OC REWORK / REDESIGN : CHAU
(TW: SUICIDE AND MENTIONS OF ABUSE)
Okay, so a lot has changed since when I first made her, to be honest, her lore was all over the place and never made sense to me. So now, in September 2025 I finally have a consistent lore. This has also affected her design as well!
First off, this is her lore pointed out.
- she’s the result of an affair between her father and wiggly. This resulted in her being a little bit green when she was a baby, she later grew out of this, and was told it was a birth defect, so she never really questioned it.
- she was also baptised as a Christian when she was little, and as well as her dad being a pastor, she’s carried on these beliefs up till now. Though sometimes she’ll struggle when it comes to the belief itself, she knows that she’s bound to make mistakes, because she’s human. Right?
- later at age 10, her dad committed due to the guilt of the affair.
- the death of her husband led her mother to become more..abusive that’s before. Which also led to Chau developing C-PTSD as well as a fear of failure and abandonment.
- At age 12, her and her sister (Duyen) left Vietnam and moved to Hatchetfeild. Purchasing a small house near the edge of the island.
- She joined halfway through freshman year, struggling to make friends. She was bullied..obviously. But it started to effect her less as she grew up.
Only in some timelines, she’s aware she’s an affair baby. In majority, she just assumes it’s all birth defect. Why would she question what her father told her? And in those timelines when she’s aware, it isn’t normally good for her.
Think about it, if you lived your life thinking your dad was the ideal Christian man, only to find out he in fact wasn’t, how would you react? It’d probably break everything in your mind at worst.
SOMETIMES I’ll make it so she comes to terms with that fact, and she’ll have a nice daughter father relationship with wiggly. But that’s only when I’m in a good mood I’m gonna be honest..
I took inspiration from scenecore, or just scene in general. I say scenecore since she normally over accessories, so I wouldn’t really count it as just scene. I also wanted to show some connection with wiggly in her design. So I’ve had her hair reflect that, as well as her face. Hair wise, I wanted it to look like the inside of tentacles. I don’t know what they’re called. The little spots octopuses have. I also wanted to copy the black spots wiggly has on his plush, so instead of black they’re green. Not ALWAYS, but they’re just green because I wanted them to be green.
Also her left eye is green. With the sclera being more yellowish. So it could easily be played off as heterochromia. The coloured streak in her hair is meant to represent the lords in black, in the order of the summoning.
T’noy karaxis (yes he’s there)
Also a cross, since she’s..well, Christian. I don’t really know how to explain that one.
