Meet Catalina
Lately I’ve been trying to make all the characters from Keeping Time in different picrews. I haven’t really had much luck with Catalina though so finally I just decided to draw her myself which is strangely on brand for Catalina.
So anyways, here she is. I’ll probably do a proper character intro when I have more information on her. She’s my favourite character so far, so going off of previous WIPs, that means she’ll probably have a really tragic backstory.
Character Profile: Clark Destella [The Psych Quartet]
Love Interest/Antagonist • 19 • Aquarius • INTP • Base {dark and brooding//orphan//the saddest boi you’ll ever meet//catches feelings too quickly//a ghost of his own past//controversial af//anxious puppy} [Character Tag]
Clark is a social outcast, feared by many because of his dark demeanor and his lack of ties to anybody or anything. This status is only cemented by his reaction to a recent tragedy, which renders him a bit of an emotional wildcard. Shockingly, Neil bonds with him over unexpected commonality and sees a much different person underneath the gloom, someone who has been abandoned and suffered immeasurable trauma. Clark is a skilled Psych, and bounces between acting as Neil's rival and his friend. Straightforward, private, and driven, Clark possesses a kind of intrigue that Neil can't help but feel drawn to. But when his ideology becomes too radical for Neil, he questions to what extent Clark can be trusted.
Sigh. Where to start with this walking disaster. Clark is a very troubled and recently orphaned Psych whom Neil first meets in Jayce’s office after he’s been caught brawling with a peer in the cafeteria. His father died years ago and his mother, who was the best friend and rival of Neil’s mother Celeste, has just died in the same accident that took Celeste’s life.
Needless to say, Clark’s not doing well.
Despite how closed off and sulky he is, Neil finds an unlikely companion in Clark. After all, they’re both going through an incredibly exposed and sensationalized personal loss, and there aren’t many people who can relate to that on such a specific level. Not only that, but it turns out Clark is also into photography, Neil’s one piece of Before that seems to carry into his life at Harmonium.
Clark raises a bandaged hand and scratches the back of his neck. “Yeah, but I get it. That’s what I wanted to talk about, actually. To be fully honest, I’m feeling really confused and angry about everything, and that moment made me realize that you’re the only person who might know what it’s like to be in this position.”
Neil breathes again. Clark’s not upset, he’s not going to throw a table at Neil’s head. He’s looking for a friend.
“Lots of Psychs lose parents like this, but it’s never such a public affair. It sucks.”
Surprisingly in touch with his emotions but with some rather dire abandonment issues, Clark finds himself attached to Neil almost immediately. Clark has an illicit task from a higher up with twisted ideas about his future; Clark’s proximity to Neil begins as a means to an end, but when he accidentally falls for Neil, he finds himself worse off than he was before Neil dropped into Harmonium.
The relationship between Clark and Neil is a subversion of the classic enemies to lovers. When Clark reveals some less-than-palatable ideologies about Elemental Psychs, Neil realizes he’s taking a large step in the wrong direction and does a quick 180. Not only that, but it seems that there may have been some involvement between Alex and Clark in the past as well. As a result, Clark quickly shuts himself off the any relationship with Neil and vows that he’ll regret what he’s done (which is a bit dramatic, but that’s sort of how he operates).
Clark’s anxiety manifests particularly in his fingers; he’s often found picking at his own nail beds (when they aren’t already wrapped in pale bandages). Despite this shaky demeanor, he contains hidden depths that shock Neil. As a Base, Clark doesn’t have access to any of the elements, but he still knows how to warp and (in some cases) abuse energy for his benefit.
Warily, Neil takes the hand. Clark pulls him up—he’s much stronger than he looks. Their hands stay intertwined for one second, two, and Clark pulls away. He ducks his head but it’s impossible to miss the blush that creeps into his cheeks.
“That was...impressive,” Neil says.
Clark looks up and nods. “Same to you, especially for someone who just got her. Watching you kick Pierce’s ass was the highlight of my week.”
In his desperation, Clark turns to drastic sources of hope. As Clark’s psyche unravels, Neil wonders if it’s possible that he could be involved in the sinister string of disappearances on campus. And he’ll stop at nothing to find out.

“Celia” The Circus Project
Find the wip intro and protagonist intro here
(I do not claim to own any of the beautiful photos here, if you find the photographers/artists tag them.)
