Been thinking lately that, while I have tons of OCs, in terms of drawn ones I have a lot of ladies, and then NB/NA ones, essentially no masc ones
Was time to fix that, especially with Artfight coming up, and I've had a sword and sandals setting rolling around in my head for a few years now
This is Amosis, a wandering bard... among other things. He plays a instrument that is not a Hurdy Gurdy, but not unlike a Hurdy Gurdy (not pictured here because they are hard to draw) made of a strange, greenish metal.
He's slowly travelling north for reasons that are... not totally clear to him. With only the clothes on his back, a dagger in his cloak, and a strange mask with large eyes.
It fits him perfectly, and he knows it's important, vital, but he can never remember putting it on, only taking it off...
Iah is Amosis, Amosis is Iah, but the two are not the same. Iah only exists within the helmet, only when it is worn. Iah knows the secret tunes that his instrument can play, that create the things man and beast call sorcery.
Iah knows why they are travelling north even if not how the trip will go and how they will resolve it, Iah knows that the Void Lost are watching and what they did to the world, Iah knows what hunts them
Hopefully I can punch myself into actually writing some stuff for this setting soonish. Very inspired by both Conan the Barbarian and Dungeon Meshi
I'm thinking short stories over full novels, as Amosis travels north
Also here's some art I used to inspire Amosis
