#light bulb asks

[druzydabbles]

Hey lovelies! I feel like talking about my original characters, so drop a 💡 [or “light bulb”] with a character name into my ask box and I’ll give a fun fact about them!

[druzydabbles]

💡 Celestine!

[Send a ‘💡’ for an oc fact!]

Celestine has never once killed someone in her life... that she can remember.

one 💡 for sindre, a second 💡 for io, and another 💡 for xuan?

Sindre loves the night time and stargazing, but whenever he tries to stay on deck after sunset, he always manages to attract a swarm of bugs. Moths in particular. Some of the Compass’ crew theorizes it’s because his white hair sometimes shines under the moonlight.

Io hates looking people in the eyes and will instead distract herself with fidgeting with either her gloves or a random object while speaking to someone. If eye contact is absolutely necessary, she’ll focus on someone’s mouth, instead of their eyes. It’s close enough that most people don’t notice the difference.

Xuân is intersex! Though it’s not brought up exactly in canon (since they don’t exactly have karyotyping in the 1700s), she has xxy or Klinefelter syndrome. This resulted in her being way heckin’ taller than both of her parents, having a notable difficulty with fine motor skills like writing, and a few other traits. She’s not too bothered by it, though.

The best way to calm Celestine down is to wrap her in something soft. She also purrs when particularly happy. What I’m saying? Celestine as a purrito is very much so canon.

Runi has bioluminescent lines of dots that curve over his face and arms--but they only show up when he uses his magic (and it’s dark).

[druzydabbles]

💡 I have a desperate need to know more about Caelin

[Send a ‘💡’ for an oc fact!]

Caelin is Best Child!

Caelin serves as the important source of a lot of information, rumors and legends especially, because of all the stories she has heard and told herself! Many sailors’ legends in OSS end up being at least partially true, and her background in these is very helpful to the crew!

💡 for Celestine!

[Send a ‘💡’ for an oc fact!]

When Celestine gets particularly riled up, to the point of using magic, her hair starts to poof up and spark and legitimately turn into a magic storm cloud.

From one storyteller with a tiny blunt menace of a captain to another, I gotta send a lightbulb for Io. :)

[Send a ‘💡’ for an oc fact!]

HEY YOU NEED TO TELL ME ABOUT YOUR TINY BLUNT MENACE OF A CAPTAIN I ALREADY LOVE THEM.

Io is capable of Epic Parkour but she doesn’t ever do it in front of her crew because! Her gloves would get dirty! And that would be the Absolute Worst!
