by revamp, I mean: Overhauling majority of my plot and scaling the story down as well as completely scrapping like two characters and making better ones. Edgar stays though because I can’t get rid of his stupid pepper face.

I saw Beetlejuice recently and I feel inspired to potentially revamp this bad boy.

May the power of creative undead motifs and snakes fuel my power.

Shoutout to Edgar’s pet sea lions from hell. Their names are Two-Scoops and Sugarcane (both of them are girls).

He stole them but they didn’t really mind, they’re both very endearing to him.

Little Sketch Comic I couldn’t fit dialogue into

So we’re adding it in post!

Edgar: Don’t sweat it, kid. I know this next guy like the back of my tail. And the front, of course.

GAC: So.. what do you think of him?

Edgar: Well, what DON’T I think of him? He’s a decrepit skeleton that skins and crafts the flesh of the innocent, taking the forms of people dead and living to sneak his way into their homes and then takes their skin next! ..I’m not saying that just because he’s my ex, that’s literally what he does.

Edgar: You can figure him out like.. super easy cause his right eye doesn’t move, his right arm is busted, and his right hand is disfigured. So as long as you stick by me, you’ll be fiiinnnee.

Sketch in full.

Recent Sketches

You may have seen these images before if you wander my Discord every now and then. I’ll give some context for them.

Top Left: Depicts Edgar facial expressions, tightening his tie. Edgar standing over Nameless Kid with a mug that is labeled “#1 Daddy” as a parody of the “#1 Dad” mugs. Towards the end of the story, I imagine they have a kind of found family sort of thing.

Top Right: First rendition of GAC, they have 2 piercings, a glass eye, and a “The Boys From Canada” hoodie (I personally don’t like hoodies but I’d imagine someone their age would wear one) The Boys From Canada is a reference to my previous work, The Moirai Collections.

Bottom Left: First rendition of Oswine, Edgar’s older brother. His design is a redo of a previous sona character. Some stuff about him is that he is big into business and writing. His main activity of the day is just sitting at a typewriter and doing excessive paperwork day to day, he is not easily amused but he isn’t cold either.

Bottom Right: My most complete-ish drawing of Edgar, can be seen in the current pfp and pinned post. It was initially drawn in Cherry Red with no cain. Edgar is one of my older characters, he is actually older than my main mascot, Beep. He used to be a Veldigun (a species created by Pastra Spec, check them out, they’re a delight) and was pretty old in terms of community creations but I’ve since scrapped his status as a Veldigun and moved him into a general Devil where he is less beast-like and more of a charismatic humanoid.

What Is WPTFIF?

Hey @count-cr4ckula here. You can call me Boopus/Beep/The WPTFIF Guy/Count Crackula/Ghouly Rooly/Jules, whatever as long as I’m cool with it. This pinned post will be a big base resource on my WIP story We Put The Fun In Funeral (Acronym: WPTFIF). If you have any more specific questions about WPTFIF, feel free to comment below or ask me about it on Discord if you find me.

What Is WPTFIF?

WPTFIF was initially a fighting game concept I had in my head about a goth kid and a demon that have a big trip around the country to recapture ghosts back inside an enchanted book. The concept is relatively the same except with a few changes and that I don’t have a particular medium in mind to convey the story at the moment other than hand drawn work (Maybe animation if I gather the motivation). The current story of WPTFIF follows a Nameless punk (They/Them) who grew up without parents that steals an accursed book called Codex Kakos, containing 22 powerful monsters from a traveling performer demon named Edgar (He/Him). Edgar leaves his troupe and his brother Oswine to retrieve Codex Kakos before anything goes wrong… it does go very wrong as the 22 monsters are released across the country of Canada, The Nameless Kid and Edgar have about a month to recapture the 22 monsters into the book or else a terrible cataclysm will occur in the next full moon. The story is subject to have plenty of changes and new additions I will add to his blog as we move along.

What Will This Blog Serve?

This blog will host discussion, art, concept work, story elements, and plenty of development shenanigans for WPTFIF. Once again the determined medium for the story isn’t clear yet, is it a comic? Cartoon? Game? I don’t know, I just wanna iron out the fun bits (the story and stuff) before I do anything big with it.

Any Sensitive Content?

I think even when my work isn’t taking a serious direction, I would probably add sensitivity warning anyway because my work is big on gross visuals or grim subject matter every now and then because I’m a massive horror fan. This series will likely contain stuff like bright colors and gooey visuals, creepy clowns, death, spiders, and other ghoulish stuff. More sensitive stuff included may be included. I will list them as they appear in my creative process in a sort of does the dog die website kinda manner in one big post.

Characters?

There’s going to be a lot of characters in this project. The two main characters are Acronym Kid/Nameless Kid/Punk/Gender Ambiguous Child/The One Not To Be Named and Edgar. There will be a few reoccurring side characters like Edgar’s brother Oswine, a few human characters, and even some of the more notable or the 22 monsters.

Another note to add to this section is that just like with my other work, majority of the characters are LGBTQ+. I am queer myself and I like writing other queer characters so if you dig that and you like the characters for it, I’m happy for you. If you’re here to be a dick about it, this blog isn’t for you.

How Can I Acceptably Interact With this Work?

There are a few ways you can contribute to this project if you’re interested in it. Asks are always fun, you can ask me questions about it on the Ask Tab or ask characters questions and I can give you little drawn responses if I have the time. I am super flattered whenever I see fan art or fan works of any kind and I’ll surely reblog it here if I can. My only major limit to fan content is that I will not reblog or engage in any NSFW/Inappropriate/Fetish stuff. I’m a minor that’s actually fucking weird if you think content of my characters is okay like that. I’m fine with somewhat suggestive work or shipping content if that’s your cup of tea.

Thank You For Reading This Post!

Future updates with new characters, illustrations, and story stuff are to come in the near future! Stay Tuned.
