"A soothsayer foretold Sirutaq would find fate at the Heart of the Desert."--The Tale of Al'Marum'ni - The Shahirza are a long running and ever evolving race in my various worlds. I was first inspired by the creatures in That Game Company's game Journey to create a silk-based, desert race of vaguely spider-people. Always seers and associated with weaving fate, this latest iteration is more spider than any of my previous, with velvety carapace and all. While not yet, I hope to feature them in a future game. And of course, they exist in my infamous world letters. Ask me anything about my world building! I'll make sure I have an answer for everything! - #worldmap #worlddesign #worldbuilding #womenwriters #writersofinstagram #spider #spiders #spidersona #spidey #spidersofinstagram #desertlife #desertvibes #visdev #visualdevelopment #worldguide #gamedesign #gamedev #lore #fantasyculture #fantasyartwork #gameworld #gaming #gameart #gameartist #gameartists #artistsofig #digitalart #sketch_dai...
