Oh yes, remember this Darkstalker? No? Well no matter, he deserves some love. So this funky boi is Dhylec, the sword that Donovan wields. Turns out, dude actually is sentient. What I personally like to head canon for my Crays Darkstalkers lore is that he was originally a demon of Makai but due to some antics, he was punished by being transformed and imprisoned into this blade form. Dude is a wise guy and one who would be a nice foil to Donovan's more stoic and serious ways. But I also feel he would be pretty frightened by Anita sense he can sense her power and it sends him chills.
Oh, his design? Honestly kinda stuck to his sprites and whatever appearances he made in the Darkstalker anthologies. Then spiced things up cause dude has to look slick. So I hope you love this dumbass.
Oh right, the sketch...:
