An alternate universe version of Altaani Qalli and Farencault Bresonnaix as space pirates in a vibrant star system, under attack from four different species of alien creatures and surrounded. Both of them are dressed in hi-tech garb and brandish glowing great swords at their enemies; Altaani is bellowing in challenge while Faren has teeth gritted in concentration. The four species are represented by a tentacled Other One, a Zaghnal, a Vanara and a downsized version of the Ultima beast, all regarding or lunging at the pair.

Au Ra April 2026 - 8: Stars

The most feared pair of space pirates in the Etheirys sector find themselves surrounded by extraterrestrial fang & claw during a brief stopover on a local planet.

(this shot is AU/non-canon! FC has joked about sci-fi AU lately :})

A portrait of Altaani Qalli at night, with her blade drawn and held before her, its winged hilt partially obscuring half of her face.

Au Ra April 2026 - 7: Blade

The Shrike's blade has played many roles, past and present—that of a prison, an executioner, a liberator. Her cherished steel is as much a part of her as her song.

#AuRaApril #AltaaniQalli #ShilohPosing

A vertically aligned portrait depicting Altaani Qalli and her mother, Ankhbayar Chaghan. Each occupies half of the portrait where it is split down the middle through their face and bodies - Altaani is on the left, and Ankhbayar is on the right in perfect symmetry.

Au Ra April 2026 - 3: 'Portrait'

For what is a daughter but an echo of her mother?

#AuRaApril #AltaaniQalli #ShilohPosing

A younger Altaani Qalli wrestles with a stubborn dzo on the Azim Steppe, arms around its horns as she attempts to redirect its course. The dzo regards her with an air of challenge in its eyes.

Ditto, but from a front on angle, dzo on the left and Altaani on the right.

A closer angle of the first shot.

Au Ra April 2026 - 2: 'Horns'

A young Qerel woman's hopes at assisting the dzo herders are challenged by a clashing of two equally stubborn wills.

#AuRaApril #AltaaniQalli #ShilohPosing

Altaani Qalli, seated in a tavern environment with a lit pipe held between two fingers. Smoke emanates from the pipe and from between her fangs. Her expression is a lopsided, toothy smirk with eyes upon the viewer, contrasting her severe features.

Au Ra April 2026 - 1: Introduction

The Xaela seated before you with pipe in hand looks menacing, but her song is pleasant as she addresses you,

"♪Come to hear my tales all the same as the rest of them, have you? Take a seat, then, and listen well..♪"

#AuRaApril #AltaaniQalli #ShilohPosing

A Hollow Knight-esque reimagining of Altaani Qalli. Her figure is akin to a draconian, bipedal arthropod with a tail, horns and wicked talons, with cracks of lifeblood/plasmium seeping through her chitinous carapace. A long, furred cape wreaths her shoulders, while silver hair spills from her head. She wields a greatsword emblazoned with butterfly-winged shapes and plasmium vines.

everyone needs to stop what they're doing RIGHT NOW and look at HK-ified altaani by @frogtax.bsky.social!!!!! truly one of the most wicked awesome pieces of art i've ever received, i'm obsessed

#AltaaniQalli

A meme of Altaani Qalli and her wife-to-be, I'za Nitash, which is captioned 'do u think catgirls elongate when u pick them up like,'. In the first panel, Altaani is standing behind an alert, regularly-sized I'za, her hands beneath her arms to begin to pick her up. In the second panel, Altaani has lifted I'za from the ground and is looking at her with a bemused expression, while I'za looks grouchy, her torso and arms having elongated as she's picked up. Her tail is Very Poofy.

#ShilohPosing #AltaaniQalli

Altaani Qalli, dolled up in deep red Christmas ribbon. Strategically placed boughs of mistletoe are looped around her horn, above her breasts, and above her crotch. She looks rather surly and displeased by the viewer voyeuring her predicament.

Ditto, but an angle focusing more on her displeased expression.

Ditto, but focused on the ribbon and mistletoe.

More of a landscape angle.

She's a little tied up at the moment...

#ShilohPosing #AltaaniQalli

A shot of Altaani Qalli, posing elegantly in a dress of silver and dark blue, in front of a vast sea of stars. Her eyes are closed, and her expression is melancholic.

#ShilohPosing #AltaaniQalli

A shot of Altaani Qalli, nude and framed by blue flowers. She scowls at the viewer, as if they are intruding upon her sanctuary.

#ShilohPosingNSFW #AltaaniQalli

this meme was a lot of fun! i got to do some real character deep diving to fill every slot for both of my gals, but I think it paints some pretty vivid pictures of what they're like as characters!!

#SayaKaisuri #AltaaniQalli

A younger Altaani, a Xaela warrior, faces off against one of her tribemates in a good-natured bout of Azim bokh at dusk by firelight; his expression is a challenging grin, as he looks forward to their tussle. Her colossal tail frames part of the shot and the two's bout, calling attention to the prompt.

Au Ra April Day 23: Tail

During her days in the Qerel, Altaani was known as a bokh wrestler of fearsome renown, at least in part owing to the strength of her mighty tail. Seldom did she turn down an invitation - and seldom did she fail to claim victory.

