((warning you now: ASK AND YOU SHALL RECEIVE!  Have everything I know about the world I've created around this character, as well as my own jumbled thoughts as I re-work it and think about it more))  If you want me to write this out in graph form or something (prezi? I don't know. xD) to make it easier to understand I can.  It's in jumbled thoughts a bit! :'D

I WILL DRAW HA MORE! ; u ;/  I LOVE HIM HE"S SO PRETTY.
oh my God, I miss talking to all my friends about my OCs! D':  Those were some of the best days of my life, I miss high school.  Umm, basically he's like a "God" sort of thing.  I'm not sure if he is the "creator" of matter or just a representation, but there's him, his sister Ka, and their brother Ba. (pardon me if I mix up Ka and Ba - I just realized I've had them backwards!)  They get their names from Ancient Egypt concepts of the human body and soul.  The "Ha" is the human body, therefore he is the representation of matter and mass.  "Ka" is the idea of "vital essence" - energy, basically - what separates the living from the dead.  In this way she represents the sort of "energy" of the world.  I like to think of her as representing electricity, in a way, since atoms (or electrons rather) are the reason things happen (chemical reactions and what-not).  Lastly is "Ba" which is basically the concept of personality.  What makes you "you".
Relating to atoms, instead of creators I thought maybe they could be sort of.. spirits that created the earth, in a sense.  Since Ha is mass it makes sense that he could be the Protons of an atom, and obviously Ha is the electrons.  Ba could be the neutrons since neutrons don't really have a known use (as far as I know.. e___e note to self: research) and they make up an atom which is literally the base of everything.  So they're KIND OF Gods but not in the sense that they're worshipped or rule over anything, just in the sense that they created the Earth, basically.  Or maybe Ha was the planets, Ka was the sun and Ba was the rest of space - the emptiness, and one day the were like "yo, let's team up and make life" and BOOM. *thinking out loud - :'D sorry!*
But yeah, that's basically how that works. C:  ("basically")

(I am going to start my own religion call Hakaba, based on this idea.   Accent on the "KA" because Ka is energy - GEDDIT?  GET IT?  HaKAba?  I kill me! :'D)

Another fun fact: I also like to represent them with the elements, or with land/water/sky.  Land/earth - Ha, Water/Fire - Ka, and Sky/air - Ba.  I kind of want Ha and Ka to have a child to represent water since it's sort of it's own thing entirely in the elements, and Ka is better represented by fire and electricity than by water.  Water can be furious, but the pure energy of lightning and fire represent her better.  Oooh!  Maybe Ha and Ka worked together at first and together they created water and because of that they were able to create life (because life needs water, as far as scientists know), and then Ba came along and they were able to make organisms.  At first they were simple organisms as they all learned how to work together, but eventually they could create more diverse and solid life forms (y'know, after BILLIONS OF YEARS) that were capable of more intricate though processes.
MY MIND IS A FLUSTER.  THE OBSESSION WILL BEGIN ANEW.  I LOVE THIS CHARACTER/SCENARIO/STORY/WORLD/WHATEVER I HAVE CREATED.  IT WILL BE MY BABY.

MOVING ON (because I realized you wrote more than just "Why isn't he a demon?")
I'm glad you enjoy this drawing so much!   Freaking math class, man.  Apparently it makes me draw well? xD
Oh, and his hands and feet are kind of like... well, matter, basically.  It's like pure matter - without the energy from Ka that makes up human matter, I guess - but it moves like a regular limb for him because he.. IS matter (or he controls it, whichever.  Like I said, details are sketchy, and it's been a while~)
Of course, the black specks that come off his hands and legs are parts of matter too because it's held loosely in place, if that makes sense.  I like to think he shapes his limbs into different limbs, like praying mantis hands, or claws, or whatever, just because he can.  I'm also playing with the idea that he can "shapeshift" but at the same time I'm not sure.  Maybe he's not very good at it, or can only do certain things, because he would technically be formless (well, by "formless" I mean he'd be a blob of matter with no heads or tails) and if you had to learn how to sculpt your own body then it'd be hard and take some work.  I mean he spent a lot of time "crafting" creatures with Ka and Ba so he couldn't work on it then, so when they watched their little babies evolve over millions of years maybe they tried to take on shapes of their own which is why he is presented here in a half-ass human form.  The skull-like markings are his own thing because he likes them. :'D

