Hello family, how's the new week going? It's another round of this amazing contest by splinterlands@splinterlands and for this week I chose to recreate Iza the Fanged....

Izza the fanged is a beautiful creature who has no idea about where she came from. All she knows is that she was born with the heart of a serpent and a huge appetite for men, she moves swiftly, with zero noise and almost invisible in the jungle of Azmare.

This amazing woman is one with the jungle, she needs no weapon, neither does she use her fangs or teeth to hurt her prey, this is because of her ability to control thorns, leaves and vines. She drags her victims off to her cave where she decides if they'll be her dinner or plaything.

Iza will prey on anyone who enters her territory. She has a particular fondness for snatching men after peering at them from between the trees, sparking their interest. She grabs them with twitching vines and hauls them towards her cave before striking. The last thing her paralyzed victims see is a dark, plant covered cave, decorated with human bones.
Splinterlands Lore

I started this drawing without reading the lore first like I always do, I found out I'll have to include snakes at some point and this was really hard for me because I'm Ophidiophobic(the fear of snakes) 😨 😟 yeah but I just had to finish it🤷...
