Because I love the background characters in Tyranny too much, here’s my interpretation of Layla, Nunoval’s lover in the short story “Carved of Shadow, Crept from Darkness” by Megan Starks (and also some extra rough sketches).
For this, I used a handful of descriptive sentences from the short story for reference, namely:
“[...] tough as bronze,” “[...] abs bunching beneath, taut, bronzed skin,”
“[...] eyes half-focused and bluer than the northern sky.”
“[...] her hair spilled around her like a golden crown.”
...keep in mind, Nunoval is the point-of-view character and he is clearly biased in his descriptions of her, so who knows I might be way off mark here with my ripped and statuesque babe imagining. ;D
I also got the impression she was a Fatebinder or at least directly affiliated with the Court, so I made sure to include Tunon’s sigil and elements from the Fatebinder armour in the outfit.
