Half Elves Are So Interesting To Me.

Half elves are so interesting to me.

You’re born to parents with ridiculously different lifespans. One parent could potentially live to be 750-1000 years old. The other parent has 100 years at best.

But you? You’ll probably live to be about 200.

And more often than not, you’re parents aren’t together long term.

Maybe you’re raised by your elven parent. You’re looked at with pity, a half human, not really an elf. You’re elven parent looks at you with dread, they know they’ll watch you age and die. Wither like a flower before them with nothing they can do to spare you or themselves.

Or maybe you’re raised by your human parent. They breathe a sigh of relief that they won’t outlive you. But they watch in fear as they watch themselves and the humans around them age as you stay young. They know that you’ll find yourself alone.

They’ve condemned you to forever live on the outside, regardless of whether you’ve been raised by humans or elves. You’re condemned to watch one parent die far too soon, while another remains young while you age and die.

(I’m playing a half elf, I was just thinking about how she must be viewed by her human father versus her elven mother.)

after some research (listening to music) and consideration (enjoying music), I've come to the conclusion that there are three genres of vampire:

Dragula by Rob Zombie

Living after Midnighy by Judas Priest

and Daughters of Darkness by Halestorm

I reckon any vampire can be characterised by one (or more) of these songs

In Greek Mythology, Callisto Was A Hunting Companion Of The Goddess Artemis. Described As A Daughter

In Greek mythology, Callisto was a hunting companion of the Goddess Artemis. Described as a daughter of King Lycaon or sometimes a nymph. There is a version of her story where Zeus seduces her disguised as Artemis, which was the inspiration behind my first sketch... but I'm also very into the idea that Artemis had feelings for Callisto as well. 🌙✨🌿🐻
