The Brain rot is strong, so have some more FS!COTL Au! would have posted this sooner but I got distracted losing my mind over trying to figure out how to draw Shadow (because he finally has a proper design!)
But! I Finished the Designs for the three bishops, yes three, Because Leshy is still leashy, I like him too much. Since theres no difference with Leshy, I'll start with Heket and who takes her place :)
When deciding who i wanted to be the bishops i was mostly pulling shit out of thin air, but I liked Onox for Anura! Anura is still we... Anura! but its environment more points to it once having been a great vast desert, that was mostly consumed with plant life once more, Vio never travels out to the still just straight up a desert part of Anura, but its heat and the dry-ness of the environment can still be felt in the aired atmosphere.
Onox, instead of being a Frog is a Bull in this! I also like to imagine that he's almost like Mooshrooms from Minecraft so he has mushrooms that grow or stick to him
unlike the other two, like Leshy i think he only has one phase of the fight instead of two
His breast plate is more like that of a peascot belly style armor from the 17th century than like his usual armor (I just want to make something that would be easier for me to draw to be fully honest;;)
He's more like Shadow's Uncle than he is an older brother
Bellum i felt fitting for the god or pestilence and Bishop of Anchordeep! His area was once lanayru and the primary port too the great sea, the old rotting docks are still there to this day an outside of the Dark woods, is the primary place to really feel that there once was a great kingdom that once existed on the land now known as the Outerwilds
Bellum would count to being Leshy and Shadow's cousin, though He was closer with Leshy having been rather unervered by Shadow when he was younger
Anchordeep I imagine in this version would have area's that have life draining areas similar to the mechanics in Phantom hour glass's temple of the ocean King! (maybe Vio has to traverse the temple itself and that's where Bellums temple is?)
I like too imagine once he show's himself to Vio once more instead of just making some of his followers sick, he partly posses one of Vio's followers (maybe one of his disciples?) and forces Vio to fight them as a mini boss
I think Bellum used his crown to speak, so when Vio brings him back from purgatory He uses a form of sign, Vio i think would assign him a translator that would more become his assistant in the medical ward as well (Hyrule maybe?)
Vaati! the eldest of the bishops, and the God of war and Wisdom, Vaati isn't just the eldest of the four, their incredibly old, old enough that sometimes when their mind is more put together their able to tell tales of the land that was once known as Hyrule (not the person, though that is how the deer chose his name) at least what their able to remember since Shadow's sealing. Vaati is the Bishop of silkcradle! not quite sure which area it once was just yet but its possible where Hyrule castle once was, Maybe Vaati's temple is the old Hyrule castle? and that's how they were able to preserve so many books for the ancient era.
Their the lore keeper of sorts, both before and during their time in the Cult of Spirits,
They also acted as further education for those in the cult who wish it,
they had found and practically raised Shadow and Leshy,
for some reason they seem to almost know Shadow and Vio, and even Vio's brothers as if they once knew each other in a past life (perhaps, they did?)
Vaati spends more of their time in their library in the basement, normally only ever coming out at night
they seem to be the most Wary of the Pit down there the most as well for some reason, almost as if they can sense something down there that even Vio and Shadow can't
