❀Ghost of the Desert, Star of the Sea ♀ | 19 | ♊ | College Student | Cancer Survivor I go by many names, including Ibeyla, Shadow, Momo and Howl. One day I hope to study living and extinct creatures, and perhaps write a book or two. I have a painful past but a gentle heart; I have stared death in the eyes and walked away wiser. I’ve been told I have a way with animals, am too quiet, think too much and get emotional over things I shouldn’t, particularly when fictional characters and muses are involved. I also have a fascination with feathers and tend to hiss at things that I don’t like. You probably came for the Zoids, or you could just be here for my feeble attempts at humor, I don’t mind. Enjoy the ramblings of a feathered serpent confused about life who is way too attached to certain fictional Imperials.Tumblr (3.0; @ghost-of-the-desert)http://ghost-of-the-desert.tumblr.com/<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/ba07733b89c8118dffda099b00174e2d/tumblr_mgnn7kkBEX1qj6fhmo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://snakefeathers.tumblr.com/post/40587670867/okay-more-updated-design-doodles-of-nasomta-now-i">snakefeathers</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Okay more updated design doodles of Nasomta. Now I have a better reference for her arms and display feathers, and how her feathered crest changes depending on her mood. I’ll try and draw a full body sketch sometime soon. So, she has feathers and fluffy down which has the appearance of fur down most of her body. These colors <em>are</em> accurate.</p> </blockquote>http://ghost-of-the-desert.tumblr.com/post/40601843849http://ghost-of-the-desert.tumblr.com/post/40601843849Tue, 15 Jan 2013 09:54:30 -0500Nasomta<iframe src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F29396373&liking=false&sharing=false&origin=tumblr" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" class="soundcloud_audio_player" width="500" height="116"></iframe><br/><br/><blockquote> <p>Art of War - Anberlin</p> </blockquote>http://ghost-of-the-desert.tumblr.com/post/39703348847http://ghost-of-the-desert.tumblr.com/post/39703348847Fri, 04 Jan 2013 20:30:36 -0500music<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/474623589d130e6e54b5cd3dc0b2db06/tumblr_meuweaihvu1qj6fhmo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://ghostofthedesert.tumblr.com/post/37704020222/the-armies-of-the-shadow-lord-have-risen-those">ghostofthedesert</a>:</p> <blockquote> <pre>"The armies of the Shadow Lord have risen!

Now its time for Sohle the <em>Animavoro Ignisono</em> dragon and her human ‘father’, Zane Taube from my <em><strong>FireSingers</strong></em> storyline. Sohle’s species is actively hunted and viewed as a pest to be exterminated, and dragon hunters are common sights as they kill large numbers of these creatures. They feed on the nectar and sap of trees and flowers, and also on the blood of other creatures using their snake-like fangs. Sohle’s mother was killed by a hunter, and Zane, the adoptive son of a hunter, found her within the kangaroo-like pouch of the mother dragon. Sohle was only weeks old and couldn’t survive on her own, and he couldn’t bring himself to just leave her. So, he raised her in secret and bonded with her. You can learn more about them by visiting <a href="http://shadowrebirth37.deviantart.com">my deviantART</a> and looking at the deviantions marked ‘FS’.</p> <p>The top picture was done by the lovely <a href="http://zinkymomo.tumblr.com/">ZinkyMomo</a>. The bottom three pictures were all done by me.</p> </blockquote>http://ghost-of-the-desert.tumblr.com/post/37288465320http://ghost-of-the-desert.tumblr.com/post/37288465320Wed, 05 Dec 2012 17:56:07 -0500
