anyway this is all i got for today have the angry wet cat of a person that is my idea of post-canon xue yang
a long-haired youth glares at something off screen. he grips his left shoulder, and his eyes are angry and tired. his hair hangs long and unkempt. a young man with long, unkempt hair. he is missing his left arm, though the stump is covered by a kind of cape. his right hand rests on the hilt of jiangzai, though i haven't drawn that yet, so sorry!

Cael is a feminine individual with long dark brown hair in a braid, brown skin, Indigenous facial tattoos on the chin, and feathered earrings. They are wearing green and brown Ranger armor, and carry a curved sword with a red jewel that resembles an eye. The text reads "Who's next?" in reference to a moment from the podcast. A self-portrait by tenetke of themself as a tiefling. A feminine individual with shoulder-length wavy red hair, pointed ears, curved black ram horns, red eyes, black painted lips, and sharp teeth with blood dripping from the corner of the mouth.
