Drawing of two characters from Critical role. Both are naked, male, and holding each other in their arms. Left is Caleb, fair skin, red hair and beard, freckles on his face and shoulders, eyes closed. He has scars on his forearm. Right is Essek, dark elf (drow) with purple skin and short white curly hair, silvers earrings, and eyes half opened watching Caleb.

The Ninth Floor.

[ #CriticalRole | #CriticalRoleFanart | #shadowgast ]

A rendered digital illustration of Caleb Widogast and Essek Thelyss from Critical Role Campaign 2 kissing in Caleb's Nascent Nein-Sided Tower on the Ninth Floor, the floor of possibility. Essek is floating to be slightly taller than Caleb, and Caleb holds him up. Caleb wears his professor clothing and Essek has long hair, indicating a passage of time from the end of campaign 2. The background is a multicoloured galactic nebula with many bright stars, and it doesn't look like they're standing on anything.

To be happy, I would need this vibe + no more Macron. The little bat is a familiar for Essek btw! #shadowgast #criticalrolefanart #criticalrole #mightynein

Kinktober 2025 - 10 [Footjob - Essek x Caleb]

I think this is one of the Kinktober pieces I was most excited to draw. Ever since the jokes that Essek has perfect manicured feet, I needed to get freaky about it.

Cropped illustration of Essek and Caleb from Critical Role. Both men are naked, and Essek sits behind Caleb, caressing his chest whilst his legs hook around Caleb's waist, with his feet sat in his lap. Caleb has a face of overwhelming pleasure, and Essek looks across at him with a smile.

Essek waiting for Caleb to join him #shadowgast #criticalroleart

Essek Theyless from Critical Role in black and white lingerie. He has a black underbust corset with white lilies on it, black panties, and white stockings with black threads going through the top that get tied in bows. He's laying back on red bed sheets and there are candles floating around him.

Wizards celebrating their friends' love <3 #CriticalRoleFanart #CriticalRole #FjoresterWedding

A digital illustration of Caleb Widogast and Essek Thelyss from Critical Role. There are two drawings of them in the image, in both they are dressed in pink outfits for Fjord and Jester's wedding. On the left Essek is stood behind Caleb with his chin resting on Caleb's shoulder and his arms around Caleb's middle. They're both affectionately watching Fjord and Jester dance. On the right they're both holding glasses of wine and trying to kiss but smiling too much to actually manage it.

#MightyNein animated is almost here!!! I didn't feel like colouring this drawing before, but it felt right to finally do that for this occasion. Also I don't think a lot of people noticed that their heads form a 9 before, so I made it really obvious this time lol

#criticalrole #criticalrolefanart

A digitally coloured black ink drawing of the Mighty Nein, from Critical Role. The nine of them are laying down, their heads together in the shape of a nine. From the middle going outward to the left is Caleb, who has Caduceus head on his shoulder, and Essek's head on his belly. His hand rests on Essek's head. To his left is Veth, who's lying on her side, her body facing Caleb, her arm hooked in Caleb's. She's looking to her left, at Jester. Jester smiles back at Veth, and is hooking arms with Fjord. Fjord is fist bumping Beau, Beau grins at Fjord and holds Yasha's arm. Yasha is laughing with Kingsley, who's got his hand on her chest, palm up. Caduceus is to his left, and seems to be asleep, with a wide smile on his face. He leans against Essek, who looks up at Caleb, and clutches his hands to his chest.

The same as the previous image, but it is darkened a little and a stripe of light brightens each of their eyes, so that it forms the number nine.

Essek and Caleb at Jester and Fjord's wedding party, k-i-s-s-i-n-g

#CriticalRole #CriticalRoleFanArt #CriticalRoleSpoilers #shadowgast

digital fan art of Essek and Caleb from Critical Role, at Jester and Fjord's wedding, sitting on a bench and kissing.
Essek is a young-looking slender dark elf with light lavender skin and shoulder-length white hair, which is artfully curled and pinned back. Caleb is a light-skinned thin human in his early forties, with auburn chin-length wavy hair and a full beard.
they are both dressed in formal clothing, cream and light pink to match the colors Jester had picked for her wedding. Essek is wearing a silk shirt with bishop sleeves and a straight neckline that exposes his neck and a wide pearl choker; he also has slacks on, short enough to reveal his boots with metal toe-tips, as well as a coat made of thick matte fabric, with wide geometric shoulders and layered hanging sleeves. it is caught at the waist with a wide sash, the coat's two floral frog closures open. Caleb is dressed in form-fitting pants tucked into white boots, a leather strap around one of his thighs. he has a long-sleeved shirt on under a light pink sleeveless coat made of delicate floral brocade. there is a large white flower tucked behind his ear. both of them are wearing a bit of make-up: Essek has white lipstick on his bottom lip, and Caleb's eyes are accentuated with fiery red eyeshadow.
they are sitting on a bench outside, leaning into each other, Essek placing a kiss on the corner of Caleb's mouth. Essek's left hand is guiding Caleb's chin towards him with a delicate finger, while his right is resting in Caleb's left. there is a flowering branch above them, soft pink petals lying on the white cobbled stones beneath their feet. the ocean is visible behind them, the setting sun shining right behind the couple's heads, illuminating them in warm orange glow.
