That time Aloy met a synchronized Tenakth boy band and perspective made things even weirder xD

OC Hours: Tekka, Horizon Forbidden West

An OC I’ve been thinking about and doodling for a year now, Tekka is a Tenakth from the Sky Clan territories who was a climbing scout. They left the clan in protest after their friend Kotallo’s ousting, and over time have collected their own band of misfits made up of disillusioned young Utaru and former Oseram delvers who snuck into the west and stayed. Their facial and body paints and clothing have changed over time reflecting the contributions of these additional cultures.

Tekka is no longer able to climb after a spinal injury that caused unilateral muscular atrophy in their left leg, requiring an assistive support device created by an Oseram forgewoman of the band in order to walk (bits of which are seen here on their forward leg and around their waist). They have proved a capable leader of their band of wayward souls, surviving in the foothills between Sky Clan and Utaru territory in the shadow of a broken machine Cauldron.

when will guerrilla games release a detailed Tenakth tattoo guide so I can draw each one with accuracy? i am also convinced at least some of the white is pigment and not paint but would love official confirmation.

These text posts will be presented as an offering to the Tenakth at the Embassy. I hope they will be deemed a worthy tribute.
