Please send one in, I'd really appreciate it!
Silly Vardengard, forgetting your words. Don’t you hate it when your witty comebacks leave you mid-sentence?
Let’s see… some fun info. Vardengard was the very first male OC I ever made and to be honest he actually hasn’t changed that much since then, except for getting upgrades along with my style. He was originally a demon, which in the Between Heaven and Hell universe meant that he was a mortal who willingly surrendered himself to the service and will of the embodiment of evil. Now he has a slightly different backstory. He had horns which were eventually dropped and his long prehensile tail was black and spade-tipped. He also wore a LOT more belts and chinese-styled clothes. His ears were also more cliche elven-like than the wide animal-like ears. Otherwise his chief characteristic of being modeled after bishonen hasn’t changed much, but I gave him much more distinct Caucasian features and cheekbones. And his ponytail has stuck around- it serves absolutely no narrative or cultural purpose at all. It’s purely design and he’s had it so long he looks really weird without it. A touch of asymmetry to reflect his underlying unbalanced life.
I did try giving him black hair once, but he quickly was fixed and his dark red hair is a permanent part of his design.
