Dusttale: Revived | Character Concepts Pt.1

Character Information Pt. 2

Here is another info dump regarding a few of the characters.

Merriweather - UNDERSWAP

Merriweather, or just Merrie, has the ability to summon a massive warhammer, think Sardonyx from Steven Universe or Tinkaton from Pokémon. However, she does get a bit overexcited when using it, looking a big unhinged but she’s just really excited to use it.

Miriam - SWAPFELL

Miriam can also summon a weapon as well, a huge spiked flail, something like Sweetheart’s from OMORI but bigger. I would actually imagine her voice to be similar to the Man on the Internet lyrical video of World’s End Valentine.

Avenir - FELLSWAP (GOLD)

Much like his Underfell counterpart, Avenir is Trans: female to male. This started out due to him thinking that he had to be a man to be taken seriously by his people, but grew to love his new identity & officially transitioned when he was older. His original name was Aldria.

These are just a few facts for now, please comment down below what I could improve upon or your headcanons for these characters.

Could you please tag for horror/ unsettling?

Of course! Sorry for that.

Dusttale: Revived | Character Concepts Pt.4

Here are my takes on the Gaster’s Followers.

They will play an interesting part in the story, along with an explanation for why they look & act the way they do. I’ll probably explain their backstory more when I post the “promo” art featuring them & a few others.

I want to give them other names besides “Gaster’s Follower 1, 2 &3”; I have a few ideas that I’ll be playing around with.

Follower 1

Follower 2

Follower 3

All 3 work alongside Dr. Serif, usually at least one of them is always by her side.

While their souls are still there, their vessels are no longer theirs to control. Their body, their smiles, their voices belong to him now.

—————————

Regarding their designs I’ll explain the following:

Follower 1 has a similar appearance to the Ficus Licker in the MTT Hotel. They always kind of looked like a gingerbread man, but I decided to give them a more alien-like appearance, who also looks starved or malnourished. Also their left arm got ripped off & absorbed by Subject BV1.2-004.09.

Follower 2 has a similar appearance to the scared donut guy in Hotland. I’ve seen many people draw them as a cat so I decided to do the same, specifically a bobcat or a bob-tailed cat. I decided to represent the face in their hand as a face in a mirror, while their head has a big smile. While all 3 are connected in a hive mind manner, this Follower acts like the main host or leader of the group.

Follower 3, while at first glance looks like a giant scary face, they have a similar silhouette to the stripped bird in Deltarune. I didn’t based them off a specific bird, but I did want to give them feathered legs & feet like some breeds of chickens. Also their neck can stretch to great lengths, like the Rokurokubi.

Here is the rough draft of one of the alternate personalities for my OC. She is dog demon, specifically a Pomeranian.

This is personality has a punk like demeanor, and is considered to be the “party animal” of the personalities. She’s very social and knows how to leave an impression (not always a great one though). The various clubs and bars are her comfort zones.

She always wanted to be in a band, being rather talented with drums and bass guitar, and her singing isn’t bad either; not good but not bad. She can be rather reckless and ignorant towards most, getting herself into a few scuffles.

I decided to lower the number of personalities to 5, and still thinking of names.

So I’m starting to get back into the Undertale AUs fandom, and looking back through my past art, I found some rough pencil drawings of what I think was a ship child between Toriel & Sans along with other AUs:

After getting a lot of Undertale AU content on YouTube, mainly videos involving the Murder Time Trio, I got inspired to redesign this character and their alternate versions.

The AUs that I’m gonna be working on:

Undertale

Underfell

Underswap

Swapfell

Fellswap

Outertale

Horrortale

Dancetale

Reapertale

Dusttale

XTale

Killer AU

Dreamtale (Dream/Nightmare)

Underkeep

Birdtale

Plus anymore that you guys suggest.

Now I know alternate versions would probably not be likely in a few of these AUs, but this is more for designing and personality building between the versions.

I’ll post the redesign of the attached character, and then start working on their alternate versions.

Stragedys Redesign

This is actually the character that sparked this idea of redesigning my Overlord OCs. I just didn’t like how he looked, mainly his clothing.

Here is the finished redesign of Stragedys, plus the addition of his pet hellsheep: Phema.

While redesigning him, I decided to take some inspiration from Cyclops, specifically Polyphemus from the Odyssey.

I made his hair curly and changed the clothes to look more like the Greek Military uniform during the Balkan Wars since that is when he died.

His sheep is obviously a reference to Polyphemus and how he cared for flocks of sheep.

Neue & AU Variants: Clothing Rough Draft Pt.2/6

Here are of the clothing rough drafts for Miriam, Avenir, & Crimson.

Miriam

Avenir

Crimson

Avenir gave me the most trouble when creating his outfit, but Crimson was nostalgic since I based his coat off the one my great grandpa gave me.

Dusttale: Revived | Research Notes for JUSTICE

Who Should I “Mati-fy” Next?

So if you have seen my recent post, Mati has the ability to “impersonate” any individual that Mati has seen.

I used Mabel as an example, mainly because I like to imagine that Mabel befriended Mati when her & Mati first met.

This also gives me an excuse to “redesign” characters from the show.

I was gonna go through all the Pines, but I figured it would be fun to mix it up a bit.

So who should I “Mati-fy” next?

Update on PPt OC

I’m going to start working on my ‘ex-worker’ OC, but I’m going to display him in a different kind of format. Mainly through found documents & items, & even written out ‘commercials/broadcast’.

I’m still trying to figure out the style to draw these characters in, I like the cartoon style but the ‘realistic’ style works better for darker themes. I’ll probably bounce between the 2.

I’m also planning on making a second account just for Poppy Playtime OCs, still thinking of a name though. I’ll be moving all of my ppt art to that account once it’s been created.

Anyway, I’ll give the basic background about this character:

The main premise is that he is a parent of one of the orphans in Playcare. Basically his wife took the child there without him knowing until it was too late.

After some unfavorable actions, he got a job at Playtime Co to find his child. However, he got fired & even jailed due to some violent behavior.

He just got released, & under a new identity, he comes back to the now dilapidated factory with the delusion that his child is still there somewhere.

His name is Martin Redd, but that’s not his true name. That will revealed in due time.

By the way, this guy is like in his early 50s during chapters 1-4, so you can imagine what traversing through the factory is like for him.

I’ll reveal more of his character through future posts. But to simplify him as much as possible: he’s a loving father with good intentions, but makes incredibly bad life decisions.
