> Hello readers,
>
> To help bring my story to life I commissioned several artists to draw creatures that exist within my setting. Although I unfortunately lack the resources to commission art for every species, I hope these images will give you a better idea of what Upheaval looks like.
>
> I've also gathered public domain images that will help me in this task. For those that are not familiar with copyright laws, images released to the public domain can be used and modified without restriction.
>
> Note that the art I commissioned will be gradually released over time so expect more images in the future.
Zhulong and Dirge.

These photos should give you a general idea of what some of the creatures look like. Obviously the more fantastical the creature the greater the divergence.
