Description
A four way duel against ~wandering-ronin , ~AsianEyes442 , and *KawaiiSonicChao .It's a pinup duel, set to the theme of "corrupt your character." We had to imagine what would happen if our character had somehow snapped and become a warped and corrupted version of themselves. A good theme for a duel around halloween!
Zeta is an interesting character to use for this, because with the kind of person she is I don't see even a corrupted version of her going off on a killing spree or something similar. In this picture, Zeta is corrupted by an obsession. After being struck by lightning and miraculously surviving, Zeta becomes obsessed with electricity and the feel of it coursing through her body, her normal fear of pain becoming skewed into something akin to masochism. A corrupted Zeta hurts only herself.
It's all non-canon of course; just some fun for halloween.
I picked the theme of electricity mainly because it was a cool shoutout to her ~I-D-D counterpart, who has power over electromagnetism. When connected to a current, the copper endoskeleton of SDL Zeta's prosthetics can have much the same effect. I threw in ~I-D-D Zeta's cut as well. Cause it looks cool.
(And this is totally physically possible. Just not likely.)

Holy grapes of wrath, Yami. This is amazing. I can totally see what you were going for here, and you executed it perfectly. That was a brilliant maneuver, how you envisioned a 'corrupted' Zeta - I agree, it is hard to image Zeta snapping to the point of mass-murdering people.
Brilliant entry for a very clever Halloween duel idea! Hope you win!

I was really excited about this duel because I knew I would have to get creative and think outside the box a bit, just because of who my character was. So it was quite fun.
I hope so too, but either way it was fun to draw.

Yes. My god I love electricity, which is probably apparent if you ever look in my gallery. But god!! This is amazing!! I mean I've always loved your work but like this intesifies that admiration for you, not only because you drew this so awesomely but because it connects to my interests.
Poor Zeta, she should be glad that bolt didn't stop her heart. I like the details, like her hair going towards the lightning and the electricity being shown rippling across her body.

I've always had a bit of an obsession with electricity as well. I love thunderstorms, and when I was a kid I used to build little circuits out of lightbulbs and batteries and leave one side disconnected so I could touch the wires to things and see what conducted electricity enough to light up the bulb. (My tongue did not. ) That's cool that you're into that kind of stuff too. I guess you must be, considering Emily and all her cool powers.
Yeah, what with the current going straight across her chest, she must be made of some pretty strong stuff.

Only Zeta would survive being struck by lightning while standing in a pool of water while she has metal in her arms.
Only. Zeta. Can. This turned out just as epic as I thought it would be. The lightning looks AWESOME, and I believe you've just made a new Zetaface.
HIGH FIVES FOR JOO!
