ARTFIGHT 2026: WEEK ONE — Character credits under cut

I'm so proud of how these all came out>:D Come fight me (link) there, I'm still going strong💪

✹Watchful hunter, Savage beast✹ – When donning the Crest of the Beast, Hornet's needle splits in two and fuses to her arms to form massive, slashing claws.

Inspired by my battle with Gurr the Outcast! I feel like the Gurr boss battle is so underrated. Perhaps not for the combat itself but for the concept. For once, Hornet does not find herself the masterful hunter. Instead she's surprised at herself for noticing far too late that she was being stalked and lured for who knows how long and for who knows how far, even. The trophies in Gurr's room suggest he isn't afraid of leaving Farfields.

✹Sea Smoke✹ — The ocean breathes. —

“ Every morning, when I wake, I’m not greeted by the safety of the morning light or the warmth and gentle fragrance of my sun city. Instead, I face an endless, all consuming fog and choke on the obtrusive scent of foreign docks beneath my hooves. As if I've been reduced to a child, I cower in the mist and race down the lanes as I did in those creaking corridors of my old home with a lantern – trusty companion, my pocket sun – slung forward like a guide or perhaps an offering to the dark. Despite how alien this place feels to me, I still hold onto hope that one day the sight of the sea will bring me some familiarity. Unlike Paramoor, though, the ocean here is dark and if the certainty of a bottom exists, I cannot find it. I cannot find anything. Only my lone reflection in the water. …Once, however, I thought I saw eyes other than my own beneath the waves. I do not know if I preferred them belonging to a figment of my imagination – an indication of my fraying mind – or a body. And if it belonged to a body, I do not know whether to prefer it belonging to a live one or one long passed. “

Uh some examples here

Blackwater Biota: Liar's Sea Lantern (part 2 <-here)

"Sea Lanterns are mid-sized to large creatures that participate in aggressive night-time feeding at the surface before returning to the depths during the day. Their translucent body and bioluminescent innards act as a lure for prey and they won't hesitate to snatch sailors that lean too far over the rails, trying to get a better look at the lights.
