The Slugs Have Chosen A Princess.

A teenage girl with her back to the camera walks forward across a blue-gray sandy ocean floor criss crossed with rippling light reflections. She leaves a trail of three footprints behind her. Her white polo and fluffy knee length blue skirt with a black belt and petticoat ripple in the water. Her hair is a blue bob above which floats a crown of water droplets. She looks up and to her left, where a parade of sea slugs comes from. They travel down the canvas and start circling the girl just below her left shoulder. They make three loops before continuing down on a diagonal just below her right knee and continue their trek off the right side of the page. They are a rainbow of blues, yellows, and greens with fluffy antennae. Some have spots and spikes. In the blue gradient background, silhouettes of sea creatures can be seen. From top to bottom, they are a flock of three spotted eagle rays (top left), a hawksbill turtle (top right), a school of herring (top right behind the hawksbill to middle right), a black tipped reef shark (middle left), and a smaller black tipped reef shark (bottom right).

The slugs have chosen a princess.

A black teenage girl stands sideways pointing a Wild West pistol at the camera. A round lilac sigil glows around the muzzle. The sigil's outer ring is filled with triangles. The inner circle is filled with five circles with dots in the middle arranged in a pentagon. The circles are connected by lines. A black poncho billows out behind her. Two violet straps studded with bullet holders cross over her chest. She wears a white long sleeved shirt and brown pants. A black cowboy hat with a violet ribbon shades her stern eyes and sterner expression. Her black dreads wave in the breeze. Behind her, the red desert sand stretches to the horizon which ripples in the fading heat of sunset.

Introducing Violet Death, the most terrifying teenage gunwitch in the whole West. Her truth bullet will make you spill your guts-- in both senses of the phrase.

A 3/4 view portrait of sea slug humanoid with teal skin and bright blue freckles. They match her round, pupil-less eyes that have black wings. On top of her skull is a blue goo resembling a short bob hair cut. Two black furred antennae sprout from it. On either side of her black lips are two small bright blue tentacles. She smiles, revealing sharp white teeth. In the dark water around her, glowing blue lights hang. End Id.

Made a little portrait of a sea slug lady complete with the head antennae and face sensory tentacles. I think we sometimes forget they're voracious predators so I gave her sharp teeth.

Facing towards the camera, a black teenage girl crosses her arms over her chest. In each hand is a pistol. Across her chest, two violet sashes containing bullets. Her shirt is simple white linen; her pants simple brown. A dark blue poncho covers her shoulders and spare fabric cascades off the left side. A black cowboy hat with a violet ribbon shades her stern face. Standing behind her is a bipedal black creature made of rivulets of thick liquid. Two pronghorn antlers sprout from the crown of its head. Its red eye stares at the viewer, emotionless. Two wings spread out fully behind its back. Behind them both the sun is setting, painting the sky red, orange and purple. The sand is the color of blood with small tufts of brush sprouting.

A teenager girl on a quest to avenge her mother. A demonic guardian bound to her that refuses to kill people. An empty desert where no one can hide for long....
