Here is some non-satire for you:

nah they're fine, probably the most developed they've been in any of their games! it's just i wasn't really focusing on "lore-friendliness" so much as... mixing Priscilla and Yorshka's features in a way i liked when i sketched that first version lol

doesn't look like a dragon girl is in the cards for Nightreign if the 2 DLC Nightfarers that (apparently) got datamined are legit...

sketch of a hypothetical DLC Nightfarer, the Abomination. a half-dragon girl out to prove her worthiness to exist, or something

you might remember my first attempt, from back when we only knew like half of the characters. unlike then, i actually bothered looking at Elden Ring (ancient) dragons first this time around

though i drew her with a spear (Guardian uses halberds and Revenant seems built for scythes already. maybe i should've picked a twinblade?) i imagine her to be a STR build, which Nightreign has none of on the female characters' side. that's about all i have, the rest is up to Ishizaki...

alright, final update. the outfit from my original sketch recycled on one hand, and something for the people who bring up the (hideous, imo) SotE dragon priestess whenever this idea is discussed on the other
astygiansump.bsky.social
this turned out really good, thank you again for drawing her!

just the fact they're treated with civility while directly and deliberately making the world a worse place pisses me off so bad they deserve to rot

two of the world's biggest monsters in one place and we just let the opportunity slip by? what a disappointment

(i say anything, but fantasy characters and/or monsters in general overwhelmingly preferred)

the noise from my laptop's broken fan is driving me crazy does anyone want me to draw them anything for $50 so i can get it replaced

Just make it exist first. You can make it worse with each new pass while getting increasingly frustrated later.

much like "soul remains" was my most self-indulgent setting, ilistirgue is my most self-indulgent character, amalgam of most of the designs and/or ideas i've ever liked that she is
Reposted by Dia

her backstory is she's the man-made personification of another dimension, a limbo (i.e. the setting), created by people who came from outside now unable to leave in the hopes that the dimension itself could expel them... which she does, and is left all alone as a result. cue story, if i had one...

actually managed to not only make, but also rig (even if rudimentarily. blender did most of it automatically) a model of her! a herculean feat, considering it's me we're talking about here

after a certain point Ilistirgue gains a companion on her otherwise lonely journey through the dimension she embodies: Ssutilei (a part of them, anyway)
