One of Satan's personal attendants. He accompanies Cheizou back to Erets to assist in recovering the souls of the Archons.

The irritable and short-tempered straight man of the duo. He has a soft heart underneath the prickly exterior. He attempts to take the lead in most situations, but he's not as clever as he lets on and usually defers to Mezuro in the end.

He most often appears as a small imp-like creature with pale white and brown fur and feathered wings. Other forms follow a similar pattern to this. In combat he takes the form of a large winged lion-like beast. Rarely he takes on a humanoid form.

SIRE Decephi
SIBLINGS None
CHILDREN Teres

Former partner of Kaigaerron, sire of Teres, and adoptive parent of Peresh and Aereikah.

He first met Kaigaerron as a child when she would accompany her father Korbvosoe, the oracle of the Eanez, on missions to Als. They became fast friends, although Geisuton's parents were hesistant to let him get too involved with the Eanez. Kaigaerron's dam Mayana later decided to flee the Eanez and brought her child with her to Als, where she begged Ranshe to grant them asylum. Ranshe agreed to let them stay and refused to give in to Korbvosoe's demands to return them to him, which ultimately destroyed the friendly relationship that had developed between Als and the Eanez. Geisuton and Kaigaerron were able to grow up together as a result of this, and eventually became partners.

Geisuton and his blood relatives are collectively referred to as the Debvhusheo, a family that traces it's lineage back to the earliest recorded history of Als. At least some of their descendants are believed to have lived at the Palace continuously since it's inception, and as such they are often deferred to as the guides of the colony.

He is calm, studious, and soft-hearted, especially towards children and lesser demons. He spends much of his time in the library maintainig the texts stored there or writing about his own observations. He knows a great deal about the history and ecology of Erets, and his upbringing instilled a healthy respect for Satan in him. Cheizou studies under him alongside Ampitae and Aoulon.

He most often appears in a humanoid form with dark black fur with leopard spots and long curly hair. He sometimes takes the form of a large dragonoid creature with green scales and black fur. Other forms typically have green and black fur, scales, or feathers.

Usually cheerful and carefree, he is always level-headed and decisive when it really matters, and is dangerous when provoked. Asera trusts his judgement and is uncharacteristically placid towards him.

He most often appears as a small imp-like creature with brown and black fur and bat-like wings. Other forms follow a similar pattern to this. In combat he takes the form of a large winged lion-like beast. Rarely he takes on a humanoid form.

SIBLINGS Aereikah
CHILDREN Cheizou, Kiash

A former kautior who was rescued and adopted by Geisuton and Kaigaerron. He is the blood sibling of Aereikah and adopted sibling of Teres.

He is thoughtful, patient, and a bit of a romantic. He doesn't hold grudges and dislikes conflict. He seems quiet at first glance but can be very animated when he feels comfortable. He continues to love clothing and accessories even after coming of age, which is seen as a childish trait in Als. His affable and self-sacrificial nature can sometimes cause problems for him as others come to rely on him for support, while he rarely feels that he can ask for anything in return. He's not quick to trust just anyone, but is easily taken advantage of by those who are close to him.

Kaigaerron would shower Peresh with gifts, sneak him more food, give him longer breaks from his work, anything to win his favor and make him feel indebted to her. They enter into an affair behind the backs of their family, which is later revealed when Kaigaerron decides to take Peresh with her to rejoin the Eanez. This destroys his relationship with Aereikah, who despises Kaigaerron and believed Peresh to be the only one who truly understood her. He eventually returns to Als with Cheizou (who is disguised as Kiash) after Cheizou is exiled by Kaigaerron.

He most often appears in a humanoid form with bright white fur and pale brown tiger stripes with a bushy tail. To hunt he takes the form of a large white tiger-like animal with similar patterning. While living with the Eanez he takes the form of a silver borzoi.

The only child of Geisuton and Kaigaerron, adopted sibling of Peresh and Aereikah, and half-sibling by blood of Cheizou and Kiash.

Boisterouos and lascivious, he takes after his grandparent Ranshe more than either of his parents. He can be handsy to an uncomfortable degree, and will often say vulgar or provocative things with little regard for public decency, but he is nonetheless kind and reliable.

He most often appears in a humanoid form with leopard spotted fur and long dark hair. He sometimes prefers to appear as a large pink cat with long fur, ape-like teeth, and eight arms and ten eyes like that of a spider. Other forms follow a similar pattern to this.

SEX Male
SPECIES Dalmatian

Lead researcher at the university where Elliot studied. One night while he and his team are trying to figure what exactly she has become, Maric falls asleep in the room where she is being kept and dreams of her "entering" his body and killing him. When he wakes up the next moring he discovers the newborn USB90910 between her legs.

SEX Female > Undefined
SPECIES Cocker Spaniel > Mycocyon cinerea

A mysterious zombified being. Her body was recovered from the site of a flood and landslide that destroyed a remote jungle village. From a few tattered articles of clothing found near her at the time, she was eventually determined to be Elliot Arnalds, an alumni from Maric's university who was conducting fieldwork at the time. It was written in her will that her body should be donated to the university after her death, so she was sent to Maric's team to be studied.

SEX Undefined
SPECIES Mycocyon cinerea

The offspring of USB90909. Like 90909 her body is completely indestructable, but she is able to locomote on her own. She seems singlemindedly focused on reproducing copies of herself, which she does by burying herself in soil and sprouting root-like structures from her ears and tail, from which the copies grow.

Falling asleep near her or her copies can be dangerous as she is capable of transforming living beings into comatose, zombified versions of themselves, although what causes her to do this is poorly understood since it seems to only happen rarely and at random. She is otherwise harmless as an individual, although her out of control reproduction and inability to be destroyed poses an immense threat to the environment.

