Submitting an old drawing from my former account.
Made in 2004 as the signature shows

My previous statement: "Have you ever felt something softer that the touch of feathers? I wanted so much to touch that swan but I couldn't reach him. That thought haunted ever since, until I draw this."
This was the first drawing I have ever done of my OC Mavelle, unknowingly. Originally a simple concept of a black haired woman patting a beautiful swan in a pond (an opportunity that I missed, being swans shy creatures), the vision got stuck in my mind and it would come back to haunt me several times afterwards. Ultimately a story started to emerge and altough this is a secondary character, I ended up using her name for my artist name and characters in several games years later.

Mavelle was not originally a human. She was a swan, turned into a human due to the pity of the gods for her feelings over a man. As a human, Mavelle still has the features of a swan, like the black eye mask and the wings, too small for her to be able to fly. (Her swan features weren't present here yet, tough I've soon found an excuse for it in my story). She sings beautifully. She has become the Queen of Monai, the kingdom of Air and the mother of the current generation of the rulers of that kingdom. Her story and physical evidences of it led to a cult in her honor, something that clashed with the main cult in honor of the Alicorn god, Kirin. External motives from Taine, the kingdom of Fire, would conspire to set up the different religion factions against each other and start a civil war in Monai.
