UMAE 2024 - Mayhem Highland

    Here's another character from GTALT I am bringing back into canon: Mayhem... Mayhem? Who's Mayhem? Basically GTALT was a mix of Undertale and Deltarune that had Jevil in it. The thing is that this was my own interpretation of Jevil. So I figured why not take the design I drew and repurpose it for an original character? Plus you could argue GTALT Jevil wasn't actually Jevil. Either way, here's mayhem, a Chaos devil.

    Mayhem is a rather infamous Devil for those that know of him. He is a unique Chaos Devil who has never really fit in due to antics and habits. Chaos is also a rare affinity for Devils, causing him to face mild prejudice from his kin. Not being one to let people tell him how to live his life, he learned how to use his abilities and set out for the realm of Chaos. It is here where he proceeded to throw himself up against a wall for several centuries in non linear time.

    Why was Mayhem in such a dangerous realm? Simple, he wanted to become a Discordant God of Chaos by challenging one of the gods for their title. No one had the heart to tell him he was in way over his head, so he kept going for some time. Naturally the Discordant Gods that fought him would easily defeat him. Discordant War was one he clashed with the most. Of course the god admired the devil's moxie and began secretly training him with each encounter.

    After an adventure with a jabberwock and Spiritus Magni Maxima, Mayhem would return to Hell of Universe-23 and settle down for a bit. He would also take the chance to explore the bizarre realm known as The Unlight after reading about the adventures of Gabriella Pari.

    In regards to his weapons, these are a pair of machetes he forged himself... with help from a blacksmith devil by the name of Cliff. These blades allow him to channel his power in the form of blue and yellow fire. The magical fire extends the machetes into full blown swords that can burn anything. As for his magic aside from his chaos fire ability, he is adept at Necromancy. Typically he either asks high ranking demons for help or outright summons them to grant him their boons.

Mayhem: I see... have you ever considered taking a break? Say, a week off to practice?

Will: Uh... yes?

Mayhem: Then why haven't you?

Will: Because websites are super aggressive with their algorithms and...

Mayhem: Algorithm schmalgortihm! If they can't handle the fact that you need some time off to practice, then to Hell with them.

Will: Well... I could upload something I know will get views, then use that as an excuse to take a week off...

Mayhem: Not a bad idea. In all seriousness, you need to follow your path, not the path they say you should follow.

    Mayhem is an interesting fellow in regards to personality. He is very boisterous, bold, and fearless. These traits stem from his attitude of refusing to quit, no matter what the odds are. Although in recent times he has shown a degree of temperance. This may stem from past events and adventures of his. When Mayhem is not out in the open and fully energized, he's actually a very thoughtful and intellectual individual. Ask him for a moment and he will happily sit down to talk with you. Contrary to his antics, he does have a logical side. How can one be a chaos devil without some degree of order? His past escapades in the realm of Chaos could not have happened without him thinking about his actions.

    As for where the two are, that would be The League headquarters. This clandestine organization was founded by Abraham Van Helsing and serves as a protector of the world amongst multiple other organizations/corporations such as The Liger Brigade, The Devil's Brew Coven, M.A.I.G., and Maddox Heavy Industries. Normally Abraham seeks out individuals he deems as extraordinary for League membership... So why is Will here? Abraham seems to know Will from a time long before the mage was born. This connection is what caused Abraham to make Will an honorary member of The League. Of course this has led to some friction with the other members, but Abraham and Ellen the Wayward both insist on Will's presence.

    Yes... this is vent art. It's literally in the title, ha. No, I am not feeling burnt out. I just feel under a lot of pressure for my art to be AMAZING 10/10 PERFECT BEYOND EXPECTATIONS THE GREATEST ART EVER!!! My art is nowhere near that state. I don't feel comfortable taking time off to practice because you all know how this game works: No content, no growth. It's obnoxious...

    Oh hey look, I mentioned Abraham again... don't worry guys, I finally got my hands on Bram Stoker's Dracula and I am going to get around to reading it soon. I also got Frankenstein and Treasure Island... YES, I WILL BE DRAWING DAVID LIVESEY AGAIN IN THE FUTURE. Anyways, it's about high time I actually read the source material for the public domain characters I am using in UMAE.

    Good lord, I think I am going to need a folder of references at this rate... Yes, the chair could have been drawn better. Also I finally drew Haze normal form again. I might make that Will's go to outfit for aesthetic and story reasons. The latter is pretty important in this context.


The typo fix:


Okay, so I partially fixed the typo...
