There are tons and tons of great mythic stories in the world. One of the ones I have always found to be interesting, though I know very little about them, are the Russian myths and fairy tales. In particular Baba Yaga and Koschei the Immortal. I found these pictures online from Amok Amokov.

These pictures really capture what I think the Russian fairy tales should look like, or at least how they should be in my world.

I certainly like this version of Elena the Fair, certainly worthy of the title Queen of Summer.
AWESOME pictures! I am SO gonna use these pictures for some NPC's in my next upcoming campaign (set in the Lost Lands, but that's another story). So thanks for this post!
