"For a moment or two I could see nothing, as the shadow of a cloud obscured St. Mary’s Church and all around it. Then as the cloud passed I could see the ruins of the abbey coming into view; and as the edge of a narrow band of light as sharp as a sword-cut moved along, the church and the churchyard became gradually visible. Whatever my expectation was, it was not disappointed, for there, on our favourite seat, the silver light of the moon struck a half-reclining figure, snowy white."
Mina and Lucy in the kirkyard at Whitby, August 11th.

Between commissions I finally managed to finish this OC set of parent characters! If the looks aren't enough to show you who their kid is, the background colors match them ^_^ but of course more details below!
Name: Thuban
Name origin: The former pole star, before the north star (Polaris), it's name means "Large snake" and is referred to as the “Dragon's tail”
Pronouns: He/him
Age: N/A
Relation: Raised Polaris, though they're not related by blood and have a somewhat distant relationship, until he suddenly went MIA
Weapon: Spear (Same as Polaris's)
Ethos (Power): N/A
Flaw power is based on: N/A
Notes: Make no phallic jokes about the large snake thing and you'll be rewarded
Name: Ananke
Name origin: A moon of Jupiter, named for the mythological spirit of necessity, inevitably, and compulsion
Pronouns: She/her
Age: -
Relation: Bella's mother, she raised her to be a warrior
Weapon: Bardiche
Ethos (Power): Indomination (The ability to freeze the movement of objects and people, and lock them in place)
Flaw power is based on: Her strict enforcement of obedience through authoritarianism, and a lack of concern for the wishes of others

[ID: a digital drawing of Sumire Yoshizawa from persona 5 royal, leaping and posing with a needle-shaped sword. Her costume is redesigned: her hair is out and free flowing, her mask is white with a gold outline and outlined with black stitching, Her jacket is a dark purple and trimmed with gold on the outside and dark magenta on the inside. The buttons are replaced with safety pins, and her sleeves are detached as if ripped, held together with criss-crossing gold ribbon. The ends of her sleeves has copious amounts of white frills, and her red gloves are now fingerless. Her leotard is white at the top, resembling a heart, and is stitched on with red thread. A gold chain at her waist holds her black-and-gold sheath, and silver sewing kit adorned with pink roses. She’s wearing white pointe shoes, and the white ribbons are worn over black tights, criss-crossed all the way up to her knees. The artist’s signature is at her shoulder. End ID]
gave Sumire a second outfit, because it’s bullshit how she didn’t get one after her second awakening
