A new character for the Zodiac Princes series! Cetus is the Whale (or sea monster) star sign. In 1970 Stephen Schmidt suggested there should be 14 zodiac signs, this line-up included the twelve we know and both Ophiuchus and Cetus. This was dismissed but later on (1995) Ophiuchus was brought up again, to be the 13th sign. Because of this, I thought it was perfect for Ophiuchus and Cetus to be sisters! I changed Ophiuchus’s design a bit from the last time you saw her - I want to make a clearer difference between the Zodiac royalty (the twelve princes) and all the other constellations. I decided to give them silver jewelry and removed the sign on the forehead, as I see it can act as some kind of crown for the royal family. This way, if other constellations ever show up, I don’t have to be worried whether they have a symbol or not, so it’s also a neat design decision too! In the story to symbolize she was once suggested to be part of the Zodiac (aka the royal family), she’s actually engaged to one of the princes. But nowadays she’s too afraid to leave her castle and he doesn’t want to marry anyway. I’m 90% settled on who will be her lucky fiancee but it might change later on when I have more things figured out~ Fun fact - Cetus is located in the region of the night sky called “The sea” because other constellations that are water-related are there too. Like Pisces and Aquarius! But also Eridanus (symbolized by a river) so who knows maybe (s)he shows up to be a neighbor someday -- source link
