sick day doodle of Lea for her TRP

y’all mind if I just [backflips into the void]

This prant is most likest cattleya species. c warneri will bloom one after another now. My favorite season.

She is! She’s one of my Aeturna characters. Here’s a quick sketch of her I did at work:

aeturna all originate on an island heavily influenced by magical energy and worship a set of elemental primals they call gods; while there isn’t any existing record of a primal being born/created, they can certainly die and those that have passed have, for the most part, ended up making a sort of pact with an aeturna in which the primal’s spirit lives in their body and gives them power, essentially making them their avatar of sorts

the first aeturna were all created as by-products of the primals’ magic, with future generations being naturally born--very early on in Aeturna history Tael’alim decided he wanted more territory to himself and that he wanted more followers/worship so he fucked off and started killing other primals (the most noted of his victims being Aria’Noct and an unnamed Primal I’m using for the Lorekeeper), when he couldn’t get what he wanted by intimidation he would just straight-out kill and destroy, resulting in his name being cursed and instead of garnering a following he started a rebellion

Aeturna are all very adaptable creatures and when exposed to magic can pick it up and learn to wield it easily; the aeturna Hibara originated from was able to get close enough to Tael’alim to destroy his physical form, however this act basically disintegrated their body as well; Tael’alim used the last bit of his remaining power to basically piece the Aeturna’s body back together around one of his eyes and while both parties were technically “alive”, the resulting creature had no memory of who it was or where it came from (this is Hibara btw, welcome to the world my child), and was met with hostility by the local Aeturna clans who still saw her as nothing but a vessel for Tael’alim
