By gods how is it already the last day...! I may make another post if I do some more doodles, but for now here are some of my guys in their Halloween costumes!
You KNOW I had to draw Lutanatar and Corrak as Legolas and Gimli from LOTR! Would they be LOTR-heads in the Modern AU...?
And you KNOWWW I had to draw Red Lady ABSOLUTELY slaying in her Halloween costume (and Businessman being... Silly behind her). They probably had to attend some random Halloween party and you know she ain't missing out on looking gorgeous!!!
Who knows I might draw Opal and Gabe too ... Time-depending!

Also a HUGE HUGE thank you to bweirdart for hosting this October art challenge! Gods it was SUCH a blast :3
Anyways, I was so excited to get back to drawing my guys Lutanatar and Corrak!!! A quicker sketch today contrasting their dynamic if their personalities (and knife-wielding) was swapped!
Top is normal, bottom is the swap. Ofc I personally like the normal drawing better, but flustered Corrak is so cuuute!!!!! And a confident smiling Lutanatar??? Say it ain't so!!!!! (Swap just swaps their personalities and outfits, not backstories)
I also sketched what present day swap Corrak would look like...
Oh man... The knife... (The weird thing behind him is supposed to be an Ouroboros. Um yeah I need to draw snakes more lol)
Using some old art for today because it's ramble time again babey (this isn't really canon with how their personalities are but I digress! Let him show off his hubby once in a while!)!!!!! This is Lutanatar (y'all know him ;3) and his husbandt, Corrak <333 I adore them with all my heart and I'm obsessed with them..... Lore under the cut!
The two of them are the founders of the town where my D&D campaign takes place in/around, they left the underdark around 310 years ago, each for their own reason, and founded Lutarrak, a town where nobody is turned away and all are welcome. It's primarily a mining and forging town, but over the years farms have been popping up at the edges of the town as it expanded.
(I should mention that Lutanatar is a Drow and Corrak is a Duergar but they're my own 'versions' of the peoples in D&D 'canon')
Lutanatar is much more reserved than Corrak, taking care of all the administrative and paperwork things that have to do with being the heads of a town/community, and Corrak is the 'face' of the town, always being around to help.
The in-between time from the founding of the town to the current day isn't too well-fleshed out, but in the current day, neither of the founders are heading/taking care of Lutarrak. A mine collapse during the town's 300th anniversary caused a lot of havoc, and various events led to one founder being found (hah) dead in the morning and the other missing.
BUT THAT'S A STORY FOR ANOTHER TIME! BACK TO THE FLUFF!!!
As is typical of long-lived peoples, the two coexist as founding partners and close friends for a long time (long time = decades), probably mutually pining idk I haven't thought about it that much, basically when they come to the surface and found the town they're like business partners and best friends and somewhere along the way they become romantic partners :3
I LOVE THEM SO MUCHHHHHHH <3 I MADE THEIR STORY TRAGIC (more on that at a later date) BUT IT'S OKAY THAT'S WHAT AUs ARE FORRRRR
This is some slightly older art that I drew of Lutarrak (the town Lutanatar and Corrak founded) for my campaign. It's the only home Lutanatar cares to speak of, and though he's never really liked naming things after people, I think he'd be fine with the local tavern being renamed Corrak's Keep after the events of the past 10 years.
(more lore below the cut but basically yeah this is their home! They live(d) in the Founder's Home on the map)
The town was built out from the Town Square (where the Founder's Statue is, which was erected in the town's 250th year) which was where the two founders made their first home after escaping/leaving the underdark. You can see the farms that popped up over the years, made to accommodate the growing population of townsfolk. There's a small school, and after the Mine's collapse there was a proper cemetery built (previously the passed had been buried near their homes).
Lutarrak is a well-loved trade route stop for merchants during the merchant season, now again since the mine collapse was reversed and the mining operations are starting back up again.
I mentioned it before, but Lutarrak is primarily a mining and forging town, due to its extremely close proximity to the Ruinfore Mountain range, which is littered with cave entrances.
This is not the last you'll see of Lutarrak but it's all I had the time for today so here we are!!!
