Don't go, please...

Kagemitsu sees off her beloved master, Yoshimitsu, and tells her foster father how much she wishes he did not have to go. Yoshimitsu comforts the girl, before he leaves amidst the Winter night...

:blackrose: Welcome to the gallery of Alabastor Pris Holmes :blackrose:

My gallery consists mostly of Soul Calibur related works, from my artwork to stories, because I absolutely love Soul Calibur as much as my brothers do. :aww:

As mentioned under About Me, my group DarthPhoenix17 is working on an upcoming Soul Calibur manga/doujinshi project known as Soul Calibur Eternity which follows the story of our beloved Yoshimitsu and the Manjitou; and feature the other SC characters as well with their own stories.

In my gallery also consists homemade SC characters, including Kagemitsu (Jung Sha-mitsu) whom I suppose you could say started out as a simple roleplaying character because when I used to play Soul Calibur, I was (and still am, apparently) a very big Yoshimitsu fan, and my brothers affectionately nicknamed me Sha-mitsu (Sha, taken from my childhood nickname - a name that now belongs to Sha Agate of Magicus Quest from our original art group, Celestial Time Miracles Studios; and -mitsu from Yoshimitsu... which might seem silly, but after researching on the name Kagemitsu of which I changed her title name of Shadowmitsu to - because it was proper Japanese - there were alot of people with the name 'mitsu' in the Osafune school of a swordsmith known as Kagemitsu, who invented the Koryu Kagemitsu sword.)

Most of my works involve Yoshimitsu, and the Manjitou as my main interest. My brothers and I have even taken the minor characters from SCIV, and made them into important characters alongside Kagemitsu and her twin brother Akumitsu. Ukon and Sakon are the more recognised of the minor Manjitou characters, but we've taken each of the ones we've run into through Tower of Lost Souls, including Tomoe, Ryuki, Ryouga, Sizuku, Shun and Mayura (which are the ones we've uncovered so far - Shun and Mayura seem to be a reference to Tekken's Yoshimitsu and Kunimitsu, respectively).

Note that Setsuka, my most favourite female character, appears several times with Yoshimitsu and the Manjitou (Kagemitsu's friendship with the woman comes from Setsuka's SCIII ending, and was before we even found this out in SCIV), but anyhow, I thought that was very interesting because I think Setsuka, and Yoshimitsu would make great friends (if not a lovely, well-matched couple). :love:

My works also include my other favourite characters:

Mitsurugi, who has been my top fighter for over a year (before that, was Siegfried Schtauffen), and whom I enjoy writing about. Since life has become overwhelmingly meaningless, I've taken a particular interest in writing about his whole storyline about the samurai being a 'man gone ogre'. My brothers have compared him to Sayid from Lost, and so I have taken traits of that character for the sensitive/thoughtful side of Mitsurugi, which must exist - even as he finds life pointless, other than being a thrill-seeker for battles. After starting to write about Mitsurugi, I started to realise there are alot of things unexplored about the samurai - let alone, the other characters, but I especially think so for Mitsurugi here.


Setsuka, I've already mentioned her here before, and I believe she is the most strongest - in character, and strength, as well as the most intelligent, along with being wise, female in the Soul series. She's a real role model, and her endings consist of her overcoming the desire for revenge, which is something I wish I could do myself (and express through Kagemitsu, who was originally based on the girl Setsuka befriended in her SCIII ending - yes, Kagemitsu is my writing therapy). Setsuka is very beautiful, and she has fierce eyes which also hold gentleness (much like a mystic's eyes), as well as she's strong yet extremely graceful at the same time. I guess you could already guess this, but I like the pairing of Setsuka and Yoshimitsu, because I admire both characters, and I think they'd get along real well (and be able to relate to one another, given that Yoshimitsu once sought revenge, but overcame his lust for revenge to become the wise leader hs is now).

And my other favourite characters are:
Taki

Hwang, Yun-seong, Seong Mi-na and Talim [I think my brothers and I roleplay about them every day actually :aww:]...

And of course, the Sorels, Raphael and Amy... :rose:

...will write more later sometime.

x Currently writing x

Distant Crickets in the Summer Night - a Yoshimitsu-and-Manjitou story I started on my Momma's birthday of this year... it takes me a really long time to work on this story, since I was using my own emotions and certain weather atmospheare for inspiration (namely, the rain). I know how the rest of it is going to go, but I suppose I'm beginning to lose interest, because of other stories coming to surface in my distracted mind. Basically, Kagemitsu ends up getting kidnapped, and Yoshimitsu gets to deal with Greed and Miser's gang of thieves. Thief gang wars! Just kidding. ;P

Rainy Mist of the Dark Morning - a Raphael-and-Kagemitsu story, which I was originally writing for a friend of mine, Airezen, who enjoys the pairing. Although I don't pair them off in this story, it was an interesting idea to finally come up with a way to trap Raphael into having the help of a stranger whom is too naive to be afraid of him (let alone, she does not know any European languages - yet). The overall story focuses on what the thieves in Chester's gang are up to, and how the fighters in the battle arena - including the Manjitou - are going to deal with the thieves taking over the port town.

