TO NOTE:
Update (as of 1/26/2023)
So I’ve had Krow for a few months now. Not nearly as long as my other OC’s but decent length of time for me to have figured out some things. However, even so, this blog is mainly for fun, just a means of me writing and drawing for this goofy boy, so some answers may just be silly. Don’t take EVERYTHING I say as the end all be all canon of Krow. I may change my mind on things (and I have before, a number of times).
Below is my old To Note but I’ll keep it up anyway ndfgbl.szf
Krow is a very new character for me, which is to say; until/unless I say otherwise, do NOT take everything said here for absolute canon, lore and fact. You’re basically seeing and experiencing the messy process that is... creating a character, and in many ways, helping me develop him further.
Things can and will change with him. Design, lore, bits of personality and so on.
Just so you’re aware. (:
(Anon asks are OFF because I am simply not comfortable with having them on. Apologies.)

F.A.Q.
(Probably put more here later)
Does Krow have a VN? When is he getting one?
I’ve gotten a number of asks and questions about this from numerous people since I first started this blog and the answer is still the same: I don’t know.
I created Krow mainly as just a way to entertain myself and because games like 14DWY and RH inspired me to. Krow happened to strike a chord with the community, I was asked by a few friends to make a blog so they could send in goofy asks. Now Krow has a decent following (which I am grateful for!) and so I’ve been getting asked this more and more.
If I were to seriously consider a VN though, I would have to do a LOT of work. When I made Krow, I created him “in a vacuum” as I like to put it, by which I mean... he doesn’t HAVE a story. There aren’t other defined characters, a setting or such besides him and Dove. So if I were to make a VN, I would need to think of other characters, the setting and so on.
While I am not settled on the idea of a VN yet, I HAVE been muddling on expanding the “Krow Verse” as it were. I hope to introduce some other characters to you all soon!
How old is Krow?
So *I* personally headcanon Krow at 25, HOWEVER, generally speaking, he can be whatever you headcanon him at as long as he’s 18+. My other headcanon is that he is always a year older than you/Dove.
How tall is Krow?
Similar to his age, you can headcanon him at various heights. However, his MAX height (and what I headcanon him as) is 5′1″, but he is always at least one inch shorter than you.
Krow is absolutely fine with Dove being much taller than him.
What ethnicity is Krow?
Krow is Indian + Bengali, though he was born in America! And this will ALWAYS be canon.
What’s Krow’s job?
He works as a crime scene/forensics cleaner! He works for a very small (as in about five people including him) licensed company to go around and clean up the scenes of murders, not so wellness checks and the like.
He also does some black market organ selling as a side hustle, which come from his own murders.
He is also sometimes commissioned to do art! (In particular his other yandere friends go to him for art pieces.)
So Krow’s an artist, what kind of art does he do?
The answer is... a bit of everything lmao. Mostly draws and paints, since that’s the easiest and most portable. But he also sculpts (as in using clay but he also buys blocks of marble or such to literally carve into when he can afford it), wood carving and widdling, has done metal working, sometimes writes poetry, customizes and even builds dolls. Pretty much any (traditional) visual art medium there is, Krow has done/does.
Does Krow have a speech impediment?
He does! He’s had his stutter for many years, but has never gotten any kind of correctional therapy for... spoilery reasons.
How did Dove meet Krow?
There isn’t really a “canon” way (as of now) that Dove meets Krow, just that it was purely coincidental. So you can headcanon pretty much almost anything of how Dove and Krow meet. Examples I’ve listed before have been at the park, out just walking in public, the grocery store, maybe even your work. To Dove, it may have just been some run of the mill encounter.
For Krow however, it was life changing.
FOR ALL THAT IS HOLY WHERE IS THE NSFW ABC’S??!!!
I finally got you bae’s. It is right here
Okay what about his SFW ABC's?
They are right here!
