More Blurstuffs

I intend for Blur to be a supernatural story with some horror over/undertones. The great thing about writing a supernatural story that actually has a plot behind it is that I can reuse all my supernatural-type characters who have been in stories with no plot behind them.

For example, consider Alistair!


For those of you who don't know or don't remember him, he was a character of NaNoWriMo '09. In the end, he ended up being a kind of interesting, if cliche concept (A kind of immature Obi-Wan for a whole bunch of clueless high school kids who had a run-in with the supernatural) that went terribly, terribly wrong and misused.

In Blur, he is planned to be a kind of spirit guide for the people who find themselves trapped in... the setting. His personality and character is further fleshed out and he doesn't appear and disappear as a deus ex machina--he's there for the long run.

So I decided to give him a bit of a redesign to fit with the plot better. Don't look at the bottom drawing too long or the anatomy flaws will kill you like a knife to the eye.