Little Butterfly under the Pale Moon - a Kagemitsu-and-Setsuka story, which I came up with after talking about long hair dilemmas with my friend, Airezen, which regarded the different hair styles of our homemade characters. For the longest time, I was considering Kagemitsu to have long hair... and decided that, well, she's just going to have to cut it anyway! My brothers officially hate the character, Daichi, who pulls Kagemitsu's hair... Kitten is even going to take Daichi, and write him in a disaster because of how much they hate Daichi. xD

I have other stories, but at the moment, those are the most significant ones... and yes, I'm keeping all spoiler stories off this page, such as Kagemitsu's Tale, and other SCE related stories.

"I think, Sebastian, therefore I am."

My name is Alabastor Pris Holmes, and I usually go by Al Holmes with Pris being a nickname affectionately given to me by my beloved brothers.

I am a self-proclaimed Weaver of Creativity, which in reality is a starving artist and writer. I am passionately in love with the creative arts, with my artwork and writings ever at my side to express myself with. Although I like to share my works with the world, I often don't care what others think most of the time unless if they take a real interest; or mean something to me, which is why I am happy whenever my family, and friends care about my works.

I am an eccentric loner, although I am well-liked by my small group of friends who I am forever grateful to for putting up with my melancholy moods, and I am very close with my Mother, and my brothers Samuel (aka Kitten, and Sergei) and Robert (aka Leon, and Hwang). As an artist practicing traditional and digital paintings, I am starting up commissions in real life, and hopefully online as well, when I find the proper methods. Someday, I will become a freelance artist, and be able to draw concept designs, promotional artwork and whatnot for video games that my group plans to work on, as well as hopefully existing video games.

I also dream of finding my soul mate, and becoming a Sister (nun) someday, because I love God dearly, and try my hardest to be a decent human being, but sometimes it is hard fighting against my own dark side. I would like to give a shoutout to the people who mean the most to me, starting with my Mother, and brothers. Thankyou, Mamu, and my brothers Kitten, and Hwang, as well as my best friends, Steven, Yvvi, Jenny, Airezen, and Matthew.

I write Soul Calibur stories as a pastime, and to improve my writing skills. My art group's partner doujinshi group, DarthPhoenix17, is working on an upcoming Soul Calibur manga/doujinshi project known as Soul Calibur Eternity, which will feature Yoshimitsu and the Manjitou, as well as the other SC characters. There will be three important newcomers, including the twins Akumitsu, and Kagemitsu, along with a mysterious Dark Lord who turned his back on the twins. Do not worry however, my group knows how to write proper homemade characters as we have been writing our various series for over ten years now, and our characters tend to be painfully realistic, because we don't live in, 'La La Land' (as a jealous friend once put it when he was angry with us).

Originally, my homemade character Kagemitsu (Jung Sha-mitsu) started out as inspired from the young girl from Mitsurugi's, and Setsuka's SCIII endings; but with our manga project coming up, I've taken the time to rewrite her backstory where she is her own original character. She is still apart of the Manjitou and close to her foster father, Yoshimitsu, of course.

Kagemitsu has a running gag where she gets a little too obsessed with her first master (the Dark Lord who taught both her and her twin), and Yoshimitsu for being her second master... but other than that, she's a serious character, and I've developed her to stand by herself without being in Yoshimitsu's shadow (and without overshadowing anybody else, such as the other Manjitou members - Ukon, Sakon, and the others - all stand strong by themselves, even the minor characters whom appeared in SCIV: Tower of Lost Souls).

Although Kagemitsu is not officially paired off in our Soul Calibur Eternity series; my friend Airezen enjoys the pairing of Kagemitsu and Raphael, while my brothers lean more towards Kagemitsu and Mitsurugi. I still like Kagemitsu best with her first master (the Dark Lord) whom betrayed her, but she's in denial about it until later storylines come along to crush her spirits. Otherwise though, I prefer not to dwell on any romantic notions, and I feel I fail when it comes to romance anyhow (let alone, it gets dull easily in my simple opinion).

If anybody has questions, comments or so forth, feel free to contact me - I am open to pretty much everything. However, I deal with flamers, spammers, and immature folk the way everybody should - I shall block and report them.

Grazie!

~Pris

Merry Halloween ~ <3

Sat Oct 31, 2009, 11:56 AM
Halloween's my most favourite holiday, and I wanted to wish you all a Merry Halloween! :giggle:

Today, my brothers and I will be watching spookies online from the old cartoon of Sleepy Hollow, and perhaps the old German film Nosteratu. My brothers aren't exactly set on what they'll be for Halloween; I had thought they were going to be the Sparda brothers from Devil May Cry again (they were the Spardas for Sergei's, and Airezen's birthday on the 27th). I'm going to be dressing up similar to Ramon Salazar from Resident Evil, and titling the costume Lady Salazar. :giggle:

I hope everybody has a good night, and a Hell of alot of spooky fun! :giggle:

~Pris :blackrose:

P.S. I decided I'm not going to be getting back to all of the messages I had in my inbox... there were just too many, and I couldn't stand it to keep putting them off, so I'm just not going to get back to them. If I didn't answer something or clarify anything you were curious about, please just contact me again on the subject if possible, because I know I dropped a few conversations right now... and I apologise for that, but I just don't have the time at the moment to get back to anything, so please understand and bear with me in the future. I'll try not to get backlogged again...
