As I'm in the development stages of my SPM AU comic, I've been working on character designs.

For this page we've got most of Count Bleck's crew. This is where I first drew up the current designs I use for them. Here you can see my clear bias for Dimentio lmao. I drew him far more than the others. I also fiddled with his design a lot. When it comes to my favorite characters, I have trouble designing them cause I want to do them justice. Mimi is here a lot cause I just genuinely enjoy drawing her.  Count Bleck has an interesting facet to his design, where when he's Count Bleck, and has the hat on, you can't see his hair or ears. He also has a more jagged mouth, which gives him more of a creepy look.  And if you get the pose reference for the O'Chunks doodle on the bottom, then you're an MVP. Have fun with my little ship dump on the top of the canvas lol

Shadoo and King Croacus are also featured here. I honestly love them, and think they don't get enough love from the fandom. I'm really happy with both of their designs as well. Shadoo is made of white line art due to her being a shadow.  I could go on about the little details in Croacus' design that were taken from his canon model, but I won't lmao

We also have some designs for Luvbi. I wanted to lean into how Nimbi are like angels, so her arms are like an extra set of wings to reference the biblically accurate angels.  In the bottom left corner we have some Shaydes, the Spirits of the Underwhere. I wanted them to vary a bit more than just the two we see in game. Their variations also make up some of the different races we see throughout the SPM universe. We'll see more Shayde variations in the actual comic when I make it. 

Certain spots are also censored due to spolier reasons.

College is so stressful but anyway what if Desmond wears eyeliner or kohl and wear feminine and masculine clothes depending his mood because he seems androgynous to me and when he timetravels and just go "fuck gender roles" and kills templars while he grows his hair and wears jewellery and lace

I hope you get some time to relax soon! And the awesome thing about Desmond is that he changes face in every game that we can call him androgynous if we feel like it. Dude doesn’t really have a canon face anyway. And even if he doesn’t, this involves time traveling so we can just chalk the sudden androgynous look to some kind of Isu BS XD

Desmond will definitely be the bisexual awakening of a lot of people with his time hopping. Altaïr alone would be more confused than he was when he found out Maria was pretending to be Robert. If anything could be considered sorcery, it would be Desmond’s ability to confuse the hell out of people. They meet him wearing masculine clothes and think “Oh, he’s a dude” and then their next meeting with him, he’d be wearing feminine clothes and be like “??????” and BSOD.

Altaïr would try to push any confusion he might have and focus on gaining the information he needs from Desmond (who may or may not have killed someone to get the information, the Brotherhood can’t be sure) but, goddamn it, that’s hard to do when he’s just standing nearby, watching Desmond put on kohl on his eyes and painting his lips red just because he was ‘feeling pretty’ today, whatever the hell that means and he’s just draped in silk bedsheets because he hasn’t thought of what clothes he should wear today and Altaïr is pretty sure Desmond is doing this on purpose because there’s no fucking way that bedsheet coincidentally just slipped enough that Altaïr could see his collarbone. Then Desmond tells him to check his chest and pick a dress for him and holy shit, there are undergarments there that Altaïr had never seen before and his brain just gives up on him that way and all blood flowed downward after that.

Ezio would know Desmond as Leonardo’s favorite muse and he’d flirt with him, thinking he’s a woman at first. Ezio and Desmond would definitely have some fun and Ezio’s just going to be ‘oh, cool’ with anything Desmond does. Seeing Desmond assassinate someone will always be hot regardless of what clothes he decided to wear during that time. (The Borgias will definitely have a boner for him and it’s half hot-person-yummy and half he-can’t-be-more-beautiful/handsome-than-us, especially from Lucrezia). Ezio and Desmond definitely posed for one of Leonardo’s works (that doesn’t exist in the OG timeline) and it’s the steamiest painting Leonardo had ever done.

Haytham’s prudeness will definitely make him annoyed, both at Desmond himself and at his own attraction to seeing Desmond wearing those infuriating scandalous clothes. Ratonhnhaké:ton, on the other hand, would just think “white people weirdness” when he first sees Desmond. When he learns that other white people think Desmond is weird, at that point, Ratonhnhaké:ton wouldn’t even care anymore as he liked Desmond as a person and he likes seeing Desmond smiles. Desmond is also Ratonhnhaké:ton’s plus one for Myriam and Norris even though Ratonhnhaké:ton told him that he doesn’t understand what a ‘plus one’ even means. Ratonhnhaké:ton wouldn’t say it outloud but he thought Desmond outshone Myriam on her own wedding day.

Shay’s definitely going to be tongue-tied whenever he sees Desmond. Also, Desmond got a few fashion tips from Hope and he looks so good in female Assassin robes that he definitely outshines Hope. Liam likes to tease him about it but even he’s not immune to Desmond’s charm, especially when Desmond stares at him. Even when Shay defected, he could never raise his hand against Desmond and… maybe a part of him enjoyed being stepped on by Desmond’s heels, he’s trying not to think too deeply about it considering he can already see Haytham’s disapproving face.

Arno… Arno would find him strange, sure, and he’s definitely going to ignore his attraction to him because he’s in love with Élise, damn it. But it is becoming too hard to ignore it when Élise always finds ways to leave him behind while he will always see Desmond in the cafe, smiling at him as he welcomed him back. He doesn’t even know where he stands with Élise anymore and Desmond… Desmond confuses him so much but, at the same time, Desmond is the only person who makes so much sense right now that… fuck, Arno’s going to get drunk and just let his drunk self do whatever. He’ll deal with the consequences later.

