Stifonies Ziemuzies, Stifonies or Stifons, is the Overlord over the Orchestra industry, specifically Symphonies, and is part of the Theatre Overlords lead by The Puppeteer.
They had a fairly calmed life, growing up in a small town and worked as animal breeders. Their favorite animals to take care of were rodents, specifically rabbits (rabbits were considered to be rodents until the early 1900s). They were born mute due to defects and malfunctions in their throat, not that they mind.
However, the Netherlands started to began to flourish with the arts, music, and sciences; bringing them an inspiration and admiration for music. Their family took them to see orchestral performances, which in return, inspired them to write their own music. Some conductors would volunteer to perform these songs, but none of them matched Stifonies’s vision.
During one of these performances, a few of the performers accidentally played their instruments too loudly and suddenly. Due to where Stifonies was sitting, they got instantly affected by this, causing them to become partially deaf in their right ear.
They were told that it’s best for their health to stay away from orchestra performances to prevent their deafness from getting worst, but they refused. Many began to turn their backs on them, due to seeing that their music as “odd” and “unconventional”. But they still continued to write and eventually performed their music themselves. However, they were a perfectionist. They would work and force their instrumentalists to practice to the point of severe exhaustion. One day several of their performers died from a stroke while performing. Soon they were left with no players to perform in their orchestra, leading them to stop performing all together.
Unfortunately, the Smallpox epidemic reach the Netherlands. They soon got infected by this epidemic and was stuck in bed for days, being comforted by the rodents they once took care of. Then in February of 1871, they died in their sleep.
After arriving in Hell, they actually found themselves at The Puppeteer’s Theater. The Puppeteer, shocked by their sudden arrival, greeted them warmly. Since they were the first to ever appear at the Theater, and watched their orchestration talent while alive, The Puppeteer saw this as fate and offered a deal to them. The Puppeteer offered to make them the 2nd in Command of the Theater, the ability to control the instrumentalist and instruments themselves, and being able to practice nonstop without the worry of exhaustion. However, in exchange, their soul is owned by the Puppeteer, having to follow their command when needed. They saw this as a second chance and was pleased with the conditions, accepted eagerly.
They were cruel to most of the souls they owned, working them nonstop, and even breaking limbs to punish them. Even with broken bones, they still make them play, either on their own or through their powers. They didn’t feel the need to get along or even socialize with the other Overlords and often ignored them, even leaving snarky “remarks” and comebacks. Not even The Puppeteer was safe from their sass.
Their name “Stifonies Ziemuzies” is a combination of the Dutch words for “Silent” and Symphony”, and “Sick” and “Music”.
They’re around 8ft 2in, making making them around the same height as Angel Dust.
They have rabbit like features to represent their fondness for rabbits, and rabbits are linked to magicians who are often said to have “a few tricks up their sleeves”.
Their body is covered with small spots to represent smallpox.
They feel like fresh new paper, smooth and warm, and is able to be drawn/written on. This is to represent that they preferred to communicate through writing rather than sign language, but still know how to.
Unlike the other overlords, they only have a “shackle” around their neck, which looks like a bow tie. This is due to them being the 2nd in Command for the Theatre.
They lack a mouth, mainly to represent that they’re mute, but one can form when in their full demon form.
Here is a basic reference without the clothes and makeup:
Text in Photo: Mary is a little lamb, a special little friend. Mary is a little lamb, her curiosity knows no end. Everywhere that Mary went, her bell swung to and fro. Everywhere that Mary went, the smiles start to grow. Mary is a little lamb, a special day arrives. Mary is a little lamb, the most trustful friend alive.
Scent: Roman Chamomile
————————————————————————
As stated in the poll, Mary is essentially a limited time toy to celebrate the 3rd Year anniversary of the Smiling Critters.
While sharing a similar appearance to the Smiling Critters, her plush has a few add-ons:
Her hooves & inner ears are covered in sequins, and she has visible eyelashes. If you squeeze her torso, Mary will talk & sing nursery rhymes. She even comes with her very own book.
For her body, I mainly used different parts of Craftycorn & some bits from Bubba.
Also I was having a hard time figuring out the difference between a German Chamomile flower & a Roman Chamomile flower.
Mary may have ties to another character(s).
