(originally, this was one big post with all the rat king's, But i decided to split them all up into they're own posts so they all get they're own spotlight and to be easer for me, This has been in development for like 4 fucking day's i'm so happy im finally done with the first part 😭 Let's hope i didn't miss anything and it's all in order) I've finally made paper prototypes of all the rat kings, Mostly cuz I want an excuse to talk about they're lore, Keep in mind that most of these are temporary and will definitely change in the future, These drawings exist to give you an idea of what they resemble, Instead of describing they're appearances I give you a basic design, Anyway let's go! (also, This post has been in the drafts for a while, So if anything seems cluttered and contradictory, It's cuz I changed my mind halfway trough) Let's fucking GO NOW.
First up is Satan King, He is a bat rat from the cave's, Also making him the representative of all bats on Dirt, All kings represent a certain race of rat's for ULTIMATE EQUALITY (Also, In this world, Bats are the same as rats, It's like mlp logic, They're the pegasi to the rats earthpony, And i guess mice would be unicorn's?) (Also, He's lowkey a vampire! Sleeps in coffins, drinks blood, hates sunlight, Yknow, The whole nine yards) He is in charge of the military and police force (Basically protection) of Dirt (Dirt is they're home planet) He's a very...Short-tempered person, Being named after the demon of Wrath for a reason, The reason for his emotions? I have yet to decide, Maybe he feels pressure being a rat king and wants approval from his (dead) parent's? Maybe the stress is getting to him real bad? Or maybe anger issues just run in his family. I drew heavy inspiration from Roxie Richter from Scott Pilgrim (Also my voice claim for him) since, She's one of my favourite Character's writing-wise, A smaller inspiration was Blitzø from Helluva Boss. Design wise, The piercings in his ear's were designed to resemble devil horns (If you squint hard enough i guess) i also added a line onto every rat King's forehead, No real reason lore-wise, Just so i could keep track of who's oldeer and younger) As for what he'd wear, I'd imagine he'd wear like, super cute girly red clothes (Asmodeus got them for him) with armour designed into it, And probably band shirts on off-work days. Other fun facts, Satan's a landscape painter! He is a woman believe it or not (He just uses he/Him pronouns) He's a an absolute lesbian mess, He isn't used to positive attention from cute/hot women so he freaks out whenever he receives any from his wives (I should mention this now, I dunno if I mentioned this in an earlier post or not, But originally i made all the kings siblings, This has changed, They're now all in a polyamorious arranged marriage (Not a toxic one!) They're all either friend's or partners, I changed this so i could give them They're own unique childhood's and backgrounds and stuff) He is very well-versed in every weapon, Since combat is his favourite past-time. He is capable of flight, But due to his age (early 40s or smth) He doesn't do it as often anymore, Back in his prince day, He used to "Race against all the other Bats and he won everytime" (His words, Not mine) Nowadays he just drinks his [Insert Rat friendly beverage here] and reads newspapers, Out of the other King's, He's definitely the most "Evil" Like, He isn't a dictator by any means, He just...Likes violence (In a disney villian way) More than the average rat (He's the one who introduced wrestling/boxing stuff into Dirt) Anyway, What does his magical red (Yet to decide what kind of gemstones he has) eye's do? Well, They contain a toxic blood-like substance that'll burn you're skin upon touching it, Satan's preferred way of distributing it is through lacing his claws with it before clawing at someone, Though he can also release it into the air via shooting it trough his eye's. He was born on February 7th (One day I'll make rat month, year, day's)
That's all for general lore! Now as a finale, here are some Canon facts and headcanons bout him! (in this instance, Headcanon means that if it existed on Dirt, He'd partake in it)
~ He'd listen to Chappel Roan (His favourite song is Red Wine Supernova)
~ He'd love Helluva boss, His favourite Character would be Blitzo
~ His phone is those with the spiral wire (Red of course)
~ He loves chandler's
~ He loves to wear fuzzy stuff
~ He'd love Frank Sinatra (He's an old-fashioned gentleman)
~ He likes milkshakes (He and Asmodeus make them together when bonding)
~ He bakes with Beelzebub and Moss_Mary (They're bros) sometimes, They make stuff like cookies and pies
~ He drinks a lot of coffee
~ He'd love cherry Coca cola
~ His favourite candy is lollipops
~ Every year, He and Belphagor (They're friend's with benefits) deliver gifts during rat Christmas (I'm working on a rat equivalent to the winter holiday and I'll post a lore post as soon as I got it all figured out!) He dresses up as rat santa clause to deliver gifts to the children while Belphagor sneaks in gifts to the other King's without them noticing (Funded by the both of them) And no one knows it's them (Somehow)
~ He LOVES disco's, He doesn't even know why but he always joins Beelzebub (Casual Flirting with eachother at the moment) Whenever she goes out to party.
~ He likes wearing blood redlipstick, Makes him feel pretty (Asmodeus (She was arranged into the marriage very young since her siblings all DIED (Her lore wil drop later) She's basically the daughter to all the King's, Her and Satan have a father/daughter bond going on ) taught him how to apply it properly)
~ He smokes (Both steaks and ciggerates)
~ His favourite food is strawberry, He even has strawberry themed furniture (This is purely due to the ENORMOUS amount of ☆Aesthetic☆ red pictures on Pinterest being strawberries or cherries, I have Pinterest boards of all the rat kings and this guy lives, breathes and loves strawberries 💀)
~ He likes fireworks, During rat new years, he's the type to have like, 20 different mega fireworks that make those images in the sky
~ In his younger day's, He won many races and received many medals and trophies back up in the caves (The home to bat-kind)
That's all for now! Please share what you think of him and any suggestions on how I could improve his character or how I could design him :D
