#metal element

[emmasmoke8]

For a while now, I've been thinking about Flambert in terms of the Chinese elements because you very clearly have fire and metal. Today, I looked at the wiki for it because that's how I begin all my big research endeavors, and guys, there was a treasure trove of information right there at the beginning

First, I think the use of 'destroys' and 'insults' is hilarious. How many times has Flambae tried destroying Robert, only for Robert to end up insulting him?

Second, metal and fire relate in three different ways: 1) Inter-regulating: Fire melts/refines/shapes metal 2) Overacting: Fire melts metal 3) Counter-acting: Metal deenergizes/conducts heat away from fire

Overacting is what they've been this entire time, but in a relationship, Flambae inter-regulates Robert by helping him get better (diet, working out, loving himself), and Robert counter-acts Flambae by helping him control the flame and is the medium in which the 'heat' is brought to where it needs to be

Thirdly, there was one more chart I thought was interesting

There's a few of these I'm sure I don't need to explain, so let me just talk about the ones I think need a little extra clarity

Flambae - Tongue relates both to sexuality and to his cooking (the same place taste comes from). Bitterness comes from parts of his relationship towards Mecha Man and what he feels toward Robert. Feathered is because this man is the phoenix. He's the feathered bird destined to rise from the ashes, reborn in the honor of heroism

Robert - I gave him nose because this man's nose is always bleeding. I felt like 'senior age' was also funny to give him just because he's so disconnected from everything. And 'furred' is entirely because I personally use the metaphor of him being a beast of love, creature of hope, fights like a wild animal, these violent things given direction by that spark of heroism Robert innately has

Anyway, I'm going to do more research and fine every quote I can that'll apply to these two

Now it is time for a rare metal element.

Metal element, it is not just a chaotic brute force, but a form, given a purpose. It can be unyielding shield that stands against darkness and sharp edge that cuts throught chaos. Let's sharp your skills into the weapons against the Dark Master and harden your scales into armor.

Something like that could be said by Metal Guardian.

Part 2! A few designs are not quite fully established, but it is what it is :) the next set may take me a bit longer as I've not sketched them out yet

Coloured columns (left to right): plant, stone, metal

Rows (top to bottom): taurus, virgo, capricorn

The second of the heralds to be introduced will be this guy.

Real name: Keith Wielder

Player Name: Zeronni “Zero” Redfrost

He based his character on his favorite video game series, MegaMan Zero, but expanded upon it from there.

He is a half human, half steel dragon fighter and electric elemental mage. He is adept at sword fighting and close range combat.

Keith wanted to give his character all of MegaMan Zero’s weapons, but eventually settled for a sword, a longbow and a polearm for short and long-range attacks. He also created his own version of the Shield Boomerang.

Because he’s half human, the man whose dead body he takes over is human too. In his case, however, the soul refuses to leave and continually tries to take back control of the transformed body.

Keith himself has served in the military and started playing Sengoku Rift after he was honorably discharged due to an injury. He is childhood friends with Ichiro (Hiroshi) and was pleasantly surprised to reunite with him in-game.

The Tiger, the Dragon, and the Snake under the house of Metal.

The god/desse/s of the Metal House were often ambitious and aggressive folks; that’s why they ruled over the war, metalsmith, and charming beauty respectively.

That’s 9/12 zodiacs! 3 more coming soon ^^

Craft angel (metal element)

🛠 Their variants are Centimane, Cyclops, and Giant. Centimane craft angels are able to multitask with their many arms, while the cyclops variant has an eye for detail and the giant variant tends to have the most physical strength.

🛠 While the teeth of most metal angels are very sharp, craft angels have blunt teeth with a fairly strong bite force matched only by their hunt angel cousins. The only difference being that craft angels almost never bite people.

🛠 Craft angels work with metal, stone, wood, glass, crystal, etc to create weapons & armour for their fellow angels, and are well suited to meet a range of (oddly specific) requirements. No two completed works are the same as even a replica will have its unique quirks.

🛠 Cloth angels (spirit element) are thought to be the counterpart to craft angels as they work with yarn, thread, fabric, etc. The two angel types work together harmoniously.

Angel sketches loosely based off of paldean pokémon. First is a dream angel (meowscarada), second is a craft angel (tinkaton), and third is an illusion angel (tatsugiri).

Uproar angels (metal element)

Some pretty bad photos of my designs for uproar angels, with their variants: Enrage, Rampage, and Sabotage.

Uproar angels are the warriors of the metal element, and they are keen to uphold their element's moral code (advocate for the survival & protection of people, do not strike against those in need). The values of the metal god, Chrogal, tend to be focused around hard work and obedience however this does not mean that Chrogal believes that complete surrender is sensible. When the mistreatment of workers or similar cases arise, Chrogal's rarely-seen wrath is incurred and the uproar angels come into play.

They often become the symbols of unions or protests, and the emblem of a bird's foot with an eye in the centre is used as a last warning to the corrupt. Although they are not brutes and will think before they act, it is not recommended to call on these angels unless you are certain you want their help. Metal element angels don't like to stop until the job is done.
