a Coral Mermaid watching over the reef. there's some debate about whether these actually count as mermaids, but other mermaids obviously think they do so everyone else's opinions don't really matter. more lore here: www.tumblr.com/theveryworst...

the deceptively named Cradle Kelp is actually a type of mermaid that makes their home in kelp forests. you can read more about them here: www.tumblr.com/theveryworst...

a basket star divingbelle getting ready to go for a dip. while some hold onto their human skins while swimming, the sturdier types hide them in burrows or caves when they hang out in the water doing their water business (a very cool and not nightmare level spooky thing for divers to stumble onto).

divingbelles are mermaids in the selkie family who use humanoid skins to house aquatic forms instead of the other way around. softer divingbelles hold onto their skins like snail shells while swimming, opening gaps to unfurl from under water and closing them when they want to hide or walk around.

a few fish I drew back in may. these versatile little friends are perfect starter fish for those interested in fleshwater or faultwater tanks.

the last of the very little non work art i did in january. my boy Milonne in his human cosplay waiting for clients to show up. he's not great at holding that form for long periods of time but as long as he's hanging out in/near goth clubs and doesn't blink a bunch he can pass pretty easily.

more little guys for that creature escorting/research thing i started a while ago. these are early or "safe" area critters. loose typings for these babies are, starting at the upper left: branch type, hive type, net type (siren type?), bone type, seed type, beyond type, and endless type.

centaurs :) decided to revisit these super old centaur designs. their developing lore is that they probably evolved from mammalian mermaids or vice versa? no one is quite sure. maybe they're just in a constant cycle of jumping in and out of the water and getting weirder each time.

beautiful and gentle wild turkeys i met in a forest during a dream. they were velvety soft, they kind of drifted along the ground like jellyfish, and they were very aware of the Dangers.

a couple of besties ready for a night out on the town. some people get accidentally turned into vampires at age 45 and panic. others quit their shitty jobs, make friends with a bat, and enter their bimbo era. if/when your time comes, choose wisely.

in places where the soil is a bit too saturated with magic, randrakes start to show up in the crops. goblins see them as the land trying its best to “digest” that magic before it rots and goes toxic. read more about veggie races here: theveryworstthing.tumblr.com/post/761169385

guardian spirits from 3 villages. though they can be perceived in many ways when they wish, their physical forms are strongest when incense is lit at their shrines. the smoke also carries their voices so that they can speak with their villagers directly.
