I drew Detali losing her arm because I'm a slut for amputation whump. Enjoy

(if literally one person likes this I'll write about how she lost it)

[sapphicccici]

more oc whump because I can't let her catch a fucking break tbh.

Content: Detali is trying to stop a war from breaking out and consults the goddess of war, Carnage, who she can't just talk to.

Warnings: guns, barbarian typical violence, hallucinating (?)

“I need you to fight me.”

Brytt cocked an eyebrow. “You want me to fight you?”

Detali huffed. “Don’t ask questions, and don’t hold back.” She thrust an axe into Brytt’s hands, planting her feet and taking a deep breath. “Fight me.”

“Okay…” Brytt hesitated for a beat, then swung the axe half-heartedly. Detali moved swiftly to the side.

A frustrated growl escaped Detali’s lips. “Can you just fucking try this? Please, Brytt, I need this.”

Detali was acting insane– she knew this; but if there was one thing Detali hated it was being backed into a corner. Yet, here she was, growling like a feral animal, begging for someone to hurt her. 

Brytt must have picked up on the desperation in Detali’s voice, and she finally gave in. She swung the axe hard, slashing into Detali with a sickening squelching sound. Blood sprayed, hot and sudden.

Detali screamed and clutched her side, crumpling to her knees. She clawed at the dirt beneath her as her heart hammered in her chest, the pain making her ears ring.  

“Detali?” Brytt tried to call out as she rushed to Detali’s side. “Was that too much? Are you–?” 

But Detali couldn’t hear her over the pounding in her ears, the entire world pulsing–vibrating. Her vision started to blur around the edges, and she felt it flooding in. The feeling laid on her like a weighted blanket, warm and familiar.

Yes. This. Rage.

She felt a hand land on her shoulder and instinct took over. She slapped it away, looking to the source of the touch. Brytt’s face twisted into another. A face that was becoming all too familiar.

Carnage grinned down at her. “I knew you’d come around.”

“Carnage,” Detali coughed up blood, watching as it dripped into the dirt. “How many?”

“You’re going to have to be more specific, Detali, how could I possibly–”

“You know what the fuck I’m asking you, so answer the fucking question. There are armies coming to Nethara. How. Many.”

Carnage smirked. “Hit me.”

Detali didn’t hesitate. She surged up onto her knees and swung her gun, driving the butt of the gun into Carnage’s chin. “Answer me.”

A quiet chuckle fell from Carnage’s bloody lips. “There are armies all over the planet, Detali. I don’t bother myself with who they serve or where they are going.”

“Bullshit. You’re the Goddess of war.”

That was met with the butt of an axe to Detali’s nose.

“You don’t understand; you’ve put me in an impossible situation here. I’m on the opposite side of a war from everyone I’ve ever loved,” Detali spat at Carnage’s feet. “Haven’t you ever loved anyone?”

Carnage shrugged lazily. “That’s a big question.” 

“Answer it.”

“Hit me.”

Detali did. She swung again, harder. She slammed directly into Carnage’s eye, knocking her back into the dirt. Carnage looked back at Detali with a look she couldn’t quite read.

“Of course I’ve loved before.” Carnage threw up her hands, exasperated. “It doesn’t matter. That’s not what I am for.” 

In the blink of an eye, she had a handgun aimed at Detali’s head. 

Detali was faster. She disarmed Carnage with a single quick motion, the gun skittering in the dirt.

Carnage sighed. “It isn’t what we are for. You and me– we’re the same. War is in your nature, Detali.”

Detali swung again.

And again. 

And again.

Until a flush of ice cold went streaking down her back.

She turned towards the source of the cold to see two armored men holding a giant empty bucket above her head. 

“You were gonna kill her,” one of the men stated. “We had to do something.”

Brytt.

Detali turned to face where Carnage had been but all she saw was Brytt, battered beneath her.

