Well wasn't too happy with the previous version: https://howsplendid.deviantart.com/art/Dereck-Yakunun-3... I know there are things that look off with this, but it was meant to be a fun doodle and a concept of what I wanted Dereck to look more like I wanted. Regardless, I'm happy with the result and plan to draw him more in the future ^^
he's also with Lyra, hence the same colored cloak and is the leader of his team: [link] I was even thinking about adding a third member as well. time to get drawing i suppose
