Helloooo, I have NO clue what to put for this but I wanted some kind of intro thing so I'm ad-libbing this shit just for you! ◇
◇ MY NAME is Squire but typically online I go by SereneParadox. It's a username I came up with years ago that has stuck with me for a long time that I use for less professional accounts :)
◇ MY PRONOUNS are he/him. They/them is fine if you don't exactly know, but now you do. No excuses, it's in bold purple letters.
Most of my free time is eaten up drawing or writing for a number of OCs who you'll likely get to meet across my page! I enjoy drawing hair and faces, and anatomy is still a struggle for me, especially hands and legs. I also love to scrapbook, so you may see some of that as well :) Rarely if ever will I post my writing here, but if I can provide something spoiler-free that isnt subject to major changes, I might try it.
◇ COMMISSIONS are not currently open! I have never taken commissions before and would like to improve on my anatomy skills before I take requests. I want to provide any buyers with a final result I am confident and satisfied with before I can comfortably accept payment ♡
◇ I've also never done ART TRADES, however I'm open to trying them as long as no payment one way or another is involved! ♡
◇ DNIs are simple: NO HOMOPHOBES/TRANSPHOBES of any kind, NO AI USERS/SUPPORTERS, no fuckin BULLY-ERS. Let people be who they are and like what they like and do what they do. If it isn't hurting anyone else but you, you're the problem. ♡
More details about me and what I do below! ◇
.✦ ݁˖. WHAT DO I WRITE FOR? .✦ ݁˖
Not some deep philosophical question about the "why"s of life. What fandoms do I write for is what you should be asking. Reject broader philosophy, embrace fanfiction.
(How MUCH I write for each of these fluctuates because I only write what and when I'm motivated to. What I'm fixated on comes and goes, therefore so too does what I end up writing. All this to say that this list isn't in any particular order of what has been most or least written.)
◇ ORIGINS: Creatures of Nalthis — A book series created by the very talented @MaggotMacabre about a group of teenagers in an expansive fantastical world, their individual stories suddenly intertwined when they learn that each one of them are featured in an ancient prophecy referring to them as the Chosen: saviors of their world from destructive Gods grown impatient.
(ORIGINS has an official Tumblr page! Follow @thecreaturesofnalthis for a bunch of early looks into the world of Nalthis such as exposition into various characters, concepts, and worldbuilding, as well as some incredible artwork for the series!)
◇ Kotai Moshonora, Rising — Soon to be given a more original title (when I think of one). Follows the story of Kotai Moshonora, a boy who becomes the catalyst for the complete reconstruction of hero society as a whole when he becomes a prime example that even those unanimously adored can manipulate society's trust and bury much darker secrets. (MHA/BNHA OC fic)
◇ DANGANRONPA V3 Fanfiction — What it says on the tin. V3 is my favorite of the Danganronpa games, and I write for either SaiOumota (Shuichi Saihara, Kokichi Ouma, Kaito Momota) all together in a polyamorous ship, or variations of the three, such as SaiOuma, SaiMota, or Oumota. (I may share my fanfic account after I can provide some evidence that my writing has drastically improved since then.)
.✦ ݁˖. MY CHARACTERS .✦ ݁˖
I didn't used to have many OCs. Just the one, really. And then my partner came along and offered that I could create an OC for his book. And then we got very invested in that OC. And then he asked me to make another. One became two. Two became five. I have quite a few OCs now, and none of them are normal.
Without giving away too much crucial lore, these are the general summaries of my OCs, and hopefully soon I can create thumbnail art of each of them to include here.
◇ Kotai Moshonora (MHA/BNHA) — A very meek and sheltered boy who slowly comes into his own after sneakily applying himself to the prestigious hero training academy U.A. High and somehow getting accepted! Kotai is a very curious and bright character who gets his joy out of helping others and envies for the same in return. His quirk aloows him to produce and telekinetically control flat crytals from his palms, making him a naturally formidable long-range opponent. He's quite dense and easily startled, but his compassion and gentle heart are unwavering ♡
6'1 and born on July 27th, Kotai has a severe sweet tooth and enjoys drawing, spending time with his friends, and walking outdoors — but the surprising way straight to his heart?

