Bishops!

Some information about bishops and their designs in my AU

Shamura design for AU

Why I have a special interest in Shamura and why I chose certain design features can be read if you open the post in full

English is not my native language

— Why Shamura? —

It started with the banal: Knowledge is close to me. As a result, my AU Shamura turned out to be quite similar to me in terms of views and feelings of the world, so I put special emphasis on them (this does not mean that I forgot about the rest of the bishops, in fact, I like all of them).

— Design —

References

My friend and I assumed that the name ‘Shamura’ has an Indian vibe. I spent some time studying the Indian gods, coming to the conclusion that Shamura somehow resembles Indra in my AU. In addition, ‘Shamura’ sounds like ‘Shakra’, which translates from Sanskrit as ‘mighty’ and is one of the names of Indra.

From this, I decided that it was worth focusing on the Indian style of clothing: collar, ‘dress’, wide trousers. Shamura also has lush curly hair, which is more likely a reference to Kali.

Four hands also refer to Indian mythology: gods are often depicted with two or more pairs of hands.

Features

Shamura from my AU has slightly unnatural, as if constrained movements. The facial structure suggests that expressing emotions will be difficult, since before receiving the crown, Shamura was very stingy about expressing emotions (they did not know how to express them)

Speaking of AU, I want to note that, according to my ideas, references to religions existing in our world are divine features, such as two pairs of hands. That is, before receiving the crown, Shamura, like all humanoid creatures (if they do not have any anomalies), has two hands.

However, the second pair of eyes is an atavism, not a divine feature. They were blind in their mortal lives.

Symbolism

There are some symbols on the clothes, I changed them regarding the game, but each of them plays a different role:

— You may notice that there is an emphasis on double stripes on clothes — this is duality, to some extent, disunity, but I prefer to keep silent about the context.

— The crescent moon sounds more obvious: it is an alchemical symbol meaning the moon or silver. In the future, if there is a desire, I will note that this is a ‘paired’ symbolism with Kallamar, which in turn bears the symbol of the sun / gold.

— A circle with six stripes means the process.

— The cross, a symbol that is present in the game itself, is present in Shamura and Leshy — the closing links of the chain.

Bishop Kallamar is brought to your attention! 🦑

Leshy's first word.

A little explanation of what's going on here: Heket is the second eldest after Shamura (in my au of course), and sincerely believes that the younger ones should always listen to her, and Kallamar is very annoyed by this. And Narinder is just unlucky (he constantly gets into trouble)

I finished my design for Bishop Leshy! I hope you all like him.

YOUR HONOR! THEY’RE IN LOVE!! 💜💜✨ Ahhh I’ve been obsessing over ShamGoat, they’re so adorable together

The rest I done but the dipping pose is my favorite 💕✨
