Just something simple and boring for my first upload of 2013 x3 I felt like drawing borzois, but not meaningless ones, and I have no borzoi characters...until now ;D And actually they're two shapeshifters, so they both have human forms that I'll draw eventually; so humans are in the future xD
I need names...so gimme cool male Victorian names in the comments! Whoever wins gets 30 points per name!
Salem Ramsay (left): Subdued, scholarly, but none the less dangerous than his brother. He's the older of the two, by a year and two months; he takes this into stride, making himself the self-proclaimed leader of the pair and leaving all the big decision-making for himself. When their parents died, he carried on the family doctor business, but took it in a very questionable direction; he now claims to own one of the largest operating theatres in the world, and he's always hosting scientific seminars in which some poor sod has been unwittingly tricked into being sawed open. While his brother takes refuge in parties and loud, raucous events, he's much more content to stay in solitude, spending hour upon hour reading or indulging in the arts (this is mostly because he hates people and consequently, hates being around them).
Benjamin Ramsay (right): Aggressive, loud, and about as hostile as you can possibly get. He's the younger of the two, much to his chagrin, by a year and two months; he often gets angry when the decision-making is left to his brother, but in the end it's a much smarter choice to have been made. When their parents died and his brother took over the family medical business, he spent a large deal of his fortune on smuggling opium from Chinese ships; he now owns a large opium den called "Wonderland" that is often frequented by London's biggest and best. He's known for being the more devilish of the two, and it's not uncommon knowledge that he's more likely to seek solace in the more earthly indulgences of the world (aka, brothels and booze).
I knew these were Borzois without even looking at the description. Edgar, Ichabod, Finbar, Jack, Hugo, Jasper, Bram, Victor, Branwell, Currer, Basil, Cecil, Erasmus, Ulysses, Aloisius (pr. Aloe-ish-us), Emmett, Josiah, Obediah, Sherlock, Micajah, Luther, Levi. Just a bunch of random Victorian names on Google.
You have no idea how much space they all took up on my bed at night X,D
Gah thanks for the memories of my babu's <3