Voice Claim: Hunter (The Owl House)
◇ Alonzo Hollowmoore (ORIGINS) — Feared across nations for his erratic and impulsive behaviors and the joy he takes in cold-blooded murder, this Arachnid boy was picked up off the streets at the young age of 13 by a terrorist group called The Kin, encouraging his already damaged and deranged mental state. Riddled with unsettling twitches and constantly muttering to seemingly nobody, Alonzo's instability is a consistent source of unease to the general public.
5'3 and born on March 14th, Alonzo takes amusement in pestering and upsetting his peers as often as he can, though he has little to no patience when the shoe is on the other foot. He's extremely swift and doesn't hesitate to pull the trigger on one of his many beloved firearms, making him one of The Kin's most powerful forces.
Voice Claim: Kokichi Ouma (Danganronpa V3)
◇ Ian Rune (ORIGINS) — Born next in line to the royal throne of the End Kingdom, Ian had long since been dissatisfied with his circumstances. Chaotic fits of anger overtook him at an early age, leaving him estranged from his family and the people of his kingdom as a whole. Eventually, curious Ian decided he didn't want to put up with the isolation any longer. And why should he have to when a portal to the little-explored outside world of Nalthis was just within arm's reach?
7'4 and born on December 9th, Ian is an explorer at heart. From stories to food to traditions, Ian loves to experience every culture possible. He is incredibly stubborn, especially protective of those he loves.
Voice Claim: Salesperson ENA (ENA: Dream BBQ)
◇ Caspian Rafferty (ORIGINS) — Preferring to go by his last name as opposed to inheriting the name Caspian from his father, Rafferty is a Siren from the infamously cannibalistic Siren Islands. The sudden death of his best friend left the already sarcastic and blunt Rafferty in a deep, long-lasting state of isolation and depression. He has little to no tolerance for other people and spends most of his time in solitude.
5'8 and born on March 22nd, Rafferty purposefully estranges himself from those around him out of fear of experiencing again the same grief that destroyed his life to return, opting to socialize only with local fish... Or at least that was the case.
Voice Claim: Till (Alien Stage)
◇ Mavros Blythe (ORIGINS) — A generous offer from a wealthy family looking to hire took Mavros from the life of a poor, homeless boy into a life of luxury and privilege. His innately polite and gentle nature made him the perfect choice for looking after the family's newborn, and despite various struggles that come with the job, Mavros got his joy in raising and supporting that wealthy family's child. That is, until a terrible accident took his life and left his unfulfilled soul a wandering ghost for centuries to come.
5'9 and born on November 1st, Mavros enjoys tea, idle chatting, and walks through nature. His forced isolation caused him to grow a bit socially inept, although his gentle kindness never eroded.
Voice Claim: Hazel (Watership Down)
◇ Tiago Rune (ORIGINS) — Born in the ancient and all-powerful End kingdom, commoner Tiago's entire life was put off-balance when the heavy Enderian-Shulk segregation of the time prevented him and the love of his life (a shulk named Esmeray) from being together. An increase on restrictions to interracial contact pushed Tiago to his breaking point, and in search of freedom with his love, Tiago led the End Kingdom's very first revolution against their tyrant, the great Ender Dragoness.
6'5 and born on June 24th, Tiago's strong sense of justice and rigid moral compass make him a valiant defender not only against tyranny, but a strong human rights advocate overall. Although he is extremely socially challenged and often appears cold and uninterested, Esmeray is quick to reassure people that a soft heart lies just underneath the surface.
Voice Claim: Wildberry Cookie (Cookie Run Kingdom)
◇ B̷̛͍͓͓̜͗̈́̎̆a̷̢̗̰͕̪͇̞̒̽́͒͠͠ś̴̥̋͋͆͜î̵̡̪̼̍͐l̶̛͇͉͙̫͈̩̹̟͂̈͋͘ Null the Void (ORIGINS) — One of several Greatest Beings divinely ruling over the world of Nalthis. Null found itself deemed the God of Chaos and Apathy after waking up in the afterlife with no memory of how it got there. It can't recall its previous name or life whatsoever — instead all it harbors from its past are the deep yet overwhelming senses of rage and bitterness. These residual griefs gave way to Null's extremely apathetic nature and earned it its place as a Greatest Being.
Its shapeshifting abilities allow for varying height, and its date of birth is unknown. Null opts not to fraternize with its fellow deities unless it's for the sake of furthering its agenda of incessant chaos and anarchy.

