Skirk's release

News of skirk's release was partially excited and partially disappointed. Fans are excited for more Childe lore, as he is particularly popular and beloved, however, Skirk's design, which is pastel and "fairy-like", is not so well received. This has sparked a set of redesigns or reblogs of old skirk art - usually as a more battle-weary, scarred, and muscled lady. Some of the more notable are the following:

• comic An Encounter by Viria (drawn pre-release)
• Redesign by Cawie-chan
• "Here’s MY real abyss mommy" by @maylingorange on twitter (black hair)
• skirk fandesign :)))) by chernkii on tumblr
