Top to bottom: Oktober, Arabella, Dakota, Hayden, Marsha, Kalisto and Marisol

I'm uploading these old sketches of my etherea ocs to show of their tattoo wings. In their human form their wings manifest as tattoos/markings on their back. Their human form also sometimes holds onto other original characteristics of their etherean body, such as body markings and horns. It all depends how comfortable they feel in their human body. As they feel more comfortable, they appear more human like. The one exception are their halos, which always remain above their heads.

I feel as if I explained it so bad. I'm running on one braincell today

Dakota the shy nerd

HERE is some info on planet Etherea and HERE is the description of the species.

Dakota pretty much outranks everyone on Leviathan by being a cerine, but in reality she's an 'outcast'. Her physique is anything but strong, she's not a very graceful flyer and she's a nervous, anxious person. She might not have the strenght but surprisingly she posseses atmokinesis (weather control) much like a vemian. Dakota never showed any interest or skill in any type of physical activity, resulting in her being the odd one out of the cerine tier. Because of that, Dakota had a hard time forming relationships and friends. She instead found her love for literature and writting. She started working for different publications and eventually met Kalisto at a conference. Dakota was interested in researching other life forms and visiting planets, so Kalisto mentioned that they're still looking for crew members.

Since Leviathan arrived on Earth, she has read many books and did a lot of studies on humans. She accidentally discovered her interest, not only in humans but also in different animal species on the planet. Dakota and Hayden sometimes team up and do research together, even though they aren't the best of friends. Dakota also formed a deep connection with the newcomer, Arabella.

I've had it with instagram's stupid algorithm and shadowbans. It's no fun to have an art account on ig and everything feels way too strict and stressful. It just feels like a goddamn competition all the time. I'm gonna start posting more on tumblr and see what happens.

Have a sketch of my oc Dakota^
