OC Intros: @lemongrace​

Hi everyone, Lemongrace here! I’m an EU-based hobby artist from Poland with a great love for drawing and designing characters from a variety of games. I started out with World of Warcraft, only to branch out to the universes of FFXIV and D&D, and it’s been quite the fun journey!! Besides art and gaming, I’m also interested in history (partly due to my heritage) and learning new languages.

Who/what was the inspiration behind your original character?

Icatia was born out of the idea of a magical girl trope meeting Dungeons and Dragons. I’ve wanted an unapologetically cute character that would remain a beacon of hope in a world full of adversity, finding strength in her own softness. She’s a homage to the childhood heroines such as Usagi from Sailor Moon or Ichigo from Tokyo Mew Mew.

What made you want to create your own original character?

My friend was running a D&D game, and the previous character I made for the game didn’t click with me—so I turned to something I knew from previous RP ventures! Someone less abrasive and a little more wide-eyed in the big world.

Are there any similarities between you and your OC?

While I’d call us opposites for the most part, both me and Icatia are very much into indulging ourselves when an opportunity arises haha (only difference here being that she’s a rich fantasy noble, and I’m a freelance-hobby artist OTL).

Thanks for sharing your OC with us, Lemongrace! Check out more of their work here.

Apologies [OOC]

The writer has been gone for over a week for some very OOC, very personal IRL matters that consumed all attention. While back, there's still likely to be some distraction in the weeks to come. But there are also some good things in the queue:

Answers to recent asks

Artwork from the wonderful @lemongrace

A short to loosely wrap up TOA and introduce a new OC.

Planning to have the asks and short done before Sept. 5th, because there are some story ideas percolating from the upcoming patch - and gotta set those up!

No pressure.

@lemongrace ‘s d&d character, Aszga! they have the best taste in character design -- we’ve both playing half-orc fighter women with braids, face scars and fur capes (though Aszga looks very different to my Roansif)

Birthday Prompt

Saturday, May 20th, is Kyuusei's birthday! 920 years old (with the time skip), although she doesn't plan on doing much of anything until at least her 950th.

But let's say, for sake of argument, there was a party. Tasteful, casual, Alania might even talk Kyuu into wearing a dress. Held at Ashamane's Fall in Val'sharah with an expansive guest list including your muse/OC...

How would they arrive? What gift, if any, would they bring?

Art by @lemongrace, @vlada-artblog, @yuxingart & @saltmatey

Kyuusei Shadowleaf by the wonderful @lemongrace (who was such a pleasure to work with!)

Simply stunned. Her hair, her expression, that grin!

[kyuusei-shadowleaf]

Hey, it's May 20th - Kyuusei's birthday!

She might not do much for it (how many different ways can you have a birthday after 900-some years?) but thought it might be nice to celebrate with a birthday collage of some of the art that's helped bring her to life...

Artists: Lemongrace, Vlada, YuxingArt, and Saltmatey.
