In real life, Esteban is a lawyer, but in the world of Tibia, he became known as an artist with great passion, a huge body of work, and many achievements!
Lupus gained most his of popularity through pixel art. He has come to perfection and is definitely one of the best sprite creators known among players. Many of his designs became official fansite items that were introduced to the game!
Below you will find just a fraction of his work:
PIXEL ART

- Black Knight Doll (2014)
- Assassin Doll (2015)
- Dark Wizard’s Crown (2015)

These items are just a small part of his work that you will find in the game. There are many more sprites of his authorship. Take a look at the ones below, because they look fantastic and are certainly worth your appreciation!
The above items were created on the occasion of fansite item contests. However, this is not the end of this player’s pixel art adventure. Lupus Aurelius is a designer of the concept of Demon Boots. The sprite never became a part of the game, but this interesting idea was appreciated by the Tibia community!
After many years, he decided to expand his idea of a Demonic Set with some new graphics: now, in addition to shoes, we can also see armor, a helmet, legs, a shield, a doll, and a ranged weapon! If you are curious about other such projects, be sure to visit Esteban on his social media!
As you have already noticed, this talented artist has designed a lot of items. And what do the monsters look like in his design? Thanks to TibiaWiki.com.br we had a chance to find out!

Lupus is undoubtedly an artist with great passion. As you saw above, the creation of the banner for TibiaQA was also accompanied by a drawing of an owl as an addition to the whole concept. This was also the case with the “Fansite Item” contest organized by TibiaCollection.com! Esteban added an illustration of his sprite, which could be the logo. Pretty impressive, isn’t it?
Each of his contest entries is not only beautiful artwork but also decorative graphics and lettering made to emphasize the style of his designs. Such details and additions make each of his artworks full of passion and commitment.
