The Final Dance

"Well, pyreflies aren't visible to everyone. For some, watching pyreflies depart the dead gives them a peace of mind, but what about those who can't see them? The dance makes it a ritual they can still be part of." —Yuna (Final Fantasy X-2.5 novella deserves the criticism it gets but there are still some lore-building gems in it)

fizban, god of the metallic dragons, who spends all his time polymorphed into a pony. and his five (not seven because divorce) gold dragon partners. all polymorphed variously.

i think this is the last dragon i made? he’s adapted from an actual DND character whose actual canon I don’t give a shit about. I just liked his vibe so i stole him. and turned him into a silly polyamorous pony. as with all things.

here is the pervious dragon

Did experiencing EXU: Divergence make you really think differently about certain characters who lived through it, like Ludinus? Or did it sort of solidify in your mind the reason why those characters are so hardened by the life they have endured?

FINISHED BAHAMUT! All 7 First Brood siblings are now complete after 3 years of work!

Pencils + a compilation of everyone together :) Still interested in drawing Midgardsormr down the road (he has been heavily requested!) but for now I’m just happy to have the siblings done. :)

✨Final Fantasy X Cover🌊

One of great hits of Playstation. You know the main team, but also the Aeons by their side.

My notes: Doing the characters was really fun, and some Aeons were really cool to draw. And I could do different wallpapers or even stickers.

My favourites are Shiva, Ifrit and Ixion.

I hope you like it!

Year of the Dragon Year of the First Brood! HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR! With my attempt at a Bahamut and Ratatoskr too! ;v;

I think ff15 would have gone very differently had anyone managed to frame the prophecy not as a divine inevitability but a demand made by the imminent threat to the world and to Noctis that is Bahamut.

Bahamut gets framed as- not benevolent per se, but *good* by the narrative. You’re told that this is the god who created the crystal, the prophecy, the ring. This is the god who has been in your corner from the jump. Don’t question it too hard. Go quietly into that goodnight.

The chessmaster has never once had the best interests of their pawns at heart.

Hold Bahamut up to scrutiny and he is the reason that Noct must die. Who orchestrated the growing darkness? Who demanded sacrifice to stop that same darkness in its tracks?

It is, I maintain, not necessary sacrifice. There exists a world in which the ring of the lucii demands a blood toll- a life for a life- and it goes unpaid. There exists a world that the crystal demands a blood toll- the king for the world- and it too goes unpaid. Still, the sun rises.

So then if Noct’s death is unnecessary, that means Bahamut is demanding the frivolous death of the man Gladio, Ignis, and Prompto swore to defend. That makes Bahamut a threat, just the same as daemons or Nifilheim or Ardyn or Ifrit.

And I think, come hell or high water, that the bros wouldn’t fold to that sort of threat. They’d stand and fight.

Garen, a craftsman who spent his life building cities and structures across Exandria, was the perfect manifestation of the Allhammer, the god of craft, creation, and legacy.

And Erro, a wanderer who had lost faith but by the end decided to not just protect people, but inspire them to rise up against their oppressors, was just as poetic as the Platinum Dragon. The god of justice himself, who stands for the downtrodden (just recently in the VM short stories we saw Vord taking in Kima with compassion as part of his tenets), telling a crowd, "Seven overlords or 1200 of us" and helping them free themselves from tyranny.

two dions?! what a deal!!!

I am so petty of not wanting to draw dragons to the point I made a human design of the two dragons deities from scratch for my DND campaign, listen…big winged-lizard is hard to draw alright? (IM LOOKING AT YOU DM)

If you’re interested on their appearance on my campaign, here’s more (context in alt!)
