Redraw Challenge: Kroashent - The Rescue
April's Redraw Challenge, selected by my wonderful patrons, is one that I have a special connection to, a redraw a drawing from May 2019, my 1000th drawing posted to this website! Its especially fitting that this one is ready just in time for Lesbian Visibility Week, celebrating women loving women in Alvez and our own world.
[b]Original Text: [i]An early encounter between Kathalia and Gwae from Kroashent.
When Gwae falls into a trap and is captured by an evil nobleman, Kathalia rushes in to save her with crossbow, sword and unnecessary action stunts, happy to play the swashbuckling hero. As Kathalia holds Gwae close for a daring escape, the silver-haired mage has a startling realization that she may have feelings for her rescuer. But the moment is quickly overshadowed when the pair suddenly swings off the balcony, Gwae screaming and hanging on for dear life as they sail over an army of very angry guards.
Val's Notes: I really love how this one came out, and the original is one I have a lot of love for. I wanted to keep the concept and general vibe of this piece, but upgrade it both artistically and in terms of Kroashent's ongoing lore as the story gets written (Check out Kroashent: Bal des Loups for the first ongoing published Kroashent story!
This scene is envisioned to take place in the Kroashent story that precedes Bal Des Loups. I changed Kathalia's outfit to that of her highwaywoman persona, La Louve de Frehel, and changed the scene to be more mid-swing, rather than before it, as the pair make a daring escape via a passing windship.
If you want to support Kathalia, Gwae and Kroashent, helping bring more scenes like this to life, consider supporting me on Patreon for exclusives, voting privileges and drawing rewards! Every bit of support helps: www.patreon.com/Kroashent Alvez and the World of Kroashent is owned by me.

Gwaepril - Fighting Frostmaiden
It's time again for "Gwaepril", a celebration of Gwaeron Sulime Dethemir, Sidhe Sorceress and master merchant.  I felt inspired to try and find a good "action pose" for her this time.
Hoping to take a bit more advantage of April this year to get out a few more Gwae drawings for people to enjoy!

Imprinting should be a thing werewolves do. Wait, no, stick with me. Not in a fated mates way, like Twilight did it, but as an evolutionary adaptation for pack-bonding. The werewolf has an instinctual (though not irresistible) attachment to whoever was there to help them through the transformation process. That's *supposed* to be the pack that turned them, but isn't always, and there things get interesting. -Werewolf imprints on non-werewolves, ends up with found family and unconventional pack dynamics
-Use it as a meet cute romance start, but less fated mates, and more friends-to-lovers.
-A werewolf imprints on a random group of campers who came across them on their first full moon. Hijinks ensue.
-In a darker story, it could have drama potential, being weaponized by abusive packmates.
-For straight-up horror, it could be a wurdulac situation, and the werewolf could be bent on turning their new "packmates" whether they like it or not.
