The Bali myna (Leucopsar rothschildi), also known as Rothschild's mynah, Bali starling, or Bali mynah is restricted to the island of Bali (and its offshore islands) in Indonesia, where it is the island's only endemic vertebrate species.

It is critically endangered and in 2020, fewer than 50 adults were assumed to exist in the wild.

BIRD WIZARD'S BIRTHDAY

A feathered sorcerer and his mismatched love; a cliffside tower and its dozen prisoners; a sumptuous spread and its discontents.

20/2 - 26/2 #dungeon23

A wizard's tower---that's pretty much a dungeon, right? But this one is also an event: a birthday party! There are thieves and drunken guests and politically-inconvenient dignitaries.

Was trying to model Leucops the bird wizard after a Bali mynah. But I couldn't get its profile right? (I'm more used to common mynahs---but that's no excuse, either, because Leucops looks like a chicken ... Oh well.)

Leucops was banished from the sky after he got pissy he didn't get invited to the cool-songbirds club, and he trapped them in magic birdcages.

This one is full of pangolin-folk and termite-folk and stuff like "twelfth bell" instead of noon, because it is set underground, in the cavern of the God-In-Pieces. (Incidentally, this also means the whole party is lit by a constant magic-hour-like light coming from the south.)

But there's so little space in the notebook, and I couldn't rely on short-hands like the day-night cycle, or even human NPCs.

So writing this was finicky. And the text ended up real clumsy.

For example: there's a timeline in there---but it is scattered all over, instead of put in a single list, which would be the more useful way to do it.

Sigh.

At least I liked making the illustration for this. Lost myself in the tiny details: the cushions in the bedroom, the writing desk in the lounge; the frescoes in the ground-floor gallery; the tables and chairs and flags of the party ...

Detail I am most proud of: the little latrine area, with chamber-pots. Because you need a place to piss, at a party!

#dungeon23 thing I loved this week: the visual density and charm and neatness of Quadra. Hope all this gets compiled somewhere; it is too good.

Shooting against the light, the exposure was biased brighter by just 1/3 stop but had need to be brightened further in post. The colour was also a little desaturated and had to be intensified some 40 percent.

It’s wild to me that I am now in a position where I am in charge of some of the worlds most endangered birds and like losing 1 bali mynah would be losing 5% of their total population ljke that’s wild

All the birds I take care of and there’s like 200 in existence
