yeah, you’re not rid of me
i’ll make you lick my injuries
i’m gonna twist your head off, see
I made some ocs for @elmushterri 's The Knight's Handbook story. I'm low-key obsessed.
TW for Guns, Blood, Tobacco, Violence, and Strangulation
First off, Credence Gallo He/him. Born in 1878, Credence moved to New York at a young age and quickly became involved in mob life, especially after the "no booze" act was passed. He began helping his "family" with bootlegging. His real family never knew until his sister found out. Unfortunately, when she discovered his secret his boss was present! Both the boss and sister pulled guns on each other, forcing him to choose a side. He chose his boss, and was killed saving them from a deadly bullet from his sister. He hates who he was in life, and for a long time he didn't feel deserving of his role as a Knight. His weapon is a gun, and for a long while it takes the same form as the one that shot him.
Eunice Simon, they/them. They were born in 1968 and died at 15. They were an 80s kid! During the time their story takes place, I imagine that they only recently became a knight, and Credence is forced to take them under their wing. Their weapon is a comically large sword made of crystal, which is used more like a club. They died protecting a kid from some bullies. In the drawing they're getting choked to death, but I think in reality the killing blow would be an unfortunately placed kick to the neck. It took a long time for Eunice to accept that their death was an accident.
Big parent/child vibes from these two. Once Credence really accepts his role as a Knight, his gun changes form.
Eunice stops aging in their late 30s.
In the actual Knight's Handbook story, I imagine that they'd both side with Sidra. They both appreciate her spunk and energy and think that she'll make a great queen.
Finally, we have Tierney Shepard, or Tyr for short, He/They/It. He's based on the Norse God of War and is VERY old. This guy is from the Middle ages. He died at 36, defending his flock from a freakishly large wolf and losing his hand in the process. His weapon is a large scythe that resembles a Shepard's staff. He can form a magical hand to use the scythe. The hand can only touch the scythe, it's useless for anything else. Other than regular Knight powers, they also have the ability to talk to animals most notably sheep, which are easiest for him to understand. Because of how freaking old he is, he has an awakened form, which is on the right. He doesn't use it often as it's very draining to use. It also has the epithet: The Shepard Knight (very creative, I know). Tyr will probably side with Jules or remain neutral. He thinks that Sidra is too headstrong, and the Jules is too bitter. He's not a fan of dogs.
I swear the normalizing of swearing at each other has made some insults so much less funnier. Like yeah I could call you a god d**ed b****ed but then you would understand that I was saying that thou were born out of wedlock and are hence forth sentenced to be tortured for the rest of eternity in the greatest depths of the underworld as sentenced by God themselves. Wich I feel is a relatively big loss
Anyone ever noticed how vaguely off most mideval type pictures are but like
What if they were ALL very accurate and things just looked like this
I'm not even sure if this is even a cat but take it as example
