WAIT YOU HAVE LAB KIDS ;__; TELL ME EVERYTHING

OK OK SO. tysm for the ask and sorry for taking so long to answer this oopsies I got distracted badly. (redesigned a few of the labkids and then wanted to redesign the rest of them and then forgor) also this is gonna be a bit messy on account of it is 2 am woopsies. and also uhhh warning for lotsa body horror type stuff and fucked up science things and also most of it is kind of a metaphor for how the education system fails some kids?

ok so. the Hopkins Demonology Lab is trying to create artificial demons. for... reasons. what demons are, though, is pretty fuckin' weird - they're basically like. things that look like some kind of animal or other on the outside just with red eyes, but have the ability to 'evert' or turn themselves inside out and basically go bodyhorror gore monster mode. this is generally a big risk to the whole "bodily integrity and not dying" thing, so demons are generally regarded as pests because they tend to cause problems and then die about it. the bigger ones can cause more problems and are worse at dying, but in general they're just an inconvenience. the lab is trying to change that. specifically, it's trying to create human demons. although, creating them isn't the hard part- creating ones that don't die is the hard part. because the lab demonkids are humans, they're better at putting their bodies back together, but because they're artificially created, things have a tendency to go wrong anyway...

ok and here are some of the characters:

first the ones I don't got (regular) art of (I have some art of them but it's either gore, body horror, or outdated, and I'll put it under a readmore at the bottom of the post)

Oliver Izolde: formerly a regular human, who volunteered to get experimented on for... some reason. probably so he could pay his rent. he's one of the most successful experiments there. and also a huge bully to a lot of the less successful ones, especially Emery.

August Watkins: another one in Oliver's group. possibly an orphan who joined the experiments because it was better than his current life. they regret this very much now! this is because he learned something that Dr. Hopkins didn't want anyone finding out, and she made sure they're incapable of telling anyone. and then decided to do more experiments on them since it was too much of a risk to keep letting them leave the facility. he's basically incapable of using his demon powers because he is very squeamish and faints instantly on the sight of his own internals.

Miles Landon: not an experiment, she's a lab assistant... but they relate more to the experiments than to their bosses. on account of their bosses are, not the nicest exactly.

ok and now ones I do have art of!

Nashville Hopkins: no one's entirely sure what this guy's deal is. he's in his own experimental group separate from both the former-regular-human ones and the fully artificial ones. some of the other experiments (and Miles) wonder if Nash might be Dr. Hopkins' son, but she maintains plausible deniability about that since he doesn't look like her aside from their hair color, and he needed a last name in order to have an official identity and stuff. and that's because he's actually allowed to be out and about, since his powers are fully under control. (that's because he wears a sort of power restricting collar. he'd sort of explode without it so he don't mind.) he often runs errands for the lab, does Dr. Hopkins' grocery shopping, etc.

Enzo: one of the artificial demon kids. he's like 8 when stuff starts going wrong... he starts struggling to complete his exercises, moving less, etc. the 'doctors' at the lab (they do not have medical degrees) brush this off as him just being lazy, but actually his body is destabilizing. while that's all going down, he's besties with Elodie so they get put in the same containment area together.

Elodie: another artificial demonkid, also about 8. like Enzo, she's starting to destabilize. she's also one of the more relatively successful experiments, and gets pushed to try to strengthen her powers more. this is painful for her and she's stressed all the time, which gets brushed off as her just being angry/defiant.

Emery: one of the more... sort of successful artificial ones. they're 19 and haven't destabilized yet, but they also can't fully evert, only partially (and they have a tendency to make eyes where they really shouldn't, unintentionally.) they're one of Dr. Hopkins' favorites, but are kind of not a fan of this because she thinks they're just too stupid to distrust her like most of the others do. (they're autistic and she's terrible.) they help with the younger experiment kids, basically helping them do their exercises, making sure they eat, helping Miles secretly teach them how to read, etc. they're also 6'4 and built like a brick shithouse so the Doc likes to have them around to... help intimidate auditors or whoever else comes around to pry into her business. not that she needs the help!

