I haven't drawn Scoros since I included him in that mafia piece and I thought I'd fix that. I like to think him and Cullen were besties when they were in the mob together. Scoros definitely wasn't the best influence on him though lmao.
Finally finished my line up of my mob members, (which took forever btw). They are part of a miinuvian organized crime group known as the Mothia, and below I'll introduce everyone:
The Boss -
Princess Solen Flame, rogue Queen of the Fire Ant hive. She has had a grudge against the hive ever since her rightful place as Queen was usurped from her by Maculini, a Blue Alcon butterfly with the power to use her pheromones' to mind control the ants, tricking them into making her their new Queen
She started the Mothia as a means of enacting her revenge and creating her own army of loyal followers. However no one knows this truth about her. As far as everyone else knows, she is a mysterious figure whom everyone believes to be a Cinnabar moth, as she hides her identity from her former hive.
She runs her gang with the grace, intellect, and ruthlessness' of an ant queen, and goes to great lengths to make sure everyone in the gang knows their place and stays in line.
The Recruiter -
Arressa is a emerald cockroach wasp and Solen's right-hand woman. She's one of the few people that know the truth about Solen and shares an intimate relationship with her.
Arressa uses her beauty and charm to scout out fresh meat to recruit to the gang, and she has a knack for finding the down-trodden and desperate. If they say no, she also has a bad habit of taking people out for a one night stand they don't come back from.
The Bounty Hunter -
Tox is an elephant mosquito and a high ranking captain in the mothia. He is stoic and quiet, and is always willing to do what needs to be done with cold calculation. Normally he is managing drug runs and other missions in the mob, and making sure things get done and the mob gets paid, but if anyone breaks the rules and gets too far out of line, he's the one that's called to take care of things.
Tox is a flying sniper who does not rest until his target is a cold corpse on the ground. Very few have ever gotten away from him alive, and he never forgets their faces.
The Chemist -
Melle is a miller moth with an affinity towards chemistry. She is incredibly intelligent and is responsible for much of the chemical weapons and explosives that the mothia utilize. She is also responsible for processing the drugs that the mob peddles.
She is an introverted person, often demanding her personal space in her lab and getting frustrated when people interrupt her while working. She also has a bad habit of inhaling a lot of dangerous fumes from her work, resulting in her often having headaches and being physically weaker than the rest of the crew.
The Wild Card -
Scoros is a man who loves to be sent on a violent mission. He was once a private detective who was tracking down a murderer, who rigged his home with explosives, killing her girlfriend at the time and leaving him with severe head trauma and brain damage. When he recovered, he tracked the criminal down and beat him to death along with his family, and supposedly also cannibalized their bodies. He frequently makes morbid jokes about having 'eaten a baby.'
After this brutal crime, he found himself in the mothia, where he could release is new aggressive tendencies by killing people the mob wants dead. Often works alongside Tox on hit missions.
The Muscle -
Luc Pincer is a man who joined the mob to pull himself out of hardship and starvation. After witnessing a close family member being brutally beat by overzealous Fire Ant soldiers, he has had beef with them ever since.
In the Mothia, he acts as a body gaurd not just for Solen, but any other high ranking member. His sheer size and his massive pincers are enough to make anyone second guess trying anything stupid while he's around. While he doesn't enjoy killing, he'll do it if he has to.
The Decoy -
This little guy is actually my friend @lexezombie's beefly OC Bylie, so I can't speak for him entirely, but I wanted to include him in the picture.
I imagine he uses his looks to trick people into letting their guard down around him, despite him being a ruthless killer. He is obsessed with Tox.
The Runner (The Traitor) -
Cullen was at the time, one of the newer members of the mob. A mosquito down on his luck, he saw his first taste of truth power and respect when he joined the Mothia. He worked the frontlines, running drugs and selling them to earn money for the mob. He was good at it, but soon his crippling addictions got the better of him and he started skimming money and supply off the top of his sales.
When he was caught, he was hunted down by Tox, who was able to shoot him in the eye, but somehow the bug survived and fled town and hasn't been seen since.
The things we do for our passion, eh? I usually don't dance on set (well, sometimes) but had to for a light test prior to a job. Good timing on the pix - Seb.
