Ahnurth Sketchpage: Drifters and Darem

Amber-Aria

This commission was such a surprise, i had to ask JulesLetters if he really meant to ask me for it. He essentially sponsored 3 hours of my own time for me to draw whatever I felt like drawing and sharing with my followers. It's delightful to have a chance to do something for myself and get paid for it, so I made sure to make the best of it!


On the left are some doodles of my oldest species of dragon: the Drifter. These dragons make their nests in hollowed-out icebergs, and move gracefully both in and out of water with their serpentine bodies and webbed forelimbs. Young Drifters carry a LOT of baby fat when they're young, to help insulate them from the cold environment and allow them to survive comfortably for longer periods of time between hunts until they're strong enough to hunt for themselves. The adult males are easy to distinguish from the females by their thick horn, built for breaking through ice to create air pockets. Drifter fishing holes are often distinguishable by a sharp upright jet of frozen water from the dragon's frigid exhale upon breaching.

On the right is an old character that some may recognize as one of my most powerful Ounten characters, Darem. As the sole, sickly son of a powerful and influential patriarch, Darem's unusual birth was said to be a bad omen. While he grew stronger and fought to prove those predictions wrong, a catastrophe befell not only his clan, but all of those who lived in the Snowpeak mountain range. A terrifying plague swept through the tunnels, decimating populations of hundreds down to merely dozens. In the wake of such a tragedy, Darem made it his life's mission to unite the shattered clans of Snowpeak at any cost, even if it meant betraying Ounten tradition and using elementa to push his body beyond its natural limits.
