Description
After creating my new witch character Celeste for a Halloween piece, my character design juices went into overdrive. I started imagining her living in a small town inhabited by supernatural creatures (and some humans) and brainstormed some of those inhabitants. I have haven't named all of them yet but I do have their general personalities.

Top left is an aloof mermaid (specifically a Jengu from Cameroonian mythology) who likes to be ironic, hence why she lives on land and works at a coffee shop. Next to her is a charming fairy loves to entertain. Next to him is a bubbly genie who runs a clothing store and happens to be Celeste's great aunt. Bottom left is a human boy around Celeste's age who diligently works on his family farm to sell produce at the town's farmers market but secretly wants to do more with his life, though he's unsure what. Next to him is an eccentric Rakshasi chef who runs a local fusion restaurant with her family. Next to her is a gruff and wise old werewolf who's the town's sherif, gym teacher, and mechanic, causing many to wonder how he gets enough sleep if any. Lastly is an energetic Yuki-Onna (a ghost-like snow spirit from Japanese mythology) who's one of Celeste's classmates with a passion for sports such as tennis and baseball.

I loved coming up with all of these characters and I might add more just for fun. For now, I'm working on a piece for Thanksgiving.

As always, comments and critiques are welcome.
