I was trying to work out how a specific 'important' Shimmera looked and I ended up drawing a completely different one instead! Funny how that happens.
Some selected thoughts I had while drawing them:
- This one is likely from the Minua Paqu/Pack, since they live in an isolated underwater city southeast of the Light Steps.
- There's hints of Gyregan ancestry, but most Shimmera don't really have the means of verifying ancestry so it's more of a speculative field for them. It's kind of like astrology for them in a sense.
- They have soft smooth skin, like a freshwater loach or corydora (but less slimy due to a lack of slime coat ofc).
- Shimmera with pronounced beaks often have nostrils located around their eyes or inside of their mouths.
