Hello there! These are designs for a DnD NPC’s band member. They’re all lightning/thunder-themed because the lead singer is an air genie. I asked my DM for advice on band members and he suggested I add one based on a fluxcharger monster, which was a good idea! I shaped the lightning arching off a charger’s head into an afro-shaped and I played around with silhouette. I thought about making them like a mermaid but the movement seemed awkward. I like the octopus version more. I thought about giving them painted tattoos but those turned out really hard to draw.

The bottom pictures are concept designs for the entire gang.

This is Io, one of Cyrene’s backstory characters. She’s been tagging along with the party for a while. She’s a yuan-ti warlock who got possessed by her sword/patron, which we got rid of.

I wanted to show her accountant job as well as her managerial position at Cyrene’s old workplace, so she gets a dress shirt and tie. As well as how she’s not really the best fit for the job desire-wise, so I made her clothing a bit mismatched for her occupation. I added her coat to show her allegiance to Cyrene, who has a similar coat.

I modified Taya’s design again for a bit. I made her coat oversized and gave her bad posture. I changed her collar a bit too. I think it shows off her personality more. She definitely has books sewn into that coat. She gets mad when one of those books gets stabbed instead of her.
