Lineart of a character from my graphic novel universe.

This is Zheeva, a lioness-like member of an alien race based off manticores, known for their broad, muscular bodies, poisonous quills and natural affinity for blood-based Hue magic. Zheeva is a member of the Order of Neo-Ritta, an organization of elite alien warriors charged with high-profile functions within the World Lotus, including both protecting the leader, the Grand Pedicel, in addition to being part of a system that keeps the Pedicel's incredible powers in check. Zheeva and her master Zeghori are ex-assassins and huntresses who excel at tracking down and eliminating priority targets, as well as search and rescue, and extracting individuals deemed important to the World Lotus like politicians, ambassadors, and other figures. Their Hue is naturally tuned to the workings of blood magic, which can influence the blood flow of allies to run faster and increase their strength, as well as heal grievous wounds. Blood magic can also allow the sanguine fluids to be warped into blades to impale or be thrown at enemies, or rupture from their bodies and be used against adjacent foes. They can also pick out individuals from a crowd of people, given they have a sample of the target's blood. Zheeva and her master are already in peak physical condition and can sprint quickly, possess powerful poison in their bodies and can hit like trucks with their powerful fists, making them a threat even without the influence of blood magic.
