Dark-Linksona: Spectre! 💀🖤 He stole a grimoire & summoned a powerful poe with no intent to make a deal, just bored. price being “an eye for an eye”. With the patch off Spec has momentary poe vision before a migraine hits 💜  { tag } Profile under the cut! ↓

NOTE: not self-insert, he’s based on an old oc + my chaotic botw playstyle! Also made before totk.

Not for trade, sale or offer. Do not reupload, trace, copy, edit, use for gen Al, N-F-T or crypt0. Fanart is allowed! @ me in your post if you do! ♡

Alias: Dark Link, cryptid!Link, a Rat, Spec

Personality: Snarky, mischievous (does stupid things for a ‘wtf’ reaction), indifferent apath, laidback, chaotic, blunt, introvert, yangire, anti-social and avoidant of other travellers to the point he stays away from paths/roads.

Summary: the Anti-Hero. When the prospects of Link waking up is slim, the desperate goddess Hylia turns to a last resort. Thing is... Spectre’s a bandit who camps with monsters with a strong poe in his shadow,   believing Hylia to be a false god and Hyrule is better off this way:   wild and free. Reluctant with no care whatsoever, he only does her   bidding just for the cool mastersword on the basis he remains anonymous,  and so she could finally leave him the fuck alone.

Other points:

Ppl think the shit he does is the Yiga's fault lol (arson)

 Actually vain and cares about hygiene (not wild or feral)

 Dulled sense in touch and taste

 Meddles with poes for fun from the grimoire he stole

 Naps in trees alot, sleeps for 10 hours (poe takes alot of energy) has a fav tree and will beat up anyone who uses it

 (playlist)  (ship playlist)

Camping with Monsters 👁️‍🗨️

Seen as a fellow monster due to the poe in his shadow

Moblin shoulder rides !!! Lizalfos give him lifts across water!!

Can sort of communicate with monsters. Understands what their sounds/actions mean and can somewhat mimic those sounds himself! (reee)

He even helps with patrol and carries a signal horn

His weapons are propped up alongside the monsters' weapons

Gives names to his fav monsters

Feels he fits in more!

Not in the way that he’d feel affection, it’s more “I enjoy the companionship and I fit in more. They better my time.” there’s no dependency, it’s unconditional and it’s amusing. He’s able to keep the attachment because of that, so he won’t ever think of hurting them. Though in his eyes if they die he can always find a new camp til the next Blood Moon. If the monsters are dancing joyfully, he’s learnt to exhibit that cue whether it’s hollow or not.

Poe in his shadow - iT’s fREE rEal-Estate 👁️‍🗨️

Basically summoned this powerful poe from the stolen grimoire

A third of the page was missing but the entity was like “this guy fuckn stupid. I’m staying.” Saw that Spec did not care for fame or money, Spec was just bored and had no interest in actually making a deal with it. Spec actually tried ridding the circle 10 seconds after summoning since he saw enough. The poe ended up just shrugging and lending power anyway.

The final price was an eye for an eye. Basically took his eye and gave Spec his, residing behind the eyepatch.

Where Spectre got his name. Saw that word in the book and thought it sounded cool.

Has no desire to take over its host, just freeloading while hiding from Hylia and Ganon’s control lol. Actually grew attached.

They do come out on their own occasionally as shadow hand appendages to help out, gesture, deflect arrows, and revive him when he gets killed. Aka why he’s reckless.

The entity is strongest at night, since it can stretch across shadows.

With the eyepatch off Spec can see what the entity sees, but not for long it gives him migraines sfkfdskjnfs

Wards off any other spoop nasties who Spec recklessly tries to summon for fun

Deeper Deets 💀

His emotions are muted with disparities. No grief, joy or rage. It’s the more shallow emotion he can feel like content, irritated, gloomy etc. In limited circumstances he may experience spikes in emotion or sNAP, but other than that he‘s bored all the time. His anti-social behaviour and lack of moral is because of his imbalance. Pros of this tho is that he takes nothing to heart, gets shit done quickly and can handle intense situations without emotion or moral dilemmas clouding his thoughts. (Tho 90% problematically) Honestly he’s just extremely sad/numb, and is apathetic to cope with past repressed trauma with massive trust issues.

Towards people: Spectre isn’t adept in deceiving nor will bother putting on a fake persona to blend in with society, so in people interactions (something he dislikes and will avoid) his personality as stated above is apparent. He doesn’t care and doesn't want to get involved. He may straight up ignore you unless he wants something/bandits, all with that blank stare or unsavoury grin. He won’t hesitate to seriously injure if need be, and would amusingly watch someone get ambushed by bokoblins and may join in; then loot them while theyre unconscious ddfkjndf 

Befriending him: This doesn’t mean him having acquaintances is impossible. He could have a few. He’s the weird fun goblin to do stupid shit with. He likes watching expressions! But again, he can’t understand why you may badly react to something and remains unfazed. He cannot provide emotional support nor can he genuinely comfort you. Despite that, you may learn a thing or two from him like picking up his stoic approach to life, stop caring what people think and don’t sweat the small stuff, do what you want to do. Who knows he may pick up your mannerisms too. 

