Sorry for the duplicate post that's going to go up this afternoon, I set it to upload to 3 AM instead of 3 PM and I just wanted to upload my art when a lot of people get off of work or return from school :(

This is the most recent rendition of my newest OC, Benji!

------

Physical descrition:
Benji is a purple housecat with cyan tufts in his ears and yellow eyes. He usually wears a dark blue hoodie with thick yellow drawstrings, and black jeans with holes in the front. He's short and thin, but deceptively fluffy.

------

Abilities: A small percentage of Benji's heritage is infernal in nature. Tapping into his demonic lineage has allowed him to hone the following powers...

Shadow manipulation; Benji can manipulate the shape and intensity of shadows, the extent of which depends on how much light is shed on him. The brighter the light, the weaker his shadow manipulation.

Dark form; Benji can embrace the darkest parts of himself to cover parts of himself in solidified shadows, which he can manipulate the shapes of to enhance parts of his body (sharp talons, tendrils, leg length, etc). This isn't always voluntary, and as more of himself is engulfed in this dark magic, the less control he has of himself.

Inner demon; Benji can surrender himself to his dark form by fully enveloping himself in solid shadow. In this form he is significantly stronger, faster and more effective in hand to hand combat. Almost always involuntary, he cannot control his actions, and he often finds himself struggling to remember the events immediately after the transformation. He sprouts glowing white horns in this form, and his eyes glow intensely in the same color.

I haven't written a well rounded backstory just yet, but I am excited to share Benji with the world! Please feel free to ask questions about him ^^

I don't have a name for this guy yet but he is a bit of a bastard lol. If you would like you can help me name him in the comments ^^


------


Appearance: This man is a tall serpentine hunk of muscle cased in the scales of a coral snake. He has curly golden hair on the top of his head and icy blue eyes.


------

Abilities: He doesn't have much access to dark magic like Benji, but he has some abilities of his own.

Smooth Talker; He is very charismatic, to the point that he can make you react exactly the way he wants. He has used this against Benji to make him appear to be a thief, and proceeded to strip him of his entire friend group.

Venom; His bite can be deadly, but in a very unexpected way. His venom seems to coax the dark side out of you...

Physical Prowess; He is very athletic. He can out run, out fight, out lift and out last Benji if Benji doesn't use his powers. He exercises and trains every day to maintain his body.

Self Proclaimed Ultra Mastermind Intelligence: He has above average planning skills. He pats himself on the back a bit too much for this. Benji noticed this past his Smooth Talk.

He's my stinky little bastard man and I'm gonna beat him up <3. He may or may not be based on someone in my life but hey this is way more constructive than doing nothing with my feelings lol. He's kinda made to be hated ~~and he's made to be hot~~ so he's gonna be a little weird at first. Still, let me know how y'all like him ^^

I really wish I could use my phone for art reliably, I would post so so so much more art :(
