A quick comp of all the new icons I made for characters on Art Fight this year! It's an absolute godsend on actually getting me to update my character profiles <3 Two of these were also updated icons rather than new ones! Can you guess which ones?

doomed by the narrative, infinity, the depths?

doomed by the narrative:

Phoenix. The narrative never wanted him here. He was never supposed to be a part of the narrative in the first place. He just wants to exist, they just want a family, but they have a responsibility in this narrative and it does not like the fact that they are not following their role

Infinity:

(Art+Design by hotchocolategalaxy on toyhouse)

Paradox. They have infinite knowledge, exist in infinite timelines, can see everything and everyone and every time at once and yet they still manage to find you. And they hate you

The Depths:

Fantasi Wally: I was gonna pick someone edgy for this but I need everyone to see my silly silly boy. Part ouppy dog and part deep sea fish who carries his fishie friends with him wherever he goes

"This vireo is common in summer in mixed forest, where conifers and deciduous trees grow together. When feeding, it works rather deliberately along branches, searching for insects. Its nest, a bulky cup suspended in the fork of a twig, is often easy to find. This bird was formerly lumped with the western Plumbeous and Cassin's vireos under the name Solitary Vireo."

The Spades Kingdom finally has a ruler! This is Raven :) She inherited the throne WAY too early, but she's doing a very good job actually! Though she does let herself have one (1) day a month to let herself just be a silly little kid and steal some cookies c: Very shaped very silly and very cute!

Everyone thank @arcaneyouth for designing her!

Great news in an effort to find guys that I don't talk about as often I literally have 5 guys burgers and fries that I so desperately wanted to share here

Amaranth, the Monster in charge of all the other Echo Monsters. She knew the role was coming and prepared for it well, insuring that she would never lose herself to the power that would someday be hers. And she's doing a great job so far! She keeps herself busy by collecting departed souls, keeping the ones she finds interesting to help her elsewhere. Because every Echo Monster is at least partially influenced by their Lead at all times, it means Echo Monsters quite often have very little apprehension towards death and pain. They know full well Amaranth is coming for them anyway

Celeste (right) pictured with her girlfriend Sable (left)! They are SOOO sweet and so so patient with each other. Sable is nonverbal and Celeste has godawful eyesight so communication between the two is fairly difficult but they just love each other so much. They care about each other more than anything so they've worked hard to find their own method of communication. They share music, they go places that remind them of the other, when Celeste is having a good day with her eyes they like to share art that makes them think of each other or moments they've shared, it's honestly so so sweet. They're both really shy but neither of them are afraid of standing up for each other. Celeste will berate you until you never speak to her again. Sable will just beat you up. And i love them

Cynthia! The goddess of dreams, and protector of those who follow them. She dream hops to communicate, and tends to sleepwalk while doing so. Her assigned guardians spend most of their time making sure she doesn't accidentally hurt herself walking places, and she loves them dearly for it. She's only awake once a month or so, and uses her time to check up on those who haven't dreamed in a while and to make sure her domain is safe. Sometimes her friends try to predict when these conscious moments will be and surprise her c: she's very sweet and very quiet. And also incredibly powerful. But no one ever really sees her use that power, she doesn't enjoy it

(Art+design by @arcaneyouth !)

Mirage! The royal advisor to Raven, the queen of spades. Despite her title Raven is like 12 so Mirage has their hands full trying to guide her. She definitely knows what she's doing, she's studied hard and she's dedicated to her position, but Mirage can see slightly into the future and has debilitating anxiety so really there's only so much she can do to put his mind at ease. They try to use their abilities to help her during meetings but really they mostly use it to help her not get caught when she's trying to be a kid for once. He cares about her a lot. He's also going to keel over from stress at any given second

(Design by youronlydrpepper!)

Simon! I talk about him more than anyone else on this list but he gets added because of why he's pink. You see, Ghosts in the Whisper Court universe are color coded by how friendly they are to humans. Simon, according to this code, is naturally blue. It's nice! But it's not his favorite color. Since he's a Guardian Spirit he's given a lot more power than most Ghosts to use in protecting his given domain. Since his domain is a school that still sees daytime use, however, there's never really much to protect the place from. So he consciously and constantly uses some of his power to make himself appear pink all the time. It's fucking amazing and I love him. He comes off as this really professional and mentor-like figure to everyone around him and that he's really serious and then you find out he's constantly using 10% of his brain to make himself pink because he likes it :) I'm obsessed with him
