Description There's a lot behind this fellow's creation, he's so much FUN~

Yes, fellow, he is not a flat-chested girl, but a crossdressing, androgynous, shapeshifting male. The tattoos on his face are the only things that remain the same, but this drawing depicts his favored form.

There are so many stories about "Nature Spirits" from rivers, or trees or Mountains... I wanted an urban version of that, so, along came Raphael... he changes his last name with his form, but it always begins with an "S".

Meet the first ever Italian "Playground Spirit"... because so many amazing things happen to people of all ages on playgrounds, I think they have their own life just like any forest or lake. So, I had Loki Jasper make him a flesh body from clay and silt (ala Hopi myths), and put the fun-loving immortal to work taking care of my city, tsuDAKI. He is the "RaViNG KiNG" alluded to in my earlier song. He chose the name Raphael, because of freaquent college art classes held in his park.

This has been my best lineart so far, I'm so glad my sister helped break my artblock @__@ This next semester in art class, I'm FINALLY going to do a comic book, so if you leave a comment, I would appreciate plot ideas using my original characters, please and thank you ^__^

Awesome glowy effect - gives it a nice warm feeling!
Though, I have no idea as far as plot ideas. I have a hard enough time creating stories for my own OCs, sorry!

In the words of my sister's TV:

THERE IS NO FATE WORSE THAN BEING GAY AND ITALIAN.

LOOK AT RAPH. LOOK AT JACK.
