#riysraevir

A baby, perhaps a few months old, as still, quiet, and dark as night. His eyes were closed, as though sleeping. Shadowheart pulled off her cloak to wrap him before noticing he was already freezing.

“He's—He's cold. You said he would be alive!”

And he is, the archfey replied, sounding unbothered. I have granted you your boon. Our deal is complete.

Aaaand here's sketchdump (Riys' Version)! The other Night Sly kid. His design is 100% a combination of different traits from both parents, sometimes mixing the two (like his skin tone. gods, was that hard to get right). His personality is the same! He was lucky enough to get a shred of actual soul/independence, at least...

Neph oscillates between a very loving and doting mother and possibly the most neglectful and misandrist Boy Mom to ever exist. At least she 'hires' a babysitter (Vulnaar already lives in their house) instead of leaving them home alone, right??

Neph and Urchil have many quarrels about his hair, because Neph wants it Long and Beautiful whereas Urchil wants it Out Of His Damn Face What If Someone Attacks Him, Mom.

@tcustodisart took me a few weeks since I sent that ask about it but I really enjoyed drawing your weregirl!

Kid reveal! There's actually two!

The pale kid is Urchil, the adopted orphan who tried to pickpocket Neph and got kidnapped from a few posts ago. Most of his backstory is revealed in stories so I won't yap too much about it here, but he's a rogue/Selunite cleric in training. Insanely good at hiding and climbing, and has the demeanor of an extremely neurotic neglected cat.

The other boy is Riysraevir, Night Sly's biological kid. How does that work with two cis women? Well, with a lot of adventuring and doing some favors for the fae. Riysraevir is a changeling trapped in 3/4-elf (drow and moon elf) form, which doesn't cause him problems ever, definitely not...
