Ramblings of a mad woman
Disclaimer: I might get some things wrong about the characters because I've only watch a bit of the Lupin franchise so if anyone knows more about these characters pls inform me or make your own version and I would gladly support it
ZENIGATA
At first Zenigata was gonna be like a robot entity to a literal wall to showcase his imposing figure. His men are also walls but a different size and color .They close in on their target essentially trapping them in their new prison
I was just playing around with his coat collar until it resembled a diamond, which inspired me to turn him into a squid shape creature with rope cuff hands.It's kinda funny that I just only realized Lupin has a fear for Squids and now pops looks like one but he is still a softie so maybe he gets a pass?
He can produce an army of ink men to aid him on his duty
GOEMON
I wanted his creature design to reflect his calm yet stoic demeanor and how he just goes where the wind will take him.I also based him off of Kubo and the two strings(great movie btw)
So I designed him to be composed of papers! They can flow through the wind and can cut you when you least expect it
FUJIKO
At first I wanted her body to be that of a lighter and her hair to be the fire but i had a hard time conceptualising it so for now she is all flames.
I wanted the flames to showcase how fire can give comfort and warmth but get too close and it will burn and hurt
Fujiko from what i've seen will do whatever she has to in order to achieve her goals (and we love her for that Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girl boss fr) but she can also be sweet and genuine from time to time
JIGEN
I don't know where I saw it but basically Jigen was describe as Lupin shadow and so I made him a literal shadow with a gun
I also made him a shadow because how loyal he is towards his friends and how content he is of being overshadowed by Lupin's grandiose antics(?)
Jigen cannot manifest as a 3d being. He sticks to flat surfaces as a 2d being
I also kinda made a semi origin for this Jigen
-The dark is one being consists of voices,thoughts and feelings designed to drive one mad if they stay too long within it
One of those thoughts/voices/feelings was Jigen before a certain individual showed up and managed to intrigued him so much
He became his own being, the shadow, but with this new freedom came with a cost. He can never go back to the dark lest he risk merging with it again and losing himself, even if sometimes he misses the comfort it once gave him-
LUPIN
Ngl I had a hard time on this mofo
I couldn't come up with a design I want for him.at first he has a fushigi ball for a head to showcase how he distorts his surroundings to fit his vision
But then I got a wonderful idea of just keeping Lupin as a concept rather than an actual being
Lupin is now a concept with no real body instead he steals parts and builds himself an Avatar he uses to interact with the world around him (so his form above is fake but that's his favorite form also it messes with humans seeing as how he looks like a regular person with mask)
So yeah cosmic horror Lupin for the win let's go!
(If it's a little confusing just think of Lupin as a sort of mimic but with extra steps)
He can be anyone or anything and you'll never know ,fortunately for you this mofo is too much of narcissist that he will gladly reveal himself to gloat
Shit this is a good concept AU!!!
