  • As a commissioner you are allowed to use your commissioned artwork for anything personal (EX: Upload as an icon/banner/wallpaper, in a video, upload to character’s Toyhouse, etc), but give proper credit.

  • Note that all my commissioned artwork will always have a small watermark added to the full resolution given to commissioners. (EX: StarlightHL 2025)

  • Commissions are worked on at my own pace and completion can vary greatly between each one. I only take 5 slots per month and my goal is usually to finish them within said month, but that is absolutely not a guarantee. My trello is always open to see my process and I will do my best to give updates.

  • I tend to send wips for approval and ask clarifying questions quite often, not answering will affect the amount of time it takes for me to finish your commission.

  • I try to do commissions in the order I accept them but I will jump around the queue sometimes.

  • Give me at least a month's notice if you need your commission by a certain time so I can make sure to finish it by the given date. If a month's notice isn’t given, I’ll most likely deny your request.

  • My commissioned artwork may be posted to my social medias. Let me know if you would like a private commission.

  • The characters requested in your commission must be yours, you have permission to use them, or it is a gift for the owner.

  • Have a clear ref of your character before commissioning me. I do not accept traditionally drawn references or written descriptions.

  • A few minor edits are allowed with no charge (EX: small color changes, small fur edits) however I will stop taking edits requests after 2 separate rounds are made. Major edits will have extra fees included. If a glaring mistake is made on a commission that is an error on my part, I will fix the error with no extra charge as it was my fault. (EX: drew the character as the wrong species)

Corruption Split Society Dystopian Society vs Nature Dark Fantasy 18+

In the aftermath of “The Rift”, society became split into two due to the growing fear of the new Moakaas and the treachery of the siblings. Raynixes without magical abilities sought refuge in the safety of civilizations while those gifted with magic were exiled to brave the untamed wilds of Athrea. In the current day, the consequences of these choices linger like a tainted wound. The system that emerged in response to past trauma has done nothing but foster a dystopian battleground plagued by fear and death. Each and every Raynix, whether gifted with magic or not, find themselves forced to take action for the chance of survival.

Restoration

A singular event has set in motion an chain reaction, ensnaring not only the group of Raynixes responsible but also their descendants and numerous others in a loop. Among the trapped, one Raynix who has been in the cycle since childhood encounters the descendants of the cycle's originators, finally presenting an opportunity to escape its clutches. As the scattered pieces of this chain come together, the long lost truth of the past begins to surface. Now united they strive to find a way to break free from its grip, hoping for the chance to heal or stop it, even if it means embracing death to prevent it from happening once again.

Alteration

Athrea has been governed by like-minded Raynixes for countless generations and while some of the Raynixes in power have started to falter, the majority remain the same. Any deviation from the established order is met with death, a clear message enforced by the Union that instills pervasive fear in society, rendering them powerless. Finding himself with a high status as a newly made Niesh and locked into a royal bloodline that can't just be replaced, one young Raynix manages to start the tiniest ember of resistance within Athrea which quickly explodes into a blazing fire. Gradually those who were forced into hiding emerge, finally uniting as a formidable force. The long suppressed Revolution has returned and this time, they refuse to be silenced.
