Poll Vote Winner: Orelyn, the Cute Dark Elf Abjurer, and Korrr the Giantborn Barbarian – Preview (Patreon)

So, in this month’s “YOU Choose, I Draw!” poll you voted for “A steamy scene with Orelyn the cute dark elf wizard and Korrr the half-giant barbarian”, so here they are!

Orelyn is studying magic in a cave in the Sunken World but Korrr has different plans, providing a welcome distraction from transcribing ancient deep dwarven spells in elvish.

About the characters:

Orelyn is a dark elf archaeologist, searching for ancient civilizations in the caves and deep places of her world. She's a very shy introvert that specializes in abjuration magic. She spent most of her life shunned and alone, far away from her hedonistic people. Yet, one day she made a groundbreaking discovery that might very well have a huge impact on her world and now she's on a quest to discover the whole truth and tell everyone who needs and wants to hear about it.

Korrr is a half-dark elf, half-giant barbarian who has been traveling the deepest caves and caverns for decades. Cunning yet straightforward, he has learned to anticipate and avoid the myriad dangers of the Sunken World. Feared by the hedonistic and reclusive dark elves for his freakish physique and perceived lack of culture, and shunned by his giant kin for his relatively diminutive physique, he had to learn to survive all by himself from a young age.

Hidden in shadows, Korrr watched Orelyn as she saved two deep dwarven explorers from amorphous oozes that seeped from the gates of Uldothura, a long-abandoned deep dwarven temple. Overcoming his mistrustfulness, he approached Orelyn who was more curious than intimidated. Together, they teamed up to seal the ancient temple again and have been traveling together ever since.

About the Theomachy setting:

In this setting, Theomachy, vengeful gods fight each other for the ultimate control of the world, while the mortals of Naam struggle for power on a dying world. Divine magic is mostly evil, and clerics and paladins are either devout followers of the warring gods or theomachists. Theomachists fight against the gods, stealing their magic and using it against them.

In Theomachy, dark elves are refugees who upon being cursed by the gods, sought refuge in the Sunken World underground to escape their terrible wrath. These dark elves are not inherently evil. They are mostly apathetic and sometimes hedonistic recluses who seek to shut the rest of the world out. Very few leave the relative safety of the Sunken World for the terrible Overworld where the gods fight.

I’ll upload the full illustration soon!
