Sennika Kingsley was turned very young during the fall of Gilneas, and at this point has spent almost half her life cursed. She considers herself an outcast from Gilneas due to family history and embracing some of the darker, more violent aspects of being Worgen cursed. Being a warlock doesn’t help.

It's headcold season and I hate it so time for some non-intensive fun art. I'm way too out of it to deal with the armor versions right now so we get pajama party! (thank you @buttart.bsky.social for the prompt) #OCSLUMBERPARTY #warcraftart #worldofwarcraft #troll #darkspear #amani #worgen

This isn't canon, but I will accept any version where this is the spirit of the end result because this game series ruined me 30 years ago.

More painting practice, with my shaman from after 12.1. With her scars gone she looks like the one least damaged from all the in-game events but she's probably the most traumatized one of all the Old Guard. #warcraft #art #warcraftart #troll #warcrafttroll #darkspear

My last entry for #stvbb2026 contains 90% more crime. I'm so glad I took the chance to participate in this event. I've been feeling very isolated from other art spaces and I was leery of trying to reach out again, so thank you everyone who runs #stvbbb for being so welcoming. #warcraft #art

My kelpie druid continues to not learn her lesson and steals a drink. The end result is a dance floor extravaganza where several other party goers join in the madness. Week 2 of #stvbb where I had way too much fun doing expressions. #warcraft #wow #warcraftart #kultiran #elf #draenei #stvbb2026

page one of a comic where a kul tiran druid steals a necromancer darkfallen's drink. It tastes disgusting.

Questioning the drink she has stolen, the consequences come calling in the form of a psychodelic party in travel form singing spongebob squarepants' theme song while falling off a chair and people hang from her antlers. the necromancer is perplexed as others ask for whatever the druid had.

Week one for #stvbb featuring @jaxmaw.bsky.social and my Kul Tiran Druid(Kelpie) who does not understand the nuances of where the line for 'seafood' and 'creature not meant to be eaten but lives in the sea' is. #warcraft #stvbb26 #kultiran #naga #worldofwarcraft #warcraftart

After many years of watching the art bashes in #stvbb I decided to try it out since this is its last year. I had such a hard time deciding which character to bring, but then I remember this Kul Titan Kelpie, and realized she’s perfect for beach shenanigans. #stvbb26 #warcraft #wow #kultiran

Had to redo the shaman some because this is set AFTER whatever happens in 12.1 and STUFF happens to her. There is a reason her scars are gone. Also Toluca (Zandalari Monk) gets a proper introduction to the family! #warcraft #warcrafttroll #warcraftart #troll #zandalari #worldofwarcraft

Finished up this set after some last minute changes. Originally the worgen was in human form but then I remembered pictures of people holding their gigantic fluffy dogs like they were puppies and I couldn't NOT do that. #warcraft #wow #warcraftart #troll #amani #worgen #gnome #worldofwarcraft

I really like the crazy old couple vibe these two have acquired as they've aged (they're in their 50's or equivalent now in-game). They're also adorable dorks when they're not stabbing people. #warcraft #wowart #warcraftart #troll #warcrafttroll #nightelf #midnight

Welp, that didn't take long. New amani boy has already found his niche, and fits surprisingly well with the worgen and paladin. Lots to fix still but I felt like sharing this cat face. I feel a lot of us cat owners can relate to this face. #warcraft #wip #wowart #warcraftart

My poor pally in Silvermoon. For context, he's technically an ex-death knight Darkspear that died (again) and was raised by the Light as an undead paladin. Everyone just assumes he's a Zandalari due to the glowing eyes and paladin status. No real spoilers here. #wow #warcraft #midnight

a short comic of a troll and a blood elf in the midnight expansion of wow. The first panel, the blood elf says "you aren't like us, Zandalari, even if you wield the light."
