Naga

Part of a series of works for my Final Illustration Project, [DEMIURGE] (on-going)

This is one of the dragons who is master of the weather and the ocean inside the [Hunt for the Dragon Kings] arc, and upon defeat, will bestow the power of thunder and ocean magic.

Character design notes
Nagas are the more common manifestations of the overlords who has eastern blood in their veins. Of them all, the last Naga overlord before the wipeout, is Lord Anouvong, who upon his death, took to the ocean and stayed there ever since, and is known to bring forth storms wherever he gets angry, and swiftly destroy anything that threatens him.

With most overlords of the same bloodline, their power comes from the golden orb at their throats, and to defeat them, one just has to destroy the orb, and if one is capable enough, to take the power released by the orb (which differs depending on what the overlord controls). In this case, the Naga's power is over water and thunder.
