A bloodsucker from the east once sailed to the shores of the west, and within the House of the Bat, found a crown that whispered to him of ancient secrets... of another path to vampiric mastery, born of the steaming jungles and temple-cities his people had come to conquer and proselytize.
The holy crusader himself became the convert of a new faith. And in embracing the Bat God, the Bat God embraced him...
Thousands of beating wings filled the skies, and the moon moved itself in front of the sun. An eclipse turned the skies blood red as the conquistadors fled in terror from one of their own... now the avatar of a thirsting deity whose parched throat craved to drink it's fill of the world's pleasures it had so long been denied.
HolySeven isn't just fantastic at drawing eldritch things. They're fantastic, period. I've been waiting a long time to have my vampire character achieve his absolutely 100% definitely final form- AND I LOVE IT SO MUCH! Thank you superslug! He's shirtless, he's got a smouldering Spanish accent, and I couldn't be happier with his final design! 8D

oooh, I like the idea of a Mesoamerican-themed vampire, and the setting's tough to top as well! I think vampirism and colonialism are ideas that we don't see much of and would craft a compelling mythos. Especially in the days of the Conquistadors, where the goal was solely exploitative and the trans-Atlantic slave trade would soon be established, the idea of people being terrorized by powerful people sucking the life out of 'em is palpable.
You can truly see the dedication Alcazotz's will now, allowing the vampire to bless those he encounters with their mighty visage. Even the golden city will have a pale red glow to it when he goes to preach and convert those that would otherwise deny the mighty Bat God's influence. Even the mightiest dinosaurs won't be able to stop the beautiful darkness from embracing the land, and it's reach all the way back to the homeland of the unfaithful.
I love your write up, and the art is simply *chef kiss*. If you do get a story done, I can't wait to read it
