#VERAN

Going to an away game with Coach Skar

Wind off-hand mentions how Ganondorf kidnapped Tetra and then he had to fight a puppet to get her back, and Twilight has the worst flashback of his hero career to fighting his possessed Princess. Then Wind asks how he dealt with the spider form and Twilight blanks out.

Across the camp Legend casually calls out “I stabbed her in the face.”

Uh oh, it’s happening

Well Vaati ain’t the villain no more on this au so who else could be? How about Veran except she’s very different from how she is from oas!

Veran here is a corrupted great fairy who wants to take over Hyrule, possibly as revenge idk. After Tetra was kidnapped as a baby, she decided that she could strengthen her weak divine power to use against Hyrule, so she raised her as her daughter. Except it’s kind of a mother gothel and rapunzel situation. Bad vibes all around

IT'S HERE! As we celebrate everything spooky and scary, we here are celebrating our Legend of Zelda antagonists once again! This time we decided to take a look at what it would mean if our Villains weren't quite villains but took on a different perspective or role.

Enjoy from 15 artists and one dedicated writer!

Thank you for everyone that has been a part of this. I can't wait to work on the next one. May everyone have a Happy Halloween and cozy fall season!

Veran [Flame Lit]

sometimes i do a name search to see if my stuff has been reposted anywhere (which you're always free to do with credit btw, im too tired to do any posting beyond tumblr) and I learned there's a veran-specific booru called the black tower that is one of the few places that has done that, might as well give them some more art as thanks

My piece for the recent @facesofevilzine, featuring Great Fairy Veran and the little spirits of seasons!

You should absolutely check out the full zine tho, it is free and has some banger artworks in it!

With the release of Echoes of Wisdom, I wanna take this moment to bring to everyone's attention the fact that the Zelda series, in it's nigh 30 year history, has a grand total of only 5 villainesses:

- Veran from the "Oracle" series.

- Twinrova, who never got her own game because OoS never got made.

- Lady Maud from Tri-Force Heroes.

- Hilda (who was an antagonist, but not really a Villainess)

- Cia from the first Hyrule Warriors (which Nintendo will INSIST isn't canon even if we know better)

So yeah. 5 Villainesses in almost 30 years, two of which don't count and one of which was a joke... (I COULD count Aveil, but she's usually a minor antagonist, not a full villain)

Now that I think about it, I can't think of a videogame franchise from Japan other than Final Fantasy and Fire Emblem with more than 5 villainesses... (Outside of fighting games, and even then!)

All this to say, I hope EoW gives us a bait-and-Switch and gives us another evil lady instead of just Ganon again!

Just another day in detention

I did the poll about this on my main blog forever ago. But this is my take on a redesign of Veran. Overall I do like her original design a lot, aside from the strange hood she wears.

[facesofevilzine]

Welcome one of our zine artists, @goopi-e! Here's a sneak peek at what they've created for Volume 8: Reverse Villains.

Oh my! What beauty is she!

Make sure to check out the zine to see the completed piece.

V needed an updated ref! He's a kirin / dragon hybrid, and I've decided to add some small changes to his designs to reflect that better.

Veran: A maverine person, much like using enban to refer to a nonbinary person. The plural is veren.

Kept forgetting to post this; my submission for the Faces of Evil zine, small enemies edition.

For my piece I wanted to interpret several regular villains as Minish!
