MAIN CHARACTER DESIGNS
First up we got
EVEREST!!!
Everest's shirt is a light blue you just cant really see it. They have green and blue eyes because it's a mix of their mother's green eyes and their other parental figure's blue eyes. (That's not how human genetics work but they weren't really conceived that way. Like genetics were kinda just thrown out of the mix.)
They have lots of bandages because they tend to get in a lot of fights, especially when they used to be in the orphanage. (I call them Timmy Toughknucles on the ref sheet, idk if it's visible.)
Their belt is made of tiny metal suns. Their design is based off of a sunset (thanks to @emiplayzmc for that idea). This is because their birth basically caused "the sun" (everest's mother) to "set" (die.) Also it's because sunsets are like related to the sky but not quite.
MARIN BELLAMY!!!
I'm gonna be honest with you, I don't know if Marin's hairstyle is possible. It's like, an afro, but then there are two strands in the front that are like those braids with beads at the very end. She has one large yellow flower in her hair with like ribbons coming out of the end. Her design is based off of Marionettes, as seen with the weird ruffly dress. The sleeves cinching around the elbow is supposed to show like. Elbow joints.
Last but definitely not least (oogggugu this guy can't get a break...)
SEVERINE MOURNING!!!
Severine isn't colored because his outfit is literally just varying shades of black and gray and I had no light skin color. But he's...scarily pale. His cape is supposed to look like bird wings, and so it's like. A crow. He's supposed to look like a crow, because crows show death and misfortune. This man definitely has a LOT of deat hand misfortune in his life. sigh.
He has his trusty ol sword attached to his back. I'll probably add something to symbolize his daughter in his outfit later on.
