I made a pixel sprite of my oc, Rexford!

I’ve always admired pixel artists and always wanted to draw pixel art, but whenever I would try it would never look how I wanted. But I’ve recently been thinking about making an RPG maker game and decided to give it a shot - mainly inspired by the pixel art from Stardew Valley, Pokemon Gen 4 and 5, and a little bit of Final Fantasy. I know I’m probably breaking some pixel art rules but I’m honestly really happy with how he looks.

I used procreate and Ittai Manero’s pixel brush for beginners.

Warnings: graphic language, depictions of violence, magic.

Word count: 1.1k

The wind blew through the whispering woods, sending leaves spiraling all about. The woods were finally entering full spring, delighting everyone who was lucky enough to walk amongst the flowering trees. Pink and white blooms dotted as far as the eye could see, complimented only by the bright yellow of the Goldshade flowering along the ground. The birds chirped and the sun filtered down through the trees, showcasing the mid-afternoon sun. An owl hooted and somewhere off in the distance a faint rustling could be heard.

The whispering woods are home to a great many people and animals alike, though not many people bother to intrude upon the woods these days. No, mostly the woods go by unnoticed. Which is not to say that the woods don't prefer it this way, they have their own ideas about it all. Today however, the atmosphere inside the whispering woods was a bit off. It was a bit frantic, almost as if an unknown fight was taking place somewhere. No matter, what do trees know of battle beyond survival?

The sun slowly began to sink beyond the horizon and everything took on a most splendid shade of gold. As the sun started its glorious sendoff, the tension within the woods reached its combustion level. Out of the trees burst a young woman. Stumbling, shouting and brandishing a large dagger she vaulted over the roots of the woods. Her target was no where in sight and her clanking mismatched armor hardly made for a stealthy warrior. Long braids whipped behind her and a series of scars crisscrossed her body.

"Jon! I swear, I'll give you a chance. Just stop with the running! Always with the running."

No response seemed to pour forth from within the trees. The woman shook her head in exasperation, looked towards the setting sun and then was off again crashing through the trees.

Jana had grown exceedingly tired of chasing Jon through the forsaken Whispering Woods every week. It was insulting to insinuate that catching Jon was any accomplishment and worse a great pain to her body, mind and spirit. Jana was finished with her training, having spent over a decade learning the blade. Someone eligible to join the Knights of Valar shouldn't be chasing Jon in the Whispering Woods, that seemed to be the essential point in her mind.

While now meandering through the woods Jana contemplated why she had rejected doing just that. The Knights of Valar had sent her an invitation to a gala which she had attended. The entire night was grand and wonderous, full of magic. Everyone had been welcoming and courteous, but Jana had felt an unseen shadow of her back. Something had felt so inexplicably wrong, so cursed. The glittering lights in the giant domed ceilings had made her feel sick, and it seemed too many people wanted a word with her.

The Knights often hosted parties of this caliber, getting an invite was a considered a prestigious honor in most circles. Jana disagreed with the principle, the entire point of studying, training and understanding the blade was to protect the realm. Jana understood not every fight was literal, but the Knights seemed to exacerbate problems by throwing parties and engaging in the drama. She wasn't so self-righteous as to proclaim herself above drama, exhibit a would show her mission in the woods right now was nothing but drama. She was trying to better the realm, Jon just made it difficult for punishments to stick.

Jon was a slimy sleaze who enjoyed ripping off anyone and everyone. He was quite adept at it too, managing to find new magical disguises at every turn. Jana would pay whatever wizard contact Jon had twice as much, if the guy would cut Jon off. Just to save her a little bit of trouble, she knew it wouldn't keep his spirits down. But maybe she could lower them for a little bit.

Jana now considered it a personal vendetta of hers to see justice enacted upon Jon. It didn't necessarily have to be doled out by the realm either. She would settle for a good beat down and tying him to nearest tree. Even the most efficient knot wouldn't stop him but Jana would enjoy watching him squirm while she ransacked his goods. Sighing, she pushed her thoughts away to listen closely once again.

The wind still blew softly through the trees, the rustling a comforting sound. Jana listened closely for any twig snaps or a crunch of leaves underfoot. She stood still, crouched and silent. The sound would be undetectable to anyone else but Jana had years of experience dealing with this man in particular. She waited poised to jump until the faint whistling ended. Dagger in hand, she pounced.

Barreling through the bushes and landing squarely on top of the subject, Jana held the dagger flush against his throat.

"Will you ever learn?"

Jana looked down on him triumphantly, how many times had she caught him now? A dozen, maybe even two? Though this time Jon did not appear to have any last minute tricks up his sleeve which made her immediately suspicious. A quick quip and a nasty trick were about all Jon was good for.

Reaching for the enchanted rope she questioned him.

"What nothing new to test out this time? Have they run out of terrible escape inventions finally?"

Jon smirks, his black hair which is near matted is hanging in his eyes.

"Ah sweet lily, when will you ever learn?"

Before she can become overly aggravated concerning that annoying endearment, they grow progressively worse and worse these days, the trap she was expecting springs.

