Discord, the Sound Manipulator

Discord and all his forms belong to my story, "White Crow". Do not use without permission!! (seriously though, it's not hard to do XDXDXD)

Another sketch/painting on Corel, only I implemented some Photoshop brushes to add the smokey/smudgy touches. Personally, I like the dirty paper look. But I don't think all of it matches up. I mean I put marks on the staff, but Discord looks too clean. All well.

This is Discord. Of course you might be thinking, "well I thought Discord was the 3 monsters..."

Well actually, this is the form Discord takes when it is purified from the curse of being a monster, and now has full control over what it does.

Let me do a rundown of Discord. Elliot accidentally released the most terrible demon, Ramia, and the most uncontrollable one, Discord, into the world. Discord, the beast, was brought down but not defeated by country leaders. Since they could not defeat it, they suppressed almost all of Discord's powers within itself and put Discord in the form of a Shade. That Shade was nicknamed Jigoku.

Jigoku knew he was the beast, and he knew what the leaders did was the right thing. However, since he was a Shade he couldn't keep away from Ramia for long. Ramia knows he can get a hold of Discord again, if only he can find a vessel for it that can draw out it's powers. And that's pretty much what he plans on using Sly for.

Anyway, you see this human Discord form near the end of the story. After Sly's body was completely destroyed (this was when Sly used his body to become Discord, but Lucian managed to destroy it), this human form emerges from the remains and makes a deal with Lucian. If Lucian can manage to purge himself of the sadness and sorrow within him, and defeat Discord in a fight, then Discord will give up his life to save Sly's.

This was because Discord had no heart before. Discord was just a huge manifestation of guilt and sorrow. But Sly managed to open Discord's heart a lot. Discord almost saw Sly as a son, and would do anything to keep Ramia away from him. But when he found out Sly was going to sacrifice his body, he tried to make it to him in time to stop the transformation but he was too late.

SO he was afraid that Lucian wasn't capable of understanding Sly's pain. Discord wanted to test Lucian and rid him of any doubts within his heart. And if Lucian managed to be Discord's equal in a fight, then he would be reassured that Lucian was capable of protecting Sly from Ramia.

This is probably the second biggest fight in series one.

Awww, who knew one of the biggest villains of series one would turn out to be such a softie?
