Okay ermm im having like such bad artblock issues so have this that ive made like a good amount of days ago instead bc im too lazy to take pics of my sketches???? bulk post incoming insanely soon tho.
Lore ----->
This is Kaedehara Arashi (no I didn't steal the name erm....)
He's part of some random universe I'm making again with one of my friends and his lore is way too extensive to just explain in my post so if you're curious just ask me instead but I'll be going over a few random things um
Everyone in the world has like some sort of power and depending on wether it's socially considered good or bad its called either a blessing or a curse. He has a blessing turned curse called "Kabuki Kaede - Narukamis Curse" (and I've tried my best to do research about what names I'll be giving my characters and their blessings but the internet can only offer so much in terms of cultural information). From what I've been able to gather (i like to give my characters names with symbolism) Kabuki is a dramatic form of japanese theatre, and Kaede basically means red maple (or red maple leaf). Yes, I did steal the Narukami mountain name from genshin BUT IT'S A PLACEHOLDER because I haven't made a map yet. The curse refers to the split he created by accidentally finding his power, creating a long ravine down a meadow. The ravine is now known as Narukamis "canyon".
Tho i did my best with doing some research specifically about the dragon spirit that is so called "kabuki kaede" i know literally nothing about the geography of japan so don't drag me just yet- this is also heavily genshin inspired.
FEEL FREE TO ASK AWAY???

I've sure been missing for a bit but I'm back with content i promise
I'm taking name suggestions for them/her in the comments pls! 鈾♀櫋 The speedpaint of this piece is also up on youtube, my channel is very small currently (under 20 subscribers atm) so I'd really appreciate if you could check it out!
My first video that actually got significant effort put into the editing LOL. In the video I also tackle exactly *why* I left instagram in the first place, and lemme tell you, it's a bit complicated. I did my best to narrow it down. I'm not gonna bring it up here because it might be triggering to some people (there's a warning for when it comes up in the video too so dw.) Anyway! As my other characters, this one's also part of my little final exam. (Can you tell I hate my art profile? Because my theme has nothing to do with it.)

Personality----------------------
Good traits (and major virtue): very adventurous, grew up needing to stick to peers for survival so is extremely loyal and protective of friends. Does his best to stick up for himself and is loud about it.
Bad traits (and major flaw): Bipolar, extremely, dangerously impulsive. A little short tempered, loud, nippy.
Usual mood/brief description of how you'd most likely catch them: Either salty about something, extremely stressed, or without a care. Never inbetween.
Sense of humor: ....Makes jokes about literally everything, gross big brother humor.
Greatest joy in life: guitar (electric), singing, his partner.
Greatest fear (why): Losing his partner, the band failing. (crazy abandonment issues)
Past------------------------------
Type of childhood: Good until they had to move. He doesn't know what has happened to any of his parents, he just remembers being left at a door and told to stay still until comes out, then his mother leaving. Neither does he remember what age he was, but it was some in primary school.
Happiest memory: Picking up skills such as guitar, kissing Lloyd, his first concert.
Worst memory: Seeing his ex die of an overdose, almost getting kicked out of the orphanage.
Educational background: Public school, where he performed average/bad but was able to make it trough to whatever 12th grade would be for americans lol.
Present---------------------------
Current location: The orphanage
Living situation: Spends the day doing housework at the orphanage and sleeping as much as he can, and every single night in random abandoned buildings with his friends and bandmates, or in garages and at small events performing.
Occupation: Does housework, secretly performs in a punk/dsbm band.
Band name: Skinning Hook
Others: Born into a traditionally *Norse* community, of which his mother and siblings all moved to America from Iceland. He doesn't remember anything about them or who they were, or how to contact them, the only thing he remembers is part of the language and the hatred he feels towards his parents for abandoning him. With time, he realized that they mustve had their reasons, but he is salty for getting such an unfair chance in life. He's suppressed his roots in an attempt to fit in, trying to forget his language, not engaging in the traditions, telling himself it's all stupid. But he secretly longs for it deep down, for a sense of belonging to his ancestors.

Anatoly "Crawler" Smirnovf
His character reference is already posted :3
CWD contracted: yes
These things were mentioned in the previous post too, but I'll just redefine them a little
Anatoly is part of the same yellowstone AU and lives on the opposite side of the same forest that Trevor found peace in. He lives with a small group of runaways, most of which teens, in an abandoned veterinary clinic.
CWD immunity: no
CWD partial immunity: yes
Crawler chewed clawed and gnawed at his own face and cheeks when infected, being in a horrible state of mind. The disease deteriorated his mental and took a toll on his brain. Tho cured he is now extremely avoidant of people and very snappy. He is either fully apathetic and doesn't respond to stimuli, or extremely reactive and it seems to be at random.
