Martial: I may not remember you, but I know who I am.

Marked Martial: You forget Martial, history has a fucking tendency to repeat itself.

Del Pilar - born on 1899 during the Philipline American War

Guerilyera - born 1941 during the Philippine Japanese War

Del Pilar tried so much to fight during WWII but he was exiled and have to leave his baby sister to America. When Pearl Harbor was hit, the Pearl of Orient was left at the hands of Imperial Japan. Philia declared that she will fight and donned her colors as "Guerilyera", Kumander Perlas Silang.

Guerilyera is always the resistance whenever the Philippine is left alone or betrayed. The lingering will of Philia when she is captured or comatosed. That's why she was present during Marked Martial's rule.

*Marked Martial is the era of Marcos' Dictatorship. Both inspired from Marcos and the markings he got from being blinded and used by the dictatorial rule which started when the 1973 Constitution was ratified through a questionable plebiscite.

I am so invested with the countryhumans. So cute with the hairs! So I went and draw a version for Philippine Revolutionary Flags. Here's the initial design.

Tawalisi, is the pre-colonial Philippines. His design is still in the works.

Martial Law, appears whenever he senses Philippines needed to be protected. However, there was a phase when he fell in love with "Maharlika", a utopia version of Philippines. In his fervent passion to serve and make Philippines the same as "Maharlika", he had imposed his rule over her and made a lot of atrocities. And now Philippines has a lingering fear and sometimes hatred to Martial Law. It is a twisted and destructive love, and yet Philippines knows that she'll be forced to use him when the time comes. Theirs is a master-servant relationship, where the master is forever wary of the servant, and the servant has always been of power over her.

The "twins of Katipunan". Magdiwang and Magdalo are brothers of blood and at-arms. During the Spanish Philippine Revolutionary War, their father, Katipunan, went missing. They have searched for him to no avail. Left with no guidance from their father, and with the waging war, and conflicting ideals (one is of Diplomat, the other is of War), they went to a self-destructive path.

Del Pilar was born during the Philippine-American War. He was called "Republica ng Biak na Bato" by Magdalo, and "Haring Bayang Katagalugan" by Magdiwang. But in the end, he refused both names. He picked up the pieces left by Katipunan, and the conflicts of his older brothers, but he never stopped fighting. And finally, made concessions and renounced his place for the sake of the young Philippines. She was not what they had aspired to be at the time, but she was what they needed to survive. And when he knew, she can finally stand on her ground, he took the name of a general, who knows love, and hope, and who was too young to be called by fate to become a hero, and even donned his colors.
