New Eyecandy (Update 5/?)

[glimpse]

AWW YOUR WELCOME, COUGY! I'm glad you like it!

Lol, you're so sneaky at chess! We should totally play online sometime! It'd be SUPER FUN! (:

Ohhh Dolly! I like it because it sounds like 'doll' and since she's a zombie, it totally fits [plus it's extra cute!]

I'd really LOVE to know the backstory behind Anthem and Ro and Cranberries! :O It sounds really interesting!

[Cougati]

K!
We should! :0

Here you go:

Anthem and Ithea (who you have already seen, my avi and all that) are sort of in love. Kinda. At any rate, they live together and are lovers, buuuuuuut.....they get on each others nerves all the time and fight a lot. Whatever.

Ithea is sterile though, and she wants kids. So, Anthem has lots of kids with other women and brings them home for Ithea to take care of. Which she does.

All in all, he has eight kids, Charlie, Cyan, Gavin, Keir, Dumas, Kaite, Anthem Jr, and Ro. Out of those, only Keir and Dumas have the same mom, since their twins. Uh....

Yeah. Anthem's a bit of a man-whore. Anyway...

Then Ithea gets killed trying to kill her twin brother who's a complete nutcase, and Anthem dies about six months after that. Which is actually impressive, because his race don't have very long life spans. And 10 years is a long time.

Ithea's friend Sonya takes care of the kids, since they're all still little. And they eventually wander off to join the world. Ro does this at about 14, and ends up being attacked by some bandits. And rescued, for some unknown reason, by Cranberries. He ends up protecting her for years, and then they get married. He does have a human form, but I never want to design it, because his nonhuman form is so awesome.

Anyway. That's the bare bones of the story. I left a lot of stuff out, but this post is long enough. XD

More new (or rather old) art. Be warned. This picture is sort of fail.

http://cougati.deviantart.com/art/Family-Portrait-122783800

My character Anthem, his "wife" Ithea, and Anthem's kids.

The kids, from left to right:

Anthem Jr., Gavin, Charlie, Ro, Dumas, Cyan, Keir, and Kaite.

Also in the picture are Sahr, a dog demon, and Keifer a cat demon. They normally have human forms, but I cheated. Drawing twelve people in one picture is hard.

Yay.

I also left out Ithea's wings because...uh...she has them folded. Yep. So you can't see them. It wasn't because I was lazy or anything. XD

[glimpse]

LOL I believe you about those wings xDD

That was...actually a really good story. I was surprised that they actually DIED [I fell in love with them immediately Y^Y] but it was still super awesome to read and it INSPIRES ME TO DRAW FOR YOU AGAIN BUT SHH THIS WILL BE HUSH HUSH I'm supposed to be working on commissions D8.

Dumas. I love him. I love them all. So creative D::

I just realized I've told you NOTHING about my characters. Well. That's because I don't really have MANY and their stories are not as awesome fleshed out. D8 But one day, Cougy. One day you'll know all my characters and it'll be awesome x)

I was wondering, are Sahr and Keifer adults in their human forms? Or are they youngins?

And 10 years is so short for a lifespan D8 Do any of the kids have that short a lifespan [since they're his kids?]

[Cougati]

Well. I'm glad you love them. They're sort of my babies. All of them (Actually, Charlie, Junior, and Sahr belong to Berlin...) but still.

Sahr and Keifer are adults. They're incubi that pester Anthem and he's just sort of like "Not interest in men go away" but they hang around and act like pets. Originally, they were Berlin and I inserting ourselves into the story, but then we realized how fail that was and just made them characters. XD

Dumas is fun. He's my favorite of the sons. He becomes the first archeologist of like, ever, and discovers lots of things about their world that no one even knew about. He's really fun.

Well, Harkitein are sort of like undead minions. Someone needs to die in order for them to be created. But they only live for as long as their minds can hold together, then they go gradually berserk until they finally just fall apart. Anthem was killed at the age of 12 (actually, he was killed by Ithea, but that's a separate story. And he doesn't remember this, obviously), and even though it's illegal, the town mage thought he would be able to control one. He was wrong. lol. But a lot of people thing that Anthem lived longer than normal because he was male. Most Harkitein are female.

But all of the kids, since they're living beings, aren't afflicted with this. They only have his coloring really, they tend to be whatever species the mothers are, so the life spans depend on who it is. But most of them are long living, for instance, Charlie is a dragon, and Junior and Gavin are both demons, (though different classes, Junior's much higher up on the scale.)

YOU SHOULD TELL ME OF YOUR CHARACTERS. And then I will draw them for you too!

Rather than me just rambling about my really twisted family. Except it's not all that twisted if you leave Ithea's twin out of it. lol.

[glimpse]

OOoo so Dumas is like the genius of the family! AWESUM.

I..I want to make a Harkitein character so badly [sob]

WHAT IS GOING ON WITH ITHEA AND HER FAMILY? HER TWIN KILLS HER AND SHE KILLS ANTHEM. LOL, SHE TERRIFIES ME NOW! But for some reason she just doesn't look evil, yaknow? I'm so conflicted xD Without Ithea's side of the family, they'd totally sound like a normal happy family! But she's too awesome to be ignored! :O

Let me see if I can even REMEMBER any of my characterrrs...

Well, I have a family I just made. But they're SO SIMPLE and NONAWESOME. Except for Football Johnson. He's the father of the family and his name is actually Football. He works at a school and eats meatloaf with his family. SOMEDAY HE WILL HAVE SOMETHING AWESOME AND DRAMATIC HAPPEN TO HIM, AND I WILL TELL YOU xD

[Cougati]

Well, i dunno know. I think the fact that he eats meatloaf is pretty awesome myself. I love meatloaf. Sometimes, nonawesome families are awesome.

