LUZVIMINDA: MANANANGGAL Let me show you a progress of my Luzviminda one shot project (Though, this is still a tentative project. Meaning, I don't know when will I finish this. XD). Here's a final design for one of the villains in the story. It's a manananggal (details below), a Philippine mythical creature. I've been hearing stories about these creatures and my aunts used to scare me when I was a kid when I visit the Necor Manor of my mom's side in Ilo Ilo and in Antique. So, I'm pretty much familiar with detailed information about them. Stuffs like on how to kill them, their overall being and how they transform and et cetera.
On a related(?) note, my other one shot manga project stars a very young manananggal. I'm pretty excited to work on it too!
A manananggal is a mythical creature of the Philippines. It resembles a Western vampire, in being an evil, human-devouring monster or witch. The myth of the manananggal is popular in the Visayan region of the Philippines, especially in the western provinces of Capiz, Iloilo, Antique.
A manananggal is described as being an older, beautiful woman (as opposed to an aswang), capable of severing its upper torso in order to fly into the night with huge bat-like wings to prey on unsuspecting, pregnant women in their homes; using an elongated proboscis-like tongue, it sucks the hearts of fetuses or blood of an unsuspecting, sleeping victim. The severed lower torso is left standing and it is said to be the more vulnerable of the two halves. Sprinkling salt or smearing crushed garlic or ash on top of the standing torso is fatal to the creature. The upper torso then would not be able to rejoin and will die at daybreak.
