An alternate universe of Vene. For those who don't know, a few years ago, I turned Vene into an Eastern dragon. The general idea behind this version of Vene is simple. The realization I have come to understand about myself after drawing this is FAR more complex.

The general idea is... What if I had kept Vene a Western dragon instead of making them an Eastern dragon, and continued to evolve them as I have since 2015?

We might have had something like this.

A towering, 8 foot (2.4m) wall of draconic muscle, intense stamina, attunement with the celestial wonders of the night sky, and magic, both stellar and natural. This druidic version of Vene holds much power within themselves. Most of it courses through their body, giving their wings an Aurora Borealis appearance. In offense, this Venerabela conjures up spheres of stellar energy. Pure, superheated hydrogen gas whose properties would only be possible within the outer photosphere of stars. This offensive ability is also utilized within his breath ability.

On the other side of the coin, their command over nature also allows for healing and regrowth. A wildfire, deforestation, any natural or unnatural event which would destroy the nature he is sworn to protect, a wave of his hand would allow for the soil to become fertile once more, the lands to be cleansed, and foliage to begin regrowth and healing. This magic also heals the wounds of others.

In defense, the armor on Vene's chest, muzzle, forehead, shoulders, hands, forearms, underbelly, tail, shins, and feet allow for protection, but also close-combat defense. The blades on his arms are able to stave off and absorb sword attacks for a time, but they are not impenetrable. Once these natural blades are chopped off, they take time to regrow.

This version of Vene is kind of a testament to how I have grown over the years. A lot of the looks on this form are influenced by important people in my life. It's strange to think that I went from a gray, unremarkable dragon to where I am now, with my look vibrant and pleasing to the eye. At least to my eye. There is a lot more to this that is difficult to go in depth with, but I still wanted to share this while I could.
