"No More Candies For You" by:
"No, no, no. I'm tired."
I was going to submit Little Brother before I submitted this one, but Little Brother has yet to be completed. Besides, I wanted some feedback on this before my home internet is possibly cut off Monday. ^.^;
Now with that said, introducing Morpheus (It's an alias, and I DON'T want to hear anyone mention The Matrix or Sandman, thank you) who I created as a sort of Peter Lorre look-alike while adding elements from Dr. Freudstein (from the Italian horror film House By The Cemetery and one of the scariest movie monsters I've ever seen). Of course elements from Voldo (from the Soul Series) snuck in there as well, but I like how it all came together in the end.
Like the good Dr. Ryan R. Ryan, MD, Morpheus is a "Metafluke". Metaflukes are sort of a "foil" to the "Neo-Children/Felanerol Babies", but unlike the Neo-Children, Metaflukes usually suffer from varying degrees of insanity as well as some kind of disorder(s) to go along with their Metafluke "powahs". Sometimes these disorders help them survive in the Post-Apocalyptic World which they live, sometimes they do not. Either way, Metaflukes are extremely rare, but also extremely powerful.
As for Morpheus' abilities/disorders, he is narcoleptic. If he goes "Night Night" in the heat of battle, ecto-plasmic entities will seep out of his body and fight in his place all the while keeping his unconscious body suspended upright (and levitating). He can also contort his body into unnatural positions (a la Volooooodo! Sans Floor-Humping!) and has long retractable claws not dissimilar to those of a three-toed Sloth.
Weapons wise, Morpheus' weapons of choice (claws aside) are thin threads which he keeps housed in the metal casings on his knuckles. He can release these via telekinesis and wrap them around opponents, either shooting high volts of electricity into them or tightening the wires around them until they are literally severed to pieces.
On a sad note, Morpheus cannot regenerate like other Metaflukes (such as Mr Physical Idiosyncrasy Dr. Ryan). In the event that he is injured, He instead has to sew himself back together with his own thread. He also moves about 10% slower than some of my other characters (which is about 990% slower than BEO). Poor baby.

Now that you mention it, I remember the Warner Bros. cartoons and I recognize Peter Lorre. Have you seen the german movie "M"? We analysed it in class. He is amazing in it.
I recently checked his profile on imdb.com. OMFG I didn`t know that he has done so many movies.

Yeah "Hollywood Steps Out" is on e Youtube too. It has Peter Lorre (amongst many others) watching Sally Rand dance naked with a giant bubble.
I haven't seen "M" all the way through sadly. I need to try and find it.

I got it but without subtitles iirc. Or do you watch movies just with german language?
Because it`s such an old movie the sound isn`t that good and some actors are mumbling like hell while speaking berlin dialect.

HotaruThodt In reply to pink-gizzy [2010-05-11 03:26:42 +0000 UTC]
I do subtitled even if the movie is in English. People find it odd that I do, but I used to date a guy who was partly deaf and I picked up on turning on the TV's closed-captioning because of it. Even if its a new movie with clear sound I'll turn on subtitles. ^.^;

He's pretty sweet. Love the detail on his outfit.
Poor baby having to sew himself together again.
Morpheus was the god of dreams, and he's narcoleptic. Awesome.

Some dangerous beasts are cute while sleeping. Until they wake up... or worse, that you wake them up...

Well, Morpheus won't hurt me since I work in Hel--er...I mean, I'm his creator.

Frobiaz In reply to HotaruThodt [2010-04-20 02:36:54 +0000 UTC]
I see...
Ever seen a movie where the "beast" became aware that they don't need their creator because he/she overpowers him/her? You must have, since you must have watched more horror flicks and movies that I watched girl movies. What happens then?
I prefer to stay away. And being sure he doesn't know I exist. I don't think this Morpheus will give be good dreams neither a... Red Pill.
Still nice work you've done on him. You keep improving. And gosh you seems liking leather as much as I like hearing sport engines rumbles. And I like hearing a sport engine roaring.

