Void Matter Forest Guardian

Doodling Siera's new form, with the added halos and the void matter/nanite body.  Void matter, being something that generates more of itself, will naturally generate larger quantities when coming from a larger source... such as a massive dragon that towers over the trees. Sierra's body handles this in three ways. 1) Converting the excess void matter into energy for the nanites. The sphinx form is balanced for this, as sierra was in that form when given the void matter, and thus rarely needs to rely on other methods when sphinx. 2) The Halos. The reasons the halos drip on most void critters, is that is how they safely get rid of the excess energy. Sierra's halos only start dripping if there's too much void matter for the nanites to convert into energy. 3) When in dragon form, the void energy also naturally fuels Sierra's innate plant affinity, producing an aura around her. Anthro dragon, being nearly twice as tall as sphinx, generates more void matter, but combining the plant aura with the nanites usually stops the halos from dripping. In addition, Sierra can 'seed an idea' to dump a large amount at one time. When Sierra takes a form that generates more than it can disperse (such as the large dragon), or a form without halos (such as Sao or Glitch Saber), the energy will continue to build up and will need to be dispersed later. If it's just a little build up, the halos can handle it. If it's too much for the halos, then it starts overflowing and amplifying the effect of the plant affinity aura.
