I love your oc Taru!! Would you be comfortable sharing some more artwork of him and some of his personality? Hes so cute and grumpy looking lol
Oh boy! Well first of all, he’s kind of an old oc I havent worked with in aaages.
He’s a Darygo, some fictional fantasy species I created, a mix of gargoyle and dragon. Heavily inspired by Disney’s Gargoyles and my love for dragons and humanoid characters, aha! I never got around polishing his species very much though, most info is still very loose and inconcrete…
Basic stuff about him is; One stuck up guy he is, tries to act serious because he’s the son of one of the elders that lead his clan. Snobby and snarky, yet with a touch of softness in him. You’re not wrong from assuming he’s grumpy, cus he sure is! One big grumpy butt.
I could spare you the old art cringe-fest, though I managed to find a few decent old pictures of him (and Salia, his partner) so you’re in luck! Check ‘em out here: x x x x x
For more info about his species I shall put it under a cut.
The Darygo are very tall, strong humanoid creatures, with wings and prehensile tails, 3 fingers and a thumb on hands and feet, long ears, feline-like eyes. Their different clans live around mountains, forests,deserts, and sometimes swamps. Their bodies are covered in short fur, though it varies depending on the area they live in; Mountain Darygo have thicker fluffier fur while desert Darygo have very thin fur that makes them look nearly fur-less.
They’re omnivores, really good hunters, they actually have a fairly civilized society. There’s merchants that travel to trade resources from members of other clans.
They really don’t like humans as there was a time they were persecuted and hunt down for sport to get their paws, wings, and ears as trophies. Although the hunting has decreased, the Darygo no longer trust humans and cannot accept any peace treaty.
If they were to see a human walking among them, they’d react the same way a person reacts to a mouse in their kitchen or a bear roaming around their backyard. “Throw food at it, maybe it’ll lure them away.” “Are you serious? You know what happens when you feed a human? They will keep coming back for more!”
I once tried making a reference sheet of them though never got around finishing it ever AHA oh boy… they’re really in dire need a redesign now.
Me and my twin sister were sitting with our mom at 11:00 pm talking about the movie we had just saw earlier when my mom and i remembered about the big bag of candy (95 pieces). ALL of the baby ruthes had been picked out and were missing. we knew my sister (gorjus-bacon) loves them and definitely had a few for the movie. we DIDN'T know she still had a horde in her purse. she pulled them all out and expressed her guilt in her benadryl drunken stooper. she proceeds to eat them all, each and every one. as she cries about her guilt. mom is amazed i am tired. yet in her guilty sugared state she still went to sleep but not before “flashing” me and scarring me.
