part two of reference here: https://www.weasyl.com/submission/686171/elira-ref-part-two

meet my oldest OC ever, I first drew her when I was like 11 or something
She was originally a red eyrie on neopets. Unfortunately, at the time I didn't know what Mary Sues were, I was a really obnoxious weeaboo, and I was also a little kid who had no idea how to actually write stories. I think you can imagine how much of a catastrophe this character was.

I recently redesigned her completely. Her personality isn't fully fleshed out but I tried to mention a little bit of whatever I had figured out. I will add more poses/views in another image.

Some other notes on this character (please note this is subject to change)

• her friends call her "living matchbox" because she can start small fires with her magic
• she tends to worry a lot and she is also a bit paranoid
• she loves flying - for her flying is like an art form, she likes to try flying in many different weather conditions and practice different techniques/styles of flight
• her occupation is that of a hunter - she's supposed to bring in food for her clan, such as berries/fish/whatever, but she's not really that good at it because she doesn't like practicing for it
• her father is a master of fire magic and he always sort of expected her to follow in his footsteps, but out of insecurity and fear that she could never be as good as he is, she never bothers to study it very well; she has a pretty strong fear of failing
• although she is energetic, she is actually a big procrastinator - she avoids doing things partly because she's always afraid she's going to mess up; the only thing she doesn't procrastinate on is flying because she knows she's already reasonably good at it
• she can be kind of pushy about her opinions and this tends to annoy other people; it's really hard to get her to think or do something she doesn't want to
• she is not interested in any kind of sexual relationship although she is sometimes interested romantically in others
• her cousin and friend is this gryph: fav.me/d7jwls0
• she has a brother named Liafin (will make a ref for him too at some point)

Sorry if that's a bit tmi I'm terrible at talking about my OCs haha...Feel free to ask questions about her if you want, I'm happy to answer!!
