Share 10 facts about one of your OCs! :)

Thanks for this ask, @arrthurpendragon! This list of facts is for Devnet Casey, the third member of the trio that includes Kari MacOrish and Enya Sun. Dev's face claim is Renee O'Connor/Gabrielle of Xena fame.

Dev is slightly younger than Kari and Enya at around 1497, but do three years really count for immortals?

If Dev were asked what her favorite era is in her long life, it would have to be the the Lost Generation period of the 1920s. She moved to Paris after World War I and lived there peacefully and happily amongst fellow writers and artists until the dawn of World War II.

During World War II, Dev rejoined Enya in London with the two none the wiser that Kari was in England as well. They only reconnected after Bucky Barnes and Steve Rogers' apparent deaths.

Dev had a thing for Howard Stark, and the two had a "spring fling" for a couple of years before Dev finally got a tad tired of Howard's wandering eye. They did stay friends and in touch until he met and married Maria. Dev always felt it would be hard for Howard to explain her presence to Maria, so she backed away gracefully.

While Kari has always had cats and dogs around her, Dev is more partial to dogs. Her favorite breed is the majestic Irish Wolfhound. She has had many over the centuries, and her current one is named Tyrone.

While Kari is from County Kildare, Dev is from County Galway in Ireland. She has a home in the city of Galway and has been known to give lectures on writing and history at National University of Ireland, Galway.

Being from Galway, Dev is also a lover of the sea. Over the centuries, when she is back home, Dev loves to go to the docks and local pubs to talk with the seamen about their travels.

While Dev is known for her romance novels and the tomes she has written about the adventures she has had with Kari and Enya, she is most proud of the Irish history books she has written for children. She is currently working on a series for children that encompasses facts about the people of other nations who now make Ireland their home.

During the 1960s, Dev jumped feet first into the music scene in London. While Kari and Enya both love to sing, Dev loves dancing, and she found herself many nights in discotheques dancing The Frug and The Freddie with all the Mods in the clubs.

Does Dev consider herself a domestic goddess? That would be a no. Yes, Dev can cook, and she does not have daily hired help to take care of her place, but she does not consider herself a pro at any of it. She thinks one of the greatest inventions in history is the microwave!

For the oc asks #1, 7, 10, 11, 14, 18, 21 annnnddd 25 for Enya Sun!! ^_^

I am so sorry this took so long to answer, @darknightfrombeyond! Thanks for the asks!

1:What is their full name? What does it mean?

Enya's full name is Enya Sun. The meaning of the name Enya in Irish is "fire" and is an Anglicized form of the name Eithne. Sun was the surname chosen by a fellow gamer when he made a character to be Kari's first husband. I created Enya for a specific story at the RPG board I am still part of back in the early 2000s, a time travel jaunt by the X-Men back to the days of Camelot. Enya is a warrior priestess of the Holy Isle of Avalon.

7:What color are their eyes?

Like her face claim Lucy Lawless, Enya's eyes are blue.

10:Can they cook?

Yes, Enya can cook, and she is actually very good at it. Her favorite things to cook are usually fairly simple because she does not like what she terms "overly fussy food." She is not a fan of heavy sauces or things that have to be set ablaze for show. She is also not the greatest baker on the planet.

11:Are they an early bird or a night owl?

Enya prefers to see the sun rise from her window and to be under the covers before midnight when she can. If she is anywhere near a beach and a stable is nearby, she loves to go for sunrise rides.

14:Are they a pessimist or an optimist?

Enya would more likely call herself a realist than either a pessimist or optimist, but of the two, pessimist would be the more common state of being for her. She is not a glass half full person at all.

18:Do they have any special skills/powers?

As a warrior priestess of the Holy Isle, Enya is versed in most forms of magic and was trained in methods to protect her sister priestesses. She was trained by Merlin and Vivianne (based around the old miniseries on TBS/TNT and not the BBC show), and she also trained with Arthur's knights like her brother Galen, the character created by my fellow gamer all those years ago.

21:What element would they be?

As her name implies, Enya would most definitely be fire.

25:How do they see themselves?

Enya would use the following words to describe herself: confident, prepared, intelligent

12 & E for whoever you want?

(From this list of prompts for OCs and their creators)

I’m back in my canon Warden’s head because I’m back in my longfic headspace (yay!), so I’m answering for Lyna Mahariel.

12. How do they deal with an itch found in a place they can’t quite reach?

If someone else is around, she asks them to get it. Doesn’t matter who, she doesn’t care. (Not going to be stupid about asking an enemy, but if it would intimidate them through the sheer lack of fucks then yes, she’ll ask them too.) If she’s alone, though, she’ll strip off enough layers and get a tool to reach it, or find the right sort of tree to rub up on. (Since some tree bark will remove your itch by scraping off your skin, then you’ve got a worse itch later as it’s healing. She found that one out as a young’un. Tamlen teased her mercilessly and Ashalle did a lot of tongue clicking over that.)

E. Are they someone you would get along with? Would they get along with you?

Yeah, for the most part anyway. She’s a lot more outgoing and driven than I am, so she’d exhaust me. She’d poke me about getting out more and I’d drag my feet. I’d likely have to visit her in a hospital a few times because of hiking or bike accidents or fights with a bigger person defending someone smaller, and I’d get to call her a dumbass while I sign her cast. We’d have to compromise with coffee or farmer’s market outings and a yearly camping trip. 

Thanks for the ask! <3
