Well, the votes are in, may I present,

Lady, the Giver of Life

And she’s done! Meet our forest guardian goddess, Lady! she’s the one who has given life to our forest guardian friends and will do anything to protect them, she focuses more on those below the mountain

(this will be my last post for a week as I’m off to Greece for a holiday :3)

Gift for @sandgambler of Thomas, inspired by their drawing of what he would look like if he was a forest guardian. Go check out their blog!

Is diesel10 in your forest guardian au? If so, what is he like?

And we are introduced to Thomas’s co-worker, everyone give a warm welcome to Mr. Darryl Tenpenny, more commonly known as Diesel 10.

Sometimes the mountain creatures like to hang around Percy. He’s not really sure why but perhaps it has to do with him looking the most similar to them, despite being so much larger

Another forest guardian to go with Percy, this time it’s Henry. I think him being green and being big kinda makes him the gentle giant, the one with the magnificent antlers n stuff, almost like an Irish elk

Some Edward x James angst, cause an idea came to me after I drew a realistic forest guardian Edward, so enjoy :3

Only Rusty can climb up trees. It makes a great place a to nap and to pounce on unsuspecting prey.

Here’s our first actual look at Rusty in the forest guardian au! They’re different from both our main creatures and the mountain creatures, but they’re just as friendly

Direct follow up from my last animatic post cause @steam-beasts asked a very important question

And the answer is, his memory is fading. Soon he will simply be a husk, wandering the forest with only the muscle memory of where to go, unable to recognise those around it.

It’ll no longer be Edward.

And here’s the lovely forest guardian Edward (partially designed this way to match James)! He has summn to do with the moon, and he’s been a forest guardian long before the others even came along.

Super majestic and kind and caring, and as pretty as the moon itself

Please tell me, can they kill someone with their horns?

I’m gonna hand this over to Edward to explain

Just a lil James x Edward thing for my forest guardian au, they’re so in love your honour

I made them like the sun and moon for this exact reason, the lovers who only get to see each other so often, night and day, sun and moon

And here is Duck (and also Oliver) as forest guardians(?)! They’re very different from the ones we’ve met already, and they never hang around the forest for longer than they need to.

gave them retractable arms to spice things up and they will willingly eat humans, yet no forest guardian seems to know their roles… almost as if these guys aren’t even guardians,,,

Height chart of Thomas next to the main steam team forest guardians, Thomas is 5”9 for reference and Percy is the size of a horse also for reference

yes, Henry is taller than Gordon but he usually looks shorter due to keeping his head lower, James is also shorter due to keeping his head lower. Duck is surprisingly bigger than Percy which makes Percy nervous, and Edward is just happy to be there
