ok ill quickly introduce my ocs!

Vasili Volkov (Born 28 BBY, Died 34 ABY) (He/Him) was an Imperial Intelligence field agent turned reluctant Rebel in his later life. During his Imperial career, he became known for the unforgiving methods he would use to complete his missions. Despite his calculating, vicious life, he had many good friends, including Mehri Reza.

Mehri Reza (Born 28 BBY, Died 53 ABY) (She/Her) was a Jedi and Rebel who, despite not following the Jedi ways exactly, was known for always seeking justice for those who couldn't. After the collapse of the Empire, she abandoned the New Republic, only to be persuaded by Vasili Volkov to rejoin the resistance to fight the First Order.

Eolsha Huangshoi (Born 22BBY, Died 56 ABY) (She/They) was a Rebel and entrepreneur, with morals just as dubious as her business practices. They had a troubled, violent life, often resorting to the worst means to scrape by, resulting in a grudge against the Empire. Eventually, she would come out on the right side, but it took many unforgivable actions to get there.

Ekthmel’wazioi’logaa (Born 23 BBY, Died 72 ABY) (Xe/He/They) was a Chiss Sith, who became known throughout the galaxy for their horrifying capabilities. Xe grew up in a prestigious family on Csilia, a family that xe would later slaughter in cold blood. But finding no purpose in his life, he ran away. There he found a daughter, who melted his troubled heart, giving him to be good once again.

Genome Tordar-Talzin (Born 18 BBY, Died 65 ABY) (He/Him) was Rebel Pilot, who was born from Coruscant elite, destined for greatness until he was forced to kill his father. After that, he became a high ranking Rebel general, working with the New Republic in the same way. Even when he started his family with Armen Tordar-Talzin, he remained just as dedicated to the cause.

Armen Tordar-Talzin (Born 16 BBY, Died 69 ABY) (She/He) was a Nightsister turned Rebel, turned Coruscant politican, was a complicated person to say the least. She hid from the Empire, pretending to be a Mandalorian bounty hunter, before joining the Rebels and the New Republic because of Genome Tordar-Talzin.

thanks for reading, feel free to stick around!

The trope where people don't recognize each other because it's been so long since they last interacted and they've both changed so much that they're basically strangers UNTIL one of them does their Signature Thing™ and the other just stops dead because oh. It's YOU. All at once it's so clearly you

[petrichormeraki]

This flavor of reblog to this post always makes me laugh so hard thank you

Notes on Torturing The Character In The Science Facility

my takes on this trope rarely if ever have anything to do with the character being "special" or being studied for powers they innately have, if they are special its something that was done to them

it's about the medical trauma

it's about the violation and lack of bodily autonomy

the "living weapon" trope, but the key characteristic is catastrophic functionality

i love, love, love the concept of "catastrophic functionality" in a person: character that can tank ludicrous amounts of damage and just Keep Going in virtually all circumstances barring outright dismemberment. They can keep going, so do they "deserve" rest and/or pain relief?

after a lifetime of having their distress treated as whiny and unreasonable, they have what would be a dangerously high tolerance to pain and exhaustion.

another key function of the Science Facility is to fix the damage Character takes, maybe using enhanced healing technologies or 3D printed organs or something. this leads to Character's body being treated as relatively disposable cause "we can just fix them"

extreme version of this: Character can't die even if they wanted to

people who work with Character are informed that they're dangerous and arbitrarily violent, and their fear of Character makes it easier to justify restricting autonomy

It is TRUE, cause Character does not have tools to set boundaries or protect their body other than violence. vicious cycle of being perceived as dangerous and therefore denied autonomy, and being forced to use violence to defend autonomy

the restraints used to hold Character look like major overkill, which underscores how dangerous they are. LOVE this trope

character being desexualized to the point that their non-consent to touch, to being stripped down and examined, or to procedures is trivialized. There is no non-clinical context for their body, and the "clinical" framework eclipses any possibility for bodily violation to be understood as violent.

types of uncanniness: Character looks human but has some subtle inhuman traits or characteristics. (I'm obsessed with reflective eye shine, personally.) OR Character looks like they've been taken apart and put back together, like flesh pulled over a much more unforgiving and indestructible metal scaffold. OR Character gives off "undead" vibes; they're just not quite alive in a way that sets off air raid sirens in people's brains

Often, Character is dead and Came Back Wrong (varying levels of literalness)

anyways yeah. i never stopped writing this trope and probably never will. it's a good one

Which OC has heterochromia?

[sun-moon-talia]

believe it or not some female characters don’t have to be mothers. some female characters shouldn’t be mothers. some female characters have a history of expressed disinterest in being mothers. some female characters would have to do a complete 180 in characterization in order to be mothers.

1st oc: hi im just a normal highschooler im kinda depressed but i swear im not a mary sue

30th oc:

[sourdough-seal]

most important part of the writing process actually is when you loop a single song on max volume and stare at the word document and imagine the characters doing things for 14 hours. this is known as getting in the zone

[bweirdart]

nearly oc-tober time again - time for some prompts for 2024

F.A.Q

do i have to draw?

not at all! you are free to participate with any medium that suits you... writing, artwork, free bases and templates, simple text posts, in-character-as-your-oc roleplay, whatever! (just no stealing or AI)

do i have to make new content?

nope! re-uploading old stuff that fits the prompts is allowed (and encouraged) ... old art that didn't get the appreciation it needed always deserves a chance to be shared again, it's a fun throwback!

do i have to post every day?

nope! only 10 days are mandatory (the ones in red with a star symbol) and everything else (yellow) is 100% optional! if you're busy or tired, please skip as many as you want

can i start early?

you can prep your posts in advance if you need to ... but please wait until the right day in october to share them!

can i re-upload your prompt list to another site?

i would prefer if you dont - i have accounts on most sites, so just reblog/retweet/share from me!

[icealeen]

[ren-is-real]

You know when

[seth-whumps]

prim and proper dignified characters pale, sickly, weak on their feet. unbuttoning their collar, sweat-soaked hair, unsure footing and fluttery breaths. muttering a hesitant, "I don't... feel well."

[hexzell]

Working on her design

[killshot-mantell]

thinming about vasili and mehris parents meeting. the volkovs would give them bread and the rezas would give them machine parts. they dont speak each others language but it doesnt really matter. they know that they can keep each others children safe. sometimes the rezas see the volkovs being so happy to live such a simple life and cant help but envy them so much. they wouldve been friends in another life
