New outfit for my cleric air genasi Efimii! His pilgrimage has not been going too great! 😬

Two parallel pictures of a purple skinned air genasi with white flowing hair.
On the left he is standing in his level 3 outfit - golden white robes with symbolic sun jewelry. His eyes are solid blue, while the iris is glowing like a sun.
On the right he is standing in his level 5 outfit - his hair now longer, the robes now a dark blue hue with more moon imagery. His left eye is not blue anymore, instead it is now blackened, with black scarring spanning over his cheekbone and ear (he is cursed).

I am really excited for campaign 4 right now, so naturally I felt nostalgic and ended up drawing this guy again... Essie... 😭

"He was once a ruler of wisdom, cunning and strength. Yet beneath it all lies cruelty, madness, and a chilling indifference: not the work of the Cards, but the unyielding essence of his nature."

Welp, I've become obsessed with Sultan's Game 😔 #sultansgame #苏丹的游戏

The Sultan from the game "Sultan's Game" is lying in a pool of crimson. The view is from above, as he looks up towards the viewer with a content expression, his eyes not visible. Several golden cards fly through the air.

Because of the news of the Mighty Nein animated show I am feeling a little nostalgic, so here some older fanart I made when campaign 2 was still going... Essek is and will forever stay my favourite boye 💜 #criticalrolefanart #essekthelyss

New Dnd character after so long:
Efimii - air genasi cleric of Peace (ft. enchanted broom)!
For some reason my genasis are always barefoot haha

A purple skinned air genasi with wispy, white hair. He wears golden white robes and holds an elaborate enchanted broom.

Older piece of my beloved Fire Genasi monk - Cigarette. Your local troublemaker gal running barefoot on rooftops with her kestrel Piccolo, who has definitely never set buildings on fire to sow discord on the order of her definitely-not-a-cult-monastery 🫶 #dndart #dndcharacter
