hi! so I’ve promised myself i’d share at least one piece of art in the AO forums before full release. in case you couldnt tell im also a very bad procrastinator 
this is Winter Water, an “artificial” human who works as both a healer and a navigator. he’s also been my main file ever since WoM public tests!
gross and disgusting lore
Winter is artificial in the sense that he was not created by natural means. He was created using a long-forgotten relic blessed by Phanes (with life magic affinities). This relic also currently sort of acts as Winter’s heart.
Considering how relics work in lore, the relic could only summon life, not control it, so whoever created Winter kind of just left him where he was, and he was sealed in a magical egg-shaped bubble at the bottom of some lake in the Dark Sea.
He was found in the Far Reaches by a lost seafarer named Adam Fallenfire, and Winter managed to safely guide them back to the War Seas. Ever since, he’s been travelling alongside them as their right-hand man.
this is where i stop rambling. merry christmas everyone!!

the glow-down is insane
the amount of artistic choices you’re able to add to something as unfortunate as a roblox character’s limited accessory choices is impressive good job.
did you come up with the character design first, and tried to emulate it in-game? Or did you start with the character file, and chose to add more detail in your drawing?
Hang on I gotta re-friend you on Roblox, then we gotta play FR together once it’s out of course
LMAO ikr, and tysm again!!! what makes this worse is that this is with the extra vanity slots pass too…
But yeah, I actually made Winter first! much later on I drew his character design with more detail to fit with his occupation more and to connect him to Phanes a bit
Luckily with Full release, there will be more hair and facial hair styles that’s added to the game, and also more choice of clothes as well
