Devil May Cry Oc - Tumblr Posts
ZEPHYR + FIA
My DMC OC :], some more info about him below:
Zephyr is a full blooded demon, from way back when the human world and demon world were still connected. Making him about 2,000 ish years old, even if his human form appears so young (about 8-10 years old)
He lives on his own in a quaint little port town near Fortuna, the residents of which know he's a demon and dont mind all that much. They've lived with him for so long that they're just used to the young demon boy.
The red stuff is his companion, Fia. She is essentially Zephyr's blood taking the form of semi-solid red smoke, which he uses to attack through a small dagger. Fia can talk to him whenever she's "active".
The dagger he's holding is a devil-arm called Custos, i have some info about it that ill post later.
When it comes to his relationship with the main DMC cast, i havent fully fleshed everything out yet. Currently ive written a fic for his introduction to Nero and one for Vergil, which you can read here. More fics will be written and added at some point.
all posts about Zephyr, Fia and the bosses will now be tagged with "#the boy from 2000 years ago" !!
"romantic" "platonic" no whatever those two have going on is way more sinister than all that
So y’all know the classic edge trope of “my blade cannot be sheathed until it has tasted blood”? What if a magic sword that has that requirement, except it’s sort of inverted. A sword that, instead of being inhabited by an evil spirit which once awakened cannot be lulled back to sleep except by blood sacrifice, was inhabited by a benevolent spirit who would not allow the sword to be drawn unless bloodshed were the only possible solution. A sword whose power could never be misused because it would only allow itself to be used in situations where it was justified. What about a Paladin who spends their entire journey fighting with a sheathed sword, incapacitating but never killing or maiming. The party believes that the Paladin has taken an oath of no killing, until they face the big villain. And it is in that moment, and that moment alone, that the sword will allow itself to be drawn.
Idk, this image set my mindwheels a-turning.
But do y’all see the vision?
ive posted part 3 of the boy from 2000 years ago on Ao3! its a backstory fic about Fia, how she was acquired by Zephyr in the first place and a little explanation into how she works. more Fia lore to come later :]
THE LAMB
A little self-indulgent piece with Zephyr, and Fia. Yes that is Fia, she is also the dagger, also the red gemstone in the dagger. Make sense? Good :3
I am actually quite happy with how this piece turned out, especially that stained glass effect. I also haven't drawn anything using proper lineart in a while, it was a nice change although it was tempting to just paint over everything lmao. I have Zephyr's ref sheet but i wanna draw another thingy for it to post. I also have his DT form drawn up to share too at some point. For now, enjoy :]
*Insert here that meme that goes "Please give them contacts, im actually shaking rn...."*
When i saw @necrokity 's OC Delilah i couldn't help but draw this piece with my darling Zephyr lol. This is definitely a lot sketchier than any of my other pieces ive posted here so i hope thats okay, otherwise i hope you like this :>> <3
Ive been sorting through some Zephyr lore and trying to figure out his backstory... i think i have it down, might do a comic about it or maybe just an illustration and rant in the tags lmao
i know this is about canon-dmc but it reminded me a lot of Zephyr, so im going to yap about him now :3
Zephyr is a full blooded demon, he was created by Mundus to act as a servant of the demon king. He will never 100% experience humanity and/or human emotions, but that doesnt mean he wont try.
Hes lived in the human world for a good 2,000+ years after all, and has had plenty of time to figure stuff out. Their languages, writing and reading, various cultures, etc. Both to blend in easier and not stand out so much, keeping the fact that he's a demon a little less obvious to the general public, and also, genuine curiosity for how humans behave and live.
And mixed into all of that, he's had to learn how to interpret, understand, and even feel human emotion for himself (again, to blend in.) Yet, he'll never truly experience that for himself. Or at least he thinks he wont.
He's convinced himself that whenever he feels human emotion, its him "faking it to seem more human and blend in" because thats just what he's been doing for so long. But at what point does it stop being a subconscious action and instead turns into a genuine reaction to something?
He'll grow giddy if he ever finds a new book he's never read before. He falls into bouts of depression whenever any of his friends pass away from old age, while he remains unaged in the slightest. He'll become irritated and even angry if something/someone leaves his house in a mess. Among other things.
He is a demon, a full blooded creation of the demon king himself. Demons arent generally known for their humanity. But maybe, with enough effort and time, one can learn to be human.. or at least, human enough to pass.
I feel like demons are actually quite good at understanding human emotion if they care to do so, whether out of genuine care, simple curiosity, or maliciousness.
dante & vergil;s coooool aunt (oc)
dmc oc - dimitri! As mentioned she's a cannibal demon that once took a bite out of dante and realized she didnt really like how he tasted. They became friends after
recent dmc anon poll got me thinking but would u guys rock with my oc being a failed eva/trish clone. that was like one my firsg ideas for her but i havent really set it in stone yet
when you change one thing about an oc's backstory and it messes up their whole story
Guess since the fandom is kinda
*crickets*
I am gonna introduce a blorbo which I am nervous about
This is Mira.. or Miroslava if you wanna annoy her. She's one of my first dmc blorbos that I won't lie spawned bc *points at blueberry chair man*
She's a Mundus kid.. and that comes with some damage let me tell you, but story for another day.
Too nervous to post her dt but she's a hybrid, and she holds her stepmom as a devil arm, also story for another day.
Dt wise she's a birb, a lil goverment drone if you will.
Anyway I hope I can make myself a home in the tinh corner of dmc oc tumblr if you let me, adios ;^;
Rafael reference 2!
Yet another blorbo drops
This time drumroll
An Order heiress, because I thought it would be funny for Sanctus to depend on someone financially for his big bad evil plan oh no
To make her very much still in progress backstory simple, she's a childhood friend of Nero's and Kyrie's, she fell for Kyrie first and then bc her and Nero butted heads.. well. Shithead managed to catch feelings x2 electric boogalo.
Her family is kinda loaded on her dads side, because he is a descendant of one of the De Medici branches, big failboy that managed to snag Odessa (Dahlia's mom) and had Dahlia in Florence, before moving to Fortuna per Odessa's request as she was born there. Him and Sanctus are rat bastards and Federico (Dahlia dad) decided that he will indeed try to sneakily worm his way into the order (spoiler he was obnoxious about it) and try to take over as his last hurrah at having done literally anything in life.
Dahlia has to fight her parents in 4, aswell as she also makes a pact with a demon out of desperation. Her patron is demon Razikel, a Kar'niss bg3 looking ass, that asks her to be a vessel for him and to give her soul to him as pact terms, in exchange she gains knowledge and hybrid level stats.. and stronger magic. Why did she do it, I hear you ask, Nox why was she such a dumbass, well, it's because she is whipped for the KYYYYRIEEEE guy and Kyrie; she didn't want to feel useless and get Kyrie back, aswell as protecting Nero.
After the entire order shit goes down, Nero has to exterminate the spider but then all 3 realise oh shit, Dahlia nearly died fuck okay you know what, fuck it we a throuple now. So yeah, Nero and Kyrie have a goth gf witch, package deal babey, don't separate them.
Oh also snek familiar she summoned at a really low point in her life when she discovered witchcraft, that actually became her passion and genuine interest.
why is holy crying? :(
They need to make a mental check on her every month so she won't turn into a angel chimera and destroy the world