HotaruThodt In reply to Frobiaz [2010-04-20 02:46:21 +0000 UTC]
No Matrix talk! >.<; This Morpheus was named after the Greek Myth as well as Morphine, which Peter Lorre (whom Morpheus here is based on) took for his gallbladder problems.
And no I don't think I've seen that movie. ^.^;
I loves me some leather. Leather is sexy. Demons should be sexy. It helps move along the temptations much easier...even if Morpheus isn't technically a demon. He's a mutant...like his "Brother" Dr. Ryan. ^.^;

Thank you, for reasons that will be explained later, I gave him claws similar to those of a three-toed Sloth.
I normally think of The Raven (since that was the first I ever remember seeing him in) and all those old Looney Tune/Merry Melodies cartoons that parodied him. I course I can't deny M had some influence in this deign, such as one of his themesongs at the bottom of the description (I'm sure you'll be able to pick out which one).

Amazing work on the suit !! He is narcoleptic ? You draw his eyes in a very good way to show that ! I laughed with your final "poor baby"" ^^

HotaruThodt In reply to Feliane [2010-04-17 21:24:59 +0000 UTC]
Thank you. I didn't just draw his eyes like that to portray his narcolepsy, but his eyes are draw like that because he's kind of a caricature of actor Peter Lorre.
He is a poor baby. He'll probably never be able to have a relationship because he'll randomly fall asleep. ^.^;

Ah OK for Peter Lorre, but it fits too to narcolepsy Do not laugh but I just realize now the link between sleeping and the name Morpheus !! (perhaps because in French it is MorphΓ©e) Shame on me... I need holidays...

eh heh....funny note... this dude looks like me XD seriouse Jazz has hat hair cut right now that my office hair XD .. oop no mine parts on the other side, but we have the same saggy baggy eyes XD
I find him rather attractive (narcistic aint I XD ) but then I have a thing so spaces out patched up fellows XD
love everything here.
my only comment would be I feel his gas mask is alittle too plain needs some spicing up. and find some silver desighn to go allong the tops of his gloves, codpiece and vest...something sloth related, I feel his outfit needs a touch more pizzazz it looks loverly as is, the only spot that felt lacking was the glove tops and I thought mmmmh those needs studs on...then I was all NO silver filigree ^o^ EVERYWHERE! XD
but eitherway I LIIIIIIKE ^o^

Ah, I see what you mean about the glovies, although I think Grey would work alike better for the glovie tops. We want his outfit to look lazy and not too fancy. His "Brother" Craven will look much fancier...being Greed and All. I want Morpheus to look so lazy that he forgot to make his outfit fancy.
He is a cute little thing, isn't he (and Jazz is a cutey!), but then again Peter Lorre was a cute little thing too (Yes, I am weird), so it makes sense.
He does have large eyes like you though...large baggy eyeballs. >.>;

HotaruThodt In reply to IvoryFool [2010-04-17 09:44:06 +0000 UTC]
Well, his "Past" version is a tad fancier being all demonic and all, just like other Sins..both our inner 6-years old will be getting shinies. Oh, and I'm thinking of giving hm some heavy-ass uber gothic footwear to slow him down a bit?
I've been meaning to ask. Would it be possibly to put some armour on Joshua's arms (like Jax from Mortal Kombat) since he's insisting on fighting and all that stoof? I've been meaning to ask for days. XD
Yeah, He needed some hauntingly tired looking eyes to pull off the Peter Lorre look. I just hope that, if I EVER get to RP him, I'll be able to convey the Peter Lorre voice in my Rp replies.
Well, I have dark baggy eyes too. You're are really no worse than mine actually. >.>;

Of course they're fun to draw. I can make them all uber-goth and some...some SKULLs! ^O^
I'd been meaning to ask you about some cybernetic arm arms for him for days since well, I can't really see DCI Craig taking a gun to Megiddo, and we already decided Miniel would have a magickal 'growing' staff.
Oh, how tell would you say Morpheus is by looking at this pic? I can't decide on a height for him yet, although it's clear he's a bit taller than Peter Lorre. >.>;
Awww, but I thought you though my Cockney was cute. At least I don't Rp Ryan with an accent, I just put Finnish expletives in there instead. >.O;
My mom has some pretty epic bags herself. She just covers them up with foundation...and here's show up REALLY badly in photos. I have some pics I got off my camera to prove it too. >.>;
