Hi! My name is gekko, I'm a hobby digital artist, currently focused on developing my Hollow Knight AU, the Feral PK AU. However, I occasionally draw things unrelated to the AU, mostly dinosaurs/paleoart and OC related art.

I've been drawing for about 12 years now, and over the years I hopped in and out between different fandoms, before finally settling on Hollow Knight. As of now, I've moved on from regular HK fanart to focus on the AU I created, which over the last year evolved into a personal worldbuilding and character driven project with my favorite characters.

CHARACTER REFERENCES

━━━━༻❁༺━━━━

The Feral PK AU is an alternate universe/timeline which focuses on my interpretation of the character of The Pale King. It is primarily a slice of life AU taking place roughly 10 years after the Embrace The Void ending and the end of the infection.

Vyrm, as that's the name of the character in the AU, survived the infection by going into hibernation, started after his breakdown following his failure to protect the kingdom. 35 years later, he was woken up by The Knight, and after losing his powers he survived on the animals he hunted with his teeth and claws (thus the name of the AU). The infection ended soon after, bringing back peace to Hallownest.

He eventually reunited with Hornet, Holly (The Hollow Knight) and Grimm, who used to be his closest friend while Vyrm was the king. The two were in love but did not get a chance to confess until their reunion, and are now married with children. The whole family resides in Dirtmouth, which saw many renovations thanks to the group effort of its inhabitants and Vyrm's construction plans. Vyrm no longer considers himself the king and is now living a quiet life, trying to cope with his traumatic childhood, the memories of his unhappy marriage to The White Lady and the guilt of his actions during his rule.

There is no comic or a written story behind the AU, my art primarily consists of individual scenes, mostly slice of life related, and infodumps on my Tumblr blog (which I recommend following if you are interested in the AU, and especially if you want to ask questions!). The AU is a personal passion project which uses the Hollow Knight lore as the base, however, it has evolved into a self-contained story. Vyrm, for instance, is no longer referred to as The Pale King in the story, as he has moved on to start a new life. My interpretations of the characters are quite different from their canon counterparts or the most popular fandom interpretations, and the worldbuilding especially is something which I took in a original direction. So please approach with an open mind!
