My sons as mermaids!!! I just wanted to draw Storyteller and Song Xianquan tails intertwining, they are just AAAAH to me!

A chibi of my oc Echo in honor of MerMay! I haven't drawn her in a while but I have been wanting to redo her chibi from 2023 for a while!

I should be doing more to appreciate the lack of marvel movies in today's popular culture. I once yearned for marvel movies to have this level of irrelevance. They used to feel almost ozymandian, like an empire that had no beginning and no end. and now tony stark iron man is naught but two vast and trunkless legs of stone.

There was a whole ass Star Wars movie that premiered last Friday and it got overtaken by a million dollar horror film on the following Wednesday, nature is healing.

The problem with having OCs is that sometimes you wanna read about your little guy being in situations but unfortunately he is YOUR little guy and no one is gonna put him in that situation but you. Tragic.

A MerMay theme art trade I did for Mangou! I just loved making their characer into a mermaid ;;

Now this will be a little out of order from when I actually posed them!

First we have a dragon He Jianyong! I have been wanting to add more dragons to StorytellerVerse and he is the start! He is a river dragon, not nice but not too mean. He helps Jun for a bit as my JunJun has never met another dragon before. He has the biggest one-sided crush on Lan Xuehao, unknowing she was the one to curse this weird guy he just met.

Xu Xianji is Song Xianquan second in command! I am also slowly adding his sect members, starting with her! She has been in the sect for a long time and is very protective over Song Xianquan after knowing what their old sect leader did to him. She is cousins with Yu Anxin.

Yu Anxin only came to be after I saw the name and went, yeeees. He is another healer, of course. He is within the same sect as Shen Anxiao and Yin Anmu. He does not want to be there but cannot escape. So he travels as much as he can before he is inevitably sent back. I kinda wanted to make him a beast master but I liked the idea of him being a healer and following Shi Ruoxing. He is cousins to Xu Xianji.

A bit out of posting order but here are Jin Zhipeng and Zhihao! Instead of StorytellerVerse, I call this Lin Ning Verse lol

But these are the Bird and Tree within Lin Ning territory. One he loves and is protecting dearly and the other he hates with a burning passion for being absolutely annoying.

I ship the hell out of Lin Ning and Jin Zhipeng. So does Zhihao when they are awake lol

Days 23-25 and these 3 are new ladies! My beautiful flower demons! They have been in the notes for a while but originally as human ladies vs demons! I just think it's important to me that Critic is the only mortal in the group. I will put a bit more info below.

But Xie Yinghua, Ling Xun and Chun Wei are "sisters" who run an "inn". They mostly cater to demonic travelers. They live just outside of Lin Ning territory but they are extremely close to him (mostly Chun Wei as she often is seen running around his forest chasing the bird).

Xie Yinghua is the Madame of the place, she often deals with Xie Leiyu when he is around to cause trouble. She owe Storyteller a small debt she does not want to have and plays nice to him (he does not remember this and is always confused why she smiles and then glares at him).

Ling Xun and Stroyteller have a small history towards each other. He accidently saved her life and they grew close. It didn't get far and they would rather stay friends. She did try to help with his curse but failed and he was on his way. He often stops by with Jun now when traveling out of Lin Ning forest.

Chun Wei is the muscle. She is a bit unhinged and the other demons are a bit uncomfortable around her, mortals never see her coming. She loves to play around and Xie Yinghua often makes her run all that energy off with Lin Ning. Lin Ning has taken time to get used to her but does adore her (and she was the closest to killing the bird, so close but so far).

And now we are skipping some days as I was traveling (I will get those guys done eventually lol) and starting with days 20-22! My final redesigns and the start of expanding the StorytellerVerse cast! I am still deep in those trenches, I adore these guys so much!!

Of all the characters, I really did think Bai Yu, Critic and Shenglin deserves outfit upgrade the most (everyone at this point will be getting a quality of life update at some point tho). These guys will be updated on Art Fight soon!

[winterszone]

Omg! Completely forgot to continue posting my refs here! These are day 11-13, Aeron, Chad and Kazin!

These 3 I got during Art Fight 2023! They were some of the first to get this current ref style compared to who I drew in April of 2023! I love them to pieces and even did a kissweek pic in 2024 of Aeron and Chad (I don't think I actually ever posted it here tho lol).

I did keep their story's the same they just needed a design update so bad, it was on my docket for the longest time lol

Their OG refs down below!

Hi! @chthonicgodling and @fenixethekid

Gonna be honest, the moment I saw the post about the ears, I could not stop thinking about how cute baby Vryk is and how much I just wanted to pinch his cheeks. Also Did not know, when I made the headshot, that he belonged to someone else. But I know now. Either way, I'm too invested in this world and the characters. Still have no idea what is going on but I am enjoying every moment of it.

Also, Stop making OCs that scream for me to draw them because they are beautiful and I will (am). Thanks!
