Who would you say is your favourite character ret-con? Obviously we've done a fewā Angel-Charlie, Alastor-Vincent, but out of all of the characters you've changed from their canon iterations, who's your personal favourite?
From, your irl favourite!
Thank you for the ask! Always asking the tough questions š
The Damnedverse
A Helluva Reimagine
I would say that I have different favourites for different things and aspects.
1. I would have to say my favourite visual redesign is Valentino Belmonte. (Tumblr glitched out and deleted this paragraph so Iām rushing this one) I chose to change his design from a moth to a peacock to fit the damnedverseās rules of Lust Sinners have bird designs with blue colour pallets. I think the animal itself fits my take on his personality and the idea of a peacocks train replacing Valās wing-cape is such a stunning idea Iāll probably never be able to draw. A close second is Vincent Hindsiteās soul/face eater design. I feel like it really plays into his analogue horror + cannibalism vibes from the original and his facelessness (besides a giant mouth) shows his dedication to radio over video. Iām also really proud of the decision to make him see the world monochromatically.
2. My favourite biological redesign is Vox Populi (another Iām yet to post about) as Iāve changed certain things around the mechanics over him changing his head and having gills to actually make sense biologically. A close second is Lucifer Shacar, who actually needs his cane to walk after his fall and has a multitude of viable and hidden weaknesses because of that day, Iām unsure if his cane serves the same purpose in canon but is just not being explicitly stated?
3. My current favourite human-backstory redesign is kind of undecided since hardly any have been confirmed in canon so itās more of what I came up with on my own. Sooo
4. This could be due to recency bias but my favoruite ship revamp is Widowers. Iāve chosen to merge SnakeBomb and HuskerDust into a ship between Basil Princeton and Charlie Eclipse to remove clutter from the cast and have more defined and expanded relationships and I have grown to love their dynamic and angst so much! Close seconds are (of course) the main two couples A&E and Carmathan as well as what Iām going to with Lyra and the Exorcist Commander later on in the story.
5. Overall, I would have to say my favourite current ret-con has to be Charlie Morningstar becoming Carma Ben Shacar. From her out-of-place name becoming Carma, to Ben Shacar meaning āson (child) of Morningā, to her design making her look less like a gender swap of Lucifer. I also just love what Iāve decided to change about her lore and power ranking (some of this yet to be revealed) as well as the dynamic Iāve managed to make out of the Princess of Pride (the embodiment of confidence) dating the Duke of Envy (the embodiment of admiration). I also adore her new dynamic with her father, making the moments of parent-child interactions between them feel all the more earned.
In short, I love them all equally but some are currently more developed than others. However, donāt take this love as hesitancy to kill them off like certain writers.
