I have another question...when you say she is wiped out after summoning pooka, is she wiped out right after he takes over, or is it after he is done and leaves her body?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's after Pooka has finished wrecking havock and decides to leave Sheri's body - it leaves her momentarily physically drained/weakened for between 30-60 seconds...
How far have you got with your artwork for the tourney by the way? I can't wait to see what ideas you've come up with...

Does pooka call sheri sheri or shezza?
I have just been sketching out stuff so far...I just started over again after realizing that I had 30 pages sketched out...I am not doing 30 pages...OTL
Currently I have about 10 done, and it shouldn't get too much longer.
Why must I take so long with my storytelling? I was amazed at these people who had 1 or 2 page auditions. O.o
How far are you? I can't wait to see yours either!

Pooka calls Sheri a number of names depending on how he's talking or the subject - but the most common ones in his vocabulary are "Sheri", "kid" and "girl".
I've decided to be a COMPLETE lunatic (you'll laugh at this) and try to actually make an animated cartoon out of mine with VERY limited resources, just for the challenge and to see if I can do it in time for the deadline. Myself and a mate of mine have both done the voice acting for the various parts - but the way things went with that - I think the blooper reel is going to be 3 or 4 times longer than the movie itself! The written script itself is 6 pages long and I've only managed the very basic animation (without FX, titles & credits - which I add later) up to the top part of page 3 of the script - so it's going to be nail-bitingly close as to whether I manage to get it finished in time for the deadline!!!
*sigh!* I just KNEW I should have damn well stuck to DRAWING my entry...

Oh my. O__o
And I thought I had my hands full with a flash comic.
I wish you luck.
I actually managed to get my entry down to 14 pages. XD

Thanks, that was very helpful. ^^
Off to brainstorm now. @.@
(Does she already know Dr. Maxwell? From before the tourney?)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sheri only knows Dr. Maxwell from Willow Hill, but she can tell exactly what Dr. Maxwell's up to from a mile away thanks to Pooka (whose intuition on these things is usually spot on!)...not to mention, Sheri can't stand people who use "mind games" or "psychological torture" on other people for their own perverse pleasure or gain.

Alright, I was just wondering. ^^
If you have any questions about KEnny, feel free to ask. :3

Thanks! 👍: 0 ⏩: 1
1. What's the thing that Kenny REALLY hates the most?
2. Because his parents took him to the asylum does he have a distrust of adults who he believes think in similar ways to his parents - and if so what kind of ways of his parents bother him? (eg: the fact they don't believe in Cristan the mage? The fact they 'don't understand' him? Or perhaps the fact that they've sent him to Willow Hill 'for his own good'?).
3. Kenny is still a kid - Dr. Maxwell loves kids despite being cruel & twisted towards his adult patients. Do you think Kenny & Dr. Maxwell would get on well together? If so - what do you think they would have in common together that would allow them to get along with each other?
4. What do you think Kenny will make of Sheri? And - if Kenny can see him - Pooka?
5. What do you think Cristan would make of Sheri - and also Pooka? Most 'normal'people (except those with the 'gift'
6. Cristan is a Fire Mage of some description - but what century and place does he originate from? My guess going off the way he is dressed is that he may be based on a celtic breed of Mage (eg: Irish, Welsh, Scottish) or possibly even Olde English?
As odd as these questions may seem your answers to them will be gratefully received, kid! Thanks again..
1: Kenny hates being in potentially dangerous situations...Which to him, classifies just about anything. I think the thing he hates most is when people don't believe him and call him crazy.
2: Well, his mom and dad are divorced, and he and his little sister both live with their father...He doesn't have a good relationship with his mother, but he has a pretty average relationship with his father. He might act like he hates him(not unlike most teenagers), but he doesn't really believe that his father was trying to hurt him, and he(his father) actually felt that sending him to the asylum would be good for him.
His mother made him hate people similar to her...Her being what Kenny and maybe a few other people would refer to as "a cheating whore." So he typically distrusts people who dress or act in a way that would be considered slutty.
3: Dr. Maxwell would probably scare the shit out of Kenny, but Kenny wouldn't outright try to attack him unless Dr. Maxwell tried to hurt him first. I suppose if Maxwell did something to earn Kenny's trust, they could get along as well as Kenny can get along with any stranger.
4: He'd be a little bit distrusting of her, and probably eye that scar under her eye...But she's one of the less-fright inducing people at the asylum, and he'd probably be grateful to see a normal looking person in the midst of everything going on. Pooka would probably induce an"OMFGWTHISTHAT" response.
5: Cristan isn't too judgmental, and he's seen stranger things than pooka. Though he might make Kenny ask if Pooka is a familiar/if Sheri is a mage/witch. I think Cristan would be able to see Pooka, but Kenny might not until Cristan possesses him, as there isn't technically any magic inside Kenny's body until Cristan takes over(and draws it from his real body elsewhere.), so if Pooka or Sheri can "sense" magical energy, they wouldn't be able to feel him there until Cristan takes over.
6: I'm actually doing my own thing with Mages...None of my characters live in this dimension, so he doesn't come from any of those places. He would technically live in present day, he's not a spirit from some long-dead mage, he's actually still alive...He's just had some magic related accident and for whatever reason ended up in Kenny's body.
I hope that helps. xD

