Drawing an oc for every letter of the alphabet, part 1

Part 2

[pine-niidles]

I'd love to hear about OCs 2, 14, and 27!

That's Malte (2), Eclipse (14), and Nebula (27) 💗🖤💜

Malte is I think my newest oc? It's hard to keep track lately. I made him for a dnd based rp my friend is running (though I've been ghosting them the last few months aaaa. I need to find an rp group that's active in a non-us timezone)

He's a dungeon researcher in theory but he's spent the last century or two essentially being a secretary for a local guild. He's the kind of person who needs everything to be organized and set up just right before starting and he's an elf with a bad sense of time so he keeps getting sidetracked from the things he wants to do by the things he feels he needs to do... he was trying to change that habit with this newly discovered dungeon the rp is taking place at but unfortunately for him I ended up not being able to be active for a while. I'm thinking about what reason he has for leaving his dream project for two months but whatever it is I'll find a way to work it into his character arc when my wrists feel better and I can be active again. :>

In my wip folder for Malte I have this chibi and emote I'll finish one day

Eclipse I feel like I've talked a bit about on this account recently? So I won't go too deep into her introduction.

Lately I've been really into characters trapped in situations they have no control over and how they learn to live with and work around said situation.

Eclispe is trapped in a loop of multiple lifetimes that all end the same way - her having to make a choice between saving the world she's grown to love by killing the goddess she used to love or taking the goddess's deal and letting the world crumble away around her to pave the way for a new one. She kills the goddess every time and lives out the rest of her life, only for the cycle to start again in the next one as the goddess's death is always only temporary and as long as she lives she will not let Eclipse die permanently either.

I have a lot of Eclipse in my wip folder but the one I'm most excited about is this comic I want to draw for her sometime this year

Nebula I talked about in the last ask and I don't have any wips I can share of them... so I'll drop another piece of lore:

Nebula frequents the same arcade as Carina and the two of them meet in their civilian identities without realizing who other person is.

Thanks so much for asking! 💖💗💞And that goes to everyone who did send in an ask - it was a lot of fun to ramble about my ocs, thank you for indulging me

15, 22, 27, and 32 (or any of these four you'd most like to talk about, if you would prefer only one per ask!)

Waa that's a handful! I'll happily talk about all of them but I'll try and be quick about it... lets see 22 (Eiji) and 27 (Nebula) are in the same setting so I'll talk about them last.

First off, 15 (Ursula) and 32 (Myth)

Ursula is one of my current main focus points, as well as her wife Priscilla who I talked about before and and a bunch of other characters in their setting I haven't decided on designs for yet. Ursula's story is about harming people you care about on a path of doing good (with mixed intentions). She led a revolution to usurp Priscilla's family to get revenge for her own family that was killed in [details still being ironed out but - magic experiments run by the royal family]. But even though she objectively still thinks those actions were the right thing to do she's not really found the catharsis revenge was supposed to bring her and now that it's over she's noticing a lot more the harm she's cause in the process (to Priscilla who she cared about among other people).

It's a messy situation and currently a very unhealthy relationship for the both of them but there's potential there for things to get better.

Myth is a witch from my steampunk(ish) setting. Magic exists in that setting but it's uncommon and Myth is one of the rare humans who can use it. Her specialty is enchanting items and doorways, but she doesn't actually do much magic. She works as an information broker (Myth is her alias for this, her full name is Elizabeth). Her main hobby is collecting mostly fake cursed objects and magic trinkets and seeking out conspiracy theories people make about witches and magic.

From my wip folder I have a ref sheet I started for her and a thumbnail of her and her wife

Last but not least! Nebula and Eiji ✨

They're both from my magical girl story, and both start off as mysterious characters Carina can't get a read on.

Nebula starts showing up sometime after Carina becomes a magical girl, and it's unclear what their intentions are. They get in Carina's way, capturing enemies in her place or sometimes laying traps for Carina to get caught in. They refuse to tell Carina what their deal is and I also won't spoil their intentions yet other than to say they're Carina's eventual love interest.

Eiji transfers to Carina's school not long after she becomes a magical girl and joins the astronomy club Carina is in despite seemingly not having much of an interest in astronomy. A few other things add up to make Carina suspicious of him being on to her magical girl secret identity but it turns out he just has a crush on the club's secretary and joined to get a chance to hang out with him. He and Carina end up becoming good friends after the misunderstanding is resolved.

\o/ that's all of them! thanks for sending in an ask 🌟
