Description
All designsThese are the designs that going to be in The Count of Monte Rainbow comic . Changes may happen.
•Starlight Glimmer as Jacopo ( A poor smuggler who helps Dantès win his freedom) + Bertuccio (Monte Cristo's steward) - Okay, so there is a reason why I mixed two characters into one and used Starlight for that. First of all, I choose Starlight as Monte Rainbow's steward because of the episode "A Hearth's Warming Tail", where Rainbow Dash used to be Starlight's helper. This episode created a tiny connection between Starlight and Rainbow for me, so I just switched the master and the helper, so Starlight is now Monte Rainbow's helper.
Second, I mixed the characters of Jacopo and Bertuccio because of my own confusion in the book where I thought that Jacopo and Bertuccio are one person (yes, I didn't notice that they have different names. I totally forgot Jacopo's name when Bertuccio appeared) and I was thinking that until I've read the characters list in Wikipedia. It's maybe only my dumbness, or some other readers were confused about that too and they did not realize that these two are completely different characters... Since Jacopo and Bertuccio are both important characters for the story, but Jacopo suddenly dissapears as the story goes on, I decided to mix them up, so this mixture will have more "screen time".
•Ligtning Dust as Lord Wilmore - No information available to not to spoil the impression from the book about this character.
•Indigo Zap as Abbe Busoni - No information available to not to spoil the impression from the book about this character.
Inspired by Assassin-or-Shadow and TorusTheScribe animatics.
The novel 'The count of Monte Cristo' written by: Alexandre Dumas.

I love what you did, I think I need to re-read the novel, because I am nearly about to forget the characters from the novel.

I think no one is able to remember all the characters from there
There is too many of them.

Not quite, it's just two characters from the novel mixed into one, so here will be less confusion about hellish amount of characters.
And yes, she is miss Jacolight^^

Great idea to give Starlight her two different mane styles for different parts of the story
Lord Wildust and Abbé Bindigo have really fitting designs as well.

I never really thought of Betruccio and Jacopo being the same person, and I loved the idea!! I really miss Jacopo in the book(I watched the movie first) Well loved the choices for the characters, can't wait to see them in the comic

I never watch the movie, actually. I was avoiding it due to not get into soilers until I finish reading the novel. In the end I never finished reading it.

Cool. Yeah, from ehat I've read Jacopo and Bertuccio could have been one character. The film adaption did the same thing, so I don't see why not. Looking forward to seeing them all.

Musical kinda did the same thing as well, so there will be no problems. I'll just need to change Betruccio's backstory a little bit^^

Shhh! No one should know...
Btw, I see you used Busoni's design from an illustration from Wikipedia?

I'm not sure it was from Wikipedia, but I looked up how the dress of some abbés looked like The only characters designed after their true appearances are Countess G- and the king