after Enzo and Elodie both completely destabilize on the same day, causing serious damage to the facility, Emery loses the last remnants of their trust in the 'doctors', and pretty soon after that they escape the place with Miles' help. (Miles also lies to their bosses and says she don't know what happened.)

they're the true protagonist of RETW! they're a member of Gavin's party, and like him they're a "hero" which means basically wandering do-gooder... they help people out, fix things, etc. in comparison to Gavin who's uh. a demonslayer. things don't go too great there but not in the way you'd think. here's them post-escape. they got a sword almost the size of their self

oh and then some time later this kid joins the party... they're like 10 ish, they have Problems, Emery recognizes them, and they keep changing what they say their name is... sometimes Elodie and sometimes Enzo.

ok and now here's the more gorey arts! warning for body horror of various sorts, eye horror?, mouth gore, and a little bit of boob

August and Dr. Hopkins

Emery (cursed pre untwinkification design) and Oliver

Emery (cursed twink version again) and Dr. Harwell (I didn't mention her in this post oopsies. she's Dr. Hopkins' subordinate, and seemingly meaner than her boss but the bar is a lot higher than she realizes. they sorta have a good cop bad cop dynamic sometimes. also doc harwell has a crush on doc hopkins because I love evil woman yuri. and divorce. doc hopkins is extremely divorced. the divorce is plot relevant. im going on a tangent)

[3starsintime]

I have question! Is the Emery a character that existed in anything before 3SAT and if so, what was his deal pre 3SAT?

Also super excited to see where this goes!

I am so glad u asked!! :D Emery was recently made, however. He was made for a different story (Which is why this comic is called a crossover more than just a fan comic) But I shall give you the story of Emery a little bit and his life before the comic!!

Emery has some stuff similar to siffrin. He woke up in a place he wasn't familiar with and has no memories whatsoever about who he was and where he is from

(Old Image I made) As he woke up he met someone though. He met someone named Mercy! She helped him through his situation and they become good friends!

Mercy is a cosplayer who loves sewing! So she was actually the one who made Emery's outfit!

However, As Emery doesn't know his own past, He somehow can see other people's pasts and learn from them. He has no idea where these powers came from. But he has used them a little to get in better terms with people. He even write some of these into a book he has with him wherever he goes.

However... There is 1 chase where he can't see into their past...

He has no idea who this guy is. But he has a feeling he knows something about him that others don't...but he is scared to ask.

So basically! Emery is a side character in a story I am writing!! How he got to ISAT world is gonna be explored in the comic! But this is basically the basic!! c:

Tag: Character Inspiration

This is the last tag on my to do list. I'll have to recheck the notes but I think this about wraps it up thus far. It’s also the one I took the longest to complete…

Thank you so much @axl-ul for the tag. You can find their wonderful post here!

Gently Tagging: @rmgrey-author, @kaatiba, @girlfromthecrypt, @hyba, @coffeewritesfiction and an open tag for anyone else who would like to participate!

Rules: Pick a character(s) from your wip(s) and tell who they were inspired by or from.

Ok! So I had to go digging through some old files for this tag. All of the main characters in the Festival project started out as voices for news articles to develop the world of Hollow Grove. All of them and the world itself have changed a lot since their initial conception in late 2016. One day I may share those early character sketches.

But now to the tag proper!

Mariela: Visually, I drew a lot of inspiration from Eryn Allen Kane and Jessica Williams. The inspiration for her personality is a lot harder to pin down for me. I drew a lot of her interests and beliefs from my own but she's also fearless, sarcastic, and does not take any shit. I think of Nellie Bly and Ida B. Wells—she looks up to as heroes in her profession. I'm going to get a little deep and say she initially gave voice to some feelings I had about the world circa 2016 but she's not just that anymore.

September: Visually, the actors Gilbert Roland with a sprinkling of Ramon Novarro. Cecil Palmer's character in Welcome to Night Vale is baked somewhere deep in September's DNA. I'll also reveal my inner Whovian and admit that his character was very much inspired by The Doctor (particularly a mix of the Tennant (circa Donna Noble) and Capaldi eras), though replace their energetic eccentricity with that of a mild mannered, dry humored professor and you have September. At least on the surface. He's a mess beneath it all.

