Fanart of the Ikati from C.S. Friedman's Magister's Trilogy.

My not-very-accurate take on her unique beasts.

From what I can remember from the books, they had insect-like wings, multiple pairs of them.

They had talons, but not sure how many pairs of legs they actually have. (I just gave them 2 here, since I was running out of space to put legs!)

Long whip like tail with a spike on the end.

Triangular snake-like head. (I just went for the regular dragon heads here)

Insect eyes (Too small to see here! XD)

iridescent scales all over their bodies.

Spikes on their backs.

I finished reading the last book in the series about a month ago... and I can't recall how many legs they had either :o I don't recall Ms. Friedman stressing the how-many-legs as much as how pretty they were in the light, the bug-like wings, and how utterly vicious they are outside of the Wrath. Beautiful take on the Ikati, you've definitely caught their ferocious nature to a "T" :love:
