The powerful but slow moving and dim witted guardian. One of the great dragons overlooking the world he is the master of the element of Earth. Also he is so huge that his scales are literal mountains. He is so big that at one point two people were swimming in a small lake for a while before realizing they were actually swimming in the liquid on the surface of his eyeball.

This image was made a million years ago- its actually drawn on paper, photographed, and then touched up on PC, lol. I was still in highschool when I drew this ol thing! The greater dragons were originally made for an RPG I made back in the day that is long gone. Their lore was recycled in a novel I spent 11 years writing and to this day is still not properly edited, and probably never will be, rofl.
In this lore; all dragons on their world came from Tiamat who herself arrived in a moon-sized egg. Skjaldborg of Earth, Setja of Water, Kvisa of Wind, and Astir of Fire are the children of Tiamat. She grew sad when she realized her children were mortal and would one day die, so Tiamat broke her own immortality into four fragments to gift her children; dying so that they could live forever in her place. Those four great dragons became the precursors of every other dragon on the entire planet. Astir is the only female, so you know she was quite... busy. Skjaldborg is so immensely huge that he can lift and carry an entire continent on his back to basically re-arrange the entire surface of the planet if he wanted.

Haha, you always have a lot of such fun lore. ^^ And I would actually enjoy seeing some artwork of Astir, lol. If you have one and I missed it, then sorry. And by the way, now I can see how fun comments actually are to get after I posted something of my own. I hope that me just writing these on your old drawing like that can be nice too, since I really like this stuff I see on your profile and interacting with it (and you as a result) is very pleasant. Well... I'll just read more things of yours like these stories related to Wick.
Haha, yea, they are all ancient drawings so they are just floating around in the scraps folder, since they aren't tied to any story material that is actually still in my gallery. Though they are just mugshots basically- you can tell Astir is the female because my own dragon designs use Flame Crests and Fire Glands as obvious sexual dimorphism in draconids. See the bulges just behind her jaws? Those are the fire glands, that is where her elemental breath comes from. Males have a single large storage chamber on the top of their throat instead that isn't visible when dormant, with a cross shaped patch of translucent skin over it, so when it inflates you can see the elemental energy forming inside of it before they breathe out.
Yes, comments are very important to content creators- both so they know what people like to be able to make more of it, and to just know their work is acknowledged. Doesn't matter if it is drawings, writing, music, sculpting, etc- art is meant to be observed. If no one looks at it, then it might as well not exist in the first place. The creator doesn't need it- they already have it in their head before it is made physical.
Reading Wick content eh? That is Moth's homeworld! Those oldest two entries, ooph, might as well just skip those, they were like, half-baked ideas that realistically shouldn't have been made into a full story in the first place. Make Her Squeal is pretty cute and has nice characters tho, and Break Out In Hives is interesting and currently the only story in that world popular enough to get into the Elite Collection. Also it is the only insect TF to get into the Elite Collection, granted it doesn't have a lot of competition either. I have only done like, 4ish bug TFs total, lol. Unless you count the half-bugs in the RHEI series.
Oh yea, and if you are looking for an interesting read- normally I don't recommend it or point it out to other people but toward the very bottom of my gallery folders is one called Slave 2 Love; it has only 2 entries. They are however full stories- really, really old stories, but since they are actual stories I would still rank them higher than my average stuff. They have erotica in them too, but its more like a story with erotica in it, opposed to an erotica that has story in it.
Actually, my Beautiful Monsters series has a real cool story too buuut, it IS erotica and a kinda terrible balance. I was trying to balance the two and ultimately ended up with a series of stories that had too much story to be good erotica and too much erotica to be a good story. The storyline is good, but to put it all together you'd need to read 20 short stories, which individually have luke warm stories, lol. I have plans to actually remake the entire thing as a single novella and toss the erotica half in the garbage entirely but who knows when I will get the time to actually do that >.>
