Tarranon:

The sun rises over a rolling landscape of rivers, checkerboard plots, and embattled denizens of Skaia. The allure of battle hangs heavy over the fear of death.

Tavia Morra:

I mimicked a typical art deco floral tiling (you usually see it in wallpaper designs) but with blood in one and reused the tiling idea on the loading screen. I find the same sort of amazement and calmness in the compositions of the art deco patterns that I find in a lot of symmetrical compositions. I like symmetry.
