It's been a while, I didn't remember this section existing, but here I go. I finished this character design recently. She is the priestess of her humanoid water tribe, which lives in a cold ecosystem. A lot of the design was based on Mongolian and Kazakh shamanism. In her tribe, the priestess's descendants get blinded in exchange for the connexion with the spirits. With her lamp, she guides lost souls to the beyond and communicates with the spirit, with her arm covered in armor she vanishes blackened spirits and fights against dark souls. A lot of the design is inspired by Mongolian and Kazakh shamanism. I'd love to get feedback, I shared my whole design process.