#ShilohPosing #AuRaApril #AltaaniQalli

Altaani, a Xaela warrior who bears the moniker of the Black Ram of the Steppe, stands with sword in hand, surrounded by the form of the beings who have called her soul home. Solace, a cherubic child whose head is surrounded by a halo of swords, prays for the protection of her and her host against the reaching hand of Scorn, a covetous demon, and the silver whisperings of Sonata, an angelic presence.

Au Ra April Day 20: Soul (free choice)

The soul of the Black Ram of the Steppe has known many facets over the years... some, more covetous than most.

#ShilohPosing #AuRaApril #AltaaniQalli

Altaani, a Xaela warrior, and Farencault, a Duskwight knave, have their backs to the wall in the depths of an underground ruin, and are snarling in defiance of an unknown assailant. The scene is monochrome (black and white), interspersed with splashes of red in artistic bloodstains on the frame and across their faces.

Au Ra April Day 18/19: Color/Monochrome

Not all siblings forge bonds in bloodshed, but those that do understand the weight of the steel they carry more than most.

#ShilohPosing #AuRaApril #AltaaniQalli

Altaani, a warrior of the Steppe, sprints across its wide open fields beneath the powerful wingbeats of her dark-feathered yol, Qara Arslan. The sun bears down on them both from a vast, clouded blue sky.

Au Ra April Day 17: Sky

There is no freedom Altaani knows more than that spent beneath the wide blue expanses of the Azim Steppe's sky.

#ShilohPosing #AuRaApril #AltaaniQalli

Altaani, a dark armor-clad Xaela warrior, sits amongst a flowering span in a starlit dreamscape; her hand is raised to allow a bright blue starbird to perch upon her gauntlet. At her side, a cherubic child whose head is wreathed by a halo of glowing swords looks onwards with wonder; she is Solace, the shape of Altaani's long-lost soul, now reunited with her heart.

The same as the first image, from a closer-up angle.

Ditto, but angled more to show the characters' expressions. Altaani is speaking to Solace, while Solace looks on with wonder.

Au Ra April Day 13: Hope

With the return of her heart's soul after so long spent apart, Altaani oft shares moments in the dreaming with Solace, regaling her with tales of the wonders of the waking world.

#ShilohPosing #AuRaApril #AltaaniQalli

Altaani, a Qalli warrior, is seated in a pen of sheep, playing a morin khuur and gently singing to them. Three adorable sheep are present; a white ewe dozes off to the sound of the music, while a white ram and black ram endearingly converge on Altaani as she serenades them.

Au Ra April Day 12: Melody

Of all of the tribes who choose to rear flocks of sheep upon the Steppe, it's often said those who belong to the Qalli are amongst the happiest, treated to song and serenade with each rise of the sun.

#ShilohPosing #AuRaApril #AltaaniQalli

Altaani, a tall Xaela woman, stands nude amongst a grove lit by sylphlight, with her lover, I'za, a small Miqo'te woman, cradled gently in her arms. Altaani's lips are parted as she sings a Qalli Heartsong to her beloved, a confession of the heart.

Au Ra April Day 11: Love

The waters of the Hanging Lanturns of the Sylphlands were where Altaani chose to spill the song of her heart to her beloved goldfinch, warbling honeyed promises of a future together forevermore.

#ShilohPosing #AuRaApril #AltaaniQalli

A young Qerel woman, Altaani, is seated on the ground before an iloh, flinching away from the furious rage of her berserker of a mother, Ankhbayar, who is pointing an accusatory finger at her daughter; her axe is drawn in her other hand. The presiding khan, Ganbataar, looks on with a hand over his mouth, considering what to do with his unstable tribemate. Further beyond, an outraged Qerel warrior bears down upon Altaani's position, and the crestfallen figure of Khulan, Altaani's lover, clutches a grieving child close—whose parents were slain by Altaani's twin Darksides in an unwilling massacre.

The same image as the first, but with an 'Echo' filter over top to play into the 'memory' theme.

Au Ra April Day 8: Memory

The memory of Altaani's exile long ago is one forever seared into the deepest recesses of her mind, even despite her newfound status as one of the Steppe's mightiest heroes.

#ShilohPosing #AuRaApril #AltaaniQalli

A tall Xaela woman holds her shorter father close in a long overdue embrace, while a dark-feathered yol looks on with fondness, enveloping the pair with its wing and tail.

An angle focusing just on Altaani and her father.

A closer zoom of the first image, featuring both Xaela and the yol.

Au Ra April Day 4: Family

Of all the reasons Altaani elected to return to the Steppe despite past exile, being able to hold her father again was among the highest of them all.

#ShilohPosing #AuRaApril #AltaaniQalli

A back view of a nude Xaela woman, her massive tail curled around herself. Her rugged scales and scutes are struck through with bright blue levin scars.

Au Ra April Day 2: Scales

Following a harrowing return to her homeland, Altaani can oft be seen at the Hearth's spas nowadays, enjoying the quiet comforts of a clean body and clear mind.
