Description Profile from Nerhil Salvain. 

I want to apology that I didn't respond yet on all the amazing guesses I got. And that this look so beaned my level of art skill. 
I have some issue's on my work what probably is bothering me more than I wished to. This is something I do notice in the energy what I got. (and the quality of my art) 
I get very fast tired lately so...I am a bid slow with everything. 

As respond on the guesses of this drawing: 


First of all, I got some amazing guesses. And I don't think I made it easy. Though Nerhil her purpose of my story is pretty straight forward. 
She is A Queen. So far everyone got this part correct. After that I noticed that the guesses went all directions. And honestly, I think a lot people even didn't close to her story at all. 
Unless the few people who already knew her or my original 'Chronicles of the Panduan' story. Nether the lest, all the guesses where such a pleasure to read thanks a lot! 

Again, this is something what happens because I do create art works so you can think a own story behind it as wel. And this one was a huge example of it. 
The only thing I wanted to get straight forward was that Queen Nerhil is a Queen. 

I wil explain the howl drawing now at last. 

The window: 
It's a symbol of her royal family. The symbol stands for their goddes Aihra. The goddess who watches over the planet and their nature. They believe that Aihra is responsible of their cyclus of life. 
I got a deeper explanation for the symbol but I keep it short for now. 

The flowery room itself: 
Akanathains don't live next to nature but together with their nature. This is how all their households looks alike. Full of flowers and plants. 
Of course they do have mages who manipulate the nature so they actually can build these kind of buildings. But they try to keep natural destruction on a low scale, even non existent. 

The Priest/Advisory in the back: 
He is the guy who raised Nerhil from the age of 11 when she became Queen. (Nerhil lost her parents on a jong age.) 
His name is Quintal and he is the royal priest of Nerhil's royal family.

Guards at the side of the room: 
I don't know why people actually think that they actually don't have asian influenced clothes. And why they thought that Nerhil came from a totally different nation. I assume it's  because of the colour they are wearing. For the rest I based their clothes on Asian martian arts clothes. So it's interesting that people see this different. They are lower rank guards of the Queen. They salute her respectfully when she walks inside the room. It's a normal morning ritual. (not a marriage )  They consider their status as a honorable one to have. 
They come from all over the planet so it's likely that they all have different kind of skin colors even believes. 

The Guy/Girl next to Nerhil: 
I made this on purpose that you would not recon this guy/girl. Just to see what people assume. And honestly the results where a pleasure to read. But the person next to Nerhil will be Tirvay an actually woman. She has a higher rank inside the Royal Guard. That's why she wears different clothes and even a amor. This also has something to do with her fighting style. 
Some people even did mentioned the hair colour, that it looks familiare. Because well...I just have one other character with a brown/redish colored hair like hers. 
And nothing else is true that Tirvay is a bigger sister of Falco. So she is a half Akanathian/Panduan. Her prosition is a strange one because usual half-bloods even ain't in a royal army. Let stand to be on a higher position as hers. 

Queen Nerhil: 
Beloved Queen of Azibo. People respect her. 
More about her: docs.google.com/document/d/1eQ…


Profile picture:
Like you  noticed I added a extra thing inside this one. Interesting was that a few people did mention that Nerhil did preform some kind of magic. While I never showed this inside this drawing.
And I am impressed that you guessed that part somehow. 
Nerhil is indeed a magic user. She can perform this magic in combination with with her Martial arts skill. This is just her style. Instead of saying a enchantment or use a magical object she just preforms certain movements to cast her magic. 
She learned this because it's usual in the Akanathian culture not to let this kind of skills go of in vain. Also, because Nerhil feels safer if she can protect her own like this. Especially after what she witnessed in her past. 

I think the expressions and her body structure tells their own story by them self.

Late to the party, but I really love that you did some of her expressions in her battle outfit! It really puts some background to when she would feel such emotions!


This entire profile is super cool, and I'm really excited to see more of Nerhil and her culture! I'm really fascinated by how you mixed different concepts together with her culture, since the clothing is asian-influenced, but the archetecture in her guess who looked much more celtic, and the color choices of blue as a royal color feels very interesting! Obviously "Royal Blue" has its name for a reason, but most royal colors in historic cultures were purple, red, and gold due to the expense of such fabrics, and so the choice of blue is very refreshing!

Thanks for sharing!!!

I am late to the party myself. Didn't got a lot of time last weeks to even respond. 
Thanks a lot! 

Verry observant from you I indeed did mix up a few cultures together. This is why a few people got slightly confused during the geuswho. 
In a way, my story plays in a differend world. So why would they have the same culture as we know it? So I am just trying to figure a bid how my planet Azibo works
with Nerhil her tasks. 
It's nice to learn that you like to learn more about Nerhil. 
As for her Fabric c: same as the architecture of their buildings. Because the story plays off on an entirely different world it isn't exactly the same as earth history. 
Yet, it's nice to learn you see my ideas as refreshing ^^ Because I do hesitate a lot with this kind of drastic changes from what people know to something new. 
Thank you <3

I love her headdress and the action poses, and her magic is really interesting! I enjoyed learning more about the significance of the different elements in the drawing, especially the symbols of the windows and of the plants. I hadn't thought about the Asian-inspired clothes of the guards, but now that I look closer I see the resemblance.

Thanks a lot <3 
Also thanks a lot for your interest to Nerhil her background story and take your time to read it all. 
As for the guards in the background and their clothing. I would not think about this in the first place by my self when I would saw this drawing at first. After all, the architecture I used doesn't look Asian at all. 
I still need to work a lot about Azibo their culture/clothes style and architecture. Atm the designs are all over the place because I still trying to figure out how it all works.

I love how you've done the fighting styles and her expression are wonderful! AH! So it's a woman and Falco's big sister . . . nice detail

Kitty-Craftsy In reply to dragondoodle [2019-12-01 14:00:36 +0000 UTC]

Thanks a lot for your sweet comment. 
Jup she is, this is a bid where Nerhil's own story is about. Her forbidden relation between Tirvay. 

Tirvay is like Falco also a halfbreed. And her people would go in a rampage if they knew she would have a relation with a half-blood. This is out of the question for a lot of Akanathians.

Aaw thanks a lot. I kinda had a bid the feeling that this one wasn't one of my best works ^^'

Thanks! I just wanted to show people that she actually isn't just a Queen who sits down on a throne. 
But actually knows how to protect herself.

I love Nerhil's character and design! I absolutely love her expressions here, especially the one in the top right corner, which shows she has a lighter side and sense of humour, despite her usual serious demenour! You also did a great job with her fighting moves too btw! You've improved so much on expressions, facial construction and anatomy overall! I'm also impressed with your thorough attention to details in your world building too! Fantastic work!

But thanks! I am trying to do  my best.

I want to say that you're getting MUCH better with expressions, anatomy, and various body types. I love her character a lot. You have amazing worldbuilding skills; it's clear that you put forth a lot of time, effort, and love into creating this world and its inhabitants. Excellent work done!

I love the expressions. They make Nerhil come off as a more serious person, but the one where she laughs shows that she has a playful side too.^w^
Good job on this entry!
