This is a new character, his name is Bandit Byte. Named after the bandages he likes to wear on his ankles mostly. He is the son of Senexa Byte and is the crowned Prince of a desert palace in the Padragan region where Drake lives. Because he's new, his full story is still being worked on, but the basis is that he is a young martial artist who looks up to Drake and aspires to be a hero who protects the world from danger. He trains a lot and has a personality similar to Goku in that sense. But more interestingly, his glossy eyes are beautiful, but blind. He can't see at all, much like Raisha, but like Raisha, he uses his extreme sense of touch and sound and smell to pinpoint where he and his enemies are, like Raisha, he often pretends he can see just fine through his demeanor, which is a lot more outgoing and curious compared to Raisha's calm and humble nature. Unlike Raisha, he focuses on physical training instead of magic.
Trivia: 1. The name Bandit was a placeholder until I realized that it fits with the bands he wears on his ankles, coupled with the name of the pokemon "Salandit", so I decided to keep it.
2. The colors...were almost all wrong. He was supposed to have more reddish hair and nails, and his eyes were meant to be green with purple pupils (originally red, but contrast), but since I couldn't find my Red colored pencil nor Green colored pencil (I'll have to buy more), I went with this instead. I like it though. A friend mentioned the pink makes him look cuter, so I may keep it.
3. His eyes are meant to look like jewels, like glass eyes. That kind of hints as to why he's blind. It's not really why (it's just his eyes simply don't work), but the jewel like appearance is meant to make it clear to onlookers that something is incorrect with his vision. He can still move his iris around to look in various directions, but he usually only does that to give the illusion he can see. He can blink just fine though, and make expressions though.
4. His head is shaped like Mycelia's, but I think this is how I will draw Sevranans (Starmaninjian Snakes in a sense). For the record, the mutation of Mycelia isn't her odd head shape, but the veins all over her body. There are several Dranans that will have this appearance.
5. The bands on his ankles are just for show. They're just part of the outfit he likes to wear. Interestingly they do serve a hidden purpose, in that by bounding his ankles, the blood in his feet intensifies, allowing him to feel the ground much easier. He's been doing it for so many years that it's just become part of him. He initially put them on cause he was told that's how martial artists dress.
6. Like his mother, he speaks with a very strong lisp. enunciating the s sound.
