Hey, everyone. I'm Redbat142. This isn't really a fan fiction story. These are just a bunch of designs I like to share. I still feel new doing this. Anyway, hope you guys enjoy them. And hope this works, because this is my first time posting here.

Finally, my first new character drawing in the new year of 2020. I'm actually very proud of this one. You see, I'm planning an RotG Valentine's story that I'm hoping to finally release this year on Valentine's day. I had this idea since 2018 or so and never got it done. So, that's why I'm committed to have it done this year.
Okay. While working on the story, I asked some help and advice from my online friend, RD, on how this version of Cupid should look and act. Since there are, technically, different versions and dimensional Cupids. I thought about making this Cupid around the appearance of a teen. Considering it would be nice that Jack Frost and Katherine wasn't the only good or spirit to have that. RD told me that instead of the suave, smooth operator kind of guy most people expect Cupid to be, this Cupid is all about being himself and expect to help others in doing the same when it comes to love. Which I thought sounded perfect.
His style I got from a combination of Max Kante and his super hero alter ego called Pegasus from Miraculous Ladybug. With a few alterations of my own kind of spin. For this Cupid, he has on black glasses with the edges red, a white polo shirt, black suspenders with red hearts, tanned pants, red watch on his right wrist (it's also a pocket dimension gadget where he gets his items and information when during mission in love), and white and gold sneakers that have spikes on the sides that resemble wings of Hermes from his helmet. He appears like a normal teen like this. But he can also reveal his golden wings with white whenever he's not blending in on the human world. He can also summon his bow and arrows from his watch. The bow is even a lyre. Which is why it's called a lyre bow.
And finally, there's his name. This one I had some time to think about. I thought about calling him Lyran which is similar to the words 'lyra' and 'lyre'. Which is an instrument known in the Greek time period. I was thinking he was named after the instrument one of his god parents used to play in winning the love and heart of their life. Some greek God and goddess romance there. ;D Anyway, the last name Desire was straight forward because Cupid also means desire. Thereby calling him Lyran Desire.
If all goes well, I might even have him as the love interest of another cupid that's doing her job in a particular fairytale world. Just a thought.
