Golem is so underrated. Like he's so fun to draw wym he's the least favorite😭
No but in all honesty I had three crash outs drawing him. The references I used worked really well to help me learn his shading and how his layers work. Ofc ima try to make a design of golem that's less... how do I put this... difficult. But still, he's so cool man.
Their real name is Eddie, and they go by He/Him or They/Them. This is like my first good OC ngl, so don't judge! If you've seen this before, it's cause im reposting it.
More info under the cut!
He was born in Brooklyn, New York, on September 19th, 1996. Their mother died during birth, and his father abandoned him. they grew up going through the foster care system and had many families where abusive (beating him, neglecting him, and SA him) and had racial bias against him. He turned to violence for comfort. Believing if he hurt other people like just how like he was hurt, the pit in his stomach would go away the more he hurt. And it did, as long as he never stopped. He olny found his forever home once he turned 17 when he was taken by a woman named Jada, Jay for short. He never permanently lived there, but he went to her when he needed advice or comfort by his newfound mother. This didn't stop him from committing to his life of crime and murder. He got away with it for years until he was caught in the middle of brutally killing someone in a bar fight by an SDN hero. He was going in 25 to life, but he was offered a deal; join the Z team and evade prison. Now he was stubborn but not and idiot. He immediately took up this deal, even if it meant him old villain days were over.
He has synergy with Golem, giving them more of a chance to pass his mission. He also has an extra power, if matched up with some and the combat anf vigor level is 5 and under naturally, he can grow spikes outta his teammates without it hurting them, bringing combat to 7 and vigor to 6.
As i said, pronouns are He/him/They/Them, and he's Bi sexual but has some internal homophobia.
Do i ship him with anyone? Yes, Golem is his boyfriend, but it takes some therapy sessions and wakes up calls to realize that.
