So i managed to come back to this challenge with a song that doesn't have vibes that were going to inevitably lead me to drawing an already existing character lmao. I mean, "The Man I Used To Be" still has huge mental ties with the last story I wrote for NaNoWriMo, but at least I wound up with a new character.
Anyways. He's a phoenix from the same story-universe as one of my original stories, and likely was a soldier until he fell in love with a harpy, causing him to question his place in the world, eventually leading to him having a heel-face turn, cutting off his hair, and running away from the Queendom of Night.
