#czyrus

I feel it coming ap4rt

Heyyy, long time no see. Look at what I dug up! Actually there were supposed to be several panels for this one but for various reasons I ran out of steam mid-work. This one was already finished, though, so...

It was supposed to explain Czyrus' and thus also kind of Szakoi's backstory (and pitch into the Godmode anime thing). The gist: Szakoi is neither the first nor the last incarnate of corruption. After he attained consciousness, he was invariably drawn to Czyrus, his predecessor. His looks are based on what I looked like a few years ago, haha.

The different incarnates tend to have different shticks. While Szakoi is obviously glitch-based, Czyrus' speciality was corruption in people. But it turned out there was vastly more technology to glitch than hearts to corrupt, which means Szakoi eventually overpowered Czyrus and devoured him.

To be fair, he was kind of on autopilot for that one. Corruption generally tries to connect to its other parts. It's a bit like mercury, really.

At current, Szakoi is the main expression of corruption, and he's absolutely terrified of the next incarnate devouring him. In the meantime, the predecessors live on inside Szakoi as fragmented personality parts, Czyrus being the strongest. He is a bit of a mixture between an alternate self and an older brother living in his head: He can try to pull together his fragments, restore himself and event attempt a take over, or he can blend in more smoothly into Szakoi's personality. It depends on what's going on inside Szakoi's brain. Like if he was a little less fucking hostile and broken, maybe...

but I found this... weird short that I'd never seen before??

Do you think it's a leak?? idk personally I think it looks more like fanwork... (They did announce some in-depth views on Szakoi but tbh this guy looks like a shitty OC pft)

But the main problem is, no matter where I look

THE VIDEO IS CORRUPTED AS HELL! I can't even make out anything..!!

lol hoo dis
