Here, we will be showcasing various outfits, all created by our star, Commander Xac! Flash photography IS allowed, and quite frankly, encouraged during the show! If you like what you see, feel free to link back, tell your friends, and give our superstar a huge round of applause! He's open for artwork and/or gifts, but they are in no way mandatory; A simple "Great job" works just as much~ Alternatively, feel free to leave a Like [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/76012859]here[/url]! Xac admits to not caring about this creature, but hey, it tries to represent its host to the best of its ability. ;D [b]A few guidelines to keep the show running smoothly:[/b] Please do not post on this thread! Xac and his outfits are the focus here, and he does not want any interruptions. If you have suggestions or compliments, please PM me or post on my art thread (or shop if you want to commission as well). Please refrain from using any form of negativity. Xac puts in all his efforts into his outfits, and while working on his temper, is unable to control it as well as one would hope. It's in his programming, so don't do something to anger him. Also, his wife is the manager for his shows, and she's anxious as it is, so please refrain from leaving negative messages or anything insulting in any messages, thank you. Nothing NSFW or FR will be posted here! If you do see a piece that may require removal from site, please let me know and I'll do it. I try to keep my onsite art safe for all viewers when possible. Please do not suggest anything NSFW or FR, as I don't want any trouble.

[center][b]INFO:[/b] [img]https://i.imgur.com/WZnYdgr.png[/img] (ref sheet is filler; I'll add something later) The Star, The One and Only, The Model! Introducing [i]Xac![/i] Xac is the former Commander of the Destructo Army, and retired from service, but still given the duty to protect his kingdom. During this retirement, he took the path to stardom and became a model, thanks to the support of his beloved wife, Fuzo. You may see her in some of his modeling shows, so keep an eye out! Xac takes great pride in his work, and always strives for the top. While his specialties involved creating weapons while in the military, his skills only improved when he began creating unique outfits for his shows. His performances gained interest from the beginning, and ever since, he's been known as the Dark Kingdom's Superstar, and uses the stage name "Xac Attack!", oddly inspired by a once-hated nickname from his superior in the army. He is beginning a line of merchandise - some strictly for citizens of the Dark Kingdom only, and others able to be shipped universally. While it's been suggested that they avoid using dark magic to send such items, it's unclear what the actual tactic will be. Merchandise will vary from shirts to autographed photos of retired outfits, to posters and items no one else knows of yet. Plushes are a rumored item in the works, but no one has seen one yet, so this has not been confirmed. Due to a high demand of such products, however, there's a high chance that this will indeed become a reality. While Xac isn't known for using social media, he is known for being social in public. He enjoys meeting fans and giving them additional chances for them to see him up close and take photos with (and of) him. However, he will refuse any engagement with those who are rowdy or otherwise cause trouble for him. He will not let anyone ruin his reputation, and will take drastic measures when necessary.

[center] [b]SUGGESTIONS AND MERCHANDISE:[/b] Xac is always open for outfit ideas, and actually used some offsite ideas for his career! These are a huge hit and he enjoys seeing how people react to them. However, he does have his reputation to keep alive, and some outfits sadly cannot work as they reflect on him poorly as an individual or as a soldier. If you want to suggest an outfit, PM me or post on either of my linked threads (in sig; one is my art dump and the other my shop should you want to commission me as well). Xac does not seek payment for suggestions, but if you like what he did with your ideas, a tip is always welcome~ Due to his high standards, Xac does have guidelines. Trust me, he still has his soldier programming, and you don't want him to use it. [b]What he WILL try:[/b] * Masculine clothing * Tank tops, sleeveless shirts / jackets * Dark and neutral colors * Outfits involving armor (to an extent) * Large boots (he loves these) [b]What he MIGHT try:[/b] * Fandom outfits (depends on the fandom; see my shop for more) * Some light colors (such as light blue) * Full coverage (long sleeves, etc) [b]What he WILL NOT try:[/b] * Feminine anything * Outfits with purely super bright colors (basically covering the entire thing; think neon, yellow, or pink) * Patterned clothing (he may try simple patterns, but they're usually too gaudy for him) * Anything else that reflects poorly on him as a soldier or guardian of the [b]Dark[/b] Kingdom [b]Special Occasions:[/b] * Suits * Tuxes * Classy / Fancy outfits [i]In other words, if Fuzo doesn't practically beg for this or he's not celebrating anything big like a wedding anniversary, forget it.[/i] [b]NEW: Visual list of what he will and will not showcase![/b] Because tbh, [s]Fuzo's description skills are kinda lacking.[/s] Xac wants to make sure people know for certain what he may or may not do. [img]https://i.imgur.com/3Bi6dZy.png[/img] [b]MERCHANDISE SHELF:[/b] "Free to use, pay with your heart!" - XAM slogan While there's not much to choose from, sometimes new items pop in from time to time. There are strict rules for taking one home with you, however. [b]Do not remove the tags![/b] - Let others know where you found your quality merch! [b]Don't claim you made them![/b] - Xac will find you and have your merch taken away. This could punish innocent bystanders as well (in other words, I will remove them from my image host). Don't ruin the fun for others! [i]This also includes using as NFTs or AI generated "inspiration"![/i] [b]Free to Use, Not to Gain Profit![/b] - Don't use for personal gain. Again, Xac will find you and take them away, then blacklist you from his shows. He has guards who see everything, so don't test him. [i]This also goes back to NFTs or cryptocurrency! Don't use to make [b]ANY[/b] currency; If I want to charge for them, I will do it myself![/i] Suggestions for these are also open. Contact me if you want to suggest anything.

