This is Crow, who traveled to the Land of the Dead and gazed upon the King of Death to discover True Sorrow and Despair for the Sun King. It's a Black Hills Legend.

The claws are amazing and the feathers are perfectly drawn!
I envy and admire your ability to create fascinating mythologies...

Heheh, it really is amazing! One more reason why Sckelg's one of my favourite of your characters...
That's something to admire! You can create amazing art out of simple impulses. Any ideas that sneak up on me are usually very, very creepy... One of my high school teachers, a particularly religious old geezer wanted to exorcise me after seeing the doodles that were littering the margins of my notebook...

For all I know it involves splashing the supposed evil entity with holy water and mumbling some sort of creepy litany in latin, "Apage spiritus immunde" ('Begone unclean spirit' (or so)), with some sacred candles burning... Nowadays they skip the fun part with torturing the suspect and burning them on the stake...
I dunno how he would've reacted, but what if it did work? :evileyes:

:lmao: well if it did work you'd both be surprised, if it didn't, then he would just be surprised and you would be very bored and wet from being splashed with holy water...Go back from whence you came!!!!

Nice. I like how the feather crests down from his head to down his arm, ending in his sharp talons.
