Wizma - Blog Posts
hey remember when i said i was gonna work through posting my backlog of shovel knight OCs and then i didn't do that anyway ig continuing with the theme of mothers, here is Seria. she is Wizma's mother and also the absolute worst she was a powerful, narcissistic oracle from the same planet as Cardia, and the one who led her to King Knight via a false prophecy, scheming to create a power struggle and win favour by bringing a hero of her own to this end, she took on human form and lived on their planet, having a daughter she would raise to be a powerful mage. she lied to her daughter that successive generations of seers would invoke a curse, scaring Wizma off from using oracle magic and discovering the truth however, this happened anyway when Wizma's magic became proficient enough to protect her subconsciously. exposed, Seria switched to plan B and prepared a hex to drain her daughter's mana and lifeforce. but at the last moment, Wizma was instinctively able to deflect it, taking heavy damage to her eyes and magic ability in the process. struck by her own hex, Seria was petrified on the spot, forever frozen in a look of terror i made this character like 6 months ago and still haven't drawn a proper ref for her whoops. i'm trying to avoid giving exact years for anything with my OCs but Seria's death is roughly a decade before the events of SKTT so Wizma was like early-mid teens when that happened
Wizma also gets to be in pocket dungeon ooo surprise
this was from last november to celebrate one year since i first posted bullet knight and wizma on discord (november 8th) which can also be their anniversary. timeline-wise i see this being like a year or two after the vaguely-defined present but it's OCs without much story so time isn't real
wizma if she was also getting freaky on a friday knight
bullet knight if she was getting freaky on a friday knight
what if they were FISH
happy valentine's day, have more of my gay shovel knight OCs for the most part i don't wanna post art from more than like a few months ago on here but i wanted to post this one from last valentine's day because i feel like it really puts into perspective how much you can improve in a year
granted that one was in a meme pose so i put less effort into it but still, big difference in ability
trying out a new art style, here's some sketches of bullet knight and wizma to start off with
also ig on tumblr this is the first i've shown of bullet knight's face... she's half cat and this is about as much expression as you'll get from her 90% of the time
Bullet Knight and Wizma, my Shovel Knight OCs*
A couple hailing from faraway lands, who moved to the valley shortly before the events of King of Cards.
Bullet Knight is a powerful warrior who alternates between swift melee attacks or flying out of reach while firing magic energy projectiles she calls bullets. Outside of combat she is a calm and kind soul, though due to her unexpressiveness and aggressive resting face, she tends to unnerve others accidentally. Due to this (among other factors), she has had difficulty forming relationships with other people.
Wizma is a talented magician/researcher devoted to the study of magic, but with one small problem - years ago she was cursed, and her mana capacity has been gradually shrinking ever since. By now she can only innately cast weak spells, and using rituals "just isn't the same". She is temperamental and untrusting, but over time she has let Bullet Knight close to her heart, and perhaps she could slowly start letting others into her life as well.
I haven't really posted art publicly before but I've been making stuff with these two in some discord servers for over a year so I have a bit of a backlog to put here over time, although I might filter out some of the stuff I'm not as confident in for now.
*Any perceived resemblance of Bullet Knight and Wizma to the duo protagonists of another game franchise is actually just a hallucination or the perceiver being crazy or smth idk
(if you just stumbled across this don't worry about it)
