"digital fanart of Essek Thelyss from Critical Role, done in a painterly style with wide brushstrokes. he is depicted as a young-looking slender drow, with lavender skin and short white hair, the curls falling over his forehead.
he is wearing an outfit loosely inspired by Chinese hanfu. it consists of long and wide high-waisted pants made of shiny iridescent peachy orange silk, held up with a dark ribbon tied in two knots, the loose ends falling down the front; a similarly-colored wrapped-front shirt; and a terracotta brown coat with a hood. his arms appearing out of the arm slits are covered in leg-of-mutton sleeves.
Essek is standing against a loosely sketched periwinkle background, lit with a warm rosy light as if from a rising sun. he is carrying a woven basket full of fresh peaches in his left hand, while his right arm is supporting a red and white cat against his chest. he is smiling fondly and looking down at the other two cats gathered around him."
