DND | "Friend"'s Backstory | Open Up Your Eyes Animatic

the animatic surely no-one expected and asked for but i suddenly got struck with the motivation for it ! The storyboard was done in a day, drawing the 26 backgrounds and roughly 140 frames cost me almost an entire week ;;; I never really drew minotaurs before, and quite frankly was nervous abt doing it but it made me happy i tried. Even though some frames felt very wonky but i just hope it shows not as much.
I also wanted to use some soundeffects but didn't quite find what i was looking so,--
I think it is an upgrade from my last animatic that i did, and i am awfully sorry it takes me so long to get something out. BUT when i publish something i want it to be filled to the brim with effort and passion.

!!SPOILERS!!
Vra was born as a minotaur in the Golgari community in Ravnica. His parents disappeared and left him at the orphanage where he made several friends ,but all got adopted in the end. Turnt away from the idea of a family for himself he dedicated himself to the Golgari.On a daily routine walk , one of their tunnels collapsed and he attempted to save his friend and love interest Hani.A barrier ended up blocking their path , a set-up and assasionation only ment for Vra,but unfortunately also killing Hani.They later ressurected Hani with their necromancy but she never came back the same way.
Hald crushed they left Vra to die in the collapsed tunnel,- by chance one day a apprentice blood witch found him.She decided to make feast of him while he lasts . Bitterly Vra called her his most loyal Friend because of her frequent visits. He amuses her dearly with that and changed her mind, to turn him into a lasting experience, aling the way of his resurrection sharing her own story with him. He gets reborn as "Friend" , taken in by the Cult of Rakdos.
She rebuilt his arm and horns, fuelled with Rakdos. When the bard breaks the conceal seal the black - purple on his arm shows and his body gets fuelled with Rakdos himself, playing on the instruments.
Friend accepted his new name , fate and the bloodwitch Exava ( Note : This is a diffrent alteration of Exava and not true to her canon lore & design. She is also fairly young at that point in time and still experimenting ).
He is upmost loyal to the Rakdos and would put do just about anythign Exava wishes for.He sees her as his only friend and ally,no-one else deserves that trust. She promised him to be able to take revenge and return what was lost long ago, and so far she held her word. Helping him kill one after another of his enemies.

I noticed the Ravnica guild insignias. (Rakdos & Golgari) From the setting, a Minotaur and a Devkarin* (Dark Elf)? Edit: Read the description. Blood Witch.

[@kokoroarmy4110]

Yes ! I know she doesn't look much like a blood witch there but I can't make very design elaborate animatics yet so I kept the designs for both very simple qwq ~

lovely

[@Jaimyoutubing]

Maybe he was just a bit small, but that minotaur was kinda short. Or maybe the woman is just really tall? Minotaur are very large, especially males. That's about my only complaint, and I suppose I'd retract it if he was supposed to be a short minotaur.

[@kokoroarmy4110]

*soz in idk how to draw minotaurs* i will try to fix the sizing next time I draw them! Thanks for pointing it out ♡

[@Grixis_Teller_of_Tales]

If it's based on ravnica minotaur are only 7.5 feet tall

[@Grixis_Teller_of_Tales]

@@craigpoltenovage9148 if you never played magic the gathering then how would you know centaurs Avg at 6.0 luxidon 6.7 minotaur varies from book to book avg in ravnica is 5.10 max 7.5 so it's not outside the realm of game mechanics as for ravnica setting doors are sized for all people including giants of 12 tall.
