Description Okay, here's my new villain OC, who also happens to be another demon! lol I wanted him to be visually contrast Astaroth's design . For this design, I wanted to make it look as if he litterally drove straight out of Hell. I wanted him to look a bit more beast/ feral like in opposition to the sleek looking Astaroth, so I made his tail more reptilian (not the stereotypical demon tail) and gave him horn not only on his head, but on his knees (in opposition to the horns on Astaroth's shoulders). THe flames on his body are also meant to sort of be like a giant birth mark. His skin isn't red because of the lighting of the background, it really is just naturally red (These colours are actually the colours in normal lighting). For those who wish to see the character without a background and pure colour reference, go here: [link]

Now on to the good part, the bio:

Name: Vetis, The Corrupted
Age: Unknown
Vetis always relished power. He hated his ennemies and wished he had the power to destroy all who opposed him. One day, the demon Astaroth appeared before him. Vetis struck a deal with Astaroth. In this deal, Vetis agreed to solemnly obey Astaroth, if Astaroth could render him the powers of a demon. Once he became a demon, Vetis began his mission of vengeance and power, though always at the beck and call of Astaroth (although Astaroth barely called for the help of Vetis, so he didn't mind). Vetis is very unstable and sometimes lies almost on the edge od insanity. He's impulsive and leaps first without thinking. He has a lot of anger and he loves to show it with his newly obtained demonic powers. He not only has the normal set of powers a demon would have (like the ability to consume souls), but he can run considerably faster than an average human and he has tectonic powers. With his tectonic powers, he can turn any battlefield into a ring of fire along with earthquakes. He normally tends to deal with the fire/ lava aspect of his powers though.

Okay, if I can't convey anything else, I want to convey that Vetis is a "Wild Child". XD Anyways, I have a certain story arch for him, which is actually more interesting than what I wrote here, but if I did write it, it would basically be like a giant spoiler. lol

It'll be very interesting to see the opinions on this guy.

Really cool design. Mind if I do a short story on how he and Astaroth met and how he became a demon for your contest?Ā

Haha, thank you! It's always interesting to see people's reactions to Vetis since he's really different from characters I would normally draw.

Actually, I have another demon OC that you might encounter, named Astaroth. I have a couple of Demon OCs on the way in the near future too. The next one isn't as vicious as Vetis is though. XD So yeah, you will be seeing more of tuff like this. XD

Thank you, I thought it would be a cool little idea to add to him, especially to symbolize that he's been corrupted.

Ha ha, i'm gonna like this guy. I already want to see more of him. The design is awesome, was "Blue Exorcist" any influence?

Haha, I'm really happy about how Vetis has been received. Everyone seems to like him a lot for whatever reason. XD
I'm happy to hear so.
Sort of, at least in his arm glove thingies. When I first saw Amaimon, I really liked the idea of those arm things and I sort of just slipped it in from there.

Yep, definitely gonna like Vetis. His bio sold me. Love how you added that he's at the beckon call of Asteroth but Asteroth has yet to call on him lol

Destron23 In reply to Lord-Naraku [2013-02-21 18:42:29 +0000 UTC]

Haha, I hoped that you would. lol

XD, I jsut love to make bios and background stories. lol

Yeah, when Astaroth makes a deal, he becomes quite calculating and has sort of a strategy in mind that will benefit him the most. While Vetis has to obey Astaroth, or else (if I ever make a comic, I'll be getting into what that "or else" is lol), Astaroth doesn't really like to be around others, so when he summons Vetis' help, it's usually for something very important. For a majority of the time, Vetis gets to do what he wants.

Yeah, I'm fixing to start revamping my character bio drawings and giving them little stats and stuff like that to kind of set them aside from other drawings I do.

Also, I'm gonna update and probably extend their back-stories and bios.

That would be very cool! I love not only seeing the characters, but learning more about them too.

Sounds great! Hope I'll see it relatively soon. lol

OoOo~ I really like this design and you did a great job of contrasting him against Astaroth in both the use of cool vs warm coloring. And also just the mood of the characters are different because Astaroth carries with him a more cool and elegant design whereas Vetis is more rough and stuff. You really did an amazing job with this. I really love his tail and the marks on his body, it was a very nice touch~

Destron23 In reply to PitifulServant [2013-02-21 18:38:19 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, my main goal was to contrast the two. That was sort of a problem with my ghost OCs, they all pretty much looked too much alike on an overall scheme, so when it came to creating another OC that was the same sort of creature as another, I really wanted the two to contrast, yet still have it apparent that they were both demons. Haha, yeah, Astaroth's more, how should I say... "posch/ swave" whereas Vetis is very animalistic and primal (not that he's dumb or anything, perhaps a bit gullible though). Awww, shucks, thank you! Yeah, the tail detail is one of my favourite parts about the design. It's like a demon version of a dinosaur tail, whereas Astaroth's is more traditional. I though the marks would be cool too since they're symbolic of his corruption from starting as a human to becoming a demon.
