Sizes of the JTTW Pilgrims
Someone posted the following picture to a Monkey King-related Facebook group that I belong to. The bottom part reads:
"The original novel describes Bajie's body as being one zhang tall. Three Chinese feet is 1 meter. One zhang is around 3.3 meters. Sha Monk is 1.2 zhang, which is close to 4 meters. The Tang monk is 1.8 meters. The Great Sage Lord is 4 Chinese feet, or approximately 1.3 meters."
Edit: I've written an article about the picture.

I guess I had more trouble putting something interesting together for them because they don't have any abilities or a super unique campaign. I still really like their design though!
Hunter without their outfit under the cut because I drew a bunch of details that got lost under their armour and cape
I think the rot mushrooms look very cool, personally :)
At first I wasn't going to give them a cape that was so directly based on red lizards but then I was like 'who cares it's MY crossover and I get to make the rules' so now I guess there are rain world lizards in this version of starbound
