Wolves of the North - Part 1

First part of the wolf land.

Warriors
The snowy northern province of the Dog Realm, the homeland of the wolves is a hazardous place to visit if one's not prepared for the harsh weather of the north. The wolves are well-suited to survive in this cold, and they also make great fighters. Instead of dogs, the Jarl's warriors keep up the peace here, and protect the trade routes all over the mountains.

Garrison
The wolves of the north can protect ...

Deer History - Part 2

King

The deer had a lot of kings, but one of the most important was the one who thought the deer should share their kingdom with the other dwellers of the forest, just like they do with their knowledge. The king regularly invited groups of different cultures to his court, based on the knowledge served by the academy, and asked them to show him one of their traditions. He accepted a lot of different folks in his kingdom, but there was one culture he grew more fond of tha...

Desert - Prince's Journey - Part 2

The prince's journey continues.

Scene 5

The desert is just as cruel as they were warned. Crossing the endless dunes while being under the scorching sun is something they didn't properly prepared for, but it seems like they passed the hardest part of the journey and the river is already in sight. It would be the best to resupply in the nearby settlement while asking around for transportation. Finding a ship to the city would be the best scenario. The prince also an...

It's a long road ahead of him so one of the huntresses was selected by the king as an escort to help him with his journey, and make sure he reaches the city in reasonable time. Said huntress has never had the chance to visit other regions so she was eager to take this mission.

Desert City Characters

Last month I did a lot of solo daily life drawings for this theme as a practice and I really liked how some of them turned out, so I spent a little extra time to polish my favorites for posting. Not much of a story for these pieces, but I hope you'll enjoy these peaceful moments of the desert folks. :)

Desert city - Council of the Speakers

The only big city in the desert besides Oasis is the City of the Speakers. This city is ruled by the council of the speakers who represents the will of the heroes who freed the city from the reign of the gryphons a long time ago.

Let's see how some of the members of this council spend their time.

There are also pools for a quick way to cool down in the water while not leaving the resort grounds, supervised by fennec lifeguards who are working hard to make ...

Resort sketches - Forest resort

A new day of fun and relaxation in the nature, at the forest resort. There is an activity suited for everyone here, even for those who spend most of their time in the city. To meet new people, there is no better time than the morning, when the walkways next to the rooms are getting busy. The river is a good place for a quick refreshment, especially if someone knows the good places around. Some may look for other forms of relaxation, and visit the outdoor spa for a massage. This place is mostl...

Huntress
It's one of the huntresses' duty to patrol the region, to make sure everything is right in the villages of the hooved folks. This job is usually being done by trainees, as it's a good way to learn all the basics a huntress needs to do. Getting the hottest rumors out of the villagers needs a lot of practice, and the technique can also prove usefull during an audience with the king.

Shaman
The shaman of the village has a remedy for almost e...

Savanna sketches - Wild dogs

Tradition
Wild dog tribes have a lot of different kind of interactions between each other. It's common for a tribe to send one of their own members to one of the other tribes as an offering to deepen their ties. The new member needs to be fit and helpful to be accepted, so they usually face a whole tribe's worth of trials and challenges. If the elders think the new member is worthy, they hold a feast to celebrate them, and select one of their own to continue this tradition...

Town sketches - Part 3

Savanna Poll - 2025 March

After the remaining town stuff, we're going back to the savanna to do a little more explorations in the region. Before the reign of the lions, there were a lot of folks here, especially from the carnivore species, who were competing for territory and resources. Currently there is a time of peace and their interactions are more on the pleasant side.

Choose the carnivores you'd like to see more of. I plan to make a batch of sketches with the winners in the focus, and maybe add some intera...

Town sketches - Part 2

Foxes are here to bring mischief to the town.

One would think the best time to sneak into the town's fort is the night, but the bored guards can be really unpredictable when they think they're alone. It's a hard obstacle for most foxes. During the day, there are more guards, and sometimes they get caught while sneaking around, but these foxes are smart, and know how to turn this situation to their side. Actually, they seek these kind of fun more than the coins.

There are foxes who...

Town sketches - Part 1

Back to the Dog Realm, specifically a small town on the border of the pastures and the forest. While this place is not exactly the richest around the region, it's popular among a lot of different folks. Beside the commonfolk of the town, there are adventurers who prepare for their journey to the forest, and the hooved folk who are looking to sell their goods in the market. There are also visitors from the forest, since the scholars of the Academy get their supplies for their studies here, and...

Another day of chores for the adepts of the Dragon Archives. They are supposed to clear the paths of the courtyard after a snowy night, but one of them thought some sparring before the trial of strength might be more beneficial. As she were going around challenging everyone, it started to become clear why she had so much trouble with the trial of discipline. Once they complete all of the trials ahead of them, they can join the lore keepers protecting the anci...

Travellers who are up for some sightseeing might want to choose a fox li...

Gryphon sketches

The life is so busy in this place since the last king opened Oasis up to the outsiders. Nowadays, under the Queen's reign, the gryphons get along well and enrich each other's cultures with the other species of the region. Even though most of them live in the outer city, built around the fresh waters of Oasis, a lot of them found their new home behind the walls of the lower city. Getting up to the city gates is still tricky without wings, but their new friends are willing to help with that pro...

Oasis

The caravan arrives at the grand city of Oasis, the home of the gryphons. The city's ever-flowing water makes it a major hotspot for merchants and travellers from all the surrounding regions. As it greatly depends on the constant flow of goods, the city provides all the supplies and rest that caravans need for their journey. The queen also pays generously for luxuries from faraway lands and sends her best to retrieve the goods.

Forest Sketches - Otters

Everyone knows that the best place to take a break on a journey through the forest is at the side of the river. There's nothing better than cooling off in the water after a long walk and watching the otters having their fun. Sometimes they even come up to the wanderers and play tricks on them, especially when it's a new face around.

Forest Sketches - Deep forest

There are interesting things going on in the deeper parts of the forest. Let's see two scenes from there.

It may be rare, but there are times when forest folk discover or unearth crystals said to contain mysterious energies. Though these things have no value to ordinary people, they can be used for something deeper in the forest. In the ruins of an old kingdom, lizards are accepting these kind of gifts for a small favor in return. They love these shiny things for some reason.

The ...

Forest Sketches - Dryad

It's rare to see the tenders of the forest, so dryad sightings are always memorable. No one knows where they comes from, they are elusive and doing their work secretly, but there are times when they show themselves to the lucky passersby. They say it brings good fortune to offer help to one of them. Whether it's true or not, whenever they have the chance, the forest folk do their best to earn the dryad's blessing.

She's supposed to send letters to the other nobles of the kingdom, but her scribe is writing them too slowly. She has an idea how to speed up the process.
