Bride Of Rich Nights 💎
Okay, so…this is gonna be a very very very lore based-rewrite redesign because I think there’s a lot that can be done with the Bride of Rich Nights, especially since she didn’t get much of an actual role in the comics besides…being murdered for her position. Alongside that, we never actually got an actual replacement for her? Which…is the clan just run by officials?
I’m going to try and spiff things up a bit here, so let’s get to it!
Bride of Rich Nights 💎
The Bride of Rich Nights, the former Matriarch of the Yagyu clan, the self-exiled hermit of the Dragon kingdom’s mountains, simply known as Diamona the bat.
Originally, Diamona inherited her title from the former Bride of Rich Nights, her older sister and mentor Echo, after she stepped down, feeling herself unfit for the position. She was able to manage the clan with little complications, even keeping most of her relations with other clans quite well despite the peace treaty between them being…less than enforced. Things were a bit tense between them. However, The Clan Wars that happened so long ago would soon be reignited by a horrible mistake…
You see, Diamona had very little complications, but she still had issues and problems. Specifically, her greed and paranoia. The Yagyu were known assassins and thieves, raised to favor gold and riches over all else. Wealth was everything and anything to the clan. However, none favored riches more than Diamona.
Her closest guards one day came to her with news. Little did she know though that this very information would flip her world around on its crowned head. The news? The Bride of Constant Vigil was planning something against her, something that involved her riches. Still much younger than the other Brides and far less wise at the time, she considered her options. But the most pleasing one came to her quickly.
Thus, she sent her apprentice, Mithral, to get rid of Vigil’s most precious thing. Her son. The apprentice, however, could not stomach this, for the Bride’s son was still a child and Mithral herself on the edge of adulthood. So, instead, she tricked him into venturing out, knocked him unconscious, and flew him far away enough that he would not be able to return easily. To a place called…Downunda, she would tell her bride later, reasoning that she followed her orders.
This was not what the Bride wanted though. She wanted Vigil to suffer for plotting against her and her clan! However, news reached quickly and, as it turns out, this still was impactful. Vigil became furious but blamed Reach instead of Diamona. As it turns out, Reach blamed Storm for theft of one of her written down visions, which Storm denied but blamed Vigil for it. As it turns out, Diamona’s command caused the treaty to break and war to begin once more with Diamona right in the center of it. The three attempted to get her on their side, each with riches of some kind.
Fo once in her life, she denied them every single time. She could not be bought. The riches she once desired and obsessed over now brought her pain and discomfort to look upon. What had she done? She didn’t mean for war, she didn’t mean to cause any of this. Diamona stewed away for days, alone until her apprentice finally broke that self-confinement. Mithral asked what she was going to do.
So she did the only thing she could do. Diamona told Mithral she would step-down, leave her people to pick someone more befitting. She wasn’t fit to rule and that was blatantly clear to her now. Her behavior had been horrible and inexcusable, clouded by her paranoia and greed.
However, she gave Mithral one more command as her bride. Find Vigil’s son, find the missing prophecy, and bring them both back to fix the mistake she can’t. She doesn’t deserve their forgiveness, not now and probably not ever. Mithral agreed and helped her leave without a trace, heading off herself after aiding her Bride one last time.
Present day, she resides deep within the caverns of the mountain areas, guiding any lost residents from the shadows who wander too deep. She lives alone, self-exiled until she can believe she deserves any chance at redemption. Her guilt eats at her, though Diamona is a bit surprised by how satisfied she is without all of her once precious treasures.
However, what she never realized was that her sudden vanishing made the other Brides believe that the same person who made Vigil’s son vanish made The Bride of Rich Nights vanish as well. This only made the fighting worse. Mithral is still searching as well, doing her absolute best to fulfill her Bride’s final order. Perhaps though…she may just stumble upon her goal soon enough. With help from the freedom fighters…or perhaps from a certain detective agency? That’s a story for another time though, isn’t it?

Designs for most of the Minecraft animals <3 planning to implement them when I'm finished with the monsters!
Hi there, I heard you have a silly thing about Liza being raised by Hershey!! :3
I’m a super big fan of the chameleon mobians; you don’t have to, but could you indulge a request to talk about them?
