I see a pattern in my fav characters

Secondary character important but often overshadowed by their main cast friends, definitely not the writer’s favorite child with half a backstory flashed out enough to make them interesting but vague enough i can take my own spin on it without feeling out of place

Bonus point if they constantly switch between sweet and unhinged

#bearz rambling tag #here’s me listing all my blorbos #ahum #let’s see *pulls out a large sheet*#DCA of course you know me #Mikey(2018 specific)#definitely not the writer’s fav child definitely him #There’s like half an episode that’s about him #everyone else got so many #Ink #half a back story unhinged mf beloved #Fidds ofc #Courtney too #cour has a very solid story and character growth #they’re just never the main focus #who else #loop?#it checks out #okay I’m done rambling ignore me trying to get it out of my system

I finally have a colored ref for Shadow Jones in TMNT? she quickly became one of my favorite allies as was drafting the plot early on and i am so excited to get past the prologue so I can start writing her proper. Its so hard to pick any singular mask for a vigilante who's whole goal is to figure it out as she goes, so various points of the comic she will be wearing different masks, all refs to other versions of Casey Jones (and one of splinters) masks I've liked from various iterations.

#Tmnt?#tmnt iteration #tmnt #teenage mutant ninja turtles #Shadow Jones #Shadow Jones tmnt #Gabrielle tmnt #she is in the photo at least so I'm tagging her #still chuggin away at all the refs for this comic #yipeeeee shadow is def one of my oc(ish) blorbos now lmao rotating her in my mind keeping her in a mentos tin in my pocket #she's using three main weapons mostly stolen of course and all intending to be non lethal #so she has the golf club bat and hockey stick but she mostly uses the golf club #she's never played hockey before what a horrible fact for a Jone's. dont worry about it she gets better soon #she picked the stick up out of a dumpster and figured it'd give her longer reach

wait, has anyone done eddie leaving hawkins after the events of season4, be it government pressure or just hightails it bc fuck hawkins, but like instead of going to the city(chicago or indianapolis) or out west to make it big, no he goes south, back to tennessee, he ends up making the right connections with producers and such and eventually makes it big as a musician/songwriter except the party never finds out because he's working under a pseudonym And in a totally different genre (im learning towards folk/bluegrass)

anyway this specific blorbo thought was brought to you by "who will sing for me" by the stanley brothers playing at work a lot recently

#and of course we have to have eventual steddie bc its my brain and i say so #and also im a sucker for steve reconnecting with eddie after being separated from the party #so like maybe a couple years down the line steve runs into a familiar man in the city that he maybe chases down bc theres no way #but it is eddie and they catch up and eddie confesses that he's been in the music bizz for afew years and steve asks how havent they notice #before? bc yeah the og party got into metal while in high school and maybe steve indulged dustins interest more after that spring bc part o #him was searching for eddie in the songs to get to know the man he gotten close to in a week then lost so suddenly #and maybe a small hopeful part of steve searched the metal scene bc he hoped that eddie had survived and been whisked away like hopper #so imagine his surprise to learn that not only was he right but also munson is now a country musician???#umm im sure this could be something but im not super into rockstar/fame aus so i dont plan on writing an actual fic #but this is definitely not inspired by having to listen to country/folk songs at work that spark blorbo thoughts #stranger things brainrot #steddie songs #<im tagging that bc i unforunately forsee myself posting more music based rambles #steddie ficlet #<in the tags at least

David Collings guests as Alan Campbell-Gore, a distubed young man, in Gideon's Way: The Prowler (1.18, ITC, 1966)

#fave spotting #david collings #gideon's way #the prowler #itc #1966 #sapphire and steel #ahem. hum. yes #the prowler is a problem episode in GW. moreso than the average ep (they're all at least a tiny bit problematic...)#its treatment of mental health crises is pretty awful‚ as is the prevailing attitude of the regular characters towards a clearly #vulnerable person. I'm not going to attempt to defend it here... I'll save that for the tags on the ep when i get to it (jk!)#actually this post is really for @thisbluespirit #altho you may not thank me.. lol #i know you've seen the ep of course and in fact i think you have gifsets and whatnots from it (despite the suffering that presumably caused #by making you revisit a pretty bad ep of a not amazing series just for a blorbo..). ah well #but i thought‚ well maybe some (slightly) more hi res pics would be nice? a little belated xmas treat...#mostly i came away from revisiting this ep in newfangled hd simply thinking 'my but what eyelashes young Davey had'

What do followers of the King Snake look like in terms of appearance and personality?

