I would like to know 2 & 14 re: Adam on that oc question post ovo
Did you design them with any other characters/OCs from their universe in mind?
okay ngl I had to think about this one because his origin is actually super underwhelming and lame. I made Adam about ten years ago because back in the day™ my ocs were high schoolers and I decided I wanted to make a bunch of cliche high school archetypes™ and I was like "hm. Need a background preppy snob character." and that's how Adam was created.
he fucking. looked like this at one point. (2014)
Then as I aged my characters up I was like "anyone who acts like that outside of highschool is a total asshole" and so Adam became an asshole. Then as the genre of my story shifted, so did his characterization, role, and then I eventually caved in and changed his design and now look at him.
(sorry not sorry for using this picture as an example)
idk idk I think I like the "snarky villain who scoffs at everyone but ??? secret vulnerable side ???" type of character.
If you had to narrow it down to 2 things that you MUST keep in mind while working with your OC, what would those things be?