*hanging onto site by fingernails until I am ousted*
A sore throat he'll just drink something like hot water with honey, lemon juice and ginger added to it and call it a day.
He probably steals cough drops or peppermints and dissolves them into hot tea to make them last longer. Maybe adds a sachet of hot sauce for congestion. (From a handful stashed when the crew worked long late hours and Luke treated them all to takeout.)
A mustard packet is eaten anytime Krow needs to settle heartburn.
He forages or grows herbs for herbal tea.
He eats a lot of oranges and steals ibuprofen
...Honestly some of these are good tips that *I* didn't know.
How does Krow normally act if he’s sick, from just stomach aches and colds to full on terrible fevers? Is he the type to suck it up and pretend he’s okay, does he like to be babied a bit and taken care of, or something in between? How accepting is he of getting help, from dove and others?
What are his preferences for treating being ill [does like taking a bunch of medicine? does like like relying on natural remedies? does he rest different than he usually does? What does he do?]
Is this man drawing while sick and getting snot all of the paper? Anyway yeah.
It kind of depends on the sickness and severity.
A little bit of sniffles he'll just suck it up and keep going. But if he has a nasty stomach bug or something where he's confined to the bed, he wouldn't mind a lil babying from Dove. (But this also does depend on the kind of sickness he has. Some he won't take babying, others he'll whine a little and want some extra attention.)
That also depends on what he has. A sore throat he'll just drink something like hot water with honey, lemon juice and ginger added to it and call it a day. He can't really afford to go to the doctor or get expensive, pricey medicines so he probably does rely on natural remedies a lot and probably just tends to rest/sleep more.
You think he has any medicines that straight up don’t work in him or are all of them pretty effective [ex: melatonin, Benadryl, etc.]?
Do you think caffeine does a lot to him or like not at all.
Is there any weird interactions with medicines and his body or no, since this man is also venomous?
Hmm, that's something I haven't considered but is a good question. I'm not super familiar with various drugs and their compositions to say what is or isn't effective with Krow.
Likely there ARE weird interactions because he's not fully human? But this is honestly something I hadn't considered. I'm comfortable leaving it to folk's headcanons.
The more I think about it, Dove has to have their own kind of nonsense going on.
Imagine that haunted house scenario where Krow is pretending to run, perhaps playing cat and mouse or planning to draw Killer!Dove into a vulnerable position, and he finally turns around to finish them off…
Only to see a pair of glowing eyes coming down the hallway towards him.
For this particular au, absolutely.
One has to ask; who is the monster? Is it Krow? Is it Dove?
I know there's been movies (a few horror definitely) exploring the idea of "two evils" against each other which would definitely be what this would be, more or less.
Often a stutter disappears when someone sings, so I think Krow sings perfectly
Oh definitely. He wouldn't think he really does/can sing but he has a pretty decent singing voice truly.
I have a totally different OC who also has a bit of a speech impediment/stuttering problem but DEFINITELY sings well and yeah, the stutter disappears when she sings.
I’m going to pretend rocs exist in this world. (Maybe in the remote desert areas of alternate America.) And that they can take human form/glamour like dragons traditionally do.
*swoops down and effortlessly carries Krow away with a 120m wingspan*
...So then what are you gonna do with him? Eat him? /silly
Does Krow ever exercise just by itself, not like physical activity from work or gardening or art endeavors or basic daily activities, but just exercise for the sake of exercise?
If I gotta be honest I don't think so. He really doesn't go to the gym or go for jogs/runs (even though he does enjoy walks). The exercise he gets is really from work, gardening and various art activities and walking. He considers that pretty good.
Does he go on walks? If so how often and where does he like going? Does he have a place he likes going outside often both near his home and in town?
Definitely! Both just cause he enjoys it but it helps with like, getting some inspo and the like.
His favorite places are the woods not too far from his house, and then the parks within Columbidae City. Those are his favorite walking areas. He of course takes lil sketch books to quickly draw some stuff, even a mini watercolors at times too.
