Sunset Thieves Chapter 4 - The First Expedition

<Prev

I had to do it xD

I love the idea that Zorah (or Noir, as its prefers to be called) ends up staying in Popstar, completely free to go wherever he wants, but he knows he now has a place where they're waiting for him with open arms.

I'm eager to show this adventure in short mini-comics, mainly because I don't want to wait for the AU comic, but it would be set after the Forgotten Land.

i have returned to wish our favorite magical, drivers licenseless, konpeito-loving wizard the very happiest of Births! i hope you enjoy trying to find all the little details i fit into this, i had so much fun making it!! 🥺 i've been super busy with school and other stuff but i'm hoping to post more art soon!!

After catching a strange crystalline disease, Admiral now seeks answers. He can't remember where he caught it from (or when), but one day, he woke up with it sprouting from the base of his wings. He knows his time is limited, so he must hurry. He travels across planets seeking a cure & will not tolerate anyone who gets in his way.

I'm finally getting around to sharing my Aeon Heroes + Their Copy Abilities (I will be including Galacta in this series of pictures) Starting with Mitsuki! (her design was way too much fun lmao. I kept procrastinating on Nightlight XD) Mitsuki, the Azure Flame (She/Her, Trans) Mitsuki is one of the four Aeon Heroes and one of the last remaining Halcandrans, having been safely placed into a stasis pod that launched just before the planet was (mostly) destroyed. the pod crashed millions of years later, and she was taken in by the same tribe of ninjas that would one day have Yamikage among their ranks. Years later She along with her companions would end up fighting and defeating Void Termina, thus being named the 'Aeon Heroes'. While the four where all good friends, Mitsuki often got along the most with Galacta, as both of them had a thirst for battle that the other two couldn't quite match. The Astral was usually her 'dance partner' in battle, and they made a rather terrifying duo. Its unknown what happened, but at one point during the war with Nightmare, centuries after the other two Aeons died of age, Mitsuki and Galacta mysteriously disappeared. It's still unknown what happened to them...

Aeon Ability : Burning Dancer

Introducing, Aeon Abilities! these are extremely powerful copy abilities that Kirby can have, but their only obtainable by being gifted them from their respective Aeon Hero. Burning Dancer is technically the third Aeon Ability Kirby unlocks, but Mitsuki got her design/ideas finished first so it's gonna be a bit out of order lmao. Kirby looks like he's having fun though! Extra lil' tidbitss

One of Mitsuki's inspirations is Mizutsune from Monster hunter, which is where the lil' face fin things came from. Her being trans is funnily enough also a nod to Mizutsune. all of the Mizutsune you fight in MH are males that are overly aggressive because it's breeding season, so I thought it would be nice to add a little reference to that (not to mention I just like making queer characters LMAO)

Mitsuki's name was originally going to be Koshiyou, which, if I had done my job correctly, meant 'Fox Blossom' however I googled it and I kept finding all kinds of different meanings? so in the end I decided to just play it safe and go with Mitsuki (Beautiful Moon/Light-Hope)

Another of Mitsuki's inspirations was Reshiram from Pokemon. the whole thing started because I had gotten a Reshiram Plushie and had started brainstorming a halcandran based on Reshi lmao. It's where Mitsuki gets her blue eyes, white fur, and ear/wing shape!

Her other inspirations were Skarrsinger Karmellita (HK Silksong) and Yotsuyu and the Dancer Job from FFXIV. the Yotsuyu inspirations was mostly just looks and the pipe she has honestly lmao. Karmelita and Dancer however is how I like to picture her moveset, hence the chakrams.

Mitsuki and Galacta are pretty much BFFs. It's been joked multiple times in the GSA that Mitsuki is Galacta's 'Emotional Support Lesbian'

Funnily enough, using Mizutsune for inspiration actually gave me a theme to work with for the entire group lmao.

Her outfit gave me the most trouble, since I wanted her to have a kimono since almost all of her inspirations where japanese, but at the same time I needed it to match Galacta's Aeon armor. I also wanted it to not look constricting, which also didn't help.

Happy birthday to my beloved @diroxide 💜

Forever the Nia to your Simon 🌀
