After doing a lot of research on the story of. well. you know. vintage story, I started adding in that lore into my private multiplayer server. A lot of my friends are artists, so we'll see if I can convince them to post here too. Either way say hi to
Vine!! The father of the family. His name (like the rest of the names of our family of seraphs) isn't his real name, but he doesn't remember what the original was from his previous, human, life. He's a tailor, cook, and a bit emotionless nowadays - but he loves his family terribly despite the circumstances of this strange world they have all awoken in.
Next is Vine's wife, Brisket!
She's a spunky woman! Neither Vine nor Brisket remember how they met or fell in love, but Vine theorizes it was an 'opposites attract' sort of situation. They aren't too romantic with each other nowadays considering how busy they are at the home, but they always have each other's back. She's the hunter to Vine's cook, always bringing back a huge haul of animals for Vine to butcher and turn into delicious stews and pies.
Now for their children. Despite both of the kids having pretty vague genders, Vine just calls them both his sons.
First is the older child, who hasn't remembered their name yet nor have they figured out a temp name. Instead, their current nickname is just. 'Miserable Miku'. I'm sure you can see why once you see them.
Miku's a bit of a wildcard. They're typically the miner and forager, having been known as a malefactor from before all the family's untimely demise. Apparently Miku spent some time as a blackguard, but how they went from blackguard to malefactor is currently forgotten. They also have a knack for the arts, being the one who chisels the home into shape.
And now we have the younger sibling - Petra!
The Clockmaker and blacksmith of the family. Compared to their older sibling, Petra is a bit more cheery and interested in their dad's work - after all, Vine and Petra spend the most time at home, one cooking with meat and the other cooking with iron. Despite their sweeter and confident disposition, Petra is still very, very stressed. Being the blacksmith and clockmaker for a whole family means a lot of time building complicated contraptions. They may or may not have picked up a drinking habit.
The final 'member' of the family is not really a part at all. Storm is Vine's (and by extension, the rest of the family's) bodyguard.
He's a powerful Blackguard, with a mostly stony disposition. Although in their old lives he and Vine had a purely professional relationship, the new situation after becoming Seraphs is more like friends between them now.
Oh, and this is where we live!
Say thanks to Petra for building the house! Pretty good eye for detail, probably got it from Vine despite his inability to understand architecture. Vine is married to clothes and clothes only - well, and Brisket.
And that's it for now! There's a lot more art (and maybe even more characters!) that you'll see, but rn it's good just to get introduced to the players of this story. why, perhaps its even a VINTAGE STOR-
(I'm the one who drew Vine and the header. All other art is drawn by my friends in the server!)
