sancterra, they ironically live a hermitic life in the cold north to honour their supposed prestige as vestigial dragons.

Sylphids - Relating to the feathered. Sancterrean sylphids in particular are tech savvy and will somehow find ways to have things that are better (and cooler) than yours.

Minitia - Related to the vertically challenged. Sancterrean minitia are known for their unpredictable energy that belie their true nature (as demons :O).

Every time I see this, I’m reminded of my teacher being disappointed in how I decided to have my clock painted black like everyone else. Like why not red or some other striking colour?
