Cadence

originally a fan character for a FFXV AU of mine, but both has since been collecting dust in the back of my mind for a while. in the AU, Cadence is a Galahdian immigrant living in Insomnia who becomes friends with Prince Noctis and becomes a fifth member of the retinue. intensely curious about the world, he's become well-known for being the first Galahdian graduate to become a top researcher working within the Citadel, made even more impressive by his young age.

this particular design was when i D&D'ified them, which will be replaced by their "default" design later. also yea, their resemblance to Ardyn was accidental but i kinda like it lol
