OC Concept - Ezalba Etanimulli

Description

First off, I'll apologize for this fellow's odd name. It's a couple of words that you'll recognize if you just reverse them... (Explanation for the weird name to come). XD

I stumbled across this Otherworlde Macabre OC Contest [link] and figured that I'd join. Just for kicks.

So... Ezalba. You could call him a demon of light.

I've been wanting to create a character named Amaterasu for quite a while. The name Amaterasu means "who illuminates heaven." Aaaaand then I was informed that there's a rather well-known character already by that name. (I've never played the Okami games okay :ohnoes:) So, I reversed the name--Usaretama--and was surprised that it actually didn't suck as bad as I thought it would.

But it still kinda sucks.

So, I found synonyms for illumination and messed with those. And now this devil sounds like he should be an Italian gypsy. :dummy:

Anywho, Ezalba has no face, no ears, no hands. One could argue that those gaping holes where his nipples should be are eyes of some weird sort. He cannot speak, see, or hear, and yet I imagine he's an all-knowing being with immense power that is not to be toyed with.

...I was playing around with some serious symbolism but now that it's one o'clock in the morning, I can't really remember why I did what I did.

Oh, yeah, and this certainly is not my best piece of artwork. In fact, it's not a good piece of artwork at all. XD It is just a concept... but I quite like the concept so I might very well play with this design further if I feel inclined to do so. (Probably not for many weeks/months, though.)

This will probably be scrapped soonish. It's kind of embarrassing.
