drew my au characters as the seven deadly sins + fear!!! i added fear bc of a concept from an old eddsworld au where fear was in control of the sins.
the explanation for each sin will be under the cut
enjoy!!!!
so first of we have william as pride. easy to explain, he's your local neurotypical narcissist^tm and has a lot of pride in himself to the point he uses it against others. (top middle)
alex is wrath because he has an extremely violet personality and will use violence to get whatever he wants. (top right)
jefferey afton (william's uncle) is gluttony not rly bc of food. i looked up the actual definition of gluttony (in terms of christianity) is basically wanting so much food you withhold it from people who need it. for jefferey though he withholds a sense of compassion for those who are "lesser" than him. (middle right)
michael is greed because he lets his sense of "i'm better than my stupid father" (not really in some aspects :/ ) and is extremely selfish as he wants to rule the afterlife on his own. (bottom right)
bethany (carlton burke's mother) is envy, as she was extremely envious of kathryn because she was essentially wealthy due to being married to william. she lets envy control her life and it makes her do horrible things to get what she wants. (bottom left)
john is sloth because he kinda adds nothing to the cult after act 2. it's also because hedoesn't put effort into his crimes, simply leaving bodies in his basement to rot before he even tried disposing of them. (middle left)
ryan is lust because when he did crimes with william, he mostly lured men with his charm (plus he used his identity as trans to make straight men think he was a "girl") and then william would kill them (sometimes ryan would do everything and william was just there to help hide the body, collect remnant, etc.). (top left)
then you have vannie/the magic rainbow, who represents fear. she is the manifestation of great, unknown power, and the fact that her strength is unknown strikes fear into the hearts of all who encounter her. she essentially has become a goddess with the power to do whatever she wants. even william is afraid of her because she was everything he wanted to be, and he had to fight her in order to restore fnaf world to its former glory. (center)
PLEASE NOTE: i did NOT make ryan lust bc he's a trans sex worker. he would've been lust before the trans headcanon anyways because of his charismatic and charming character. i am not trying to say that sex workers and trans people are just lustful people and that bullshit. ryan himself struggled in that industry, having a very hard time coping with such a ruthless work environment and he just wanted to get out, but he couldn't. the sex industry did help him develop his character though, as he used what he learned to lure men into a death trap, but that doesn't mean that he is happy about how he got that trait.
if you got to the end of this, thank you so much for reading!!!!! i haven't rambled in a long time and im rly excited to hopefully share more from my au to you guys!!!
"You can break a shovel when you break new ground.
You're digging dirt up when you dig deep down.
You should know better than that by now.
It's not profound to know that you can never know!"
i had been listening to "The Song with Five Names" by will wood for a while and i just fucking love it so much that i based this drawing off of it. it kinda looks like the cover to like a comic or a fanfic, but i'll let future me decide if i wanna do anything with it or not. i am rly proud of this though!!!
anyways, uh, i was kinda thinking that the cult had a meeting and just randomly decided it was gonna be held in william's basement, and at this point william and henry had been living together (most likely married but im not sure abt that yet) for a bit. henry got up in the middle of the night after having some trouble sleeping, heard noises in the basement, and went to check it out. he then walks in on what william calls their "club meeting". henry doesnt really question it since it's the middle of the night and is extremely tired. he hangs out with them for a while not paying attention to what they're saying and he eventually falls asleep. he then starts having dreams of the members trying to get him to join them, and it scared the living hell out of henry. whenever he would bring it up to william, he would deny everything. henry was left to question his sanity for the rest of the day...
quick explanation for this: elizabeth was originally locked in her room at home when william found out she told charlie from michael. lizzie tried getting to charlie and warning her before he hurt her, so she escaped through her bedroom window. she tried looking for charlie inside before seeing a horrifying sight outside. she went out to get a closer look and see charlie lying there in a puddle of vomit. she carefully checks for breathing or a pulse, but neither are present. she runs to henry, who is coincidentally with william. it then leads to this scene and an old drawing from a while back i wont be linking bc i might just redo that one, so expect that soon ig? idk though.
first day of pride month let me provide y'all some of the gayest people in my au in some funky gay little outfits <333333 (that unfortunately aren't canon to the au :( )
so we have lovecore henry (act 3 version), villaincore william, angelcore ryan (act 1 version) , and ethereal+princesscore+rainbowcore vannie. i mainly just started doing this for fun before pride month but since most of my characters are gay why not post them now?
anyways, happy pride month everyone!!!!!! i hope you guys have a wonderful time this month to celebrate yourselves <33333
