Cosmic Wonders Beach Days

Part 1/15

Let The Vacation Commence! ✨

[somos-deseos]

Todos somos capaces de percibir la tristeza en los ojos del otro. No dejes que esta persona se vaya sin saber que te importa. Si ella no quiere hablar de eso en este momento, hay otras maneras de hacerle saber que estás allí. Cómprale una barra de chocolate, invítala a almorzar o cenar en un restaurante, mira películas divertidas o simplemente abrázala sin decir una palabra. No habrás dicho nada en absoluto, pero ella lo entenderá. Porque son nuestras acciones las que realmente importan.

I was on a roll with drawing Cyana from Cosmic Wonders, so I decided to go ahead and draw my two favorite characters from the series!! (Startled Grape was a later addition)

Cosmic Wonders really has a lot of great characters, but my two favorites are Bah’Rhys and Oren, with Sana as a very close second!

First off- Bah’Rhys, my boy! I don’t exactly know what draws (ha) me to him so much, but I think it’s because of the general vibes he gives off. I also like his general color scheme, and any character with nature or earth themed powers immediately get a little boost in my mind. I tried to draw him as if you just walked into the cafe, and he is asking you to wait one moment before he comes and serves you.

Oren, meanwhile, I know the exact reason for loving. When I was first getting into Cosmic Wonders, the whole cast wasn’t made yet. It was also a time where I was really struggling with my gender identity in an area where that stuff is… taboo, at best.

I was so excited when Oren came out, because I had a really cool character to relate to when it came to gender. I realized that it was okay for me to be genderfluid, because I could see it portrayed in such an awesome way.

I also really like small characters who will kick ass.

Grape is also neat :). He funny.

I’ve decided that I’m gonna do a digital of the whole page at once, instead of in separate pieces, since then I can focus more. Thank you to @itsapmseymour for creating this awesome series and sharing it with us!

Now, back to my schemes…

(Some comments from my friend:

About Cyana: Ooh! She has the same body as me!

About Bah’Rhys: Nice butt

Me: He’s wearing a suit?

Her: Still.

About Oren: Is that a dodgeball?

Me: That’s an orange, I’m not done with it yet.

Her: I think it’d be cool if she (Oren) threw dodgeballs at people when she’s mad.

Me: Yeah that makes sense for them.)

Happy b-day to @frolicinq's Oren! Here is the boy himself and the little perfect Hera.

Based on this.

[catapparently]

Far fetched but why do I feel like kid Xander would make Oren play with Barbies with him (assuming they had actual toys)

Inspirations for the Sages in A Link Between Worlds

The Sages in A Link Between Worlds are a diverse bunch of characters, unlike the Sages and Maidens from its prequel A Link to the Past, who are all depicted as the same robed men or color-swapped girls respectively. They seem to take more after the Sages from Ocarina of Time, who are from a variety of races and are more distinctive overall. While some of the Sages in A Link Between Worlds take after those from Ocarina of Time, most of them are firmly rooted in A Link to the Past.

Gulley

Gulley is often said to be inspired by the Kokiri from Ocarina of Time, but I don't think that is necessarily correct. Instead, he takes far more after Flute Boy from A Link to the Past in his design. Flute Boy is also found in the Haunted Grove in A Link to the Past, a place that Gulley also frequents. It is possible that the Kokiri as a whole were inspired by Flute Boy as well, given their similar designs, but Gulley's design remains closer to Flute Boy's than to the Kokiri.

Oren

The enemy Zora queen Oren does seem to take after Ruto from Ocarina of Time, as she has a far more humanoid design than the other enemy Zoras that appear in many of the 2D Zelda games. But she does also remain steeped in A Link to the Past, as her Zora's Domain is where Zora's Waterfall was in that game. Oren's design falls more in the middle between the Zora designs common in the 3D games and the enemy Zoras seen in the 2D games.

Rosso

Rosso is a bit of a contentious topic, though he does have obvious ties to the Gorons. He has a belt buckle bearing their symbol and also looks the part with his physique, though he has a few non-Goron traits as well such as ears and fiery red hair. In-universe, he is just a human as Gorons were revealed to sprout from the ground in Tears of the Kingdom, which would make Rosso having Goron ancestry difficult. That said, he still is a clear reference to the Gorons given he is a miner on Death Mountain and he doesn't seem to take after any character from A Link to the Past.

Osfala

Osfala doesn't take from any character in particular, instead seemingly being inspired by how sagely characters were depicted in A Link to the Past in general. This includes the robed sages of the Imprisoning War and their descendant Sahasrahla. Unsurprisingly, Osfala is also the apprentice of A Link Between Worlds's incarnation of Sahasrahla.

Irene

Irene takes after the witches Syrup and Maple from A Link to the Past (specifically its GBA release where Maple is concerned), which is also evidenced by Irene living in the same hut as them. She lives alongside her grandmother, who may actually be an elderly Maple, given her Lorule counterpart is called "Mapes".

Impa

Impa has been a staple of the series since its inception, appearing since the first Zelda game. Impa in A Link Between Worlds is an elderly lady, which is how she appears in the original NES titles, Skyward Sword, Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. Impa in A Link Between Worlds is part of this line of old Impas and doesn't pull from any one incarnation in particular.

Seres

Finally, Seres is a reference to the Maidens from A Link to the Past, who served the same role as the Sages in A Link Between World do gameplay-wise. She is a maiden as well who takes after them when it comes to appearance. Her father meanwhile is the Priest of the Sanctuary. While a similar character did exist in A Link to the Past, he did not have any confirmed family that can serve as a more concrete analogue to Seres.

Oren ( Before the orcs called him daddy)

[herondalesbooklover]

Though I don't hate Toby, I think Oren should been more of a father for Avery. Despite everything, he always took care of her, and he was always by her side. Avery herself said that Tobias asked him to run her security team, yet he was the one who took the role of protecting her. He even protected her from the (what I am guessing) only family he had when she was a no one, like...not many people would do that.

I also gotta be honest, I think Avery has seen Oren way more times than she has ever seen Toby. I know he was there when her mother died, but then he also sort of left her when she inherited the fortune. Also Oren is literally everyday looking after her.
