(Temporary ref) Wowowoow new character Not proud of this at all Actually i had this guy for a while in my brain and only drew him now oof (a while meaning 10 months :0) Now I’ve come to realize it looks a bit like the character in my first project because of the bunny mask Why must the world be so cruel D: OKAY THE LORE FOR THIS MAN IS COMPLICATED SO YOU MAY WANT TO SIT DOWN FOR THIS ALSO IT’S A BIT DARK SO UH SO 21 grew up in a town that was tormented by ghost stories that he and his brother (orphaned) thought were ridiculous. One in particular, they called it “The Voice”, was the town’s worst fear. It was said that the Voice would lead young people to its control by bribing them with their greatest desires, then use them to wreck havoc. The town was sure that someone living there was the Voice’s next victim, so they needed to find out and unalive that person as fast as possible before others fell into its control. that suspected person turned out to be 21’s brother. They came into the small house in which 21 and his brother lived, and demanded that 21 tell them where he was. 21, 5 at the time, had absolutely no clue what was going on. His brother (13, actually his age not his name lol), thankfully, appeared before the townspeople would start pressuring him, but he refused to come with them. Once he did, the townspeople decided to burn down their house. His brother told him to run. 21 had no idea what else to do. So he did. Someone, approximately 19 years old, found him in the woods, passed out from the exhaust in the air. This person quickly took him in and introduced himself as Ichori. They spent a couple of days together until 21 started to wonder what had happened to his brother. He returned to the debris of his home, only to find that his brother was ded. He was, of course, grieving in good old 5 year old fashion, while Ichori helped him back on his feet. 21 made a home with Ichori, and 10 years passed together before the townspeople discovered where he was. The townspeople still believed the Voice was out there, and had possessed 21. Ichori knew this after a talk with one of them, and was willing to protect 21 at all costs. So, when they finally came for 21, Ichori had sent him into town (not his hometown) on an errand. 21, unfortunately, got back early and witnessed the deth of Ichori. He had lost everything at this point. then something started talking in his head. It said he should go for revenge. Destroy everything those people had, like they did to him. Make them pay. And he agreed. This “thing” that possessed him was none other than The Voice.
