Contest for a character design! (May/2025), ends on the 31st
🕑 Added 2025-05-22 19:09:54 +0000 UTCAs summer approaches, I felt like drawing something floral :3
This fluffy kobold is an expert in flowers! She knows the properties of flowering plants well, and can turn them into fragrances and perfumes that ensnare the senses, or brew sweet-smelling teas that heal your wounds (or open new ones!).
If the winner so wishes, I can whip up a NSFW version, or a version without the braids if you find those too un-koboldly :D
In order to participate, you must answer the prompt:
She can brew fragrances that have magical properties. Think of a situation where she might find herself using one!
Rules:
• Try to keep it under 100 words (200 absolute max)
• Post your entry as a comment to this post
• Don't use ChatGPT or other generators

Submit your entry in the comments before it turns June (in -12UTC, the last timezone in the world). I'll announce the winner at the start of June. The winner will receive the character design pictured without the blurred watermark, including a transparent background version.
I'll pick the winner based on how creative/fitting/funny or otherwise interesting I think the entry is!

I find it interesting that the fragrances are what matters here. The points could have diminished effects or simply taste like medicine, but surrounding yourself in magical mist, plants grow, things disappear, wounds heal, etc. I imagine her day to day is as a simple apothecary, helping the people. But she also loves to experiment by creating powerful new plants for more powerful effects. She'd use heightening effects to safely gather new wild species. Her shop has new smells all the time but if you suddenly smell something odd, she might be around!

I think her name would be Ashaya, and she would be a kobold druid that tames dinosaurs and other fauna in the Valashmai jungle on the pathfinder continent of Tian Xia. The Valashmai jungle is huge and untamed but I like to imagine Ashaya has used her magical potions and fragrances to tame and ride dinosaurs in the jungle as well as maintain a small floral oasis in the heart of the jungle for weary animals to be rejuvenated. Few people on Tian Xia know of Ashaya's existence, but the ones who do speak of a soft and fluffy dinosaur riding kobold who smells of apricots and summer blooms.

The flowers she adorns herself have dried and lost their scent, oh no! A bit of her magical fragrance and they'll start smelling fresh in no time. Now, if only she had a concoction to get rid of the smell of the added fragrance...
