NPC 014: Mun
🕑 Added 2024-12-13 06:39:01 +0000 UTCThaery are, as you can probably guess, very similar to fairies. And you would also probably not at all be surprised to learn that they are, essentially, their descendants. Without boring one on the long details of history, there existed a time on Neivaun where fairies were a folk of mischievous miniature creatures who aided in the ebbs and flows of the blood within the planet.
But there then passed another time where the natives were nearly wiped out and they began a period of time referred to as the 'reclamation period' in which the remaining fairy returned to the blood and re-emerged as monstrosities to help fend off what was perceived as a deadly infection on their planet. Once this period passed, most of these monsters returned to the blood once more. As a show of good faith, the thay'renay of the time offered her own blood as influence for the next wave of fairies.
And here these 'thaery' were born. Now a mixture of old and new, the thaery act as they had before whilst also assisting in the relations abroad. Many thaery find themselves in returning to their old mischievous ways, but they are also just as likely to find themselves worshiping gods they never knew and becoming guardians of their shrines with powers granted to them. With so much extra power, these small creatures can become rather imposing. And that is especially true for those which still posses memories of their times as monsters. The combination of magical power and ancient transmogrification can result in some peculiar tactics for dissuading opponents. And who's to say that blowing ones body up to be as utterly huge as possible isn't a sufficient defensive tactic?
Here's the other NPC of the month! I'd been inspired by a hairstyle I'd recently seen so couldn't help myself and went ahead. Though I didn't really realize until I'd gotten to the portrait segment that she had a similar look to Ridra. I tried to distinguish the two a bit though and hopefully they don't look too similar. Mun's colors were also directly inspired by the statues in the shrines you find throughout the world. I figured that it would be fitting and you can now see how a follower might transform as they worship this particular goddess.
I had planned that if the shrine guardian got picked to do her as boob themed expansion, but since it's a thaery, I am thinking all that extra power should do more to her than just boob size. That little body of hers may just find itself inflating like a huge blimp when she tries to use it.
