And so now we have Lepy, (though his real name is Aouri)! the skill i had when drawing his feral form varied because i got better at it the longer i was drawing it (cuz i use him in a visual RP with my friend heid i had lots of practice) and of course the same went with his human form cuz he had just gotten a reboot when i started his reference. He used to be a living toy, he's changed quite a bit due to personal reasons. I've had him for many years now but i gave him a hard revamp in 2018 so i could leave his past behind.
He has a TON, a FUCKTON of lore, so we're going to summarize this as much as i can rn because i need to get back to working on ch 22 of gom. i will split his post into multiple cuz he also just has a lot of art as well and rp panels.
going to put a read-more though cuz i'm probably going to go into more than the others cuz i love him that much.
Lepy is a spirit animal [original species]; (Black Jaguar with king cheetah mane/used to be a snow leopard) who was kidnapped from his forest when he was still alive, where he was known as the ghost of the rainforest, by a demon prince named Adelais.
At first, Lepy was forlorn, unresponsive, and merely lived by the demon's side bc what could he do? he is like 5'3'' and the prince was like 7 or 8 foot or smth. idr what the exact number is, but the demon prince is "large and in charge".
Lepy however, actually fell in love with the price, as the prince did with him. Originally, their relationship was merely a captor with his prisoner, but it turned into a mutual love and respect over time. Their bond was incredibly strong and Adelais was very fiercely protective of his small boyfriend.
[Content Warning, next drawing has a bit of blood!]
i just left off the nudity for these to make it easier to share (cuz he never really wore clothes before death/while alive) but i assure you he has something downstairs LMAO, anyway.
One day, Lepy was minding his business as usual when suddenly, Adelais started acting unusual and feral.
Lepy died then, after his own lover ripped out the heart from his chest. He didn't know why, for many many years, why... Did he actually hate him all that time, and finally grew bored enough to murder him?
After this, Zaaid (an oc of mine, or GOD), plucked a star from the sky to replace his heart. now, he lives as an angel and for many years, his memories were sealed for his health and mental health. He has a scar on his chest and the star beneath shines dimly, directly connected to his body and health.
Finally, after years of learning how to love responsibly and take care of himself better, his memories fully came back while he also gained a dark mark on his chest, growing inside the star... (to be continued in next post)
bonus, can't show the full thing but hey, i am really proud of this drawing and if i can't at least show a bit of it i will be sad. Lepy's spots take so long to draw!!
Sorry guys i was super busy working on gom so i stopped uploading for a while and just let the queue continue reblogging older posts. However i already had these in the drafts so i'm going to go ahead and continue the little character history breakdown i'd been doing earlier.
Find the first post about Lepy here!
As you guys know from the last time, Lepy went on to live his next life with a new family on earth after recovering memories. but, Lepy has this bad habit where he doesn't tell people he loves he's suffering until it becomes a terrible issue. It had been growing worse and worse, the mark got very dark during his nightmares and finally, after some coercing from his one awake boyfriend, he was brought into heaven to stay in the infirmary and figure out what was causing his condition.
As it turns out, out of his agony, Adelais had attached himself onto Lepy when he died. In the process, this is when Lepy finds out that Adelais didn't kill him because of a secret hatred, but because he had caught a disease well known in hell caused by eating the fauna. It's one of the curses in hell, and can happen to any of the demons there.
He feels a little complicated about it, but it brought some ease to him, too. Learning that Adelais never hated him, but had just been sick? It brought some closure.
So, currently in the story Lepy is waiting to get essentially exorcised because the attachment is hurting him. (Adelais isn't there, it's like just his anguish in death latched onto Lepy as he died).
I'll share my favorite rp screenshots (pictures, so like borderless comic sort of things) in the next one!
*Yes, the pixel drawings were drawn in ms paint.
*Yes, the rest were drawn in drawpile. the two creepy headshots of Adelais are drawn in clip...i think? They might have been done in drawpile too actually e v e;;
