Entry for Sekira by FadingGlory

#SafariCon1
Here's my entry for @Sekira's contest! The goal is to adorn her creature with accessories. Because I'm indecisive and can't settle on a few accessories, I dumped all possible ideas here. XD

Name: Naaji
Gender: male
Age: 24 in human years
Size: 6'8" tall, 25' long
Personality: confident, independent, loner, mischievous.

Naaji lives by himself in the savanna and forages for food, both alive and dead. Although he is large, his thin and serpentine frame allows him to chase most prey down their burrows. He can last for several days without eating.

Enjoy!

Re: Well, thank you for the apology! I'll hopefully come up with different ideas that make it not look like i plagiarized. I'll just go through that massive design process that many thought was useless X'D
(Untill now X'D. )

was wondering if you take art trades?

re// Ask away buddy! As many questions as you want to

BloodHybrid

Re// Yeah they can look into other Zeharu's eyes without even slightly hurting them

Contacts? Maybe x'D The Zeharu human world is moving into more modern times, but Zeharu technology is more advanced, Raven could always give her something to help her look at humans/animals without killing them.

They can go a year without stealing a soul, the souls forever remain inside them, powering their lifesource until the beads are destroyed or the Soul-Thief is killed. The more souls they gather, the stronger they become.

Oblivion doesn't fear them, he's more annoyed, they're like natural enemies. Since Oblivion's job/purpose is to guide souls to their final resting place, it causes him extra work and is a huge pain for him to have to go after trouble makers (Zurie, Nekana, Raven)

BloodHybrid

30 May, 2017, 11:14 pm

Oh to add onto the year part, the reason they have to gather souls is because, as you know it keeps them alive, their mother will feed their egg souls so when they hatch, they already have energy to gather more.

Typically by 1,000 years old, Nekana/Zurie will have collected over 100,000 souls. They have to keep collecting them to stay alive, because some souls weaken over time and newer/younger souls give them more strength.

The longer a soul stays inside them, the more the soul will deteriorate and put the soul in an eternal purgatory, not even Oblivion can save the purgatory souls. Soul-Thief beads can heal over the course of 50 years, but the more beads destroyed, the weaker they are.

I hope that makes sense, I'm a little tired x'D

Re: thanks. And actually I'm still working on it... I should have had it finished... *sighs* but its not done yet..

BloodHybrid

Re// The souls can escape yes, they typically head back to where they died and wait there to be taken to their final resting place, but usually never make it back as Oblivion's minions or Oblivion himself with gather them up.

Oblivion frees them, that's a part of his goal, the second is to take them to the underworld and judge them there for the life they lived, any damaged souls will be healed there before moving on.

Yes, young adults to babies are the best source, terrible I know but true for them x'D

BloodHybrid

31 May, 2017, 4:28 am

Re// The Festival will be in the Zeharu homeworld, which is human-free, but they do have weird creatures that live there in their homeworld.

Oblivion is definitely their enemy, he usually will take their soul and have them be reborn as some useless Zeharu, out of spite, like Time Variants, which are typically eaten by their own kind so they can teleport between the human and Zeharu world x'D

You can decided with the whole capturing souls, they usually come straight towards the soul thief, but you can decide if she can use them as an attack or something

BloodHybrid

31 May, 2017, 4:52 am

Re// Other Zeharu aren't too familiar with soul thieves and typically don't care, the only one who would know besides the ancients, would be Eiro and she'd be more excited than anything

Most Zeharu will be in their human forms to find a mate or dance with their mates. Or will dance and play with friends, they tend to dress formal, something to attract others to them

I'm fine with a private conversation and req :>

You dont have to but I am certain, your entry and maybe having her in the rp would be fine and count as not neglected :3

Hello there,

My name is Cubetrap. I co-own a Flipnote Hatena replacement server on the DSi called Freenote. I was going through and I came across this dragon, and some of your other art. If you would be down for it, we at Freenote would LOVE to use some of your art as Creators Room themes.

If you are as interested in this deal as we are, please contact me as soon as you get this.

PS: i don't use colors for communication, so don't attempt to contact me here.

Re: In a sense. Its more like for those people who kinda struggle with making a description/background on a new character they have made. I make the story for the character. And the people interested get to draw what they think the person would look like. And I guess I may choose a winner? Or let everyone have their version drawing of that character? Depends on how many character design stories I want to make I suppose.

Re// She could steal bits and pieces of his soul, if she managed to get enough Raven would become her puppet. But he wouldn't make it easy and he knows when his birds are destroyed, she'd have to be quick about it.
