Also, because I made her, I can make them fight

I can make them fight together

I can even make them...well

Anyway, I'm loving Silksong. Almost at the end now.

Also, made a bonus tiny Hornet with a Flea, because I had some leftover clay

Trobbio was, I thought, the best option for the Fool. The Three Hearts seemed to fit perfectly as High Priestess, Empress, and Emperor. Sherma for Hierophant because Sherma is perfect and without sin.

I recognize the Hanged Man isn't really a man in here, but Hanged Weaver just didn't fit in the box, so I left the title of the card intact. Lace was, I think, an interesting choice for Death, as her story is about learning to change when she's not meant to and, at the end, (spoilers, I guess) having someone not let her die. Groal had to be the Devil, because they are. Finally, Hornet seemed like the right choice for the World, what with her story being a journey both physical and personal, and it was fun giving a little space for her three moms (plus the weaver mask)

I'm so glad with how this came out. Making all the cards, the box, the back. I'm very proud of this work, and it was a lot of fun to do.

Only did the Major Arcana, because honestly I thought of creating some silksong-themed suits and making them, but the thought of drawing a full 76 cards seemed daunting, so I spared myself and did only these. Especially since some of those characters would inevitably have to be shifted into the Minor ones, and I did not want to have to figure out replacements.

The Lesbian Glaistig. I kinda took the idea of the Glaistig being a herder, and a myth which involved people putting milk in a hole in a rock as an offering. Of course, her rock hole has a bit more of a suggestive shape (Maybe that's why she likes to drink from that particular rock).

Gay Gnome, chosen because I love alliteration, and I have some Gay Bear friends, and I wanted to make him appeal to them specifically, so the fey most known for a nice beard seemed appropriate.

Bi Brownie, because once more alliteration, and also because Brownies are friendly, and so is one of my best friends, who's Bi.

Trans Toadstool (there's a lot of alliteration-based choices here), because I like mushrooms and find them wondrous and magical, just like transitioning.

Genderqueer Goblin, because yet again alliterative. He's also dressed like the genderest of all goblins: Jareth the Goblin King

Intersex Elf, because I think elves ought always very sex-ambiguous (and gender too, of course)

Ace Hob, because I thought it would be neat to have both Bi and Ace as friendly household fey. Also, gave it very chill vibes, because my ace friends are all like that.

Aromantic Leprechaun, for the simple reason that it's usually got green, and so does the Aro flag (look, there are a lot of identities, it's hard to really find good justifications for them all, so some are silly).

Enby Changeling, which I chose because Changelings give the vibe of deep down not being what one's parents and society expect and raise one to be, and having to, eventually, live and become what you truly are. Wasn't sure if I should make this Trans or Non-Binary, but the fact Toadstool alliterated with Trans was the deciding factor.

Pan Puck, because Puck from Midsummer Night's Dream is the type of trickster character that usually read as kinda Pan for me. Also they look like a satyr, or Pan. Oh, and, of course, we're back to alliteration.

Genderfluid Selkie, chosen because I wanted an aquatic fey that wasn't just a mermaid, or something horrifying like a Nucklavee.

Polyamorous Fairy Ring, because one cannot make a Fairy Ring without multiple Faeries. It's a coming together of many, all interconnected.
