Well, one after the other, Morcaanan...  grin

If you make that white drake 2 pics could be added in for example, and another one might fit into a story or something related to it - maybe you have some ideas as you go along writing it? :)

That's close to what I was thinking, actually, I was going to use #15 and #16 for the Myth/Lore section.

OK, you've got me on a track here. If I could have #5 and #6 for the actual White Drake entry, then, maybe #15 and #16 for a story about this Elven woman and her Drake, would that be acceptable? Obviously the entry would come first, then the story, so they would be reserved in that order - sound OK?

@Decipher: I got the snake we've talked about (intended for the Festra Flying snake), now in full size, see here. Check the pic again and see if there are some adjustments in the entry that would need to be made to fit perfectly to the image!

Also: Sheil has two new pictures ready for taking drawn along the line of the last Krean pics we've put up. I've added them to the Sheil Resources thread, Part II, #42 and #43! :D

I would like to reserve this pic for a while, I'm not entirely sure if I can use it though.

Coren has better ideas how to use this picture (#43, Darshana) and it fits to the one he already has, so I give this one back  - in his hands.

I would like to reserve this one instead, which I don‘t like as much as the other one, but which fits better anyway for a priestess of Queprur:

Sheill: #9 Sing me a song


I have some questions and concerns to the other uploaded pictures: Why are here several black and white drawings, I thought all should be replaced which are on the site?

There are some others which don‘t fit our style as well like #26 Green Fairy, apart from that it suggests that fairies are allowed to develop (which they are not, at least Artemis was not allowed to do them when she joined). I think there should be a note close to the pic, that it can only be used for a myth etc if we really want to take it..

Another pic with which I have problems is #8 Into the dark - this is obviously the earth-moon and doesn‘t fit in our world where the moon is more looking like a soft glowing pearl on his bright site - if I remember correctly. Maybe Sheill could alter it for us?

A last point - I think we agreed about, that we don‘t want to have angels in Caelereth. Too much an earthen cliché. But the following pics are hard to use without having to think at angels when looking at them

#1 Ephemeral
#35 Solaris

A bit more consistence would not hurt or maybe it should be written down at a prominent place what is not wanted in this world (Like „common“ fairies or angels) so that everybody can see it before he invests too many ideas and commentators could refer to it as well?

Ok, #43 is now changed to a Coren reservation.

Sheil #9 now reserved for you - any specific idea already in which entry to use it? Could be the Queprur main entry as well, if so, a short description would be handy of what we see on the picture.

What do you think of #13 as a picture of Queprur BTW?

#8 is practically the same figure as #13, without the moon, though. Well, and we still don't know how the Caelerethian moon looks like, eh?

As for certain pictures that don't immediately look useable: Coren already managed to get one in with an elegant explanation in the Krean entry, so it's basically a challenge for creativity. Fairies could be e.g. part of fairy-tales (hence the name... grin) The Green Fairy has a somewhat different style, but I still thought it could perhaps be usable - the style is not too extreme. Black and white drawings (I guess I mentioned that) are included, even though they are not (yet) coloured. They cannot be directly used, but I could ask Sheil to consider a colouring in case we have a definite use for one. Some pictures are also interesting as only parts of them are useful - so it's difficult to generalize.

It could be mentioned at the top post of each artist resources thread that certain pics can be used only under special conditions etc. - ok, will think of something and add that in! :)

#9 - Priests of Queprur (see above, already started )

#13, maybe, perhaps if the entry is a bit twisted, this soul gryph relation could work out here (maybe she is pictured herself as being this soulgryph), the staff with this red stone has to be explained though

#8 - but we know how the earthen moon looks like - and this is a photo of it integrated here.

Yes, Coren found some nice interpretations for these coloured wings - but they were more easily to explain than what is left. And even with a good explanation the word „angels“ will always form in your head when looking at especially these two.

Is there any chance that a commissioned one of Linda Tso can be used? I would be interested in this one:

http://www.stickydoodle.com/html/dabusts3.htm
Seribaba-Sheba

If it would be possible I would integrate these bright signs on the forehead and arm into the submission of the priests of Queprur.

Commissioned works of Linda Tso: Sorry, but no chance to get any of those.

I agree with Talia on the angels point. If we have decided not to include angels it will be difficult for these to be used without evoking that concept in readers' minds. A rose by any other name...

We only have two of them anyway...

However, perhaps they could be used in a story? Maybe some folkloric tale about the gods giving a woman wings to escape imprisonment on some forlorn castle (I am sure our talented writers can come up with something less cliche!). So long as the wings are not used as a symbol of divinity or goodness or any other supernatural/angel related stuff, we migh be able to use them?

Btw I have a short person entry for #42. As soon as the bulk of it is edited, I will post it on the forums. However don't expect a traditional Coren entry this time ;) Just to get the picture integrated and a live manifestation of a key period of Krean history (mentioned in the new nybelmar timeline).

@Talia: Thanks! But are you absolutely sure you will not be using this one? I don't want to pounce on your reservations!