HIIII HELLO
Why yes I DO have a lot of silly thoughts about Liza let's get started.
For Chaotixgame reasons I was thinking about different ways that Archie-verse characters could fit into the IDW continuity. There are a few characters I put into a mercenary group (since the Diamond Cutters can't have been the only mercenaries around) and without revealing toooo much about the other members, I sort of imagined that Hershey would be the leader and that she brought Liza up after adopting her in a big sister kind of way.
It's like Espio and Vector but instead of a DJ detective, Liza was taken in by these mercenaries.
I haven't put too much down on paper but it's already one of those ideas I'm WAY too attached to.
Obviously this version of Liza is very different from the character we get in the comics. I sorta speedran her planned Archie character arc from terrified sheltered kid to adventurous, competent weird girl ninja (kept the botany nerd stuff though). She's got some interesting adoptive sisters.
Bonus things maybe - at some point Hershey absolutely had to break it to Liza that she's not a cat. I also think Liza has a few quirks from growing up without any reptilian influences; she's a lot more expressive with her tail and her hand gestures because she doesn't have ears to emote with, all that. She appreciates a good nap and gets the 3am zoomies. Just cat things.
Happy Thanksgiving, you super stars! I hope everyone is staying safe, happy, and healthy during these times of COVID-19, regardless of how insane it is that we’re all stuck in quarantine and stuff.
I did some doodles of personified Discord Bots from the Danganronpa Roleplay server I’m in. Hope you guys like them!
Other than that, I just want you all to know that you’re all:
Strong
Cooler than cucumbers
Fabulous
Magnificent
Unbelievably amazing
This post probably won’t mean much, maybe it will. Who knows? COVID has made everything crazy and unpredicatable.
Faceless god? Why not?
Here is my Jester God OC Harley! (They/he/it) Very proud of how they came out!
SEE YAAAA!!
So I decided that, after seeing an old redesign attempt from February in my gallery, I was going to reattempt to give this wonderful woman from the Archie comics a new look!
While I haven’t exactly gotten caught up with everything from the Archie comics, I did hyper-fixate on everything Ninja related. So, let’s go ahead and attempt a modernized rendition of
The Bride of Constant Vigil 👁
The Bride of Constant Vigil, one of the three remaining brides of the Matriarchal Dragon Kingdom, Head of the Shinobi Clan, Mother and Master to Espio the Chameleon.
After having inherited her title from a young age, she hardened herself with training and the responsibility of keeping her clan safe. Due to the clan wars being endlessly brutal, Vigil made the decision to take her people and retreat into the shadows, using their honed techniques of invisibility and espionage to keep watch over threats. Even so, the clan still kept their distance from the actual battles, turning their eyes towards other zones in the mean time…just in case. Then came the peace treaty, though none of the Brides truly believed it would last very long…
She personally trained her child, making sure that he would be prepared for any enemy or trouble, should he have to face it. Despite this, Vigil forbid him from actually leaving to go on any missions, which led to him eventually vanishing, leaving only a vague note and a single Kunai. Furious and frantic, she sent a trusted and trained guard to find him. Leading up to present day, she has heard from neither her son nor the guard she sent.
Speaking of present day, the matriarch has become cold and closed off from others, spending most of her time meditating or training on her own. She has become brash and hard from time and will not hesitate to silence you for good if you step one foot out of line. While on the side of neutrality, Vigil remains as brutal as her fellow Brides.
Might end up doing this for the other brides and stuff too. I just really like ninjas
zero danganronpas here
your Legolas is definitely the prettiest 🥺♥️ the official Legolas for me even
What's funny is that even though I've been drawing brown-haired and -skinned Legolas since like 2005, the raccoon comic is definitely the dumbest I've ever drawn him. Normally I make him real heroic:
Here he is heroically patrolling a Mirkwood escarpment (2017)
And watching the destruction of Mt. Doom while favoring a heroically bowstring-burnt forearm (2019) and staring heroically into the distance in Rohan (2016)
maggie and moe.
someone on twitter pointed it out that this is their dynamic, and I agree 10000%
