If you'll pardon me for asking, regarding your Darkstalkers AU, why make Felicia a wrestler instead of a pop star? Is there any special reason why, or was it just for fun?

Oh no worries, I am happy to answer. 😄 In Cryas Darkstalkers, Felicia is fully intended to be Mexican: both her biological parents being of Mexican descent, but importantly her adopted mother, Ramona Rose, is a Mexican living in America. Thus, Felicia grew up with such a culture. As she grew up, she was an avid fan of the luchador, El Santo.

Collecting comics when she could afford to buy them with allowance and watching any film she could of him. He was basically her idol and hero, as he was for basically the country of Mexico. Dude was crazy famous. Through him, she gained a love for acting and the sport of lucha libre.

(Art by Mastermaindd) While she hoped to maybe one day meet the legendary luchador, he would pass away before she could reach adulthood. Into adulthood, she is primarily an actress. Not only for her passion to entertain, but as a way to eventually catch the hearts of all to show how the unity of humans and non-humans was possible considering the loving mother she has and the people of Taos, New Mexico that grew to accept her. However, her love for lucha libre still burned fiercely in her. Once she built the foundation of her career as an actress, she would also pursue her passion of lucha libre on the side for fun. That would catch the eyes of people in Mexico in time. As a luchadora, she goes by the name of La Santa, in honor of El Santo.

(Art by Alm) In the end, just wanted to give some further depth to my interpretation of her. Considering I myself am Mexican American, wanted to do a bit more for her other than just saying she is Mexican in my mythos. So, the luchador angle was a fun one to give to her. Plus, like wrestlers, they entertain. And actors/actresses entertain, so why not have El Santo, one of the most famous individuals in Mexican history, be the reason she was inspired to go down the path she went. I hope this answers your question. 🫡 Have this bonus art advertising a charity match between La Santa and a fellow luchdor from the motherland:

Daniel de Pablo Maroto, ocd Convento de La Santa-Ávila Los que visitan la mal llamada “Capilla del nacimiento” en la iglesia de “La Santa” en Ávila, encontrarán en el altar su imagen en la hornacina con una corona que adorna su cabeza.

Кафедральный собор Малаги (Базилика Святой Иглесии Катедраль-де-ла-Энкарнасьон ) — главная и самая большая церковь города. Расположен Кафедральный собор на площади Пласа-дель-Обиспо,  Испания. Его строительство началось в 1525 году и закончилось в 1782 году, построен он на месте мечети альжама. Долгое время Малагский собор считался вторым по высоте зданием Малаги, а по высоте сводов он уступает лишь собору Пальмы, расположенному на Майорке.

Малагский собор — архитектурный памятник эпохи Возрождения, но проект несколько раз менялся. Основной архитектурный проект был разработан Диего ди Силоэ и Андрес де Вандельвира. Собор строился на протяжении трех веков, поэтому архитектура собора представляет собой смешение разных стилей. Доминирует стиль эпохи Возрождения, но в нем присутствуют элементы готики, барокко и неоклассицизма. Три арки главного портала отделаны мрамором разных цветов. Над каждой дверью размещены изображения главных святых Малаги. Главный фасад собора выполнен в стиле барокко и имеет три арочных портала, над ними ра��положены барельефы святых покровителей Малаги и сцена Благовещения. По бокам фасада расположено две башни — северная, имеющая высоту 84 метра, и недостроенная южная из-за которой собор в народе называют «Манкита» (Одноручка). Три нефа имеют одинаковую высоту, но средний неф шире остальных, чтобы обеспечить устойчивость конструкции, учитывая их большую высоту, архитектор использовал интересную систему: крестообразные колонны соединены с коринфскими колоннами. Сводчатый потолок имеет многочисленные украшения. В интерьере чувствуется влияние ренессанса и барокко. Многие элементы убранства церкви выполнены из красного дерева и кедра в 17 веке Луисом Ортисом. Украшение партера для хора было сделано Педро де Мена, также его работа — 40 статуй, которые находятся в храме. Две кафедры церкви изготовлены из мрамора Кабра и украшены религиозными мотивами.

Внутри Кафедрального собора хранятся многочисленные произведения искусства религиозной тематики. В боковых часовнях можно увидеть: Плачущая мать: работы Педро де Мена, одного из выдающихся скульпторов эпохи барокко. Большая Дева Розария: кисти Алонсо Кано, знаменитого испанского художника и архитектора. Христос на кресте: Алонсо де Мена, являющийся образцом испанской религиозной скульптуры XVII века.

Внутри собора также находится капелла Святого Причастия, украшенная роскошной позолотой и мрамором. Главный алтарь кафедрального собора был создан архитектором Хосе Мартинесом в стиле ренессанс и декорирован резьбой по дереву. Соборный музей представляет коллекцию религиозного искусства, включая редкие манускрипты, литургические предметы и древние скульптуры.

The Malaga Cathedral (Basilica of Santa Iglesia Catedral de la Encarnación) is the main and largest church in the city. The Cathedral is located on the Plaza del Obispo, Spain. Its construction began in 1525 and ended in 1782, it was built on the site of the Aljama mosque. For a long time, the Malaga Cathedral was considered the second tallest building in Malaga, and in terms of the height of its vaults, it is second only to the Palma Cathedral, located in Mallorca.

The Malaga Cathedral is an architectural monument of the Renaissance, but the project has changed several times. The main architectural project was developed by Diego di Siloe and Andres de Vandelvira. The cathedral was built over three centuries, so the architecture of the cathedral is a mixture of different styles. The Renaissance style dominates, but it also contains elements of Gothic, Baroque and Neoclassicism. The three arches of the main portal are decorated with marble of different colors. Above each door are images of the main saints of Malaga. The main façade of the cathedral is made in the Baroque style and has three arched portals, above them are bas-reliefs of the patron saints of Malaga and the scene of the Annunciation. On the sides of the façade are two towers - the northern one, which is 84 meters high, and the unfinished southern one, because of which the cathedral is popularly called "Manquita" (One-handed). The three naves are of the same height, but the middle nave is wider than the others, to ensure the stability of the structure, given their great height, the architect used an interesting system: cross-shaped columns are connected with Corinthian columns. The vaulted ceiling has numerous decorations. The influence of the Renaissance and Baroque is felt in the interior. Many elements of the church decoration were made of mahogany and cedar in the 17th century by Luis Ortiz. The decoration of the parterre for the choir was made by Pedro de Mena, and his work also includes 40 statues that are in the temple. The two pulpits of the church are made of Cabra marble and decorated with religious motifs.

The interior of the Cathedral contains numerous works of art with religious themes. In the side chapels you can see: The Weeping Mother: by Pedro de Mena, one of the most important sculptors of the Baroque era. The Great Virgin of the Rosary: ​​by Alonso Cano, a famous Spanish artist and architect. Christ on the Cross: by Alonso de Mena, an example of Spanish religious sculpture of the 17th century.

The interior also contains the Chapel of the Blessed Sacrament, decorated with sumptuous gilding and marble. The main altar of the Cathedral was created by the architect José Martínez in the Renaissance style and decorated with wood carvings. The Cathedral Museum presents a collection of religious art, including rare manuscripts, liturgical objects and ancient sculptures.
