Oof, I made it! XD
I'll be posting these in TH in a second (for details + lore), but there's also a quick summary here! Just edited my previous post to fit everything in one place
#AnomalosOC

An image of two men from a fantasy setting, in different poses. To the left, we have them blushing and holding each other in a tender embrace - with a small sketch showing the human (Kairos) biting the half-orc (Sorem)'s cheek, with hearts around his face.

To the right, we have chibi versions of them, with different outfits. Sorem is revealed to be an oracle, is missing a tusk, and looks buff and angry. On the other hand, Kairos is revealed to be a statue made of stone, with chains around his wrist and hair turning into water. His second and third alternate designs show him as a (supposedly) human witch, whose tears are made of blood. In his semi-corrupted state, one of his scleras is black and he drinks blood.

A screenshot that reads:
A drunk Sorem (the half-orc) ends up finding a statue of a man, half-submerged in water. Due to his state, he mistakes it for a real person, steals it and takes him to his room in order to heal it. Once sober, he decides to return the statue where it belongs. A little too late now...

The statue was once a human, Kairos. After years, he has finally found someone who saw him as a human, and not a thing. Thus breaking his curse and allowing him to live again. Kinda.

Another cutie for the lovely @boninox.bsky.social 🫶
I was really happy with how her expression came out 🥹💖

An illustrated portrait of a pale elven woman with curly purple hair and blue eyes faced towards the right with a big smile and a hand up delicately near her face. She wears a pastel pink top with white puffy sleeves and a pink ribbon on her collar. She also wears a light pink beret with a darker pink ribbon attached to the side and some yellow flowers decorate it. Similar yellow flowers feature next to her to the left side of the white canvas.

National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation.

Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

Jabby 🍉2026 IS THE YEAR OF THE OC!!!

@jabby.bsky.social

My entry for @catmiint.bsky.social 's OC design contest!! It's Mikan, and he's a cleric who was almost turned into a witch against his will!! 🫶

#AnomalosOC #ocs #doodle

A redesign of my OC Mikan in the Anomalos Universe; he is a tall individual with fair skin and moles on his face. He has antlers and a tail, as well as elf ears. I gave him glasses because I thought it'd be cute... On the right is a transformed version of him, where he is a black-robed crow with a scythe and a plague mask.

His backstory is described as:

-Was raised to develop poisons for his noble family
- After refusing to continue his work, his family funded and framed all further crimes to being under his name [redacted]. This earned him the title "The Crow of Death", and despite his innocence it began his transformation with the Titan of Death.
- His family hoped his transformation would scare the rebellion out of him. It didn't. Afraid but stubborn in his refusal to harm others, he begged the God of Life to save him.
- Mikan was granted a Veil of Light that overrode the Titan of Death's power, on the condition that he didn't ever harm others.
