Putting up the art I made in my absence up here! This is the MC fro a project that might happen, things have shifted in my perspectives and we’re going to have to see how it plays out. This is Grace, a Fornmir commander-turned-freelancer who owns her own ship of misfits.

Morning blog of my cast so far...hmm, which 3 chapters in I might need to actually come up with a name for this thing!

I actually did some art today! This is Acacia, one of Sinara’s first friends that she makes on her journey. She is a Fornmir warrior who is assigned to protect the lands that Sianra is conducting her research in. The two of them meet and their fates become intertwined. She’s a woman of few words, and prefers action over speeches.

I could not help myself! I got a nerdy idea of Hao Yun awkwardly flirting with Taceo. I need to draw/ write more things like this, just cute stuff!

Here is the second character for the little idea I had. ---------------------------------------------------------

Taceo

Age: 105 Birthsign:  Diplomat Race: Fornmir Gender: Cis Woman Orientation:  Lesbian Birthplace: Talos village in the central grove Current home: Traveler, none Expertise: Herbalism, First aid, physiology Occupation: Mercenary, traveler, bodyguard Fav Food: Fresh Vegetables Fav. Colour: Purple

A fornmir assassin created during the war to deal with High-value Valhaer targets. When the peace treaties were signed, she didn't know what to do. She came home and tried to integrate into the ranger's core. But she was created for different purposes than guarding and patrolling the forests. After a few decades of trying to fit back into her village, Taceo made the rare decision to leave her home and explore the world. After many years of wandering she came across the small village of Tagato, and met the young guard by the name of Hao Yun. The two of them connected right away, and somehow the human was able to pull Taceo out of her shell. Taceo decided to spent whatever time she could with Hao Yun and try to share a life with her. For the first time since the war, she felt like she had a purpose.

Violla, Fornmir Illusionist, performer extraordinaire, breaker of hearts and keeper of promises. She’s a wandering soul who loves to bring joy to the hearts of children in the small villages she visits. More often than not, she also brings a fair share of justice to those who would prey on the weak.

Finished the pictures, and now the MASSIVE write-up for what might be my favorite race in my setting! The Fornmir.

They have always been here, and will forever be, the Fornmir are the children of the goddess Vathea. And are charged with the sacred task of defending her lands from corruption. Fornmir are known as the first ones, as every other race came to be well after the Fornmir had already been in full bloom. They are a pragmatic, staunch race, but they are not without pity or compassion. As the goddess teaches the value of all life, and the sanctity of nature. But over the years, and the harsh wars with the Valhaer, the Fornmir have had to grow sharp thorns to survive in the world and maintain a hold on their lands. All Fornmir are created by a magical ritual that only the elders of a village know. Thus things like coupling and mating are very foreign concepts to them. The closest thing Fornmir have is the bonds of battle sisters, but even that is different. All Fornmir are broken up into 4 ‘branches’ or aspects of life: Seer, Keeper, Guardian, and Warrior. Each one serves a specific role in Fornmir society. Seers, born with gold eyes, are the diplomats, magi, scholars and advisors. They are known for their wisdom, patience, and curiosity. Keepers are the workers, tenders, merchants, and builders. They are born with grey eyes, and are responsible for building and maintaining everything in Fornmir society. Guardians, the green-eyed commanders, are the stalwart protectors of the Fornmir lands. They are the Ranger-Generals. Warriors fight the battles for their lands. They are born with red eyes, and are the rarest of the castes, as Fornmir have not had cause to go to war for some time. Fornmir society is mostly made up of self-sufficient villages, with the Rangers, Wardens and Druids acting as independent armies that patrol the lands and garrison high-value areas. Of all the races, the Fornmir are the most magical, and they are the only race that know how to cultivate and shape the valuable mineral Aethercite.
