Death Himself (Richard), Hr. Dr. Kasper, and Cedrick - all three generations of Grim Reapers in one pic.
💀
Just a random idea I felt like experimenting with for a character sheet.
Not quite exactly what I had in mind, but I’ll try making another one another time…

A week off and the boats had long sailed away from the canal, but it’s still the end of June, so…
⛵️
It’s kinda a paper doll of Richard featuring something he would be wearing for Kiel Week.
His human character design almost always has him wearing a shirt with a 1970s-80s logo design tied to his hometown via county flag, city/state flag colors, text, and/or sailboats.
(The Kaspers are from Kiel where an annual festival of boats is held in June; Kiel Woche is also Germany’s 2nd largest festival after Oktoberfest)
There’s a lot of reasons why Kiel was picked as the Kasper’s hometown - the main ones are that boats are associated with Death and the journey to the Afterlife (the Kaspers are Grim Reapers), and the name “Kiel” is similar to the word “Keel” which is the backbone of a ship that keeps the whole unit together as one piece (Kaspers are known to be very loyal to their family and who they serve).
Kiel is in part of Jutland that was once ruled by Denmark, making them descendants of Vikings who were masters of boats and the sea; Kiel also starts with the letter “K” like “Kasper”, so yarp - it can’t get any more literal than that.
River cities like Hamburg, Bonn, or Cologne technically could’ve work instead since they have boats as well, but it feels a bit off…
Kiel was also historically a naval port and has a cool coastal climate (two things I hold dear to my heart as a Navy Brat spending my early years living next to the ocean).
And cool coastal areas tend to be foggy, which adds to the creepy ghostly vibes the Kaspers give off as descendants of Death.

Schachmatt!♟
Looks like Hr. Dr. Kasper’s showing his true colors with a rainbow checkered pattern, lol.
(If he’s calling you “Darling”, you know you’re in for trouble💀)
It’s seems like June 16th is the day to redraw this guy with a new outfit that suits his fancy.

Richard Kasper’s true form as Death Himself.💀
-
So how does being an incarnation work?
Death’s essence gets transplanted into an assigned unborn body by Fate Herself and is allowed to live as a human for no longer than 35-40 years, therefore he often lived recklessly for fun (which is why he never married and had children - until he unexpectedly became the heir of the Kasper Bloodline when his older brother Heinrich gave up his title, forcing him to look for a bride).
Often times the same families are chosen to raise Death over generations, especially if they have a lot of resources and particular abilities that he finds fascinating (Death has been reborn in the Kasper Family twice before becoming Richard and is fond of their “Odin’s Eye” and notoriously so-called “evil” reputation within the occult community).
If Death grows fond of a person during his limited lifetime, he will keep their soul by his side for eternity.
Currently he has over 40,000 souls in his personal collection over the 350,000+ years he’s existed, often rotating favorites (one of them his older brother Heinrich).
One soul he keeps by his side almost all the time is his beloved Sigrid, but she does occasionally like to wander away on her own to visit living relatives (Cedrick had always wondered why there’s a pink soul continuously floating in and out of the house for years, so he wants to cast a spell to reveal its true identity).

Oh my…
This year’s MET theme was based off the Gilded Age, and it looked like a sloppy tragic mess - an “F” for execution and effort in my opinion.
There wasn’t not enough puffed sleeves, high collars, pleated skirts, opera gloves, glittery jewelry, bright colors on dresses, feathers and fur, top hats, and not to mention some literally took the “coated in gold” definition.
A lot of the looks came from wrong eras (though some of them were amazing, like Gigi Hadid’s quilted burgundy gown), and some looks were just so lazy (seriously - Marilyn Monroe’s skintight nude-colored dress from the 1960s?! Why?!).
Some menswear were also spot-on like Ryan Reynolds (mens fashion were a bit plain with waistcoats, trousers, and collared shirts with muted solid colors), but again lacked hats and could’ve had some fun with shoes and accessories such as glasses, gloves, bow ties, and pocket watches.
Now who had outfits that did a good job reflecting the Gilded Age aesthetic in my opinion?
Billie Eilish (the colors, silhouette, draping… love it), Bad Bunny (the puffed sleeves, structured coat, and collared shirt), and Emma Corrin (the top hat and her coat kinda resembles a “Bike Suit” and maybe a hint of “Flauntleroy Boy”).
-
So for fun (with a hint of annoyed spite), in this made-up version of the world where my OC Freyja is a famous personality, she and her family would wear something like these outfits in a Gilded Glamour event.
(and I drew all this after less than a hour of looking at Gilded Age clothing).
*Fun Random Note:
Cedrick’s name is a variant of “Cedric”, the name of the main character in the book “Little Lord Flauntleroy” written in 1886 (during the Gilded Age).

