It's been a while since I've finished a piece, and I ended up having a lot of fun with this one. Very much considering doing a similar one for Rhys and Alyss, and maybe one for Sweets and Vincent. Still not sure.
Since I haven't talked about any of my OCs here, have a bit of info about these two under the cut:
Emmerich (left) is a Third Eye Human; someone who has been "Touched" (has come in contact with) or altered in some way by an eldritch entity. In Em's case, the entity lives in a pocket dimension inside of his motorcycle helmet, and they've formed a close bond. When a being becomes a Third Eye, they usually go through some sort of physical changes, and for Em this mostly involved his eyes and the addition of more forming on the right side of his face over time, which he usually keeps hidden by his hair. He's able to communicate with it wordlessly by being able to sense its wants, needs, and intent, and it does the same with him, though no one knows where this entity came from or why it's living in a helmet, and it seems to want to keep that info to itself. Em is unsure how he hasn't gone completely mad yet from repeated exposure and contact with the entity, but he does know that it isn't hostile towards him or his friends for some reason.
Lucian (right) is a man who tends to keep his past a secret and would rather it remain that way for now. He meets Emmerich pretty early on and promises to help him through a rough situation that reminds him of something he had to live through. He keeps his hands and the lower half of his face covered with padded gloves and any kind of face mask (usually preferring his black neck gaiter or a half Oni mask,) for reasons he keeps to himself. He tends to play the cool, cold, and calculated merc role, but he's also quick to show his softer side when it's needed.
