Red Strings

"The Bird of Hermes is my name, Eating my wings to make me tame."

Raised under harsh expectations, a dangerously competitive sibling and an expansive library, Vesperling Williams is a bit of a prodigy, a fast learner and an even faster problem solver (of most things). His mother was a powerful Necromancer, and his father was a man of many magics, considered to be one of the most powerful magic users in the world. This eventually led to Vesper, who inherited both of their combined magics when he was born, enough that it caused his mother’s death upon birth. As powerful as that makes him, he cannot use all of his magic freely as his father can, resulting in magical recoil. Vesper, with all the magic in him, experiences magical recoil often; there are few spells he can complete without damaging himself purely because he cannot always control the amount of magic he puts forth. This doesn’t happen with alchemy and summoning/necromancy, as one is given to him naturally as an ability through his mother and the other involves the mixing of magical properties, not creating elements/things from nothing. Thankfully the amount of recoil he receives lessens after Volt is summoned because the Demon can balance it out, though there is still risk of injury with any ability Volt isn’t naturally gifted with. When he was eighteen, he summoned the Wrath Demon known as Volt (Voluntas), and had a very simple contract that puzzled the irritable Infernal: “I wish for a best friend.” Volt agreed, seeing that such a contract would be easy, and that he would gain a powerful soul in return, though warned the human exactly what would happen to him. Vesper wholeheartedly accepted. Most people at the time found it unnerving for the young man to be followed by ominous creatures like hellhounds or Infernal Dragons, but Vesper always assured them he was in no trouble! After all, Volt was his best friend! Now that he’s a few years older, Vesper currently is a Senior in Westborough College of Magi (WCOM), only a few months away from graduating. His true major follows his natural abilities, Summoning/Necromancy, and has a sub in Alchemy. (Necromancy is a subcategory of Summoning, as it is summoning a specific thing– souls– hense why Vesper can perform Summoning with relative ease.) In his downtime, Vesper loves cooking and baking. If you ask him why, he’ll say it’s similar to Alchemy, and easy to follow. In his late teen years, he started subbing magical ingredients to his food instead of the regular option, to see what would happen, of if he could make something completely new! (Think like food buffs in video games lol.) He’s a pretty cheerful guy with a steep level of patience, and rarely loses it. But like any person, he has his bad moments, and has to fight self deprecation built on a family competing for their father’s attention. It’s a rough time, but he’s got Voluntas to help him keep it together.

Here he is… Death.

Death is, as you can tell, the ‘Earth Prime’ version of MZ. As Kara pointed out with Dirge, we like to interconnect out universes, and he became the ‘plot reason’ her Rock and my MZ are fated to be together. TLDR; he is the God of Death, paired with the God of Life to keep the balance of souls in check. His abilities aren’t restricted to a single quadrant of the multiverse, but the multiverse as a whole, though there are some places that are harder to access more than just observatory than others. 

Most things cannot see him, much like other other-folk, but sometimes he can be glimpsed in crowds or distant places, watching and observing. His cloak is a form of his wings, of which there are eight pairs, and only are visible in times of great calamity and danger. Normally it moves and shifts as it is made of shadows, just like he sometimes is. He shifts in shadows and moves with them, though has no adverse reactions to being in the sunlight either.

Kara wrote a little about how he and Dirge first met, but the summary is that Fate (the Goddess of Fate, I’ll make her a shiny ref at some point) told him to don his Avatar’s skin and interact with one of the souls he was meant to reap– that soul was Dirge. Fate had it so that Dirge was Death’s first Guardian, who functions as a reaper to ferry souls from place to place, and be another set of eyes.

Death rarely speaks, and responds to things in a neutral manner. After all, souls are hardly worth talking to, all of them bargain to have a life that is already gone.

Another fan art print hot off the press for the convention year! It’s taken me literal years of doing convention tables and selling prints to finally get around to some Pokemon merch, but I’m glad I waited until now <3 I’m super happy with how these two came out, and I’m thinking of drawing a few more legendary Pokemon as a result!

You can check out our con merch via @auxwave-creations if you’re interested, links in the pinned post there!

MZ and Rock! This was a Valentines gift for my wife, as we got married this year! I’m aware I’m like, months late in posting this, but here it is! I really wanted to draw them, as they were the reason we met today, and who we are as people, and who we are together. I don’t normally post WIPs, but this was really important, so I felt the need to share anyways.

Artfight revenge for my beloved @hellscythearts 💘🔪

[This Attack]

Siblings!

An ArtFight mass attack, featuring a whole bunch of Vessels. Characters in order from top to bottom:

Flick ( @hellscythearts​ ), Mire (Confuzedginger), Moss (mailmanrhy), Little Shadow (Upper right, Sarracenia), Prune ( @shibee-inu​ ), Leaf Knight (GayPlant24), Oswin (VelviaLines), Immortal Vessel (Squidy363), Mossy ( @lj-neko ), Mud ( @lizradical ), Beetle (Jellerz), and Az ( @wrenchdogs )

The short story is that one of the groups I was in decided to have a fantasy AU, and THUS-- I essentially plugged AUs I had already conceptualized with the wife into there.

More AU stuff!
