Hey there! Name's Bryan K., but you can call me Krouser. I like to play games, draw stuff, and build Gunpla in my spare time. I love learning the lore of other people's worlds and OCs while also striving to improve my own!

And here is an updated ref for the Hero of my story, Klaus Bardawulf!
A rising star adventurer the people of Terrene would come to know as "The Blue Swordsman". Will his deeds go down in legend? Will he fulfill his childhood dreams of becoming a hero? Only time will tell...
Klaus is a very polite young man who prefers to handle things civilly rather than skip straight to the fighting. However, if the lives of those he cares about are threatened in any way, he won't hesitate to attack anyone who attempts to bring harm to them. While a bit shy and awkward around those he's just met, he tends to open up to them pretty fast if he interacts with them long enough. He enjoys exploring new places and taking in scenic views he discovers in his travels. His favorite food is cooked brisket and his favorite drink is Root Beer. The primary inspiration for his design definitely came from old JRPG heroes of the 90s, but I also tried to make it stand out a bit more, mixing it up with a black, blue, and silver color scheme in mind. The goggles were a trope I picked up from shows I watched as a kid, where the main protagonist always seemed to wear a pair of goggles to symbolize themself as the leader of the party. Mix that with the standard young brown haired blue eyed protagonist look, and you got yourself a hero ready to set out for adventure.

Fashionably late with the Halloween pic, as per usual!

Hope you all had a wonderful night of frights!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Catniss and Merlina talked Bryan into being buried in a shallow grave for a silly Halloween picture. Needless to say, he is not happy about it. But, luckily for Bryan, they only buried him 2 feet deep, so he can easily pull himself out at any time.

Ghosts of the past come to haunt thy feed!

Here's some old art of the Halloween costumes I have done for some of my OCs over the years!
The scarecrow, stalwart guardian of the fields. Though a friend to the living, he will not hesitate to defend his crops from would-be troublemakers. Trespass upon his fields with ill intent, and become food for the crows and nutrients for the soil! The ghost of a fallen warrior roams the lands a restless spirit. Sprightly, mischievous, and feisty, this spiritual Valkyrie is a friend to all but those that prey upon the land of the living. Disturb not the tombs of the god of burials...Lest the wrath of his mummified guardians be upon you. Though, this one can be merciful, so long as you offer treats to her in atonement for your intrusion. Once a witch who traveled between worlds...Now, a lifeless husk, hungry for the flesh of the living. One wrong mistake with a resurrection spell is all it takes to make a zombie of a once proud adventurer.

Finally got around to drawing that fox girl OC that's been stuck in my head for a while. Meet Nozomi Sakuraba! A wandering shrine maiden with a swift blade and a heart of gold!
Nozomi is a voluptuous fox spirit praised for her beauty back home in her village. Beneath her alluring charm, however, lies a tomboyish prankster who enjoys toying with the people she meets and flustering those who fall for her. Her pranks are usually harmless, ranging from simple fox spirit trickery to humiliating individuals who stir up trouble while she's around. But, should a prank go a bit too far, she will apologize profusely and attempt to make up for her transgressions however she can. She enjoys sparring with other warriors in her spare time, testing their mettle in honorable combat, often treating them to a drink afterwards. She is also quite skilled at playing the Shamisen. When she isn't sparring, adventuring, or playing tricks, she is actually quite the pleasant person to be around, someone you can sit down and have a drink with on a quiet afternoon while sharing tales of adventure and battle. Kindhearted, polite, and loyal to those she calls her friends, she walks the path of a righteous swordsman, like her father before her. As such, she has no love for the unjust, often scorning those who walk a path of evil. Should you threaten to bring harm to her home world, or any world she is currently exploring, she will not hesitate to do what she must to defend it.

Presenting her royal ruthlessness! The crowned princess of the Blackheart Dominion! The only daughter of Remus Blackheart!

Meridia Blackheart! Princess of the dead!

She was long overdue for a new ref sheet, so I decided to do one for her.
Meridia is a proud and ruthless princess of the night. Should she set her mind to something, she will not hesitate to cut down anyone that stands in her way of her goal. She is also a master in the art of manipulation, able to negotiate, persuade, or even seduce anyone who crosses the party's path, swaying them in her favor with her silver tongue and honeyed words. But despite her arrogant and regal behavior, and while she can be rather blunt at times, she has shown to have a soft spot deep down. As time passes, she starts to care for Klaus and his party, slowly seeing them as powerful allies rather than expendable assets as their journey progresses, even offering advice to them and being a voice of reason in immense moments of stress. As their bonds strengthen, Meridia too would be seen as a close friend to the members of the party, willing to take a bullet for her, or fight in her defense, when someone threatens her life. She likes to read books and paint pictures in her downtime, sometimes practicing by painting her surrounding environment when she has the chance. She is also quite the fashionista when it comes to putting together an outfit for herself or the party. Her favorite food is pork ribs and her favorite drink is Red Wine. Though she may look the part, Meridia is certainly no Princess Peach. I definitely got inspiration for her overall design from various princesses from different franchises, however. Heck, my initial thought process was "Goth Princess Zelda" while designing her current appearance, giving her the aesthetic of a bewitching villainess combined with the regal majesty of a queen. Funny enough, she was an anthropomorphic vampire bat once upon a time, but as I fleshed out her character, I decided to make her a vampire elf instead. Her dress was also a lot puffier in old designs, but I wanted to slim it down a bit and make it more realistic to actual gowns this time around, giving her an elegantly sinister dress as black as midnight, fitting for her station as princess of the dead. She is definitely no damsel in distress.

