Arise, Ashkiss

@deepstrasz hmmm sorta. Something or someone awful caused her death.

Finish Him
Maybe you can find the link between those pics

@ZethHolyblade Agreed on women with abs. I don't value that personally - as long as the weight is not VERY unhealthily low or VERY unhealthily high, I don't really care. I suppose if I had one personal preference in terms of a female's form - aesthetics are NOT my first criteria, but IF I had one preference - it would be smaller breasts.

Anyway, as far as the rest? I'd care more as to whether they were OK with where they were at physically. If they were, cool. I'm done on the physical front. If not, I would need to get more information - not on the physical part - but on how they're dealing with what they are not ok with. If they had identified a specific problem, done some work brainstorming solutions and tried at least a decent # of them (let's say 5 - idk. It's a low number and I seem to have some affinity for it lol). Whether they had found a solution that worked yet is not relevant. Inner beauty and all that, right?

Let's use two, imo uplifting examples in more modern motion pictures. Regarding the first, I admit that THAT extreme of overweight would probably require some effort on my part to overcome on the physical attraction front - assuming it was a relationship in which that was important. Plus, as I prefaced with not VERY unhealthily high, but eh. Regarding the second, notice there is no physical change. All mental. Think about it. See the difference it makes? It's HUGE and in the film, the character doesn't even REALIZE it was purely a mental shift until she sees two pictures right next to each other.

Hnm to summarize a few aspects of her backstory..

She was around her mid 30s at the time of her death, born during the fantasy equivalent of an early european dark-ages period and setting to my story, of barbarian/celtic ascend which is why she's taller (around 1.72m ) and more muscular than an average woman even though she herself wasn't a combatant but more of a local healer, or herb woman, and a hermit to her tribe (alledged witch too).

She wasn't an evil person, and yet her soul and body were dragged to Hell by sinisters forces, which is very rare (especially claiming the body).

Arriving at the realm of Violence, expected to be used as substance to the Phlegethon and the Bloodfall, the local King sensed the raw potential and rage locked up within in her, derived from the horrid, unjust fate and death she suffered, and reforged her as a Violence demon (with memory loss) and left to wander outside his domain as a subtle extension of his will onto the other Hellish kingdoms he's at war with (pretty much everyone else).

She endured the horrors and tortures in the realms of Dread, Sorrow, Vanity, and Lust, causing havoc too as her inner rage (and never before seen lust for vengeance) proved to be too strong and unusual for the local denizens and their masters.

She would bore the Queens of Dread and Sorrow and their minions as she grew inmune to their tortures.
She would outright piss the Queens of Vanity and Lust off as she broke the former's mirror (and confidence using what she learned in the previous domians) and harmed/maimed/slain the later's consorts.

All this to the delight of the King of Violence, and the King of Fraud too who took interest in what was unfolding.

Rather than being erradicated, the Queen of Lust sent her to the Wrath kingdom where the true physical torments began and were very effective, for a while.

Until the day came where she began to enjoy the pain, to relish it, becoming a succubus and killing her torturer despite him being an elite cast megadaemon creature which caught the eye of King Alaster (Wrath) who welcomed her to his own circle.

With her newly gained powers, her mind twisted and soul defiled, she found herself a new home and purpose by becoming a sadist agent of Wrath and Violence.

@ZethHolyblade Damn man. I like that. Great story! I need to direct my incoming data stream elsewhere right now though. I will revisit later. Great artwork! In and of itself, a picture can tell a thousand words. But. The exact words are shaped by not only the artist's intention, but the perception of those who view itl.

@deepstrasz, just the first few minutes of the intro

@ZethHolyblade That's a damn good backstory!
She has seen Hell, that's true

Also your concept of demon "reproduction" from human souls is really intersting and is very different from mine
Do angels appear the same way?

@xISLx I don't get it. By the way, boring

@deepstrasz You mistook a succubus for a guy, so I decided to show another "ambiguous" character

@xISLx the enemy? That's an incubus, right? I didn't think of that character as a female.

@deepstrasz That's one of the deadly sins, Lust

The story of that game might be a bit flawed, but I did enjoy how they explored the different themes of the characters

Usually Lust is shown as a mere carnal desire, but in Darksiders 3, Lust was shown as lust for power, a desire for one's greatest wish, and a great force of tempation
Not just as a naked demoness with tits like in other games

@xISLx it's like a comic book. Even some anime are better looking or more presentable.
Note that Cleopatra was a queen, hence lust was not only sexual in nature.
