Throne of Leanansidhe

A set piece for an upcoming story arc that I will be running.

This throne is the centerpiece of the throne room of the Leanansidhe -- the Dark Muse. She is an archfey who seduces artists, inspiring them to create incredible works, and feeding off of that passion and creativity.

I wanted the throne to be very lush, but also very organic, as if the gold-veined branches that formed it had grown out of the forest floor. Leanandidhe has a taste for the luxurious and the showy, which is why I used the fan of a peacock's tail as the base of the design.
