Alrighty! It's done! I was dead, now i'm not, AND IT'S DONE! We've got three sprites here: Regular Minion: Not much changed from the original concept, read up on that because i don't wanna repeat myself. New change: The whole "spirit form" thing is no more. Now when a minion shatters, the glass simply magically fuses back together within a couple of hours. Special Minions: Alpha, Beta, and Gamma are the best performing minions of the Shadow Lord. Long ago, they were regular Minions, Minion 47, Minion 48, and Minion 38. They frequently fought together and were... kind of friends? It was as much of a friendship as was possible for minions. Shadow Lord noticed their achievements, and made them Special, gifting each one of them a new weapon, a trait, a name and identity. Their magic color is the same as their eye color. Alpha was given the gift of Determination. It's strength is above the strength of the other Minions, and its Sword was made bigger to represent that. Once shattered, Alpha regenerates almost 5x faster than the average minion, taking at most maybe.... 30 to 45 minutes? It can power the sword up using its magic. Beta was given the gift of wisdom... and also being short. If it had a voice, it would be VERY mad about being short. Beta's weapon is a Crossbow, the bolts are generated by its magic. It can read and write exceptionally well, and knows the entirety of the alphabet! (most minions only know half of it) It has studied many books and is now a master of precision. If there is anyone the minions listen to besides the Shadow Lord, it is Beta. Gamma was given the gift of Endurance. Its large body, despite being made of the same material as the other minions, is way more durable, being able to take AT LEAST 50 hits before shattering. Gamma was given a Spear and a Shield with the emblem of the Shadow Lord. The shield is the only weapon of the minions that isn't made of shadow, instead being made of steel. It serves more as a trophy, Gamma is by itself a shield, but it can block and absorb some magic. Shadow Lord: ...lore... uh.... mostly unchanged, but there was basically none before this. He got a design! I think goul wasn't signed up again , so just in case there's no big villain by the end of it, feel free to upgrade Shadow Lord and the gang to main villains. Anyways, it's past 00:00 and i have school tomorrow. NEED TO GET THIS OUT ASAP
Also, guess all the skulls on Alpha. Beta, and Gamma on first try with no searching it up and i'll draw anything you want and share it.
