Namely Good Coffee Great Coffee, Harvest Town and Postknight 2 OCs
Meet Bonbon! They are very silly. They love listening to what other people have to say and occasionally they’ll talk about themselves, their family in another city, their photography hobby etc.
She’s also really friendly and tactile and Will hug you if you don’t mind, and it will be… intense :3
(I don’t have an Ovenist character because I haven’t played gpgp a lot (gcgc neither but for long enough to create an oc). Yes it’s because it’s too difficult for me lol!)
Meet Deco! She’s very silly and chaotic and spends the least of her time actually farming. She prefers cave diving and fishing for treasures instead.
Her love interest is Sherry Allen cuz they both share love for shiny things you can buy stuff with + Deco was absolutely smitten the moment she met the gorgeous woman!
+ Deco has grown to hang out with Barl a lot, they adore him. They’ve always wanted a cute little brother and in HT, the dream came true <3
Meet Zacky! A simple boy who never expected to become a hero, but became anyway.
I’ve got a lot on him in my latest postknight phase… The rant with some more art will be under the cut if you’re interested! (Also idk, there are minor spoilers (?) past Regalle (7-25), just saying)
His name’s Zachary, but everyone knows him as Zacky or, for the first few day in a new place, “Aliya’s nephew”.
Aliya was a a famous postknight (think legendary postknight level), a reckless Pyrodash known for her crazy adventures, and well, she still is all that, it’s only that no one knows for sure where she is at the moment. Last time they checked she stayed home because of an injury, and then… she disappeared for an adventure she doesn’t want anyone to interrupt.
Zacky was brought up by his relatives (Aliya’s wife’s family) in Violetfair, where he developed love for nature and respect for the elderly.
He’s always wanted to be a gardener, but the fate’s decided differently. When Aliya asked him to help out in Maille on her sick day, he agreed, but she never returned, the day turned into a week and so on… Everyone seemed to need Zacky, and his sense of duty (= fear of letting people down) kept him around until he became a postknight himself, thus beginning the game story.
No matter how much he’s accomplished as a postknight, he still thinks of himself as a simple countryside lad, or a trainee at best, or an extension of his aunt’s career, hence the permanent blush of imposter syndrome and his complete inability to take praise.
+ semicanon that he never ranked up to rank S cuz he believed he wasn’t worthy (maybe i’ll change that if i rank up myself lol, this exam is pure evil)
But apart from that, he’s a good boy, basically everyone agrees on that (for an unknown reason, he’s absolutely irresistible for women that are some kind of bosses, think Cassandra, Magnolia… Queen Vega? Dur’gali? They find him adorable and sometimes pet on the head). He finds joy in selflessly helping people and giving gifts, so postknight is kind of a perfect job for him, which is one of the reasons he ultimately stayed.
He was reluctant to travel at first, but as he grew braver he started enjoying being out in the nature of other places, even though nothing beats Violetfair for him. And yep he and Chris are childhood friends!
His division is Neverwhisk because he vibes with them.
💨 The things on his shoes are windwings! Made with platinum and wind essence, they give him a speed & agility boost in fight (I should mention here that his (and mine) fighting style is “coward with daggers and 100 lvl agility vs 50 lvl strength”). They were made for Aliya by Gwynelle as they were besties back in the day! Aliya was often recognized by them, so imagine everyone’s reaction when she handed them to her nephew and disappeared.
And imagine Gwynelle’s reaction when she finally meets “the boy Aliya was talking about!” >:3 She basically adopts him and helps him through the struggle of Quivtol.
During Sagacia plot, Zacky would spend all his free time in the village helping Gwynelle around the smithy and listening to the stories about her youth. In Regalle, he missed her care and was sooo happy to see her when she and Veremund arrived <3
As for Regalle, here happens the most intriguing part… Zacky’s love interest is Leif, Regalle innkeeper.
Ok hear me out. I did hope Leif would be romanceable, the way he appeared in the story kind of looked like that. And he’s also sooo cute 😔 So be it, plus I’m not super attached to the existing LIs, Zacky is probably just good friends with all of them.
Ok so!! The story goes!! Captain Reinhilde beat Zacky’s ass, I mean yes he defeated her and listened to all the dialogue afterwards, but then he collapsed on the ground unconscious. And you wouldn’t believe it, he had to stay in the inn for a week with Leif looking after him <3
They are both young, inexperienced boys who have to choose between what they think is right and the “common good”, and they bond over that among other things. I hope Leif becomes less depressed as he spends time with Zacky, I mean wth is his greeting even after completing the story? “Is this the life that we have to live?” (along those lines) and a sad face? Bro I thought we helped figure everything out, why are you still having the existential crisis 😭 Not on Zacky’s watch, wth.
Remember that one delivery quest where Gwynelle sends Leif a pendant?
⬆️ This one? I absolutely love it because it’s two my fav characters having the exact interaction I dreamt of, it’s like this one quest was made for me specifically!
But apart from that…
I hc that aegles exchange pendants as humans do with wedding rings and that as a parent/custodian you have a say in this ritual (c’mon, I can vividly imagine Veremund asking us if we would like to take his daughter’s hand), so the meaning of this quest could be Gwynelle making it so Zacky proposes to Leif.
And she was right to do so, because otherwise their self-conscious asses would have never confessed.
Moving on to one more hc (that is a topic for another rant), imo Postknights shouldn’t have had a branch in Quivtol, instead Quivtol should have set up their own organization for militarized deliveries. Post-rangers? Something like that. I hc that this is what happened and that Leif became one of them and he and Zacky would occasionally meet on their duty and maybe patrol in Sagacia together and stuff <3
(Ignore the creatures I poorly drew from memory)
But don’t ignore Leif’s hair not only looking like a bird nest, but actually being one.
OK I believe that’s all. Could’ve make it its own post but meh, I want all my madman rambles in one place, just wait until my next ht/gcgc face and watch this post triple in size with rants and doodles about Deco and Bonbon!
Dares part 3! This one is from @keilaruru (If you want to suggest one, you can comment here, or leave an ask :D)
Sorry, looks like you'll have to pay up XD
I hope you don't mind the more...lighthearted approach 😅😭 idk... I haven't been too motivated to do any angst... Sorry 😅😅😅
I really wonder what other people's Farmer OCs thought about this guy.
Florena thought he's the Harvest Town's Dr Keh but he's actually a bit... endearing. I kinda saw them as being frenemies. They would help out each other but at the same time, would probably plummel each other at first sight.
