Wüllhelm (All tomorrows' killer folk OC)Here we are, at the predator and prey world's equivalent of the late middle ages.
In this painting, Wüllhelm, an explorer from an empire that's kind of inspired by the Slavs, Vikings and all, is standing in a foreign landscape, in the tropical peninsula (it looks like it's foggy because it is indeed), while holding a Hük, a hat made for protecting your eyes from the sun.
He just came there with his exploration party, obviously to explore and find interesting things; such as new purple gold settlements (which they call “Fōre”, the material of his cape's pin), peculiar plants (such as the “Wing trees” behind him), but especially the natives. This population is divided in tribes, all of which practice numerous human sacrifices and slavery (y'all get the reference).
He'll end up taking shelter in one of the tribes' abandoned hut, and come across a girl... A girl named Aktlihui, who used to be openly stubborn to her tradition, yet ended up being abducted by that tribe's chief and used as living statue to be admired from her small cage, or as an animal for tracking prey

Anyway, returning to Wüllhelm, he may look like he might steal a Selkie's pelt (he'd only do that to wear it, not to kidnap them), but he's a soft guy inside... Of course, he's just good at hiding it...
