Lexi's Character Creation

This is the Place of Posting for random character facts relating to Leximaven's OC's. Feel free to ask questions, of me or the characters!! Masterlist coming as soon as I find time/remember.

Character quirk idea

A character who invents their own words. eg. pointmore is the opposite of pointless.

Perhaps they are failing english, but they're actually a new shakespeare who will invent new words?

Random polyvore set for Emma! Her fashion is kind of developing in my head, she's become a lot less anal about her image..... As such I'm not sure it's really very Emma but at least it looks cool.

[lexisocs]

I was thinking about my similarities to Emma, and our differences. How she doesn't really get close to people other than Allie and Sarah, and how I think that must be kind of to her advantage. We both wear our hearts on our sleeve, but people find her more infuriating with all her quests for justice and rights than they do me. I'm quieter, and I spend more time thinking about the people I actually physically meet than she does. People find me adorable and amusing, but Emma obnoxious and self-righteous. Which means that she can't be used and hurt by people she gives her everything to, because nobody really wants what she's got to give.

I have a fancast for Emma!!

(Is it still a fancast if you're the creator...?)

Alex, I think you will appreciate this.

The only thing is that Emma's eyes are blue. But the hair, the face, the clothes... and I think Carey would get the personality just right.

Fun Fact: Emma calls Allie 'Xandra' because she always has to be different - unusual is an added bonus

[lexisocs]

Allie's iTunes (so far) (and only going off of what's in MY iTunes)

Alanis Morissette Amiel The Civil Wars Coldplay Death Cab for Cutie Elizabethtown soundtrack Epicure Eurythmics Five for Fighting Hilary Duff (ssssssshh) Owl City Paul Simon Pet Shop Boys Pete Murray - but only the See The Sun album Rufus Wainwright Snow Patrol Suzanne Vega Tom Petty aaaaand some other random songs that I have

Oh, and also Lior and Missy Higgins because there has to be SOMETHING for Emma to listen to when she steals Allie's iPod, pain in the arse that she is.

Having a problem with Emma.

She's a bit of a preppy person, but to rebel against her mother's idea that she HAS to be preppy, she's started dressing kind of gothic. However, she's still subconsciously preppy because she either wears pretty Victorian style stuff, or mixes in a few really bright colours with the black.

The clothing is something that's very clear to me, but I'm working on music tastes at the moment. I know Emma doesn't always make the right decisions - she'll give up things she likes and pretend she hates them just to make a point. But would she do that with music? Music is so important to humans, and her tastes aren't typical so there's less of a point to make. I just can't imagine someone listening to rock that they hated without going crazy.

Alexandra Irene Blake

This is Allie - if she were a Disney princess. Proper images will come later when I can find something THAT'S ACTUALLY ACCURATE.

Allie is the main character of a novel I want to write (as yet unnamed - not even nicknamed).

She is a slightly edited version of Vegas, my earlier OC. And by that I mean she has a better name, I've fleshed her out some more, and I made a few changes to her 'plot'.

[lexisocs]

THIS BLOG IS GOING TO BE IN USE ONCE MORE.

So I'm starting to try and develop characters for the two novels I'm planning. When I want to ramble about them, I'll be posting here. I'm going to try not to give away the plots though.

(Just tagging everyone I thought might be interested in my ramblings.)

Update on the sassy gay friend:

His name is Luke.

So far, that's all I know.

Can your characters and my characters go out for coffee one time? I must introduce you all. There's Nadav, Joey, Mia, Shea, Laurie, Grace, Simon (we all love Simon), Jackson, K.K., Alanor, Casper (he's a guide dog but we love him anyway), Alice and many more of the awesomeness. Mind you, they're all from different stories but meh. Many hugs, Kess.

Um. I'd be happy to try?

I'm not so good at this whole OC thing, and they're not very dimensional yet, but it could be interesting/a challenge!

Casper XD that's so cute!

