You know I almost cried during this ones ugly phase but it got done. The shading really helped bring this together.
Anyway, this is my oc Mara. She lives in a village on the very outskirts of a large kingdom. Left her home at 20, made it to the village and set up at 21-22, and she is living there happily at 25! I love this girl so much and she really pulls her wait around town. The whole village is a tight nit community and though at first they were hesitant, they quickly grew to love her. Unlike other villages, this one mostly dose trades, of course they will happily take your money!
Once every other month she will hold a large gathering at her house in the forest for the whole village to join, she started this tradition her first winter there. We love a girl boss that almost gets herself killed in order to feed an entire village.
The First Encounter
First try at a comic!!! I did this in one sitting ;-;
What happens when you recently had a bad encounter with some humans and then you hear you kid calling for you? You fucking book it. Ya not great seeing your kid sorrowed by strangers.
This is Ruby! His body may be fully grown, but his mind has not aged past 9 in human years. When Kai passed his powers to Yoko, he felt the need to protect her. Then he found Ruby, a very malnourished dragon that would die soon if no one helped him. With consent from Ruby and help from the FSM, their soles were tied together and Kai started to take care of their body. Due too Ruby's disassociation, he doesn't really remember much before Kai came.
Ruby very much sees Kai as his dad, even though they share a body. With Kai helping him, he started disassociating less and even started to take control over their body. He very rarely is in control, but a win is a win. These pictures are how they see each other. Kai has no memories from before. This means the first few weeks they were surviving on pure instinct. While Kai does have all of Ruby's memories, he has basically non of his own, only remembering he wasn't always there with Ruby and Yoko was someone to protect.
I'm very happy with their character designs. The stripes come from Kai as you can see, and the main coloration comes from Ruby.
This took longer than expected, ended up having a few days where I never got myself to draw, but I finished it and I'm happy about that. This is also where I inform you that all full body poses showing off scars will the ken dolled.
Also, I fucking pulled an all nighter thanks to the ✨insomnia✨, so now I have another hyperfixation in lego ninjago. I am cursed to make stories and never finish them I swear ;-; But, I will most likely be expanding on my mcsm au and will not stop, this also means I now have a fucking ninjago au in my brain, one I already had in my brain thankfully so I'm not starting from scratch, that I wanna expand upon, so that's happening....
Ya, bla bla ADHD has doomed me
Ninjago phase Ninjago phase Ninjago phase Ninjago phase Ninjago phase Ninjago phase Ninjago phase Ninjago phase Ninjago phase
There's no way that the team doesn't fight over who gets to sit next to him in the winter, this man is a fucking space heater. Also same name! He may have had it first, but I think it suits me better ;)
Me and my cousin literally looked at baby names for like 20 minutes I love her so much ;^;
DRAGON TIMEEE
Ok, you know when you make up a story in your head and it slowly evolves into a masterpiece of angst? Ya that, I'm doing that. I LOVE dragons, the wof series is great. (This is not a skywing, I'm sorryyy) But I'm still on the Ninjago shit, SO KAI AS A DRAGON. Not an au where they were born dragons, he just died and said "Nah bitch, I got shit to do" and then woke up as a dragon. He is a fire dragon, and in this story he chose who would inherit his powers then demanded that he become a mortal again in order to protect her. This boi is a family man and he will protect his family at any cost.
Kai doesn't remember his family from before that well. They seem familiar when they first meet, but he doesn't know who they are. He ended up adopting the little girl he gave his powers too, her parents died and she was going home to home, then she ran into a large dragon and clung to it begging to not have to go back. And like the good boy he is, he grabbed her like a croc would it's babies and brought her to his cave. I think it would be a year and a half by the time the ninja meet this strange family. This is also an au where the merge NEVER HAPPANED. That means Wu is still there but man is practically digging his own grave with the shit he is doing.
Unlike with Nya and Cole, this shit is permanent. He died and he may be alive in a new body, but he has no memories from before. He only knows that he feels like he should protect certain people, and incinerate others :) Also I hc that dragons are much like humans in ninjago. They just don't have a language and live in dens. They can be tamed, but they have to want you as a friend first.
K I'm done rambling enjoy the boi
Look at this man, he is a complete dumpster fire in terms of both attitude and mental health.
Xander is a family man, so when his wife dies and his daughter becomes sick, he loses it. He is a possessive man over his family and relies on them completely for his sanity to stay in check, so when one of the two people who keeps you sane dies, you don't do too well. He comes from Readstonia so he has done a lot of experiments in his time, the recently they have become more... unhinged. He has been going man trying to find a cure for his daughter, but she has seemed to be adapting well. Sadly her father feels the need to "fix her".
Anyway, might experiment with making some small comics about the au, just something little :P
OH GOD ITS AN OC, NOOOOOO
This is Yoko, and she is the one Kai passed his powers too. She is 12 by the time the Ninja meet her and has been living with Dragon Kai for about a year and a half. It's been 2 years since his death. This girl has very terrible self preservation instance as she clung to a LITTERAL DRAGON AT 10 YEARS OLD. (She turned 11 a week after he took her in)
I was looking up names and Yoko means "Child of the Sun" which I thought was fitting. I didn't just want her to be new fire user TM so here are some of her hobbies.
Playing music
Making up stories
Climbing up things that shouldn't be climbed
Doodling
She is very cute and loves her dragon dad. Her main colors are Lavender and dark pinks with baby blue accents. I do need a different name for Kai, as he doesn't remember his name and was just called "dad" for the last year and a half. I am open to suggestions!
Been trying to get better at proportions and getting different positions, this took a bit longer since I experimented with so many different colors. On another note, 22 followers!!! I'm glad that people like my stuff, if you want to see anything specific feel free to ask!
Anyway, lots of hugs for yall <3
