UPDATE 1/31/2025: I have made my decision. As of today, the two main protagonists will be Hiyana Prollen and Jesse (the gender swapped versions). I have decided to do this because I wanted to create a strong female protagonist with cool lightning powers, which is honestly I find underrepresented across media, and I really like how her design went out as well. As for Jesse, I decided to make him male to avoid one of the common tropes of the girl leaning on her hero, as the case with Jasmine would've turned out. But for those of you that loved the original design, don't worry, I won't fully abandon them. In fact, nothing will actually change with this project. My art will still feature Hoaki and Jasmine, but for the new account when the story is done, the stories will have the genderbended versions. And of course, I'll do some art with Hiyana and Jesse too. ORIGINAL TEXT: Hey everyone. I'm posting this to let you all know about an idea that I would like your suggestions on. So, I'm thinking of genderbending the two main protagonists (Hoaki and Jasmine) into their opposite genders. Hiyana (Female Hoaki) would look pretty cool being a girl with lightning powers, which is something I don't see often across media, because it's always the guys that get the cool lightning powers, and her stories could fit really well. And Jesse (Male Jasmine) would be more fitting as an experiment with an alter ego, and another moment he makes with another member in the group. One quick note, I'm not fully rewriting the story, I'm just thinking of remodeling the characters. Now, if you guys prefer it, I'll keep Hoaki and Jasmine as they are, but if you want changes, let me know down in the comments. Also, I'm not changing Jonathan or Lennia, they will stay the same. tags: #all #art #anime #characters #lost
