This thread will update as more characters are introduced and drawn.

That said, let's meet the cast of The Eteldez Legacy:

Starting with our lead, Cordam Eteldez!

Age: 20
Gender: ♀️
Species: Bat (gold-crowned flying fox/vampire bat)

Drawn by @dragonmellera.bsky.social . Character bio in alt text.

Cordam Eteldez is a joyful young bat who loves traveling, exploring, and lore and legends from around the world. Her magic power is extraordinarily strong, and she also hopes to find out why that is, especially since she fears her full power.

🦇CE: "This place reminds me of where I first met Plumplekins!"
🦨FP: "At least *one* of the ones you met there was a friend."

Author RT: Yep, the Henry Miller Estate Ruins was the inspiration for the old forest mansion in The Eteldez Legacy. If you're ever camping near Gilroy, CA, pay them a visit😄

A good buddy of Cordam’s. She names him Plumplekins😄

Age: adult (he's a fully matured being, though his numerical age is unknown)
Gender: ♂️
Species: Forest Spirit

Drawn by @dragonmellera.bsky.social , character bio in alt text of the leftmost pic.

Plumplekins is a forest spirit who looks like a mix between a black widow spider and a wasp. He is eager to live up to his job of being Cordam’s Guardian Spirit, especially considering he isn't exactly what many would consider prime material for such a position. He definitely isn't weak, though; his size-shifting ability comes in handy, as does his ability to naturally produce many kinds of medicines.

Oh, and he can also produce ink. In that regard, he'd make for a good pen😁

A support Cordam and Felicity meet in their travels, Conrad Altezzosius II! But don't call him Junior😁

Age: 23
Gender: ♂️
Species: Red Kangaroo

Collaboration between me (original sketch and colors) and @dragonmellera.bsky.social (cleanup and lines). Character bio in alt text.

And here's the co-lead, Felicity Pietasha! (Last name pronounced pee-eh-tasha)

Age: 20
Gender: ♀️
Species: Skunk (mainly striped skunk, with a little bit of spotted skunk)

Drawn by @dragonmellera.bsky.social . Character bio in alt text.

Felicity Pietasha is a cynical young adult skunk who luckily is not totally incapable of feeling happiness. She hopes to find out once and for all what became of her older sister. Though she finds Cordam's joviality annoying at times, she still values her as a friend.

Just don't laugh at the heart-shaped pattern on her rear end. She may not be able to skunk you due to being born without stench glands, but her proficiency in magic means she can emit a bright flash of light to temporarily blind whoever makes that mistake.

So as not to bury stuff about my story under my usual posting/reposting fare, I made a side account devoted entirely to it. You can find it at @eteldezmanor.bsky.social .
