We Hunt, and are Hunted
Full Version Here!
Since Tumblr won't let me send the full illustration. But Anyway; Information below!
My last art of 2025, but I sadly didn't finish all the details until this morning because I worked the last several days, no holidays for me.
I love our VRising characters but I def don't give them enough time in the sun, so I wanted my last art of the year to be from a comfort game and of a pairing that I think is neat and deserved some love; and I guess coincidentally will be the first post of 2026 LMAO.
The depiction is the boss fight against “JADE” in the Dunley Farmlands area of the game. In the lore we've written, she resembles an old flame of Enoch’s from long ago, who was his human partner. She passed when he was sealed away to endure and survive, and over the centuries since, her lineage had devolved from Protectors of the Vampire Clans to Vampire Hunters. Enoch doesn't want to admit that's true, and has a momentary relapse of judgement due to the overwhelming appearance and similarity, which was maybe not the smartest idea against someone with a gun who has no hesitation when face to face with a “monster.”
The daggers are Xander's preferred weaponry, he uses them to channel his Static and Phantasmal energies, and Enoch's twin-blade is sadly not thrumming with any Necromantic energy as he's basically slipping away at this moment. Xander and their ‘kinda-adopted-vampire’ son Ivy barely got him back to his coffin in time to rejuvenate and heal, which also marks this THE moment that Xander realizes that he actually maybe has feelings for once. “Don't know what you have till it's basically almost gone and bleeding all over your new shirt” – kinda deal. I never realized how blue this game was until I color picked from some Dunley screenshots. It’s very blue. Also I totally named this piece the ‘Battle Music’ from the game b/c I’m very creative.
Enoch belongs to @sarndipityart Xander is mine