MAKE ONE MAKE ONE! Only rule is, white hair, pink/blue/lavender eyes. And uh, they're really strong, good mages, they eat peoples hearts...and...uh...most people think that they're emotionless, but they actually aren't...XD;

Complicated family history time (part of it anyway. Actually unraveling all of Ithea's messed up family would take a long time)!

Ithea's race is pretty evil as a whole. Their only rule, pretty much, is the strongest rule. After that, there's a side note that you can do anything so long as you don't get caught. XD

Anyway. Ithea and he brother are actually half-breeds, and grew up with their mother who thought they were monsters. Especially Ithea. Ithian was just sort of weak and sickly, Ithea had MAJOR temper issues. She was a holy terror. And She killed Anthem for picking on her brother (Back when he was Christoph) Anthem is actually a seperate personality.

And then. Random issues with Anthem, and he ends up killing a lot of people. Low and behold, Ithea meets someone strong enough to actually kick her ass and falls head over heels for him. lol. But her brother developed like, a complex, because of how Ithea was the only one nice to him and how she always protected him and whatnot... So. He becomes convinced that Anthem charmed her in some way, and attempts to force her in order to make her fall in love with him instead. Which is why she has so many issues with him.

Later he goes pretty much completely mad and becomes basically a powerful and extremely evil mage that kills a lot of people. At which point Ithea decides to kill him. And ends up getting killed in the process.

I don't know. Weird things happen with this story. Things develop. Originally, Anthem and Ithea hated each others guts, and Anthem was pretty much her eternal tormentor. I'm not sure at which point Ithian became her brother rather than her lover, or when she fell in love with Anthem instead. Things happen. XD

[glimpse]

Mmmm meatloaf~

I'm going to get started on making one right away, since I already have an idea in mind. But of course it'll have to wait until I'm done studying for finals [NOT FUN] D::

But I swear if that story was written in a book I'd buy a copy and share it with my friends. & I think Ithea's brother just became my new favorite character xDD

[Cougati]

Well, the story itself is complete. I'm editing it right now.

And, MAKE IT. If you do, I'll find a way to put them in the story some how.

Ahaha. Another Ithian fan. Now he has three. And I am not one of them. But I'm just biased because I love Anthem so much.

Anyway, I don't have very many pictures of Ithian scanned, but he's in this one:

http://cougati.deviantart.com/art/Shall-we-go-to-the-show-87699096

He had wings too, like Ithea, and they were black. But they got...removed. Painfully. Which is part of the reason why he's so crazy.

[glimpse]

Hahaha I think it's actually IMPOSSIBLE for me to make characters I don't like. I'll make one that does bad things but I'll still like them in the end. Otherwise, I'd make them miserable ALL the time.

Did one of his enemies pluck out his wings? Or was it their mom? MAYBE EVEN ANTHEM :O

Oh man, I have NO CLUE why it's so hard for me to draw lately. I think I'll flesh out my Harkitein to relax~ It's unbelievably difficult to draw when I'm all stressed out. Dx

[Cougati]

I have 350+ characters, and I on;y dislike two of them. Ithian, and a way older character named Meertaba. Actually, everyone hatted Meertaba so much we made an entire RP for the purpose of killing him. XD

My characters are often miserable before they find happiness. I have to see how they react in all kinds of situations before I can write for them accurately. Sometimes the bad things stick though. XD

YOU ARE SO ASTUTE. It was Anthem. Acting under the orders of his master (at the time) who was an enemy of Ithea and Ithian's father. Lasifaar would have done the same thing to Ithea that Anthem did to Ithian, but she stabbed him in the gut and escaped. Thereby foiling all of his plans. Which involved using them as twins. And then Anthem met Ithea...

So it was really over after that.

Eventually, Ithea went back to save Ithian, but he was a nutcase by that point, and I've already told you what happened. Anyway...

Art block sucks!

Yeah...

You make me want to draw my other harkitein again.

I shall have to tell you of the race's history sometime. LOL.

[Cougati]

More new saga art!

A doodle of Anthem and Ithea's first meeting:

http://cougati.deviantart.com/art/Oh-the-Past-is-rough-123070623

The chick with the first aid kit is Aidian, Charlie's mother. And Anthem's lover for a time. Until Ithea got jealous and kills her.

A random doodle of adult Ithea being a slut...I mean, herself.

http://cougati.deviantart.com/art/A-Show-Tonight-123071009

And an older doodle of the Silverwood family. And Tris, who's technically only Junior's half-sister, but was semi raised by Ithea nonetheless.

http://cougati.deviantart.com/art/Out-for-a-Walk-123175644[/list]

[glimpse]

EVERYONE I LOVE DIEEESSS! xD

Aidian is CUTE! Is she a nurse or just good at bandaging Anthem up? x) Also, I think this is one of the best pictures I've seen you draw of Ithea so far! :O I love her face in that one :3

GAH! I have more to say but my brain's getting all fuzzy because I'm sleepy D::

[Cougati]

Aw man!

Well, I try to be original. But it had to happen...XD.

Thanks! Nah, she's more like his assistant, so she was working as a nurse in this instance...but it's not her real job. Ithea kills her because of Charlie, actually. Since Ithea's culture puts such importance on children, and she can't have any...and then Aidian had a kid with HER man (actually, I have a comic I need to finish that I drew about this the other day) so she just sort of got crazy jealous.

But most of the characters in this story die. XD

Ah...thanks! I do like that one, (it came out so well!) but I'd say these are my faves...:

Fave 1Fave 2

Aight. If your tired, I'll call it quits for today, I need to sleep too, so...see you tomorrow?

[glimpse]

More like, see you in ten days. D::: I'm so terrible!
