This was more or less finished in december 2005. I'll still be working on details though. The guy in the pic is called Kyria and he's what you could call a fallen demon. His close friendship to Lucifer made him go down with him, and he became a demon of grief. But since he never gave in to evil but for loyalty, he was still pure and good and couldn't bare having to kill people's beloved ones. Every murder made the remorse worse, eventually he couldn't bare to look at his victims anymore so he tried to scratch out his own eyes. Despite the many efforts he never lost his sight. Desperate to be released from his task, Kyria broke with Lucifer and started saving people from demons instead. He turned partially back to an angel again but kept some of his demonic looks since heaven didn't want to forgive him. Except for one angel, Atheinaia, who loves him for his courage and tries to get him back where he belongs. But until she succeeds there love will remain impossible... Kyria as a character is fully copyrighted to me.

The shine in the hair looks good, but it’s the flow of the blood that
I like best about this picture. You can never have enough blood!

Kyria is amazing! I like his pose and his tears of blood… it’s so sad to be a devil with a human heart… very beautiful and exceptional 18