Hero: Out of all the characters, Hero is the character I put a lot of myself in personality wise, especially as I was right after college. As an intern at the in-universe newspaper, he gave a lot of voice to the ennui of finding your way in adult life mixed with dry humor and a hint of fatalism. After years of character development, he's not just that anymore but that is still a key component of his character. Visually, the best approximation I could find is Mackenyu as he appears in Chihayafuru.

Emery: Emery is also a response to some feelings I had about the world in 2016. Someone who, on the surface, is very salt of the earth--telling things as they are whether or not you like to hear it--but deep down is frustrated and put upon like everyone else, and has very different conclusions about it. There's definitely an injection of Ron Swanson from Parks & Rec in his character but he also comes off as the straight man in whatever wacky scenario I put him in. Visually, he's a mix of a younger, close shaven Zach Gallifinakis and Jesse Plemons.

Regina: Regina's look is very much inspired by the old vamps of Hollywood like Theda Bara (and some heavy doses of Zoey Deschanel) with some of Morticia Adams macabre sensibilities. She has a touch of quirky eccentricity that I drew from Regina Spektor's music, particularly "Pavlov's Daughter." She's daring and histrionic--a perfect mishmash of qualities. A mystery even to myself until recently.

Tattoos/scars: They have a tattoo of a mandala on their back, from which flowering vines extend down their left arm. Because of her face blindness, they apply face paint to themself to better recognize their reflection - simple streaks with complimentary dots on her upper cheeks. She has a large scar under her right breast where she was impaled by a piece of shrapnel after a military accident.

Family

Parents: Her mother was a member of the rabanastre royal guard. Their father was conscripted by the garlean empire prior to the 7th umbral calamity. She doesn't know what became of them, and doesn't remember their names.

Pets: None.

Skills

Abilities: Swordsmanship - he studied in Doma while recovering from a military accident. In combat, she incorporates samurai techniques with those of a lesser known Ishgardian faction. Conjury - after the events of EW base, she is given a white mage jobstone by E-Sumi-Yan (supposedly, it belonged to a former life of hers, a padjal by the name of Ih-Runa-Ran). Training in both Gridania and introducing herself to geomancers of Othard, she is dedicating herself to honing her craft. Trap making and mending - He can make traps for small game or for fresh water fishing. She knows how to use a furnace; how to mend a tunic; and how re-wrap the hilt of a blade with leather straps. Lots of minuet skills that come from being a former soldier.

Hobbies: Hunting - she often accepts mark bills from Clan Centurio as both light sport and a means of income. Occasionally, he'll pair up with larger hunting parties to track down higher ranking (thus more dangerous) creatures. "Cafe-ing" - the Cerulean Lotus being one of his go to spots, he often enjoys going to late night cafes, reading and just existing in the ambiance. They often won't order more than a coffee and a pastry. Reading - spoiled for choice of books, with being granted access to the Noumenon while staying at the Vairemont household, most of the book keepers have stopped trying to keep her out of the areas reserved for collegiate staff and students. Some question whether she has a goal in mind, and perhaps she did at one point, but the purpose of her research diluted with time. Now, she simply reads to, well, read.

I'm always really curious what people's reasoning is with who they design their guardian after because its one of my favorite things to figure out.

-Orroros' can't look like anyone they actually know or remember since they would immediately know its a trick. Instead Daisy is a very pretty drow that looks like an amalgamation of pretty much every trait they ever developed an affinity for during their childhood in the Feywild.

-Melkior's looks like an idealized version of one of his "uncles", one of the caretakers at the foster home he grew up in who he had a baby crush on (with the addition of tentacle tattoos around his eyes. His subconscious trying to remind him what this all is).

-Zain, my Wyllmancing wizard, has a guardian who looks like an uncanny valley version of his older sister who he accidentally killed seconds before being abducted. Zain's psionic boundaries aren't great so he genuinely isn't quite sure if he's being haunted or if they're guilt hallucinations or what. Either way it makes him very susceptible

-Aylward's looks like the guard who found her in the wreckage of her family home. The only one not immediately frightened of her.

-Emeris' looks like a younger version of Duke Stelmane. This isn't at all deeply fucked up of the Emperor
