Before Li Mei became mentor of our Umgadi Girls, she was an Umgadi Girl herself! And this was her team!
The OG Umgadi Girls!
These are their current/adult looks btw, as it's how you'll see them through most of the AU!
Who are they (right to left)?
🦚 Grandmistress Amaya Shirai | The Peafowl:
The current leader and head healer of the Tengu, the first clan to join the Order of Cetrion and become the great protectors of life and nature!
She's also Harumi’s mom!
🌊 High Mage Amara | The Tempest:
Probably the most powerful Water Mage in Edenia and one of the most valuable and trusted members of Queen Sindel and King Jerrod's court!
She's Rain's mom!
⚔️ The Half-Tarkatan Kaliza:
The first born daughter of an Edenian Constable named Lupita, therefore bound to the Edenian traditions and assigned to become an Umgadi.
Despite being a highly skilled warrior, Kaliza faced constant prejudice due to her Tarkatan heritage. The Matrons Superior tried to erase any evidence of her time as Umgadi, but her friends made sure they never succeeded!
🏮 Umgadi Leader Li Mei:
The greatest Umgadi warrior of her generation. Coming from the far west, in the Edenian countryside, no one expected Li Mei to stand out the way she did, but her team's feats are considered legendary!
Still, the team had a very strict (and prejudiced) mentor and weren't allowed to do half as good as they knew they could. Now, as a mentor herself, Li Mei will make sure her Umgadi truly make a difference!
How were their dynamics?
They were all great friends but Kaliza and Li Mei were certainly the best friends!
They were very intelligent and skilled, but whenever the two of them were together it was as if all braincells had suddenly left the room, lol!
And yet, Li Mei was the team leader and Kaliza was her second in command!
As for Amara and Amaya, they had a friendly rivalry and sometimes had a hard time seeing eye to eye, but when it came to fighting side by side, they were the perfect match!
Sooooo, do any of you guys care to hear about the Umgadi Girls before the Umgadi Girls??😅💕
I've been meaning to do these designs for a while now, and I quite love how they turned out, and I hope you guys do too!
PS: NO TARKAT DISEASE BS IN THIS HOUSEHOLD!! TARKATANS ARE GREAT AS THEY ARE AND ARE HERE TO STAY >:O
