This year I decided to take part in the competition Concept Artist RPG8. Hope you enjoy it! You can find more here https://www.instagram.com/ekaterinakuznetsovaart/ there I share some searches, development, and the story
Valerie - the main character and her old friend donkey
Isolated village. There is silence all around and the impression of this place is eerie.
There is something wrong with this lame goat. And this man looks more like a goat than a human.
A man arose in front of her, whose appearance makes it clear: he is the main among these cultists.
The priest fell, and a soul dagger key dropped out from his robes. Touching it, Valerie feels tremendous energy and a surge of strength.
As soon as Valerie takes the priest's key, a huge gate appears in front of her. Opening the gate with a key, the gate turns into a portal, revealing a dark citadel and building a path through the hellish wasteland.
Hiding from guards, she meets a lost soul. Valerie receives a recommendation to "get out of here, otherwise we will both be found."
Suddenly, fast steps were heard at the end of the hallway. Damn it! Valerie is captured by the Demon and his fellas
Valerie was already prepared for certain death at the hands of the Demon, but she was only thrown into the catacombs of the citadel. It is time to come up with a plan to escape from this cursed place.
Keep searching through the halls of the Citadel, she hears a bewitching voice. Looking around, Valerie sees a beautiful woman in front of her. She whispers something in Valerie's ear and she feels weak. No, I can't give up!
Entering one of the random doors, Valeri sees a large space and something bright and glowing in the distance. It seems she came right. At the roots of a thousand-year-old tree stands an obelisk covered with runes.
Having touched it, Valeri feels how the shadows around her are thickening and it becomes unbearably hot. Her consciousness grows cloudy, and the Queen of the Succubus herself appears in front of her!
With difficulty and great effort, but Valerie copes wins. Finally, we can pick it up.
Plunging a dagger into the Book of Souls, everything shatters into fragments and the souls of the missing people break free! But among them there is no beloved Valerie, was it really the wrong village?!
