NirVanA Bestiary: 02

Description

more creature sketches... although i've been working on these two more than the last...
----------
the Doppelgänger:
literally the german word, "double-goer"... in some traditions, if one's family or relatives sees one, causes illness or danger... while if someone sees their own, portends their death... it's role in NirVanA is a little bit different than it's tales... in NirVanA, only one exists and it can shapeshift into any living thing... it can even morph into multiple objects at the same time and stay in complete control... although it only appears in the final installment, it shows up many times...

the Ajatar:
originally from finnish folklore... said to be "the devil of the forest" and rumored to be the mother of the devil... she can either take the shape of a dragon or a snake and the sight of her can cause the viewer to be ill... in NirVanA, she takes the shape of a snake and is able to communicate with them... she spreads disease causing nearby towns to suffer... she only appears in the second installment, but is mentioned in the first as a goddess...
----------
yup... still need some ideas for more creatures... i know there are literally hundreds, but some don't fit the story of NirVanA...

Nice beasts so far. In a childish point of few from my cousin the doppleganger looks "Like a duckie" personally I don't see it. They both look really nice, though comment for the Ajatar... Ouch that looks like a very uncomfortable living.... biting... bra O_o
