HI!! here's some OCs and an animation i made for college back in may! the gist is that onda (it/they) and gioia (she/her) are two aliens that crash landed on earth and work with olive (they/it) as thieves to steal treasures all around the universe!! i thought of a lot more for them but i'll be honest and say i'm a little embarrassed at how they turned out, though I did crank all this out in ~4 weeks so... [happy to say i got a perfect grade] . i might slightly redesign them ! i'll ramble about the characters under the cut. might be misremembering...
Gioia (meaning joy in italian) would be the protagonist :] she's from a planet with butterfly people and her mother is the monarch (funny joke. monarch butterfly). she feels inadequate in her mother's shadow, and has lots of siblings she feels a need to compete with. she's a little reckless- she ended up on earth because she snuck onto a cargo ship that led to another spaceship that hosted a party. ensue the animation
Onda (meaning wave in italian) is a shapeshifter. It can only shapeshift into something of the same mass that it has seen and studied before. Its species lives a very very long time and inhabits a planet full of megafauna. Usually, it looks something like a frog, but for the purposes of being on earth it takes the form of a human, albeit with more liberty due to its very relaxed and slightly hopeless demeanour. It was hired by gioia's mother, the monarch, to keep track of her and make sure she stays home, but it saw how much potential gioia had and decided to just make sure she's safe while on earth. surely gioia will not feel betrayed when the truth comes out that she's basically being babysat by someone her mother hired !
Olive... oh olive... olive is sardinian ^v^ this story takes place in sardinia! they have no close relationships and live out in a house in the middle of the countryside that they inherited from family. they like to collect old technology, and their dream is to create a sentient robot to befriend since "people suck". this is why they want to work with onda and gioia despite preferring their own self-isolation, the two of them can bring alien technology that can help create sentient life. [the robot will totes be another design] . on missions, they usually work remotely, controlling tech and providing directions
and thats the gist! at the time i was very inspired by lupin iii and trigun :] im kind of eh about it but its better to show what ive done than not
