HOWEVER, I do have another project that'll be here quite a bit, and today I posted a sketch from it; Infernus. It stems from my seeing too many 'demonic' characters who wouldn't hurt a fly... I decided to create a cast of really EVIL evil characters.They may love eachother, being a family, but they have no sympathy for anyone else, least of all the human race... and they show no mercy.
It's a long, rather epic story; I don't know quite where it ends yet. It starts with a young Cassien (he prefers Casen though) Infernus, Lord of the Inferno, who is quickly becoming one of the most powerful and influential demons of his day; and it follows him through many many years of chaos and destruction, right to his eldest son reaching demonic adulthood. I separate the story into five 'books' though I only intend to try and write the last one.
The first is a history of the world, and some stuff about the order of sucession within demonic families, the general hierarchy etc.
The second, I call 'The Amazing Social Life of Casen Infernus' which is fairly self explanatory.
Then there is book three, which I'm still not sure of a title for, which follows his 'bonding' which is the demonic equivalent of marriage, I suppose, and the start of his family. Yay.
Book four, Raegan's Inferno, is a look at the demonic world through the eyes of a young human girl who was sold to a demon slave trader. When you look at Casen's life through demonic eyes all the time you start to think they're just like us- but they're not, and book four is there to prove it. Lots of violence and nasty stuff in this.
And book five, Dragonsoul, is the one I'd consider writing at some point. Veradi, Casen's eldest son, has almost reached adulthood, and has some serious problems... his demonic powers aren't really surfacing properly, while the ritual that celebrates leaving childhood behind, The Induction, is drawing ever closer- and he'll need his powers if he's to survive it. Casen's youngest child, his only daughter Draconia, is just growing into her powers, which are more extreme than either of her arents had expected... And assassins and conspiracies are everywhere.
Anyway. That should give you an idea. I need to work on my illustration skills so expect lots of scenes from that
