I am back with more whiteboard sketches! This time featuring my character, Tulei :3
Tulei is a bit of a hermit, socially inept and has little to no magical abilities. He is also a bit of a workaholic, as well as the mentor and father figure of Merle.
Here's also a drawing from my sketchbook of him, with her, when she was still a child.

"In the capital city, Manta Races are often a city-wide event. Fans wave flags and scatter flower petals in support of their favorite racing pair while the Mantas and their jockeys weave through the city's spires and bridges at near-reckless speeds. Overall, an incredibly enjoyable spectacle."
Working on some original art from my childhood imaginary land - Lacasia! If people like this sort of thing I'd like to do more pieces exploring the world ♥
Also, some zoomed-in highlights I particularly enjoyed:
The legend behind Siorghlas, a piece of land surrounded entirely by impassible mountains and ocean, is that it sits on the grave of a dead god.
The God of the Void, or as the people of Siorghlas call it, “the Eigengrau,” was struck from the cosmos after a particularly violent spat with its divine brethren. When it landed, it created a crater in the barren soil beneath it and from its corpse it bled life. Not long after sprung up flora and fauna, and eventually, people and settlements.
A little doodle of Joseph still not used to Jack as a separate individual. It's strange for him to see someone else with his face and the character he used to play, while Jack (who undoubtedly remembers that he erased him, or so he thought, and according to my lore recollection—you can correct me if anything has changed) tries to "get on his good side" to avoid trouble.
during the early period of the 20th century, where technology has slowly advanced to analog contraptions, leading to a world trapped in time. but in this world exists horrors and mysteries left undiscovered or left ignorantly at bay. the fantastical and horrifying exist for people to investigate and understand, either that or leave it to the bliss of ignorance to keep their status quo and their safety.
here are the details of the world that is Cosmic horror downtown.
in this world exists entities that hide around every corner, ancient tomes and arcana exist to be harnessed or observed. but the status quo is that of ignorant bliss hiding away these anomalies, creating distractions to keep themselves safe. sure, they advanced to technology like the modern age, albeit more analog and cassette futurism in mind. within this world does hold people who wish to know more of the strange and unknown while warding them away to keep the public "safe". thus, naming the secret society; W.A.R.D.
╔══ BOUNDARIES / FYI / FAQ ══╗
can I make fan made content in the world? yes you can, long as you credit the world back to me. no commercial use or copyright, please be respectful.
can I make oc's? yes, you can, that's what I hope for. I want others to enjoy and make stories of their own to enjoy in this world. you can even make your own monsters, alien races, and even entities.
what are your boundaries related to the world? there's freedom involved but as long as your respectful and don't go too far in making others uncomfortable. this is a safe space for horror fans of the eldritch. I also would also prefer you stay safe with the heavy topics that this world of mine' faces.
what are the inspirations for chd? usually from some of my favorite podcasts or shows that relate to the esoteric and monsters. here's a list of them. -doctor who, the magnus protocol, the magnus archives, the silt verses, malevolent, monster of the week, carnival row, scp, Scooby doo mystery incorporated, Lovecraft, fear & hunger, cthulhu mythos, house of leaves, alien, etc.
how does the world of chd work? the world is stuck in a 20th century styled period with advanced technology for its time that relates to cassette futurism or Gaslamp fantasy. the history is ancient similar to that of the Cthulhu mythos, but unique of its own. there exist entities, aliens, monsters, ghosts, and even "gods" in the world. but the world is kept ignorant from the horrors that surround, not just that of the paranormal. existing an almost utopian world where the status quo is kept alive for the safety from the horrors. the source of these entities varies depending on where they're from, either from space or of the world they form. but usually they all source from a god trapped in the inbetween. [look at the diagram below]

THE EKANOX: A CITY OF ORGANS / MARROWS
FULL LORE IS UNDER CUT!!
SPEEDPAINT HERE
Over the six thousand years that followed the arrival of the great beast, the Ekanox, the Earth had begun to change. The Ekanox roamed the outer crust of the planet, and as a result, what existed before had been buried beneath miles of flesh and organic material. Oceans replaced with blood. Rivers flowed with bile and filth. Humanity died. All that remained was a spherical corpse, the mindscape of the Ekanox now whispered upon the world. The Ekanox did not transform this planet with energy, rather, it’s mere existence was what changed the planet.