D̪͔a̪r̻̞̻k̺̞̬er ̼̼͚ͅd̲͎͙̙̳̺̘e̪̯̻e̳t̥̳̺s̖̞͓̹̠͓̬ 💀

Spectres destructive nature is based on the stimuli he feels most and will seek the most. If someone is highly irritating him, the mental (sometimes intrusive) thoughts of getting them to shut up is highly disturbing. And sometimes, he’ll follow through with it.

“When you’re slitting someone’s throat, you have to do it from one ear to the other. That way, when you lacerate both the jugular and the windpipe, you get to watch them suffocate in their own blood..”

Spectre is a killer in certain circumstances, blankly without hesitation. These are people (e.g Yiga) who keep harassing him, those who usually return to steal from monster camps, and who return to his territory after warning. In these circumstances his hate for them and seeking a thrill overlap and will activate that sinister side.

Cause (past): who knows. He never talks about it, never dwelled on it, he may not even remember. But the lead I have is that perhaps Spectre’s parent was like the flower lady during the Calamity’s aftermath. And he hates getting too dirty bc of the manky home environment. The empathy part of his brain essentially burnt out to cope. One day his parent never came home and he felt nothing, thats what he believes, but he actually doesn't remember that he had set the house on fire with her trapped in it. And so from a very young age he learned to hunt and survive by himself with no moral qualms, then observed monsters til he figured out how to be accepted by them.

Come get y’all TMA Avatar OCs

Okay so! I haven’t gotten around to drawing them all yet because these came to me in about two hours like a inspiration freight train so here’s a rundown of all 7 TMA Avatar OCs I came up with recently. Let me know which ones most interest you & feel free to ask questions about them bc I really love fleshing OCs out!

Here’s Maria and Snail so far:

Buried:

Maria - Originally a member of the Wigan Pit Brow Lasses, she earned her living working as a miner who went missing after a small tunnel collapse in 1867 while in her early 50s. Her weapon of choice is an old, dirt-and-rust caked pickaxe.

Corruption:

A Brazilian entomology student who got lost in amazon and became unhealthily infatuated with another, far more ancient avatar of the Corruption who she happened to stumble upon. She refused to leave this avatar’s side and soon became violently ill with Dengue, a disease passed on by mosquitos that resulted in her suffering with a high fever, awful sickness, among other things.

Hundreds of years old, this avatar aligned with centipedes has mutated far, far beyond their original human self and into an unrecognisable creature of limbs, bone plates and rib-like legs, to say nothing of their mandibles.

A snail mutated by the corruption, it lives in uncanny disguise as a human with a suspicious looking rucksack and raincoat.

Dark:

A woman who, after years volunteering at a charity shop, brought a pitch black shawl delivered in blank shoebox. Upon putting it on, she soon found herself unable to take it off, falling heavily under its influence and losing herself to the dark.

Spiral:

A Dyspraxic Calligrapher working to raise awareness for various conditions lost herself in her work and, after a traumatic experience with the spiral, fell into a terrible paranoia that left her stranded in a whirlwind of chaos from which she never returned.

A creature drawn by the Calligrapher, made entirely of ink strokes. It acts almost as a therapy animal for her though it tends to wander freely. It also acts as a weapon; though it’s 3D in theory, it’s edges are as sharp as a diamond blade knife, and it has a habit of walking or running through things...

i wanted to try making a darksona to go w bird boy except for one problem: not counting armor, botw doesn’t have dark link in it.

[[MORE]]

so have this blob of malice that’s trying to mimic bird boy after he made contact w it too many times. the problem is that once “borb” gained a rudimentary form of salience, he proved himself to be just as much of a dumbass as bird boy.

he’s evil, don’t get me wrong, but he’s very bad at being evil. the good news for everyone else is that he spawned in a fairly remote location and hasn’t found his way to civilization (or bird boy) yet.

DAAAANG I WAS COMMITTED!

Was looking through my old deviant art and oh my God I was so proud of these when I was younger! This was when I was in my Darkiplier/Antisepticeye phase.

Links to the original pieces on my deviant w/ credits to all the artist who created their versions of the two:

So I tried to paint myself... I *think* I'm quite happy with it, but I definitely need to practice painting more 🥺👉🏻👈🏻

[alannasart]

I don’t have any canvas boards, so I’ve been painting on towels! It’s been working surprisingly well!
