What you are looking at is the final version of the Fiore's Prison WIP i've worked on for quite a while now, the black "blob" you're probably wondering about is in fact my newest character's first form, "Manifest".
Anubis wrote:
Manifest is simply an inorganic copy of Fiore, created when Fiore escaped his prison – but leaving part of his conscience behind. The Tower in which Fiore was held captive was made of a magical element known as “Living Metal”, that combined with Fiore’s conscience created Manifest.
As a part of Fiore, Manifest knew about him from birth – and wishes to re-unite. He believes that they were created as one, and that they should remain so. Manifest is adamant that this happens, and he will do anything to return to Fiore, whom he calls his “Brother”. Manifest was born on Earth and not Endymia where he originated. Manifest began as a small amount of Living Metal which was being experimented on by Human Scientists in the US Military after they had discovered Endymia on the Tower of Fear. Manifest’s DNA began to develop and the Living Metal slowly turned into a foetus, which grew into Manifest. The US Military saw Manifest as a weapon, and used him to try to wage war against Endymia. Manifest did not obey and “removed” the threat of the US Military.
Manifest, like Fiore, has the ability to shape-shift and control elements at will. A clash between Fiore and Manifest is inevitable – but the outcome is unpredictable as Fiore and Manifest are almost identical.
Can't spend any more time on this scene, as my deadline is the first week of June. The animation for this scene is also done. Manifest (the black "blob") simply drops from the top of the screen, lands with a ripple effect, and sort of slides off the screen.