Here are the rough draft headshots for Miriam: Swapfell Neue:
Even though Miriam is most likely gonna be a side/background character or a one off sort of character, she is one of my favorites. I hope she radiates “sassy gremlin” & “I’m the main villain of this story” sort of vibe. I’m debating on if I should make her shorter or not. She’s currently around 4’6”, but I think it would be funny to give Ink some competition.
For reference regarding the hair, horns & ears; she’s based of the Pygmy Goat (Picture not mine, found on Google):
Here’s a line of the headshot rough drafts so far:
winter form bunny!!!
(He/him) 🐇🏳️⚧️✨
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.
Rainbow falls au.. Mlp x Gravity falls! The Old Pinestwins! My one million notes shall be heard..
Sorry I haven’t posted in a while, I got sick for a week then just felt no motivation to draw or what to draw.
So I figured something to help out with this is to redesign the Neue AU variants mainly adjusting colors, clothing & general body shape while adding some story elements for you all to read about them.
Right now, I’m currently trying to pick color palettes for each variant. Basing the colors off the different goat breeds while adding some other colors to prevent them from looking too bland. I’m also changing/adding a few of the characters.

Stragedys is the Overlord over the Playwright industry, specifically as a director and writer, and is part of the Theatre Overlords lead by The Puppeteer.
He grew up on a small farm in Doxato, Greece during the late 19th century. During this time, Greece was poor and close to bankruptcy, however, he was a positive face amongst the townspeople.
He was a hard-worker and always lent out a helping hand to those around him. But as much as he liked working, he found great comfort in the words of stories. After he paid the necessities, he would use whatever he had left to gather stories of all kinds and make his own personal makeshift library. However, as the country grew poorer and his allowance grew less, he started to write his own stories to fulfill his dream.
His uncle, who saw his creativity in his stories, was a shipowner and offered to take him on adventures to help inspire him for his stories. However, during one of these adventures, there was a great storm causing both the uncle and the ship to sink to the bottom of the sea. Stragedys was the sole survivor and constantly blames himself for this tragedy. He stopped writing and drowned himself in work and chores.
Then in the early 1910s, the Balkan Wars erupted. He entered these wars willingly, giving all his energy and releasing all his anger on the opponent’s soldiers. He was fierce but reckless; his family pleaded with him to stop and think, but he ignored them. He survived the 1st Balkan War, but wasn’t so lucky during the 2nd Balkan War.
When charging, he got shot several times before being shot in eye, and eventually bleeding out on the field.
After arriving in Hell, he was immediately greeted by The Puppeteer, who has read his stories and watched his struggle during his past life. The Puppeteer offered him a deal, they would bring back the passion he once had for writing, give him dreams and nightmares to inspire new stories for him to write, the ability to create emotion manifestation plays from these stories, the power to turn any of the souls he owns into natural actors for said plays. However, in exchange, his soul is owned by the Puppeteer, having to follow their command when needed. Longing for the days of his stories, and the thought of turning these stories into moving plays, he accepted The Puppeteer’s deal.
He’s definitely more social and outgoing than the other Overlords, much like how he was when he was alive. He tries to get along with everyone, being polite and respectful even towards the rudest individual, but he views The Puppeteer as a god of some sort, praising him for the gifts they bestowed onto them. After the Puppeteer invited Charlie and the gang to watch one of their performances, he met with Charlie and immediately started to flatter her, trying to get her praise for his plays. Even after learning about the Hazbin Hotel, and what Charlie is trying to accomplish at said hotel, he only cares about what goes on at the Theater. He both deeply admires and fears The Puppeteer, doing anything and everything to gain their approval.
His name “Stragedys” is a combination of the Greek word for “Soldier” and Tragedy.
She is around 8ft 5in tall, making him slightly taller than Angel Dust, who’s around 8ft 2in.
He’s a cyclops for a few reasons:
Cyclops are from Greek Mythology.
He lost one of his eyes during the war.
Clyclops are described to be violent and not the brightest, which fits how Stragedys was towards the end of his life.
Regarding the colors, I decided to do more seaweed colors mainly to represent the incident that lost his uncle and his general motivation to write.
He has marks that look like shot wounds on his head, neck, and torso to represent how he died.
The cuffs around his ankles, wrists, and neck act as “shackles” due to being under The Puppeteer’s control.
His eye is actually detachable, and can be used had a weapon. When it pops out, it turns to stone and can be used as a chained wrecking ball.
Here is a basic reference without the clothes and his hair down:
