the first yennefer triss and philippa's outfits are redraws of my old college projects, they were more based on historical costume, so maybe they looks a bit weird. the third ciri's outfit was also for college, but i still like it. the rest are more or less interpretations of costumes from games

We don’t see much of Lytta Neyd except for ‘Season of Storms’, but I really wanted to have fun with her design. The way she’s described with her white dress the first time Geralt goes to her home was really inspiring. I loved drawing the movement, the hair, the hands, and honestly even if she did some debatable things, I like this character. She’s interesting, and she could have been a highly valuable member of the Lodge of Sorceresses. So I decided to draw her the same powerful way I drew the other mages of the Lodge.
Sorceresses as levels of mental illness and general unhinged-ness.
15-Vanielle Of Brugge **Sodden Hill fertiliser** : a rather well adjusted person. Unless Stregobor is in the room, she's perfectly fine.
14-Coral **SKEEEELLLIIIGEEEE**: anyone who sleeps with Geralt loses one point in mental stability and in olfactive awareness.
13-Nina Vivero **Underrated Rita-sitter**: homegirl lost mental stability after being around Rita, who absorbs mental health as fast as alcohol.
12-Book Francesca **Emergency Plan B**: stopped giving a shit last century ago. The lodge is quickly making her unhinged.
11- Tissaia De Vries. **World's Number** **Mommy Issue Provider :**Very well adjusted until Yennefer happened. Also, after spending decades with Rita and raising Conspiratory Owl Girlboss, she lost points.
10-Ida Emean Aep Sivney **Elven Stoner** : she knows too much. Has seen too much. Lost mental stability upon hearing
Sabrina for the first time.
9-Yennefer Of Vengerberg **Die, Cry, Hate mom**: gives zero shits, constantly running from problems she caused, only to cause more. Needs therapy.
8-Sheala De Tancarville **The** **Koviri Boner**: poor introvert forced into constant social situations with extroverted, nymphomaniac sorceresses with one braincell and death wishes. Needs a xanax and vodka.
7-Speaking of, KEIRA METZ, **the OG MATERIAL GWOOORL**: constantly complaining, unhinged little gremlin with a knuckle duster and endless lust. Queen shit. Turns into an angry mess whenever bed bugs are in the vicinity which is fair and understandable.
6-Assire Var Anahid **Milfgardian Pussy Lover**: girl you are GAY. She needs to come to terms with that.sapphic mess.
5-Fringilla Vigo **Nilfgardian Clown**: ma'am you are also very bi and very much into every member of the lodge. Lost so much mental stability points after clowning for Geralt. Seriously, called out another woman's name during sex, and you're still simping? Get a grip.
4-Triss Merigold, **Crème Brûlée** : a disaster on all fronts. Chronic gaslighter, thinks with her vagina and needs to get ahold of herself. Has clowned for Geralt of Rivia, most of the lodge and most notable the world's most sociopathic owl.
3-Margarita Laux-Antille **Alcoholic Bisexual Disaster**: there is something deeply wrong with her. Love her for it. Simps for men, has the smarts to know it but cannot help herself. Needs ten new livers and so much therapy.
2-Sabrina Glevissig **Kaedweni Kebab**: local homophobic racist is in fact a gay mess and very much into elves. Needs to get her head out of her arse, go to therapy and might need to be restrained. Her willingness to commit acts of unspeakable violence with Keira Metz automatically puts her on the naughty and most wanted lists.
1-Philippa Eilhart LESBOMANCYY: all hail the queen of mommy issues. Needs therapy and imprisonment. Is a threat to the continent, gaslights and Girlbosses every day of her life. Throws up pussy-scented pellets on her foes-- keep slaying but also please confront your issues.
What if Coral survived to attend the Thanedd ball~ 🐠
*bows apologetically* I intended to post this fully colored but my physical health is still so-and-so. It will happen, but probably not in time for the event! Until then, I offer you the lineart! As always, free to color for those who wants to have a go :3 transparent png below the cut!
...... Neither. When it comes to ginger haired love interest, I'd pick this beauty: Astrid Lyttneyd Ásgeirrfinnbjornsdottir.... Coral. Look at her! No wonder Geralt cannot keep his hands to himself!
Sapkowski's obsession with scents is no secret. But he did't take arbitrary combinations of smells without any ulterior motive. Or did he?
Even if you take a textbook example, lilac and gooseberries, you can speculate a little. This is a very unusual combination, although there is nothing unusual in the components themselves (you can easily find both in any garden in Eastern Europe). However, it is impossible to create a perfume with such an aroma in a natural way or with traditional methods. There is no lilac essential oil, no lilac absolute. All lilac notes in modern perfumery are obtained thanks to synthetic compounds. I suspect the same goes for gooseberries scent
I have no doubt in Yennefer's ability to achieve the impossible, as well as in Sapkowski's ability to create with a couple of words an image and a fragrance that is inextricably linked with it.
Fringilla's amber and rose is kinda funny, because this is literally Chanel No. 5. Little black dress, short hair and so on in the same fashion. Unfading classic for some and banality for others.
In the case of Coral, the original exoticism and costliness of her tastes are emphasized, which over time became widely available (well, almost). This is directly indicated by a tattoo with a scalar, indirectly by a freesia in the pyramid of her perfume. In reality freesia comes from Africa, specifically from South Africa. And nearby is the Cape of Good Hope, which again emphasizes Lytta's passion for navigation. But in the course of Season of Storms, Geralt literally picks freesia from a random flower bed. It turns out that these flowers have long been brought to the North and successfully cultivated, making the claim to be unusual somewhat outdated.
I think you can easily guess where this is going. Philippa Eilhart, spikenard and cinnamon. Both incense are incredibly ancient and just as incredibly expensive. One could sprinkle oneself with golden sand with the same success. Again, very exotic things for nominal medieval Europeans. But why this particular combination? Everyone is well aware of the smell of cinnamon, but with spikenard it is more difficult, it still justifies its high price by its comparative rarity. Under what circumstances Sapko could smell it?
Despite this, Coral does not change her signature scent (also it's actually Aqua Allegoria Foliflora by Guerlain)
A garden locked is my sister, my bride,
a spring locked, a fountain sealed.
Your shoots are an orchard of pomegranates
with all choicest fruits,
henna with nard,
nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon,
with all trees of frankincense,
myrrh and aloes,
with all choice spices—
a garden fountain, a well of living water,
and flowing streams from Lebanon.
The Song of Songs of King Solomon, which Sapkowski, of course, loves and respects, because he refers to it in his other book, the Tower of Fools. In the very first chapter, by the way!
It is interesting that Philippa is assigned a perfume that has been associated with sensuality and love since ancient times.
I am too lazy to analyze the iris and bergamot of Tiziana Frevi and even more so to guess a possible Triss perfume.
From tomorrow to October 31st, I'll post a little drawing each day of a character I love who is a milf or gives milf/dilf vibes. (Or just I wanted to put them because I like them and shush)

The glowing moon and the shining stars crowned her in stardust and moonlight, they bathed her in glory. The gods assigned her a doleful destiny, entrusted her with a duty that would demand everything. The passing of time lapped at the shore of her until she transformed into a myth, a legend, a story, a queen who had no subjects and no kingdom, a sorceress with no magic, a child with no family. And through it all, the only things that kept Selene standing were the ghosts haunting her, the memories of summer days spent in the sun and the promise that the end would be as sweet as the beginning had been.

Drizzt did not pry further. The encounter perturbed him. The look in Lytta’s eye–Drizzt knew it well. He’d seen it often on matrons and priestesses, that predatory desire when they spotted a desirable male… in Menzoberranzan, it was unlawful for a male to refuse. Thankfully– hopefully– that was not the case here.
Drizzt would keep a close eye on Lytta Neyd nonetheless.
Hi! (´◡`) I see that you do a lot of characters from the books, can I ask if you intent to do Coral? If not it's ok, just curious about your future wip characters
HI!!
She's not on the list for now, but she has been on my mind since i got that illustrated book, so never say never 😅
So If i ever do her she will be based on this illustration :
That said If you want to see a good Coral model in game , Ringkvinna made her a while ago, she's no longer on tumblr but she started uploading her work again on Nexus so maybe she'll re release the Coral mod ! ^^
