Some Hunter sketches! I recently got into the owl house and fell in love with this lil wet cat of a boy
[Image description: digital art of Hunter from The Owl House. He's seen in his Golden Guard cloak, initially with his mask off. He has a neutral expression, with some parts of his face reddened in addition to his scars. On the side is a drawing of him in his usual gold mask, followed by a drawing of him in the standard coven scout mask. A curl of his hair is sticking out, and even through the mask, he's conveying a nervous energy. End description.]
I love the difference between Hunter in the show and his beta versions
I really like all of the silly traumatic scenarios that you come up with for hunter
I was wondering if you have an AO3 account?
Thanks! Hunter is my current blorbo which means he suffers :3
I do have a AO3 account! It’s WiltingBunny
I only have one unfinished fanfic that I’ve been neglecting in there (whoops) but I also have my bookmarks public!
I love how Hunters eyes are naturally a bit droopy
Droopy eyed Hunter supremacy
I headcanon that he squints his eyes to make himself appear more serious. However when neutral or not over thinking on how he presents himself, his eyes droop. He got those sleepy eyes, even after he finally rests lol. It makes him look a bit softer idk. I think he either has a resting bitch face or that
Edit: I fixed the art. Also glad y’all liked this post :)
Is needing raw meat and blood the only traits hunter has in this AU? or does he have others?
Nope, our boy developed increased senses like better smell, hearing and eyesight. One big difference between Hunter and the other witches is that his ears are constantly moving, detecting every little sound and are more emotive in general. It’s cute if not odd to the other witches.
One clear difference is his teeth. While witches can have fangs, Hunter chompers are absolute killers compared to theirs. His canines jut outwards a bit to stab into his prey and hook his teeth under their skin, making it impossible to escape without causing excessive bleeding. His later incisor and first molar are sharp to tear into meat better. The rest molars are relatively normal if not a bit sharper than usual. He does have an extremely strong jaw that can break through bone, fun when eating jaw breakers but also means if he gets you, he ain’t letting go without at least a piece of you with him.
His biggest differences are in the inside with his digestive system with developing a smaller intestine, colon and cecum making it difficult to get any sort of nutrients from normal food. He found that outside of raw meat and blood, raw eggs and certain dairy products are fairly good. (Fish too but that’s included in meat)
Eyes constricting happened during hunting since it’s a way to protect the eyes if sun is out. Basically the pupil and iris getting really small.(it also makes him look a bit scary)
Their some other grimwalker head canons thrown in here like immunity to the heat like boiling rain and fire, lack of pulse, stone lungs when sleeping, and being able to hold his breathe for a really long time. This is all to build Grimwalkers to be super predators in a way, something for witches to fear. heheh they’re kinda like cats.
Thank you for the ask :33
Here’s some extra references
Okay regarding your late redemption au: so I know Hunter did not take a trip into Belos mind. So what does he know regarding all that? Like does he know he is a grimwalker? How much in the dark is this boi?
He is deep in the dark I fear. He discovers it himself when he finds Belos lab or study at some point post kings tide. Belos and Hunter stick together for some time after kings tide so this would be during a little retrieval mission for Belos. He would be denial and shock until he’s forced to confront it all.
Neither of them make it to the human realm.
Im still fleshing the story out so maybe this will change but this is what I got for now
Oomf inspired me…. His costume… boy why you so ears. I think the hexsquad should all go as pikmin for Halloween with Willow as Captain Olimar (because she’s the captain!!)
Miss this Au, I have so old wips I need to get to for this one
