I love making OCs for Weirdlanders’ twisted take on Skylanders. 😀

Lore
sex: female (as far as anyone knows)
species: elf, dragon, phoenix, unicorn mish mash
colors: soft pastels

Whatever Lore was in life, she doesn’t care and it matters not in the presence of the woman she worships as a goddess, Hysteria.

When creating her patchwork demon, Hysteria made sure to gather parts from sentient beings who had died terribly at the hands of those who did not work for her parents or siblings. The elf part, especially, had an unfortunate end (all that was left of her body was the head). Why Hiss created Lore in the first place is unknown, but in so doing, she’s made herself a servant more devoted than the most dedicated priest of any known religion in all of Skylands.

Don’t let Lore’s serene looks or soft colors fool you: she is a killer. She is never not smiling, but her smile is brightest when ripping apart another sentient creature. It almost…but not quite…reaches her empty, soulless eyes. Pray you never hear her laugh. The only beings she refrains from killing are her goddess, Hysteria’s other creations, and those her goddess deems worthy of life (Hysteria’s family, mostly, though Hiss may have given Lore orders not to kill every living thing if only so there will be people left for her to subjugate later). Lore has an intense hatred for the living in general. What memories are left to her of the lives her parts lived are nightmares of their torture and eventual murders. She does sleep when she must, but Lore finds the activity distasteful because it always brings those memories to the fore, renewing her desire to seek vengeance on the air suckers who ended her in the first place.

When not doing her goddess’ bidding or tearing her way through the living, Lore enjoys reading. Her talons are just dexterous enough to turn book pages. Mostly, though, she spends her time in contemplation of the most holy Hysteria. Even if Hiss unmade her, Lore would see the act as one of divine benevolence.

Lore is capable of speech but often prefers to be silent, intimidating or lulling her victims with her constant seeming of serenity. Her voice is soft and gentle and she is capable of singing, as well as a number of more disturbing sounds that mix the voices of all her constituent parts. Lore is also capable of flight, but seems to stay in the air more through magic, hovering when she wishes to without the use of her wings.

The Vultures

The Vultures are a strange species created by Hysteria when she was a child in attempt at making dependable minions. She gathered leftovers from her meals, pushing the pieces together and using her portal master abilities to bring them life. Although they are technically chimeras, she refers to them as ‘her vultures’, as every single chimera is made using a bearded vulture’s head and other species’ parts. In the beginning, she creates three main vultures; Vayn, Envii, and Skorn. However when she’s older, she begins to create more and more, eventually allowing them to breed until she has a full army. But the three main become her generals, with Vayn being her second in command.

The vultures praise Hysteria as their deity, for she brought them life and feeds them power. In turn, making them dangerously loyal to her. They each have a magical link to her, ensuring that not one would defy her, working almost like a brain-washing spell. If one shows even the slightest bit of resilience to Hysteria, they are either beaten by the other vultures, or killed. 

Vayn
Species : Bearded Vulture, Gryphon, Crocodile
Sex : Male
Description : Vayn was the first of Hysteria’s vultures to be born, and the most loyal to her. He follows her every step, and listens to her orders to a T. Everything he does is in Hysteria’s interest. Hiss does like this, however he easily gets on her nerves for being too clingy.

Envii
Species : Bearded Vulture, Striped Hyena
Sex : Female
Description: Over-zealous, but still loyal. Envii does what her goddess tells her to do, but will most likely end up killing her target instead of capturing them, or becomes too distracted with the kill to listen to orders. Envii is very aggressive and easy to tempt into fighting. While she’s the most lethal of the vultures, her enthusiasm is her fault.

Skorn
Species : Bearded Vulture, Panther, Mule Deer
Sex : Male
Description : Skorn is often found sleeping and sun bathing when he isn’t following Hysteria’s orders. He can be seen as lazy, but when he’s given a goal, he’s dangerously attentive. He’s the quietest out of the three main vultures, but will aid in Envii’s games to tease Vayn.

Trivia

  • Hysteria’s vultures were, as is most things with me, inspired by a song. Delain’s newest album, The Human Contradiction, had been released, and upon listening to the first song I decided that not only would the lead singer Charlotte Wessels be adult Hysteria’s voice, but her minions would be gryphon vultures. The first song off of their CD is called “Here Come The Vultures”, which I can without a doubt visualize Hysteria singing.
  • Vayn was then inspired by the gryphon from the awful movie nobody should ever see called “Quest to Camelot”, as well as my love of gryphons.
