Older pic. Original comment and tl;dr rambling forthcoming:

An old character given some new life. Oscuro here is a Zeirem (also called a 'Noh Weader' because of the face), an oddity among Weader types because of the specie's almost humanoid characteristics (which granted it with yet another nickname by some Earth scientists: the Satarnian Naga). Several notes about the Zeirem:

-The word 'zeirem' is based off the native language for the species, so there's no correct way to write it: Ziriem, zariem, zar-nyen, etc.

-It's approx. 10-16 feet long, though only about half of that is ever seen upright (about 6-7 feet).

-Zeirem* are also unique in that only the males have horns (in most other weader breeds, both genders have them). Females have two silver-colored, metal-like dots over each brow. Zeirem males rarely use their horns for anything other than decorative use; they depend more on their tails and handlike claws to grab at prey.

-Like all Weaders, they have 'thumb-claws'. Unlike most weaders, though, their claws and horns are all covered in a silver-like alloy. To this day, the reason for this is under debate.

-The mouth can stretch *much* wider than one might think from such a small snout, showing that the Zeirem has more in common with certain earth snakes than nearly any other Weader.

As for the head? That's Oscuro's 'human' form for when he once went undercover. That part is based off an older RP I used him in. Reason I drew both was because I was thinking of using him again in the future in another game...or not. Ah, well.

*the name -hell, the whole species- was inspired by the anime 'Iria: Zeiram The Animation'. It's a homage thingie. Yeah.
