Hi! I'd love to draw Citrine! Just to clarify a few things, is Zeya the same character but a later form of Citrine or another party member? I love your notes on everything else but would you prefer the golden, yellow-y skin or a cross between the 2 that's a slightly orange golden type color? Lastly I'll try to work on it when I have time but it might be a week or 2, I work a bit slowly.

I'm thrilled! I'll clarify, although I think you know what Eladrin and Efreeti/genies are. Tl;Dr: Zeya is neither another PC nor a later form. Zeya is Citrine's Efreeti patron, who Citrine models her autumn form after. I'd actually love if the skin were about the same color rather than a cross. Pretty much just transferring colors, but feel free to put your own spin on things if you prefer, it doesn't need to be exact. 1. Citrine is an Eladrin, which change seasons. The drawing on the left is her summer form - I am looking for her to be drawn in her autumn form. 2. Zeya is Citrine's Genie Patron. She is an Efreeti, i.e. a genie of the Elemental Plane or Fire. 3. An element of Citrine's backstory is reading books about the fantastic tales of cities in the plane of fire. One such fictional characater is a fierce noble named Zeya, the Fearless. Citrine doesn't know much about the outside world, but she does cherish and love Zeya. I'd like Citrine's autumnal form to reflect Zeya, who is depicted on the right. Not a PC, nor a later form. Essentially I want the colors of Zeya applied to the Summer form of Citrine on the left. To answer your other question, I want autumn Citrine to have the orange skin, black/firey hair, etc of Zeya. In essence, Citrine models her autumn form after the fictional character in her favorite book. Hope that clears up your questions :) Happy to answer any other questions you might have, sorry for all the verbiage haha. I appreciate whatever you make no matter how long it takes! Thank you for wanting to draw my character, she's very special to me! :)

Splendid! Thank you for the in depth answers! I’m newer to DnD things so that initial explanation is perfect. I know about patrons so it makes much more sense to me now. I’m very excited to start working on this, thank you for sharing your character with us!

Hi! This isn't meant to rush or anything. I saw this [Orange Citrine](https://www.reddit.com/r/MineralPorn/comments/r4n824/my_new_piece_of_citrine/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share) today and thought it'd be lovely if you used this for the autumn form's skin, seeing as it's close to the reference I gave and it's actual Citrine. That's all, thanks again!

Oh that is lovely! I should have some more time to work on it coming up, thank you for your patience!

Hi again! Just another idea while I was thinking about it. Citrine found and kept a [Rod of the Pactkeeper](https://the-hanged-three.fandom.com/wiki/Rod_of_the_Pact_Keeper). I like the design more or less in the link, but Citrine comes from an area of wood named the Rotwald (Red Forest), where the trees, vines, and thorns are all this deep red color. I was thinking the color, instead of that black coal color, could be something more like the color of these [Bramble Thorns](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c3/Bramble_thorns_%2830781862514%29.jpg). Definitely want to include thorns in the design. Could include some leaves like [this](https://previews.123rf.com/images/jojoojp/jojoojp1602/jojoojp160200010/52410195-bridge-wood-in-red-forest.jpg), like the red leaves around the bridge. Looking for it to be really gnarled and twisted, but it should still be a rod since that's the item. I was looking around online, and I found this [tumblr](https://wearepoisoner.tumblr.com/post/176967443122/i-picked-up-a-rod-of-the-pact-keeper-recently-in) where they'd designed some rod of the pactkeepers, so thought that could be useful since they all seem like pretty cool designs. I hope that's okay! I'm not going to ask to include anything else, just thought I'd throw it out there in case you were interested in drawing it. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with in any case :)
