Shrine to the Dark Prince, Randal Vi Ivory, My Special Boy

Randal and all art on this page belongs to Captainhowdie. Will add more pages later.

We're happily married.

Randal Ivory is a human-like cryptid with no definitive age. He is a boy who wants to make as many friends as possible. He likes dolls, humans, blood, video games, moe anime, causing chaos and problems, the forest, etc.

the first time i met randal was oh i don’t know… a few years ago, maybe in 2021? i didn’t think much of him at first and thought it was a russian comic xD one day i saw a gif of him that i thought was cute so i saved it. this was a few months before i read ranfren for the first time. this was the gif btw. i thought it was cute and relatable and kinda looked like me :D

i was on pinterest looking at teach the cat(another indie project) and i kept on getting ranfren stuff recommend to me. i decided to finally read it one year ago (as of april 7th 2025) because of this really really cute (and admittedly sexy) fan art of randal. i fell head over heels for randal and haven’t looked back since. xD and I haven't looked back since. He's taken over my mind, I love him so much. I currently own a necklace, two keychains, a paper doll, and a plush of him, all of which I handmade myself. Randal, I love you so much. You mean so much to me and I love you with my entire heart. I genuinely have a crush on you and I would perform a blood sacrifice for you if you asked.

Ranfren has inspired me in ways I can’t describe, it’s inspired me to be much more creative and comfortable making art, it’s taught me that not everything has to be 100% polished to be considered “worthy.” I will always be grateful to Cap for sharing such wonderful art, stories, and characters. Everything they make is beautiful. As for Randal specifically oh my God. I think about him during all my waking hours, fantasizing about our life together and what dating him would be like. He is also all I doodle/draw. I draw him so much it’s insane, I will draw either him or a little bunny. Sometimes both of them together, because the bunny represents me sort of. He's helped me be more honest with myself about the things I like/what I find attractive or interesting or cool. If I could send a message to Randal I would tell him that I love him, and that I would always be his friend. I would thank him for being so unique and weird and scary and just thank him for being unapologetically himself. Oh, and I would tell him he’s a total cutie and that he should call me.

Sleep tight my sweet prince.
