there is a fascinating difference between theo/lapin and keradin/lapin within fandom space in that new acoc watchers almost 100% trend toward theo/lapin. it's low hanging fruit! but the thing is I hated theopin so bad when acoc was first airing that I actively suppressed it, refused to talk about it, would draw really good kerapin art whenever I saw a new theopin post out of sheer spite. AND I was friends with most of the biggest d20 artists so most people in that circle avoided drawing them too out of respect for me. what I'm saying is 5 years after acoc aired kerapin still has much much better fanart than theopin simply through the force of my sheer haterism and spite. dozens of people got into acoc because my art of repressed knight/heretic priest he kills goes hard on a level beyond simply knowing who the characters are
