He's a young tiger in his thirties, unnecessarily tall, confident, and attractive. His main job (and the one for which he's best known) is as an escort (more like a taikomochi) and night companion. The nickname "Svara" refers to the golden makeup stains he usually leaves on the sheets when he leaves.

He's actually quite intelligent and well-educated, and beyond his night job, he also has other skills such as carpentry, music, poetry, and sewing. He likes to dress elegantly, especially in dark clothes.

The old hairstyle was a placeholder I grew attached to, but I finally decided to change it to something I liked a lot more and that better suited Avana's character. It's loosely inspired by Fei Fei and my own hair!! (it's a mess)

The lamb's old fuchsia cape remains as an early design before being replaced by the current ruana. It goes like this: Original cape (given by Narinder) > Early design cape (made with scraps from the previous one and adding A's design to the edges) > Ruana (retaining A's design, hinting at the future three-eye design)

I added a slight variation in the skin tones, just to make it easier to distinguish the angle of the head when coloring. I also decided to add a little color to the fingers to match the hooves… I'm hesitant to put hooves on the hands yet.

The faux wool covering under the vest now has a slightly different hue for easier identification.

The burn mark on her thigh is now more visible. I'm too lazy to maintain an elaborate tattoo design, so for now, the most important thing will be to preserve the main shapes.

I also changed the wool distribution on the body, I think it looks much better now and even looks more like Avana's alternate faun design.

The lamb thought the god of death would keep her by his side after killing all the bishops and freeing him, but when he demanded her sacrifice, the fantasy she had in her mind shattered. She defeats Narinder by piercing his heart and decides to keep the crown until "he comes to his senses".

The tumult of emotions within her leads her to make impulsive decisions, such as breaking the bishops' crowns and forging them into a crown of thorns worthy of Narinder. She also forbids missionary journeys and prevents more people from joining the cult.

She begins to accelerate her ascension to godhood, but her body cannot keep up, and she ends up constantly injuring herself. The red crown, noticing that a perfect vessel has now become a wreck of emotions, decides to end her life.

Additional Notes:

Even before freeing Narinder, Avana unconsciously begins to mimic Suemy's image, hoping to please him.

The crown causes Avana's growth to stretch her body and eventually tear her skin in several places.

The followers are aware of the lamb's suffering but are unable to intervene.

However, they believe her suffering is caused directly by Narinder (as if he were punishing her, even though it's actually due to her lack of control and thirst for power).

Narinder is conscious despite the crown embedded in his head. He wanders around the cult without speaking and lacks the strength for any of the tasks. The lamb keeps him like a pet.

The crown noticed how Avana's heart changed after killing Narinder, and as a preventative measure in case of emergencies, it shaped the growth of her horns to point towards her spine (behind her neck).

By banning new members from the cult, the crown begins to lose power, and once the lamb dies, the crown permanently closes its eye. Grieving for Avana's loss, the cult decides to kill Narinder, blaming him for her death.
