@Vivisheep asked:

Hiya! Can you tell me about that sheep character you posted before?

heya viv!! i assume you're asking about her, The Maiden!!

her real name is Ophir Arellano, she's 18, 5'1, and born on April 1st. she's one of the members of an in universe church-government-group in Sunsbrooke, split into seven divisions. She's in Division 6, which is responsible for the management and dispersal of several cult groups that plague the town.

Division 6, among other unique traits, is special to the church because of an experimental surgery that all of its members underwent, splitting their single soul into two souls. They then all each underwent a process of imprintation, which is interfacing with patrons (angels and baphomet) and coaxing them to inhabit their souls. they are the only group that have been deemed strong enough to host angels directly, mostly because the soul-splitting dilutes the raw power that angels can put out.

they get one of each, which makes all the Division 6 members able to use both holy and hell magic. something that takes an EXTREME toll on the body.

she's wheelchair bound because her body is kept in an extremely fragile state. the angel who inhabits one of her souls, Anapiel, is an EXCEEDINGLY powerful Diligence Angel, so much so that she near incinerated Ophir from the inside shortly after imprinting on her. Ophir had to be assigned a Sloth Baphomet in an attempt to weaken Anapiel. Which worked, at the cost of causing Ophir to temporarily go comatose.

Ophir currently has access to untapped levels of Angel magic, something that has never been and could not have been studied prior to her imprintation. the only issue is, she does not have a very good handle on managing her powers. she has caused massive property damage to the church, and has endangered its faculty on multiple occasions. so the church is basically treating her like a nuke and trying all sorts of things to ensure that they:

  1. wont lose Ophir (the knowledge they can get from her is unmatched.)
  2. wont disintegrate all of sunsbrooke (angel magic is VERY destructive.)
  3. wont lose other division members (a lot of hard work would go to waste.)

Father Constock, the head of their clergy, is currently teaching her how to channel her angel magic into small healing spells, which has gone relatively well. they've put off training her how to fight using magic for now.

SORRY FOR THE INFO DUMP. DIVISION 6 IS HEAVILY TIED TO SUNSBROOKE LORE. FEEL FREE TO ASK QUESTIONS IN THE COMMENTS IF YOU HAVE ANY !!! AND THANK YOU FOR ASKING!!

oh yeah she's also kind-of-sort-of-but-not-really girlfriends with Alpheus? Their relationships is really sweet. i've wanted to write about it more.

DONT BE SORRY!!! I asked broadly in the hopes I would receive an infodump. I love her design and the backstory is intriguing. Now I want to know even more about Division 6 and the characters within. I know I drew The Sun during Artfight, and I wanted to know a bit more about her too. Perhaps another time? c:

What does a Diligence angel bring to the table that another type wouldn’t? Same question goes for the Sloth Baphomet.

Diligence allows Maiden to speak extremely well, and she is often looked to for advice and advisement within her division. She is exceedingly thoughtful, and her angel grants her a lot of valuable wisdom. It allows her clarity and tact, valuable skills when under high pressure. The Sloth Baphomet was imprinted specifically to combat the power of her angel, and she was originally not planned to host one. Yet, she does. Sloth Baphomet induce a type of magical coma that rapidly atrophies the body, and causes vivid nightmares. They are one of the less mentally destructive Baphomet, though, and are mostly peaceful. Slothful Baphomet have a passive clairvoyant ability, and rational mind that sets them apart from most of their brutal cousins.

i've gone more into depth in a longer post, but thought i'd append the answer here!! ^^ thank you for asking, and you can find that post here if you're interested!: https://cohost.org/POMeGraniteR/post/2402271-decided-to-make-this
