A story with a few heroes always needs some good villains! In "The Cloven Thief," you'll get to meet this deliciously wicked trio Husk (the one-horned satyr) and his two satyr cronies, Grizzle and Henbane.

The Cloven Thief will be released September 25th in both paperback and ebook on both Amazon and Barnes & Noble!

Minotaur Starter Pack

Congratulations! If you're emotionally unstable, spatially confused, and built like a tank, you might just be rocking that Minotaur aesthetic.

Essentials:

Horned Headgear: Optional if you were born with horns, mandatory if you just want to vibe.

Permanent Resting Rage Face™: It’s not your fault you look like you want to fistfight the sun.

A Labyrinth You Can't Escape: Whether it's a literal maze or just your own bad life choices, you're stuck in it, buddy.

Unresolved Father Issues: Especially if your “father” is actually some king who really didn’t think through the consequences of messing with gods.

Absurd Upper Body Strength: Good for smashing walls, bad for delicate activities like... making friends.

Personality Traits:

70% Confused

20% Anger Issues

10% Just Wants a Hug But Hasn’t Figured Out How to Ask

Bonus points if you also have anxiety about being perceived in public spaces.

Daily Struggles:

Accidentally intimidating everyone you meet.

Losing at least three arguments per week with inanimate objects (walls, mostly).

Being mythologized as a "monster" when you really just have boundary issues and sensory overload.

Signature Moves:

Dramatic heavy breathing in dark hallways.

Getting irrationally attached to dead-end corridors.

Delivering devastating emotional truths in a low growl before retreating into the maze to cry about it.

TL;DR: If you are just a little too large, a little too misunderstood, and one minor inconvenience away from charging headfirst through a brick wall... Welcome to Minotaur Nation. We meet at the center of the labyrinth. Bring snacks.

The Oculotl

Hello everybody <3

I've been thinking about this post for a long time and now decided to finally do it.

Lately I have been working on a little project that popped into my mind two months ago. I invented a little fantasy creature called Oculotl (oculus(greek)=the eye)

Here a little scientific fact sheet

I found the idea so cute that I needed to make myself a plushie

As well as clay figurines

I also worked on more drawings

And even lino cuts

So, as you can see, I really put my heart into it and I really wanted to share it with you all and ask you about your thoughts and opinions.

If you like it as much as I do, you can find some of the designs on my redbubble account https://www.redbubble.com/people/NessaHero/shop?asc=u

I’ve been working on a small comic collaboration with a character of @forestanomaly (originally for artfight) but it’s taken a while, so here are some teasers :3

Mighty red dragons shenanigans

With magic fading away, dragons shrunk back to basically chaotic big rats, hoarding on trash like magpies. There's plenty of them but they never seem to grow bigger than that. If you lost a trinket or a sock, there's a high chance that you'll find it back on a dragons lair at the bottom of a bucket.

Tales of dragons bigger than a city, roaming the skies and burning villages during the Magic Ages are told to frighten little kids.

And yeah they're also cute asf
