[EDIT] - I'll be cleaning this up and messing with it some more, adding pics an stuff like that to the thread. User Image

This is my main character, Yugu Fang. ( My most up to date picture, trust me I have better ones somewhere ... )

Okay, um .. Very very deep storyline to my manga, I've either planned to draw it all out, which I have but havent finished, or just write the book and get it published.

The story is basically about two characters, one of them is of course, Yugu.
The other person is the story is a girl the kingdom calls : Fallnphionex. ( Yes, that's actually how her name is spelled. ) I don't seem to have a pic of her on photobucket. D: So here, I drew her on YouTube ...

I tried to screen-shot her - ( The red circles is proof that she and the video are infact mine. )

And heres the drawing video.

Anyways, ( starting from the very very begining ... ) Three elders had found this continent that they live in today, since then, they've built the cities, pastures, grew crops, grew trees, you name it. Later, they had a castle built for themselves, and they stay there, they never leave, they watch over everything that goes on in The Kingdom of Calm.

Each of them had great power within them, the only problem is that two of the three brothers refuse to get along. One brother wants to enslave mankind, have them do all the work for them, he suggests filling the world with demons and cursing the living. Thus the demons were born.

As you can see, the character, Yugu has his dog ears. You could guess that he's one of these demons, but he's not. He was one of the cursed. He later seeks out the elders to have his curse removed, but it all backfires.

Their world is slowly becoming an unlivable one for human. While all this is going on, a outbreak occurs, demons begin spreading a disease called Tulip Virus X. The virus is a plague, slowly killing off humans who have come in contact with nearbye demons. Later the king ( Yes, theres a king too. ) decides to banish all demons from within the kingdom. Little did he know that his one and only daughter ( Phionex. ) had become cursed by the evil elder himself.

----

Now, Yugu, and Phionex do not have curses that kill, like the Tulip Virus. The curses they are given are more like gifts, but are also dangerous.

Yugu was cursed with powers of the moon. He could harness the moon's power and use it for fighting and healing. The drawback : Every full moon, he goes crazy, turning into his other self, thus gaining the name : Lunar Yugu.

Phionex was cursed with the powers of blood. Basically she can manipulate the blood in every living thing's bodies. I'll put it this way : She can either heal you ; or kill you.

She becomes the only one able to heal "The afflicted" as they called the cursed/diseased ones.
----

Okay so you remember I said that Yugu goes to the elders to have his curse removed, the evil brother claims that he could take the curse away but only if Yugu did something for him. Of course, Yugu takes the job, He goes on a retrieval mission to find " The girl with one red eye" ( ... Guess who?! ) Fallnphionex.

I don't really want to go and spoil all of it, but later they fall in love.

This is all I have for now - any questions, lemme know. Critique is welcome even though I used really bad pictures for Yugu. ( I'll post a video to a very recent drawing of him and his rival, Leon.

.:~EDIT~:.

Okay so I went through what I had in photobucket for pics of the characters and i'm adding more on the storyline.

User Image

Here is the Phionex in the beggining of the story, after she had been kicked out of the castle by her father, the king. ( Yes, she's a princess. )

Later on when Yugu starts to fall for her and they become really good friends, he helps her disguise herself. He dresses her in pink and black clothing. ( Which you see in my video. ) And dyes her hair black.

They're disguising her so that she can wander freely back into her kingdom without being recognized.

Okay, so, I haven't really explained the reasons for Yugu being part wolf, first off me and my fiance, share the same characters, so there are many, many different stories about Yugu and Phionex. ( Kind of like The Legend of Zelda, ya know? ) Theres about 5 or 6 books, by the way.

Okay so, in in my fiance's book, Blood Stained Moon, the demons are the people who have a certain animal trait, mostly wolves, like yugu here. Yugu in that story had the power to change into a wolf form. In that story the full moon was also introduced as yugu's downfall. ( Makes him crazy on full moons. )

The books and comics have gone on an on just like that, each time the story changes little by little, and so does each curse. In my Manga, Moonlit Inprisonment, the ears simply mark yugu as a demon. Something else you must understand is the ranks of each demon. You have the full blood, which is.. Ya know, pure blood. Mutts, such as Yugu are mixed and weaker than most demons. Then you have demons that were there by chance and are almost completely useless. ----

Back to the story, Yugu as i've said is a Mutt. He only recieves full power on the full moon, but has no control over what he does. That's pretty much why the ears are there on his head. Just a little explanation is all, as I slowly explain the very, very deep storyline of MI.

Pretty good i like

.um what time frame it looks like the princess in dressed in medevil cloths while lunar seems to have modern days cloths on.(i only took a quick look so correct me if i missed something)

.in some parts you seem to get close to inuyasha(close!only close giving a same power ya just have to change its base to suit your story(which youve done!).

Oh, yeah, I see.

Heh.. I guess you could say I threw in a mix with the clothing? XD I wouldnt say its based on a medival theme, its more of a totally different world.

And well, Inuyasha, was too a demon, but Yugu here, is cursed with a demonic property, I guess you could call it.

In two of prolly about 4 of his books ( underground books ) written by my fiancee, well, he could transform into a full wolf, and even if I just say that, the same thing that jus happened will happen again only people would be like " That's like Zelda! Dx" lol. >.> I dunno, I guess im jus saying I thought about this matter before, and am trying to steer far away from anyone elses story. XD
