Etharia Character Designs

Etharia is a world-building Discord server where people can create their own nations, histories, and cultures. My project focuses on anime and manga, so I decided to create my own anime by designing personified countries based on the server, drawing illustrations and stories, and making cosplays. Throughout the project, I asked my boyfriend (the server admin) and the interested members to send me requests on designing their nations and character information. This section is where I made a book of Etharia's personified nations and how they are represented.

Kanadorika is my boyfriend's nation.

Vizelia is my nation.

Le Mousquetaire et La Servante is a Vizelian (my nation's) folklore version of Romeo and Juliet. This story is about a Vizelian musketeer, Azelio's unrequited love for the Princess's maid, Indí. It took place during the Vizelian Revolution when the working class became disillusioned with the royalty and elite, as the poor struggled and the wealthy ignored them as they continued to live through a life of luxury. Indí, who was very devoted to the Vizelian Princess, sacrificed her life to the angry peasants, as the maid helped her escape during the palace revolts.

Azelio was very well-respected by his fellow guardsmen, and women from around the world fell in love with him. Although Azelio had everything, the only thing he truly wanted in life was to capture Indí's heart.
