With all these beauties and divas, I really want to play for something monstrous or unusual, but at the same time with a feminine personality. Examples:
Absolutely enamored with this aesthetic for Gorr, if I could find more demons that remind me of Gorr I'd include them in my next board.

You wanna play something that gives you an arsenal of blades to summon on command so you may tear through monsters and godlike beings? First Berserker definitely helps realize the fantasy of what it's like to play as Gorr.
It's one of those souls-likes, but with breakneck paced combat. Once you get familiar with the systems, I swear to you this is exactly what you'd want from a game that lets you play as Gorr.
If anyone knows any other games like this, please let me know.
Coming for you, Thunderer. For all the damage you've done to my backline, all the times I turned away to hold the frontline, hoping and praying that someone would peel and stop you. All Thors must die.
Really fucking hyped for Gorr btw, see y'all soon!

Yeah, I know I'm going to get the comments saying "he's not even out yet," I've already heard that before. There are also people who apparently hate the idea of Gorr getting any skins that aren't from the comics or movies, they're very against Rivals having creative takes on the characters and despise the Immortal Beasts line, the candy line, etc.
So if you're going to leave that comment, I've already heard it before.
Anyway, I think this aesthetic would look incredible for Gorr! A lot of Buddhist mythology and some folklore make references to men and even mundane inanimate objects transformed into powerful and wrathful beings under certain conditions.
I think it would be a fun take on the character, maybe tie him to Kunlun where he goes out to hunt the God of War, and his form changes to match his mystic might, just some light lore or something. All I'm really hoping for are the additional eyes, wild teeth, and tattered or flowing clothes.
How do you feel about Gorr? Does anything about the character resonate with you personally or culturally?
Obviously he won't have six arms like here, but the everything else, especially the whole head area, I feel is completely doable.
I understand creating skins is a whole ordeal, it could take months from the initial pitch to have the skin made and that's if they're green lit.
Still, this is such a unique and striking look that I feel they'd be missing out if they didn't include this.
Had to show up in JoJo's or MHA, I've got no idea who it could be though
Even at their most monstrous, their humanity endures
Basically title
I'm very worn out this week so I'm not able to get the motivation to start on my fanfic for these two, so I decided that a playlist full of cute moments between characters like these two and some songs would really get me in the groove once I'm recovered.
I've already got some things I wanna try to toss into the story, like Fox having a moment where she goes too hard on some of Kingpin's Anti-Vigilante goons and Hood has to reel her back in and remind her that sort of violence is the path he's on and doesn't want to watch a hero go down his route.
And some moments where Fox and Hood talk about the restraints she and other heros put upon themselves, how she doesn't want to look like a demon but knows that she's stunting a part of herself for others, while Hood tells her that the most powerful part of herself is always going to be feared regardless of her restraint.
There's some potential for Fox to get a more vulnerable side of Hood to show itself, to get him to admit how scared her really is and for her to comfort him when he's spiraling from losing himself. He's already shown it to Blade and even a little bit to even Luna Snow, it really doesn't take much to pull back the facade of the arrogant wannabe big shot and get to the same scared and angry little boy he's always been.
Was NOT expecting him to get along with Luna Snow. I dislike Luna, but there was a genuine moment here somehow.
He genuinely got under Spidey's skin there, they've definitely got some bad blood there
Psylocke and Strange are genuinely terrified of Oblivion's influence over him, it's kinda scary how clueless Hood is. Like watching a car crash in slow motion
Ami Han has some voice lines with him, honestly I was hoping they would've had the moment that Luna had with him where they open up about their pasts there. Guess that's expected though with Fox's demeanor.
Emma Frost does NOT like this dude lmao
Shit, I think I might have to ship Hood with Luna. UGGGH IT JUST DOESN'T FEEL RIGHT
The references are very welcome
Anybody who's familiar with Parker knows he doesn't have much variation in his appearances, usually he's either wearing a leather jacket and jeans or a basic black suit.
But this new take on Hood opens up a lot of really interesting aesthetics to explore and mix together, especially if they wanna show off Oblivion's influence from time to time.
I'm talking the standard vaquero outfits mixed with some occult aesthetics, a decorated tailored suit popping with color, hoods that also have veils or masks that cover his face, daemonic imagery, animal pelt hoods, the possibilities are endless.
Big hoods and cloaks are massive statements in design and I know it can be difficult to make a silhouette that isn't overwhelmed by that kind of accessory, but there are so many different aesthetics to pull from that would beautifully compliment a huge flowing hood.
I think his launch skin is fine, it's way more "Damien Priest" than "The Hood, Oblivion's Acolyte," but it's missing him actually wearing a hood over his head. I know Rivals is gonna do this often, but I would really like to see them implement his hood as much as possible. Have him wear a hat over it, have it be ridiculously large so it won't hide his head as much, be decorative with it, add masks, do something with his namesake!
Bagged twice by two non-magic users, this is so embarrassing
These are the characters I believe have some of the best potential for chemistry, whether it's platonic or romantic or just straight up lethal
Personally, I really like him with White Fox, Black Cat, and Strange
I'll admit I do wish we got a melee, organic daemon form BUT he looks way too fucking cool to be disappointed
Holy fuck he looks insane LMAO
It's Monk's Hood and Foxglove, respectively
We'll be getting our trailer for The Hood tomorrow I believe, I really hope I get a good look at his daemonic form so I can decide whether or not it would be cute to see the two monster forms cuddling
I swear this dynamic pops up at least once in all my favorite media
This one looks much better than the last one I made
