could you do poison, compass, and UFO for the 4 mains? :o thanks!!
Poison:vices/bad habits? what are they? how do they affect your OC? -
This is a tough one. My characters have flaws, but mostly in their personality, not in the things they like/do. It’s more like “this one is stubborn and has a mean streak” “this one is selfish and has a bad temper” etc. Those aren’t really bad habits. But I’ll see what I can come up with.
Xennariel - Not sure if these count as bad habits, but Xen bites her tail when she’s nervous or stressed and there are scars on the end of her tail where her fangs have pierced and scraped the skin. She also puts tons of sugar in her sweets. So like, lots of extra sugar in ice cream, milk shakes, yogurt, etc. She loves sweets. These don’t really affect her in any way, though. She’s also easily annoyed and speaks her mind.
Loki - Challenges authority, does what he wants, deliberately disobeys orders.
Amy - She gets jealous easily, which is bad since she tends to flock to cute guys and go out with them simply based on looks and then gets her heart broken when she realizes the guy isn’t as nice as he looks.
Zak - Bites his nails, procrastinates
Yeah, none of those are really bad habits as much as personality traits…
Compass: who’s the moral compass? in general: what are your OCs’ morality like? do they have high morals, or not? are their morals self imposed, or do they base their morals on religion/family/influence of others? -
Xennariel - I feel like Xen is chaotic neutral. She believes sacrifices need to be made sometimes and violence is sometimes the answer. If she has to kill someone to accomplish a goal, she’ll do it without a second thought. (Though I feel like that falls under the “Evil” alignment). The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few in her eyes and she will do anything it takes to accomplish her goal and protect the people she cares about. Though she’d really rather not do anything for anyone at all, she always finds herself thrown into a situation where she has to help others. She’s the begrudging hero. Didn’t really want to save the day, but did it because she was there and had the ability to help. Her morals are based in what she learned as a child. Her mother kind of imposed her own morals and laws on Xen when she was growing up and because Xen felt like she was trapped by family and duty, she hated it and became pretty cynical at a young age, outright disagreeing and going against a lot of her mother’s more peaceful teachings.
Loki - Loki is more on the chaotic good or lawful neutral side I think. He wants to save and protect everyone he can and would definitely try to avoid killing or hurting anyone in the process. He has a calm, rational outlook on most situations and he’s not afraid to stand up for what’s right. He’d never impose his views on anyone and if he has to break a few laws or hurt some feelings to accomplish a goal, he’ll do it. He knows how to manipulate a situation to turn in his favor, choosing to use wit and words to solve problems instead of jumping to violence (though he will resort to violence if there’s no other way). This doesn’t come from his father, but a little from his mother and more from himself and the world around him.
Amy - Amy is definitely true good. She’s been through a lot of shit in her life and wants others to be happy and not have to deal with the kind of emotional abuse and neglect she had to go through at a young age. Her bright outlook on life reflects this and she makes sure to help people in need whenever she can. Putting a smile on someone’s face and making them happy, even just for a few minutes, is what Amy strives for. Her morals are definitely self imposed as she doesn’t remember her parents or sister and her still living relatives didn’t care about her and treated her like dirt.
Zak - Zak is probably lawful neutral. Maybe true good? He just wants people to be happy and he feels like bending the rules occasionally is okay if it’s for the greater good. Killing/hurting people is definitely out of the question, though and he’d probably step in to defend someone if they were being hurt. He’s a pretty good mediator and knows how to deescalate a situation without violence. He gets this from his parents and a little from himself and the environment around him. Also Amy has a pretty big influence on him too.
UFO: identity! what are some key identifying qualities or traits of your OC(s)? how do they identify in regards to gender/sexuality? -
Xennariel - She’s pretty cynical and always seems to be annoyed about something. Her sarcasm and wit are through the roof. She’s a natural leader, but she’s lazy so doesn’t want anything to do with all the work involved in being a leader. Xen is a cis female het ace. Literally anything is more interesting to her than sex. She’s still romantically attracted to men, she just doesn’t care about sex at all. Kissing and cuddling are okay with her, though she doesn’t really think about those sorts of things. Her first thought when she likes someone/is attracted to someone is not “hey, lets make out” or “I’d hit that” or something, but rather “hey, want to play some games? Maybe go on a hike? Just spend some time together?”
Loki - He’s got an air of class and coolness. He acts like he’s a cocky badass, but deep down he’s a nerd. He tends to banter with and pick on his friends/people he likes. He’s smart and capable, but would much rather be involved with interesting things, which to him are things considered weird or nerdy by the majority of society. Loki is a cis het male, though later on discovers he’s the TV Trope “Single Target Sexuality.” He’s attracted to women, but when it becomes apparent he likes someone, all he can see is that one woman and all the other women kind of just fade into the background and he never bats an eye at anyone but the woman he likes. He’s never been a hopeless romantic and it shows in just how oblivious he can be at realizing when someone is flirting with him or not.
Amy - Amy is flirty, spontaneous, and feisty. Cute guys draw her attention and she’s always talking about finding the perfect guy, though after so many failed attempts at a relationship, she’s skeptical that she’ll ever find someone right for her. She keeps an open, positive outlook on everything. Amy is a cis het female, as if evident by just how often a cute guy manages to steal her attention away no matter what she might be doing. She just wants to settle down with the right guy some day and feels like if she dates a bunch, eventually she’ll find her Mr. Right. The problem is she has no sense when it comes to romance and can’t tell when someone is flirting with her or romantically interested in her at all.
Zak - His quiet, calm, and cool outward demeanor belies the fact that he has a great sense of humor and quick wit with plenty of sarcasm thrown in. He can be easily frustrated and it’s a wonder that he has the patience for computer programming. Zak is a cis het male with a thing for blondes.
Thank you so much for sending some of these! These were fun. =D
Send me asks about my OCs?
