bluedraggy: This is the Histess - from the 3rd Spyjirra story. AKA Quill-Weave. She's something of a nature goddess and wears nothing but living leaves and moss. And yes, this is modified from Boogs' original drawing. She definitely has nipples. And yeah, her hist glands are prominent obviously. But at least there's some justification for it in the story. Anyway, she must have been on Boogs' mind as he sent me this of QW (as The Histess) out of the blue - so I made sure to color it well. Specifically this is the moment she leaves the Argonian tree-ship and steps onto Elsweyr, ostensibly for a meeting with the Altmer and the Mane - though she has her own secret agenda.

bluedraggy: Oh, I've got a whole made-up biology built up about those. :) They were intentionally added to the Hist's genetic toys (Argonians) to mimic mammaries, but they serve a clear purpose of allowing the young to be given sentience as the Argonians expand farther away from the Marsh and maybe can't get to the Hist to get the sap directly from the trees. Its not a totally original concept by me, others have proposed it more than once. I just ran with it. Mythical biology is fun! I get weirder than that by far.
