4 Creative Ways to Design Fictional Plants for Your Fantasy World

Hello everyone! If you want to add some unique flora to your world-building, this article is for you. In this post, I'll go through some ways you can find the inspiration to create fictional plants. Here are some ways to get creative:

Draw ideas from real-life plants: Find unique features of the plants around you that you can adapt to create an entirely new plant. For example, you could make an orchard full of fruit trees that project sharp needles from the hanging fruit when touched.

Think outside the box: Consider what the creatures in your world need. Figure out how their unique needs could be met by the plants. What kind of food do they eat? What is poisonous to them? Where do they nest? 

Tie in significance and mythological elements: Take ideas from folklore. Give your plants deeper meaning to the people that inhabit your world. What mystical properties do your plants have? Are they used in a ritual?

Consider the environment: When making a new type of plant, consider the climate and geography of its growing area. Plants that grow in dry areas look and function differently from those that thrive in wetlands. 

Get creative with your fictional plants. Consider purpose. Mix, match, and invent! Happy world-building!

Mirdalaan (mir.daa.laan)

General Description: The Mirdalaan is a majestic bird native to Mandalore, known for its double pair of wings and its deep symbolism of wisdom and knowledge. Combining characteristics of majesty and intelligence, the Mirdalaan is highly revered in Mandalorian culture as a symbol of insight and discernment.

Physical Characteristics:

Size and Structure: The Mirdalaan is a medium-sized bird, with a wingspan of about 1.5 meters. Its body is slender and elegant, covered in feathers of blue-silver hues that reflect light, creating a shimmering effect.

Head and Beak: The Mirdalaan has a relatively small head with a long, pointed beak, ideal for catching small insects and feeding on nectar. Its eyes are large and piercing, with a golden color that shines brightly in sunlight.

Wings: The Mirdalaan features two pairs of long and impressive wings. The primary wings are broad and robust, with feathers that shine in silver and blue. The secondary wings are smaller and more delicate, allowing the Mirdalaan to perform agile and precise aerial maneuvers.

Tail: The tail is long and slightly curved, with feathers extending in an elegant fan shape, aiding in stability during flight.

Behavior and Habits:

Diet: The Mirdalaan primarily feeds on nectar and small insects, playing an important role in pollinating the rare flowers that grow in the mountainous areas of Mandalore.

Territoriality and Mating Rituals: During the mating season, Mirdalaans perform complex aerial displays, with synchronized movements and a series of melodic calls to attract mates. Each display is a visual and auditory spectacle that demonstrates their intelligence and agility.

Resilience: Although a bird, the Mirdalaan is resilient and well-adapted to the diverse conditions of Mandalore, with feathers providing protection against predators and climate changes.

Cultural Significance: The Mirdalaan is an emblem of wisdom and knowledge in Mandalorian culture. Its image is frequently found in artifacts, sculptures, and even in armor, representing the importance of intelligence and reflection. Spotting a Mirdalaan is considered an auspicious sign that wisdom and discernment are needed to overcome challenges and achieve balance in life.

Half way through the year; so I decided to clean out my art folder a little and post the doodles, stuff I didn't end up really liking and illustrations I will never finish if I'm honest with myself. Enjoy!

"The Cursed Elder" — a chilling collection that brings to life the image of an old, tormented soul, turned into a monstrous being by the curse of obsession. Once a man, now a creature of darkness, his body is twisted and scarred by the forces that have consumed him over time. The fire of his past life burns within him, but it's now overshadowed by the relentless hunger and thirst for vengeance that drives his every move.

His age is evident in the frailty of his form, but beneath that lies an overwhelming power, fueled by years of obsession and demonic influence. His once human features are now twisted into a grotesque visage, a constant reminder of the price of his undying thirst for retribution. This collection captures the horror of a man who has become a monster, a creature caught between his past humanity and the dark forces that control him.

Avaya Laurangue, a warlock-in-training, feels the pull of a hidden power within her dreams. As the furcula-an ancient border spell protecting Roanoke Forest-weakens, she grapples with her burgeoning abilities, combining the deadly precision of steel with the ethereal dreamsmoke that provides untapped power in her mind. She races against time, sensing a looming threat as the creatures within the forest stir. Grenale, an incubus bound by the old ways, is forced to flee his burning home in Roanoke as human soldiers hunt his kind. The broken furcula has unleashed chaos, and Grenale must navigate a world where fear is the new commodity, all while wrestling with a growing hunger he can barely control. Nassem Fortune, a powerful incubus in the heart of the forest, sees the broken furcula as an opportunity to seize control and usher in a new reign of terror. He desires not only freedom for his kind but dominance over the human realm, manipulating the warlocks of Tantro to sow discord and unleash his army of incubus. As the lines blur between hunter and hunted, Avaya, Grenale, and Nassem are drawn into a dangerous game of power and survival. Can Avaya master her dream magic in time to confront the encroaching darkness? Will Grenale overcome his internal struggles to find his place in a changed world? And will Nassem's ambition consume them all in a tide of nightmares?