“No, no, no, no–”

She tried to rush to Brytt, but Brytt was ushered away. 

“Please– I didn’t mean– It wasn’t on purpose– Brytt, I’m so–”

“Get out of here, Detali,” one of the men scolded. “You’ve done enough.”

Gladiator Whump

This is more canon backstory for my OC Detali Gamble, who is a beserker barbarian. She and Cossim Vect are prisoners who are forced to be gladiators. This is about their first fight!

Also today is Cossim's birthday. Everyone say happy birthday Cossim! <3

content warnings: whump, (non permanent) character death, blood, coughing up blood, gladiator fights, barbarian typical rage, guns, sci fi violence, gore

︶꒦꒷♡꒷꒦︶

“You motherfucker,” Detali screamed. “I’m gonna fucking end you!”

“How ‘bout you come over here and try it?” Cossim challenged in an infuriatingly smug tone.

Cossim raised his pistol and fired, and even through the adrenaline Detali could feel the sting in her side where the shot made contact.

“Don’t be so fucking cocky,” she growled at him

She rushed forward, swinging her gun in a broad swipe at his head. He raised a hand and the hit shattered a force shield that hadn’t been there a moment ago.

Detali snarled. The next two hits had Cossim landing hard in the dust.

Fear flashed across his face before he produced a small object from a pouch on his waist and chucked it at her. It magnetized to her gun and began to pulse and buzz, and within seconds her gun was glowing crimson.

She cried out and dropped it, her hands already red and burning.

Cossim grinned proudly, his smile now red and missing a few teeth, and wiped at his bleeding nose.

Rage burned in her stomach.

He thinks he’s so fucking clever.

She ripped her handaxe from her belt.

Well, clever can’t do shit against this.

Her axe thunked into Cossim's stomach. She could barely hear him screaming over the roar of her audience.

“No more snarky comments?”

He coughed uselessly and tried to kick her, but it didn’t land.

“Huh?” Detali leaned down close to his face as she ripped the axe from his stomach. He had pretty eyes, even when his pupils were dilated with terror. “Sorry, hun, I didn’t get that. Try again.”

She straightened and brought the axe down again, this time landing it square in the center of his chest. Her boot pressed down on the butt of the axe, pushing it deeper until there was a satisfying crack. Cossim shuddered and coughed one last time, then went still. Blood leaked from the corners of his slack lips.

“That’s what I thought.”

As camera drones swooped in to get a good close-up of the carnage, a twang of guilt pulled at her chest. She kneeled and closed his eyes with bloody fingertips, leaving streaks of red down his face.

This one was fun, she thought. I hope he sticks around.

She stood and raised her arms to the crowd, soaking in their applause, and she smiled.

“Everyone, our victor: Medusa!”

OC Intros !!

All of my characters are currently in prison at a place called "Neostage". Neostage is luxurious. It doesn't seem like a prison. The prisoners are treated as celebrities but are forced to fight each other to the death each month like gladiators. The more popular and profitable are brought back to life and the least marketable/popular die permanently.

Neostage and the universe it belongs to were created by my amazing creative and talented girlfriend @kabie-whump

Detali Gamble 🐍

Detali is a girlboss. She is in prison for murder, but if you ask her it was vigilante justice. She murdered men who abused women, and she wasn't caught until her 8th kill.

Listen to her playlist here.

Makkel Dextri ☄️

Makkel was created by @kabie-whump and she did this portrait!

Makkel was arrested for smuggling. He is a big softie despite what you would usually see about him in media. He is undefeated in neostage. He is always the last man standing.

You can listen to his playlist here.

Cossim Vect 🧨

Cossim was created by @kabie-whump and she also made this portrait!!

Cossim was arrested for building and selling weapons (mostly bombs). He is a fuckboy (I say with love). He has a special arrangement with his only sponsor, Noroshi Industries, where he can work on developing tech and weapons while in neostage. He frequently loses fights :/
