Frequently
Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why
the name: Angelic Empyress?
I chose this name because in my world,
the unverse is called Empyrea and the highest species that
you can be is an "Angel".
How
do you create your artwork?
Well, with detailed drawings I sketch
them by hand, and sometimes ink them, otherwise I use my computer
tablet and go crazy! XD All my artwork is colored in Photoshop
Elements 5.0. (on rare occasions I may try to use colored
pencils).
What
do you do when you aren't drawing or writing?
Playing with my 6 children :D my robots that is! Plus I am also a dancer... currently taking Ballroom and some Bellydance lessons. I am also a Liturgical Dance Instructor.
What
is Astria Legends?
Astria Legends is my baby! It's a series that I've been working
on for eight years now. It in short is the epitome of my imagination!

Whats
with all the Rainbow colors? Are your characters Gay?
Absolutely not! The reason I use the rainbow is because it
is a symbol of the Lord's Promise and it is my way of steering
the meaning, at least for the purpose of my stories, towards
that of the promise and not of homosexuality.
There
seems to be an underlining tone of Christianity. Is this true?
Very True. Who else could The Exalted
One be? *wink*
FAN ASTRIAN DESIGN
Can Astrians be mystic type animals? Of course! All astrians are bipedal anthropomorphic animals, which means they can be based off of any animal, whether it is real, myth, mystic, legendary... etc.
Can more than one Astrian have the same main trait? Definitely. Some traits, objects, etc are symbolic of more than one color, so I would not be surprised if there were more than one Astrian representing them.
Can I just use Black or White? No. No doubt fans should be able to do whatever but if you are going to be in this group with an official fan astrian here, then no. Black and White are VERY special cases when it comes to Astrians, (something very important to the plot of the story), so the answer is no.
How do I figure out my hex #? Each section of colors has a seperate link which goes to a page that lists the colors with thier hex values. Some of the colors do not have hex values listed, for these you can either ask me and I can find it out for you or you can find out. How? take a screencap of the color from link and use the eyedropper tool in your art program that will show you the hex value of it.
DEDICATIONS
I HAVE AN ASTRIAN DEDICATED TO ME. IS THIS ME IN ASTRIA? No. For all purposes the Astrian could have been designed before it was dedicated. And the design/personality/purpose does not change should the Astrian be dedicated. The dedication is just a simple gift of friendship. (think in terms of 'in honor of ___') In other words, you do not own the Astrian or any aspect of him/her.
IF I HAVE AN ASTRIAN DEDICATED TO ME, CAN I STILL MAKE A FAN ASTRIAN? Yes! Your fan astrian would actually be you in Astria. The official astrians i have created are mine to control. Your fan Astrian is yours to design, name and personify. So have fun!
