MZ2_170 Kushtaka

Here’s my Kushtaka card for MetaZoo TCG: Torrential Tides Expansion, developed by Game Qbator Labs 🌊🦦✨
It’s an honor to breathe life into one of the most unsettling shapeshifters of Alaskan lore.

★ Designing Kushtaka, the otter-like trickster spirit said to lure lost travelers to their doom, was both a chilling and inspiring journey.
From the deceptively gentle appearance to the sinister undertones of its legend, I sought to capture that duality: a creature that offers salvation, only to twist it into something far darker.

Huge thanks again to MetaZoo TCG for allowing me to dive into this enigmatic myth and translate it into their universe.
