Arrum's Family

The other night I worked on Arrum’s Parents Designs because I’ve been meaning to doooooo and that I’ve doodling in classes lately, so

Also sort of fixed Arrum’s ears since I’ve been wanting to better delineate fantasy race ears in my drawings (BIG EARS FOR EVERYONE SEM NO) and based Orc design stuff off of the Monster Manual but III’mmmm still leery of stuff but I guess Arrum’s Dad is kinda a weird Orc anyway

Arrum’s Mom met Arrum’s Dad during a time when she was kept at a monastery for safekeeping due to encroaching battles of… some… sort… and her husband was off fighting for a few years. Arrum’s Dad, like I said, is kinda a weird Orc and at the time was working as sort of a gardener/landscaper/he’s this laconic dude who keeps to himself and doesn’t seem to actively wish us harm and likes to plant things and sometimes uproots trees so we kinda just let him do his thing guy. Arrum’s Mom being a statuesque woman of 6’1” and a curious woman ended up wondering what an Orc was doing on his own being a gardener of sorts, taught herself Orcish from the monastery’s library in her copious free time because let’s face it there’s not a lot to do, and romanced the damn Orc herself. He ended up continuing wandering, she stayed at the monastery because hey, curiosity sated.

Enter Arrum, the world’s best poorly-kept court secret (Worst worst best-kept court secret?). You can read more about Arrum here.

Arrum’s Mom’s colors inspired by PLUMS AND WHEAT and because I wanted some nod’s to Arrum’s colors in there, Arrum’s Dad mostly inspired by lichen I think.

Also I gave them each a flower/plant/thing (and Arrum a new one to hold), which are Tuberose (Dangerous Pleasures), Rye (Changeable Disposition), and Milkwort (Hermitage, which seemed appropriate) haha I’m a dork who likes flowers so sue meeeeeee
