gbbHgf look at how much difference there is between tallest and shortest people.. these are all full sized adults, none are children/teens of their species.. Like, imagine you’re some 4 something foot tall person and you’re just trying to have a nice day going out to get some food and you nearly get trampled to death in the street by some 7 foot tall elf bastard .. Or you’re stuck in a crowd and can’t even tell where you’re going because you can only see people’s knees.. Blease.. someone save the little Ythrili (blue one).. they shouldn’t be in this city ghgh...

#DONOT REBLOG!!! this is just a reference image that I'm sharing bc i find something funny about it.. it is NOT finished art or etc.#IGNORE the anatomy lmao none of these images are supposed to be from the waist down like.. I just took their waist up #images and drew legs onto them afterwards hence why the lower halves have darker lines and less detail since it was just #a quick scribbly thing i wanted to make for the sake of having a reference image but #And it is an actual thing that creatures trend larger in Nanyevimi like.. everything just elvolves bigger than it would on earth or somethin #so generally the average height for humanoid beings is larger as well as stuff like plenty of animals are giant and etc.#so in terms of the WORLD like.. the player character in the game is inevitably some sort of Nanyevimi native #thus they're likely around the average of like 6feet or so (depending on whatever background the person makes up for themselves)#so like.. in actuality nobody would really be THAT tall #but I guess just veiwing this as a human on earth and not some person from a fantasy realm where it's like.. me and nealry everyone I've #known are under 5'11 or at least under 6'5 #the idea that I'd show up to town and immediately be met with some freaks who are like 3 - 4 feet taller than anyone I've ever #met is like.. Threatening lol.. I'd walk into a bakery and see that the people working there could effortlessly crush me into a wall with #their giant freakish hands and turn striaght around and walk the hell out.. Unless I'm a super mage and can make up for my #Smallness Vulnerability by hurting tall people with magic then like.. I'm going to live in one of the territories of a tiny species lol #you bet I'm staying away from Avirre'thel and Jhevona since they're the ones that are laways like 7-8 feet #like how would ieia (the 4'4 ythrili) even have a conversation with Alsen (the 8'4 one)... would he have to sit cross legged #on the ground just to be face level with them?? ggghhhh.. Things to think about I guess when making a fantasy world where people #can vary in height so ridiculously.. I made their heights BEFORE drawing anything out and now seeing them alongside e #ach other is like.. absurd.. idk why I find it so amusing but I've just been fixated on this all day like.. Wow.. People Bigg #i'll be going to get some tea or doing something else and my brain just reminds me like 'hee hee... people bigg' gyhgjh
