Okay, so, I could literally sing your praises for days on your art. Who couldn't? But I ESPECIALLY love and adore the skin shading you've done on this lovely lady. It's absolutely stunning and I can't stop looking at it. And the simple yet elegant background is a great setting. Your vines? Gorgeous. Super duper lovely piece.

She's lovely! Her hair is magnificent and those golden eyes are very striking. Is this a whole book you're writing to go with the pictures (or rather, are the pictures illustrations for a book you're writing)?

I think you're very wise not to reveal too many of your ideas. Concepts and characters are so easily stolen and it'd be nigh on impossible to prove they were yours. Plus it just gives you peace of mind. Good luck with getting it published. It's good to be ambitious! Meanwhile, I look forward to seeing more of your illustrations. Your characters are beautiful!

Aw thank you I like the idea of elves being more towards the 'bad' side, feels like they are often portrayed as noble but arrogant, I think that's why I never really liked using elves myself in my own worlds, hehe Though these are faes and not elves, they are usually described as... well, fairies Creatures of peace and good will, which is pretty much the opposite of what I wanted my faes to be like I suppose unless you are a huge fan of elves, it's easy to think of the faes as the bad guys anyway, since they warred with the humans (and most of us are human )
Hm, I haven't given it much thought tbh, maybe they were and as a result they just adapted to a more cruel, savage mindset. They are a very, very old race though, so old that they preceed the High Council, so surely they've had to endure some hard times and war, perhaps the oppression of another superior race now gone extinct
You are so kind, thank you

Hehe no worries, it was directed at me There may have been human/fae mixes earlier on, but in that case they were rare and would probably have died quite early in their life, as they wouldn't be accepted by either kind and thus not prioritized for food, healthcare, ect. The faes may be savage but they aren't really about raping and conquering as the Shakra, they are more about, erm, 'defending at all cost' But any mix with a Shakra demon would have been raised in the Shadow-Realm, as the demons would bring the captured females with them as they leave, and as evident with Tezarya's childhood the hybrid offspring is given the lowliest tasks and the lowest status, only equal to pleasure slaves (which again usually means they die quite early). Not to mention if a fae female was captured and brought to the Shadow-Realm, she'd probably die very quickly due to the shadows
While it's not a secret to the Freerunners that the Dwellers have fae blood in them, few other races of demons ever see or hear of the dokh-shakras, due to their low status and all that I also had a headcanon that since they are all humanoids but not that closely related, they'd have issue even producing offspring (that's one of the reasons someone like Nylissa is so rare), resulting in quite high rate of miscarriages and stillborns :/ Not sure if the high mortality rate would also affect dogs and wolves in the wild, I haven't really looked into how easy/hard it is for them to mix, but I do know that the offspring isn't really suitable to keep as pets

Hehe indeed, but I think it's realistic in the setting where the guys are at war Indeed, the faes are very protective of their land. I imagine that during their golden age, they had vast forest cities, but as their numbers dwindled they couldn't protect them all, and after the Shakra invasion they are infested with the shadows and haunted by Them, like a twisted nightmare of what they once were
Aw thank you I like building worlds
Hm well it's not for certain that the Shakra would have realized that the faes are sensitive to the shadows. They always bring female captives back with them, I imagine because they are 'exotic', you know like raising a lion cub or a rare snake. So assuming they didn't know, it would be more about obtaining something rare, a prize, not about cruelty or experimenting. But if they did know, some of them would def bring captives just to see who made it the longest :/
Aw
IRL I'm not sure In TPoK dogs are domesticated but during the invasion those who would become the Freerunners just brought their pets with them into the wild, and thus they met wolves. Indeed they are supposedly hard to control and def half-wild :/
