[callisto-art]

Hello! I just posted a little compilation of some TOH animatics I've had in my drafts for ages, because I haven't had time to animate anything new recently.

I made some of these over a year ago, and my art style has changed a bit, and my animation has definitely improved, but I think that they're still fun! :) I hope you enjoy them!

Something wicked this way comes

[solifelessblog]

Just a wip, but I just finished the rough draft and just decided to post it lmao

I’m really tired lmao, I’ll try more on the next thing I have planned rn this was mostly to do a quick thing to get back into it

[ashtreeeee]

a few days ago i was looking through my old projects and stumbled upon this animation,, and decided to finally finish it :)

it’s actually from 2 years and exactly 10 days ago, entirely new animated pieces are only the first 3, and i just fixed the animation on the old last 3? sshots or so. the name of the song translates to Curfew and for those who can’t type in russian the title is: Комендантский Час - Электрофорез.

i also made a short translation!! each new line is exactly the line that shows on the screen and uhh,, i hope this explanation is not confusing, but anyways, the translation is:

and while it all

hasn’t happened yet

don’t go out during the thunderstorm

to that beech forest

a drip

of blood

and a pinch

of salt

and two teardrops

of big sorrow

and a handful of soil

from the minefield

wine

and gunpowder

i simply have too many good ideas for Emperor Belos/Philip animatics, so i hope you will enjoy at least one of my many projects. maybe i’ll post more animations here later lol

Can you believe that this show started 5 years ago?

This is an animatic that I made for my TOH AU, Emperor of the Owls. I made it a couple of years ago, and am now finally posting it. I was originally going to animate the last bit of the song, but didn't end up doing that.

Basically, in this AU, Eda and Belos’s curses are switched. Eda is… whatever Belos was, and Belos/Phillip is the Owl Beast. Their characters have been slightly altered in this AU. Belos is a caring uncle, and truly cares about Hunter, but his curse has caused him to hurt Hunter unintentionally, and he carries a fair amount of guilt, because of it. 

By the time that the Day of Unity arrived, he wasn’t sure of what to do. Go back to the Human Realm, leaving the Boiling Isles as one of the monsters he sought to destroy? What would Hunter think, when he realized that his uncle was going to destroy the Boiling Isles?

Eda is referred to as the Beast Queen. Everyone who joined the Emperor’s Coven had their palismen destroyed. Eda would steal them, using them as a means of keeping her curse at bay, though it truly only made it harder to stay in control, the more of them she consumed. When she was younger, Eda went behind her father’s back, stealing some of the palismen that he had carved, after having destroyed and consumed one by accident and realizing that it kept her from transforming. She was then caught, and after a stressful confrontation, she transformed into the beast, hurting her father by accident.

Lilith cursed her sister, turning her into a monster. 

Over the years, Lilith made many attempts to convince Eda to join the Emperor’s Coven. Of course, Eda never did. 

One night, Lilith located Eda yet again, and told her about how she should join the coven, and how the Emperor could heal her curse, etc.

Eda told her sister to get lost, as she didn’t have the time to deal with her. Especially not at that very low point in Eda’s life. She didn’t take her and Raine’s breakup very well, and had no way of hiding the curse that caused a rift between them. The closest thing she could do was hide it using a concealment stone. But she still knew what was lying underneath the illusion; and so did the rest of the Boiling Isles. 

She had to deal with raising King now, as well. Between her internal struggles with her curse, trying to take care of King and hide the curse from him, dealing with her mother trying to heal her curse, and Lilith’s constant attempts at getting her to join the Enperor’s coven, Eda was not in a good place, and her feelings were severely clouding her judgement. 

So, Lilith’s words gave her an idea; she had found someone to blame for her pain.

Lilith always went on about how Belos could heal her curse, and how powerful he was… If he could heal her curse… maybe he was the one who gave it to her. After all, her first transformation happened on the day she fought her sister for a spot in the Emperor’s coven. 

She convinced herself that Belos had wanted to keep her from ever joining his coven; that he had a vision, and saw that she was a threat, and was too powerful, so he gave her this curse to keep her from reaching her true potential.

So she plotted her revenge. She would curse him, and make him feel her pain. However, similarly to King’s dad, the Titan himself, she attacked the wrong person, and dragged him down for nothing.

Not that this version of Belos is entirely innocent.

Belos’s magic was purely artificial; without his staff, all he could do was put on a show and make it look like he had magic of his own. Even his armour could generate artificial magic. But, without all of that, he was nothing more than a human made to look like a witch. Though he had his ways of staying alive for so many years.

Eda snuck into the Emperor’s castle at night, using her curse to get around unseen. After a while of looking, she found the Emperor’s room. She wasn’t known as the most powerful witch and beast on the Boiling Isles for nothing. 

She cursed the Emperor, though she had no idea how long that curse would last for, nor how long he would have to suffer from it.

The next day, Belos sat in his throne room, listening to Kikimora and Lilith going over their reports, and Hunter—who was just a child, who would someday be the next Golden Guard—stood with Belos, as he always did.

All was proceeding as usual, until Belos tried to stand, only to fall to his knees in pain. In moments, he was transformed into a feathered beast. By the time he turned back, and realized what had happened, several Coven scouts had lost their lives, and Kikimora, Lilith, and Hunter were injured. He was horrified by what he had done—his “nephew” was covered in his own blood.

Shortly after that, Hunter ran away, afraid that the Owl Beast would suddenly reappear, and kill him. Eventually, Lilith was able to find him. She managed to take part of Hunter’s wounds, but no amount of magic could undo the damage that had been done.

Belos’s curse became one of the best kept secrets in the Emperor’s Coven, and his armour was altered to accommodate each new, beastly feature as the curse ate away at his human body.

After Eda had been found in Raine’s place (during the season 2 finale) she was taken before Belos. Since she met Luz, Eda had started to regret what she had done—especially when she found out that Lilith was the one who had cursed her, not Belos. What would Luz and King think, when they found out what she had done, and what her reasons were for doing it? And what about Lilith? She had many scars that the Owl Beast had given her.

Having been given a chance to distract the Emperor and to come clean, she admitted that she was the one who cursed him; which made Belos want nothing more than to kill Eda for what she had done. Within moments, he had transformed into the Owl Beast. 

Hunter had learned that the spell that Lilith used to take on part of Eda’s curse was the same one that she used to use on his wounds when he was younger. He had to use it one day, when he couldn’t get Belos to turn back from the Owl Beast, no matter how hard he tried. So now Hunter was cursed as well; and Belos resented Lilith for ever teaching him the spell.

Once he found out that Eda had cursed him; and was the reason why Hunter now also had to suffer from that same curse, Belos nearly killed her.
