Description
[you can find the line art at [link] go play with it!]This is Victor.
His favourite things are black hook-handled umbrellas, prams, and, above all else, string. His obssession with string has led him to stitching his own skin, giving him the appearance of a rag doll. You could easily coax him with a spool of thread or even a child's toy, such as a yo-yo.
He's been known to snatch human children from their cribs, even though he doesn't have a child of his own to make the switch with; often, these children are left in the wrong houses to cause confusion.
He only speaks to mimic the most recent words of others, in a rather unpleasant shriek. He's perfectly literate.
Victor was shunned from the Unseelie Court for his disturbing behaviour (besides, he's downright cheeky).
His home is little more than a large, complicated tangle of taut black string, arranged just so; the smallest tap on the wrong string could strangle an unwanted guest, or bring a few dead branches down. He can spend hours building and rebuilding this tangle, perfectly content with this chore. Nobody knows where he gets his string, for it is sharp enough to cut flesh, strong enough to hold a bridge, and blacker than Victor's hair. Rumour has it that he makes it himself, using his blood and spit; others say that he filched it from the Woodswitch.
Speaking of filching, he did steal that schoolgirl's skirt.
Height: 5'0"
Age: well into the hundreds

Great picture here too, and i like how you've written a story to it ! Nice touch and makes it a better piece since you feel like you know the character. So next time i see this Victor dude i will think "oh it's that one with the strings and schoolgirl skirt, nice !" instead of just "Oh its that character from that picture i saw"

clunkeh boots. and a red blood-stained-looking X over the left side of his chest? @.@ this is a surrrprriisssse innndddeeeddd...
for some reason i'm associating s'piders with him. i think it's the string. mmhm.
i rather like the 'steal-kid-and-place-in-wrong-house' thing. sounds amusing to say the least.

anything that has to do with strings falls under his ideas of WOW IWANNAPLAYWITHIT !_! so. he considers spiders to be his brothers from anotha motha. plus he likes marionettes and string instruments, on principle
...i think he poked himself when he put that X on his chest...? X__X
and i adore that bit. i mean, how many fearie tales do we hear about changelings and whatnot? too many. victor strikes me as the type with insufficient patience to raise whichever children he snatches. so he'll just cause trouble instead! fweeee~!

i like marionettes....when i was younger i use to have these string-rope-thingys and i was bad for tying them ALL OVER. from closet door to bedpost, to closet door, then around some poor doll and so forth!
...mom use to get mad.
i knoooow. these faerie-things of tales have like...ULTIMATE PATIENCE. putting up with whiny princesses and whatnot.
