Hello all my beautiful people.

I’ll be posting again a lot later than I had hoped but there have been some hiccups along the way. Sadly I was hospitalized and without getting into too much detail I will be getting surgery soon.
I’ve also freely talked about my mental Health as well. OCD is no joke. And it’s one of the reasons it took me away from my love; drawing. My physical ailments are not helping my mental health front but I’m on anti-depressants and on pain medication to help and it seems to be helping.

Though while I’m able to do it I decided to draw again.

I’ll be drawing when I can and possibly a bit more while I recover.

Sadly, I am very out of practice so it’s taking me long to get it all sorted. But you will see me again :)

Also, if you haven’t seen my previous post, please take a look at  foxotter as she is a dear friend with great art work who will be submitting drawings very soon :)

With this welcome back bit, I decided why not make a 10 facts you probably didn’t know about Raye (my character):

1) In canon, she is a thief for hire though has a different "day job" for "legitimate" purposes

2) Raye is known to do impulsive, act-now-think-later actions that sometimes works in her favor, sometimes it does not.

3) Raye has a strict “No Kill” policy, unlike Lothar Hex, but has in the past killed under extreme circumstances.

4) Raye’s original hair color is black. She dyes it red. Every now and again she lets her hair grow and cuts off the dyed, damage hair. This has happened once in a previous story line. Her hair grows fairly quickly so she is not bothered by it. Lothar prefers her hair black. She has had it 3 different colors in the past but stuck with red for many years.

5) My irl good friend Christina and I have created over 300 pages of comics as well as over 600 pages of fanfic using our characters. Christina the bat was originally Christina the Koala, but after Sonic Adventure 2 came out she became a bat due to loving Rouge’s design. That said, those fan fics and comics were created on an older computer which died and only a few of these items exist now. In both Raye’s and Chris’ timeline they also deal with the supernatural, something Raye is familiar with but again tight lipped about it.

6) Due to me creating Raye when I was about 13/14 yrs old, she was ultimately a Mary Sue. Her back story consisted of her being a princess in a village that saw incredibly little contact from the outside world (the Kings and Queens were only allowed to talk to “outsiders”) She was set to be married by 18 so by 15 she was courted by a suitor and if it worked out she was to marry him by 18. The village consisted of 4 kingdoms each having their own leadership. However, a scorned individual who was exiled from the village for owning books of dark magic gathered up an army by promising lies and making them believe with a few dark magic tricks and invaded the kingdoms and killed most people there. Raye, as far as she knew, was the only surviving royal member but as the story progressed she was met by a couple of people in the royalty that have survived. They had asked her to complete the kingdoms by coming back but has declined due to “having her heart filled with too much darkness” so instead she has found a successor to take her place—a cousin she later found to be alive. She visits her newly reconstructed home as people have come back to bury their long dead but her cousin feels as she is the rightful owner of the seat and always takes a step down when she returns. Something Raye truly hates but accepts as she becomes an ambassador between her and the “outsiders” to hopefully build trusts between the two so the gap closes and the Kingdoms can be a part of the rest of the world. Both her parents have been found dead, her brothers were killed in front of her, but her youngest brother’s body has yet to be found and is declared “Missing”. As... you can imagine this story has long, long since then been scrapped. This is no longer relevant but I thought it's a very interesting little tidbit to share how much her story has changed since I was a young teen :)

7) Raye likes to read to unwind.

8) Raye likes to cook as well.

9) Raye's parents come from two different cultures.

10) Raye and Lothar met on a mission—they both had to steal an artefact that had ties to the supernatural but they were both sent by different bosses. They clashed and was overpowered by Lothar who took the diamond and threatened her life but chose not to kill her at that moment. Since then they have had a strained relationship. Lothar and Raye both had a mutual friend who would hire her and Christina out for stealth missions (which they all were terrible at) which force Raye and Lothar to interact which eventually leads them to become friendlier.

Phew, that’s a lot to know. I still remember a lot of her previous storylines so send me a PM if you’re interested in hearing more ;) BUUUUT this is subject to change, we are reworking on a lot of stories and changes as we are no longer the same people we were in our early teens (thankfully) so a lot of these things are subject to change.
