A birthday present for a friend of mine, she plays a lot of DOTA2 and likes the Crystal Maiden (and looks like her too!) so I drew her as the character ^^


From the Black World

Character design course, designing a kids' toy line themed 'discovery'.

Here's the story:
Nema lives in a green world, she has a special connection with the land, as many of the inhabitants there. One day, dark creatures suddenly appear and abduct Nema and many others. One of them is Vex, who grabs Nema and throws her through the portal from which they came. They pillage, destroy and take whatever they please, and the green world becomes darker..
Nema, transported to the black world finds many of her kin trapped, listens to the pain of the earth there and works furiously to set them free to run back through the portal to take them home. She is captured in the escape attempt and the dark creatures start experimenting and brainwash her.
Vex, on his time on the green world suddenly sees something, he sees the beauty, and the futility of what he's doing. The black world is all he knows and here there will be another black world, with its toxic, dusty air and acidic, tarred soil. Grabbing a fallen flower he decides to try to change his own world.
Nema is now darkened, as with all the creatures of the black world, who are either born to it or transformed. She is sent to take from the green world, as the black world has nothing but dust and waste. She is met with Vex, who recognizes her. He tries to stop her but her look is empty, she attacks and nearly destroys him. Then he shows her the flower and through it she hears her world and suddenly remembers who she is, and together they decide to try to heal the black world :)

Thanks! ^^
