Description Telluria, along with her brother Urias, were born of the noble cast of Orchidaceae known as The White, (as in, the white hind) whose bodies more closely resemble that of Demigod Harmonia herself rather than the common Orchidaceae. The hearts of The White are not located in the chest of their humanoid bodies, but in that of their lower half.

Telluria is the keeper of Miyune’s Lyre — an object many would think lavish and rich in design, but made from the simple, indestructible wood of the thicket the Earthen Creator once called home, it’s string comprised Harmonia’s hair. As the Keeper of the Lyre, Lady of the Ballad, or Sister Song, she does not participate in battle, but uses ancient songs composed by Miyune to gather, command, and bolster the flora and fauna guardians of the Goddess’ realm to aid in fight. Her armor is comprised primarily of vine and wood, though due to her station in Orchidaceae Society she also wears the shed scales of Harmonia and the bones of large animals. Like the rest of her people, the gems that decorate and empower her armor are star sapphire found throughout the great northern forest.

Telluria here is second to last for the Orchidaceae references. Amusingly enough, the Orchidaceae don't actually play a huge part in the Project A (tentative name people, trust me ) storyline -- at least, not yet. Perhaps they will in the future.

Don't pick on my lolanimals. They were thrown in last minute to give the "armored and with lyre" image a bit more relevance. XD

Telluria's brother, Urias, will complete the references for this race.

Once again, boo, watermark. Actual 'illustrative' images will have a much smaller one.

Love how inventive the creatures design is! The armour they are wearing is so detailed - simply beautiful

Those plant on the end of the horns and the vein tail are such a funny but nice touch Really shows their connection to nature :3

Haha, excellent! One of the things I try to do is make sure that nothing can ever be taken "too seriously", because it sort of ruins things imo :3 The poor Orchidaceae definitely see their share of bird poop and the like, probably wake up with nests in their antlers, too.

I wanted to stray from the typical faun and centaur thing with these guys (just plain human upper bodies) because of the Goddess that created them; she has absolutely no love for the boring smooth-skins of the world and created the Orchidaceae before they existed, anyway :3 Upright bodies and arms were something that already existed before this world's "humans" came into being, so it only seemed to make sense. XD It's really hard to stick with the similar idea but to change it juuuust enough!
