hey all! Here's the list I came up with for my Granblue OCtober - inspired by @yuyuyumefairy from last year and my own love for inktober, I wanted an event for those of us with OCs and wanted to show them off!
There's daily prompts and weekly prompts - I encourage you to TAKE THIS AT YOUR OWN PACE!! You can start before October and continue even after it! (I would recommend doing your first post on the 1st of October if you start before) and never feel pressured to do every single day if you can't.
I tried to make the prompts both relate to Granblue and also have a more general theme. You can combine words, use one word - doesn't matter! and ANY type of creativity is welcomed, not just art!
Tag your posts with #gbfOC2024 and I'll try to reblog as much as I can!
GBFOCtober 2024 is here! And I lost my mind a little, but in a way that still keeps things relaxing. ^^; I considered doing one of the later elements first, but then the idea of Cammy's hypothetical "starter" element meaning she gets to see Summer Belial more often was too good to resist. XD Also I assume picrews wouldn't count for images, so I'll go with a description instead.
Day 1: Fall/Fire Element
*GBF summoning fanfare*
You got the Port Breeze Library Card!
*Glowing sound effects and flash while Camomile appears. A pink-haired, Draph of indeterminate adult age, she's in her librarian attire: a plaid suit jacket over a white blouse, with a black pencil skirt and dark brown tights the only things to suggest why this prim and proper young woman might catch Belial's eye. Behind her glasses, her lilac eyes are serious but warm.*
"Ahem. Hello, this i-is Camomile, may I help you? ...You're a-afraid to ask? Please don't be! *sigh* ...Belial is behind me, isn't he."
Camomile joined you!
Camomile's Journal Entry
Rarity: R
Max HP: 1200
Max Attack: 6260
Type: Draph
Gender: Female
Specialty: Staff/Melee
Style: Balanced
Voice Actor: Yui Horie
Description:
"One of many librarians of the Port Breeze Library, she managed to catch Belial's lustful eye. Her stutter has been an unwelcome social companion since her early days. Perhaps the edge of the Skies will hold some clue to overcoming this obstacle? Or is she merely dancing in the Primarch of Cunning's palm?
Uncap art (description): Camomile blushing and scolding Belial in front of a sunlit bookcase, while Belial laughs behind his hand. Despite her outward appearance, she's leaning into his space as if it's only natural. And hiding a book behind her back, as if it's something she yearns to give to him but can't yet.
Age: 25
Height: 155cm (5'0)
Type: Human
Hobbies: Taking detours, learning about folklore.
Likes: Wandering around, hitting random objects, knights.
Dislikes: Thinking before acting, scary stories, soup.
A majorly clumsy errand boy from Feendrache that had their hands magically sealed with giant safety mittens. They tend to go back and forth from neighbouring nations delivering packages, getting lost almost every time they set out.
Despite the mittens being put on them as a learning lesson for their carelessness, they enjoy whacking into things with it. Becoming a knight is almost an impossible dream for this person...
※ Currently lost in the woods nearby Dalmore during the events of The Lion Stirs.
-------------------------------------------------
Some creative liberties to my persona for Granblue's OCtober! Instead of a squid with 4 tentacles behind my head, it's now a human with 4 unevenly placed short braids.
Posting this mockup character style for week 1, will try posting more week 2 onwards!!
woo! gbf october got here quicker than i expected /sobs
irl's been busy for me but i managed to sketch cain as a dark primal for week 1's prompt (favorite element)
I think dark fits him too, he leans neutral evil on a lot of choices and honestly, he would break hearts for fun asdkfjalsd (primal of heartbreaks i guess LOL)
he's the probably-somewhat-redeemable antihero i forget to talk about LFSKDFJD
Day 2 of GBFOCtober! I wound up winging it a bit. XD
Day 2: Secrets
AKA Cammy cameo at the GBFest Live 3D Concert because why not! (Guest starring Belial of course.)
Emcee: Okay, next up is--hmm?
*Muffled moe Cammy noises as she pokes her head between the curtains. After some applause she hurriedly hides again*
Emcee: HMM?? Camomile-san, how did you get here?
Cammy, still behind the curtains: Ssh, ssh! Please, we have to be quiet! Belial, doesn't know I-I'm here!
Emcee: Really? That's surprising. In that case, you're here because...?
Cammy: Um, to...support him...but you have to, keep it secret!
Emcee: *nod nod* I see, we'll keep quiet about it. Right, everyone?
Audience: *cheers*
Cammy: Th-Thank you so much!
Emcee: ...Actually, this is worrying. If you're here supporting Belial, then he's here somewhere, isn't he?
Cammy: Yes. He said I-I didn't have to come, but. Um...I found Jimbocho [Tokyo's book district], a-a-and got lost. A little.
Emcee: Excellent, I'm glad you--wait no no no no, that means Belial's on the hunt for you, isn't he?! Quick, you better come out so he knows you're here!
Cammy: *squeaks* I-I-I'm sorry, but--hmm? Ah, Ms. Vikala...a-are you sure? Thank you, I-I'll take care of them. ...Your catchphrase? Oh, right!
*The curtains are slowly being pulled aside as Cammy chants, revealing her wearing her work clothes and Vikala's clashing rat-eared headband. Vikala gives her a thumbs-up before retreating*
Cammy: "L-Lappy"--er, no--"Lu-cky! Coo-kie! Cammy!" *She does double peace signs before covering her face in embarassment*
Audience: *laughter and cheers*
Cammy, slowly dropping her hands before bowing profusely: I think, I'll be better this way--
*The lights dim again, followed by a familiar sound of one person slow-clapping that echoes throughout the venue*
Cammy: ...Um, th-thank you? Could, could you please turn the lights back on?
Belial: Mmm~. *pauses while the audience explodes into applause, they know that voice anywhere and so does Cammy* I don't know if I want anyone else to see you looking this cute, Cammy. It's a troubling thought.
Cammy: *confused babbling*
Emcee: Belial, you...!
Belial: But I can't let you fall off the stage, can I? Here we go~.
*The lights turn back on, revealing Belial teleported Cammy to whatever dimension Belial's Room is in, broadcasted on the overhead screens.*
Belial: It's time for Cammy's plushie review, surprise~
Never thought I could ever be worthy of forgiveness...
OC featured: Medea
(First time drawing her too. She's just this weird little chimera with much love for scaly creatures and making felt plushies. Siegfried is also her dad now, and she adopted him--don't ask how that works)
