Totally forgot to share this a while ago, but I actually participated in a Game Jam this year with a few friends (remotely, of course)! If you don't know what that means, it's an event where you and a team get together and have several days to collaborate on a video game. Not necessarily a full fledged game, but basically a very rough playable proof of concept, and from there people can decide whether they want to take the idea further (plenty of actual video games started as game jam projects), but a lot of the time it's just for the sake of creativity and fun.
The theme was "Lost and Found", so we decided to make an RPG about two characters literally named Lost and Found, and then (to no one's surprise) it was my idea to make them a dragon and a unicorn. Lost the Unicorn, and Found the Dragon. I ended up helping with the conceptualizing, visual design, and did a majority of the artwork and sprites.
This is the initial concept art I did of the the two characters. They're basically bitter rivals who like to hoard treasure and magic items, and are always stealing from each other's hoards. The game itself has you choose to play as either character, and the other character is the boss and the end of a dungeon you fight through. I wanted to design them as if they were actual RPG heroes, and not just plain mythical creatures, plus I just always like the idea of animals and creatures wearing bits of clothing and accessories like humans. I figure the bags and stuff they have help them carry all the items they find for their hoards.
But yeah, if you want to try it out, you can download the game itself here: https://s1xplus.itch.io/lost-wanderers-wand
Honestly, despite how rushed the final result might be (hey, we only had 5 days!), it's one of the coolest things I've been a part of.
