Now, here we have the last Gizoid idea that I requested from my friends and family, this one being made for my friend Savannah. And as I mentioned with Zephry, both Zephyr and Corva are coming out together, and will have a connected story, due to close finishing times and similar theming. So, they are comrades. (Also, I swapped Corva and Zephyr’s intended order, due to Corva having a little more story to herself.)

Corva’s idea phase went through a lot of change, actually. Savannah wanted a bird-themed Gizoid, even down to the abilities. But, considering this was intended as a birthday gift, I wanted to take it a step further, and asked Savannah what her favorite bird was. And she said her favorite bird was the crow.

...And that got me thinking more along the lines of stealth. Crows and ravens are birds of the night, after all. So, I discussed it with Savannah, and agreed to alter the idea to make more of a stealth-type Gizoid. We even changed the name to “Corva”, based on corvids, the family of birds that crows and ravens belong to.

I also loved the idea of making another stealth Gizoid, since up until now, Argentum was my only stealth Gizoid (my brother has a stealth-themed Gizoid too, but we’ll get to that). Although, I think I might’ve ended up leaning more toward a raven than a crow...

But I am also still keeping the original idea, including some of the original abilities (which is everything but the feathered throwing knives), so I can still make that idea into a Gizoid at a later date, perhaps as Corva’s robo-sister. (And it is because of this that I am not going to reveal the original name, yet...)

Also, with the nightbird and stealth theme, plus the throwing knives idea, Savannah’s idea here reminded me a lot of Vax'ildan from Critical Role: Campaign 1 and The Legend of Vox Machina, due to his connection to the Raven Queen (something I’m sure could be more well known now, since we’ve seen this in Vox Machina Season 2). I didn’t want to base this Gizoid too much on that idea, but it was enough for me to want to lean into a sort of rogue-like style to the Gizoid. This also gives Corva a similar but different enough theme from my brother’s Gizoid, Zephyr.

Besides all of that, I also came up with this dark-energy idea for Crova. Not a darkness-type theme, like with Parallax or Kronos, but more like night energies.

Also, like with Alder, the Gizoid I made for my friend Caitlin, this Gizoid’s model number has Savannah’s birthdate, since it was intended as a birthday gift (even a VERY late one).

I hope you like this, Savannah!
