what if any of your ocs met a alternative version of themselves what would they do and how do they react?
Actually, this is a HUGE part of the story of my Sci-fi Worldsetting involving the character Insector! He struggles a lot with his identity of who he was in the past who is a radically different person than he is now!
Both characters above are Insector. Left is his past self. Right is him now... can't go into too much detail, but know the struggle of identity between past and present self is big point, so why I chose Insector to answer this ask = w =
could you give some information about your favourite(s) oc? and why?
Anon, I could rant for days about my OCs as I love them all 83 But the one that is standing out the most in my head is Insetor c:
Insector being the nickname the human crew gave as they can't pronounce his actual name with their human voice boxes! Putting more under the read more!
Insector is a big favorite as he has a complex character given he is very much from a very different culture living about a bunch of humans who don't trust him. His people have a reputation as being rather violent and yes he IS but it leans more to being ruthless and direct.
Not to mention his character explores a lot about self identity, what makes a person themselves, memory loss, family and found family, friendship...just a lot packed into this character that I get to explore in the story and makes me excited to write them!
As for details, for now I'll give you the general knowledge ones to avoid too many spoilers! He is a part of the Invectiva people and has severe memory loss to the point he does not remember his name. The nickname "Insector" is a slang name for his species. Humans literally nicknamed him like nicknaming a dog as dog.
Keeps to himself and is close friends with Joe Sapora whom he will murder for. Friends with Skelly whom knows the truth of things. In general the human crew avoids him as Invectiva are a hostile alien species and known for their aggression despite fact Insector is rather docile (mostly due to the horrific head injury).
In his former life/pre-head injury life, he was a controller prince of the Invectiva empire, although how high on the nobility rank he was is not known to the crew. Only Skelly knows the exact details as it was Skelly who brought Insector onto the crew. Lots of plot of the why there!
JUST EXCITED TO EXPLORE THIS CHARACTER SO MUCH!! Also love drawing the aesthetics of his face/outfits and space suit <3
