Canvas, formal and road bonus points for multiple ocs

(From this ask meme; thank you so much for asking, Ren!)

canvas: Does your OC have any scars, piercings, tattoos, or other markings? Do they display or cover them up at all?

Brider has many traditional tattoos, but is modest about displaying them - often only those on her face and hands are visible. She is, I think, the least scarred of my cast (certainly of my main cast), with only a faint white scar on her stomach after the campaign on Corellia.

Jenûwtsâkyat has quite a few golden, delicately detailed piercings, fashioned with sharp angles, geometric designs, and claw-like curves. He shows many of them off (his facial piercings, in particular), but not all. He has some scarring that he covers with clothing, jewelry and, often, makeup.

Irati did have tattoos, but she has them removed as her confidence increases, instead wearing the same patterns with waterproof makeup when she is in public. She has a generous assortment of scars across her body, thanks to her minimal armor and ferocious, attention-drawing combat.

Aaliyah has traditional Mirialan tattoos on her face and hands, and no visible scars.

Hlengiwe has a burn scar on the side of his cheek, a cut through his forehead, and burn scars on the sides and palms of his hands - and, on the back of his hands, matching tattoos with Aaliyah, a sign of their marriage.

formal: What's your OC's formal look? Do they like dressing up? Do they have different looks for different occasions?

Brider loves dressing up - in fact, she is usually not caught dead not in formalwear! This typically means many layers of flowing, traditional Jedi robes in pale creams and silvers, often with some jewellery around her horns and hair, often her trademark Ashla pendant suspended between two of her horns.

Jenûwtsâkyat also loves dressing up. He has many different "looks" for different occasions, including "dour" robes for Dark Council meetings (they are dour only in comparison to his other clothing, having his trademark golden jewelry and bolts of scarlet-purple shimmersilk), ceremonial armor for appearing militaristic, and old-fashioned Kissai robes for directing closed cultural ceremonies.

Gerhild wears a suit or a dress uniform when she needs to. She's not overly keen on it.

road: What does your OC wear while traveling? Do they have high-quality equipment, or are they making do? What does their gear look like?

Irati wears her typical light armor when traveling, if any armor at all; her gear starts out as high-quality, but is often old, worn-out, and many times repaired by herself, Vette, and Quinn. She prefers it that way.

Gerhild has good, sturdy gear, nothing fancy. It's in plain, neutral colours, or sometimes splashed with Republic blue or Havoc blood orange. She's packing rations, weaponry, a medkit, comms, and more, all efficiently stored in the smallest amount of space possible.

Johqai has battered, scrounged gear, often Imperial military "surplus" or "requisition" from defeated foes.

Hlengiwe more or less just has the clothes on his back and what he can store in his pockets. They're made with love.

Mandated SWTOR Character Masterpost

Brider Surriss, Barsen’thor

Zabrak sage.  Exemplifies the concept of a beautiful cinnamon roll, too good for this world, too pure.  We’re talking about a “possible Ashla incarncation” level of goodness.  One year younger than her own Padawan.  Absolutely adores Syo Bakarn; they have a very solid father-daughter dynamic.  Completely defensive combat style consisting of shielding herself and allies from harm.

Miurani’sanewso’sis

Sanewso, a House Miurani merit adoptive, raised largely by the old Keeper after his father’s execution.  The last portion of his name is pronounced “senth-isk-senth,” not “sis,” because it’s theoretically “S.I.S.”  He does desk work for the SIS on Coruscant after an emergency extraction from his posting as “Legate” in the Empire on medical grounds.  Married to Vector Hyllus. 

Irati (Wrath)

Nonverbal Human.  Two hands, one for Vette and one for Malavai.

Atthilike

Big butch Zabrak sorcerer.  Ran away from Zash to live in the Unfinished Colossus with other self-freed slaves.  Eventually talked and fought her way into a place in the Sphere of Production and Logistics, where she works on abolition and audits other Sith, very violently, in the meantime. Rivalry with Qet.

Johqai

Tsis (”Sith Pureblood“) born without the Force, Johqai left behind his family name and became a bounty hunter.  Initially intent on serving the Empire in one of the few ways he could, his conscience soon gets the better of his loyalty, and he’s walking a dangerous line. Protective and supportive big brother to Mako.

Aaliyah

Mirialan smuggler, incurable do-gooder, and tired middle-aged mom friend.  Loves to hang out with Bowdaar.

Tsisajakqo Jenûwtsâkyat

At this point he counts as an OC.  It’s Darth Vowrawn.  He’s horrible, particularly in the all the ways he insists on being good.  Traditionalist Kissai Tsis (“Sith Pureblood”) and a guardian of Tsis cultural heritage.  Definitely not at all treasonous.  Ignore the giant Ozymandias reference in the Dromund Kaas jungles, and definitely all of its implications (thank you, Qet).

for the ask meme: footwear, change, and alternate for whatever ocs your heart desires <3

footwear: What does your OC wear on their feet?

Johqai has rocket boots! They're a bit beat-up, but mostly work.

change: Has your OC ever drastically changed their appearance? Significant haircuts, big tattoos, complete wardrobe swap, etc? Why? How do they feel about the change?

When Johqai was disowned by his family, he went from Tsis robes to rags in an instant, and his piercings were all ripped out. He later scrounged himself armour, then exchanged his first payout for gold, had new jewelry forged, and repierced himself in defiance.

alternate: What would your OC's alternate universe look be? If they're a fantasy character, what's their modern look? If they're sci-fi, what's their fantasy look? What AU would you want to see your OC in, and how would they dress themself? Bonus: Prompt an AU!

I think Johqai, in a modern AU, would be a skater with proper gear like elbow pads.

Johqai

he/him | Bounty Hunter. | Age at 10ATC: young adult.

Tsis, and born without Force-Sensitivity, Johqai left home at an early age to become a bounty hunter, after being thrown out of his family, his facial jewellery ripped out (despite the best efforts of his father to protect him). He has jewellry reforged, and repierces himself in defiance.

Johqai is chivalrous, honourable, and family-orientated. To begin with, he's terrified to do anything that could be seen as disloyal, but eventually sheds his fear in favour of following his instincts. He eventually adopts a little Tsis girl.

Species: Tsis ("Sith Pureblood")
