Well, since I gave Sercoravus a nice new reference, it's only fitting I give his brother, the Voice of Hope, an update as well XP

When Sercoravus chose to be evil, he ironically and unintentionally gave up some of his creative powers, which resulted in him being weaker and Rinaru getting stronger. Needless to say, if Sercoravus with all his OP powers doesn't challenge this guy to a fight, you know Rinaru's //OP// (Ser just doesn't like admitting it)

But, similar to Sercoravus, Rinaru doesn't go around flaunting off his power, instead, he's mostly behind the scenes, just trying to make sure Sercoravus doesn't end up completely ruining everyone's lives or messing up too many worlds. Granted, in my worlds, there is a much higher chance of him showing up in one of his other forms than there is for Ser to appear, since Rinaru actually likes people and isn't super evil like his brother :P

Rinaru and Sercoravus both have symbolism to their design and function, I like to think of Rinaru as a blank canvas and the paint to create something beautiful, Sercoravus is a black smudge trying to ruin it, or Rinaru is a beautiful song while Sercoravus is an off-key note. Sercoravus is art block, Rinaru is inspiration, the motivation to make something stunning.

Rinaru's songs:

Tribe of Heavenly Gods ~ Okami
Rising Sun ~ Okami
Akuro Beaten (Eclipse) ~ Okamiden
And Then, To CODA ~ Solatorobo, Red the Hunter
