"A hound warrior whose great size belies a warm heart; Mari is the leader of the Kairang, a nomadic army who keep the peace on the plains that border the northern lands and the eastern city of Taichun. As the Khan, Mari has sworn to uphold the ancestral promise of the Kairang and provide safe harbour for those who join their ranks, which has earned the ire of the subterranean kingdoms of the Dokkr, whose goblin servants occasionally escape from captivity to be a part of the more egalitarian Kairang."
It's been so long since I've painted a horse, let alone something with a person riding horseback. Mari is an old character of mine that's the latest part of my drive to update and paint a piece of each character I've created for my OC world, Thormundar.
