Jaheira fanart! "Feral" (Patreon)

Helloooo everyone, bringing you some art of beloved Jaheira on this evening! I really liked her in the first 2 games, and at first I wasn't sure about her coming back for 3, but quickly fell in love all over again! She wasn't quite as close to my heart as Viconia, but I have to admit that Jaheira's tragic story really stuck with me when playing 2. (literally tearing up as typing this- sweet Khalid :( ) It's really incredible to see her story progress over so many years and stages of her life.

I've REALLY been wanting to play with reflective eyes in a piece, and she seemed like the perfect fit. (Sorry Astarion, you will have your day -whoops- night eventually.)

I think that Jaheira is incredibly important for a myriad of reasons, but I honestly just think it is so important to have strong older female characters in games/media. There is a startling lack of them despite the fact that most of us have at LEAST one in our own lives in one form or another. WTF

Jaheira is strong, cool, wise, funny, and the kind of hero I desperately want to see more of in games going forward.

I hope you all are having a lovely weekend so far!! ♥
