Through Starless Sky To Blackest Ground

She's a 10 but thinks Sunningrocks belongs to Riverclan

Here with more Vitellaria and burn art! Saw that people really enjoyed them in my last post which really motivated me to draw them both once again!!!

As I said in my last post, Vitellaria is an outcasted RainWing, though I never really got into why she was outcasted in the first place. It really started when she began to consume more meat than fruit within the RainWing kingdom. She’d hunt smaller prey like monkeys and sloths, which irked the RainWings, as these creatures were often seen as pets. She was pretty apathetic towards the RainWing norms and completely refused to try to fit in, which led to her exile.

Vitellaria never truly thought her exile was just, and this anger simmered within her and manifested as hatred for her own tribe. She would always try to prove herself as more than just a lazy RainWing, especially when she moved to the Kingdom of Sand during her exile. During her stay in the desert, she’d sell small taxidermies of rare animals that she had brought back from the rainforest and would actually make quite a name for herself within the Scorpion Den. This is where Burn would take note of her skills and ask her to work on a few ‘special’ pieces.

Despite her popularity as a foreign merchant, Vitellaria faced lots of discrimination due to all the hate directed towards RainWings at the time. Despite this, Vitellaria never took it personally, as she refused to even see herself as a RainWing, but she didn’t quite like how it impacted her sales during the early days of her career as a seller. At first, she’d try to change her scales to match that of a SandWing, though that didn’t change much and simply put off buyers, as she looked almost uncanny, like another dragon wearing the skin of a SandWing. She’d soon simply settle on her natural color palette and create a name for herself despite this setback.

Vitellaria was actually recommended to Burn as a taxidermist. Burn wasn’t told that she was a RainWing and simply assumed Vitellaria was another SandWing merchant. Though when they finally met in person to discuss the commission, Burn was not too keen on having a RainWing take on the job. However, Burn acknowledged Vitellaria’s talent and soon found that she was the only one who would be able to stomach the thought of taxidermying another dragon and bring her Weirdling Tower to life.

Small full body of Vitellaria hehe

Cute little guy I doodled while watching Wendigoon

my OCs are sooo cool you guys don't know what you're missing. if you could see the show i'm watching in my head rn you'd go so crazy i'm telling u

do not. let out a “mrrow of amusement” to my husband.

A lot of artists talk about how they don’t like being called talented but I don’t really care. I feel like most people don’t mean it backhandedly or in a “you were born more creative/with more skill than everyone else”, most people just mean to say that you’re skilled. Or I could be wrong idk🙏
