Now, onto what you're aiming for:

For this contest you will draw my OC, Aki aka CHAOS. You have complete freedom to draw him as you see fit.

If you want to draw both Aki and his twin (Yuri), I have one ref for Yuri which is a commission that janirotluvx did for me. You can find it here: i.imgur.com/AEbUq.jpg Yuri is the one who is upside down and Aki is the one who is rightside up.

Background -

Created for the sole purpose of war, Aki is stripped of everything that would be called, 'natural'. He as well as his elder twin Yuri were not born naturally, but created by scientists in a underground laboratory funded by the Union Government. Their only purpose, to be what they were created to be, weapons.

Aki is a gentle and warmhearted soul, a complete opposite of what his creators want him to be. The very sight and smell of death turns his stomach and he often gets sick because of it. It's not till he taps into the weapon (CHAOS) that has been implanted in him that his dark and more sinister side seeps out.

Other tidbits: Aki's CHAOS form is with the horns while his normal form is without. There are other things that changes when he's in CHAOS form, like his right eye. The pupil changes to a tribal design, but I have yet to get a ref with it. But it is a cross.

EDIT/ If you would like to learn more on Aki and the story itself, please head here: soulgear.tumblr.com/ Navigation is to the right and this is where I'll be uploading chapters when I get them written. /EDIT

I'm afraid that's all the info I can give you about Aki without giving away too many spoilers of my story. (Currently in planning stages)
