digital fan art of Essek and Verin Thelyss from Critical Role, styled like a sketchy comic panel. Essek is standing next to a sitting Verin, with arms crossed and a condescending expression on his face, while Verin is reading an old book with an angry pout. Essek says, "I still cannot believe you asked The Tempest to sign a book she hadn't written", to which Verin replies, "Leave me alone. At least I didn't steal two of our nation's priceless religious artefacts, and I'm not dating a cat boy".ALT

that one targeted elbow into Verin’s side told me everything i needed to know about that sibling relationship (i know they love each other)

digital thighs-up painting of two characters—a firbolg and a drow—in a dynamic fighting stance.

the drow is young-looking, athletic and slender, has gray-purple skin, long white hair in a high ponytail and short pointed ears. he is wearing an outfit comprised of a dark tunic worn over a white shirt and dark pants, as well as a purple decorative sash, some belts and a leather dagger harness with three daggers strapped to his chest. he is wielding an elegant silver glaive with a cocky smile on his face, looking up and off-camera at his foe.

the firbolg has tan skin with dappled brown splotches, tufts of brown hair at the edges of his jaw and the back of his hands, and a bright blue mohawk styled into a long braid. his ears a long and rounded like a cow's, and he has a large bovine nose. he is wearing a mustard yellow doublet over a dark brown shirt with wide sleeves, cinched at his forearms with gleaming brass-colored bracers. he is much taller than the drow and is standing behind him, his body leaning slightly forward in a protective curve, with his long tail curling in front of the elf, as if shielding him. he has a severe expression on his face, also looking up.

the painting is done with wide brushstrokes and employs a color palette of browns, purples, mustard yellow and blue, with slightly pink lighting evoking a combat atmosphere.ALT

MY BOYS ARE BACK!!!

digital drawing of Essek and Verin Thelyss from Critical Role as children. they look to be around eight or ten years old and are dressed in lightweight summer clothing with geometric cuts and accessories that children of noble drow upbringing might wear. they both have pointy ears and curly hair; Verin's is very long and braided into twin plaits, while Essek's is relatively short and sits like a cloud atop his head, with more closely shorn sides. Verin is giving Essek a piggyback ride, his hands hooked under Essek's legs, with Essek's arms wrapped around Verin's shoulders. Essek is missing a shoe on his right foot, and the ankle is swollen and bruised; his right knee, visible from under the torn hole in his pants, is badly scraped. they're both glaring in the same direction off screen, Essek with his shoulders raised and barely hidden tears in his eyes, and Verin with a frowning and serious expression, ready to protect his big brother.ALT
