"Many years later, when the opportunity presented itself, the Istaar again lead a liberation force into the Polkari homeland of Taheh. With the help of the Matordai, the liberation forces made easy work of the Kimku defenses, and the Kimku were forced to retreat back to the imperial capital of Eradil. Now, with Taheh free of all oppressors, the Polkari, proud and determined, struggle against great odds to create a society to call their own. This time, however, they'll accept the helping hand of the Istaar. And, eventually, they will create great cities, a thriving economy, and a powerful culture that reflects both the beauty of their savior's, the Istaar, and their personal will to never wear the bonds of slavery upon their wrists ever again."


Design concept for the lion-esque race, the Polkari, from my fantasy universe. Images are culturally heavily Japanese based. Some Korean conceptual ideas thrown in there as well. All original designs.

Hope you enjoy.
