Description

Yeahhhh so my Mandalorian OC and the other characters revolving around him have taken over all three of my sketchbooks for the past few weeks.  I realized I had enough stuff for a proper art dump, so here ya go!


Basic info about who's who and what's going on:


The story is set during the tail end of the Mandalorian Civil War in which Heln Kadrin (Mando with Black and Gold armor) and his family, including his wife, Rizah (Blue/Green/Orange Mando), fought on the side of Jaster Mereel.  The whole family engaged in the Battle of Korda Six, where all the Kadrins with the exception of Heln were killed.  Rizah got into a heated fight with a Death Watch Mandalorian who managed to wrestle her beskad from her grip and use it to gut her.  She kept fighting until she was pinned down by blasterfire and Heln dragged her to cover, where she asked him to end it with his blaster, knowing she wouldn't survive much longer.  Their three kids were killed almost one right after the other, and Heln, seeing the Civil War as fruitless, left it all together a year later.  He carries around Rizah's beskad and a plate of her shoulder armor and changed his armor colors to Gold, Black, and Grey following Korda Six.  His mission--besides acting as a "freelance lawman"--is to hunt down the Death Watch Mandalorians who robbed him of his family.  He's loyal to a fault; if someone he trusted betrayed him, he'd probably never forgive them.  Heln is all for adopting beings who seem like they need a family/place to belong (he's a family man at heart, warrior second), but resists doing so while on his "Revenge Quest" since he doesn't want to bring any kids into his mess, though he's tested when he meets Fia Creed.


Pantoran Gray Jedi Savell Arvorysk left the Jedi Order to pursue justice on her own after getting fed up with all their legalism and rules, believing she could do good in the galaxy without the Order breathing down her neck or chiding her for her unorthodox ways.  She and Heln met following a dogfight in which they shot each other down on a barely colonized moon and resumed fighting face to face.  Heln eventually called for a truce the next day after they retreated to lick their wounds, stating that they had to work together to get offworld unless they wanted to freeze to death in the wilderness.  The two struck up a partnership as "Lone Ranger" type figures, going about the Outer Rim and worlds that the Jedi and Republic didn't frequent to mete out aide to those who needed it. (They also had a very brief romance that fell apart due to them not being compatible...things were weird for a while afterwards...)  She is skilled in the use of Force Lighting, which she uses in combat but also for petty things like frying a restraining bolt off a droid or jump-starting a speeder.  She has a frosty demeanor and will kill without hesitation. 


Fia Creed is a teenaged delinquient who Heln met while on a backwater world and forcibly adopted once he found out she was a hobo orphan.  Fia's mother left her father when she was little (he was Terrible) and raised the girl on her own.  Her mother also had a Spice addiction and died when Fia was fifteen, leaving Fia to fend for herself until Heln came across her.  She is very self sufficient and ran away from Heln and Savell's ship on multiple occasions since she's a bit scared of being in a "real" family.  She also knows a lot of Mandalorian swear words that Heln is trying to get her to stop spouting.  Anything male, cute, and remotely her age is prime boyfriend/crushing material (she's an aggressive flirt...boys be scared of her).

Clone Wars Era Middle-Aged Fia goes by "Fia Kadrin" and is tough as nails.  She carries on her Buir's mission of being a Protector for those who need her help.  She tries not to swear as much as she did as a teen, but she doesn't have any filters when it comes to everything else as she doesn't care at this point.  She carries Heln's beskad and his shoulder plate to honor her late father.  Fia also knows a lot of pressure points for multiple species and is very good at reading body language and faces.  Thinking she might have a horde of adopted/biological children, still figuring out if her hubby is dead or alive at this point...


Antos Creed (who I named after Antos AKA Demagol from KOTOR) is Fia's father and a Death Watch member who revels in inflicting pain on others and the adrenaline rush of a life-or-death fight.  Antos didn't seem like he had psychological problems when Fia's mother first met him, but they weren't very far from the surface; he's good at masking them to appeal to others.  He wouldn't hesitate to use family/loved ones for his own gains, as everyone else's lives are disposable to him.

The kids by the green Togruta girl are some potential kiddos that Heln might adopt later on and raise in Mando tradition :]

UHHH If you have questions, just feel free to ask!

Love your Mandos- their designs are so nice! And do you use markers to colour them in? It's so smooth

Thanks!!!


Yeah, I didn't plan on going THAT dark with his character until I started doing some research on the time period before the Clone Wars and found out about the Mandalorian Civil Wars and was like, "oh yes, I'll kill off his entire family to set his story going."  I'm a Bad OC Mom. :')


I'm so glad to hear that!  I'm hoping to do something with them all eventually, possibly if I can find an RP around the time their stories take place

Oh, that's extremely relatable, I just can't let any of my kids stay happy

If I thought I could respond in a timely manner I'd offer to make an RP, but, well, I'm replying to this itself 21 days late....
