My favorite part of Neopets was always the faeries and Faerieland! Really wanted to redraw one of my favorite loading animations from the site.
I gave all the faeries redesigns too! The theme I had in mind was "Faerieland meets Euphoria High" lmao, so my redesigned outfits are more casual than the high fashion I tend to draw, but I think it fits their personalities better while still being chic.
Pepper Perez is an Asian-American who lives alone with her cat, Nappy. Both of her parents have died due to old age while she was studying in college that led her to drop out and work a mundane job. She makes music on the side as it is her passion, but her career never takes off. Her life becomes unfulfilling and repetitive - also due to the lack of guidance from her parents or anyone, and it does not help that her only friend is Gerry Stacy - not until her cat playfully bit her a little too hard.
(P.S. hopefully Spider-Kitty isn't taken yet... if it is, she could totally Spider-Meow or Spider-Puss LMAO)
See my headcanons, her abilities, and my soundtrack ideas under the cut! (CW: death of a pet)
Headcanons:
Nappy lost his spidey powers after biting Pepper.
Pepper makes Nappy her sidekick. Despite being a lazy cat, she trained him to scout and distract enemies (e.g. he gets pet for being too cute and fluffy).
She prefers stealth, taking down criminals in the cleanest and most efficient way possible (which is why she always brings a stopwatch and tries to beat her own records of how fast she can finish the job).
Her precision and efficiency in fighting leads to Miguel O'Hara recruiting her into Spider Society.
When first joining the Spider Society, she has no clue how to work with other spideys, leading to a few failed missions.
She would definitely jam with Spider Gwen.
She would not jam with Hobie, saying that all his songs are composed of the same three chords.
Kraven is the one who ends Nappy's life.
Miguel O'Hara would gift Pepper an AI hologram version of Nappy to help her be with her cat again and to continue her duties as Spider-Kitty.
Abilities:
She gained the DNA of the radioactive spider and her cat after she was playing with Nappy. Her abilities include:
Superhuman flexibility - She can crawl through the tightest spaces. If her head fits in it, her entire body will fit in as well.
Natural night vision
Retractable claws
Fastest reflexes
Enhanced spatial awareness
Soundtrack ideas:
I still can't think of the main theme for her though. If anyone can suggest a song with DnB, melodic synths, autotuned high-pitched vocals, and maybe a sprinkle of screaming, that'd be cool.
She's def a work in progress and I'm having a lot of fun developing her :3