Which Oooh reminds me that I also compare them with the human body, where Ha is the skeletal system (aka, structure), Ka is the nervous system (aka, energy) and Ba is the personality/mind of the being.  And I just got to thinking maybe the representation of water, ie the child of Ha and Ka, could be Ib, which is the heart in Ancient Egypt and was thought to create emotions.  And well, we need a heart to live but also water is the key to life, the basis of life so it makes a good representation in a way.  Also, in Ancient Egypt the heart was the only physical part of the body that pertains to the afterlife, really.  Like, they're the shadow, and there's Ha, obviously, but Ha is the BODY not the soul.  So in a way the heart connects the two, which is why it makes a good child!  This, of course, is making me think about Ba and I'm wondering if he came before or /as a result of/ Ib.  Because emotions sort of shape your personality, don't they?  Or vice versa.. because he could have come before and was just anti social but when he saw little Ib he was all like "asdfjk fine I will join you as you try to create life!" and that's how the world was created!

Seriously though it's 2:00am and I feel sick and need to go to bed but I've been so excited and into writing this all down that I HAD to finish it before I could sleep!   OKAY THANKS FOR LISTENING BYE.

Whoahhh, SCIENCE MUCH? O___O But I gotta say, I really love that whole idea... being Gods but not in a traditional 'ruling over' something sort of way. That's very cool and intriguing.

IT'S CUTE TO SEE YOU GET EXCITED OVER YOUR OWN IDEAS (; AND YOU HAVE TOO MANY BABIES ALREADY [; I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO SAY, BUT AGAIN, I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU GET YOUR IDEAS. IT'S SO DEEP AND INTRICATE.

Personally, I like his design as is and I think it would be a little much, perhaps, if he shape-shifted, too? I don't know, that's coming from Queen Simplicity over here who likes to keep things less confusing and just... plain and simple x3 So it's totally up to you. I also may be a little baised because I like his design so much that I don't want you changing it all the time and shtuff? x3 Maybehh... but as I said, it's up to you (: You and your little mind-constantly developing all these ideas and further expanding on them. I don't know how you do ittt. Anyway.

OMG. Just when I think you can't make your characters any more deep and interconnected, YOU DO JUST THAT O__o Gawd, that's such a neat idea. It all seems to fit so perfectly, and yet, look how much explaining you have to do for someone to understand the complexity of these characters. I really dig this little story of yours [; You seem to have it pretty much planned out.

I'm glad you enjoy talking about your characters so much. Maybe I'll have to phone you up one of these days and just ask you to talk about your OCs hehehee.. but then again, you can't do that when you're multitasking, can you? D: I don't know. We'll see. I'm just happy that you're happy that you talk about your OCs. I NEED TO INSPIRE YOU AND BRING BACK THE SPARK OF YOUR CHARACTERS D: I love all your characters and designs and I honestly miss 'em and miss hearing about them because they're so detailed and it's pretty amazing the way you create these worlds and stories about them. (: I don't have any characters that are NEARLY as deep as yours. Mine are just there to look cute and serve as my experiments mwhahah x3 N'awww~ But still. It's amazing how you keep your characters apart, as well. [; They're all so unique and special, and yet, most people don't get to understand the genious behind your charachters and drawings of them... D:

BUT ANYWAY. THANK YOU FOR WRITING SO MUCH O__O I think it would have been more fun for you to explain it in person (with all your cute little faces you make and how you get super excited when you try to explain things when you talk), but we can talk about your OCs another day [: There's plenty of time ^^ And with that, I shall say no more. I'm keeping this as short as possible for you xD Kay, goodnight my dear (: *huggles*

:'D I'm glad you like it!!

Okay, I'll leave it as is.  I'll just say, maybe, that the matter around his arms and legs isn't as tight, or something.  A minor excuse for an aesthetic physical trait. :'D

Thank you!
I'm gonna try and write about them and draw them more. C:  I've even started sketching in class again.  As opposed to ... whatever I used to do?  (and I mean sketch when there's nothing else to do - not just not pay attention and sketch!  o u o / just saying!)

I'll be okay.    Yay thank you again for reading that all!
