sooooooo yeah here's something I've had on my mind for a loooooooooooooong time
since my boy Apollyon is a demon, I figured out he needed to have followers of some sort in order to keep him alive since he feeds on people's souls or something I guess, well with enough followers you get a cult so this is where I wanna reach, the one in the pic is my shark character Bob who had the bad luck of being the first one claimed by Apollyon, now with his whole soul drained his sole purpose is to find more targets and potential followers for his deity in order to keep his strength, now if we talk about positions Bob is pretty much the lowest rank on all of the cult, this being an acolyte, the ones with this rank receive a cool cursed mask, a shiny body that keeps you alive despite being a soulless being, and a big spiky blade on your tail if you have one, on the other side acolytes do not have any thoughts, no own will and no way of getting out of the trance by any chance even if somehow the mask is removed

I had so much fun doing this, expect to have more of this soon cause I'll try to work on a lore for my oc and a class scheme for the higher ranks of the cult :))

also yeah this is a sketch but I do liked the result so that's why I didn't moved it to scraps
