Description Nestly: Finally! Freaking reference sheets take forever. DB

This be Ephidell, my main Phashu character. Now you can finally know more about him! 8D Hoo-hah.

-----

-Extra Info I bet’cha didn’t know-

-Ephidell may be over a century old, but he still holds his immature mortal self at times. He likes Batman for crying out loud.
-Ephidell hates water and getting wet. It’s not a paranoia or a phobia, but he just rather despises it. The problem possibly leads back to his death in which he drowned.
-Ephidell isn’t materialistic at all. He doesn’t care to keep any personal possessions hanging around.
-Ephidell is... ‘old fashioned’. The past 10 years he’s cared less for the development of society and hasn’t bothered with hardly any new technology. This causes an obvious frustration in dealing with new things.
-Ephidell is extremely strong and fast, and isn’t afraid to cause pain and death when necessary.
-Again... Ephidell’s technically a virgin. Ha ha. He got close though.

-Ephidell is a species of vampire called Phashu. Learn more about Phashu here: [link]

What's the bare minimum amount of blood he has to consume every day in order to survive? Because if he chooses a mortal for a mate (assuming he ever chosses a mate) then maybe he could feed on her exclusively.

I dunno Ephidell is really bad and sometimes only goes off like a pint a week at times.

And lol, yeah he tried that. It didn't end so well.

Intersting to think about though, yes? I know that if I fell in love with a vampire of any kind, i would try to convince her to feed on me exclusively. That is, provided we could both survive that way...

RichTheWolf257 In reply to Nestly [2012-09-01 01:01:36 +0000 UTC]

Well, provided the vampire doesn't need a whole lot of blood to survive, I imagine not much could go wrong. Its all a matter of restraint, the way I see it. On the other hand, there's just something ...sexual... about the whole idea I think.

Nestly In reply to RichTheWolf257 [2012-09-01 01:54:58 +0000 UTC]

It depends on the vampire. My species of vampire in particular doesn't normally have a sex drive, and they're pretty much punished if they do fall for a mortal-- their urges turn into something gruesome and it pretty much turns into a psychotic need to eat their heart. I wrote a story about Ephidell's experience here: [link]

And lol your not the only one, which is why the majority of vampire stories are about a human falling in love with a vampire these days, and it's gotten veeeery old. We all know what's going to end up happening eventually. XD

You made a reference sheet! Yaaaays! I've only seen ephiell use only like...three experessions of his 6. i guess when you die youu lose expressieness too huh? O_o ok forget i ever said that. ya. >_<

ooh ooh i have a question! where'd you get eppy's name from? did you look at him and go, "your ephidell and your gonna be a phasu wasuwasu or whatever." or did you get his name from somehwhere else?

Nestly In reply to Okomotowoof [2008-11-10 19:56:55 +0000 UTC]

Nestly: Ephidell has more expressions than that, I've just never drawn him as such. xD Poo on me for always making him look like some blood-thirsty lunatic.

Uhhh, actually my friend came up with it! :3 I was actually trying to think up a vampire name for over a month before she suggested it to me. I think she got it from a character on the game, Fire Emblem.

First o' all, this gains 10293873298374 points of awesome awesomeness for being awesome and containing Ephidell. *facepalmcuziknowimadork*

I am hearting the expressions. I want to marry the one where he looks all happy like. XD

And... THE GREEN EYES. ;A; THEY'RE SO VIVIDLY GREEEEEEEN. *hugs the screen* It isn't green like the dirty green, it's green like grass is. It's so purty.

The bullet holes though. Urgh. They disturb me to no end. Just... EWW. *inches away from screen now* I love it all but the bullet holes. XD

Keep up the awesomeness!

aiwdjoaiwdeephidellll. *licks screen*

Where to start, where to start... first of all, wow, reference sheet. xD I agree those take forever. I myself usually don't bother to finish them, so I must congratulate you on making one. It's very informative and I like the overall style you used. Plus, it has Ephidell in it, so that's like +3984297 awsome points.

All the pictures are absolutely loverly... ~<3 I love the expressions. It's fun to see Ephidell make all those faces (especially the sad one xD ). Oh, and I like the custom made gloves. The inner side of the hand view looks very realistic. o:

It sure is nice to get to know more about Ephy. Now I demand a Canyon reference sheet. 8D
Keep up the gorgeous work!

Thanks Vera. ;3; You do great reference sheets! Jeebers, yours make me jealous. XD I remember how detailed and interesting yours were, hehe.

8D Awesome points!

Yeah. XD The sad one is just him being a pouty moron. He actually does that sometimes to Mhirou just to be ridiculous and provoke a reaction. He's a dork.
Thanks! I'm glad you noticed that. I thought it might give the gloves some depth.

Ohmygosh yes. xD I needa make one for Canyon, haha. Thanks so much Vera!

I have a question.
A stupid question. Well, no question is stupid, right?

-shuffles feet-

What's a Phashu? I know it's technically a vampire, right?
But is it like, something you made up or got from a book or something? I'd love to know more about the race, if you don't mind explaining to me.

It's my own breed of vampire. I made up everything on them with inspiration from various other vampire stories. The explanation is a bit complicated though. You can read all about it here if you want! :3 [link]

AAAHHHH So much Ephidell goodness! <3

I already saw most of the pictures on the top XD I like the...diamondy color pallet though.

Aww. He likes Mhirou. Like the world didn't already know ;D
I WONDER IF MHIROU LIKES HIM BACK.
I like that blood-comparison picture you made too 8D Interesting. He's all yellow like the first picture you drew of him! 8D Mhirou's hair looks crappy enough when she doesn't dye it. I bet she'd really look awful if she didn't drink blood either XD

I like the palms on the gloves. I SEE THAT TEXTURE, THOUGH D8<
....HAH. Ephidell wears those guy socks with the grey tips. Why are men's socks like that? I never understood that. And that kangaroo pocket in his shirt must be where he keeps all the crap he keeps pulling out of his sleeves! 8D Mystery solved!

Bah. I SHOULD make one for Mhirou. Just the whole art block thing. I'll try to lay it out so I know what I'm doing instead of just wasting my time XD
Stupid spots D8< They get in the way of everything but it doesn't look like her unless I put them on. Aaaah.

Anywho, congrats on finally finishing this. <3

Diamond shapes seem to suit him, heh heh.

Yeah really. XD But she must be something special to be put in his like section. N'aww. FEEL LOVED MHIROU.

Yeah it's so funny all the different colors you get with these Phashu.. Between the dyed hair and blood intake, haha.

WTF IS WRONG WITH TEXTURE? And actually.. SAI doesn't have any textures anymore. I did those by scratch. So BAM.

I dunno. xD Ephidell doesn't care what he wears underneath. He probably just grabs the first kinda socks he sees.

AND YEP! 8D That's what I always imagined. XD Now you know! Ephidell's bottomless sleeves actually make sense.

I CAN ALWAYS HELP YOU IF YOU JUST ASK. 8(
Even if it's just to help layout things and stuff. :3

Other people who said things are right, you have improved greatly. I love the tail on his front sketch. But the hair is kind of poofy, is it supposed to be?

Just kind of a question. What exactly do you mean by "fledgelings" and "master"? I don't really understand the whole Phashu plot, but then I don't think I could because I'm not a part of it. >w>

Nestly: Thanks. XD I'm glad to hear it.

I'm actually dissatisfied with the full body front image now, but yeah, he never brushes his hair. X3 It's suppose to be all over the place.

You don't have to be a part of it to understand it. XD Fledglings are characters he's created into Phashu. He's the 'master' of such characters.
