Family napping time !!!

I know they are all creatures from a world of dreams but they also deserve to rest! Plus their "dreams" are just recaps of their past memories; they just relive their little memories (or just "dream" wobbly colors or pitch black)

🪐 SAIPH 🪐

(they/xe/it)

Many moons ago, before more canon demon races were revealed, I had introduced my psychosis demon OC, Saiph. Since that time, a lot has changed with how I wanted their character to look, act, behave, etc...

💫 REINTRODUCTION TIME 💫

Facts about Saiph:

• Saiph, meaning 'sword', is a star located in the constellation of Orion

• Saiph is also selectively mute! They’ll communicate telepathically only if truly necessary

• Their original dorky Serenity Daemon personality, pre-sovereign tampering (read below), shows itself much more once they satiate their hunger/post-feeding

• Xe have a special interest in planets and celestial bodies so much so that xer “nest” is in an abandoned observatory, cloaked behind a ward so that it isn’t at risk of humans rediscovering it

• Saiph is one of the more gentle of the Psychosis Daemons, however still incredibly dangerous, especially when hungry bro they’ll fucking kill you

• Why, yes! After they feed, they do feel guilty for being a literal murderer once it’s said and done! Only for The Hunger to take hold again and then they don’t care who they gotta kill, so long as they get to eat! It’s tragic!

• The kind of mf that curiously cocks it’s head when listing to you speak

• NO SHOES !! FEELS YUCK !!

• They’ll make sure that the last thing you see before you die are the stars sparkling above, the ones of which they believe all living things have come from. It’s their inner conscious’s twisted version of showing it’s prey mercy during their final moments

Here's how the inner-workings of how my Psychosis Daemons work:

• Psychosis demons, also referred to as Nightcrawlers, feed from the inherent feelings of delirium, psychosis (obvi), and hysteria

• This is a hostile sub-class of daemon, though not necessarily by choice

• The Sovereigns toyed and experimented with Serenity Daemons in a similar vein to how they once did with Concubi, corrupting and warping the peace-seekers into its antithesis— into something so violently obsessed and aggressive in finding their picture of perfect and 'divine serenity' that they spiraled and drove themselves into an enraged madness

• Thus classifies them as a sub-class to Serenity Daemons, so they get to keep the (a) in their Daemon title. Nightcrawlers did not coalesce— they were forged, making them only a handful in numbers and very old beings

• They were initially experimented on with the intent of being forged into unrelenting weapons for the Sovereigns to use during the Cacophony

• Psychosis Daemons often appear to look starved and malnourished, their physical bodies reflecting how that their dietary demands are hardly ever satiated

• The shape of their horns represent sharks teeth, because the teeth of a shark are angled inwards in such a way that it's nearly impossible for prey to pull free from its jaws once bitten. Once these Daemons have its grip on you, you’re done for.

• There are so very few existing Nightcrawlers that they used to be practically considered a myth until modern Department technology was able to better track and contain them for research purposes. D.U.M.P. has aptly given this subclass its name, as the majority of documented Nightcrawler feeding patterns display nocturnal behavior

• Saiph's kind is extremely patient and meticulous when picking their meals, so rather than feeding from a gathering of people in a single passing go, this race modifies one single human's memory by implementing overwhelming senses of deja-vu and confusion into their minds. This piques their curiosity, which then lures the human into the Daemon’s “nest” while kept in a trance-like delusion

• They literally stalk their prey before Getting You

• Nightcrawlers keep their prey around for the rest of the duration of the human's life as a thrall of sorts, because the further into delirium the person strays, the stronger the emotions these demons can feed from

• The human's worsening psychosis provides such a substantial amount of emotions that only one person is needed to feed, a 'mate-for-life' type of relationship. However, between their aggressive feeding habits, tendency to push the human mind too far, as well as the intensity and obsessive frequency at which they feed, the person's life is often cut extremely short. Then the cycle begins again.

My oc Saiph! I wanted to get this out as this year's Valentine's day drawing but I was honestly slacking (I think I just intimidated myself with the drawing honestly)

[that-oracle]

bad day to be wearing all black

was messing with a brush I have but don't really use :3

Fleshing out the students. I have NO idea what I want for Ophelia's (unicorns) outfit so I just slapped a random dress on for colour palette/vibe reference and I'll figure it out later.

We've got Skye the wolf, Esther the moose, Celine the bunny and Ophelia the unicorn. I wanted to have some fleshed out designs for story purposes and et voila.

Quick context: Saiph feeling stressed, unappreaciated and tired by her own kind and friend, she accepts to be captured by Reala, whom first intent was to use her energy to fuel their abilities, but Saiph already frustrated, just yelled out "if you want to trap me, then make it worth it!". I was very inspired by the old 90s or 2000s comic humor and wanted to do a warm up after a week without properly drawing anything related to NiGHTS.

28 & 29 & 55 @ Saiph

28. O que está te irritando agora?

Por que vocês me julgam achando que eu estou irritada? Francamente. Eu não estou irritada o tempo todo. Nesse momento estou irritada, mas é porque eu estou com fome. E sentir fome me deixa de mal humor. Eu preciso comer mais, mas aparentemente meus colegas acham que uma refeição aceitável não precisa necessariamente ter carne. O que é um absurdo. Comi uma refeição sem carne e ainda continuo sentindo fome. O que só prova que toda essa ideia de comida vegana é uma piada.

29. Qual é a sua cor favorita?

A maioria das pessoas acredita que minha cor favorita seja branco. Por que chegam a esse veredicto errôneo? Simplesmente pelo fato de minha armadura de batalha ser dessa cor. Mas não é minha cor favorita. A minha cor favorita é vermelho.

55. Você já teve um mentor? Como era sua relação com ele(a)?

Meu mentor foi o meu pai. Nossa relação era boa ao meu ver. Ele era um mestre exigente, rígido e forte. Me ensinou tudo que sei sobre o que é ser uma guerreira de verdade. Foi o responsável por me treinar para a batalha e para não aceitar a derrota. Ele foi um bom mentor. Como pai? Não muito. Mas não posso julgá-lo, porque provavelmente é difícil criar um filho sozinho. E creio que ele fez o que achava ser certo depois que minha mãe foi morta.
