The pilot’s deck. Lukaud in their suyen form along with Vangeren, second in command.
The above scene is during the Obmunjalae’s periodic visit to an island of suyens. Lukaud just dropped off supplies and they’re taking off, but the the two noticed a suyen making an escape off the island towards the vessel. Lukaud is subtly pushing the throttle back. For now, Vangeren is using the model for Miryin from Shehsai the Purifier.

I’ve recently revisited the written story of Yezukh’ay, and that inspired me to stage some scenes from the story and make some other various updates to the vessel.
This is an update to an earlier scene, with the current design for the suyen characters and some changes to the design of the vessel “Obmunjalae” that the characters are riding on. Yezukh’ay, the suyen making the jump in the middle, escaped their impoverished island by leaping into the Voidplane with some makeshift wing paddles and swimming over to the Obmunjalae as it was departing. When they grew up, they got into void leaping as a sporting activity. There are a number of onlookers: Bottom: Lukaud of the Lurin shapeshifters. The owner of the Obmunjalae vessel and Yezukh’ay’s caretaker. Right: Tisi of… an unnamed aquatic race of plane natives. An oddity, as very few significant bodies of water exist on the Voidplane. Far right: Kemadrel of the tanteru, and one of the three Council Lords of Sha Repart. Above: Tatyakori of the dragons, and another member of the Council Lords of Sha Repart. Left: The suyen Ontakh’in, the chonkier of the siblings that are employed as attendants of Tatyakori. Standing on Tatyakori’s head: The suyen Ibril, Ontakh’in’s sibling.
It became quite apparent that introducing the robolds to Crazy Sweet Delights Robotreats was a terrible mistake. A parody of a poster for the classic boomer shooter (I guess that’s what they call them now) Doom that I had actually owned at one point. And the obligatory note on the title: kobolds say “yip yap”, robots say “beep boop”, therefore robolds say “yeep yoop”.
The four Creative Spark Dragons with some of their robold minio..I mean helpers, having some birthday cake and drinks. Someone is also sneakily going for a slice, but seeing this is being hosted at the Red Triplets’ Three Leaf Eatery, Bayzil’s probably just doing it to mess with the robold.
One aspect of the suyen life is that they are communal sleepers. So, here’s a non-canonical example of suyens having a nap while the Creative Spark Dragons maintain vigil. Oh yeah, and now there’s finally a legit dragon CSD. The idea of a scene of them holding the suyens in their arms inspired me to finally build out the model. And they got a fancy crown to boot. I decided to add in the ‘Shadow Automaton’ to the scene, who will now serve as the dragon’s attendant.
There is a shrine located in the Unliving Place hidden within the holy mountain of Elehura, built to commemorate the deeds of Sheshai the Purifier. The individual in the picture is not Sheshai herself, but a sort of ‘spiritual echo’ to represent the hero in a place of honor.
This scene is based on the original drawing of the character that would eventually become Sheshai:
Crinos Kylal is the daughter of the current leader of the Seven-Star Nation, Tessalus Kylal. Though she spent most of her young life hidden from public view (usually stuck in a book in the library), she has recently taken up a more public role, showing great potential for leadership during stressful political events that were beginning to overwhelm her mother.
It’s been a bit of time since an Agwilika Rhe character update. Here was the previous version of Crinos’s face:
