Aery Name: Skrekrill
Character Name: Rakhamat
Character Species Combination: White-Headed Vulture (Trigonoceps occidentalis)/White Serval (Leptailurus serval)
Rank: Adult, Madadh clan
Gender: Female
Character Personality: Rakhamat is a very stoic, serious gryphon who despises luxury, vanity, and excess in all its forms. She knows she's not the biggest, the strongest, or the prettiest bird out there, and so she has taken full advantage of her intellect; she studies the world as much as she can, and enjoys taking frequent "visits" to the other territories to soak up as much knowledge as she possibly can. This, combined with Skrekrill's focus on military rigor, has given Rakhamat an excellent mind for strategy-- as she grows older, her ability to spot defensible positions and ambush sites become extraordinary. She is not especially aggressive nor violent, but she is not at all afraid to engage in a fight when she needs to defend her aery. Above all else, Rakhamat is fiercely loyal to her Queen and her aery, and would gladly give her life to please the whims of either.

So, after a couple months' deliberation, I've finally decided to join Windsonde-- and I'll be damned if it hasn't already pushed me to work harder on my art. I've been needing inspiration and little shoves here and there to improve my craft, and I thought their artists' challenges with their distinct consequences would help me immensely. I'm also looking forward to getting to know this community of artists and working with them.

I hope you all enjoy, and please download to see the full detail of the work; it's a rather large piece!

Hey, would you mind if I featured Rakhamat in Kiyet's second adult challenge? I haven't had much opportunity yet to draw vulture-gryphs, and she's got a wonderful design.

Oh wow, I love how much she varies as she gets older, and her face... that's the best XD Soooo serious.

Thanks! Haha, she inherited all of those awesome traits from her White-headed vulture side-- they're such cool birds!

Go Skrekrills XD

She is one of the most awesome vulture gryphons I've ever seen! I'm envious I never thought of this design, that's how much I like it. I will use her in one of Valcaur's challenges.

khyterra In reply to Ciameth [2011-01-17 16:29:35 +0000 UTC]

Oh, wow, thanks for the high praise!
She was certainly a lot of fun to draw and design-- she practically sprang to life fully-formed as soon as I figured out what "halves" I was going to use!

I'll definitely be looking forward to seeing how Valcaur responds to her!

Thanks a lot! Haha, I'm sure she totally idolizes his awesomeness as a former Madadh-- that's what she wants to be, after all! She would totally be all over him if she was his age XD

He was pretty handsome, if he does say so himself. ;D

Older, but sharper! He likes seeing the new go-getters going and getting Just how he wishes his living family member was like! XD

Ahaha, poor Dax! I may just have to draw a piece with the three of them together one of these days, just for shiggles XD

It's a shame he has to admit they're related sometimes, really. No one blames him though, HIS children were amazing.

khyterra In reply to tricksparrow [2011-01-17 04:53:02 +0000 UTC]

Well, naturally, if they carried his fine genetic stock! Kids these days, all their priorities in the wrong places with their heads in the clouds (literally, as they are gryphons, but you get the picture). Why, in his day, fledgelings learned to fly by being knocked off of high mountains into blistering hot volcanoes! Youth today have it way too easy!

Thank you!
When I saw the white-headed vulture as I was perusing bird-half-options, I just knew I had to do one XD
She's such a cute little fluffball as a fledge... then she gets all big and surly
