Blackjack and his (occasionally) loyal steed, Knightmare. Given their frequent 'personality clashes' it seems at first surprising that these two have tolerated one another's company for as long as they have but they are in a way kindred spirits, having both lost everything that they were to demonic powers. Whilst Blackjack has regained at least some memory of his former life and can even regain his true form on occasion, for Knightmare there is no way back to his once noble unicorn self - even his true name is lost to him. All that is left is a twisted, hateful creature that delights in harm and spite though his overriding hatred for demonkind surpasses his ill will towards other beings.
Despite the common goal, Knightmare has been known to turn on those around him, including his master. Luckily for Blackjack the worst he's suffered during one of these 'episodes' is a few broken ribs but he always has to keep half an eye on the beast.

No, I don't know what they're looking at. And yes, I still need to work on my equines
I drew a picture of these two not long ago but was really unhappy with it (which is why it's not appearing anywhere other than my site) so I decided to have another bash at 'em and this is the result

Awesome job! I new it would look kick ass!
What really impresses me is the coloring/lighting on Blackjack's wings, and the 'fire-like' breath on Knightmare. Thats a really awesome discription! Love it!

Interesting character premise! I've never seen them before, as a new watcher, but I'm impressed. The idea of a demonic unicorn is one I would've never expected, and it comes off incredibly well. Are you writing this story down anywhere, or just telling it in pictures?

Awesome stuff!
he looks plenty equine to me, his muzzle might be a little big, but considering that he's a dragon/equine, I don't see any problem.
I love how you draw these two

Awesome work, they looks even better than I imagined when I saw the sketch. Knightmare looks very cool and Blackjack is, well, Blackjack.
