Sluagh

, This is Sluagh. Sluagh is my interpretation of the Irish mythological creatures of the same name.
Legend has it, the Sluagh are earth bound spirits too wicked for heaven, but not evil enough for hell. They fly in from the west, drawn to places where there are people on their death bed. The Sluagh are said to capture the soul of the newly deceased damning it to roam the earth forever.

So i decided that Sluagh was kind of like a ghost/grim reaper thing. . .so I combined the two classic depictions into a ghost that wears skeletal parts. The head was inpired by hollow's mask from Bleach and his hair was made orange because is in former life he was an Irish farmer who was stereotypical and ginger.

Nowadays I like to think he is more prankster than wicked. With modern medicine and people living longer or getting resuscitated, Sluagh gets confused. Thinking he can take a soul and being denied his chance, he takes his revenge by playing tricks on the living.
