I AM [NOT] THE VOID {Warframe}

So... Duviri Paradox, huh?

I saw some people on the Warframe subreddit talking about ol' meme speech man, Corrupted Vor. Considering that the last few years have been focused 90% on the Void in some form lore-wise (Heart of Deimos with Entrati lore, The New War with more Entrati lore + Eternalism fuckery + the Lad in the Slab trying to roll on in at the very end, Duviri Paradox is Soon™), people are trying to grab everything Void-related to vaguely try and predict things/piece things together. One little thing that some people have noticed is that we haven't hear a peep from/about Corrupted Vor in the Void in years. Just what could be up with him lore-wise, considering how much he preaches about the Void and dwells in Tier 4 of the Void (not-Zariman Void), along with the fact that he was literally rezzed by a Void Key and is held together with golden energy after being bisected. Then again, DE barely acknowledges his existence... but we can never know until we see.

So I decided to draw an idea, Corrupted Vor outright twisted by the Void into something Zariman Angel-esque. He's significantly larger (see the Void Key in his right hand), the original golden energy is replaced by webbed blue energy and has grown more out-of-control from his bisected chest, the right side of his face (with the prosthetic eye) has opened into a hole like the empty faces of the Angels, and his body has been transmogrified into the endlessly spiraling Void metal of the Angels, among other things and tiny little baby wings to go with his chicken feet kasdhaksd. Honestly, I think that if they were to bring Corrupted Vor back in Duviri, he'd probably look more like what we've seen from Duviri (the synthetic Dax, Kaithe, etc.) than from the Zariman, but trying to find good references makes me want to stab myself lmao (especially since I drew this in MS Paint jsadaj).

Drawn in MS Paint, made transparent + fancy outline in Photoshop.

I hope you like it!

Extra Design Notes (under the cut):

Here, have a Warframe meme that I forgot I made a while back.

(For those out of the loop, this is (part of) the speech recited by Vor when you encounter him in the Void before he spawns. Which... can happen a lot.)

Continues under the cut (yes, I did nearly the entire speech like this):

In case you were wondering what I've been drawing instead of the Chaos bird lately.

(Depths of the Void, Update 13.7)

Corrupted Vor is the Corrupted version of Captain Vor, resurrected by his Janus key after his defeat at the hand of the Tenno, and bound eternally to the Void. He can be encountered in the Void, on the Tier 4 branch from Sedna (Aten, Mithra, and Mot). There is a chance he will spawn in at any point during the mission.
