Side note: The design shown in the top left is Cassandra's design from the original Pico's School. I just had it there for reference.

Anyways, this is my take on the penilians from the Pico series (hence why I call it "Elis' NG-verse"; it's my own interpretation on NG series and their characters). I was really trying to work on this (as well as a few other pictures shown below) this weekend, so I hope it paid off.

In my interpretation, the penilians are basically the same as canon... mostly. They're more like eldritch abominations in my version though. They also have a cult of theirs who do... let's just say, horrible things to whoever they get their hands on. Thus these next pieces of art go into more detail about what said cultists look like/act like.

These are the penilian cultists. They are mortals who worship the penilians as their gods, even going to far as to kidnap, torture, and sacrifice innocents to them. To put it simply, they aren't friendly to anyone. They also lurk in the shadows, not being spotted by anyone besides the aliens they worship. While Pico and friends haven't come across them yet, a few other characters haven't been so lucky. This next picture is why I added the "blood" tag to this...

And yes, that is Samurai Asshole at the bottom. I wonder if you can guess what this cultist is doing to him, mainly because I will reveal the context behind this one day.

As a bonus, here's a sketch of a penilian cultist with Cassandra and Damien:

Yeah, I really wanted to make a "serious" villain faction here. I'll go more into detail about said villain faction later, but for now, I hope you like the art.
