RATE YOUR TRAITS [OC]

just a silly warm up sketch.

canonically when ever someone calls Sabrina a furry she hits them with "NYAN" while shapeshifting paws and the :3 face (totally not a abuse of her vicissitude ability )

okay so the intrusive thoughts won and you all get some yautja OC butt i couldn't think of another way to show how thicc, caked up, meaty, plump Outis is. like whole handfuls would do a front view as well but that might get me in trouble here also the dangers of showering with a partner the first time this happened just confused Outis "i don't think you know how bathing works "

calling this one done

just my 2 vamps having a quite moment, even in a world of darkness you need to make time for a little romance and companionship because if you don't you may as well just be a walking corpse, be it friends or lovers unlife alone will drive all kindred mad eventually

okay so i finally have a name for my main yautja oc and felt like at least sketching her out again Outis as in Nobody in Ancient Greek as the clan inherit there names she will eventually take the name Athena after the clan elder and Outis's mother "Minerva" pass , or she proves herself worthy of it (at that point the elder will take the name Atrytone or one of Athena's other names ) a xeno queen or yautja xeno are a sure bet to earn one of the divine names but other more exotic hunts are a option. also more typical yautja names are used in the clan but the direct descendants use this naming tradition

I did look in to it a bit and your not wrong but it dose seem a little inconsistent between movies and comics, like if we take all the comic statements yautja senses are crazy good. being able to see infrared naturally weather it washes out normal colors or not, (could very well just depend on the sun and if its natural light or not ) and to quote the avp wiki and central (i really wish they posted sources more but it gets the gist across) "olfactory system. This system, comparable to that of certain Earthly creatures such as insects or crabs, okay then bugs and crabs smell with antenna the closest thing yautja have to antenna is there dreads makes sense cos the dreads have blood flow in a lot of comic art when they are cut so if we low ball it to the best earth has to offer and don't even scale it up to dread size we got the " Giant male silk moths may have the best sense of smell in the world. They can smell a female's perfume nearly 7 miles (11 kilometers) away. " as for hearing "Coupled with their acute hearing, which can detect the faintest of sounds," (avp central again for that one ) kinda vague but lets put that at heart beat, using the movie predators with the super predators as a rough example. so combine all of those and a yautja has senses comparable to daredevil for the most part and that's crazy cos you can take it beyond that and make some assumptions like the little quills they have could act like spiders hair and sensing air pressure and movement and scaling up the sense of smell to account for the dread size and number of them compared to bug antenna sorry been thinking about this since making the original post and just been wanting to nerd out about it a little. also just a side not i hate that he uses "oomans" cos the jungle hunter can clearly make H sounds when he says " what the hell are you " just a pet peeve

I'm not really happy with this i am way to out of practices, especially doing colours and backgrounds. this all just came from me noticing that Yautja can see the colours of the filters in the bio masks heat and other vision types, but with the bio mask off its all just blown out shades of red, so my thinking is they can see the full colour spectrum but the IR light overlaps and washes out all other colours. did they need to be in a lesbian relationship... not really, but i did it anyway and fuck it one of them is trans HAHAHAH (damn my bi monster fucker brain making self insert OCs)

If you think about it. The beckoning as written has a lot of fucked up orientalist connotations. Like, the elders are being summoned away to a war fought by their ancestors. Sure. But they had to backpedal from the whole "they're being summoned to the middle east" and then just kinda... didn't clarify what it meant for the gehenna war to be a global phenomenon. It's conceit as a narrative device relies solely on the elders vanishing into the savage desert and all that shit. It's just lazy writing amd we can do so much better.

It could be so interesting to have elders beckoned to strange places to fulfill some strange piece of a methuselah's goal. Just somebody stupidly powerful appearing one night in small town Alabama half delirious from the beckoning and believing that their sole purpose is to watch over the gas station and cast an esoteric amd seemingly nonsensical spell if they ever see a baby blue '68 El Camino pass through

Like. Get rid of the awful "disappear into the east" nonsense and do something interesting and appropriately alien with it.

bet you can already hear the music

even the largest size maid dress Outis could find was lacking, seams its going to be custom made only, seamstress's/ tailors shouldn't be able to work out outis is a yautja just from measurements right... there are 8ft 6 285kg humans right... oh god her plus size surcharge is going to be crazy. was thinking about outfits for Outis and this interaction was the first thing that came to mind

Oh hell yeah LOVE IT.

Posting the sketches for these since it will still be a couple more weeks until I’m less busy 😭. Hope I drew your characters ok! I’ll come back to these when I have more time :)

Thanks for letting me draw your characters! @thelatexshapeshifter @fjaskgf @wickerbotter @dezerex @dekirufran

Hellsing inspired by Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992)

Still contemplating a background but idk
