[ID: a watercolor illustration of Gorgug and Ayda. Ayda, a black phoenix with fiery wings, hair, and tattoos is wearing over-ear headphones, and her eyes are wide with delight. There are small sparkles around her head as she listens. Next to her, Gorgug, a green half-orc with longish messy hair and floppy ears looks down at her, smiling slightly.]
my contribution to the fantasy high art collab! Ayda Aguefort, light of my life
[ID: Digital full-body art of Ayda from Fantasy High against a pale yellow background with a faint diamond shape pattern. There is a white halo behind her head. Ayda is a thin young black half-phoenix woman with dark brown skin, short hair made of orange flames, orange-yellow bird wings, and large reddish bird talons as feet. She has orange arcane rune tattoos down her arms and wears a black vest and white linen pants with a red waist sash. Ayda is facing the viewer with a curious smile, one hand raised hesitantly and the other holding a small green notebook. End ID]
[ID: Two digital lineart drawings of Ayda and Garthy from Fantasy High. The first drawing shows Ayda’s previous incarnation as a thin adult woman with a bird beak and very long hair in two braids, wearing a long skirt. She is holding Garthy, a thin half-orc child, up on her hip, and they have their arms around Ayda’s neck. Garthy is maybe 6 years old and has fluffy hair with an undercut. They are barefoot and wear simple clothes. Ayda smiles at Garthy, who looks up with a worried expression.
The second drawing shows Garthy as a thin young adult with long tied-back hair in dreads. They are wearing a tank top and have several arm tattos. Mirroring the first drawing, they hold a young Ayda on their hip with a gentle expression. This Ayda has shorter hair and no beak, but she has small wings and bird-like talons. She has one hand on Garthy’s chest and looks a bit confused. End ID]
It’s Ayda day, and I will take any opportunity to celebrate perhaps the best NPC of any TTRPG show.
[ID: 6 gifs from fantasy high sophomore year of emily as fig and brennan as ayda. fig says, “i don’t need protection from fire because i’m immune now,” and winks with a smile. ayda responds, “you just winked at me. that’s.. flirtatious?” fig nods and says, “yeah.” ayda nods, starting to turn away, and says, “incredible. incredible. i’m distracted.” emily laughs, leaning back in her chair. END ID]
