May I introduce you Lord Aryante...
He is a proud Fastling, member of the race of the Littlefoots, one of the most magical races of the Realm of Hydria.

What littlefoots are?

Littlefoots is a race of tiny fae (faerie/elf-like) creatures that dont posses wings. Littlefoots have a thriving community in Hydria, organized in small settlements, littlefoots have theirs own small community. Littlefoots are separated in 3 major sub races, the Fastlings, the Elgerths and the Ebolaths. Each of the subraces are much more different than the other and in some occasions they have their quarrels and ventetas.

The Fastlings are ellegant thin, no more than 1 1/2 palm, and very elf like creatures with white, silver, blond pink hair with noble origins. They love Arts and sciences and they are fascinated by knowledge and beauty.

The Elgerts are slightly bigger than the Fastlings, strong builded with black and brown hair and tanned body. The Elgerth are the labors, or better the master artisants since their technical and mechanical knowhow exceeds even the human adversaries. In the ranks of the Elgerth you might find the most known warriors and leaders of the littlefoots race. Elgerth value honor and they settle their agendas with the sword.

Finally the Ebolaths. Cursed by nature these steel blue creatures, believe it or not are part of the littlefoot race. It is said that thousands of years before some fastlings that were seeking power journey to the tops of mount Vesper in order to find the mysteries of their creation (since it is said that the littlefoots descented from mount Vesper) When they came back they were tainted by an evil force. Their appearance has changed into creatures, dark and amazingly beautiful or terribly deformed creatures. When the Ebolath came back the rest of the race banished them into the swamps of the lizardmen, this was the beginning of the greatest but yet "little" in size war Hydria ever seen ...

This is a collaboration between me and the lovely ~abhor. It is our submission for my Lord's Fantasy Contest [[link] The concept came in my mind after reading the description about what is needed in the contest. Then I found the amazing stock of ~abhor. I started working on it alone and till an almost finished state when I sent it to ~abhor to see if he approves cause he is the model after all! He liked it very much and immediately asked me if he can play with it. He added things to the background, my background was more 'abstract', with golden tones like clouds darker and shinier in parts, sparkles, and a butterfly, the big one. He decided to put trees, birds, one more butterfly in the distance and the moon to the background. He did a fantastic job, he also refined some mistakes. Then he send me the file and I reworked the colour to my liking. More golden tones and stuff were added by me cause I found it rather dark in the end! Well, that's all! Now from a single work that I started, I have a lovely collab, and I am very happy with it! We plan to collaborate again soon.