The original USB is kept by Maric for study and he grows attached to her. She is sometimes seen wearing a collar with a tag that reads "01" to differentiate her from her copies. Maric's niece Maria has also been known to dress her in doll clothes.

SEX Female
SPECIES Droolik

Monster's petpet.

He found her loitering next to a tombstone in a graveyard one night and dragged her home with him against her will. Her body is covered in scars, likely inflicted by her previous owner, although Monster has only added to the collection since then.

SEX Male
SPECIES Halloween Aisha

A young thief born and raised in the Haunted Woods.

His master was a sadistic person, gave him a degrading name, and forced him into a life of scavenging and pick-pocketing to support their Godori habit. His thieving prowess was eventually noticed by a Darigan Bori named Voromahery, the leader of the Haunted Woods arm of the Thieves Guild, who was so impressed that he asked the Aisha to consider joining the Guild. Monster didn't hesitate to accept the offer and abandoned his master without a second thought.

While he is indeed a capable thief, the Guild soon discovers that he is also easily distracted, and prefers to amass heaps of useless garbage rather than valuables. Kleptomaniacal, street-smart, and yet more than a little stupid, he often stashes toys and other coveted shinies away in his own secret hoard at the Guild base. Voromahery occasionally hunts down this pile to discard the trash or pawn things off for a quick buck, much to Monster's dismay.

SEX Male
SPECIES Darigan Bori

Leader of the Haunted Woods arm of the Thieves Guild.

Formerly a pirate, he was one day approached by a member of the Terror Mountain Thieves Guild who was seeking to recruit new members. He agreed to join because he felt like the job seemed cushier than life on the sea. He slowly worked his way up in rank, eventually setting his sights on becoming head of the Guild, although his hopes were dashed when Kanrik killed Galem and took over as leader instead. Since outing Kanrik was untenable for the time being, he approached another thief in his rank named Tsikoza with plans to revive the Haunted Woods chapter of the Guild. Seeing it as an opportunity to relive her youth, Tsikoza agreed and the two moved into the decrepit former base in the Haunted Woods. Together they set about recruiting new blood around the area.

Despite appearances, he is surprisingly considerate of his subordinates, although he instantly regrets recruiting Monster after realizing what a handful he is. The two of them argue frequently. He has a much younger sister named Koulourakia who he used to support from afar with the money he made as a pirate and thief, but once she grew older she starting seeking him out and insisting that she join the Guild to repay him. Although he adamantly refused and told her to stay home, she eventually shows up on his doorstep in the Haunted Woods anyway, giving him no more choice in the matter.

SEX Male
SPECIES "Wolfdog"

An outgoing young boy who often struggles to coexist with others. Socially and physically clumsy but otherwise meticulous to a fault, he comes across as more naïve than he really is because of his tendency to withdraw into his own world. He likes dark spaces, reading, and being outdoors, and hates being watched, cold weather, and restrictive clothing.

He's precocious for his age, which seems to be the source of many of his interpersonal problems. He is pliant with females and pathologically aggressive towards males, and always refuses to be penetrated unless forced or coerced. He will take any opportunity to strip naked and has been known to masturbate absentmindedly as a force of habit. He loves his sister MAIM to an obsessive degree, but she rejects him for reasons he doesn't quite understand, and ultimately he dies by her hand.

His default form is that of a chubby anthro dog boy of indeterminate breed (I call him a "wolfdog" but he wasn't based on any breed in particular), aged approximately 8 to 10 years old. He's sometimes depicted as a baby or toddler, but is rarely if ever depicted as an adult since he dies before reaching adulthood in most canons.

I landed on the name CRUSH because I liked the contrast of a cute character having an intimidating name, although how intimidating it really is depends on whether you assume the etymology is "destruction" or "infatuation." It is intended to be stylized in all caps but this isn't strictly necessary.

The name Cheizou is only used in the setting of Crushing Lust where he is a shapeshifting demon. He can appear in his default "wolfdog" form in this setting, so any artwork of this form could be either CRUSH or Cheziou depending on context. In essence, Cheizou is always a version of CRUSH, whereas CRUSH is not always Cheizou. If he is depicted in a modern environment or wearing modern clothing he is only referred to as CRUSH and not Cheizou.

In Crushing Lust he is more often than not disguised as his sister Kiash in the form of a pale, skinny kemonomimi girl with blue eyes, silver hair, and the ears and tail of a borzoi. He is referred to as Kiash by other characters when he's in this form, but the real Kiash has a different humanoid appearance.

In modern AUs, rather than being resurrected from the dead after being killed by MAIM, he instead miraculously recovers from a vegetative brain death state that doctors believed he wouldn't be able to come back from. His mother, MURDER, is convinced that his body was reanimated and is being puppeted around by the devil. Compared to Crushing Lust where her suspicions about him being the devil are actually correct, in this world she is simply delusional.

I designed his anthro form some time in 2017, but I've technically had this character for decades because I merged many aspects of my childhood persona into him. The design of his disguised form as Kiash is nearly identical to that original persona, and the world and other characters in Crushing Lust were carried over from her backstory to his, although most of the plot was rewritten specifically for him.

SEX Female
SPECIES Shapeshifter

Human-animal hybrid created by an artificial intelligence. Most often she looks like a dog sphinx but she can take other forms as well. When she hallucinates her form can get a little smeary. She's usually seen wearing a Louis Vuitton collar.

Based on a weird AI-generated picture of a dog girl sphinx I stumbled across on Twitter.

SEX Male
SPECIES Boar

A savage boar who claims Dwaekki as his mate.

I created him to have a sona to pair with Dwaekki. He's basically modelled after Changbin himself. A xyston is a type of spear, which is a reference to the "chang" part of his name meaning "spear."
