I finally finished this one! I started this sketch ages ago after the new updates to Praetorium, but between masters classes I was only able to get it done now during a vacation to the beach lol My Warrior of Light preparing for round two with Lahabrea.

I don't know about anyone else, but since my WoL is a monk and I already headcanon him as being able to do some wild kung fu shit, taking this to a dragon ball z style super sayian mode was like HELL YEAH

more headcanon shit under the cut!

For Kima this is something that only happens when he is tapping into his full reservoir of power. This was not something he was actually at the level of unleashing at his own prior to this moment, but rather it was waiting untapped until Hydelyn gave him a little "push".

I don't really have any plans on a name for this form without it sounding terribly goofy lol but I'm playing around with the moniker of "The Hand of the Mother" as a counter part to Minfilia's later title

While signs of it had brief flashes since, Kima isn't able to tap into this form fully again until the battle with the Endsinger. The power of his friends flowing through him triggers the change again, and now that he's fully aware this time he understands then how this power can be manifested. Through the desire to protect those he loves dear. After this point he's able to release the floodgates at will, though he rarely has the need to as of yet.

As a little homage to DBZ, I mirrored this moment with Goku's first super sayian transformation. In terms of design, I decided to err with just the aether overflowing causing an updraft, thus the super sayian style hair, though it doesn't actually change color [the lighting in these scene just happens to be real intense lol]. Hilariously the fluffier hair and combination of his fangs had an unplanned oni-like effect, but I love it lmao. The real change is from his eyes turning from their regular gold to a glowing blue. And in this case, since the game decided to have him be blasted with a evil spirit bomb, I decided I may as well go the whole way lmao and make him "battle damaged" too XD His outer tunic got obliterated [as did the straps that held on the shoulder guards and bracers]. He probably had to visit Widargelt after for a replacement lolol

Bonus in progress pic bc I had to cover up those back muscles sadly lololol

I FINALLY FINISHED THE THING

I have been working on and off on a website for my WoL where I can dump all his info, pictures, and art into one place. It's still not really "done" and I haven;t finished a couple other pages I want to add, but its done enough that I feel I can post lol

Right now the site is up to the point of the end of ARR, and while I have made an effort to make it sprout friendly its not able to be wholly spoiler free, so keep this in mind

I'm going to link this onto his profile post as well, but updates will probably be attached to this post

Mdee was so epic today as a monk, tanking in several duties, killing bosses with limits that I started to think to go back to monk, lol But it's so a mess of a job...
