#Captain Otodus

[cheecats]

The Divers won! To celebrate I'm dropping their leader and matriarch first, Captain Otodus!

Big lady! Scary and brutal, but very clever and intuitive. All her children just call her "mama." For the rest, i'll probably drop them in clumps based on their litters!

Karocles "Otto" Otodus, former captain of the Pearltide Regiment, Water Genasi Fathomless Warlock.

He made a pact with an unknown entity to save the soldiers under his command during a frantic battle in the Abyss. Though they were victorious, he lost his arm in the process, and was discharged with honors. He has been looking for a new purpose in life ever since.

New character for a game starting tomorrow :3 design inspiration from Blackbeard (Ray Stevenson, not Taika Waititi) and great white sharks (his name comes from the genera for the megalodon) with a bit of Greek Old Man vibes.

Old art BUT I??? I don't think I ever posted this guy (if I have woopsie!) But yeah! My old "Warriors" OC: The Great White Shark (or Shark... or white boy lol) - the main guy from my pirate/shark themed group.

More info under cut:

He's the youngest of seven children to "The Megalodon" (or Captain Otodus): a matriarchal leader of a rogue group known as "The Divers."

His eldest sister is The Hammerhead Shark and they clash a LOT. But she has a stronger nerve than him and can usually kick him back down into his place lol. She's like an unofficial deputy and everyone knows it.

They live by the ocean of Shark Bay in Western Australia, although frequently travel in small groups out to sea in the makeshift boats they craft to gather materials and food.

They're a notoriously violent group, neighbouring the more private but expansive desert group inland known as the "Sand Runners." They clash often when the Sand Runners need supplies from the sea, or The Divers travel inland to escape flooding and storms. They sometimes meet to trade, but mostly try to avoid each other.

The Divers also know how to use celestial navigation, read the time, filter water, fish, swim and make tools! Also they tend to spit a LOT due to the salt water that builds up in their fur. Also goes without saying, but they're very devoted to the sharks of Shark Bay, and can even tell a lot of them apart from their appearances/personalities.

I have lots more to say but it'll never shut up otherwise so lol

Captain Otodus' first litter!

They're four years older than the following litter and acted as secondary caregivers for their other siblings

Hammerhead is very obviously Otodus' favourite kit and has a more open dynamic with her. Mako is probably the most flippant and is kicked quite low into the pecking order because of it.
