Minotaurus by Akysi

Minotaurus

Akysi

Another design I finished up today! I don’t have the energy for much more than single standing poses these days but I hope you like it anyway. :’) In my infinite madness, I’ve compiled a list of constellations to work with in addition to the 88 modern constellations for Starglass Zodiac. Some were real constellations at one point but are now defunct, while some are entirely made up for this story so I could add more cool creatures. :D Aranea is the former, while Minotaurus here is the latter! In both cases I made up symbols for them to match the others.

Admittedly his colours were a bit of a struggle, but I think I pulled it off in the end. His colour scheme is similar to Leo Minor’s but with the colour hierarchy swapped around a bit. I like the similarity in theme too, as Leo Minor guards a treasure hoard, Minotaurus guards the labyrinth, and both ended up with Egyptian inspiration. His tattoos are meant to mimic the labyrinth itself.

He appears at the point in the story where Cassie has restored many of the spirits, but in doing so reveals more dark and dangerous areas of the Astral Plane itself. When Cassie first rescues Centaurus, she finds him lost in the labyrinth looking for Minotaurus. When the two of them return to the labyrinth they’re well aware of the danger, but Scorpio seems particularly reluctant to let them enter, and the three venture in together. They find and rescue Minotaurus part way through the labyrinth, and he warns of whatever lies at the centre of it.
