Description A quick reference sheet I put together for Violet. It's not particularly extensive, but it has all the important details in there.

This is actually the first time I've drawn her new outfit in something finished as opposed to various sections of it. I really like how the colours work together

I'll probably do a more complete one at some point. For now though, if you need more detail as to what does what on her outfit you can check these out:

She's from my own story that I'm working on, White Shadow. There's more about it in my gallery if you wanna take a look.

Hi. It's been a while since I've checked this. The character is really good. Have you finished that story?

No, not yet unfortunately. It's still under development, but things are falling into place.

A stealth assassin with a bell hanging from her collar, so everyone hears her coming... Does that make any sense? xD

Nevermind, this is an awesome work!

Thanks!
The bell doesn't actually make an audible sound, it's more of a resonance device that helps her not to completely flip out and kill everyone

I have to say, this has to be the first character I've ever seen that has been a total badass, and wore a bell without it taking away from said badassness.

Beautiful job on her, she's gorgeous and sexy.. in the kind of way you think "Wow! Even while she's cutting my throat open she's hot!"

Awesome work, but I'm wondering how that bell doesn't disturb her stealth..

funkyalien In reply to Midnight-Water [2010-02-16 14:39:33 +0000 UTC]

Thanks very much Can't say I'd be thinking she's hot while cutting my throat though... more like "OH GOD GET THIS CRAZY WOMAN OFF ME " but I get what you mean

As for the bell, I've mentioned it a few times (though I could do with putting it in the image description) so it is for ya:

It doesn't actually make an audible ringing sound. It's more of a mechanical device that emits a particular frequency. Movement of the bell can amplify the frequency (i.e. motion or striking), which works for her as her condition can be triggered with adrenaline.

SirHannibal In reply to funkyalien [2009-11-12 19:15:54 +0000 UTC]

oh ok....cause then ah kept looking and then noticed they had different names so ah was like ur an idiot(talking to myself) So Violet is the one with the raging disorder and Shadow is the white ninja girls....there both ninjas ah get that and her brother is a lion which is so far my favorite because im a leo. And her real name is felicia....gotcha

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

funkyalien In reply to SirHannibal [2009-11-15 23:22:35 +0000 UTC]

Uh, kinda but not quite
Violet is the one with the disorder (though she's just sociopathic anyway), and White Shadow (Felicia) is the main character. Both are essentially ninjas, though with very different motives and goals.
I guess the lion you're refering to is Leon, who is actually another cat and not Felicia's brother but her love interest. As he's a cop and Felicia's a thief, it creates all kinds of conflict with them.

Holy. Sh...aving cream!
I LOVE her eyes. The little patch of white over them (in contrast to her dark fur and hair) really draws attention to them. And they're gorgeous!

Hee hee, can you imagine her trying to comfortably sit down in a chair with two katanas strapped up close to her butt? :giggles: (I'd draw it as a fun fanart, but something tells me she'd rip my arm off)

funkyalien In reply to sonictheonlyhedgehog [2009-08-01 22:06:26 +0000 UTC]

Hehe Luckily the mount for the swords allows them to rotate so they go horizontal when she sits down, so it's less of a problem

funkyalien In reply to Crackerjackthe4th [2009-07-31 23:21:03 +0000 UTC]

I've explained it a few times in other comments about it, but basically the bell doesn't make an audible ringing sound. It's more of a device that emits a particular frequency that keeps her mental condition in check. Without it, she may end up ripping apart everyone and everything that happens to be in the same room if her condition is triggered.

Soi Fong was one of the more recent inspirations for Violet's current design, but I had come up with the character long before I'd know about Bleach. Soi Fong is a good point of reference though

soan [2009-07-20 06:23:48 +0000 UTC]

You're pretty vague on the "rare condition" that I would like to know more about. How can a bell keep it in check?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

funkyalien In reply to soan [2009-07-22 12:30:41 +0000 UTC]

Wow, people sure are curious about this condition, huh I'll probably make another deviation explaining it (or edit the description in this one) but here's a breakdown of it all. Copy/pasta, btw.

Her condition is called Feral Psychosis. It's similar in some loose ways to Mowgli Syndrome, though it tends to be more dormant until triggered through high levels of adrenaline. At that point, the condition can take effect rather suddenly and is often painful. Kinda like all the neurons in the brain firing in overdrive. The following symptoms shuld be fairly apparent, the most prevalent being a lot of self restraint usually manifesting in violence.

Violet's a trained killer. She dislikes not being in control of her own actions, though.

As for the bell; it doesn't actually make an audible ringing sound. It's a mechanical device more than a typical bell, and it emits a particular frequency that helps keep her in check. It gets stronger with motion, which serves to counter the effects of adrenaline produced through physical exertion (adrenaline being the trigger for the condition).

soan In reply to funkyalien [2009-07-22 14:05:41 +0000 UTC]

Well, the reason I asked is because its similar to Soan. Except for Soan, it's more metaphysical than a mental condition. Soan has a few demonic states he can't control. He wears a cross pendant to keep it from happening. If it were to be taken off or break, the demonic side would come out almost immediately.
