Dr. Amanda Hollins (Kim Hunter), a molecular scientist, calls on her son John (David Allen Brooks) to destroy all evidence of her genetic experiments... most specifically her “Anthony Journals.” Dr. Philip Lloyd (Rod Steiger), an acquaintance of Hollins and someone familiar with her experiments, wants to continue her studies no matter the cost! John heads to his isolated childhood home with a group of friends to uncover his mother’s research and destroy it all, as she’d asked. There’s something else in the house, however... something watching and waiting... a tentacled creature born from the desire to alter human evolution. It’s evil. It’s mad. It’s ready to kill!

Fund The Dark Art Tarot Project on Kickstarter! #darkart #tarot #kickstarter

I’m super stoked to be a contributor to a collective, international dark art tarot deck featuring artwork from some of the most incredible artists alive! 78 artists including Paolo Girardi, Mark Cooper, Jim Pavelec and many more will be contributing artwork to create a complete deck (including both the major and minor arcana).

Since most of us are starving artists, this deck will only be funded…

ARTIST INSPIRATION

At the start of this project, I thought it was be interesting to look at more macabre art and artists. I’ve never used dark art/artists as inspiration before and I felt like, with my chosen topic and the vibe I want to create with my final, it would benefit me well. I had three 'horror' artists that I knew about and wanted to look at more: Keith Thompson, Alexandros Pyromallis and Rovina Cai. I decided to look more at Alexandros Pyromallis after seeing his work on his instagram (inkrituals)

*EDIT* I love how creepy his pieces are. He uses a lot of pop culture (mostly horror films/comics and artwork for metal band too) which is something that's influenced me for this topic. I love the contrast in his images, most of them are predominantly black with pops of white and occasionally red. These are a few of my favourites.

Alexandros Pyromallis

Pyromallis explains that he is "influenced by the plague of culture, horror films/comics, the metal of death, monsters, the hidden paths of the mind, human stupidity and fear."

He practices what he calls "analogue illustration" – traditional techniques using ink, brushes and paper.

[W101] Dragonspyre Thaumaturges

I promised @kataba-artblock that I would tell him more about Lionheart by expanding his backstory. And I know that @appuru-pi and I spoke about it before, but it would be nice to share through a post, like I’ve done previously with Garrett’s story!~ <3

During the earliest times of Dragonspyre, back when it used to be a triumphant land permeated with currents of lava and the husked breaths of imposing drakes, there lived two adult Pyromancers. They originally came from Mooshu, but they decided to settle down in neighboring Dragonspyre, due to a terrible disease speading through Emperor Yoshihito’s land of purity by the elephant demons and their minions.

Around the same time when Malistaire joined with Sylvia in marriage, the two Pyromancers had a son - one which was named after Dragonspyrean customs and traditions; Alexander. (Although they called him Alexandros and/or Aleksandr) He was one who happened to possess the magic element that’s naturally and actively opposing Pyromancy: Thaumaturgy.

For wizards of Fire to have an offspring that’s the opposite element is a case that’s awfully rare within the Spiral - it is said that once or even twice in one hundred years, it would happen for two Pyromancers to have a Thaumaturge child. Alexander was not an only child, for he would be gifted with three more siblings - each named after how their mother first percieved their features or personalities as infants. The second son and the second eldest was named Angel. The Pyromancer mother chose this name because she percieved the infant Thaumaturge’s smiles to be akin to that of an angel.

Alexander proved to be a caring older brother while he was still young - Angel sought him as an example of a brother he could learn a lot from. As the two Ice children continued to bond and get to know each other better, they would soon sat hello to their third brother, Karic. For a Thaumaturge, Karic certainly had the energy of a Storm child, he would always try to tackle his brothers to have them play with him any games that were part of any little wizard's childhood; such as tag or hide and go seek. Unlike his older brothers, who were already getting used to their power over Ice magic, Karic wished he could be like his parents, a Pyromancer - he regularly dressed in red, and politely asked his mother to teach him fire spells.