"It isn't a purchased contraption this time sweet knight."

Jon begins aggressively fighting against her and the bonds she's managed to halfway secure. So distracted is she by the fighting and the many creative insults hurling their way out of Jon's mouth that she misses the glowing tomes that seem to rise up all around them.

"Great magnet of unwashed tin! You look like the railway car that's been at the bottom of Chery's river for a decade! Knight of unpolished aluminum foil!"

Jana grew weary of his voice as she struggled to contain him with the rope.

"Just shut it! I'm sick - "

"Haven't you a blacksmith? I mean this just pathetic."

The bickering grew to an astronomical level and she was ashamed to admit it took her a solid five minutes to notice the ominous glowing around them. Abandoning the rope altogether and sitting up, she gazed as the glowing tomes. Her eyes were wide with fright.

Henryk the Sturgeon Knight Character I made a while ago that started story about fish knight I'm working on (temporarily called "Ashore Project" till I figure out a better name). Will probably do some smalled tweaks to his armor at some point, but I love him very much.

I don’t know how much longer i can stay here. I try to follow the scent of the forest to find my way out. But the evergreen breeze is stifled down here. It is dark and damp. I only wish to see the sky again. I don’t know how much longer I can stay here.

Rexford Pyrenees! He’s one of my oldest ocs and I decided to treat him by giving an updated reference sheet!

He’s a fighter who has a focus on defense and producing his party members. He’s also part Dragon, with his father being a fairly massive criminal. Rexford shares the same birthmark on his ear as his father.

Yandere Short Stories:

Knight in Shining Armor

Yandere Monster Knight x Princess Reader

TW: delusional Yandere, Yandere behavior, kidnapping (mentioned), etc.

Ajax had always been princess (your name)’s confidant and source of solace… so why did he have her cornered on the bed of the inn? His large, muscular frame towered over her as his body trembled.

“I can’t do it… I can’t let you marry some other man.” Ajax whispered, his metal mask hiding his expression. There was no doubt in (your name)’s mind that he was shaken up about something. She had no clue why he’d be so upset about her getting married…

“Ajax, it was bound to happen eventually. It’s my duty as the kingdom’s princess-“ (your name) gasped when he closed the distance between them. Ajax’s large palms pulled her into a tight hug. The force of the hug caused them both to land on the small bed with a soft plop.

“Ajax-“ Ajax placed a finger on (your name)’s lips to pause her words.

“I won’t allow it… I won’t allow some other man to sully you.” Ajax’s deep voice made her body anxiously shake. “Not when I’ve wanted you for so many years…”

“Ajax-“ (your name)’s eyes widened when he finally removed the mask that’s concealed his face for over a decade. Ajax was half orc? (Your name) hadn’t a clue and she had been with him for so many years…

“I’m half monster, I thought you knew.” Ajax chuckled as his crimson eyes flitted over (Your name)’s frozen form. She was now a helpless lamb trapped in the maw of the wolf. “It’s why the other knights have been so cruel to me… why the maids avoid me like the plague and your father wanted to send me to war.”

(Your name)’s eyes can only take on his scarred and burned face in shock. Why was half the skin on his mouth missing and his tusks filed down? Who had hurt him so much that he didn’t confide in her, his best friend? What atrocities had he faced while she remained none the wiser?

(Your name) were shocked when he bent down to show you his teeth. His tusks were clumsily filed down to almost look like teeth but they were still rather sharp. “I did the tusk work, but they grow back rather quickly. The skin on my face is still healing from when there was an assassination attempt on you from your future husband’s concubines. Bastard was going to pour acid on your face.”

(Your name) reached up to trace the scars on his face while Ajax gave her a soft smile. “Ajax…”

“You’re the only one who’s never treated me like a monster… you’re so wonderful and kind.” Ajax moved his large, gloved hands to hold her hands. “That old king doesn’t deserve you. No one does!”

(Your name) blushed when Ajax brought her hands up to his lips to press tender kisses over each of her knuckles. Despite how badly Ajax wished to ravish her, he must keep his composure.

“You took this amount of damage for me?” (Your name)’s voice was barely above a whisper, yet it made Ajax melt into a puddle.

“Of course I did. I will do anything for you.” Ajax moved himself to crouch on the corner of the bed, his head in a slight bow. Yet (your name) could feel the burning obsessed behind his crimson gaze. “I am in love with you. Madly, deeply, entirely devoted to you and only you.”

Ajax grasped (your name)’s bare foot and brought it up to his mouth to press tender kisses across the top of it. “I will love you until my skin rots off my body and I am nothing but bones. Yet even death could not separate me from you for I will be in every corner of your life like a permanent shadow of protection. I will protect you with my entire being and soul. I will haunt and dismember your enemies if you so much as give them a glance of distaste.”

(Your name) felt her blood run cold when Jax gave her a bright grin that reopened a few of the stitches across his cheeks. The blood dripped down his face and onto her foot, but he merely lapped it up with his longer tongue. “Now tell me… is what I feel not love? I may not be a handsome prince but I swear I’m your knight in shining armor.”