Brilliant - thank you so very much!

Glad you found it helpful, hopefully it didn't mess up any previous ideas. xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No - it works pretty good for me - that's what "imagination" is for...
Ps: I can't wait to see your entry and storyline ideas...good luck in the tourney, kid!

Thanks, I've started sketching it out already...
But I'm an idiot, so It's already 13 pages long, and I'm not at the fight yet. >_>
But I don't want to rush it, so I can't shorten it any. ;__;

Hey there, I was wondering if you could tell me a bit about her personality? You don't really cover it at all on the ref.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ok, sure...here goes...
Sheri is an easy-going lady who likes her own company (and Pooka's) and generally keeps herself to herself, although if need be she can and will communicate with people without any problems whatsoever (she's a freelance journalist/writer & artist, and to do that she has to be able to communicate with people from all walks of life). She usually just takes things as they come (being the daughter of a witch demons & the supernatural don't faze her at all - she's seen her fair share of that). She might look like a slip of a woman - but she's deceptively strong for her size/stature. She can't stand bullies (she will usually intervene and stand up for whoever is being bullied)and she absolutely detests anyone that tries to use "mind-games" or "psychological torture" on people (one person she can't stand because of this is Dr. Jonathan Maxwell [link] (who just happens to be a side character in the nursery - how good is that, eh?). She loves animals (better than humans in fact), music (Especially Classical, Jazz & Blues - she can play a few instruments too - eg: piano/clarinet/flute), and there is a spirit of grim determination about her - if she sets off to start a task she will usually finish said task, one way or another. Pooka has been her best friend & confidante from childhood, despite the odd disagreement between them, they compliment each other's personalities (where one is weak - the other is strong). Sheri & Pooka have a great relationship & are both very protective of each other.
Phew - hope this helps?
Does that help?

What does she look like when pooka takes over? o3o
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Try to imagine Shelly's body frame merged with Pooka. So you have the basic female frame but completely black with pookas demonic face surrounded by a feiry red aura of flames...
Does Kenny stay the same when his Mage intervenes - or does he change too?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Alright, thanks :3
Does she still have her clothes, or is it all black? o3o
Kenny's eye turn pale green like Cristan's but other than that there's no difference in appearance. :3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It's just all black - a demonic humanoid/female - no clothes - although her hair (also black) is apparrent, as are pookas catlike pointed ears.
Thanks for the update, kid!

Yay for her hair being visible, I can't draw bald things. xD
I just practiced drawing her a little bit, I'm going to submit it in a minute.