Ooh! Lists!! Might as well list this here, since it hasn't happened yet...My lovelies (and sometimes not so lovely individuals) are Abby, Bea, Mary-Sue, Vegas, Thalamus, Sarah, Tabitha, Debby, Carlotta, Sonny, Owen, Will, Anna, Leah, Script (The Unknown), Julian and Daniel.No guide dogs tho. Sorry.

If they're all from different stories, then they could meet each other too!

All the hugs and love <3

Is it bad that I'm coming up with pairings for all my characters?

The few I didn’t have paired have kind of naturally gravitated towards each other…

I was kind of looking forward to some kind of surprise shipping from readers, like Kapashima - but it looks like that won’t be happening.

It’s somewhat concerning really - I only have five guy characters, and… I think nine major female characters? Tenish? Plus that other girl I’ve paired with someone, who hasn’t even been imagine yet…

Oh and Klaine of course, plus Wes and David… Ok, not everyone is gay. I overreacted.

Yet I have no gay guys… but as it’s an all-girls school, who would there be to be gay? The only likely interaction woud be boyfriends/brothers. Oooh!! Sassy gay friend!! For… Debby? Yes, Debby. Yay!

Hi.

But I’m afraid I don’t post here much - obviously.

That’s okay!! I’m still excited to see your OCs! Someday I’ll introduce you to Zoe and Chris. They live in my head. :P

But I like Mary-Sue!! hehe, she’s cute. And Daniel and Julian? THAT’S…

I hope she manages to get better. It’s just so unfair!! Not cool. :P (I feel repetitive.)

So what are her symptoms? Weariness, and? This interests me. :P I’d like to diagnose her! haha. (My inner scientist comes out…I was a bio major up until last year! weeeiiird, right? :P) 

 Oops! You know how sometimes you're multi-tasking so much at once that something slips through the net? Sorry about that!!

o.O That iiiiis weird. I loathe science. I got my first ever B in year ten science, because I didn't bother working since I knew I wouldn't be doing sciences the next year. I'm a natural at psychology though, funnily enough.

Symptoms - well. Haha I just thought of showing you all the artwork she's based off, because obviously you'd understand her then - but then I realised she's actually in my head. Everyone would get a different interpretation from the art, but my Julian is in my head. (I have to say - how awesome is it that her name is Julian? I kind of love it. But I suppose it will cause a lot of confusion :s but then, who would read my stuff, and actually chat about it on tumblr? Exactly)

Physically she looks very healthy - good tanned skin, lots of colour in her cheeks - it's her behaviour that is off. Which is what led me to think it might be depression. But that doesn't feel... right. It seems much more serious - which doesn't sound right, of course depression is serious, but it's more serious in the minds of those around her. Like cancer-serious, which is why I thought she might be dying. Another reason depression feels off is because she doesn't ever get angry, and she doesn't find it difficult to relate to others.

Her symptoms are: well, she's very quiet and slow. Her eyes are always downcast, her expression is tired and hopeless. Her focus is entirely internalised, and I feel as if Daniel and others are constantly trying to bring her awareness out. Which is why she's always surrounded by flowers. Oh - I've just realised, in every bit of artwork her eyes are closed... that explains a lot.

Any ideas, oh genius Cat of mine? I think it's more a psychological thing than a physical thing, but I'm stuffed if I can work out what. It just doesn't seem to fit depression.

 Mary-Sue is awesome. She's become this total dynamo, and manages to worm her way into practically every scene I've started planning. I am so excited by her.

Daniel and Julian *is* unfair. Though I feel I should mention I've editted that earlier post, so it doesn't say she's dying. I'm really not sure what's wrong with her - I know the symptoms, but not the cause. She might have cancer, she might have some kind of degenerative disease, she might be incredibly depressed - I'm really not sure. I just know she has no energy or enthusiasm. She doesn't hate life, she's just weary all the time. She also doesn't notice much of the world around her (except for the fact that she likes to be surrounded by flowers, even if she doesn't seem to notice they're there), because her perspective is so internalised, she's focussed so hard on just living. I think it might be a fog kind of depression, not a blackness kind.. I don't know :s

YAY!! MEET ALL THE OC'S!!