Followers as in the sorcerors of Team Zahhak? There's not a whole lot of detail on physical appearance from what I recall, at least as far as the disciples are concerned. You'd have to comb carefully through the novels for crumbs of info there but I wouldn't expect any specifics like hair or eye colour (though there were a few references to their eyes glowing — I wasn't sure how literal Tanaka intended this to be but it obviously informed the way Arakawa draws them in her manga... and come to think of it, their eyes also had a red or blue glow in the anime too).

Their personalities largely share the same negative traits. They tend to be sneaky (favouring what would be considered dishonorable methods of combat such as trickery, poison, sneaking up on others from behind, etc), generally negative/critical even of their own comrades (they're working together but they do not appear to be fond of each other and it feels more like a competitive relationship than true teamwork), spiteful, short-tempered, easily frustrated, cruel, etc. You get the idea.

I obviously paid more attention to Gurgin in particular as he's my favourite and easily the most interesting of Team Zahhak, and I do think you get to know him more in the novels. He's an ambitious smooth talker who enjoys feeling superior to his fellow disciples and is keen for his talents and efforts to be recognised by their Master. He's also the only disciple with backstory which you may have already read about, but I'll link to anyway. Like the others, he's willing to commit some truly awful acts to accompish Team Zahhak's aims, but every now and then there are glimpses of what little humanity he has left, though he does lose those traces progessively over the course of the story. I'll stop myself there before I write a whole essay on Gurgin, anyway.

Of the others, Gazdaham probably stands out a bit more than the others, partly because of his rivalry with Gurgin. He also loses an eye during the second half of the series, so there's a tidbit of physical description for you. Honestly, in a way he becomes quite a comical figure especially in his struggles to control Ilterish, and his fervour for Zahhak often verges on the ridiculous. He's a bit of a contrast to Gurgin, who even Ilterish takes more seriously. Ilterish mocking Gazdaham is fucking hilarious though.

Oh, it's worth mentioning that in the novels their cloaks are grey, though I've adopted the black they are shown with in the manga personally.

Hm, what else? In the novels, Pulad was the mage killed by Isfan during the night raid, and he was said to be inexperienced. Arakawa switched the mages around so in the manga it was Gurgin who died in that scene and I am still not over it.

I know this has been shared before, but here are Arakawa's designs for the disciples, with the translation of their names added by me (don't talk to me about the fact that Gurgin would almost certainly be 'Gurgan' if he had ever been referred to by name in the manga).

They don't wear masks in the novels, either.

Okay, now for the Unholy Master. In terms of appearance he's very beautiful (though it's apparently an artificial kind of beauty). Even Gieve acknowledges that he's handsome, lol. He has long blond hair and blue eyes. He's a bit of a mysterious figure and I won't go into the novel's eventual reveal of his origins here but I will say I hope we get to hear about it in the manga, too.

To speak of his personality, he appears content to use his disciples as tools, and while he is the one who teaches them magic the fact that Tanaka once stated he's careful not to teach them anything that would allow them to equal him speaks volumes about the kind of person he is. He is clearly drawn to power (the same is likely true of all the disciples though it's very evident with Gurgin, whose interest in Zahhak's power even goes back to when he was a trainee priest). He usually seems composed but he's not immune to feelings of bloodlust (this is probably common in members of Team Zahhak; again it's something we see with Gurgin) and he can be provoked to anger by Gieve of course ahaha. That he is manipulative goes without saying.

I guess this probably covers the question to the best of my knowledge, unless you're interested in figures like Ilterish or others who have been given Zahhak's blood, or the body that hosts Zahhak (even if you hide the shoulder snakes I think the person looks a bit... off. I would have to check specifics but as far as I can recall they were described as having purplish lips and reddish eyes; see this Shinobu Tanno illustration from Book 16).

Mild pet peeve:

Why do animal ears look weird just stuck on humanoid character heads, to the point sometimes they get human ears anyway by accident? Because animal ears aren’t actually stuck to animals’ foreheads, ya walnut!

They’re still on the SIDE of the head then “wrap around” upward! They are HUGE because they’re cone shaped (yes! even your floppy eared doggo! they’re coned under the floppy! They just have less cartilage!) or pod shaped (like a horse or rabbit) or circular (like a bear).

Start the base of the ears on the side of the head slightly above where the mandibles meet then work “outward” from there please I am begging.

Oh, and go scritch a cute kitty’s or doggo’s ears.

#tiger’s roar #animal ears #catgirls #catboys #idk what else to tag it. you get the idea tho #but yeah. it’s always a Have You Never Animal?!#of course your random cat or dog person not anthro/furry blorbo isn’t looking right #you put the ears in the wrong spot entirely!!#On The Forehead Ears is only cute for those silly animal ear headbands #not…actual character design for actual ears #this post brought to you by my morning coffee and an irritating picrew!
