OC-tober Day 14: Loki 🌾🦋

Project LOKI— a medical experiment turned professional tracker under the employ of the Turks. Loki is professional, cold, and a bit detached from others but is a person who risks their entire being in order to make sure something is done right.

Loki is someone I associate with Vincent and Lucrecia more than anyone else— those were their primary people and are the primary relationships I tend to focus on. During modern day, they're close (?) with the Turks and are insufferable about Vincent once he's active again.

Loki was originally an experiment underneath Dr. Lucrecia's jurisdiction. They were deeply sick due to complications with their mothers' pregnancy and had a predisposition for mako poisoning... and they ended up being given up for experimentation because their parents were tired of taking care of a chronically ill child.

Loki's role within Shinra is as a tracker. They have incredible instincts for hunting down their mark and have the physical capabilities to do so quickly and efficiently. They're actually, usually, pretty goddamn ruthless in doing so.

Loki is... a little naive about the ways of the world outside of Shinra. They were a princess in a tower for so much of their life— sick and bed-bound and then confined to an experiments lab, and then back in Shinra's hands.

They want to experience life, want to meet people and do things and they want to have a life! They are physically able to now, and they want more than anything to feel like they can live for themself.

OC-tober Day 13: Lotus Barany 🔗⚡️

Lotus is a character who I semi-jokingly refer to as my therapy dog character! They are a war medic with no clear memories of their life prior to the war that they served in. They are also basically Aventurine's service dog.

Lotus was a character that I tailored specifically to be of use to Aventurine, and then let their story sort of build itself. Lotus is a quiet person who doesn't have a lot of presence— but in that same vein, it means that they can listen and observe often undisturbed.

They are an Emanator of Abundance, but aren't consciously aware of it. They were given the power to revive the newly-dead, but they were given this ability prior to their memory. Yaoshi took them away from intense heartache and settled them into a war-torn planet with no memories of Before, and they chased after people in attempt to keep them alive.

Lotus has lived a long time and is moderately affected by Mara— they have flare-ups that turn them into a monster, caused by strong feelings of grief, heartache, or distress. This turns them violent and can lead them to cause a lot of destruction until they're soothed, and then they will return to normal.

They are EXTREMELY loyal. They were put under Aventurine's employ against both of their wishes, but came to respect and care a lot about Aventurine. As such, they take orders ONLY from him, and will follow his word down to the letter (even if it's as a huge 'fuck you' to Jade specifically).

Lotus doesn't have a lot of their own desires. They like embroidery and cooking, but will often cater to taking care of other people even when it's to their detriment. They consider it to be their purpose, more of less— they'll go WAY out of the way to help others and keep them alive.

OC-tober Day 12: Lucia Dracov ⚔️🧸

Lucia Dracov, "the Ursa Knight"! One of my oldest sona-OCs and one who is literally a cross-game character because I genuinely was just that attached to some canon characters. They're a prominent part of how I think about FE3H and they're literally my baby.

Luce was a fun exercise of "How do I want to implement Awakening stuff into 3H." because I knew from the beginning I wanted them to be a taguel. Miklan's chapter was super helpful— they still have their animal traits, but they decide to never use their beaststone because they don't want to get mistaken as a monster.

Luce is from Regna Ferox (Awakening) and is the apprentice of Lon'qu, who taught them their swordskills! They go to Fodlan chasing rumors of the Officer's Academy and the legendary knights they supposedly produce, wanting to expand their view of the world while simultaneously getting stronger in the process. They meet Claude and the two of them match each other's freak....pretty instantly, honestly.

During wartime, Luce accidentally becomes an urban legend— kind of like a Robin Hood, almost? There are rumors about a specter who will slaughter brigand companies if they do too much damage to civilians— which basically means Luce killed a lot of thieves and stole back whatever was pilfered from towns.

Luce is sarcastic, a little oblivious, VERY protective, and unable to keep their mouth shut when they think someone else is in the wrong. They have very strong feelings about what they believe in and will defend their ideals and the people they love without hesitation.

They end up marrying Claude a few years after the war is over, joining him in Almyra and helping with the task of opening borders and ushering in the new age that Claude dreams of. They have to establish themself as a capable Consort and someone who deserves respect, but they're more than up to the challenge!!

OC-tober Day 11: Soleo Bellerose 🕊️🎶

the beginning of the third week: my beautiful girl Soleo!! One of my favorite of my Genshin Impact characters, she is a well-known Opera singer - "the Angel of the Opera Epicles".

Soleo is one of my absolute favorite OCs - she's fun to draw and fun for me to think about in all sorts of situations. As of right now, a lot of her origins are undergoing some revamping with the updated information we're getting out of Nod-Krai...

But to put it simply: Soleo is the youngest of Teyvat's Angels who has managed to avoid the curse that turns them all into Seelies. She is somewhat of an older sister figure to Columbina, and she has a strong love for humanity and recording the stories of others.

She and Wriothesley are actively courting at this point in the story! I'm... really obsessed with the two of them: they're one of Fontaine's worst-kept secrets, because everyone wants to know what's going on with Soleo's new beau.

Soleo is a very encouraging person! She cares a lot about kids and cares a lot about the musical cultivation of others along with making sure that histories are recorded correctly. She tries to do good and be kind, even when sometimes she's a bit of a diva, and that makes her beloved by a lot of the Court of Fontaine.

I based her on the idea of gilded statues, which is why she's so white and gold in her design. The dots of red are meant to be symbolic of her relationship with Wriothesley, since I like to think of them all as gifts from him :3c

She has a massive sweet tooth and can be a complete workaholic... her best friends are Navia and Chiori, and they sometimes have to drag her out of her studio.
