Not bad, though it took me reading your description to figure out who they were. Isn't it amazing how reliant we are on signature cloths or hairstyles in order to recognize someone?
So...his name is literally Sans Title? I thought it was just an expression meaning he didn't have a title to go after his name. How does that naming thing work, anyway? Does 'Sorit' mean anything specific?

For real, not even just clothing, but colors make a huge difference too. Not to mention I'm always stuck in a 'same face syndrome' with certian characters. Hoping I can pull this into PS and really clean it up and make them more distinct beyond the 3 by 5 index card sketch it was scanned from.
Namewise, Asini have two name, the one they are given at birth, Rike and Sorit in this case and the formal title, which use to be taboo to use publicly. Using that formal title is a bit of a taboo, and Sans Title uses his (formal title) lack of name over his given name as a bit of a middle finger to tradition, while Sorit sticks to only his given name.

Oh yeah, can't forget the colors! 'Same face syndrome'? I get a general idea of what that could mean, but would you mind elaborating.
Ah, that makes sense. Certainly explains why something about how Rike was addressed would leave me puzzled.
Thanks for explaining!

SFS is basically where artists get too comfortable with a very similar look to how characters are drawn, it's not a bad thing as everyone does sort of a have a set facial structure they use, but having more variety is always good.

Good, yes, but can be a little difficult to manage. We are all creatures of habit, after all.
