Mink holds Glacier’s crown. Despite everything, she finds it a beautiful one. She remembers how Glacier held her and made sure she felt safe. Mink wants others to feel the same thing, especially with someone that she loves.

However… Peacemaker considers her Too Kind for someone as terrible as him. To Peacemaker, she’s an angel. A gem that deserves far more than whatever the strawberry can provide.

Princess Mink is always a hugger. She’s strangely like the opposites of the standard Icewing royals, desiring contact and kindness…unless you’re Venuswing. However, if you’re Peacemaker, she’ll never say no to that.

(Paragraph from the fanfic)

Peacemaker is a dragonet that is able to mask himself. He is able to create a version of himself that doesn’t show the guilt and trauma that he goes through, and at this rate, it’s a version he wishes to be. However, it came at a cost. Tell me, if you pretended to be someone you’re not or pretend that you’re feeling something you don’t feel, do your friends that know you truly know you? Are they friends with you or are they just friends with that version of you?

Peacemaker thinks the second part, but how can he show the real him if he can’t even like that part of him?

Regardless, the act of pretending is a twisted tool that helps Peacemaker through the dark parts of the world. Some may call it a necessity.

I imagine Lazuli to stay indoors all the time. She’s a bookworm that doesn’t really care about how she dresses often and hardly goes outside.

Usually, from the outside perspective, she looks quite mean…which could be true as she has quite a short fuse and quickly snaps at anyone who isnt her sister when she gets annoyed. Unfortunately, she doesn’t look as threatening as she thinks. Unfortunately, she resorts to more physical methods, occasionally taking it too far or simply not noticing if she truly hurt someone.

It doesn’t help that she doesn’t like admitting she’s wrong about…anything…

Peacemaker’s doesn’t approve of Coral’s parenting methods when it comes to Auklet. As a good friend, he decided to fix that.

Darkstalker and Peacemaker are so opposite of each other that their relationship with Icewing royalty are very different.

Darkstalker will make Prince Arctic, his father, rip his guts out due to the amount of utter hatred he has for him. It’s a morbid display of power and pride that he relishes in.

Arctic in the beacon of Darkstalker’s hatred that escalates his actions.

Meanwhile, Peacemaker loves and adores Princess Mink. He wants her to love someone that isn’t him, but even still, he likes looking at her and feels better when he knows that she’s safe and sound. Depending on the situation, Peacemaker might even be content with dying via Mink’s talons. He feels that probably deserves it anyway.

Chances are, he’ll probably execute you if you even try to hurt Mink.

Peacemaker has an unusual ability to appear threatening or unsettling no matter what. They say it’s his lifeless gaze.

Black is reserved and serious. He doesn’t bother to play around and would prefer to keep to himself, and I wanted to convey that in his design.

I like the bandana he had in the original human design, so I decided to keep it while adjusting his general outfit and hairstyle.

I imagine he keeps himself covered to cover up a few scars he has due to fights and training accidents he’s been in. He also just likes looking mysterious as well.

An edited version of a chapter artwork.

Peacemaker really finds himself in unusual situations. Case in point, what do you do when your ghost buddy Darkstalker is responsible for the death of the Icewing Princess’s mother(along with attempted genocide of the Icewing tribe), and you’re close with said Icewing Princess?

He tries to stay realistic, but all realism is telling him is that there is no hope. The damage Darkstalker caused has already been done, and Peacemaker is the unfortunate vessel that has to pay all of the price if the reveal ever comes out.

Leaf, to me, is gentle and kind. She has an aura of friendliness that makes anyone calm down, and I wanted to draw her with that idea.

I figured she would have her hair braided, leaving it out in front of her to play with during conversation or when she’s nervous.

All in all, I like at how she turned out.

Peacemaker broke out of his fate, and everything spirals out of control…

When the forbidden fruits begin to endlessly grow

When the lying gardener begins his final show

As the blissful, ignorant tribes start to dance and unite

The artificial dragon's life starts to ignite

But the feeling of emptiness continues to persist

I made this a while ago, and I couldn't resist giving it a Domain Expansion name. I messed around with the eyes, so that's why there are three versions of it. The first represents a more villain-like Peacemaker, the second is Peacemaker before the Clearblade incident, and the third one is the classic PAIS Peacemaker after the Clearblade incident(it's normally completely black, but he's using his ability called "Clearsight", named by Darkstalker).

Don’t you hate it when you’re dead love interest you were previously fated to be with comes back to haunt you? Peacemaker does. It‘s not great.

I imagine Kris to be quite a rebellious person(especially to whatever her ”older” brother says), having a playful and immature personality, and I wanted her design and pose to show it.

She’s a prankster who likes teasing and annoying others for fun.

Her bracelet on her right wrist was made by Silvia.

(In case you’re wondering. I am aware that she looks similar to Ashley from TCOAAL, especially in her face and hair)

Peacemaker in the second half of Peace and Its Shadow really is not doing too well mentally speaking. Dude over here has Darkstalker as his most trusted friend(that he will always have with him till the end).

Powerlessness hurts. Whether it's fate or some other higher power, you could be placed in a position of suffering with no regard for your opinions or desires. You suffer because something else said so, and the lack of choice in it sometimes hurts more than the fate placed upon you.

At this point...I might as well be putting in Peace and Its Shadow artworks that I already have here.

Magic is quite unexplainable, isn't it? But sometimes, it can reach an extent where you'll lose your mind. Especially once you face a threat you cannot remember, and if you cannot ever remember it, you tend to question if it ever even existed.

For Flare, I figured he’d look far more shy and adorable, but when he goes berserk, his hair starts flowing upward like fire, and he loses that former innocent look.

He wanted to have a scarf like Speed, so Speed got him his own which he always wears as it’s comforting for him(represents the fluff around a Flareon’s neck).

Flare’s hobby of gardening makes him constantly wear gloves whenever he works on flowers or berries.