“No, I’m sorry, sweetie. You were born to yield the power of the Ice, exactly like your brothers. Once you’re a big boy, one day you’ll get to the fire spells that I could teach you as your secondary magic element.”

“Yes, momma.”

The fourth brother to Alexander, Angel and Karic was Ethan. He stood mostly by his eldest brother’s side - clinging onto him. He would always try to hug his brothers, he was quite the attention seeker, as their father would confess amused. It was his way to tell them how much he loves his siblings, as he is the youngest.

As the four Thaumaturge boys continued to grow in strength and power, the glorious days of Dragonspyre came to an end. Alexander was the only one to fully witness the violent, slow-paced destruction of the world’s major districts and lanes.

He was still too juvenile to fully fathom this tragic turn of event; the Dragon Titan, the ancestor of all Pyromancers - had awakened with a loathsome hunger for conquering the volcanic realm of Dragonspyre that it once reigned over.

The tears of horror and the wails of despair which permanently tainted his brother’s figures simply had their eldest brother’s heart split in half - the ordeal of wizards being sacrificed in order for a tyrannical drake to reclaim its territory only brought the fright of death upon Dragonspyrean warriors as well as settlers from other parts of the Spiral - such as Alexander’s parents.

As a result of the Dragon Titan’s wrath against the people of Dragonspyre, many of the residences of the mercenaries or ordinary wizards were severely ravaged, leaving them with no place to stay. Alexander, his brothers and their parents were lucky, for their homstead sustained minor damage. A week after the drake’s rampage, grave words had spread amongst the now heedful locals: “Sylvia Drake, wife of the highly-acclaimed Necromaster Malistaire Drake passes away in the thick of the Dragon Titan’s charge.”

Neither Alexander nor his brothers understood at their age that time how devastating the death of Sylvia was for most of Dragonspyre - she was the Captain of the Dragonspyrean Army, ready to serve attentively. Fellow mercenaries and wizards respected her for the high rank she held.

The four children of ice would be awfully oblivious of the fact that they would eventually have to confront Malistaire himself - a broken man who wished to bring his wife back to life by awakening the Dragon Titan from its slumber.

Around his teenage years, Alexander had gone through a swingeing change in his personality - he was incredibly irascible, and horribly impatient. He also grew to loathe his given name, believing it wasn’t as ‘regal’ as his parents originally thought it sounded - so he dubbed himself ‘Lionheart’; therefore he hard-heartedly told his brethren to only refer to him by that name, and not ‘Alexander’ anymore.

His brothers did not take his militant behaviour too well - fearful of Lionheart’s agressive words, they ran away from Dragonspyre, and hid away in Wintertusk, where they would vow to never see their “so-called brother” no more, unless he would have a change of heart and reconcile with his grief-stricken siblings.

“Y-You!”

“Why are you here...?”

“Angel, don’t! Stay away from him!”

Lionheart’s genuine reaction to the trepidation in his brothers’ eyes and voices, and the way they would embrace each other tightly, and sniffle in shock - they may not see through his rough exterior, but Lionheart felt emotionally ruined, but he didn’t express it openly, as he believed it to be nothing but a weakness. Raw emotion was meaningless to him. Once he left his brothers’ hideout, his mind would fall into conflicting thoughts, that would only fuel his bitterness.

“...They still think I’m a monster...”

Yet the painful distance between the four brothers didn’t last an eternity.

When faced with the challenge of dethroning the Shadow Queen, and to tear apart the Song of Creation, Lionheart would’ve never thought to hear the voices of his second and fourth brothers; Angel and Ethan, now proud 18 year old and 17 year old Thamaturges. They both confessed to their eldest brother that it was a mistake of them to run away, and to judge Lionheart’s behaviour so harshly, and that it was all but a misunderstanding between brothers that were different in personality. They eventually make up by welcoming him as “Big brother Lionheart”, a name he was only called by in his childhood.
