Hey patrons,
I like to think I come here every once in a while to throw meat (content) to a voracious pack of lions (you), but this is just a fantasy I have. The reality is that it's more like I throw half of a loaf of bread (content, bad) into a pit with a sickly orphan (you) inside it. And then you look at the half loaf of bread and then up at me with big sad eyes. And I say "I will be back again in a month."
BUT
HERE'S SOMETHING FUN.
This is a pitch for a Webtoon that never really made it off the ground because the story doesn't have a clear direction. If this does come to fruition, it'll probably be pretty different from how it is now, so I feel comfortable at least sharing these character profiles with you. Please enjoy!

















And just as a fun bonus, here are even earlier versions of some of these characters.

In the later version, Viktor is a NEET, but in the earlier version, Viktor is in college (and also named Vaktor). Klaus, his roommate, is "a cupid," Micah is a mimic, and Juno is a chaotic/feral lycanthrope that Vaktor has a crush on. Of course, only Viktor makes it across to the next version of the pitch in a recognizable form.
I hope you enjoyed this insight into all of the flopping about that happens behind the scenes in making comics. I'm going to get on gacha rolls now. Thank you for your patronage!

part of the feedback, i guess, is that it would benefit from being a little more plot driven, and i agree. but i'm not used to writing long plot-driven stuff, so I've been reading Webtoon dramas and taking notes.
Shen
the human IS a significant character but I have no drawings of her lol

Wait, where is the human?
GrandpaGothCrocs
Seems like the sort of thing I would get obsessed with, plot driven or slice of life style 👍

excited for this!!!!

A Cupid design inspired by combination of Faust and Ryuk is really wild. This looks fun
Catherine
Is the vampire hunters mother... Okay?

I didn't know you'd like the location art! But since you do, I also just now added in the Wired Goblin Coffee Company, another exterior/interior location piece I made for this. :]
Neminem
It's okay. We're used to being abused by how much you keep hurting lilith (she is precious) Edit: also love this idea. Hopefully you expand on it (if you're feeling it ofc)

Really like Krakenzard

Kiwi is extremely Jo-coded. Joded, if you will. (Please don’t)
Amber Changing
Would, in fact, read the heck out of this

That's a bomb collar made of the strongest material in Hell! Because of an unknown crime he committed a long time ago, he is a prisoner/employee of Beelzebub and is normally imprisoned in Hell.

You're not the first to say that! People seem to immediately love Angel in Training and Cupid. :] I guess it's Viktor I need to sell them on though.

I want to know why Cupid has a tracking device.

Angel-in-training is my favorite, what a sweetie
