Here’s part 1 of some side character doodles in my U13 au!
This one is about the gods of U13. Introducing the god of destruction, Calado and their angel, Zeraca!
I wanted to make their theme on free-spiritedness and luxury since the drinks that they’re based off of (“Piña colada” and a cocktail called “Sazerac”) are typically those that you get off of high end up scale party. These two care more about elegance and the amount of fun at a party they’re having rather than just only caring about the food.
In some sense, Calado acts more entitled than Beerus because of how particular their tastes are in multiple aspects. The reason as to why they want to destroy Planet Vegeta in the first place was because all they did was fight and to them, the Saiyans were boring because they solely focused on one goal and to Calado, stagnation was boring. Unpredictablity and spontaneity was more exciting for them. The only reason as to why they spared the planet from destruction was because they wanted what Beerus was predicted to have; a Super Saiyan God. If they just needed to wait for it then they were willing to do so. Despite their entitled nature, I think they would’ve been good friends with Beerus for their shared love of poking fun at their students and their matching chaotic energy.
Zeraca is a little different in methodology. He doesn’t simply go by his god’s orders and is more flippant in nature, sometimes taking an active role in the destruction of planets with his god. He’s also a lot more vapid than other angels, typically resorting to insults and cursing rather than settling for compromise. He’s a lot more emotionally involved in destructive decisions than most which in turn causes him to be more keen to do his own thing than following orders from the Omnipriest (which is probably one of the reasons why Universe 13 got destroyed along with the 5 others that were fucked over by Zeno) aside from that he continues to stand with Calado throughout, being practically thick as thieves. However, unlike Calado and Beerus, Zeraca doesn’t have the same connection with his Universe 7 counterpart. He and Whis mix about as well as oil and water and they typically exchange conversation via backhanded compliments and petty banter. He is one of the very few people to make Whis genuinely curse or get mad at but the one thing the two of them agree on is keeping Beerus and Calado happy and not wanting to tear away their friendship because of their squabbling.
