City Brownies are Brownies that live close or in Human or Humanoid settlements and have therefore adapted to look like rodents to blend in better and be spotted less for safety. All Brownies are also called Borrowers as another name for them. they typically make their clothes out of discarded or things they have "borrowed" as well as making whatever else they need out of these items.
Wild Brownies are Brownies that live out in the wild, hence the name, and look like tiny bear men and tend to avoid areas populated by Humans or other Humanoids - therefore not much is really known about them and their culture. Much like many other Tiny Folk Fae they wear clothing made from plants or discarded or "borrowed" things like their City Brownie counterparts.
Pixies are malicious pranksters that get a good laugh from harming people with their practical jokes, though some - but not all - don't seem to be aware that they are causing harm and often think the victim of their cruel jokes is just being funny. They don'gt wear clothes at all and seem to be made from plants or other natural materials depending on the season they are seen in (I.e Winter Pixies seem to be made of snow, ice, and dead twigs while Summer Pixies seem to be made of blooming flowers, rocks and grass ect.)

I promised I'd show off my beeg Halloween oc family, so that's what this post is about. All the art was done by my buddy @InfernalJade on Twitter and Newgrounds, please go check her out.
Other than that, here is my biggest group of OCs I have. Update (4-8-23): Added their respective voice claims! Please check for the latest reblog to watch. Update (8-6-23): Renovated the sypnosis and character descriptions so they're better written! Please take your time rereading :) Update (9-4-23): Made an Introduction video for the blog, please watch that first here before reading about each characters!
Within our world lies many tales, and in those tales lay legends told throughout history. Tales of trolls and true love, cautionary tales for children and the childish, and stories of the supernatural and superstitious. All of these fables were recorded over the years by many different people over many decades.
But that’s only to the people of Earth and the Dead. Beyond both planes lies a third realm, one where the Autumn Equinox rules forever. The days and nights are never too cool or hot, and a place full of humans and creatures of myth. This realm is Samhvilia, and it is the home of a wealthy family known as The Orthos Family.
The Orthos Family has been around for generations, and have been seen as high royalty to many in Samhvilia. It is here that The Orthos Family are keepers of deep knowledge. Books of lost history and much more from Earth are found and polished for Samhvilia to read. Whatever kind of book you wish to find, The Orthos Family will have it somewhere within their library filled walls. Not only that, but they’re the family that holds the Power of the Autumn Haunt (Halloween). Without it, Halloween would’ve been lost to time long ago.
But… even if they hold much knowledge from past decades, there is one story that remains untouched, untold by time. There is more to The Orthos Family than what everyone sees, and when two of the youngest sons in the family find a piece of an unsolved puzzle, they discover there is more to the Family and Samhvilia than anyone would ever thought.  Join the children of The Orthos Family, as they embark on a journey of mystery. To understand a rabbit hole of untold history, and the true powers of the Autumn Haunt and those after it.
Tumblr media
THE CHARACTERS
Founded by the Patriarch Samhe (Saw-way) Orthos, The old turnip has lived through much history and hell that he's grown tired over these last generations. He's often reserved to himself, but his cold and what feels like emotionless attitude can make the hairs of anyone who sees him stand up instantly.
He's not used to the world and how much it's changed, even outside of Samhvilia. His personality is that of a strict father, a tough and cold attitude to show he means business. In his spare time, Samhe likes writing in his room or reading a gothic book to himself.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Following Samhe is the Matriarch of the clan, Willo Orthos, A rutabaga headed nature spirit. She's somewhat similar to Samhe in terms of a strict parent, but she doesn't come off as cold or emotionless like he does. In fact, she's quite the opposite. Willo takes happiness in ger role as a matriarch and mother, teaching her children lessons for them to use as they grow older, and even offer a helping hand to those in need.
She has a few degrees in spell making, culinary alchemy, and party arrangements. Other than that, Willo is loved by her family and even by some other children. A kind mother despite being uncanny.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Moving from Samhe and Willo now comes the children. The first son of the family, Crane Orthos is the eldest of The Orthos Family children. He was raised by Samhe under a golden child influence, which developed his personality into that of pride an arrogance.
There are days where he's selfish, yet this doesn't mean Crane is completely heartless. He cares deep down for those close to him, whether it'd be his family or close friends (assuming he even has any friends). In his spare time, Crane likes to practice his sword fighting skills alongside writing down stuff in his private journal.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The next child of the Orthos Family is Hallows Orthos, the second oldest son in the family. Hallows' personality is described as charming and energetic, an optimistic go getter who loves playing tricks and pranks and having fun. He is also close to Crane, despite Crane having slight jealousy towards Hallows for being the Spirit of Halloween.
He doesn't care too much for his family's history archiving tradition, but rather he embraces the Autumn Haunt every single day. He is the Spirit of Halloween afterall, so to keep such a title and power is important. Otherwise Halloween as a holiday would've been nonexistent long ago. When he's not playing tricks or gobbling down bowls full of candy, Hallows loves playing around with his younger brothers and visiting Earth from time to time.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Next is the adopted daughter of the Orthos Family, Batile orthos is a vampire bat fairy who hailed from a different part of Samhvilia before she became a foster child. In the family, she's the older sister. It's unknown whatever happened to her previous family, but Batile doesn't remember. She's quiet, sassy, and a reserved bookworm who, like an actual bat, spends time hanging from ceilings reading or sleeping.
She's often the medium between Hallows and Crane whenever they argue, the older sister to keep Ignus and Scorch from making bad decisions, and her relationship with Willo by learning magic and feeling like she's a part of the family. In her free time, Batile likes to read magic books to help furbish and even improve her magic skills.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Finally, we have Ignus and Scorch Orthos, the younger twin brothers of the Orthos Family. Ignus is the one in the orange sweater vest, while Scorch is the one in black. Ignus and Scorch's behavior and age are equivalent to that of tweens, ones who love to play tricks and find new adventures wherever they go. They can be a bit dumbfounded, and even comedic, but both twins stick together even when things get dark.
Ignus is described as adventurous and mischievous, while Scorch is smart and cautious. Together, these two like to cause hijinks wherever they are, and they also have a great relationship with Hallows.

