snippets of skullgirls lore weren’t the only thing i got from alex ahad at magfest

big ol’ messy reference pile for my skullgirls fancharacter, silverwind! (and her arm, camahueto) this was…only supposed to be a fun exercise in putting a design to a few sentences of text description. but um. things got wildly out of hand. you’ll certainly be seeing more of them later.
alright bucko I'm back with some questions about silver!! how exactly did she lose her arm? and how did camahueto become her new arm? did she take the new addition well?
silverwind never really “lost” her arm, in the same sense i’m sure filila still had hair before Samson replaced it.
unfortunately, skullgirls canon never really gives us anything about how people like….first come across or encounter parasites. i’m hesitant to give this a concrete answer since i don’t really have any definite angle to come at it from.
but, the general scenario is this:after annie thrashed her first couple attempts at getting the skull heart, silver withdrew from directly pursuing it and spent a good while doing a lot of travelling, looking for whatever oddball artifacts may be able to help out, [the sg universe certainly has a lot of weird magic bullshit floating around in it, so there’s got to be something out there she can use, right?] it was during this general time of wandering and exploration and poking around god knows where that she came across camahueto.
i’d like to believe someone getting a parasite is usually a willing agreement or exchange from both parties. she agreed to let camahueto become her arm, probably just with the thought/intent he’d make her stronger and give her an edge at getting the heart. the specifics of how all that works, well.. it’s not stuff i’ve done much speculation on yet.
anyway, in saying that, she...definitely did not take very well to having him at first. she kinda thought he’d be more like a tool to use at her leisure than this whole other Person with their own desires and inputs that’s now with her at all times. [given the stigma on them, i doubt the laymen knows much about parasites] silverwind is terribly hard-headed; it’s damn near impossible to change her mind once she has it made up about something, and she really doesn’t take well to people opposing her goals. they grated on eachother real bad for the first...oh, year or so, but she eventually mellowed out a little and started like. actually listening and trying to cooperate. these days they do get along most of the time.
most of the time. he can still be annoying with his chattiness on occasion :p
it’s very important to have discussions w/ your friends about how your characters use or generally interact with technology as both a character and world building thing, ESPECIALLY when it comes to communication, and it also just tends to lend itself to a lot of ridiculous and fun scenarios, such as:
do you ever justh ave like. a REALLY good idea
awsejsswrskjf
silverwind is Good and I can't wait to see more of her n hueto!!!
im like… crying i cannot believe how much all yall like her and what a strong response she’s gotten thank you so much……
if you really can’t wait you can ask me shit about her i will be all too happy to oblige with more doodles,,
I don't know how much thought you've put into a specific moveset for Silverwind but I think I would be really neat if Camahueto held on to the glove when the tendrils separate. That way it can always go back on when necessary and it would be kinda funny for them to use it like they did in old 1900s films and slap an enemy in the face with just the glove!
ohoho
nyohohohoho
as it happens i have put quite a lot of thought into that :3c i’m by no means doing a Full moveset because that’s just way too many, but Someday™ i’ll get this finished and posted…..someday.
the stuff with the glove is just kinda. whatever happens with it happens. like when he inverts it just kind of Goes In There and then it’s There again; like how beo and val pull a lot of their stuff out of nowhere and then it just sorta..goes back behind them and vanishes in the cooldown frames of the animation. there are gonna be a few w/ his tendrils separated [probably aerial grab?] and i do like this idea for what to do with it; only other thing i got really is just having silver take it on/off him, which is..less efficient. plus a simple glove slap might be a fun counterbalance to her generally Very Heavy moves; if silverwind is gonna hit you, she’s gonna hit you HARD, but hueto may not always be so heavy-handed :p
okay @pasteldot im sorry but this is like the most wholesome tag you could have possibly left i couldn’t not
