LA CREATURA

A fanart of Nari from Tales of Arcadia :)

This is what I'd imagine a sort of magic hierarchy would've been like, created in central europe amd spread around the whole world during colonial times, i'd say magical creatures went into hiding around the same time as not to be used as instruments of violence basically

I'm also changing the dynamics between the Camelot characters & what the fantasy-political climate of the time was like

So for anyone willing to decipher my fugly ass hand writing, here are my surface level notes on what i'm changing the character dynamics into:

I've also been playing around with character designs, because - and please noone take this personally - i absolutely loathe what some character look like, especially the characters in Wizards, like, ugh... Armor design isn't my strong suit but maaan... Also, can I just say that Morgana looks whack af?? Like, girl's NOT from medieval times - not saying that my design is much better on that front, but it's not like this is my job or anything, i don't get paid for this, it's just for fun

I also changed Merlin, to... maybe smth more generic, but idk i like long, flowing fabrics and long haired old men, sue me

Additionally I've been taking notes on how I'd characterise the Arcane Order as I am not a fan of their treatment in canon

Bellroc is by far my fave of the Arcane order to think about, so i've got the most notes on them

I'm probs gonna be updating my notes on them as I go, but these are to serve as my personal guidelines on how to write them

I've also got these dumb doodles, the one on the left was done in the middle of the night while i was taking notes on the arcane order, the other ones were just character design exploration
