Description I posted a doodle of this character idea in my scraps not too long ago, but she didn't have a name yet and it still might change. This is 1/3 of the cast to a new idea, though I'm not at all certain what I'll be doing with that idea. I may attempt a comic (running parallel my existing comics) with some sort of actual story arc.

Magdolene was human long ago, but became a colonial being of flies and maggots surrounding her original skull. It probably involved radiation in some way.

I've always had an obsession with characters made out of multiple creatures, and I feel there has never ever been enough of them. I mean, look how SHORT this page is: [link] ...can you believe that?!

I like to think of Magdolene as really, really flirty, too. Man-crazy, really.

Thanks scythe, you've made me realize that my dream woman will only be attainable through radiation. I hate and love you at the same time. Mostly the latter, though.

I like the name Magdolene a lot, actually. Though LeeSherman had a good idea with Ophelia, too. Hmm...

Anyway, I just wanted to comment on the fact that I love collective creatures, too. She looks like a fun person to be around. Really knows how to party.

The fact that all that's left of her is her skull reminds me of the necromancers whose consciousness was absorbed by the scavengers that were involved in the decomp of their corpses. I read about them in a Lovecraft RPG core-book once, I think. Very spiffy.

This is just un-fricking-canny! I just created a character named "Magdalene" whose name is a pun on "maggot." You'll see her soon enough. But seriously, get out of my head!

lol....well, I looked up names that begin with "mag" and thought "Maggie" would be kinda too simply. I originally considered Maggoty Anne but that's been taken multiple times

I think I like "Maggaret," not a real name, but it sounds like a nice fusion

Maybe Marggot? Or give her a fly scientific name, like Drosophelia?
