Forest Samuel props and references - Hole of Losses

Designs for Samuel's equipment. All his stuff is small and was made especially for him, but things like the broken compass and the toy knife aren't useful for his dangerous adventure.

Caegus / Unaeh design - Hole of Losses

Designs for Caegus monsters. Caegus are known as the monsters that can find anything and anyone that's missing. Nothing can escape from Caegus's sense.

All Caegus are born without an expression or mouth (even if they don't need one in order to talk) and when they reach their adulthood (reproductive age is a different thing), their permanent expression appears after the first strong emotion they sense.

Unaeh is a female Caegus, the one that finds Samuel when he got lost on the forest. Even with her inviting smile, Unaeh can be harsh and cold, without changing her happy face at all. There's a reason for her repelent attitude towards everyone, though.

Samuel character development 2 - Hole of Losses

Some simple sprites before reaching the final stage of this character. Curious fact: because Samuel is so small in comparison to other kids with the same age, his mom tends to buy dolls’s clothes and rearrange them for Samuel to wear.

Samuel character development - Hole of Losses

Samuel is a small size 10 years old boy who is visibly troubled with the fact that other 10 yo kids are bigger than him. He knows he's different, but can't find the truth behind himself. Since his foster mom Grelna disappeared misteriously, Samuel has to embark himself into the outside world in order to find her, a place that is not made for his size.
Along the way, he's going to find a lot of answers about his size, and even more stuff he probably shouldn't know.

Arccus flower design

Arccus is the tenth flower from the Obbirek group. Undoubtedly, the rarest one. Arccus is an exotic flower, which number of specimens is only reduced to one. There are no more Arccus in the world than the one in display.

Known by names like the ‘Rainbow Flower’ and the 'Lollipop Flower’ among others, this particular specie doesn’t show any symbol of weakness going through several kinds of weather. It obviously needs water, and the scientifics and botanicals never tried to test the flower’s limits, since there are no more of the same type. The illustration couldn’t show other features so common on other Obbirek Flowers, like its roots, seed, axis or even bud, because of the lack of information and mystery surrounding Arccus.

The aroma changes everyday, and the intensity depends on the weather, adding more enigma to this flower.

Nobody wants to open the axis or the stem, much less remove the earth around it, in order to study the roots and find a clue about what kind of seed belongs to it. The real flower is located in the main hall of the famous museum Oxemmia Rek, a floral museum that treats with thousands of different flower specimens. It receives daily care, such a special fertilizer, soil and pure water and light. Is surrounded by different flowers that have one thing in common: those are neutral weather flowers.

There is a legend from the old period of the planet, telling that Arccus flowers were all over the place and were extremely useful for an extinct native race called Eriamat, since these tiny creatures could use the aroma of Arccus in order to detect an inminent change that was about to come. Scholars believe that the flower is sentient and the way it has to communicate is through its aroma. 

Ettritz flower design

Ettritz is the sixth flower inside the Obbirek group. Known as the 'Daylight Star' because of their behaviour, Ettritzes (plural for two or more) tend to open their petals when light is present, and close themselves at night.

People say there's nothing sweetest than this flower's aroma, a fragant mix of vanilla and soft candies. Ettritzes can grow naturally in caves or shady places, which is seen as an irony, since the flower needs daily light, and can't spend a whole day closed or it will die, eventually.

Some farmers succesfully tried to grow Ettritz on special gardens close to cities and open spaces. Even if the flower survived for more time, a strange mutation occurred because of the constant light pollution the Ettritzes received, turning the petals into a purplish color and changing the aroma. The pistils attract a lot of different insects, from those loved by people, like butterflies, lukop channies, vanntias and ladybugs, but also repellent ones like foloffi, flies and big wasps.

If the flower lose one of its petals naturally, it can grow another one in a matter of hours. But if the petal is ripped off, the Ettritz can die at night, since it can't cover itself properly againts predators.

Aselí flower design

Aselí, known as the seventh flower inside the Obbirek group, is also called the 'Sunset Flower', because of their beautiful colors and the places where it normally grows.

These flowers can be found between the end of Summer and the beggining of Autumn, and they bloom in open spaces, like tall hills and big fields. Aselíes spend all day and night closed, and only open their petals for a brief moment on the sunset.
Their name comes from Aselíanda, which means 'dance' in Attubippu language, and that is because these flowers move gently from side to side when a light breeze blows, like if they were dancing.

People say Aselí's aroma is always different, and varies from person to person. Everybody agrees that evokes something melancholic and bittersweet, like happy and sad memories. If the flower is in it's mature state, the seeds can be safely collected and used to prepare a special sweet dough, often used with bread at breakfast.
