Lots of talk of weddings recently in my circles. So I thought I’d draw my favourite RP couple – Warden’s Vigilance and Auspicious Victory. I’ve drawn thembothbefore, and I will admit – their actual wedding I think took place with at least one of them in war form (for reasons) – but I’m a bit of a sucker for dressing characters up! Warden especially, because he’s usually walking around in full plate moonsilver, but is one of the few characters in the story who is not natively Northern. I think a wedding would be the perfect time to sneek in some of that Southern style! It’s something I need to try and figure out with the design of his armour – as well as his colour schemes – for the future.
I’ve
never played Exalted before, but I hope I get to soon. Working on
character design/concepts is one of my favorite things to do ^_^

Five Corners Menagerie Chibi
Sometimes, when Five is sad, her Tiger Dad boops her paw print pattern with one of his big paws and reminds her she is a fierce tiger and that sorrow should fear her.
Cynis Belar Jirou, the youngest grandchild of the Matriarch Cynis Belar, had always perplexed their peers and tutors alike. Their mind was set on grand designs, and even before their Second Breath as Air Aspect they were interested in mysteries of Mela’s brood, with occult matters, than they were with down to earth ways of the Dynasty. Belar encouraged this, figuring the child would make a great sorcerer, and that they’d be stashed away in an ivory tower to be called on whenever sorcerous power was needed.
The person that returned from Heptagram wasn’t going to accept that.
Jirou gained power of sorcery, respect of the spirits of air they so admired, and a throne made of clouds, while losing feeling in their legs – a price of power, freely given. Their Cirrus Skiff made for an excellent mobility aid, which was the only reason House Cynis didn’t destroy the Heptagram’s reputation for damaging their scion so, but the fact that their previously introverted Jirou became a peerless socialite was a new development. They cited the aid of their tutor and friends in Heptagram in coming out of their shell, and they’re making waves in the high society of the Realm, turning their sorcery and mystique into a social weapon rather than a hindrance.
Their manner is still aloof, and their artifact fan – a present from their grandmother – aids in this. The Shrouded Peak is both a relic guarding propriety and emotional distance, and a potent artifact weapon, one that the enemies of House Cynis never anticipate – in no small way thanks to it being rarely seen, Jirou being the first Cynis in more than a century to match it’s temperament.
