Was feeling nostalgic after my buddy @runes-to-my-memory mentioned an old character of hers, so I sketched how I always imagined him in his protoverse incarnation. Hal was such a slick, devious character, and even if we didn't know where our plots were actually going, Hal seemed to.

Of course I couldn't leave out his most diabolical creation, a robot created based on the information gleaned while Protoman was in bad guy hands. Designed to look much more human than the other machines, Quint was dangerous in that he not only had an affection for humans, but genuinely believed he was their guardian rather than their jailkeeper.

It is eeby time for me now. Sometimes It's fun to revisit old characters and draw them in my current style. :3 So eeby.

Suggestions for referring to the different universes in The Magnus Archives/Protocol:

- Protoverse/Protocol/The Inhabited World (TIW)/The Alchemical (Universe where Protocol takes place)

- Archiverse/Archive/The Archived World (TAW)/The Eldritch (Universe where Archives took place)

Just thoughts and suggestions for practical/spooky sounding names, alternatives are welcomed!

[tsunderful]

So Ink5oul only started getting their powers after they became internet famous? Sort of like how Mr Bonzo was a beloved(?) children's TV show mascot and how Lady Mowbray is assumedly also pretty well known among the aristocracy if she was hosting lavish parties? Almost as if in the Protoverse people get avatar powers when there are a lot of eyes on them, maybe?

Welcome protokhora!! Personally I really like her :D Sadly I did not draw Venari cuz I am very bad at drawing animals ;; Drawing protoversions of warframes makes me realize how hard it is to keep a similar shape to the og warframe when trying to 99'ify them...

[redladydeath]

I love how your version of Vox has a bug fetish for some reason!

Protoverse Vox running into Queenie in the 2020s like

"If I had a nickel for every time I was in a toxic relationship with a blank-eyed, four-armed insect sinner, I'd have 15 cents. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it's happened three times."

[cestacruz]

I do have more doodles of protoverse mordred because i love them nonbinary knights but im just sharing this quick one i did of both Mordred hanging out together

[blade-liger-4ever]

#for some reason I now imagine Alex and Father Bruce fighting crime

I need that. I need Alex Mercer fighting crime with a priest Daredevil style

Uh so I on a whim decided to look up Prototype on Amazon out of curiosity on how much an Alex figure would cost here and found this.

WHAT THE HECK??? I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS? WHY DID THEY STEAL THE LOGO AND NAME? WHY GIVE KNOCKOFF ALEX A TELEKINETIC GLOVE? WHY MAKE HIM A TEEN? AND WHY IS THIS MARKED AS A WESTERN?????

[faultyvessel]

OH THE PROTOVERSE PEEPS ARE IN FOR IT

SO EXCITING AUGHHHHHHHHH I NEED NEXT WEEK

BE SURE TO TUNE IN NEXT TIME AND THANKS FOR ATTENDING THIS EDITION OF

FAULTY ADVANCE RELEASE RAMBLES

1, 8, 19 for serwa for the character ask game ✨

What was the original thought that led to the creation of this character?

I don't really remember, her protoversion was with me for a long time. At first she was just... there. I needed numbers, I had a big group with mostly blank slates instead of full-fledged characters. Plus, I needed girls to draw, because I mostly redraw same girls over and over. Then I was inspired by Undertale Integrity soul, changing my protoversion to represent Integrity (and enjoy dancing). At some point I decided to draw Serwa with a black skin (maybe because I thought ballerina of color would be cool. Seems I wasn't the only one who headcanoned Integrity as black). And after that I got more ideas of how to proceed and actually make her a character.

8. What is the origin of their personality? And let's be honest - how much of it is projecting?

I was mainly inspired by Integrity soul, so I wanted to make Serwa honest and dignified. Since I decided to make her black, I wanted to do the opposite of stereotypes (which isn't always the best approch and can be overdone but I was like 15). Serwa is intelligent, serious, independent girl. While often straightforward, strict and firm, she conducts herself with grace and elegance (since law is her major, that is to be expected). I still don't know if I want to make her American or French, so "elegant" part also comes from French stereotypes. Serwa's biggest dream and goal is to help other minorities. Also, the discrimination she'd have witnessed since her childhood would make her a bit cynical and harsh to people who are not experiencing same hardships, but she would still be fair to them.

I think in general I hoped to write a person worthy of respect and who'd represent many virtues of humanity while also hapening to be black (then adding a bit of cynicism and "honest even if harsh" attitude because everyone needs some flaws). So I'd say I didn't project my hardships or personality traits onto her and I based my ideas on which traits I thought black girl of middle class could have. Though the virtues themselves were the ones that I valued: honesty, fairness, dignity, integrity, professionalism.

19. What is your general favourite thing about the character? What is your least favourite?

My favorite thing about Serwa is how she's one of my most morally correct characters. She's smart enough to not be manipulated by malicious schemes (which could harm others), kind enough to offer helping hand to those in need, loyal enough to never abandon her allies. She'd never lie to you, even if the truth was ugly. Nobody is perfect, but overall she is a good person, friend and partner

The least favorite thing is probably that I have to work hard to make Serwa a good representation, which means understanding how she'd live, how she'd behave determined by her environment and so on. I'd have to find a lot of materials to make an accurate backstory for her. And I want for her backstory to be believable. However, her very name is interpreted differently by many websites! How do I know which ones are correct? Besides, I don't know if English-speaking websites will have all information. I haven't really looked long enough, but I feel like it might be a challenge. And I feel additional responsibility to do right by her, because representation of POC people is important. I'm afraid to butcher her in general. To make her stereotypical or too similar to other black heroines. For example, she has water-based powers, is independent and likes dancing. That is already reminiscent of Layla/Aisha from Winx. Though I guess it's not that bad if she's her own character
