Just a little thank you for LukaSkullard for helping me get closer to my point goal~!Here's a portrait of her handsomely devilish drow Zakrefrein (Gawd I love his name XD )
He was such a pleasure to draw. I'm so glad that I actually got a chance to work with dark skin!

This is beautiful! He looks so elegant and confident. His eyes are very lively and you've made his hair look so soft and shiny. Zak would be so pleased, he's very proud of his hair and it looks awesome in this drawing!
I absolutely LOVE his ears. The length and shape is perfect!!
Thank you so much for working so hard on this for me even when you're not feeling well. I'm so lucky to have such a nice friend who makes these beautiful images of my characters! I really do love your art.
Oh! And I am happy you like Zak's name. 
Zek: meaning lithe, rage, dragon, wyrm
ra: meaning fool, game, prey
fein: meaning minstrel, music, song
I was pretty happy with how that sounded, but switched Zek to Zak because it just sounded more like the name of a punky troublemaker, which was what I had in mind for the character.

I'm so glad you like this!
Maww~ you are really too sweet❤️ I enjoy your characters, so I do enjoy drawing them quite a bit c:
So that's where his unique name came from! Lol, Zak does sound more punk than Zek. I think the change was wonderful~!

You aren't wrong~!
Mm, for more traditional names (like Pavel), I just listen to whatever's around me for something interesting.
For instance, Pavel was named after an anorexic male model I saw while surfing the web for haircuts. I couldn't find anything on said model aside from his name, so I decided to name my boy after him c:
Hm lessee, more untraditional names (like Nym and Jou'an) usually start out more normal until I add different sounds or letters. Like, Jou'an started out as Joanne, but I changed the spelling, added an apostrophe, and changed the pronunciation. Nym.....I can't even remember where that came from XD
I'm doing better than yesterday c: not as dizzy but still sick enough to spend most of the day in bed. I'm sure I'll be able to function normally tomorrow ~ thank you for your concern! It makes me happy to know that people do care about how I'm doing

Ah, that's a really creative way to do naming! I like the idea of looking for inspiration and then adjusting things to make them more personal and original.
I'm really glad you're starting to feel well again!
