I wanted to draw Kala being dragged (physically and verbally) while spilling some of his lore and it became more than a doodle with a drawing of the entire team

it's been more than a year since we confronted the drug dealers in the alleyway while Kala disguised themself as a human patriar!!!!!
I've drawn a more recent hu-Kala, my second ever human depiction of him ππ¦
he still has some dimple but has rounder features ... I can't believe i didn't give him big earrings again like the first time. πππ





I've never drawn or thought about how Kala might look like as a human before!

In our latest session, we faced an undead death cleric that was in control of 8 undead minotaur skeletons and 4 muzzuloths. ...Actually, uh, I think we are still in comebat. It is ummmm ... a harrowing situation ... to put it lightly. πππ Our tiefling used spider-climb to stradle behind our aarakocra to peek inside the building, and our wizard used misty step to join us... our rogue was left behind. sorry, Umbra. ππππ¦
the party:
β§ Niv Everhelm β§ Tiefling β§ Steel Defending Artificer @thecubspeaks
β‘ Kala Alaya'an β‘ Aarakocra β‘ Glamour Bard @tako-plays (that me!)
β Orivaris Altori Lutris β Air Genasi β Bladesinging Wizard @jenniguess
β€ Umbra β€ Possible Aasimar? β€ Theif Rogue @evilhasnever
Our DM: @goodnyte!

hmm did anyone else draw their bard like this when Kendrick did the thing a week or whatever ago?
"WOP WOP WOP WOP GALIENE GO FUCK 'EM UP" was actually the first part of the verse remix I thought of. Bc our DM was like... "Who's Drake in this situation? Kreeg?" And yes. Galiene is our former cleric of Torm, who belongs to @thecubspeaks β€οΈ
The thing about not having an intense obsession with aaracokra OCs is that now I have to consider their inverted knees. So. Yeah. Short speed art video.

Love isβ¦ letting your boyfriend live the lie that heβs 6β tall when he isnβt.
The love I have for Nicander and Ori (Nori) is unhealthy.
Nicander is @thecubspeaksβ character!
