#swarm thing

[zlukaka]

This character is a part of Eyes of the Swarm, my and @luffik​​’s visual novel in development. Any feedback/comments will be loved & treasured!

This is Thing.

Some say he is the result of a beastrider taking a liking to his mount, others think it was the other way around, or that he’s something that crawled out of a different realm or a lab. What ever Thing is, he is not human. 

Despite his spiky appearance, Thing is a peaceful timid creature who just wants to be left alone. Sadly that makes him even more of a target in the beastriders’ eyes - freaky appearance would have been forgivable had he been a killing machine. Alas with his disproportionate limbs and lack of moxie, Thing is doomed to be a scapegoat.

Unless someone takes pity on the poor misshapen creature. But what would a charitable person be doing in the Swarm...

Aw, thank you for the interest. :D

Thing has one small non-functional wing on his back, but it’s usually folded and can’t be seen in that picture I drew for his profile, so here’s an old concept doodle of him freaking out. He’s trying to look fierce, the poor bastard.

Beasts come in all shapes and sizes, there’s a lot of freaky looking crossbreeds. @luffik will eventually make a post about them too. Thing is the only humanoid one, though, and the only one that speaks.

He would’ve loved having a brother or a friend. But so far no such luck.

Ah, I’m so glad to see you like him! 

The game will give you a chance to protect and help this poor fellow and discover his origins. He could use some help, or a lot of it, actually.
