Pencil stuff wwhhhhaaaatttttt I'm sorry it's so messy, I tried to clean up the edges but poorly. So glad we have a scanner. I should use it more. Also sorry you haven't heard much from me - I have been trying very hard to get my OSOCT round up and finished before Friday. Still about ten pages to go. But I took a break from sitting in front of my computer to draw these duds. 

The villains for my See You Soon story! Well, the henchmen of the main villain. They carry out the orders of their leader Ezra Bloodbane, who takes orders from the Destroyer God, Cain. I don't want to go into too much detail. Too much to say that I'd be here all day.

"Aemaeth is the former Angel of Death. They left with their sister after the original Godwar and was rescued from certain oblivion by Cain. In return for saving their lives they agreed to serve Cain and spread word of his name. Upon Aemaeth's stomach is a void where every soul ever taken by Aemaeth reside. Cain has the ability to take the souls from the void to use for information extraction. They resent Cain more than any of the other Horseman but follow orders to keep an eye on Ciel-La. (Note: Aemaeth technically has no gender. Commonly referred to as a 'she' by their sister, but easily confused as being a man.)

Drecil is an undead boy resurrected by a necromancer, but he went insane from the pain he felt when granted life. He failed to obey the mage and wound up killing the man horrifically. Cain found Drecil hiding in an abandoned town not long after, and gave him a full-headed mask so he could form coherent thoughts. Drecil was so grateful for this control he agreed to serve Cain and accept his roll as the Horseman of Famine. Any individual he touches will inevitably become so starving they either stuff themselves until their stomachs burst or, morbidly, eat themselves to death. He is the least-liked of the Horsemen due to his arrogance. 

Ciel-La, formerly the Angel of Life, is the younger sister of Aemaeth. Cain saved her from a deadly Enceladus-based virus that was eating her alive. In exchange for her life she took on a new name, forgot all her previous memories, and the curse of Pestilence in the form of the very virus that was killing her.  Rather than kill her, it serves as her weapon called 'Outbreak'. She cannot touch anyone or anything without infecting them with the Enceladus (so she often wears oven-mitts to handle day to day tasks). She also has 'premonitions' from the gem upon her forehead, which are often quite accurate and have caused the locals to believe her to be some sort of prophet.

Odion is the oldest of the horsemen. He is the ghost of a fallen general who died on the battlefields of Iberia. Plagued by Disassociative Identity Disorder before his death, his normally composed and stoic self can be replaced at the drop of a hat by the passive and outgoing Artamis, or the raging, incomprehensible Atomysk. Cain freed him from wandering his battlefield prison and gave him reasonable control over his other personalities in exchange for being the leader of the four and serve as the Horseman of War. He despises most everything and everyone, but finds Ciel-La's premonitions important and serves as her bodyguard when in public." 

Uh, okay! That's all! Thanks for reading.
Or if you didn't read that's fine, I think I wrote it mostly for myself so I don't forget these important details. Thank you for stopping by to enjoy my art~! It's very much appreciated. 

(What's fun is that all of these characters have existed since I was... wow, young. Odion has been around since I was maybe 10, Aemaeth and Artamisis 13, and Drecil 14-15. Reborn babies...!)

Really?? I was afraid it'd be cliche. But they are harbingers for a God technically so it seemed appropriate!

Drecil is such a little butt. I dont have any mask characters but so many people habe great ones so...he looks like a wee luchadore!
