Description
Herc is a bit more complicated than most characters I have tried to design because he is contradictory. He acts like a holy warrior, but he's actually a Demon of the Moon, so I took him a bit slower and just started adding parts to him.He was created as Ricky became a Demon by expelling everything he didn't want like his negative emotions, sense of guilt and responsibility, and Morality, as such Herc is also Demonic in nature with Black and white eyes and a more evil than good thought process. The problem is, in my world, when an extremely powerful demon is created an equilly powerful Angel is created to balance it out and to hunt them down. Herc has the Angel mentality making him an angel trapped in a Demon's body. As you can imagine making him look demonic and holy is difficult to say the least and throwing in he's the Moon. Ugh. But I kinda like how this concept came out. My thought process was if he's holy and demonic he needs a lot of Black and White contrast all over him. It's going to be even harder when he gets older and becomes the God of Vengeance and Justice because even those two roles sound like they counter each other.

Appearance wise I think he looks really good. The color changes and face markings you added really made a difference from the sketch on your Tumblr, but I thought that was good for your first ever sketch of him. That armor looks really cool too, it goes well with his connection to the moon. (Wait, is that why his guardian Tyr has a crescent moon on his chest?

I already know his story, that's the easy part. Yes, Tyr has a moon on his chest because Ricky and Herc are the moon kids. Herc's only goal in life is to try and destroy Ricky while his Guardian Tyr's goal is to try and make Herc calm down, make him act like a human being and "Retire." He's focused and hates people and has a rather black and white view of good and evil. If someone does something that makes their Karma to Black (He can see Morality) he will want to destroy them without a second thought.
Herc is made of Guilt so there is another character that he follows obediently since she is a creation of Guilt as well, and because the other character wants Ricky gone he has no problem following her orders. There are very few things that would make him have a moral conflict.

Wow, hes got a much more straightforward way of looking at things then I thought. When it comes to this "other character" the only girls I can think of is Eris or Yui, but they control Karma. So either its someone you've yet to reveal or I'm just brain farting really hard.

I don't think I revealed her. nope, it's not Yui and Eris, but it is someone they both kinda dislike. This character is Silence and the end of life, basically a killer that does not kill people and the main reason Herc, Ricky's Slayer form, and Tiana's Scarlet form exist., basically the whole story.
