Black Ice! True Demon, Mikage

Description

Unfortunately for ya'll, this is a sketch. But, it was fun working on.

So, I bet some of ya'll, upon seeing my charas, thought, "So, what, they're demons? They look like people, AND they all look the same!"
You're right. What I've been drawing til now has been regular Demons of Ceres. They tend to take a more mystic or human appearance to avoid confrontations more often.
Seeing as they look similar to Tsukuyomi, there's no question why that is. xD

So, another thing a few of you might be saying is, "Hold up! Isn't Mikage a half-breed?"
That's a yes. Normally, he can't access this form. Actually, it's physically impossible for him to, as he would just die from organ failure (some complications only happen for some lol).
But, if he WERE ever able to access this form, this'd what it'd look like. Roughly.
It's a sketch, after all. xD

The difference between Mikage and Kage is small, but notable, in terms of forms. For Kage, both his arms and legs have a bigger balance/recovery potential to them, as he's built as a frail (but incredibly speedy) lightweight. However, the power balance is equal for him, as he attacks with everything and anything half the time. He parkours' a lot as well (for obvious reasons).
Mikage's form is a bit different.
See those ribs sticking out? They're meant to put more power into his hips and legs, since he's a Martial Artist who specializes in kicks. (This makes him Shuyri's counterpart in more ways than one, as Shuyri masters in fist-based attacks, and SOME sweeps) They make him somewhat prone to lung injuries, however.
However, this makes his balance much worse in comparison, although the icicle extensions on his legs help him balance a teensy bit better.
They're more for piercing. In this form, Mikage can make use of the Sheer Drill Kick, which basically involves placing the claws of his feet together to kick down at an enemy, then dislodge the extensions via a 'flicking' kind of motion (which basically disembowels the enemy/prey). So yeah, Mikage would hate this form. xD

They both have a somewhat dirty fighting style, as they both make a hefty use of sweeps and stun-based moves (hence why there are ice crystals on their elbows).
But, in this form (which Kage and Mikage share (somewhat) due to being of the same species), they can use another attack, exclusive to each form.
I already explained Mikage's. Kage's specializes in his tail, as his is even spikier than Mikage's here!
Might I bring to note that all those bits of 'fur' sticking out? Yeah, those are all icicles. Impalement is Kage's theme in this form.

So yeah, there's a reason a Flame-based attack kills the hell out of these guys. xD

TD forms are exclusive to demons. Demons themselves can take a Monster or Demonic/Human-like form, as well as this form. They're the only species of Ceres that have this ability (as even Tsukuyomi, an alien, has two available forms, tops).
This is a similar look to a Monster's human-like form, where they're more Beastly compared to a human-like Demon.

TD forms also are dependant on magic (evidently), stamina and environment. If these guys are out of their element, they can't even go through the transformation, as they wouldn't be able to hold onto it.
The appearances of the form also depends on the Affinity, Elements and Race of said demon. :3
Good times. xD

Any demon can have a TD form. Their body-type/power-type just determines how long they can hold it. x3

Mikage's form is called Black Ice due to the deadly potential of the Sheer Drill Kick, and his colour scheme, btw. Kage looks a bit different, but his colour scheme changes entirely.
For Mikage, he's a bit darker than his fur colour normally is, excluding his eyes, which glow white when in TD form. :3

You're just that close to drawing anthros!

This looks pretty nice. The only thing I would say is that the face looks really human shaped. Not sure if that's inteded or not.