It’s Jacob who sees Desmond first. Flirts with him ‘cause he thought he was a woman. Evie sees him next while he’s wearing masculine clothes… but Evie can’t be sure. There’s something about the way he moved and the way he looked that just makes Evie unable to fully conclude that she is seeing a man. Jacob and Evie never see him at the same time. Every time they see him, they see him as a woman for Jacob and a man for Evie. Then they finally see him together, wearing formless clothes that could worn by anyone and he’s talking to Ned and they’re both “ooooohhhhh” but they don’t really get it, they just think they do.

Tried my hand at @shaydh's Niko for their "draw this in your style" challenge! :D I am a huge fan of their work and was excited that they put the challenge out there! I hope I did him justice!

Merlette is getting some touch ups, nothing major has changed besides a different hair style and color changes on her clothes. Shayde is still the same, design-wise.

im literally a sucker for human (loser) getting possessed by something (godly satanic or even angelic) but the human just completely dismisses the something as a normal occurrence

Souls from the postgame have come down to take part in the Spikers League! Nimbis are quick and can easily weave between attacks, Shaydes can dip into the shadows to become traps that slow opponents down, and Skellobits have a long spear that can stab and freeze enemies!

Snippets how would Shay flirt Desmond? he might do it to Liam and Desmond might make it a sexual innuendo and just Liam fuming at Shay. Desmond probably also knows how to tie a cherry stem with his tongue

The Desmond reborn as Liam's Brother and Shay's Other Childhood Friend idea.

I was talking to a friend of mine about the whole cherry stem thing a week or so ago because she received a comment asking what cherries have to do with kissing. Anyway, for those who are unfamiliar with it: being able to tie a cherry stem with only your tongue is supposed to mean that you’re a good kisser.

As for the origin of that… uuhh… trope, I guess? The most solid ‘history’ I could find is that this originated because cherries were apparently abundant in bars and other similar places so this was a common pickup line or something.

And because of that, I just have to share this dumb idea I have of Desmond as a bartender getting hit on:

Desmond: Why would that mean you’re a good kisser?

Customer: Because only a good kisser can tie a cherry like this. See?

Desmond: Or… (shows his phone) you googled how to do it. See? There’s even a wikihow.

Customer: That’s not… I… (sigh and leaves)

Co-worker: … Soooo… how many times have you heard that?

Desmond: Five.

Co-worker: Well, that’s not too-

Desmond: Since I started my shift.

Co-worker: Oh, damn.

Anyway, have some awkward Shay flirting.

Liam: … Why are you covered in blood?

Shay: I don’t want to talk about it.

Liam: Is any of that blood yours? Do you need help?

Shay: No. It’s… it’s deer blood.

Liam: … Why would you be covered in deer blood?

Shay: I really don’t want to talk about it.

Hope: I do.

Shay and Liam: (turns to frown at Hope)

Hope: Our dear poor Shay asked your brother if he wanted to take a walk in the forest.

Liam: Oh no.

Hope: Of course, he said yes.

Liam: Desmond thought you wanted to go hunting.

Shay: …

Liam: But that doesn’t explain the deer blood. Did you… did you kill a deer with your bare hands?

Shay: … Desmond told me to use my hidden blade.

Liam: Oh dear God.

Hope: He did it and he didn’t get a speck of blood on him, didn’t he?

Shay: …

Hope: And you thought you can do it too. That it will be easy and he’ll tell you that it was a magni-

Shay: You can stop recounting my foolishness now, Hope.

Liam: And where’s the deer now?

Shay: It… got mauled by a bear.

Liam: … The bear smelled the blood?

Shay: Probably.

Liam: So… you bathed in deer’s blood and don’t even have anything to show for your misfortune.

Shay: … We’re having bear meat tonight.

Liam: You killed a bear? With a hidden blade?

Shay: …

Liam: …

Shay: …

Liam: My brother killed a bear with a hidden blade, didn’t he?

Shay: (silently nod)

Liam: (resigned sigh)

Hope: (amused chuckle)

theres already shayde | coldhen/braydyn fics whoever wrote these bless u and how do u write so quick

[lonelimbless]

I don't really have much patience for this so sharing these through screenshots. This is Shayde (or by her real name: Merlette); a ghostly nightmarish thingamajig that might as well give some lore importance within Rayman: CoD.

Before her demise, she was the Meadow's "heroine" long before Ashlen was created. She is also her long lost sister as she was also created by Willow. Both Willow and the Meadow once being different before Andre's uprising. Speaking of which, Andre was considered to be her trusted friend once upon a time because she took him under her care once transformed, as she always have the soft spot for small creatures, no matter any shape or form. This would prove to be fatal in her part as Andre manipulated her into achieving him power through her powers. Once she tried to undo her mistake, Andre simply disposed of her once and for all, leaving her fate to be in ruin.

However, the limbless isn't completely gone.. but never once as she used to be.

"Beast" Design under cut!! Small warning for (potential) brightness and body horror. I promise it's nothing too bad though.

She is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS in this form, even if it is rare.

But in case you can't read the text: "Beast" Shayde is approximately over 7' with her body being more molten and distorted, as cracks become more prominent and brighter. She is able to generate large wings and loud shrieks that can disorientate others within the area.
