just realised i never put up my original refs for te'onu on here! super old art from 2022, originally made him for an IG challenge but he's now probably my favourite oc design. he's a temple guard who gets stationed on mid rim planets a lot and somehow has connections everywhere. super friendly but also very quiet and will just... stare at you. a lot. he's not used to having to talk to people cause he's generally the only one assigned to whatever temple he's guarding, but that means he gets a bunch of freedom and enjoys doing random sidequests whenever he feels like it.
his design is based off the turquoise-browed motmot and he's an omwati, but i've redesigned the entire omwati species- part of it is explained in his design (text on the art) and i have been planning a proper guide that i SWEAR i'm working on, i promise it will be done.. soon... perhaps
also i know the ref looks like it says te'ouu but it's te'onu, my handwriting just sucks sometimes
