Just some innocent photography that could have no possible repercussions in the future.

Gonna try making more comics for ya’ll to get to know my characters better! Jeongmin and Makhaira are both monster hunters, but have learned that not all monsters are bad, so they keep the good boys company!

Here There be Monsters: Creature Basic Intros (Part 1)

Fireweed/Misha

Navka, she/her.

A Creature formed from the memory of a deceased human and allowed to "re-live" her life for a hundred years, Fireweed's original self starved to death in the burnt remains of her hometown. She never was that person, really, but the memories feel real.

Quiet, reclusive, and silently pessimistic, Fireweed generally has a poor opinion of everything and everyone around her. She's afraid of suffering, and yet, it's impossible for her to let injustice against others slip by. Despite appearing reserved and self-centered, she cares about others far more than herself. She's soft-hearted and highly compassionate underneath it all.

5'2. Short, scrawny, and bony. Messy, shaggily cut, dull blonde hair with white tips (at first). The color later changes to light gray with blonde tips. Unhealthily pallid skin, perpetual dark circles under her eyes, and a constant melancholy scowl. Deep, raised, raw scars covering her back from her shoulders to her tailbone.

Red Sky

"Kami", she/her.

An unknown type of being that only qualifies as a Creature for lack of a better term. Incomprehensibly powerful, she was sealed for centuries as the only means of keeping her destruction in check... and it's unknown how she's now being controlled.

Perpetually serene and eerily calm, Red Sky is the picture of unfeeling elegance and inhuman composure. However, she has a dangerous appetite for destruction and a complete disregard for the lives of other living things, both barely kept contained. Entirely immortal, she knows she'll outlive everything that holds her back now, so she's content with biding her time and allowing the Mages their inconsequential pretense of power over her.

5'11. Tall, willowy build with long limbs and a narrow torso. Elegant, eerily symmetrical features, and always wearing a serene smile. Azure eyes and light skin, with a beauty mark to the side of her mouth. Straight, silky, crimson-red hair that falls almost to her knees. Perfect posture and graceful movements.

Larkspur

Puca, he/him.

A shapeshifting Creature of ambiguous morals and a troublesome tendency for mischief. While he's not malicious, he's also not particularly attached to any human standards of "good" or "bad". Aloof and disconnected in a polite, unassuming sort of way.

Polite, unobtrusive, and seemingly mild-mannered, Larkspur presents the image of an intelligent and capable, yet gentle and unambitious person. Beyond that, though, he's a fickle troublemaker who prioritizes entertainment over sticking to any particular morals. He'll help others when it suits him, but he'll just as quickly act only for his own benefit and amusement.

5'7. Slight, unassuming build, with careful posture and a way of always fading into the background. Fair skin, fine, almost androgynous features, and a charming smile. Deep, forest-green eyes and dark brown, chin-length, straight hair, usually worn parted neatly down the middle. Dresses sharply.

Makhaira

Manticore, she/her.

A powerful, human-eating Creature who lived as something of a nomad before joining the Organization. Far older than her carefree personality makes her seem, a playful, passionate front hides a surprising amount of wisdom and strength.

Outwardly a passionate, upbeat person with a rather rough demeanor, Makhaira is one of the more pleasant Creatures... at least on the surface. She values her strength and dislikes allowing herself to act on her innate, violent instincts, but while she's generally friendly and approachable, she's capable of a frightening amount of damage when something earns her ire.

5'4. Short, stocky build with heavy muscle and wide shoulders. Dark, warm-toned skin, hazel-green eyes, and expressive, intense features. Thick, golden blonde hair worth close-shorn on one side, and long and wild on the other, with two thin braids (one red, one green) twisted amongst the fluffy mess.

Rothberg

Lesser Grossman, he/they.

A Creature with the unfortunate ability to influence human minds and warp their contents. This ability goes out of control when he's stressed (which is often), and he despises the harm he causes others... if only because it means that he's hated.

