Missy Burlappe: The Flesh-Thread Seamstress
Missy Burlappe: The Flesh-Thread Seamstress
Missy Burlappe (Ms. Burlappe or just Missy) is the Overlord over the clothing industry, specifically costume design & tailoring, and is part of the Theatre Overlords lead by The Puppeteer.
She grew up around the small town of Glossop, England during the early 1900s. She had a large family: parents, siblings, grandparents, great grandparents, uncles, aunts, and cousins all living under 1 roof.
However, her family was far from innocent: they were a family of murderous cannibals. It’s unclear when this “traditions” started, but it’s been in the family since before the great grandparents. They would kidnapped individuals and use parts of their bodies to eat or use in clothing, furniture, and even toys for the children.
Missy was quite skilled in skinning the victims and using their skin for sewing, helping with making clothes and dolls for her younger siblings and cousins. She also grew an interest in creating detailed designs in the “clothes” she makes (and eventually using normal pieces of fabrics to sew).
Once she turned 18, she moved to Liverpool, England and opened her own boutique. While not the most popular, she became well known throughout the city. However, family traditions are hard to get rid off, and cravings started to grow.
She would first kidnap people whom she judged “sinful”: thieves, abusers, drunks, prostitutes, generally rude people, smokers, etc. She then started going after individuals who lived alone and “flirt” with them. Missy had a secret basement under her boutique where she would keep the kidnapped individuals.
However, she grew careless one night and didn’t realized she was being followed. After finding her next victim, she lead her to her boutique, not realizing that the victim’s lover was following her. Before Missy could do anything, the Lover grabbed the victim and ran to the roof of the boutique. Missy followed them, thinking she had cornered them.
However, the victim grabbed a burlap bag and covered Missy’s head. Unable to see, she tried to find them, but was pushed off the building and fell into the streets below, killing her.
After arriving in Hell, she was greeted by The Puppeteer, who has been watching her and her “creative” clothes designing during her past life. The Puppeteer offered her to “improve” her hands to help better at clothes designing, eat as many individual as she pleases, and give total control over the souls she collect in exchange for her “working” under The Puppeteer, making her follow The Puppeteer’s every demand when needed. She accepted with no hesitation.
Out of the other Theatre Overlords, she’s definitely more unstable, making most feel uneasy and even in danger around her. While “most” of the others felt some remorse for their past actions, she feels none and justifies her past actions, but also she had fun doing these past. However, when she was allowed to leave the Theatre, found solace in Cannibal Town and became good friends with Rosie, and eventually on good terms with Alastor.
Design
Her name is based around the fact that parts of her body is made of burlap, and she died with a burlap bag over her head.
She is around 7ft 8in tall, making her taller than Alastor, who is supposedly 7ft 2in.
Her fingers are supposed to look like pins and needles often used in sewing (took some inspiration from Beldam from Coraline and the Prototype from Poppy Playtime).
Regarding the colors, I wanted her to look somewhat similar to the inhabitants of Cannibal Town, specifically Rosie.
Her body is very floppy, almost like she has no bones. This in a way is supposed to reflect how she died, which was from severe blunt trauma from falling off a building.
She has long arms due to The Puppeteer’s offer, and to represent how she could have “reached” the duo before falling, bringing them with her.
The pins around her wrists and neck act as “shackles” due to being under The Puppeteer’s control.
Here is a basic reference without the dress:

Hetalia Infection AU
I wanted to introduce a possible AU for Hetalia revolving around an outbreak, aka “Zombies”.
I’ve seen a lot of MLP Infection AU on YouTube which sparked this interest, plus I like adding horror to non-horror characters.
I’ll be creating another post going over the virus/parasite/disease like its symptoms & origins, along with the status of the countries during said outbreak.
I’ll do polls on who the main cast should be, along with who are “survivors”, “infected”, and “deceased”.
I’ll try to make this into a little series, and yes, I’m putting my OCs that I made for this fandom into this AU as well.