Been a hot minute since I've made a new outfit for Merlina. So, I decided to draw a new formal dress for her!
I primarily took inspiration from a few gowns I saw online while looking up gothic victorian style dresses for reference. There was one specifically that caught my eye, which is what inspired the outfit you see Merlina adorned herself in now. A lovely gown with an aesthetically pleasing vibe, perfect for a waltz across the ballroom floor!

Version 2.0 of one of my many multiverse wandering OCs.

Generation 4 synthetic humanoid, serial designation S4-L1.

But, you can just call her Scarlet! Scarlet Fenghuang!
Believe it or not, a lot of my OCs not directly connected to my stories originated as bonemerged ragdolls I cobbled together in Garry's Mod. Scarlet is no exception. What started as a rival character for my merry band of misfits eventually joined up with them herself and became an invaluable asset ever since. I can now happily add her to the list of characters that branched off from my Gmodding days and became their own thing over time! This is a design I've had in my head for quite some time. It's based off of a cosplay I saw at a convention one time, and it inspired me to make an outfit for one of my OCs based off of it. Lightweight, flame resistant, and battle ready, this outfit is her favored attire when out adventuring between worlds!

Been a hot minute since I posted a Gunpla. So today, I give you the MSD/Modern variation of the good ol’ RX-78-2 Gundam!
The kit came with parts that give you the option to make it the early version, or the middle version from Gundam the Origin. I decided to do a hybrid of both to keep it in line with the Gundam’s traditional appearance from the original anime. Putting it next to the Gundam Revive version…Wow…The difference is night and day! Definitely has a more mechanical appearance than the revive version!

Made some tweaks to my Half-Vampire gal, Catniss! I wanted to try and differentiate her human and vampire forms a bit more.
What started out as a character I made in Gmod by bonemerging TDA/MMD models together eventually became her own character with her own lore. Yet another traveler of the multiverse who yearns to bring the truth to light in whatever world calls for her aid! When it was revealed to her that she was half-vampire, one truth became apparent to her...The supernatural exists! When not out adventuring with friends, she takes time to learn the ways of vampire nobility, learning to act the part and display the proper mannerisms when in the presence of other half-blooded and full-blooded vampires.

"Come, Disciple of Storms! Let us see if your mentor's guidance still holds true to Zephyr's teachings!"

Remus Blackheart, King of the Blackheart Dominion.

The big bad that pushes Klaus to his absolute limits and awakens the warrior within him.
There was a time when the people of Terrene called Remus Blackheart, King of the Blackheart Dominion, one of Grandora's greatest heroes. Despite bearing the dark blood of a vampire, both Elysia and its allies saw Remus as an invaluable asset. Though, those days would come to pass as a grave tragedy struck the royal family of Elysia. The queen had tragically passed away, and the blame was placed upon Remus for her death by the King, who claimed to have bore witness to the murder by Remus's hands. Chased from the capital by the pursuing holy Order, Remus barely escaped, thanks to the efforts of his fellow vampires, as well as those still loyal to him. Unfortunately, his name was now tarnished by the spiteful king, and with his decree, Vampires, as well all undead who walk the lands, would be hunted to the ends of the earth and be put to the sword in Saint Lordrana's name to avenge his late lover's death! Stricken with Grief over the queen's loss, Remus was left with a sullied reputation, heartbreak...And a pale skinned babe swaddled in blankets. This grief would fuel Remus to a point where he inevitably became the very monster the king made him out to be, slaughtering any and all who bear the standard of the Holy Kingdom, massacring the villages and farms of Grandora for blood to quench the thirst of his followers, and going to war with the very people who once called him a hero. "...A monster, am I? A villain? Is that what the royal family chooses to call a grieving father? A man trying to protect the only thing he has left to fight for in this world?" "...So be it..." "...A monster I shall be..." Thus was he the Night's Champion no longer. He would forever be seen as the wretched king of the Blackheart Dominion for centuries to come. Savior of the undead, scourge of the living. The once celebrated swordsman was now one of Terrene's greatest threats. The Lord of the Sith, The Master of Treachery, The Azure Knight, The Black Wolf, the initial inspiration for Remus's design came from a multitude of armor-clad antagonists. Sticking with the theme of of a Dark Knight crossed with a vampire, I wanted the colors to fit with the aesthetic of the Blackheart family shared between him and Meridia. Like father, Like daughter, as they say. I also wanted it to reflect a bit on the monster he has become by giving the armor some beast-like properties, representing Remus's inner demons made manifest, an armor to show that the man he once was is gone, and only a heartless conqueror is left in his place.

The head was bugging the shit out of me, so I went back and fixed it.

Here's my soldier gal, Alita, in a maid dress serving cold water on a platter!

I'll have an updated ref for her ready in due time.
Despite being raised as a soldier of her family's army, Alita is actually quite fond of cute and frilly outfits. Especially maid attire. She believes maids to be the pinnacle of what it means to be ladylike, bearing both the divine elegance of a maiden and the unyielding loyalty of a soldier. She has quite a few maid outfits hidden away in her wardrobe, but she fears what her father's reaction would be if he ever found her adorning one. As such, she usually wears them in private, or in front of someone she trusts, trying her best to keep this fascination hidden from the troops under her command, as well as her superior officers. Unfortunately for her, they already know full well she loves these kind of outfits. They just don't care.

Made an updated ref sheet for my jackal gal, Safiya!

A talented dancer, a loyal friend, and a fun-loving explorer who enjoys learning new things and discovering new places! But will she be able to overcome her personal traumas and master her gift as the Avatar of Anubis? Let us wait and see!
She is a very sweet and loving person who loves to socialize with others, always polite and always willing to converse with someone to learn more about them. But, she will sometimes act childish and bratty when something doesn't quite go as she wants it. She likes to play and go for walks when given the chance, eager to explore and have fun with friends alongside her. She enjoys dancing before a crowd or dancing for friends, always delighted when they cheer her on after her performance. She especially loves it when someone shares the stage with her and dances alongside her! She also likes to eat a lot, usually filling her belly with plate after plate of food that is laid out before her, so be prepared for a hefty bill if you share a meal with her. And be warned, should you share a bed or tent with her, she can and WILL cuddle you... Fun fact about me! I am a sucker for Ancient Egyptian themed aesthetics and Egyptian Mythology. Especially when it's oriented into a fantasy or sci-fi setting! So, naturally, when making Safiya's initial design, I wanted to make a character that sticks with that aesthetic while also giving her a more free spirited fantasy style to make her stand out with the rest of my cast. The main inspiration for her definitely came from Anubis monster girls, as well as various characters from fantasy settings who share a similar theme in their design. Among the cast of Characters in Klaus's party, Safiya is definitely one of my favorites, and one crucial to the plot if Klaus has any hope of shooting for the good ending!

Made some updates to Merlina's current design. I touched up her shirt a bit and gave her some snazzy new boots! All the better to travel the Multiverse with.
I considered going back to her old design and touching that up, but after some creative input from my friends, I decided to stick with the current design but update a few parts of it to make it more palatable. Her vest is blessed with ancient fae magics and sewn together with special fabrics created to shield the wearer from any blades, bullets, arrows or magic missiles that may seek to pierce through them in battle, granting her protection that near rivals that of a suit of armor. And here's how she appears with her cloak on. Both her cloak and her boots are enchanted with ancient fibers that protect her from the elements, allowing her to adapt to both warm and cold climates with ease.

That time I drew myself in a maid dress for shits and giggles!

Honestly? I like how this one turned out back when I drew it. One of those rare occasions where I cut loose and draw myself in something frilly for the fun of it.
Props if you can guess who's maid uniform the outfit is based off of. (No, it does not give me time manipulation powers...)

Digging up some old art to pass the time while I continue to make preparations to move into my new home.
Here's some OCs from a series I've had on the bench for the time being while I work on Klaus's story.

I do still hold these characters dear to my heart, however! Especially these four!
Maximillian Infernus. Son of Ensis Infernus. Half-Human, Half-Demon, Mercenary for hire. Together, with his childhood friends, Venitas and Raziel, Maxime is determined to earn his rightful place in the world of Firma and prove that those with demon blood in their veins are not blights upon the world as some may think. Fiona White-Sparrow. A gifted young witch with a high affinity for magic and a knack for the art of dance. Orphaned at a young age, enduring one hardship after the next, Fiona remains unbroken by the trials that have been thrown at her, holding her head up high with each one she overcomes. With a keen desire for knowledge and a heart of gold, Fiona travels the lands in hopes of one day mastering the arcane arts and becoming a legendary sorceress! Lady Vayle Arabella. A scholar of the arcane arts with the unusual ability to communicate with the dead. licensed by the Mage's Circle to study the ancient ruins scattered across Vitaria, Vayle hires Maxime and his friends as bodyguards to aid in her research and unlock the secrets buried deep beneath the planet's depths, oblivious to the destiny that has been laid out before her and her new allies. Raziel the Condemned. Once a cold-blooded mercenary, he met his end by the hands of a cult of necromancers, who than resurrected him from the dead in order to use him for their twisted research. After killing the necromancers, he began to wander Vitaria as a zombie, adjusting to his new undead life while also working alongside his old friends, Maximillian and Venitas, in hopes of reclaiming his lost reputation as a mercenary while also learning how to best use his newfound undead abilities.
