Since I made one of these posts for Lotus, here’s one for Siradin (and Tahir, because they go together), Lots of old, embarassing art! (Young me clearly did not know how to draw Asian people. At all. >_>) Siradin was originally named Shian (Tahir was named Tsuru). He had magic powers, especially fire magic. He also had magical eyes that shifted colours according to his mood, ranging from bright gold to near black, because we have to be Extra. He had a tragic background of his family being murdered and sexual abuse, and he was trained as this super badass warrior in a secret order of some kind.  In one version of the story, he ended up becoming king, somehow? He wasn’t born into royalty, it was just kinda thrust on him. I don’t remember all the details. He had a wife and two sons in that version, while Tsuru was his advisor and secret lover. In another version they just settled down in Ceninma (proto-Chamyra) and were involved in a really obnoxious love triangle with Jhael (proto-Hadriel). Nr. 3 was one of my very first attempts at digital art. Nr. 4, right next to it, is a piece I hated already back when I did it, and it’s so hideous XD The half-naked dancing with impossibly swooshy hair one...? No idea what the context was for that one.
