||The Witcher tarot | King of Swords | Eskel||

If I was extra careful of the meaning and symbolism of each card for the major arcanas, I have been more flexible on the figures cards. So the character associations might be a little far-fetched sometimes. Also, I truly did stick to my choice of only drawing book/canon characters for the major arcanas. Even if I tried to do the same for the figures cards, I ultimately was tempted to draw a few game characters I like. There are also more women in those cards, given I prefer drawing them and I decided to draw the entire Lodge of sorceresses.
The significance of each figure is more vague than the major arcanas, that’s why I mostly picked the character based on the meaning of the four families (cups, pentacles, wands, swords). Even then, you sometimes have to squint your eyes a little to see the link between the card and the character. Honestly, I just wanted to draw more characters and have fun with the designs.
I absolutely love Eskel, and not drawing him in the major arcanas saddened me a little. So he was obviously the very first character I put on my list when planning the figures cards. I really wanted to highlight his scars, which I found most interesting in his character even if we know only a little about him. I really enjoyed the scenes he had in The Witcher 3, and I really hope we’ll get to see him again somehow.
