[Original Character] X'anven

Various pieces of art of my OC, X'anven.

He was initially designed as a side quest-giving NPC character in an RPG Maker game I had plans to work on back around 2014/15, but never took to. He grew on me and became an important part of the project, and is my longest standing OC.

The game was originally titled 'Warped!', but now it's called 'Celestial Needle'.

The story centers around a Russian cosmonaut who was caught off course in a space ship, and gets sucked into a black hole. He ends up surviving within a different dimension known as the Seam, which is where all tears in the fabric of space time lead, such as black holes and worm holes.
Eventually, the cosmonaut meets X'anven and discovers the larger, darker history of this mysterious realm while trying to find his way back home. He ends up caught in the middle of an inter-dimensional conflict between a colonizing, militaristic cult known as the Order of Space and the Seam, who eradicated the rest of X'anven's race.
It's the cosmonaut and X'anven's job to work together to end the invasion of these cultists by finding a mythical artifact known as the 'Celestial Needle', a kind of technological marvel that is capable of closing shut rifts in reality...