Anxious, timid, and distinctly spineless, Roth is cowardly and high-strung despite his intimidating appearance and devastating abilities. He dislikes conflict and drawing too much attention, but his constant stress only brings negative effects upon anyone who gets too close. His innate nature thrives on suffering, but he's too weak-willed to act on those instincts often, if at all.

6'8. Tall, spindly build with awkwardly lanky limbs. Sharp, narrow features, dark eyes, and a permanent expression of nervousness etched into his face. Dull, dark purple hair kept in a slightly shaggy and overgrown bowl cut. Anxious, tense posture; always hunching and shrinking into himself as if he's trying to hide.

Skorpion

Rakshasi, she/her.

A human-eating Creature made for destruction and brutality, with a limitless appetite and a matching craving for violence. Her impulsive pursuit of such pleasures are only restrained by the Mage who sealed and thus controls her abilities.

Rather than thinking about her actions, Skorpion does whatever is fun in the moment. She's highly aggressive, easily provoked, and even her definition of "playing" is far too rough for anyone's liking. Violence is the only thing she knows— whether cruelty or affection, she filters the world through pain and brutality. She's living by her instincts alone, though, not any sort of hatred for others.

6'4. Tall, broad-shouldered build, all lean muscle and visible strength. Ruddy-hued, warm brown skin, red eyes with black sclera, and viciously sharp teeth. Hip-length, coal-black hair with a thick, somewhat fluffy texture, usually worn in a high ponytail. Shockingly agile, and always sporting a ferocious grin.

Magnolia

Rex Vampiris, she/her.

The highest level of the three vampiric species, and more than a little arrogant because of that. While her human appearance is lovely and her behavior is well-controlled, she's a predator at heart... and every so often, that shows through.

Poised, direct, and well-mannered, Magnolia comes across as a refined, confident lady who knows exactly what she's capable of. While she can be haughty and overly particular, she's also practical, grounded, and surprisingly honorable. Despite her ladylike, dignified exterior, she has a short temper underneath it all, and is prone to snarkiness and petty behavior.

5'7. Stocky, curvy build with a soft, feminine shape. Fair, pink-toned skin, bright, yellow-green eyes with long, thick lashes, and sweet, doll-like features. Thick, wavy, pale rose-pink hair, reaching past her waist. Prominent canine fangs that stick out over her lower lip. Takes care of her appearance, always presentable.

Suu

Merman (kind of), he/they.

A merman-like Creature of uncertain species. Guesses range from "water spirit" to "river god", but even he doesn't seem to be too certain... or care too much. He and Omen' are from the same island, and have been close friends for decades.

Simply put, Suu is stupid. Simple-minded, laid-back, and generally oblivious, he floats through life doing whatever he pleases and caring little for any consequences. It's as easy to make him happy as it is to earn his ire, but his emotions are fickle and fade away like the tides. He doesn't like to think about difficult things— and he tends to isolate himself through sheer disinterest in most of it.

6'6. Slim, lanky build that holds far more lean muscle than it appears. Angular features that hover between pretty and slightly inhuman; perpetually slitted eyes and a broad grin with too many teeth. Shoulder blade-length, sleek, inky black hair that's left loose and untrimmed. Swaying, eerie movements.

Omen'-On-Nu

Kapre, he/him.

A tree giant from a remote, isolated island, which he shares with Suu. The two have been close friends for decades, although their opposing personalities often lead to bickering. Since he enjoys company, he's glad to be under the Organization's employment.

Jovial, easygoing, intellectual, and carefree to a fault, Omen' is the kind of person who favors philosophical thinking and deep conversations over too much action of any kind. He's generally social, but has a particular weakness for women, especially those who share his interests. He dislikes unnecessary conflict, yet has a secret fondness for lighthearted tricks.

6'1. Dark, thick hair kept fairly short, with a well-groomed, fluffy beard along his jaw. Deep, forest-green eyes that glow like embers when in low light. Rugged, handsome features, laugh lines around his eyes, and a jovial grin that eases any ill mood. Strong, solid build with heavy muscle, thick limbs and torso.
