Oh who are all your staff based or inspired by?
Catrina Maravilla: Original Catrina (before she was "Catrina") was based on Ernesto de la Cruz but eventually she became more of an Imelda mixed with La Muerte
Sarafina Abara: A mix between Uru and Sarabi. I wanted a lioness who would be tough love towards Leona (and give him a reason for his fear respect of Savannah women)
Lucien Donadieu: Originally he was based on Sarousch but the more I developed him the more I left that behind and he became more of a twst Madellaine
Emiliano Posada: He became my Ernesto de la Cruz oc. But his UM takes inspiration from Xibalba (gets the skull eyes)
Sergio Rodriguez: I had an Imelda and an Ernesto so I wanted a Hector. Also making him let me work on Catrina's childhood and the dynamic of the Maravilla siblings (another person to know the old Catrina and mourn Dante but he was with the Maravillas for the 10 years Catrina wasn't)
Elysia Di Siena: I had a spell book inspired oc before but I wanted to make a different one (who's skin wasn't literally paper though they might make a come back). Her main inspiration is V from Devil May Cry
Valdis Di Siena: Wanted to keep with Elysia's V inspiration and make a mix of Griffon and Shadow (why he's a cat). More serious than Elysia to balance her out. One loves humanity while one hates humanity.
Lorcan Bellamira: I wanted an attractive vampire with his specific heterochromnia (one brown eye and one pale blue) so I made him for self satisfaction
Aegeus Hexis: I kept working on Galatea and wanted to make her dad a full character. Galatea has no emotions currently towards her death, so Aegeus is the sole emotional look we have at her death (since Loxias blocked it out)
Eztli Maravilla: Listen... I was falling for Zatz from Maya y los tres... So I wanted to make a twst version of him. Plus it was slightly Azteca aka Mexica which then became Mexico and so connected to the Maravillas. And a kind counterpart of death compared to his mom
La Muerte: I wanted a scorned woman who would be the reason for the Maravilla's connection to death. She's who lead the Maravillas to their doom
Deus: Working on Yua, and the book spirit was always a factor of her story but I kept wanting to make them an actual character. I adore snakes so I went with snakes with the added bonus that snakes can eat crows to show him against Crowley
Rontia Chesis:.... Moth man.
