Shedding the Viper's Skin | Snake Aegis Wielder | WILDWARD

[@ccherry.berryy]

It’s so interesting how you’ve chosen her to not only mirror her own life but how it works perfectly that she can heal the injured because a snake is on most medical symbols

[@EclipseDoesArt]

The caduceus, yes!! Interesting fact, the caduceus symbol on most medical offices and such is actually the caduceus of Hermes- the staff of Asclepius, the god of medicine, only has one snake as opposed to the more commonly depicted two!

Holy crap… Ulara is so pretty!!! The silhouette is amazing, the colors are gorgeous, and her whole theme is amazing! As a snake fan, it’s nice to see it put in a more gentle and heroic light than as a malicious or trickster type. It’s also nice to see a leader that isn’t the Superman or Army Commander type. Ahhhh, she’s so cool!!! The ability to detach from her empathetic nature to do what needs to be done at the last resort is also neat! It’s so different from how “heroes” are typically represented and I love it so much!!! Extremely well done, Calimari… extremely well done!

[@Just_Hera]

She shows kindness and confidence in her eyes, which is very nice for a leader. I loved her theme, the silhouette and that she is a very muscular woman without losing her elegance

[@Wendeta-hq2cp]

It's because she has lean muscle. When most us think of muscle we think of weight lifters or people with thick musculature in general. But there is also the lean athlete build (or in this case the lean martial artist build).

Ah, yes. The "nope rope". But, seriously. This is so beautiful. I was also kinda wondering if there would be any insect, sea creature, or rodent Aegis(I say this and realize that Miraculous has like three bug themed heroes).

I LOVE-LOVE-LOVE the complicated and partially non-western/European reading on snakes you have here! snakes have historically and around the world had benevolent and healing connotations, often even relating to rebirth when they shed their skin and rise anew. I'm so happy to see these elements reflected in Ulara's personality and visual design ❤️🥺

[@madrat8060]

Using diamonds for Felle Noire (which represents excitement of wealth) and using hearts for Ulara (which represents love) gave me a sense that you're going for a bit of card theme with your magical girl team, which their are only four members, right? So that's perfect. If you don't mind, I have a idea of what you can do for the next Aegis holder. My idea was for the next person of the team has the Raven Aegis, and have this person be a socially recluse super genius who has trouble getting along with others until she meets the main group. I would also have this person act as recon for the group, gathering information from police officers on duty or steaking out criminal hideouts and send the information back to the team, Like Huginn and Muninn did for Odin. And the shape I would chose was Spades because they represent intelligence, wisdom, and communication. This is just my idea though, you probably have something else in mind and you don't have to take mine seriously, it's just a fun idea I came up with. Love your content, by the way.

I love the two sides of Ulara as well as her design. I also love how Callimara’s voice changes when she’s describing the characters backstories and personalities, it’s honestly kind of soothing. The color scheme, shading, and incorporation of snakelike elements are all ✨chefs kiss✨

[@macieceballos3051]

Love her design, she honestly feels like a combination of viper from kung fu panda & unohana from bleach & I love it, I really love how instead of just having her just based around "snakes" like just saying they're a snake person, you have examples of different types of snakes when describing her, like she isnt just a snake person, shes the personification of snakes in general

[@a.w.4708]

I haven't expected this personality for snake aegis and I like that it isn't what I've expected, this is much better. Being down to Earth and compassionate is in my opinion not used enough for magic team leaders. The only thing I afraid is her being too versatile (excellent combat, excellent weapon usage, excellent learning speed, excellent charisma, excellent healing skills, excellent personality, excellent senses) so instead of being part of the team she would be slef-sufficient with the other girls feeling excessive and useless. It is possible to make embodiment of perfection character who is still likable by readers, but it is usually trickier than expected. I feel like the Ladybug problem came partially from this.

Love her ! She looks like katara from ATLA and not in the bad way. Benevolant, kind, compassionate graceful and versatile as water... She's also the "mom" of the group. But she can also be cold blooded and vengefull. The hearts shape is really good cause in writing, the heart of a group is the character that help, heal and care for the others members. Personally, The flaw u shared with us is cool : cause her lack of selfcare (In the sense that she care more about other than herself ) can be use to create tension if she have the tendency to sacrifice herself or take everything on her. But what is her driving force... If this is the will of protect everyone ? Why does she have it ? Did she failed to protect something or somebody in the past... A traumatic expérience that could have humbled her ?... That would be cool to know that and more.

So I watched the songbird video and then came back around to the rest of the playlist, and I have to say Ulara is absolutely my favorite character so far. I really love the detail of her gentle and calming expression not changing and instead taking on a super eerie vibe when she's ripping you to shreds in combat. I think stoic and kind looking but still genuinely terrifying characters are underrated and they're one of my all time favorite character types, so I'm glad to see you using it for this story! (Plus as a support main in everything: THANK YOU for making her so badass and yet also a healer. The true embodiment of the "I'm a healer, but" meme lol) And her design is absolutely beautiful as well. I can see why you're using text for this story rather than comic form because WOW you have some intricate designs going on here!!!

[@jessupshutt3557]

Another amazing design! I love everything from the outfit design. The weapon she uses and her hesitancy to use it as a first resort. How the people of the town have come to view her due to how she carries herself. And the fact that she's comfortable being feminine in a positive way while being the leader of the team. Most of the time I've come to expect female leaders in movies and shows to always be overwhelming bossy and makes people want to keep them well beyond arms length. This also tells me that I need to work more on developing my own world building for my own story I have in mind. My problem is finding people to help bounce ideas off of.

[@MissSolaris]

I am really in love with the series and character designs. Also, I have a question about the Aegis. Can different wielders be based on different species/subspecies of a certain animal? For example, we know that Ulara is based on a reticulated python (from the first Wildward video and art of Naga), but could someone else be based on a different snake species?

[@persnickety_peahen]

iirc, it's the Sentinels rather than the Aegis wielders whose designs are based around specific animals, as they took the form of the first creature they saw that embodied their value. so Naga is a reticulated python, not Ulara, meaning it would be consistent across all Snake Aegis wielders. hopefully that makes sense! :)

[@annabunny7271]

Wow! Great job, Callimara! Ulara looks like a gorgeous, wise, and caring “big sister” of the group who I would love to hug and talk about my problems with. I love how she has a green motif and is the soft-spoken and laid back member of the group who doesn’t like confrontation (just like me) despite being the leader of the group. It’s so refreshing to see a fictional leader who isn’t all cheerful, happy-go-lucky and outgoing like most fictional leaders I’ve seen so far (especially the pink leaders I would see in most magical girl shows). At first I thought that the stag aegis would be the leader of the group, but boy was I in for a surprise! I bet that the stag aegis holder will be a descendant of the original creator of the aegis spell book who will be the girls’ wise mentor, no doubt 😉 (just like Master Fu, but wiser, braver, and more caring to their mentee(s) when it comes to their own personal safety who doesn’t use them as a shield from their problems or let them give out magic powers like free candy).

Tanks and fighters are great, but everyone should know that the support heroes are the backbone of this society. If they tell you "don't go into the bbeg's lair without a plan" but you do anyway, you back not come back crying later asking for them to heal you. Don't take support and healers for granted! You'll never know how much you depend on their support until they refuse to give it to you. And also, nothing is more scary than the kind and mild mannered healer going absolutely feral. Love that for them

My thoughts on Ulara is -She's SUCH A GORGEOUS GODDESS I WANNA WORSHIP- ...I mean in all seriousness I like her crown alot and glad you used minimal detailing as it makes her look regal but more humble.
