Description
EDIT: A more comprehensive look into what this picture means, since my fanworks have taken a backseat. Thought some people might be interested.
My interpretation of Leptys, the Knaaren God from Rayman 3, as he would appear in a knaaren-centric story that I began in highschool and is still floating abstractly around my brainspace but has very little probability of making it on paper at this point.
A wicked and deceptive but ultimately tragic fallen god, cast down from his seat of power as a mighty god of war and the hunt as punishment for his uprising in the earliest days of a savage, primordial world of clashing dreams and nightmares. Now Leptys is an entity existing on an outer plane, a steward of dark and wild places, and a keeper of the dead. Having at last amassed enough power to extend a piece of himself into the waking world, he now uses the physical body of Reflux to do his grim work. Using Reflux, he incites a rebellion in his children, the Knaaren, and ignites the world in war, promising to bring them out of the desert and into fertile, good lands to return them to a place of power. But his pretenses are false, and the knaaren are little more than canon fodder for his true goal: revenge against the god of dreams who cast him down.
But not all Knaaren are on his side.

Such an interesting take on the Leptys. It’s unfortunate it didn’t get to do a whole lot ingame aside from Reflux using its power, but I guess that allows for amazing ideas such as this to be born!
