Jewelry of the Steppe; a collection of Xaela hcs (free to use)

an image of some sketched scaled hands and jewelry, some silver some bronze, with text saying "Jewelry of the Steppe. Au ra of the Steppe receive two sets of jewelry from their tribe. One craftedd of bronze during childhood, to form habit and familiarity. The second in silver, gifted upon reaching adulthood and taking their place in the tribe. From there, the set expands over a lifetime, for achievement, growth and style."

second slide, this one with various sketched heads, focus on their horns and the embelishments in and on them. "Horn piercings. Horn adornment is especially favored for its innumerable unique fashions. These piercings serve as much therapeutic (with an asterisk) and spiritual significance as they might aesthetic. (asterisk addition: a stud in the right place can relieve pressures and tensions in the head). How one is pierced can effect horn growth, shape and hearing quality, so is best ddone by a trained artist, accounting for each individuals' needs and horn type."

third slide, with outlines and impressions of various stones and raw metals. "Crafting Materials. The silver represents the light of Nhaama's realm, of moon and star, highlighted against richly dark Xaela scales like Her dusk skies. The first set of adult jewelry is inlaid with a material chosen by an elder, master or caregiver to represent and aid the receiver. Examples: amber to wish for preservation and longevity, agate for protection and healing, bone for resilience, ect."

forth slide, with sketches of scaled faces carrying studs and rings. "Additional. Most, if not all of these adornments hold cultural meaning, such as the facial piercing of the Qestir. Beneath their masks the Qestir practice a variety of face, neck and tongue piercings. In purifying metals and protective stones, these inlays defend tongues and throats from the lies the Qestir denounce, lending a weight and chill reminder of their convictions. Chances are-if you see silver on a Xaela of the Steppe-ther is history in even the smallest ring."

AST: holding so much Light in the First left a mark, since then she is now able to control aether like she had trained for that during years. But she is not too keen on the cards, she much prefer to use time-base abilities to support her party.

SAM: Her first proper fighting mentor was a former member of the Sekiseigumi, back in her late teens when she toured Othard as a merchant caravan's guard.

GNB: Janine is more of a DEX fighter than STR, she's fast & nimble. A claymore or a greataxe would slow her down, and the sword and board are too defense-oriented for her. Plus ever since her early Ul'dah days she and Thancred have a friendly rivalry, being GNB is an extra perk.

Extremely disappointing, and I recommend anyone who is interested in this game to read the article. And I've also seen some Warrior Cats fans trying to defend the use of AI in this game as well, just fuck no. Using AI trained on artists instead of ACTUAL artists is insanely scummy.

I think we're done! I tried to give it some Bastion-like colors, but it was not easy with how dark the fanfest video was at first I did not plan on putting toggles, but I got carried away 😅

ok that's nice, but what if we added a lot of fur? (current colors are placeholders btw)

Fornax 🔥 «The Battleforged» @verysmallcyborg.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

10+ hours of fafo later, i've finished the mashup with the dullahan (for BST purposes) to (mostly) resemble lily knight au fornax ‼️despite having to exclude a few things, this was still super fun to work on ehehe

Dullahan enemy mashed up with longerrpigs' lily knight outfit and gloves with metal claws, as well as the weapon being replaced with the phantom guillotine umbrae, resembling the knight version of Fornax. It has no head however, and orange lilies in place of where the neck sits, and is colorsetted with dark greens and browns.

The knight version of Fornax, for comparison sake.
