The element in the dragoon of Darkness should have the potential to be dark. Sometimes you need to sacrifice your heart and mind to cut a path and to aid others. This is my character in Dragoon mode. But only when she’s seriously pissed does she ever look like this. I drew her in a manic possessed persona, because battle would bring out the inner most darkness in anyone. Especially to protect those they love. So, because my character is Rose incarnate and rightfully takes her place as the next Darkness Dragoon, she discovers what it takes to win in war. And it’s never as beautiful or romantic as depicted in books or legends.

Though I liked Rose and her many additions and attacks, but I sort of got the feeling she wasn’t using her element to the full potential. So I treated that idea in my story. My character has constant flashbacks that relate to her past life and towards the end of my story, is processed by the spirit of Rose. After that she learns to switch off between Rose and herself consciously when the situation calls for it. Finally they learn that both consciousness’ simultaneously combined finally are enough to unleash the Darkness Dragoon’s full power.