[b]The Beginning[/b] [img]https://i.imgur.com/Om9Pm9w.png[/img] The outfit that started it off, inspired by a piece someone drew for Xac offsite! Xac just found about a potential retirement and was wondering what he'd do next. After finishing his work, he figured he'd relax and do something with Fuzo. However, he didn't expect Fuzo to see him like this, and after this picture was sent to Lord Xero, Xac was destined to become a model. Outfit consists of the Destructo Army uniform, complete with badges and symbols of honor, as well as thick armored pants that allowed Xac to move freely in battle. On one side, the Xero Emblem is stitched in the sleeve, and showcases his loyalty to the mighty ruler. Underneath is a plain white shirt, of which was optional while in battle, in case it got ruined while engaging in combat. Due to lessening of military work, Xac wore it because he could.

[b]Relaxing~[/b] [img]https://i.imgur.com/AXYnZIO.png[/img] After his retirement and taking on the role of a model, Xac tried simpler outfits for his wife, Fuzo. He actually showcased this outfit and the one above during a ceremony for Lord Xero. He shows a rare sign of relaxation as he stretches out on a long cushion, showing that even the toughest soldiers can have a moment of peace. Outfit consists of a long, black, sleeveless jacket and his usual armored pants. The jacket is made out of super soft material and even Xac had to admit he wanted to make more like it.

[b]Take a Picture, it'll Last Longer...[/b] [img]https://i.imgur.com/9DTBSj1.png[/img] Xac wasn't completely sold on this career, even though he was heavily encouraged to keep going. Despite his unamusement, he crafted another outfit similar to the jacket from before, but this time, in white. His gaze was somewhat cold and unimpressed at first, but as the cameras began to flash, he began to enjoy himself later. Unfortunately, no one really posted any of the pics of his more joyful state... Outfit consists of a white sleeveless jacket. It's been decided that most of his outfits would have his armored pants.

[b]The Secret Outfit[/b] [img]https://i.imgur.com/C7FJ2t5.png[/img] The outfit that made Xac most nervous due to its secrecy. No one was supposed to find out...But Xero of all people found out. Xac was still getting used to his career, but after a while of being praised by fans at a ceremony in Xero's honor, he gave the promise to show off what he could. After a grand milestone, his promise came into place, and this outfit was the star. Striking a few poses, it was clear why Xac was nervous about it at first, but at the same time, now it's showing his personality: He's not afraid to take on challenges, even if it could ruin him for life. But modeling was his challenge, and it's doing just the opposite of ruining him. In fact, it made him better. Outfit consists of a trio of straps jointed together, with transparent, red material on the shoulders to showcase his figure. Around his waist is a thin layer of black material with wing like fringes on each side that drape down slightly.

[b]A Different Kind of Fusion:[/b] [img]http://i.imgur.com/9RwYDCd.png[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/9Rb0Ft1.png[/img] Xac's first finished outer world outfit; It's proclaimed to be the perfect [s]blend[/s] FUSION of science and fashion. Even with other finished products, he boasts that this one is his favorite to this day. Xac can use these arms in multiple ways, but he prefers to not have them as often after they took over his mind - They were at first enfused with Apocalyx, something he didn't know when making the outfit.

[b]Pizza Delivery~[/b] [img]http://i.imgur.com/FW6c3d8.png[/img] [img]https://i.imgur.com/p16PRUG.png[/img] [i]But don't be surprised if the [b]pizza[/b] slices [b]you![/b][/i] Another outer dimension outfit, and Xac's proclaimed second favorite due to how it contrasts from his usual personality. The concept had a vehicle to move him from place to place, but he deemed it useless and scrapped it. He had wings anyway, he didn't need it. After seeing a new robot in a realm he once visited, Xac not only made one outfit, but [i]two[/i], in its honor. After being questioned why multiple times, he flat out admitted: "Fuzo loves the thing, so I'm doing it for her." before adding "Don't ask me for any dang pizza because you're not getting any!". However, Xac and Fuzo are occasionally seen having a Pizza Night while watching this robot in action. Fuzo tends to claim there's a "Ripperoni Pizza" somewhere, but no one knows where. Xac just replies that she's "just having a moment".