Celia Mirelle
(the love interest ooooo <3)
Backstory:
Celia Mirelle is a girl who comes from the conservative town of Wilsfield, Ucraice. She wants nothing more than to be reunited with her older sister Roselyn, who ran away with the circus years before. Over the years, after her father and mother died of a plague, she followed in her sister's footsteps and trained herself in the art of aerial silk dancing; so that she may one day be able to run away with the circus and have a family again. Only, when she finally makes it to the show, Rose rejects her, and she is left to prove herself to everyone- especially the sister that no longer loves her.
A few fun facts about Celia:
- Aerial silk dancing came naturally to her because she is very talented and graceful (also really strong/fit)
- She'd never left her hometown before joining the circus; so literally an alien to all other cultures
- She’s actually pretty tall; 5′7
- She’s an honest, spirited, passionate, impulsive, and gullible little dove :)
- Bisexual icon ;)
- Very educated and booksmart! Not so much street smart though...
- Her name itself means from the heavens/ heavenly
-Was originally going to be the protagonist until my boi Silas stepped up :o
Original Character Introduction: Briony Hayes
status: one of the four main characters from Small Town Mentality
basic info: she/her, cisgender bisexual, twenty yrs old, white
Briony was plunged into the role of the golden child at a young age, as her twin brother never was quite up to their parent's standards. She learned who she had to be for the people around her instead of figuring out the person that she truly was. When new circumstances force her to break out of her restrictive shell, there isn’t anything to fall back on but herself.
[Alt text: The sun from the glass stained windows hit just right on her neckline to catch a glimpse of her silver cross necklace that lied between her short blonde braids. But if you took a step closer, you’d realize it was in the shape of a dagger.]
tde- eira xue chen-guang
guess i'm a coward / i just want to feel alright
BASIC: twenty-five, lesbian, she/her or they/them, wood-elemental, lin-di'ren (a person from lin-di)
BACKSTORY: ten years ago, eira returned from a hunt to see her village bombed. she's been roaming from city to city all across alsaea ever since. but in a tavern in abdhainn, she overhears a rumor that a powerful metal-elemental family have ties to the destruction of her home.
she's made the trek to the capital, and she's attempting to scale their mansion's walls with her vines when she's caught by their teenage son. she takes the son as a hostage, planning to use him to get closer to his powerful father, but her plans are complicated by his brilliant classmate; the chaos of a civil war; and the fact that she might be getting too attached to the two annoying brats for her own good.
(here's the thing about eira—she's so, so, isolated and it cannibalises her, it is a great big hole inside her that has bled unceasingly for ten years. so she clutches on to the only people she loves like a lifeline, unaware that she's dragging them down with her. this is not an apology. this is an elegy.)
TROPES: big sister mentor; jerk with a heart of gold; tragic hero
WIP Character introduction: Vivian
Pictured on the left is her day form, pictured on the right is her night form.
Vivian is the adopted sibling of Rin and a Sea Elf. She is cooperative, kind, but she is not nearly as open and extroverted as Bloom. Usually, she is open minded, but if upset she has an awful temper.
She’s also rather overprotective of her friends and family.
Her abilities mainly consist of water magic.
Maybe Just Death character intro!
✦ Lourens (goes by Lore)
✦ 26
✦ human (he’s fae-touched but like. he’s still human)
(very brief) bio:
Lore grew up in a really poor farming family with lots of siblings and a lot of parental love, but he was always a wistful child, never really doing what needed to be done, always wandering off into the fields of wildflowers or taking a walk up the rocking hillside in an attempt to see the sea. One day, a beautiful woman approached him and offered him paradise if he would only give her his name. Lore knew what she was really asking for, but he gave it anyway because he wanted to get out. The woman took him to the fae realm, where he became her pet, her consort, something she could dress up and parade around for the others to see. And Lore... he liked the attention, but sometimes... he didn’t. For nine years, he lived with her, until a civil war broke out among the fae and she sent Lore back to Earth, giving him one last gift - every spoken language - before she disappeared from him forever. Unsure where he was, Lore wandered the cold forest for what felt like forever before he found his savior in Andrew, a patient necromancer who guided him back to his house and warmed him up. Their peaceful existence got serious very fast when an injured girl showed up at their door, but Lore’s determined to bring some light with them no matter how dark their destinies become.
stilted thoughts on him:
plant boy!!!! plants love him because he spent so much time in the fae realm, he’s mentally and physically 26 but by the time he gets back to earth nearly 1000 years has passed so a lot of shit is new to him, he’s dealing with some dark personal things but he tries to be happy for the group, 100% in love with Andrew and thinks it’s unrequited (it won’t be for long), loves physical affection, 10/10 will brush Hina’s hair for her
