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!
Adele is Fleur's partner-in-crime (literally) and then partner in other things later on. She was always intended as the other side of the coin to Fleur, a quick thinking, flashy sorceress counter to her friends "blend into the background" approach. In Alvez, the world of Kroashent, Adele is a Boermerzh, a human who can interact with faerie magic, but not a trained Similherez (Mage). She's very much an instinctive, unrefined caster, which seemed like the closest to a D&D Sorcerer. Personality-wise, Adele is the more adventurous of the pair, and acts as a sort of big-sister guardian to Fleur. When Fleur gets into trouble when she steals from the wrong target, Adele steps up to help her on the dangerous task she is assigned without hestitation. Unfortunately, Adele's chapter was never published back in 2019, but someday I hope to share her story!