Binded by flesh and soul; We, The Orthos Clan, dedicate to the archives of this world.

Duck, Duck, Goose - Short Story
New flash fiction! Duck, Duck, Goose by Al Whitt. #fiction #shortstory
Short but wide red mushrooms peak out from under fanning brown leaves, bright spots enlivening the regular, dreary gray mountainside so familiar to those of the small but familial city of Winderscot. Traditionally, dark log cabins dot the valleys clear of the towering dark oak trees that make up most of the mountain, but in these modern times concrete and drywall creations find themselves side by…

Was thinking about why the fae would want to swap children or take humans to their realm and I've come to the conclusion that it's mostly about lying.
A human can tell you you're the most beautiful thing they've ever seen. Or make a less hurtful excuse for why they don't want to do something when theyre upset with you for something you can't control.
I imagine fae toddlers are just as insufferable as human toddlers with their questions and demands, but not being able to (harmlessly) lie and say things like "blue's clues went bed because she needs rest just like you" would be incredibly unpleasant.
I imagine the fae want good liars, and admire the human ability to lie. They want secretaries who can say their schedule's full, messengers who can deceive their enemies.
I think it would be really funny if one of the Fair Folk became fascinated with affirmations and decided the favor some mortal owed them was saying their morning affirmations for them because they can't.

As you may have heard, we're hard at work preparing for the crowdfunding launch of Little Wolves, a folk-tale TTRPG about shapeshifter werewolves in The Enchanted Forest.
With the project launching on May 14th, our focus has been on creating a playable free demo and getting some awesome art done. 
And speaking of that awesome art, here's a work-in-progress peek at a piece depicting all four of the fae queens by the wonderful Grendel Menz!
The Queens & Courts of The Forest
Tumblr media
A WIP piece of art by @grendel-menz depicting the four queens.
The Enchanted Forest is home to the fae courts, with 4 of them being the focus in Little Wolves. Lead by their communities and named for their queens, the courts of the Witch, Pumpkin, Troll and Mermaid each tend to The Forest in their own way, and have found harmony among each other and their respective elements of Wind, Fire, Earth and Water.
Each character has ties to one of these courts that affect the elements they’re strong and weak in, and each court and element grants a different kind of Mark when you perform favors or overcome Elemental Trials.
Grendel’s depictions of the 4 queens are phenomenal, and soon enough we’ll be telling you more about each of the individual courts, their queens, and the many denizens you’ll meet on your adventures! 
For now, we'll leave you with a look at two of the work-in-progress designs of the four queens themselves! If we hit our "more art" stretch goal, Grendel will be doing full-page pieces of each queen to be paired with their bio and information about their court!
Tumblr media
Selene the Witch Queen and Nayeli the Mermaid Queen.
That's all about the Queens and Courts for now~
In the coming weeks, we'll be talking more about the courts, the elements, and every other aspect of Little Wolves leading up to the crowdfunding launch on May 14th. Stay tuned, and follow the project for more!
Want to see Little Wolves in action?
Nevyn will be running a session of Little Wolves on the Plus One EXP Twitch channel tomorrow night, February 28th, starting at 7pm central! Be there, and be ready to howl~

Decided to paint some antagonists from my current DnD campaign! On the left is Titania, faerie Queen who hasn't been entirely unhelpful, on the right is Apiat, undead fae bug creature who has a bad habit of hoarding the souls of the dead to torment them for eternity.
Couldn't pick b/w the one with the eye glow and without so you get both I guess! There's a matching piece of the good guys here!
Shout out to our dm @wethekeegsta for making them very cool and terrifying

Hi there! I’m Madirune, a digital artist who specializes in character and animal illustration. To start off with a bang, I figured I’d show my latest commission, best described to be a diamond dragon with butterfly wings!
