Aniline's sprites which I created for my game jam game Pbouxhkiir Night on the Primox Alpha.
She was a very fun character to design and draw, and she has the most expressions out of the three characters.
The premise of the Pbouxhkiir Night cast was a long-running concept that I had reused a few times (in various things that never saw the light of day). The idea was "what if something's cast was comprised entirely of aliens who were all from wildly different genres of sci-fi?".
Annie specifically was designed to evoke the designs of Kirby and Mario characters, and the cute (and melancholy) way those games depict outer space. I thought it would be funny if, in contrast to this, she's the rudest and most spiteful character in the cast.
She's some kind of comet person, which I imagine living on a very large timescale. She's probably multiple hundred years old. Her colors are constantly flickering and shifting.
By the way, the chemical "aniline" has multiple pronunciations, but I've been saying her name /ˈænəˌlaɪn/.

Annie's design, specifically, was a concept that I reused multiple times. The last appearance was in an alien paramedic game concept that @wyntonyang and I discussed in early 2021.
(I still want to revisit this game idea one day. Also, nothing in this image is canonical to the Pbouxhkiir Night universe.)

The earliest iteration of this character was, I believe, a concept for a protagonist of a Kirby dating sim which I discussed with some friends in 2018.
This is a completely different character by now, lol.
elk of hiisi is a powerful and near impossible to capture elk created by hiisi, a type of mischievous demon or goblin creatures, out of materials from the forest
it'll lead hunters to mountains of the underworld and creates chaos wherever it goes
