OC meme: 1, 2, 12, 19, 20, 49, 50 (If you want to do this many)
...the first I remember was... a... group of characters that I made for a fantasy story looooooooong ago, but I have forgotten their names.The first noteworthy after that was Akhila
2. Do you have a personal favourite among your OCs?
I'm not sure if that's necessarily true for MYSELF or if it just seems like it because he was so popular with OTHER people but it might or might not have been Aurelio, at least for some time.He definitely is always one of my all-time-favourites.
12. Name an OC that isn't yours but who you like a lot
There’s so many! like to know more about other people’s original characters, chances are if I like one of their characters, I like the rest too, but I don’t have a single favourite.
19. Introduce an OC that means a lot to you (and explain why)
Ayichariel, Chari for short. She's one of my favs not "just because" but she also developed a lot since her creation. She was created in a "gotta create ALL the DSA character classes!" rush and then probably only stuck with me because she was pretty and nice to draw, since she didn't get the chance to appear in RP for a LONG time.While waiting for that time (which never really came other than an introduction before the RP crumbled), I threw all the limiting and somewhat clichéd offensive RPG-world background from the original system out of the window and outfitted her with a new background story that actually made sense, a past, a culture to go with it and some future scenarios. She's probably the character whose life progression I am the most clear about, and that without her never being a very "active" character. So, in the end there's a lot more to her than being the pretty dancer, even if nobody really knows about that.
20. Do any of your OCs sing? If they sing, care to share more details (headcanon voice, what kind of songs they like etc)?
Aurelio likes to sing (well he is a bard) and while I have a pretty clear idea of what his voice sounds like, I can never describe or compare it. I've been trying for over 10 years now.Legend has it that he is able to whistle metal tunes.
49. Which one of your OCs would most likely enjoy memes
50. Give me the good ol' OC talk here. Talk about anything you want
Most people seem to think Aurelio has a shiny glossy wavy head of hair but it's really a mess. It gets tangled easily and he just cuts out the knots....and then burns the knots because he’s superstitious as fuck and is afraid someone’s gonna do some druid voodoo shit with it
Rufus' hair on the other hand is super silky and soft and feels like a rabbit's fur, but nobody'd expect that because unlike Aurelio he's not a bishonen but very obviously a dirty little street rat.
Tumblr would have a field day with Jerry's gender identity I guess.
Charlie's home is filled with both computer equipment AND lots of plants, she keeps a chameleon that was given to her and is a vegan, which doesn't seem to be all that special, until you realize she lives in a cyberpunk world where everything is grey and gloomy except for synthetic neon lights. Her lifestyle would be described "lol hippie" by some people but in her world it's really unusual and actually pretty fucking expensive.
I realized the gender distribution among my characters is pretty much exactly 50:50 among females and males, with an added few ??? ones
Craig is a character I hardly ever get to mention but he keeps popping up in my head. He’s Aurelio’s older (foster) brother, very different from him and I get the urge to draw him again. He’s tall, dark, gruff, serious and actually a merchant (and good at it), good at doing detailed and “boring” work like accounting and housework (which is good because Aurelio is an airheaded mess and will just forget about housework and wear his brothers way-too-big-for-him clothes when he’s home and out of clean clothes) and he takes breaks from it by conjuring up the most ridiculously wondrous cakes. (well, being a merchant he has access to all kinds of exotic ingredients, but he’s a an artist when it comes to cakes).
