MCD Rewrite - Gene

BRUUUHHHHHHH his palette FOUGHT me dude. I wanted it to include red with some blue undertones to reflect his brother, while at the same time he needed to be wearing mostly black and stuff since he’s more cloak and dagger + his magick type. So hopefullyyyy it comes across

Text on the image is under the cut!

+ Older brother of Dante, after their mother left them, he took care of him

+ He was very protective and supportive of Dante (aka can, has, and will beat tf out of transphobes)

+ Was born with magicks, specifically the ability to overshadow (basically possession + meat puppets) and would use this to steal/ get opportunities for him and his brother, much to Dante’s chagrin

+ Conflicted, one day Dante vents to an adult he thought he could trust about the moral delima but uh oh! The bitch was lying and cannot be trusted. He rallies the town and they go on a witch hunt, burning Gene at the stake (part of this can be seen on Dante’s sheet)

+ Thanks to working with the guards, he comes back as a shadow knight. This new magicks melded well with his innate abilities, allowing him to not only quickly climb the ranks, but to also become shadow itself.

+ I like to think that his power motifs differ from the straight up flame abilities most of the knights wield, because (A) not only does it blend well with his powers, but his personality too and (B) the dood is a bit scared of fire

+ Most of his body is made up of burn scar tissue, and thanks to revival magicks he’s able to still move around p easily and stuff, but he still has to wear compression clothes, treat the burn sights with care, and has horrible tremors. Not to mention his fine motor skills are basically gone

+ He’s got a quiet but authoritative Deep raspy voice thanks to being a burnt chicken nugget

Extra Notes

+ He becomes desaturated when uses smoke abilities (specifically when he turns into smoke

+ Compression wraps and shirt to help w burn scars pain and he has more underneath his baggy pants and such

+ There is a scar chart revealing burn scars covering most of his body, all the way up to his neck

+ He/Him

+ Age: 21

+ Height: 6’ 1”

Dante or Gene? :]

yay i never posted a full color for them so i colored these random sketches lol. i always feel kind of iffy specifically about my young Dante because he is... very plain... like he's a fluffy haired generic anime boy....... on the other hand i think it's fitting for him since Dante to me is a guy who feels like a side character in his own life

INTERESTING THING ABOUT MY GENE AND DANTE. i try to hide their letters in their little hair strands :)

If Minecraft Diaries had Twitter

Part 7

Part 1 Part 6 Part 8

[hush-pup-py]

had a dream last night where Aphmau announced there would be 20 seasons of Minecraft Diaries

[gonedreaminggg]

I wanna know what the calling feels like.

I can't remember if it was ever described in canon minecraft diaries but holy shit it is talked about so much, especially regarding Laurance.

I feel like there's definitely some sort of pain involved, whether it be emotional or physical. There's some need to kill the one you protect with your life, so pain is necessary, especially in Laurance's case.

He loves Aphmau so much, yet is forced to leave because HE. HAS. TO. KILL. HER.

I feel like it burns. I think Shadow Knights and fire are so related. Sasha was literally reborn from lava. I know that they are for the most part "undead," but look at Laurance. He never died. He was transformed in a different way. And Alexis (for the time that she was an SK).

I want to be able to sympathize with Laurance, and Sasha, and other Shadow Knights who haven't answered the calling. I want to know why Vincent went through with it.

I want to know more about Zenix, one of the youngest SK's we've met, and the kind of pressure it puts on a teen. The kind of headspace you have to be in to rationalize murder, especially when you're that young and impulsive.

I could literally talk about Shadow Knights for hours, they are such an intriguing part of Minecraft Diaries.

Sneaky peaky >:3c

[the-martyrfication-of-the-matron]

High school was a nightmare because Gene tried so hard to act cool and tough and like he didn’t care about Dante except then the second Dante like took a tumble during soccer he was losing his mind

Someone would shoulder Dante in the hallways and then they’d get their wrist dislocated by Gene pushing them down the stairs.
