Pups and Political Intrigue redesigns pt 2

Joseph Nguyen, Human Teenager, son of Charlie and Gina. Is a band kid, and has a soft spot for all things cute, especially his pet hamster Sir Squeaks-a-lot

Roman Hellenez, Prince of Xeris, son of Gavrii and Izira. What can he say? He's always been a sucker for blondes...

Gavrila Hellenez, Princess of Xeris, daughter of Gavrii and Varvara. Oh, you wanted the crown prince? Sorry, he's in another set...

Mikhail Bay, Prince of Runic, son of Mephisto and Iris. His sister isn't all she seems, but now he's actually allowed to be friends with her and that other friend of hers, so... this is fine.

Alejandro Myrle, Prince of Volta, son of Brenda and Mateo. He just... he loves cats so much, okay? He's not crying, you are.

Roksana Dzeko, Princess of Runic, daughter of Nathaniel and Praxina. She and her older brother are going to Rule Runic even if they have to physically fight every obstacle in their paths; Roxy's in it mostly for the chance to Fight!

Kai Aventura, Prince of Borealis, son of Lyna and Talia. What's going on in his head? He'd love to know, tell him what you find!

Ajay Bay, Prince of Ephedia, son of Iris and Mephisto. Legitimately believes he is the protagonist of a story book, and is living his life in search of his great adventure, or at least some kind of plot!

Ravi Bay, Prince of Ephedia, son of Iris and Mephisto. Doesn't quite believe his brother, but will support him in every decision; he prefers to be in the background, and no one will look in Ajay's shadow.

The other half of my set!

We might add more kids later, we'll see

I love designing characters...

Named Backgrounders

@curseofbunny and I picked some cute backgrounders to give names to, you've all seen 3 of them, but I'm working on some more pictures with number 4.

In order, these are the characters we've made with these guys:

Gavrii Laskaris, a royal guard of the Xerin Palace.

A smart, easygoing young man who gets along with most people he meets. Gavrii ends up as the personal guard for Izira, once the country rebuilds after the civil war ends.

Varvara Gataki is a mapmaker contracted by the palace. She has to update the maps held in the Xerin palace, checking the current borders of every country map kept by the Xerin Royalty. (Volta never checks their borders, so Varvara must check them herself. She spends her time in the wilds between Volta, Alcinous, Àine, and Calix, during the war.) She's a spitfire of a tiny little lady, she's sweet but perfectly willing to fight if she feels slighted. She runs into the rebels during her treks across borders.

The two of them meet and up with Izira and each other both before the fall of the palace. They meet again in the rebel camps, Gavrii insisting on watching Izira's tent and Varvara finding them while trekking through the jungles on Volta's borders.

They keep meeting and getting along even after Xeris rebuilds.

They usually end up married by the time Izira takes her crown as Queen.

Elisa Hyacinthus is a seamstress working in Knoxos, the capital city. She's got a good sense of business and a great head for customer service. She also travels across Xeris and through other countries to spread her wares. Elisa is as sharp as a whip and just as fast a talker. She'll talk circles around anyone and everyone if she thinks she can get away with it.

This sharpness tends to attract Voltans like Jodan and Valentina, who look for smart, capable partners who can dominate or at least match them in social situations.

For Jodan, Elisa is the witty spitfire who grabs his attention and holds it in universes where Talia, Lev, and Nathaniel are all taken. Elisa doesn't leave him wanting for anything, and is honestly a good match for his own quiet snark.

For Valentina, Elisa is a matching sun. Their light bounces off each other and only serves to make them both burn brighter and push harder against each other. They're a matched set.

In universes where Elisa dates neither of them, she can end up with Carissa's twin sister, Cerise. Cerise is more serious and angrier than Carissa, and bounces off of Elisa's own prickly-ness in a fun way.

And finally, the new guy!

Aleksander Melanthios is a Library Assistant from Byllis. He's a nervous man who gets sent out to scout for books for his boss, so he's been all over Ephedia. He runs into Valentina sometimes, and after meeting her 3 or 4 times and flirting openly each time.... they end up hooking up.

Valentina thinks he's absolutely adorable, and he finds her fire both inspiring and a little scary. They balance each other. Valentina needs someone who she can relax around, sometimes, and Xander is exactly that when they end up together.
