Armstrong if he was a Plaguewalker~ I'm very proud of how this turned out! Someone mentioned this concept when I was nerding out about Monkey Wrench one night, and the thought never left my brain.

A little experimental comic, featuring how Prion and Tunic first met.

Ichneumon, the fae who stole Tunic's original name. For the majority of the story, she attempts to hunt down Prion and stop them from restoring Tunic to power.

I stylized fae as having smooth lineart for their insectoid parts, while leaving the rest of the body rough. The fae world is on a different dimensional level to the human world, but overlaps in a few ways, leading to the combination of appearances.

Henry, Prion's childhood friend (or more...?). As Prion's powers in disease became more pronounced, they were brought to a leper colony, where they met Henry. The two became quick friends- the kind where you don't remember how you met yet it seemed you were inseparable from day 1. But of course, idyllic childhood settings only last so long...

Henry had always sought a higher calling, training for knighthood. And he was getting close- he had often talked with local visiting knights, proving his swordsmanship to them and making a name for himself.

Prion, meanwhile, was content to live out their days in the colony. In their most intense fever dreams they were able to contact a mysterious entity; one that could help them master their power, bring them closer to control. It was in these dreams Prion learned the true name of Tunic, but was still too far to put a face to it.

One fateful day, a group of knights came to see Henry, offering him a chance to train under them for knighthood. Far across the land, Ichneumon succeeded in stealing Tunic's name. This event directly influenced Prion, whose powers warped and broke out of control. Upon seeing the diseased wizard, the knights decided to give Henry his first mission- slay the plaguewalker. Desperate to achieve his dream, Henry chased Prion throughout the colony, up to the waterways. In a final confrontation, unable to force himself to kill his friend, Henry threw Prion into the waterway, letting the river decide their fate.

Henry would go on to become a respected knight, but the guilt of betraying his friend hung heavy over him. Prion, expelled from the only home they had, would spend the next twenty years migrating from dungeon to dungeon, managing their powers in the only way they knew how. The memory of Henry hung over them too, taunting them with the constant question, why?

With the finding of Tunic, it seems their paths will cross again.

Prion and Tunic, from my latest universe Plaguewalker. I envisioned Plaguewalker as a sort of anti-rpg: you'd crawl through various dungeons full of enemies, but instead of fighting them head on, you'd carefully spread various diseases and ailments. All while incubating new ones, harvesting humors, and other management sim elements.

Blog Info/Pinned Post

Welcome to @psycada’s oc blog. While this is not necessarily a NSFW blog, my work is meant for an 18+ audience. Please see under the read more for info.

#plaguewalker - Prion, a wizard whose powers revolve around disease, and Tunic, a demon trapped in fabric, travel across a plague-torn land in order to find a way to restore it.

#paravirus - Tae, an average college student, is infected by the sentient man-made parasite Hirudi.

#mutualism - Roc, a disgraced harpy eagle prince, journeys across several islands to answer his question: what is humanity?

#midnight arcade - A collection of entities living within an arcade, with each entity embodying an aspect of the arcade experience.

And several other individuals, who will have their own tags eventually. 

Since childhood I have been obsessed with the inner body, biology, organs, the process of eating, disease, parasites, etc. It is a facet of my autistic special interest. You will find this reflected in my work no doubt. Much of my work is also “fetish adjacent”- with an interest in the inner body comes terms like vore and endosoma. I would not say this is an outright fetish blog (I have a separate account for that, after all) but there will be fetish work featured, and it will not always be clear whether or not something is truly “fetish”. There are also other actual sexual aspects that make my work 18+, so please keep this in mind. I will tag things to the best of my ability.

I tried very hard to separate the fetish from the story, or to decide what to categorize things as, and I believe the lines are too blurry. To kill the fetish is to kill the story. To me, autistic special interest and a fetish are the same feeling, under different names. There is a substantial amount of people who interact with their fetish in a SFW way, and those who interact with their special interest in an NSFW way. In the past my work has been accused of being fetish art, both when it wasn’t intended as such, and when it was intended as such and was clearly labeled. I put this paragraph here in hopes that people with similar feelings will see it, and understand the freedom of embracing their strange obsessions.