Argh! I thought I said no more books after the last pic!💀
Anyway, it’s a #sketchdump featuring all three generations of Kaspers.📚
(Richard—>Johannes—>Cedrick)
All three look alike with the same hair and eyes colors, especially Richard and his son Johannes Faustuz, but there’s differences here and there (i.e. Faustuz has long straight hair like his mother Sigrid; Cedrick has a bowlcut which both his father and grandfather had in their younger years).
I also used muted colors and softer brushes this time, almost making it look like an old photo.

Sigrid and Richard at her academy’s masquerade-themed formal dinner.
-
The annual formal dinner is the only time students can bring a potential date to campus (dating is prohibited until they finished school, at about 21 years old; Sigrid wouldn’t live up to that age due to her curse, so she had to keep her romance with Richard secret).
Everyone at the academy was shocked to see that Sigrid actually brought a guest with her, assuming she’ll be alone or not show up due to being rejected by her childhood crush Batty and no other boys in the neighborhood interested dating her since she doesn’t have much time left to live.
And she didn’t bring any ordinary guy with her - it was the very Reaper assigned to take her soul when her curse takes effect: the notorious youngest son of Europe’s deadliest Reaper “The Black Skull of Kiel” called “Death Incarnate” because of his swift and gruesome method of killing monsters and collecting souls from those who are due.
Sigrid also induced a lot of jealousy amongst the girls not only because she was paired with a much older and more refined partner compared to their male guests, but also the heir of the Kasper Family, which despite its dark history is an ancient and powerful bloodline within the occult world (Sigrid herself is descended from a long line of powerful Slavic witches and the daughter of Denmark’s most powerful Warlock, but ended being a Wicca unable to cast spells without the assistance of potions made from plants and animals; she’s also the academy’s headmistress’ stepdaughter).
It’s still a night many talk about amongst faculty and alumni over the years since Sigrid’s death, especially when they happen to see her son visiting Copenhagen.

Death’s Son dressed to kill.
💀
-
Hr. Dr. Kasper hates being referred to as “Death’s Son”, “Der Sensenmanns Sohn”, or even “Dickie’s Boy” by the Occult community mainly because it makes him feel inferior and he hates being associated with the very entity that he battles as a doctor (he’s also a Reaper, but prefers to have his victims on good terms and willing to let go of their souls; as for rogue monsters, he’s merciless like all Kaspers before him).
He’s not very forgiving of his father being the one who ultimately “killed” his mother Sigrid (removed her soul soon after he was born), or how his abrupt “death” came to be when he was a child (made himself look like he died from a respiratory infection when in reality he was rapidly reverting back to his skeletal form).
But being Death’s son also makes many fear him just from hearing his name, especially for those who’ve personally seen Death as Richard Kasper - he was called “Death Incarnate” because of his no-nonsense and cruel methods of collecting souls and killing monsters, often leaving behind a visceral scene and people emotionally scarred (only a very few people refer to Richard as “Playboy Dick” because of his past of dating numerous women before shattering their hearts - some to the point of dying; this is another reason why Hr. Dr. Kasper doesn’t like is father - past lovers had approached him thinking he was Richard).
One more major reason why he despises Death is because people would add how much he looks just like his human form and wonder if he’ll be joining him soon since he’s approximately the age when all incarnations of Death “die” (35-40).
He’s not quite ready to be an extension of Death Himself, but he’s doesn’t plan to quit his current living role as nephew, cousin, father, husband, colleague, friend, doctor, and professor anytime soon.

Hr. Dr. Kasper’s Parents:
Richard & Sigrid
(circa 1979-1984 timeframe)
Quick notes/background info on these two OCs.
This was made earlier this month of April; the last two slides were posted on my website all the way back in October 2021 and are finally getting posted here on IG as a bonus.

Kinda a redraw of a pic from 2019 (check last slide)…
It’s a bit messy and sketchy, but much more colorful - especially with Cedrick’s new halftone hairstyle.