That’s all for now, I’ll be posting a blog regarding the symptoms once I have them all figured out.
Here is the rough draft of one of the alternate personalities for my OC. He is a dog demon, specifically a German Shepherd.
This is personality is best described as a disgruntled cop/detective, who will do anything to solve a case. He’s basically a stereotypical detective: clever, perseverant, thinks outside the box, and definitely has problems with alcoholism and smoking. Imagine those old black and white detective shows combined with Sebastian Castellanos from the Evil Within.
He’s not the most social person, however he knows how to get someone talking through drinks and persuasion. He tries to gather as much information as possible before making consequential decisions.
Underkeep Neue Rough Draft
This variant’s name is “Quire”.
Here is the rough draft:
He is based off the Danish Landrace Goat.
He is a bit shorter than Century and Avenir.
*Note: I might make comics or short stories with these characters, mainly to build character and relationships*
Disclaimer!!! This post has some content that may be disturbing!!! (Valentino and his “habits”)
So when creating these characters, I’ve also tried to come up with possible scenarios with certain Hazbin characters.
Now this idea might have some mixed views due to the characters that would be in it.
Basically I want to create a scenario with Sweetie (the Lovestruck Personality) and Valentino. Idk why but the idea of a “lustful” character interacting with an innocent affectionate character just seems interesting.
Like Val would try to flirt and talk dirty, but Sweetie would have no idea or misunderstand what he’s talking about.
For example; he could comment that he’s “thirsty” or “hungry” for her, but Sweetie takes it that he’s actually hungry/thirsty and would cook/bake something for him.
Another example (and this one is definitely disturbing), he would sneak into her room to “touch” her, but she would somehow wake up before he can do anything. She would then assume that he had a nightmare and would cuddle with him, which would result with his face in her chest.
I know that this would definitely be OOC for Valentino, but perhaps he would gradually start to admire Sweetie’s innocence, and maybe perhaps fall in love with her (like actual love).
Please let me know how you all feel about this and if I should go forward with creating scenarios/stories/comics for this idea. I’ll also post other ideas I have regarding the interactions between my characters and Hazbin characters.
Palm Beans!
Whoever is creating Mati’s character sheet sure is taking their sweet time. (It’s me…I’m taking my sweet time).
Anywho, here is a pic of Mati’s beans:
Slight Walle Redesign
Now that I got the basic idea of what the Theatre Overlords will look like, I’m gonna be doing a redraw/redesign for fix proportions, colors, and make changes in overall design.
First we have Walle, the Artist Overlord.
I used Niffty and Millie as reference for drawing the body and colors.
I shortened the length of the limbs, torso, and “horns”, I also enlarged the head. I decided to make the veins on the arm less complicated for easy reference.
I decided to add small lashes to his eye, and added bug wings since he’s based off a stag beetle.
I also adjusted/changed the colors so that they are less faded and more bright like in the show.
Horrortale Neue Rough Draft
Horrortale Neue’s name is “Crimson”.
Here is the rough draft:
He is based off the Dutch Landrace Goat.
He is the 2nd tallest, with the 1st being Reapertale, and is taller than Avenir.
His portions are a bit funky, but I’ll fix that in his reference sheet.
*Note: I forgot to explain that these are just rough bases for the body, which will be used as reference for creating their character sheets.*
“Choose Wisely…”
***TW: Stained/Old Blood***
“One weeps tears of truths…”
“The other screams laughter of lies…”
Stragedys Redesign
This is actually the character that sparked this idea of redesigning my Overlord OCs. I just didn’t like how he looked, mainly his clothing.
Here is the finished redesign of Stragedys, plus the addition of his pet hellsheep: Phema.
While redesigning him, I decided to take some inspiration from Cyclops, specifically Polyphemus from the Odyssey.
I made his hair curly and changed the clothes to look more like the Greek Military uniform during the Balkan Wars since that is when he died.
His sheep is obviously a reference to Polyphemus and how he cared for flocks of sheep.
