#cu'somadi

Got a lot of OCs that might be called witches or practice "witchcraft", but the one that comes to mine is the goddess of the Cu'Somadi people from my original worldsetting, Hine-Monani. Hine-Moani has many nicknames. To her people, she is The Mystic Sage, the teacher of the True Path. The Holder of a Thousand Lives.

To others she is known as the Witch of the Twilight, The Puppetmaster of Souls, and Murderess of the Ancestors, depending on who you ask! Although a minor goddess of the greater Celestial Pantheon, very few come close to her knowledge of the mystic arts making her a patron of spellcasters and puppet makers, both of which are held in highest regard in Cu'Somadi society. She is not one to cross... she is very quick to remove those that are a nuisance to her research...

Have so many OCs to pick from...but going to have to go with Aramet! Real name Heng Jia although that is only known to his immediate family as per the cultural norm of his people, the Cu'Somadi.

He's a confident mastermind of the Clan of the Scorpion, although to most he just seems like a well educated typical Cu'Somadi merchant cutting deals. He rules the family from behind the scenes, having his eldest sister act as the figurehead to take the heat. He cares for his family and treats all in his employment well, earning loyalty in the ranks....however cross him and his more sadistic side can come out quickly and he is not above being cruel when it comes to giving punishment. Always polite and well spoken. Always a delight to talk with. To most, he is the ideal Cu'Somadi that many strive to copy.

However...some would fault him for being a bit emotional with his reactions, especially if someone he keeps close to him is hurt. Especially touching his younger siblings. He will not hesitate to murder.

(Aramet without all the mask coverings! Only revealed to super close family, as per tradition of Cu'Somadis to mask their identities!)

Honestly? Hard to call...like...most of them WOULD survive and the other half is probably the monster of the horror movie XD

It was easier to think of a character that would probably NOT survive the horror movie plot :b

Been worldbuilding my own stuff lately and honestly...it has been doing 100% more for my mood and creative energy. I actually WANT to share this art XD;;

One of the people of my setting, the Cu’Somadi, practice a questionable art of turning things (and people) into servant puppets. I had long ago written it down and broke it down into categories, but decided to do a visual guide for it c: 

 Some quick paints I did yesterday and today as wanted to work on designing and finalizing OC designs and species designs c:  Also it is a practice in not blending with blender tools, instead using brushes alone to create the shadows and highlights and bleed messy brush style into colors!  Very happy with results!   More about characters shown in read more!
