PA: A Meeting of Manaketes

For
Could people not add or change their manaketes for a day or two? Is that so much to ask?

All of the manakete share the common bond of their extensive lifespans, and the loneliness that comes with it. While it might be awkward at first as their various methods of dealing with other people conflict, if they're sensible they'll try to make connections with one another. And I figure at least one or two of them are sensible, once in a while!

I originally sketched this idea out before Clarice and Sai joined up, so I apologize for them being kind of tacked on. I've convinced myself that this takes place shortly after the two arrived. Clarice, with her lonely preferences, is observing the conversation without joining in, at least not yet. Meanwhile, the topic has triggered Sai's proud, judgmental side, so she's maintaining an aloof distance for now.

Even though Lidia is 3/4 hidden, all six were drawn individually, then sized, colored, and staged in Photoshop. So EVERYBODY gets full body + shading credit on this one! Or not?

...now to just redraw Zardon since he evolved earlier today. Gack.

From left to right:

Silas (and Rory) :
Rae: Mine

Rae's takeaway:
fullbody + shading: 50 exp / 120 gold
simple background: +5 exp / +20 gold
5 extra characters (hey, does Rory count as six?) : +25 exp / +25 gold
TOTAL: 80 exp / 165 gold

All characters are the intellectual property of their creators. I just spent my weekend borrowing them!   
Don't usually make things available for download, but if someone really likes how their character came out, go for it. ^.^ I can also post individuals if their creators want.
