Koschei The Deathles as an immortal king, seated upon his throne. The jewel-like egg embedded in his chest represents the source of his eternal life, while glowing threads connect him to an army of light-born rabbits under his control. His needle-shaped blade symbolizes the fragile secret behind his immortality, blending Russian folklore with surreal fantasy aesthetics.

Sirin this character reimagines Sirin as a celestial half-bird woman singing upon the branches of an ancient beach. Adorned with a modified traditional Russian dress, crown, halo, and ornate jewelry, she embodies both divine beauty and haunting melancholy through surreal fantasy elements.

Zhar Ptitsa This character reimagines the legendary firebird through a fantasy inspired design with ornate clothing and radiant flame like details.

post

Leshy Inspired by Leshy from Slavic folklore, this character reimagines Leshy as a mysterious guardian of the ancient forest. Surrounded by natural and surreal fantasy elements, the design blends organic details, dark woodland aesthetics, and an otherworldly presence to portray a being that exists between nature, myth, and illusion.

post

Kikimora this character reimagines Kikimora through a darker and more surreal fantasy approach. Featuring horn like elements, a sharp mask inspired by traditional depictions, more like assassin princess in a party group medeival.

Domovoy As a small elderly guardian carrying a broom, in front of warm fireplace. Could be a grandfather for children who don’t have that (maybe).