Voice Claim: Shadow Milk Cookie (Cookie Run Kingdom)
◇ Caius McCain (Mouthwashing) — Caius is the eldest of 5 siblings, all born to a very work-oriented couple who spent much of their time on business trips, leaving Caius juggling a younger sister, a twin sister and brother, and a baby sister from a young age. Caius was embedded with a deeply rooted sense of responsibility and independence, and after he moved out a job opportunity opened up for crew members on a vessel called the Tulpar transporting high-value goods through space, and with nothing left to lose, Caius took the job.
5'7 and born on December 21st, Caius is naturally laid-back, though he relies heavily on routine. He's kindhearted and prefers to keep moreso to himself, except in the case of his cat back home, a support cat for his OCD named Muffin who he spoils endlessly.

.✦ ݁˖. THE END! .✦ ݁˖
Thats all I've got for now! Until I can think of any more cool shit to add to this post, there's my general gist :) If you've got any questions or comments for me my ask box is open as well as my DMs (and my email [email protected] for any art related questions)! Have a good day or night wherever you are and thank you for reading all this cool stuff I spewed. <3 What even ever the fuck <3

Combined these two with Null my best friend Null <3

[ID: A digital drawing of Null, a white tiefling with curly blue hair who wears grey sci-fi clothing. She is show in a seven-panel comic without defined borders, each panel captioned with a glowing blue word or phrase. Gun shows Null’s hand holding a blue blade. Hands shows Null’s hands, each with a cybernetic chip in it. Clues shows the back of Null’s head, with a similar chip at her neck. Skin shows Null grimacing, silvery blood on her face. Don’t shows Null in motion, her arm holding another blue blade. Forget shows Null’s closed eyes. The last panel shows Null curled up in a ball, with the caption Don’t let them in over it. All of the text is messy and somewhat manic. The images are surrounded by fuzzy TV static. The background is black, with faint and repeated text saying gun hands clues skin on it. The artist’s signature, capripian, is visible in the corner. End ID]
Did I make another significant figures song my personality? Perhaps. Null my beloved Null my behaunted Null my beeldritch.
[ID: A digital drawing showing Null from the neck up on a grey background. Null is a thin white tiefling with dark blue curly hair that goes down to her shoulders. She is smiling confidently. Null has two straight horns, upon one of which are two rings. The first is a silver ring with a pentagonal blue gemstone set into it, and the second is a plain black ring in the style of an asexual pride ring. Next to her is a small ace flag with an exclamation point next to it. End ID]
[ID: A digital drawing of a thin blue tiefling. He has dark blue short curly hair, tall vertical horns, silvery eyes, and a tail with a curly-haired tip. He is holding a cigarette in one hand, and the other is on his hip. He is wearing a short teal cloak over a button-down shirt, black pants, and tall teal boots. He has a ring on his left horn with a large blue gemstone, and another similar gemstone in his belt buckle. His cloak is fastened with a large pin, which has a design of a bright blue triangle above two teal semicircles on it. He is looking to his left with a pensive expression.
ID continued: Next to the tiefling is a simplistic, monochromatic exchange between two heads; the first is a tiefling woman who looks similar to the subject of the drawing, who is angrily exclaiming, “Why is he cis!” The other is the artist, a person with an undercut and glasses, who is sadly saying, “It’s the repression innit. Sorry queen.” They are in slightly lighter blue against a grey-blue background. End ID]
Alternate universe version of Null, in which she wasn’t cast out by her family. Ultimately far worse a circumstance, really.
