Hello I'm Cloud! My main is @forecast-rain and this blog is where I'll post stuff about my ocs! (Also, here's my art fight in case you want more info or smth)
This blog will double as an ask blog so feel free to send asks addressed to my little guys! :) I think the ask answers will generally be like... post-canon or smth? Not sure though. A universe where it's all fine and good maybe.
the tagging system:
for answered asks I will use "#the guys answer!"
for oc art I will use "#they have a face!"
for just generally talking about oc stuff I'll use "#talking about them"
all in-character stuff will be tagged with "#oc lore"
for other stuff I will use "#general posting"
I will also tag whatever oc I mention in the post with their name (no surname)
I will now list some basic info about my little guys and the worlds they come from!
So I have 2 main oc worlds (and I name them after the first character created in said world)
update: got some new silly guys, gonna briefly mention them below <3
???
Traveler - a traveler who's distrustful of others and on some sort of quest. seems to be at a pretty low point. (she/her)
Shopkeeper - a shopkeeper who runs a shop! silly goofy guy with no secrets definitely. (he/him)
(sometimes I use they/them for them instead of the binary pronouns shrug)
Sylvia's world
Her world is a modern world just some people are animal hybrids. Why? Because the character who this world was based around was a catgirl originally and it would feel weird to change it now.
This world features:
Sylvia Water - a workoholic catgirl who is very focused on doing well in school, never seeming to take a break. I wonder why? (the og and my pfp often <3 ) (she/her)
Lilly Costanzo - the popular girly girl who loves makeup. Despite being surrounded by people she seems lonely. (she/her)
Olive - the delinquent with blue hair and pronouns. seems to dislike Lilly... and it's mutual. why is that? (she/her)
Astro - he's. a lot. depressed guy who is very snarky. I tend to compare him to snny from omri sometimes (he/him)
Trevor - drama nerd and an anxious mess. he's trying to work up his courage to approach his childhood best friend (he/him)
the pronouns aren't 100% set in stone except for Trevor and Olive. Also applies to the characters later.
Mike's world
I always have trouble explaining his world lmao. Mike's world has two planes of existence that are connected - a magic dimension and a dimension that's basically our world. The modern dimension isn't aware of the magic dimension and tbh the magic dimension isn't really aware of the non-magic dimension either other than the elites. These two worlds were once one. Perhaps somebody knows something about this?
Mike Maristo - magician that instead of doing magic tricks uses real magic. Seriously he sucks so bad at magic tricks help him. Also a himbo (he/him)
Lenore - Mike's new neighbor! She's pleasant to chat with though she always seems busy. Wonder why? (she/her)
Danielle - a seamstress who appears quite cold but cares a lot. Mike's bestie. He irritates her so much (she/her)
François - a rival magician. Seems to hate Mike for some reason. (he/him)
Other
Then there's the ocs that don't fit into any of these worlds, such as:
Tina - a girl born without powers in a world where everyone has them. One day found a magical amulet that lets her create clouds and has been a traveler ever since. (she/her)
Vanessa - an angel who got kicked out of heaven for being bad at being an angel lmaooo loserrr. Became a fortune teller. Obsessed with getting her position back (she/her)
for this, I think best would be shopkeeper!! guy literally has a garden in his house lmao he's perfect for this.
who I would not assign though... something tells me fire and plants don't mix so sorry mike, you're getting
38. Making an important phone call
oh wow let me think... phone call, phone call... I think sylvia would be good at it, but also she's teenager. I think traveler could do it but also her world doesn't exactly have phones yet lmao.
for the would not I would nottt assign trevor phone duties cause like man he's anxioussss also a teenager. shopkeeper also in the would not be assigned lmaoooo
who I'd choose: Sylvia. Girl loves water she'd be fine. responsible.
who I'd NOT choose: Mike. he'd forget about it and put it off and forget about it and
18. Moving furniture
who I'd choose: Mike. I think he's decently strong. and friendly. he would not mind. (another one I thought about was like, traveler, but that moreso depends on her point in the timeline lmao.)
who I'd NOT choose: shopkeeper. he's sooo scrawny. and sure, he can do magic but like. look at him. would you trust him with moving furniture?

Remembering something that can't be written down right now
in news of new notes on my sillies art (hi >:3) have some doodles of partner's clover (formerly referred to as seamstress) slight redesign! she's very silly. and I need to make a proper ref for him where she's in her wheelchair. because my friend made a very pretty design for it...
[characters are clover (she/him) and traveler (she/her)!]
These are more focused on the background stuff rather than the usual "what would the character do in XY situation" kinds of asks. I've been looking for something like this for quite a while and in the end decided to make my own. Feel free to use, go wild, enjoy
What was the original thought that led to the creation of this character?
How long was the process before the character reached its final version? (or a version that would be clearly recognizable as the character?)
What was the first thing you decided on, the character's name, appearance, personality or their role in the story?
And reverse, which one of the four things did you struggle with the most?
How did you choose their name and why? Was it simply based on vibes or is there any specific meaning behind the name? Are the reasons behind their name different in- and out of universe?
What was the thought process behind their appearance? Did you go mostly for the aesthetic or are there other reasons they look the way they do?
What is an aspect of their appearance that you like the most?
What is the origin of their personality? And let's be honest - how much of it is projecting?
How big is their role in the story? Do they make a frequent appearance or are they a character with little "screentime" but big influence? Or are they just a favourite background guy?
What is their main character arc in the story? Where do they start and how do they develop? Do they get a happy ending or is their story a tragic one?
Is there any existing character from other media that your character resembles? Was the resemblance intentional or was it a coincidence?
Do you have a playlist for the character? What songs do you associate with them and why?
Do you have a voice claim for the character? What do you imagine the character sounds like?
Do you have any quotes tied to the character, either from the story itself or from another source that fit them?
Have you ever made a moodboard for them?
Is there any memes or running jokes associated with the character, both in- and out of universe?
Are there any motifs or symbols associated with the character? How are they represented, in their design, personality or in some other way?
Does the character have other characters connected to them? Do you have a family tree and "offscreen" connections made up for them or do they exist in a vacuum purely for the purpose of the story?
What is your general favourite thing about the character? What is your least favourite?
Bonus question: share any additional thoughts, art, favourite scenes, anything you've been waiting for a chance to ramble about
