Art Fight Attack #2

Yet to make a pinned post so here it is!

My name is Uni (she/her), and I am primarily an artist, writer, programmer, and reader. I am in various fandoms, most of which you will be able to see on my banner along with a few flags. That will be posted at the bottom of this post as well, though will become outdated eventually.

I am currently working on four main projects, those being:

The Series of Yandorix (fantasy novel series)

An unnamed ARG about mudskippers

S.A.V.I.O.R., a post-apocalyptic video game about robots, gods, and people who are not okay

The Observer, a novella about a person with DPDR who tries to wait out their illness by doing what they believe they best can at this time: learn.

I also have autism and identify as aroace, both of which I am proud of :D

And speaking of people with DPDR, I happen to have it, too, so be mindful of that. You may send me asks about it if you wish, though please note that it affects everyone in different ways and my experience is far from everyone else's.

Most of my posts on Tumblr will be related to fandoms I'm in, though I will post updates on my original work when major my significant things happen, or whenever I feel like writing about them. I post all of my art on my bluesky (@TheUniqueen) if you're curious about that.

I also run the studio Halfhearted Productions, which creates original video games and has no other members but myself currently. It has a page on Itch.io and Bluesky, though I may also make a Tumblr account for it as well outside of this one in specific.

This is the aforementioned banner, now:

Ask about whatever featured media/flags you wish!

Being in bad fandoms has kind of ruined the way I view many of my own ocs. Now instead of only viewing them as my own creations that conform to only my standards, I'm constantly analyzing for anything "problematic". I have caught myself asking the following about many ocs and projects of mine:

- Is this queer couple stereotypical in any way, shape, or form?

- Could this depiction of a woman be considered misogynistic in any way?

- I don't have that many dark skinned characters in this particular project, will people call that racist?

- I've stated this character to have a sexuality, but based on the rest of the character, will people assume I'm going to write it stereotypically?

- This character suffered trauma I haven't experienced myself but plan to research in depth to try and show as accurately as possible as well as asking other people about the accuracy of the depiction, but should I write this in at all if I haven't had it happen to me even if it's a major issue I want to spread awareness about?

- Is this villain painting the sexuality I've given them badly due to being a villain? Will people call me homophobic for this??

- Did I not add in enough straight people?

- I've made a lot of intentionally queer characters but not as many intentionally trans ones because I don't yet know how to properly write that and usually don't state wether someone is cis or trans, will people call me a transphobe?

- I've only shown one person with this particular job and it's built a lot of their character, will people come at me for it being inaccurate or a stereotype? (The job in question was acting in theater, btw).

- Does this aspect of a character feel thrown in? Does it seem like representation for the sake of having representation?

There's probably many more I'm missing but I regret having joined so many fandoms that harass creators for no reason because it's made me change things about my own ocs and simply not state things because I'm scared they'll cause me backlash. I mainly post my ocs on Artfight, but plan to make actual medias of all of them. My own stories are the main thing I live for and unnecessary drama like this in fandoms I'm in has really been detrimental to my mental health which already is far from great.
