i would love to hear about your ocs!!! i've seen your art of one but don't know anything beyond that, so what are your fallen london ocs like?

HELL YES thank you chiara!!!! aaaahhhhh okay i designed them to complement each other and also to be more of, like ... a fun story than two people who i think would Be Good Together if they existed lol prefacing w that since i know how literally this stuff can be interpreted sometimes

ribbinack is watchful/shadowy, she came to the neath to search for the man who killed her daughter. She becomes a private investigator who specializes in missing persons cases in hopes of tracking down someone who knows something about the murderer. she's usually serious and austere and laser focused on her goal of revenge but she has a lot of fire burning inside her and it comes out occasionally. she's capable of doing pretty dark things to achieve her goals but usually avoids that. She naturally adores learning, loves the correspondence (thats a language that does things like make your ears/eyes bleed when you read or listen to it), devours the history of the neath and begins to love it even though she initially saw it only as a means to an end. She is closely tied to death - the fact that its rarely permanent in the neath gives rise to her most secret desire, which is to find a way to bring her daughter back to life. Shes closest to the tomb colonists and to urchins, orphans specifically.

sieva sol is dangerous/persuasive! shes the daughter of a surface crime lord who came to the neath to make her own name. she quickly realized she has a talent for showmanship and began making a living as a LEGENDARY con artist. her main thing is being a snake oil salesman - coming up with fake remedies and patent medicine and traveling the neath peddling it. Shes fascinated by bodies and anatomy and many of her "cures" actually sedate patients so she can "study" them later. to this end, she is a bit of a serial killer .... though in the neath that's not as big a deal as it would be elsewhere. (she has never permanently killed someone!) she and rib meet while rib is hunting down missing persons who went missing because of sieva. She's unscrupulous and charming and ferocious and sly and she adores devils but believes herself fully capable of outwitting them (BAD idea). Once she and rib know each other rib forces her to stop doing the fake medicine thing and she turns to sleight of hand magic for her livelihood instead.

THEY ARE MARRIED ... idk the WHOLE story of them getting to that point yet though, a lot of things haven't concluded for them yet (like rib hasnt found her daughters murderer in game) so :) we'll see!!! AND THANK U FOR ASKING
