felt OCs based off of the baseball pocket billiard version of pool!!! most of the designs are subject to change but I think these are good enough for now
I haven’t thought of ideas for their abilities for all of them yet yet but I’ve come up with a few!!!
number 16, Cease (name deriving from the word “Seize” which is the number 16 in French, following the naming pattern of Quarters and Cans) can see the past/present/future based on their ocular exposure to light: in the dark,,, they see the present... in a moderate regular amount of light,,, they see the past… in a very bright amount of light, they see the future!!! they carry around a lantern that assists them incase they ever need to see the future!!! I was considering making it a juju but I didn’t really have any good ideas sooo it’s just a regular lantern… for now atleast…
number 17,,, Vixen (name deriving from the word “Vixi” which means “to die” in Latin,,, and can also be rearranged to the Roman numerals XVII,,, the number 17!!! this is also the explanation to why the number 17 is seen as bad luck in Italy!!!) can control and modify the age / lifespan of objects,,, and some forms of life too but with a lot of focusing needed!!! (theoretically he could modify the age / lifespan of anything and anyone but it would take him alot of time and/or intense focus to do so)
number 18,,, Pictogram (name deriving from… well,,, pictograms… but I also chose this name because 1. it breaks the pattern of the leprechauns’ names by being the only one to have 3 syllables,,, and 2. the “-cto” part in picto could also be interpreted as the prefix “octo”,,, the number 8!!! the first reasoning is due to me wanting to give him a sort of misfit pattern-breaking mismatched theme,,, also including his design itself with the colors being significantly darker than the rest of his body,,, asymmetrical eyes and arbitrary suit button position!!!) has a paintbrush juju that allows him to draw any point in time to time travel to it,,, so either a memory from the past OR,,, with assistance from a future seer,,, a moment in the future!!! additionally,,, he owns a pen juju that lets him write down any date that he can time travel to,,, with the cost of having to write every single detail,,, down to even the fraction of a second of the point in time he wants to teleport to!!!
number 19,,, Sanguine (name deriving from the synonym for blood,,, also being named after blood moons… I also chose the moon theming because of the metonic lunar cycle,,, which is 19 years long!!!) sadly doesn’t have any abilities thought out for him yet… I was thinking of giving him some sort of space controlling powers involving planets or asteroids or something but I don’t know how I’d tie it in with the whole time / doom thing… and either way it doesn’t really seem like a convenient power for the felt… you could argue that there isn’t really a consistent theming for the abilities of the leprechauns when we take characters like Clover and Quarters for example,,, but I still want to come up with an ability that suits the lunar theming while still being useful… if anyone has any suggestions or ideas,,, do feel free to let me know >3<
number 20,,, Winds (name deriving from how the number 20 in Italy is translated to “Venti”,,, which is the plural of the word wind!!! the name also partially comes from the phrase “winds of time” or “winds of change”) also doesn’t have any abilities thought of yet… maybe something to do with his hand-fan??? could be a juju maybe??? i don’t knowww….
and last but not least!!! number 21,,, Pontoon (name deriving from the old slang word for the game of Blackjack,,, the reasoning being because Blackjack consists of having to get as close to 21 as possible with your cards) owns a deck of magic cards as his juju: each card has a member of The Felt attached,,, and shuffling and picking one of the cards from the deck will teleport the person picking the cards to the felt member in question!!! if the card picked is attached to a member that is currently dead,,, the person will instead be teleported to a timeline where they’re alive!!! I know it doesn’t really make sense to have a blackjack-themed character to have a power connected to magician cards rather than blackjack cards,,, but whatever!!! it’s still cards!!! blehhh!!!
AND THAT’S IT !!! !!! !!! !!! let me kno if u guys have any suggestions or ideas or just commentary… I’m very excited to hearing your thoughts about them!!! <3333
