Welcome! Now here is the agenda today for the Bu-Log. I feel now is the best time to start to show what I have grasped on the back-story of such a character. It also gives me the chance to see it, and then make an attempt to grow with it.

This one will be tl;dr to the max! Well maybe not the MAX. I won’t be too long, but almost no pics. I might just toss a couple in here. I’ll start with this one!

This image I got as a Christmas gift from ol’ Neekko in 2008 . <3 See it HERE and HERE!I did also get it into coffee mug form. lol Another piece of Bu merchandise! Ahem, anyways…. I thought it was fitting a picture to begin…

The Origin of Bu

So in essence, I kind of imagined Busiris was a curse. Egyptian in nature, mostly because of the name I chose, which I used as my user name online and migrated it over to him. There is always a common theme with Egypt. Always curses! And often they surround an object. So Bu is a curse embedded into an object. Whoever takes the object becomes cursed until death to become Dragon-Bu upon nightfall.

Of course Bu looks this way because that is how I designed him. Technically I suppose I tried to use some of my OWN physical features in him, though not even close to accurate anymore. XD But he looks the way he does now because it’s based off of the human he cursed himself onto. So he dies, Bu disappears until another person takes the object again! Then he (or she if a female takes the object!) would look different. I am always basing the stories and art on his current form though. But you never know what I could be in the mood for later?

Confused? Yay! Me too. It’s a work in progress. And it’s very far-fetched. But I don’t think that bothers me too much. It’s just a story, and heck, I’m not Tolkien or anything. lol Basically he is just a spirit that curses the person that takes the object he was attached to. Bu, I always imagined him to be a fighter character, which explains his pants and belt and buffness too. He soon started to be a goofball as well. I then decided that with the curse he also taps into the subconscious and feeds off of it. What that means is that he loves to do things that everyone wants to do, but he doesn’t hold back. Causing damage to things, partying, sex, food, fun, etc. He does it all because people wanna do it all! The difference is that we, as humans, know better not to do it.

All of that taps into my favorite things. Transformation, muscle growth, also a bit of a temporary mind altering in a trans-formative sense. That last one can cause embarrassment and comedy for the human Bu controls. He’ll wake up at day break likely naked somewhere 100 miles away. Poor guy! lol Its all in good fun. I also try to explain his athletic build in 2007/2008 and why he became megabuff in 2008 and beyond. XD I kinda imagined his form mutates and grows considerably stronger with age. Sorta weak, but hey! Work in progress. I’ll get there. XD

——————–

Yeah so that’s the very basic into the bare center of Dragon-Bu. There are still questions I need to answer to myself, such as why dragon? Also what object curses the human and where is that object’s origins? I hope you’ll be here for when I do an “Origin of Bu part 2” someday soon! Maybe every month I’ll do one single post dedicated to it?

I leave you with a Birthday gift from 2009! A true surprise, made by the super-nice DarkAndroid on dA. You can see the pic HERE! I suppose I should save these pics FOR my birthday blog entry, but who cares?? Have a good day, folks! <3 Thanks to those who read it!
