I would love to know more about Duster!
1. What’s your oc’s most irrational fear? Is there a specific reason this fear came about?
8. What’s it like inside your oc’s mind? (Literally, or metaphorically.)
18. How does your oc see themself? How does this compare to the way other ocs see them?
Ooo, now you've got me thinking!!!
Duster's most irrational fear is probably being alone. Growing up surrounded by other clones, they don't really know what having your own space is like. They share quarters with their Master Aayla (and of course Bly), so they have plenty of time with them, as well as Ahsoka and Duster's batchmate Rath. Some deep seated fear in their subconscious thinks that someday they may be cut off from absolutely everyone and everything they know. Maybe trapped in some sort of Force void?? Their mind is at odds with them often because they have trouble blocking out other people's feelings so they can get overwhelmed, but they crave being around people.
Controlled chaos. They learn to errect pretty sturdy emotional walls in their mind, but sometimes they slip, even after they pass their knight trials. Imagine a glass dome with the hot tendrils of a star beating at it. Duster very intentionally has to keep their mind controlled and serene because of it. Luckily they are surrounded by plenty of friends and family to help.
Oof, you are making me really think now! XD
Duster sees themselves first as a clone because that is what they knew first, now also as a jedi and now an equal member of society. They were still so young when deployed that they didn't have much contact with anyone but the Kaminoans, trainers, and the occasional jedi. Now they are going on missions and seeing different worlds, so they feel more equal. The equality took the longest.
Others see Duster as a Jedi first, more often than not. The robes and lighsaber stand out and even some of the jedi wore armor so their attire is not that unusual. The clone part comes up less often, and most people are just confused until it's explained to them. Duster's batchmate, Rath, just sees them as the same person they've always been, just taller. XD
The other clones probably see Duster as 'one of the lucky ones' not because they can use the Force, but because they made it off of Kamino. (Made myself sad with that one)
@imrowanartist Thank you so much for asking about Duster! You are really making me think more about rounding out their character! <3
