    This is what a mole looks like if you have a fear of moles. I really like the rhyming designs, and the fact some of these spirits exist in the grey. Whenever there's an attempt to categorize something, there will always be fringe cases and the fact the hunters guild has this built in makes the world building feel familiar and grounded. If it's anything like categorizing the taxonomy of mundane beasts there are definitely petty debates about what type of spirit the Bogart is, and whether there should be a new category introduced just to settle a 3 decades long argument between two renowned archivist type guild members.

    LOVE the wrecker boggart, i think its neck and physic look great though, the long neck and arms lend to the weasel mischievousness of it but still make it look big and imposing. a creature doesn't need a bunch of muscle to look strong, look at creatures like siren head or wendigos, their all thin skeletons yet their strength is never questioned. also love the feeler beard of the wrecker boggart, such a cool design choice.

    Love the idea of a transformed Brownie, I almost imagine it's like a small weasely hulk mode! Wake up and find this horrible four foot weasel in your house, and you've just got to be like "Shiit, I love what you've done with the place man! Yeah, no I hated that photo of my beloved grandmother too. Oh you threw the cat in the lake? No you're right to do that, it's only the middle of winter, and she needed a wash anyway.. Were the torn curtains your idea?" it's just such a great image, I won't lie I'd be terrified to live in this world only because I have the amazing ability to lose things I'm literally holding, my home would be a brownie sanctuary 😭
    I was wondering though, in terms of their actual "biology" (or the spirit equivelant), is there actually a hard line between the Brownie and Boggart, or is that a line drawn for the sake of research? Like, is it that the more frustrated a Brownie gets they may begin to exhibit Boggart features? Or they just have a breakdown and the transformation happens quite quickly? Also, have you considered having some spirits be less animal-like? The werewolf has a thematic reason to appear corpse-like, and of course Brownies appear friendly and cute, but if you're worried about differentiating some of these spirits, maybe have some of them be more like constructs? Maybe living idols of some kind, or creatures made of bundled cloth? Maybe looking into the history of Ents and the Green Man would be a great start for a creature, maybe you could have a unique spin on that? Awesome stuff as always, really inspiring!

      @@BlueBotBlues thank you for the lovely comment, as always. And yes, I’m glad the story of a boggart appealed. They’re mostly goofy creatures and while they can certainly vandalise stuff, they aren’t so terrible as to present any real danger or threat.
      In terms of the transformation. When a brownie gets angry they will exhibit more pronounced features, however the transformation from a brownie in a boggart is a very extreme and sudden change. It’s also not that common, as most brownies just default to swearing a bunch when they get upset.
      And yeah, my plan is start doing some more overtly ethereal feeling creatures with more of a ghostly appearance 😊

    @Gvhx8703 4 дня назад

    I had an idea while watching videos about spirits in that world: they look like a crooked mirror of the thing they consider their enemy. Leans on a theme of "balance" kinda.
    Lesser vampire for example is a clumsy leech that reflects not a human host, but their addiction or bad habit. They show how addiction could suck the joy out of life. Greater vampire on the other hand is a mirror to a bad ruler who sucks everything out of their people. So - a regal leech.
    Werewolves are like that too: lesser one is a reflection of an animal 'cause they fight invasive species. Greater one is humanoid 'cause only humans hunt wantonly (mostly).
    I have some difficulties dragging boggart's design into this worldview. Maybe lesser boggart looks more unkempt and chaotic to reflect a mess that they fight by manipulating humans to finally clean their house while exaggerating its effects. They're also very stealthy to reflect how messy and uncategorized surroundings can subtly decrease quality of living. Antisocial aspect also shows that usually humans are not inclined to invite their friends to a wreck of a home. Greater (or wrecker) boggart is a one man demolition crew intent on obliterating terrible person's safe space: literally by destroying walls and doors while invading and figuratively by being the danger in their home. So they reflect how their evil prey destroys livelihood of others.
    Almost certainly wasn't intended by the author, but was a fun exercise in finding hidden meanings in these designs.
    P.S. Also neat that lesser spirits fight natural (or kinda natural) phenomena while greater spirits specialize on humans and their society.

  • @mi-i-zori

    I really like this concept of a peaceful and helpful being turning into a petty and spiteful one because of someone’s neglect of their household. It kind of makes me think of mental illnesses, where things get worse if you let yourself go, when you neglect yourself and your living space. Would a Brownie still turn into a Boggart if the homeowner was ill, either physically or mentally, and had difficulties in taking care of their home ? Or would the Brownie deem the person in need of genuine help ? Could there be another, even more version of Brownies in this situation, another transformation that is the opposite of Boggarts ?
    I was also wondering. What if, upon discovering that their house hosts a Boggart, or maybe being unaware of it, or not caring, the homeowner moved houses ? Would the creature stay in the house, or would it follow the homeowner ? If it stays in the house and gets new, good homeowners, would it stay a Boggart, or would it be possible for it to reverse into a Brownie and start again ? If it leaves, would it be replaced by a new Brownie ?
    I really like how you make your designs - it might be a cliché question, but where do you get your inspiration from ? I’m also fond of the way each creature shows both sides of humans, the good sides and the bad ones, and the consequences of the behaviours that come from these sides. It’s fascinating. Humans are part of an ecosystem and have an influence on their environment, either positive or negative, and all these creatures share this environment, or come to share it and react to this influence. It’s amazing !
    See you in another video, friend, and may inspiration never leave you !

    a design note. The vandal's jaw is low slung and long, with the eyes closer to the end of the snout than the hinge of the jaw. that fact is normally only seen on creatures that open their jaws particularly wide. The vandal strikes me as a creature, at least from a biological trait analysis, that might eat the home owner if it is antagonized. meanwhile, the wrecker boggart feels equally predatory, but in a differently way. like it couldn't decide whether it wanted to to fight back in self defense or hunt down the homeowner and disembowel them. The thin lanky design of the wrecker is a wonderful contrast from the brownie, in that it feels fast, agile, and with a vaguely draconic head, it's rage is easily telegraphed.
    Still looking forward to the rest of your videos, and your interpretation of dragons, if your world has them at all.

    For the Vandal and Wrecker boggart I can see how a freelancer brownie would become one easily, but is the process similar in Career brownie’s? I can imagine that a Career brownie might become a Wrecker to defend its life, but would it revert back once the fights over or be trapped in this new form? How would a Vandal form work for the Career when it’s always on the move? Since a Boggart can’t complete a Brownie’s original objective are they stuck manifesting until killed or calmed down?
