drawtober day 4: reach

skynel gathers some wickvine for her dad’s and uncle’s alchemy shop.

[id: a colorless drawing featuring skynel the elf. she is standing on top of a stepladder, her ears perked up, struggling to reach a vine, which is hanging down from the branches of a tree with a trunk covered in large thorns. there are other vines as well, and a few big thin-petaled flowers in the leaves. in the distance is a gentle hill, a far-off mountain, and a sky with some fluffy clouds. end id]

drawtober day 5: lonely

montegracyn travels through the frozen wastes of maekrenia’s northern island.

[id: a sketch of montegracyn the dragon. she is walking through a blizzard, her head hunched down and her wings hooked out in front of her to protect herself from the wind and snow. there is some grass poking out of the snow, and a single small, scrawny tree. several moons loom over her, the only things visible through the fog. end id]

drawtober 3: tradition

montegracyn watches the lanterns lift into the sky, memories of those lost carried to the moon lace.

[id: a sketch featuring montegracyn (or monty for short), a dragon. she has ridged horns, three smaller horns on her cheeks, and a scar near her eye. she is walking along a path next to a short, overgrown brick wall. it overlooks a park and a city. there are dozens of glowing lanterns floating up into the sky, which she is watching with a somber expression. there are several moons in different phases stretching across the sky, which is known as the moon lace. end id]

dragons :)

characters are montegracyn (she/her) or just monty, clemencia or mencie (she/her), ashival (she/her), and wolfwick (he/him).

some notes about them under read-more, if ur curious

so, montegracyn and clemencia are sisters. monty is kinda ur sad loner type? both her and mencie went through a lot in life, but monty refused to really heal, so she’s kinda run off by herself and now she’s a mercenary-for-hire. she’ll do anything for the right price, short of straight-up murder. her son is edmunathy, but she doesn’t really, like, have a mother-son relationship with him; she gave him up to her old friend, an elf named sey’miah, when he was just an egg. she still occasionally visits, though.

mencie is around a lot more. she’s the cool, chill aunt. when she was little she lost her left wing, eye, and front leg in a fight with rocs (which is also where monty got her shoulder scars from, and also where they lost their brother, bromalyn). she’s doing pretty ok nowadays, though.

ashival + wolfwick aren’t related by blood, but they’re best friends forever and may as well be siblings. in youth, they were part of this guild of knights (who were basically one big family), though they were mischievous little punks who were honestly sorta mean to their peers. then there was this big ol war between their guild and another faction who was trying to take everybody else over, which ended very, very badly; everybody in the guild was wiped out. ashival and wolfwick only survived because they chose a very... extreme means of escape and staying under the radar, which actually worked for several decades. after all, the magic in maekrenia is a fickle thing, and one is able to change their very essence if they’re desperate enough and talk to the right people.

was going through a sketchbook n found a bunch of old concepts for various characters so uh! yeah

felric + jackal are the same character, his current name is edmunathy (I had a lot of trouble with his name haha). the naga in the 3rd picture is linn, but her design is much more snakelike now. the prruma (a species name which im considering yeeting) in the fourth pic isn't rlly anyone in particular. maekren got changed a LOT to the point she's not even the same character anymore, buuut she's technically ashival now.

everybody went through a LOT of changes the past few years fhsjdhsjshsj (though I believe sylvania + clemencia more-or-less remained the same but still.)
