The Armorican Peninsula is a strange and wondrous place, a mist-shrouded land full of magic and mystery, where the mortal realm of Bedouar and the timeless vastness of Faerie coexist side by side, the great veil ripped apart by uncontrollable magic, causing time and space to collapse into disarray. Unearthly fog rolls in, cutting off travelers from where they came and pure magical chaos rolls across the region in great storms. Fortune can be found in the borders of Faerie to the brave and the lucky, death for the foolish.
The treacherous coast of the region, the Ar Mor Bras, is no stranger to these twists of fate, home to the lost city of Ys-Beneath-the-Waves and its accursed princess, Ahes Dahut. Throughout the ages, some individuals find themselves caught in the whirlpool of magic surrounding this mystical site, and are drawn in by the phantom bells of the sunken city and the enchanting, enticing song of those trapped by its curse....
Back in 2019, I launched a special series for Mermay, an art project to develop a small, but important part of the lore of Alvez, the world of Kroashent. The Marie-Morgane of Ys-Beneath-the-Waves are one of several merfolk races of the world. For this project, I decided to "adapt" each of the Dungeons and Dragons Character Classes into a character as they may appear in Alvez, then transform these characters into mermaids with art and short stories! Since then, I've been working hard on developing the world and the characters who live, there, even writing an ongoing novella, Kroashent: Bal des Loups, which you can read the first 3 chapters right now, for free! A lot has changed as I worked and some of the art and stories seemed like they could use an update!
Next up is René(e), an idealistic knight from a minor family with dreams of love and adventure. Compared to the Rozenn the Druid and Ailinor the Cleric, René's design had much less changes, but did have some cleanup and general streamlining. I'll admit, I went back and forth on this a lot. René's story takes place roughly 1000 years after the Fall of Ker-Ys, almost contemporaneous with the the story of Kroashent. René's armor is something that would still be in regular use for the region. I debated giving it a completely new design to line up with the more "modern" uniforms of the Windguard (Closer to what Enora wears), but decided for a footsoldier like René, the chain and tabard would still be commonly used.
I'm also proud to point out, this is the first time ever I've made/used a custom brush set, for the Ermine field on René's tabard! Still needs some fine tuning, but a useful tool!