What came with the Ekanox’s influence was a new, fleshy substance known as the “ekaris”. Ekaris is an organic flesh-material that mimics human DNA that is tethered to the metaphysical influence of the Ekanox and it grows relentlessly like a fungus.
some recent worldbuilding art for "THE EKANOX" ! i've been wanting to revisit my old concept art since a lot of it is over three years old and my art has improved a lot since then. not only that, i've since had a more solid vision for how i want to portray the world of the ekanox both in terms of narrative and environmentally. so, as i work through redrawing old art, why not start with the most iconic part of akuria: the marrows and cities of flesh!
full lore on the marrows! :^)
Over the six thousand years that followed the arrival of the great beast, the Ekanox, the Earth had begun to change. The Ekanox roamed the outer crust of the planet, and as a result, what existed before had been buried beneath miles of flesh and organic material. Oceans replaced with blood. Rivers flowed with bile and filth. Humanity died. All that remained was a spherical corpse, the mindscape of the Ekanox now whispered upon the world. The Ekanox did not transform this planet with exclusively energy, rather, it’s mere existence was what changed the planet. What came with the Ekanox’s influence was a new, fleshy substance known as the “ekaris”. Ekaris is an organic flesh-material that mimics human DNA that is tethered to the metaphysical influence of the Ekanox and it grows relentlessly like a fungus.
Flesh skyscrapers, better known as "marrows", are massive geometric structures of ekaris resembling man-made structures such as skyscrapers, buildings, and even old world vehicles. However, it should be noted that these structures have grown in complete independence upon previously existing structures. They form entirely on their own, a craft of the Ekanox’s subconscious. In better words, cities of marrow arise as a physical, real-world representation of the Ekanox’s mind.
Marrows grow spontaneously as the fleshy, unpurified landscape continues to expand day by day. Marrows have a solid internal structure that acts as a “skeleton”, with a mostly soft outer layer, resembling human skin and tendon. These sinew skyscrapers will collect residual parts, including local infected, which will then merge with the rest of the structure, making for the illusion of a city or town made from flesh. Marrows are usually completely solid, however, some may be hollow and will even possess levels, stairs, and windows as a normal building would. Marrows range from heights of twenty to two hundred feet in size, and taller. There is no definitive height when applied to marrows. Due to their organic nature, marrows may decay if no new matter is collected or growing across them.
Marrows are a natural beauty of the Dead Zone. Despite the different biomes and ecologies that dominate this now meat-covered world, marrows are present in almost every one. It should be noted that obelisks and marrows are not the same but are “related” biologically.
BONUS LORE: SEE THE MARROWS IN ACTION... THE CITY OF EMPIRIUS
Empirius is a massive city of flesh located in the center of the Nesting Grounds, surrounded by it’s own replica of the Blood Wall. Empirius is not grown over the rubble of a city, rather, it is a fleshy reconstruction of a cityscape; the Ekanox's perception on recreating man made structures from the remnants of decay scattered around the land. The massive skyscrapers and walls are made from stray ekaris and infected that homogenized with this living flesh.
Some skyscrapers may have limbs, bones, teeth, organs, and other body parts protruding from them, though they are mostly just gargantuan monoliths of skin and meat. The air of Empirius is not entirely breathable due to the abundance of organic matter which attracts a variety of infections and viruses. While these are unrelated to the Pestilence, they thrive in the fleshy city that the Pestilence has grown. When travelling through Empirius, full body coverings and masks are required to safely make a trek across the organic landscape. Many avoid Empirius if possible.
Other than being an ever growing mimic of man-made cities the most noticeable about the city of Empirius is how these vast, false skyscrapers seem to shift and move. The structure of the city and the placements of the skyscrapers are ever changing. Due to being a terrain made of live biologial matter, the flesh that covers the land of this vast city acts almost as if it is one whole organism, meaning that it moves and "breathes" like one as well.
Idk who actually sees my posts, but I felt some would appreciate these. These are based on a little fantasy world I created. Mel is something called a Golrau, Viktor, Jinx, and Vi are Bloodkin, and Jayce is half Sandfolk.
fact, but really bad for Viktor’s self esteem: for Bloodkin, dark horns are a sign of health because it means you have high levels of Blackbone in your body, which is extremely important to Bloodkin biology. Without it, their body has a hard time circulating nutrients, oxygen, and minerals throughout itself.
It also limits their capacity for growth, pain tolerance, and self defence mechanisms such as The Drone (a sound emitted by Blackbone that exists on a frequency only beings with sensitive ears can hear), which deters predators.
in Viktor’s case, he has very light horns, indicating abnormally low levels of Blackbone, which as already stated, is extremely harmful. In this AU, this probably contributes to a lot of his health problems (atrophy, chronic pain, etc). I may not even include his cough, but I want to at some point. I’ll have to think about it.
