Here are my drawings of my character Magdaline Pazcha-Kollus and her weapons, the Megiddra (with it’s upgraded form) and the Cyber Angel.

When I came up with this character, I had first looked at the movie God’s Not Dead. While I utterly disliked the movie (due to how it makes all atheists to be evil and all Christians good and utterly makes Christians look terrible by doing this), I did like the character Kara (played by Cassidy Gifford) even if the movie didn’t develop her all that much and tried to make her the Eve tempting main character Josh away from God. Because of that, I decided to base a character off her, somewhat.

Keep in mind, what I have of Magdaline’s bio is not based off the bio of Kara’s actress. Anyways, here it is. Magdaline is a citizen of the theocracy of Ecclesia. Born and raised in Cathedral City, the capital of Ecclesia, Magdaline and her mother have face quite a bit of persecution from the citizens of the city who know that she is an illegitimate child. What is known by her mother Bethany and isn’t know to those people and even Magdaline herself is that Magdaline is the illegitimate daughter of Issactalis president Aurum Stadion, conceived years before he met his wife and love of his life Argenta (Aurum used to travel the world trying to learn more about cultures, met Bethany and thus Magdaline was conceived, though he didn’t know about her for years). Due to her illegitimate status being recorded in the dossiers of her, which are looked at by officials of the country for those who may pose a threat and undermine the theocracy, Magdaline and her mother have faced shunning all throughout Ecclesia due to word of mouth.

When she became old enough she decided to join the peacekeeping force of Ecclesia, although she still faced scorn and derision, especially from the Supreme Leader Pius Eckhart and those close to him. While as a peacekeeper she fell in love and had a relationship with Abel Zephoram, although as he fell further and further into the thrall of Supreme Leader Eckhart their relationship fell into decline and disrepair before coming to an end. In addition to that, Magdaline learned ex-Ecclesia peacekeeper, family friend of her mother’s and her own personal mentor Radames Blaze was a member of the Movement Of Reforming Ecclesia which seeked to remove Supreme Leader Eckhart from power, topple the theocracy of Ecclesia and instigate either a democracy or Republic in place of the theocracy, Magdaline opted to join with him whilst serving as an inside man (or woman) to the rebel fighters, having the desire to topple a system where people like her are punished for the circumstances of their birth as well as one that she saw inherently corrupt.

Magdaline was present during the terrorist attack orchestrated by Aurum Stadion during the World Festival when she was in attendance. During the commotion at the stadium where it took place, Aurum saw her and realized she looked like his old love Bethany Kollus and as a result sent an informant to gather info on Magdaline, which let him know she was his daughter. As a gift of sort for his illegitimate child, Aurum sent to her one of the first perfected models of laser blades made in Issactalis, which Magdaline christened ‘Cyber Angel’.

The first image in this post is the first drawing I did of Magdaline. I felt like giving her an outfit based off a nun but in hindsight I think the outfit doesn’t look too well designed, and as a result when I feel like redrawing her I’m gonna fix it alongside her hairstyle. As for the second drawing, that is what I envision Magdaline would look like in what I would dub “Season 4″ of my series. The reason the Cyber Angel is seen in this one and not the first was because I hadn’t come up with the idea of giving her a laser blade yet, though she does get it when she still has the nun-like outfit in my story during Season 1.

Personality-wise, Magdaline is someone who is driven, meticulous, calculating, somewhat manipulative, at times egocentric and most important of all compassionate, all of which due to her rather unenviable childhood. Due to her childhood and her time under Radames’ mentorship Magdaline has learned to be compassionate to those who go through rough times and have been dealt bad cards in their lives. However she can be calculating and manipulative in how she deals with people both allies and enemies. Also due to her experiences, she has a driven and meticulous personality, though at times she is capable of rolling with the punches, so to speak. As a defense mechanism she can be rather egocentric and prone to arrogance, which at times screws her up as well as what she plans.

Magdaline’s first name is so because on a Christian radio station my brother listened to one time, I heard someone who was calling the station for one of the programs was named Magdalene. However, I chose to replace the second-to-last E with an I because that’s how I thought it was spelled (silly me, right?) though I do intend to keep her name as such. Pazcha comes from the word for Easter, which in modern times is seen as when Jesus Christ was crucified only to rise from the dead three days later. Kollus is supposed to be a sort of play on the world colosseum, which is a synonym for stadium.

Magdaline’s weapons of choice are a magic gun called the Megiddra and also later on a laser blade called the Cyber Angel. Magic guns like the Megiddra are the one of the oldest types of magiteck weaponry in the setting of World Storiya. They are designed to look like flintlock pistols but are powered by a type of magic crystal which condenses mana into a hard, bullet-like form which can be fired, although it can’t be fired too much in one setting lest it overheat. Said crystals are injected through the bottom of the handle of the gun which opens up and can be closed. The Cyber Angel is a perfected magiteck laser blade weapon designed in Issactalis by Aurum Stadion and the Issactalis Magiteck Military Weapons Development Team. This type of weapon also uses mana crystals to work, though unlike the magic guns solidifies mana into a type of plasma-like blade for use that is capable of cutting through metals with ease. Both weapons also have mythril in their construction to make them work easier due to the properties of the metal in question.

Never thought I’d have so much typed for a character in a side story (albeit one of the main players in the side story about Ecclesia). Anyways, like and reblog if you enjoyed the drawings and the long description.
