I would love to see more of your take on alive!skulduggery. I love imagining what he'd be like if he had come back to life in Resurrection, I think he'd be real pretty (your art is great btw <3)

You’re in luck, my friend. Damn y’all, I am just pumping art out this week! You can tell when the quality is at its highest…👀 Wouldn’t have it any other way, though.

That doodle with him and Ghastly was just meant to be a Predator handshake but I thought “hey, they probably did a bit of arm wrestling to pass the time as stowaways” and I like it better, I have to say. (I like drawing muscles, maybe)

I wasn’t even going to think about hair or eye colour but I just went with red hair because come on the fandom practically made this canon, and I gave him some deep, brown eyes because I think it makes him look smoking hot.

There’s so many scenes from Resurrection I would loooove to draw (especially the scenes with corrupted Skug) so hold out guys, okay? For now I hope you like Val acting a fool and Skulduggery enjoying a big ol’ wrap.

Peccant: The odds of that happening coincidentally are vanishingly small.

Militsa: I would say infinitesimally.

Fletcher: Yes, and I would say teenily-weenily. We all know words.

Skulduggery: Thank you for agreeing to see me.

Uther: I didn't. You just walked in here and started talking.

Skulduggery: I don't have time for a history lesson.

[facelessxchurch]

Remember when I suggested the name Nefarian comes from WoW? Well Skulduggery's older brother is named Uther Peccant, same name as Uther the Lightbringer, the paladin/angel guy from that latest Sylvanas cinematic, who in turn is named after Uther Pendragon from Arthurian legend. So there's plausible deniability there, but I think the evidence Derek is a WoW player and some of his inspiration comes from there is mounting

Or it could be that both SP and WoW have too many gd characters, so some characters share a name by coincidence. I'd call it a 50/50 chance tbh.

Btw Uther is Skul's younger brother, Carver is his older brother.

I don't know much about Uther Pendragon. But Skul described his siblings as 'noble' before so one of his brothers being named after a figure from an Arthurian Legend fits, I guess. His last name is interesting tho 👀

Ok, theory time here bc the names in SP tend to foreshadow stuff. Uther was the father of King Arthur. If Skul takes the role of Athur via being a 'legendary figure' then Uther could hint a connection to their father Gog Magog/Abrogate Raze. Connected to his second name he could be taking the role of spreading their fathers influence like a disease and that's his sin??

___________________

As for Nefarian's name, I think this name might have been chosen for him as reference to Mevolent? Both names having a similar meaning and Latin origins and I vaguely remember that in the first book Nef tented to usually be mentioned in connection to Mev as 'Mevolent's servant' or his 'lieutenant' and things like that. He very much took the role of being Mev's spiritual heir as the biggest threat to the Sanctuaries and arbiter of Mev's influence even after his death. Also, one of the synonyms for 'nefarious' is 'ungodly'/'unholy' and while that foreshadows that Nef might not be that religious, like we've seen in SoW, it also fits so well with my headcanon of Nef worshipping Mevolent more than he worships the Faceless Ones ♥

Then again, in the case of Nefarian's name I might be biased bc I ship those two so hard and I love their birds-of-a-feather moments <3333

Handbook Teaser

SP Faces: Skulduggery's Family Edition 2.0

Top: Carver Gallant, Skulduggery Pleasant, Confelicity Divine

Second Row: Francis Gadabout, Petulance Ruin, Uther Peccant

Third Row: Bayard Muchly, Sophrosyne Grace

Bottom Row: Apricity Delight, Respair Kempt

In the Handbook, all Skug's siblings have fully-fleshed-out backstories and personalities, and they all get a little section about their personal history. I have kept almost nothing from the Grimoire's "Abrogate Raze" sections, because like 98% of that storyline sucked ass. Also, some names changed, either for brainrot reasons - "Fransic Catawampus" is the stupidest fucking name in the entire series, fight me Lardo - or to fit the personalities I gave them.

wait

in bedlam does skulduggery specify that his brother who is still alive is an older brother? can someone w a paperback copy/updated copy please confirm this, bc uther peccant, aka his actual brother, is younger than skulduggery by a good fifteen years and idk if i'm just being stupid here

like i realise this was cleared up ages ago but an older brother would mean carver, since skulduggery was the second oldest

[supersomethinglikethat]

Grimoire Spoilers.

It's occuring to me that I'm pretty sure that in earlier books in phase 2, Skulduggery mentions he has an older brother still out there. We now know this to be Uther Peccant. He is described as look physically older so this tracks.

However, in the Grimoire, Uther is not older than Skulduggery's. He's younger. So did Derek get confused with his older bro and Peccant or?....
