Meet Violante Malena, my child, OC for a RWBY role campaign. She is a lizard Faunus from Vacuo, likes hitting on pretty women, loves travelling and trying the local dishes, and hates racism and bread. Inspiration for this character came from the legend of the lizard of La Malena, AKA lizard of Jaén, a local legend from a city in the south of Spain. The lizard of Jaén was a huge monster that ate people's cows and sheep until someone got it killed. It's not clear who and how they did it: some say it was a shepard who fed it bread with gunpowder, other say the shepard hid gunpowder inside the carcass of a sheep, and others say it was a knight with his spear. Either way, they all agree on the lizard exploding in the end xDDDDD So Violante's semblance consists on making objects explode and her weapon is a spear that can turn into a whip. Now, let's see the details of this reference:

a) Front full view

b) Lateral view

c) Back view with detail of her tattoo (c2)

d) Detail of her emblem

e) Weapon of choice: a spear that can turn into a whip (e2), it can also be folded in two (that's how she usually carries it when she's not fighting)

f) Some details of the default outfit, including the belt, boots (f2) and top (f3). Most of her tops are backless, for obvious reasons.

g) Detail of the head, make-up and hairstyle. She always wears make-up: a purple shade over her eyes and vivid red lips.

h) Schematics of how her spines move according to her humour:

h1) Low spirits, sadness, tiredness, sickness, spines go down

h2) High spirits, she's inspired, happy, or hitting on someone, spines go up

h3) When she is tense, or hostile, or feeling unwelcome, or wants someone else to feel unwelcome, spines go up and to the sides as if she's trying to look bigger and scarier.

i) Colours used. Hope the scanner and the screen doesn't mess this up. Anyway, her colour is violet, so it's basically purples, violets, pinks and some gold and white for accents.
