Outfit breakdowns for all of my Kirby hero of yore ocs! I don’t know if I can count Galacta (or Papi) as ocs but my interpretations are rather far from the source material at this point ^^;
First is Galacta, the Hero of Heart, who is the hero among heroes of the four of them. The most honored, the most gallant, the light and hope of Halcandra.
Second is Nebula, the Hero of Dream, who is a laid-back, mostly relaxed figure who is calm and kind. Though they can often be found napping in various locations around town, in battle, they are a fierce warrior, and are very protective of Galacta.
Third is Papilio, the Hero of Soul, also known to many as Lio, or by their personal name, Anax. They are the smallest and the youngest of the heroes, a prodigy with the blade, and known as the fastest and most light-footed of the heroes.
And finally, the Hero of Dark, whose true name is only known to their friends. They are the quietest of the heroes, and wield a spear, though most of their powers are long range magic.
#kirby gijinka#kirby oc#heroes of yore#I have been having So much trouble naming them. my god#nebula was the easiest name because I wanted them to act as a foil to galacta but also a close friend who grew up in similar circumstances#their names are quite similar because of this: they both have three syllables and end with an a#but put emphasis on different syllables: gaLACta and NEBula#then papi is based on of course papi from the light novels#I wasn’t sure if I wanted to rename them but I definitely wanted their name to be a bit longer and have more gravitas#hence the genus papilio which also matches the naming pattern for morpho#the other name anax is based on a specific species of morpho butterflies (or subgenus? I forget) called anaxibia#the hero of dark is still a bit up in the air but I think their name is Koilos#based on the Greek word for hollow and also based on the deer genus odocoileus
