commissioned by Tess R.
A female wizard with feral, sharp-toothed features and golden talons — noble pomp on the outside, primal predator underneath. The brief called for stoic and guarded with the air of someone who knows exactly which spell she'd cast if you asked the wrong question.
Tess had been playing this character through a long D&D campaign and the brief showed it. The reference doc came in heavy: mood boards, pose annotations, the position of every toe ring spelled out. For the background she asked for something close to a Skyrim loading screen, soft and unfocused, so Vesper held the frame herself.
