And now you all know how sucky I am with wheelchairs.
ENNEHWHEY, THIS ARE ERLINSTADT, KRAKKEN'S PADER. WITH ANAKALISH, KRAKKEN'S GHOST MATER. Their's is a beautiful, beautiful love, except for the part where the world has to end for them to be together again. Seeing as how Anakalish is dead and Erlinstadt keeps freaking resurrecting himself. WT-AICH MAN, it's no like they just hand them resurrections out at the county fair you know. That selfish bastard.
Also, they are importanteh por Dancing Skeletons.
And now, storytime. Erlibones has a crapton of scars/stitchings. This is because Oren burial rights require the burying of the skeleton in seperate canopic jars. All small bones are wrapped in silk and divided according to size (so finger joints in one small jar, ribs in another, mandible seperate from the rest of the skull, etc etc) while the bigger ones are placed in their own. The jars are then arranged in roughly the same arrangement as the skellytong.
Feng have to pull their bones together to resurrect. And while it's fairly easy to fix decapitation, complete and total dismemberment PLUS the careful wrapping and sealing that Oren burials entail, mean Erlibones was dead longer than he should have been, because while resurrecting causes reality to break, NOT resurrecting also causes broken reality to collect around Feng. As you can imagine, this is bad for all involved. THEY ARE GENERALLY REGARDED AS A SIGN OF THE END TIMES. (And if they are complete vaporized, they reform out of dirt or clay. Literally impossible to destroy. They're much like cockroaches in that respect.)
I forgot his stripey eyebrows;_; This is distressing as they are my favorite part about Erl.
I scream at you to color all the time but this one looks darn slick as-is. I kind of want it on a t-shirt. Maybe it's mostly Erl's snazzy suit that makes me think this, but the whole thing sort've reminds me of an old-timey woodblock print. Like the Victorian ones in the projector in Disney's Tarzan </dork>.
Erl is really looking like Krakken's daddy here, too. Okay I lied--I would REALLY like to see them in color. Don't make me color it for you. D:<
I really like the fake anthropology of the ritualistic dismemberment/burial thing, too. Sleep with the lights on, baby, 'cause I might be comin' to steal your brain. (That should be a song title.)
I'M NOT DONE YET. You draw the most adorable couples. <3
There.
