When i first saw Calli’s original video explaining the Aegis/Wildward as a whole these two villainous OCs popped into my head.

The first guy is László (Bear Aegis Weilder)

Aegis/Sentinel: The bear aegis is the aegis of “The Will to Survive” or just “Survival”. It is a roughly cut amethyst set in a ring. The name of its sentinel has long since been lost (just like how the word Bear is an epiteth which means “brown one”). The abilities it bestows are the standard like increased strength/speed/stamina however its special power is pretty simple as well as complex at the same time it is called “Deathless Hibernation” it means that if its weilder sustains a mortal injury the weilder will go into a stasis like state of regeneration where the user is unconscious. The duration of the stasis is dependent on the severity of the injury (If the heart is pierced it can last a few months, if the head is cut off it can be a century, if cut in half vertically it can be a millenium) an important thing to note is that every time the user wakes up from the stasis they become stronger not just when transformed but their bodies are sturdier and their reflexes hightened even when de-transformed (though they are way stronger when transformed) but it can only be used once every 10 years, its raw strength is comparable to the Tiger aegis though their durability is lower than the Wolf aegis. Another peculiarity is that the Bear aegis extends the life of the weilder for as long as the desire to survive burns within them.

László Backstory: He was originally a member of the hungarian tribes who crossed into europe in 895 AD. He was wounded in a battle and the enemy thinking he was dead left him but he refused to die and when crawling away from the battlefield he found the bear aegis in a cave he sought shelter in the sentinel recognizing his desire for survival and bestowing him with its power. He went on to wonder the earth and fight in many wars where he desired to figure out what it was exactly that he has become but while in a battle 500 years ago he was wounded to the degree that he awoke only in modern day. He is a social darwinist believing that the strong and more accurately the “Willing” are the ones worthy of survival and towards leading the new age of man, naturally seeing himself as the teacher who has to beat this lesson into his fellow Aegis weilders.

Character Details:

He is more than a thousand years old but appears in his 50s

He has a Thick hungarian accent

He doesn’t use weapons but instead makes gigantic claws for himself using the aegis

The activation phrase of his aegis is “Awaken” and its deactivation phrase is “Back in the cave”

He is 6’7 when de-transformed and 7’4 when transformed

His favorite food is anything that can be cooked over a campfire

His name means “Power and Glory”

He has used “Deathless Hibernation“ so many times he is now strong enough to fight beginner aegis weilders without transforming

His inspirations were Michael Myers (Rob Zombie version), Vandal Savage (DC), Sabretooth (Marvel), Senator Armstrong (Metal Gear)

The second is Hanta (Leopard Seal Aegis weilder)

Aegis/Sentinel: The Leopard Seal aegis is the aegis of “Ruthlessness”, the Aegis stone is a labradorite set in a seal teeth necklace its sentinels name is Selkie. The ability is “Leptonyx Glaciation” when the weilder desires they can infuse their weapon (Hunting daggers in Hanta’s case) with an energy that makes it so that whenever they cut/pierce something the target they cut becomes colder/freezes, the level of coldness depends on the amount of energy they infuse in their weapon if they so desire it they can infuse all of the energy at once which will cause deep frostbite (the kind that turns the skin black) in the affected area and causes it to sustain cellural damage. In addition this aegis bestows its weilders with increased lung capacity, resistence to the cold and speeds that rival the Hawk aegis’s flight but while under water.

Hanta backstory: He was born into an inuit family near the north pole. He was always destined to be a hunter in his community. And he always thought about this with great pride. When he was only a teenager one day while out hunting he was set on by a polar bear which mauled his face where parts of his lips were torn off on either side of his mouth contorting it into a horrific grin but while the polar bear was set on him he managed to drive his harpoon into the creatures heart. It was a legendary and priceless accomplishment among his community but all he could think about was the rush he felt when killing such a powerful opponent. A few months later he left his community and went out into the world where he worked many jobs almost all of which involved hunting or killing with these taking him to the furthest edges of the world. Until one day it took him to the furthest point from his original home, the south pole. He was working as a traper for an american scientific team studying animals of the south pole but the ice gave out under him and he was plunged into the water where a hungry leopard seal was waiting for him, he and the animal struggled until his will to kill won out over the creatures and he realized their fight took him to an underwater ice cave where he found the leopard seal aegis. A month later he met László for the first time with them fighting and Hanta being defeated, afterwords he decided to follow László as he promised that there will be others for his new associate to hunt.

Character Details:

His name translates to “Hunter”

His favorite food is cooked fish

He is 33 years old

The activation phrase of his aegis is “Emerge” while the deactivation phrase is “Back on ice”

He wears a coat with a high collar to conceal his face scar

His face scar is based on Leopard Seals always looking like their smiling

Him following László was based on the IRL fact that seals and bears are related

The reason his skin looks lighter when transformed is because it turns a vary light gray when the aegis is activated as opposed to his ordinary inuit complexion when de-transformed

His inspirations were Kraven the Hunter (Marvel), Black Panther (Marvel), Simo Häyhä (Record of Ragnarok design)
