Halloween...a day of fun, mischief, and when the darkest things that live in the dark come out. A supposedly perfect day for children and adults to have a little fun by scaring each other, feasting on delicious sweets, and dressing up as any number of nasty things. Yet, in a small town in the U.S., one that you might pass by without thinking on a road trip, there's a local legend of a certain woman.
She was known as Betty Sweet, a candy lover and maker, well known for her talent at making all sorts of delectable concoctions. From the sweetest of chocolates to the fluffiest cotton candy, if it was sweet and enticed any child, then Betty Sweet was your gal. The adults all found her a little odd, true, but no one ever pictured Betty Sweet as anything but a sweet enthusiast. She love to host small parties where she would always unveil her newest sweet, and be praised not just for how delectable the treat was but for how well crafted these sweets always were. She love the adoration as much
“Shade...”
“Oh, come on, Rayo. It wasn't really my fault...”
“Shade...!”
“Look, that weird shark thing was going to eat us! I was just defending the ship!”
“The ship that you help send flying right into an island!?”
Shade was quiet for a moment as he looked at the remains of the ship he and his friends had been sailing not ten minutes ago. Just as Rayo was pointing out, the fight with the strange metallic shark and Shade's use of excessive force had completely wrecked the ship beyond salvage. While the others looked through the wreckage to see if anything within was still usable, Shade was being hung upside down over dangerous waters by his friend Rayo Verrani, who was quite angry with the gray haired man.
Shade try to plea for his innocence again, “Okay, in my defense, I was trying to make space between us and that weird shark thing.”
Rayo continued to glare angrily at Shade just as a young lady with blue hair approach the two. She was wearing a simple light blue shirt
Within the New World...
“I don't like this, sir...meeting him of all people?”
“It will all work out, Ladron. Have I ever steered us wrong?”
The man name Ladron went silent at those words, as his boss had actually managed to pull feats that everyone around him would call impossible. After all, the man known as Black Crow had just risen to the status of Pirate Sovereign, a status that only a select number of pirates could hold. With such a title came not just respect from those around him but power that could equal a force almost as great, if not greater, than those of the Marines or the New World Government. Between having defeated a former Pirate Sovereign and his charismatic nature, Black Crow had already amassed the necessary power to be considered a threat. What Ladron, his “bodyguard” as he was often referred as, could not understand was why his boss had decided to meet with a Pirate Sovereign that was considered among the current iteration of Sovereigns as the most

Helluva Boss OC 3 - Theodora
Theodora or Thea (as her friends call her) is a Succubus of the Lust Ring that is a licensed massage therapist and owner of the “Deep Touch” Spa Parlor within the ring. She moonlights as a model for a few magazines as well.
Appearance
As a Succubus, Theodora is considered very appealing with the body of a model that she is quite proud of. She enjoys using bright colors in her clothes to empathize her dark skin, especially gold/yellow and orange to match her knee length hair. Said hair is either in a pony tail or in pigtails, though it is able to “flare up” like a flame whenever Theodora's emotions get the better of her. She likes to dress fashionably, and her outfits almost always consist of anything that accentuates her curves. She prefers to add opera gloves and thigh-high boots of a purple color for distinction. Theodora also sports a pair of wings that she can use for flight that are the same color as her skin and have golden tips at each end. Her horns are of average size and
Vera Cola is a “private investigator” that works for the highest bidder in Pentagram City.
Appearance
Vera Cola has many attributes associated with that of a uropygi (or what most people would call a whip-tail scorpion/vinegaroon). Sporting two pair of red eyes, a dark gray skin, eight arms (with two having a distinct pincer like appearance), two red horns (in the shape of antenna), and an abdomen adorned with a whip-tail like end, she's nonetheless considered quite a beauty. This is especially true with her long dark violet/pink hair that she keeps waist length. Her hands, several spots and “horns” are all of a light red shade while her tail sports a red and black stripe pattern.
Vera dresses rather fashionably with a dress that empathizes her body's curves, thigh long boots, and a red collar to complete her look. She is known to have black bands on her more humanoid arms to go with the black of her pincer like claws. Vera is also noted for having rather long lashes for her
Rocco is a former mercenary that now acts as Marylin's bodyguard/personal assistant.
Appearance
Rocco is a rather tall and thin Imp with short, tousled black hair which has bangs that cover his eyes. His horns are noted for being rather large and he has markings under his eyes in tear-like streaks. His tail is also unique in that rather than spade-shape, Rocco's tail appears as a spiked u-shaped end.
He tends to wear clothing fit for office work with his favorite being a blue vest with a white shirt, black trousers and boots and a gray tie to complete the ensemble.
Personality
Rocco is a dedicated and loyal Imp that serves his employer, the Demon Marylin, with precision and efficiency. He is noted for having his emotions in check by those who know him and all agree that Rocco is difficult to read on a normal basis. While Rocco admits that he's not very good at expressing himself, he can be emotional and he's also known for having a very short temper when someone decides to

“Incoming!”
The call from the Marine soldier was deafened from the continuous barrage of artillery and gunfire. The roar of battle rang between the pirates that the Marines had found on their way back to base from a routine patrol, and neither side was letting up. Though the pirates in question were new to the waters, they were no pushover as the Marines found out ten minutes ago. It looked to be as though the pirates would win, and their captain was roaring in laughter as he slew another Marine soldier.
“That's it, mateys!” he called to his mates as he stomped the poor soul he had just cut down with his cutlass, “Just a bit more and-!”
Whatever the man was going to say was cut off as he was shot back by a blast of black liquid and off the soldier he had been boasting on. When the pirate captain finally managed to wipe away the liquid, he saw a figure coming towards him with an intense aura of anger that he had never seen before. The figure turned out to be a woman of average
Marylin is a celebrated and well-known socialite along with being one of the upper managers of the software company that has created the many apps used in Hell (including Envee).
Appearance
Marylin appears as a beautiful and seductive demon with many octopus or cephalopod themes on her body. She has long waist long “hair” (in reality, numerous tentacles) in pale blues with rings and three distinct orange (functioning) eyes. The tips of her hair are tinged violet and she has them styled in a peekaboo fashion to look more seductive. Like the other eyes on her head, Marylin's actual eyes are a sunset orange but sport a black sclera (or where the white of eyes would normally be) and sports long lashes that project out from her face for her left eye (making it look as though she has an antenna). She is of average size to a human woman but is well noted for being rather curvy in body shape. Her arms and legs are of varying shades of purple with her wearing opera gloves of a darker
