So a tidbit about vampires in Kovaud. The most powerful and influential of them have flying castles. These castles are powered by blood magic and piloted using arcane harmonics. In order for a vampire to steer their castle they must vibrate the enchantments keeping it aloft in a certain manner. They commonly do so by blasting organ music which can be heard long before the castle is seen as it approaches.
So in essence some vampires have flying castles which move by playing an instrument.
New DND BBEG just dropped and of course it's my character's dad.
Everything was going so well for my boy, he had reinvented himself and had forgotten about his past. Then it turned out the evil vampire he had been chasing with his friends was only one member of a council of villains, one of which is this fella, Raizer Kaitin, CEO of Elf Hating.
And we've discovered as well that he's responsible for some trauma in everyone's backstory and none of us had any clue about the connection. Our DM is wonderful but he's well aware on how to give us all a heart attack.
Took my shot at designing a fangoji and ended up with this funky lil guy.
My head is spinning with lore for him but the core is essentially he was a smaller Mosasaurus kaiju but after being at the centre of some well placed nuclear explosions he got even bigger and nastier.
He's spent his time waiting for Ghidorah to come back so he can kick his ass again but these humans keep bothering him.
One of my favourite parts about writing has been the moments when the character has just taken over and discovered themselves without any input from me.
I was so certain I knew how Nightingale's character was going to act but as this scene has gone on I guess she's just decided to become a wrestling face and who am I to say no?
Thinking of rereading some of my old favourite arcs from One Piece. Whole Cake still has a special place in my heart and god do I miss Katakuri I could ramble forever about why he's the perfect antagonist.
