I'll let you ask about Caiden if you let me kiss jellybean rat's tiny head
My old man, not actually old but I've had him and his universe for so long he's dubbed my old man
I am currently unable to keep up due to having moved, but I will come back to this thread when I can!
(holding out my hand) give me your OCs. Let me ask questions.
100% inspired by Trowa's super trendy post! It got me all hyped up to talk about my own OCs, and so I want to pay it forward to everyone else.
Pick one OC. Post IC, and I'll read through your OC's profile and find questions to ask you. It might take me some time, but I'll be sure to get back to everyone. Don't worry about how many people are ahead of you, I'll get to ya!
I’m amazed by the traction this thread got! We had over 250 posts when I unfortunately had to close it, and now I'm bringing it back! It’s so much fun to read profiles I might not have otherwise even found, and then get to dig deep into their backgrounds with questions! I have seen a couple of people say that they might want to ask me questions; this is 100% NOT required and if you just want to drop a character and come back to answer questions, you are valid in that!
But if you DO want to ask me about my characters in turn, I would recommend Apocalypse Tokyo! (Although you’re free to venture into others, of course!) This is just my active folder that I work on regularly. Or, if you want to ask about an underdeveloped world, "of the rising sun" is my new project. Once again, NOT required. No need to feel pressured to think something up!
Question batch #5! At this point in the night I am sorry if I'm missing info from your oc's bio; I am getting Sleepy and my mind is jumpin around while I read.
Did Meigui he intend to return from school, or was this a permanent solution to getting away from the monotony of his routine? Did he come to dislike overly-emotional people because of his position? Did Meigui always realize that he was leading a cult, or did this only become clear later?
When and how was Nina gifted/cursed with agelessness? Is she truly immortal, or can she die if sick or injured? Who made her ageless? Why is she interested in trains? Her bio says she needs not consume food or drink to survive, but that she can suffer from hunger and thirst--what is the longest she's gone without eating or drinking, and was the situation pretty bad?
What happened during the attack on Clarissa's group home? Had she lived there since infancy? Did she have friends there? Is Clarissa a Joestar, and if so, how is she related to the bloodline?
What do the eyes on Vassago's halos do? Does he see through them in one way or another? Did Vassago ever try to return to heaven, and what happened if he did? When Vassago met Vice, or afterwards, did he happen to have any visions of the future with her? Vice is listed as his boss, what does Vassago do for her?
What first made Chris start to question his family's religious beliefs? Was there a specific event/teaching that he secretly began to question or disagree with? His bio says that he started to figure out his sexuality online; was that through a community that he found on the internet, or something else? Did he ever have to explain away internet history for his parents' benefit? Does Chris have any contact with his parents at this point in time? Do they know how he's doing? Does Peter stand up for him when he comes up in conversation among the family?
I wasn't sure how much of the stuff posted was current, so apologies in advance: What IS an Abyssion? How did Spectratrix lose her eye? Was that because of the battle with her mother, or the humans' machine? Did Spectratrix mourn Scripter at all, or was she relieved when he was gone? Does she dream, or have nightmares about her childhood? Or has she put it entirely behind herself?
You mentioned in your comment in the thread that she is an urban explorer now; is she still an Abyssion in this version of the lore? How do she and Virgel get along?
Does he have a favorite romance novel that he returns to every time? He lives for the spotlight; does that include negative attention? Or does he draw away from that kind of attention? His notes say his ears are long "even by elf standards"-- why is that? Is that a natural occurence, or did he have his ears modified to get more attention?
What made Micca a pushover? Has he always been that way, or did something happen in his youth or even recently to make him meek? What does the flower in Micca's eye represent? Is Micca still aware when Ciro fronts/takes over, or does he just wake up later with hours having passed? What kind of abilities or skills does Ciro have that Micca doesn't?
Beefy -- HIS NAME? HANDS FULL, 2019. i love this painting so much. It brings me joy.
Teddy Wrinkles: How are his attempts to leave his past behind going? Why did he leave the yakuza? As a journalist, does he report on a lot of crime, especially yakuza crime, or is that off limits for him? What is his favorite kind of clothing to munch on?
UncleJimothy -- you may kiss it.... once.
How did Caiden and Will bond? Did they just talk a lot, or did something happen on the way from here to there that brought them so close? When Caiden became a substitute teacher, what grade(s) did he teach? What subjects were his favorites to teach? What was Caiden's young life like, before high school? What caused his social ineptitude, and what skewed his moral code? Was it his first kill, or something else? Does he now see Will as a permanent feature in his life, or does he worry that their time together is quickly coming to an end?
NejiShadow -- it'll happen!! wise of you to post...
Are Noch's ears full of some sort of fluid, and does it serve a purpose, or just look neat? Who designed Noch to fulfill their job? Are Sychobunns common where he's from? Does his hair grow, and can he feel sensations like touch, temperature, or pain? What made you choose to go with the bull ears in their design?
aaaaa I'm finally caught back up!
Well so
When North was created, She was born not as a baby, but a young child. So she aged like a regular human, but skipped the baby era. She did have a childlike wonder when she was born, and she was very naive, and sometimes still can be. Her Perception is based totally on Aura. Certain colors give off certain vibes and she tends to stick to her perception. However it’s not like she can do it on will. It mainly happens whenever she’s in danger.
These might have gotten long so it's under a spoiler; nonetheless, thank you for the questions aaa, I had fun answering them!
What do the eyes on Vassago's halos do? Does he see through them in one way or another?
For now, the best answer for this is "try not to think about it too hard" oops- the meta reason for them is that it's meant to be a reference to ophanim angels, since I wanted to keep Vassago's design not too angelic and still include visual cues that he's not what he seems! But now that you've asked this question, I think he might use those eyes to see the future/look at the past! :o
Did Vassago ever try to return to heaven, and what happened if he did?
For now, the answer is no, but I'll write about what would happen if he did try to return-
Long story short, it would not end well at all. He'd have to be on diplomatic duty in order to not be annihilated on sight, and even then he's an unperson in Heaven because all records of him got purged, so it's likely that nearly nobody would recognize him save for a few people. And that's not even considering his family; he's been especially purged there, and the mere mention of his name is enough to seriously jeopardize your reputation in said family because he used to be seen as the most valuable member of the family before his fall, so his fall was just... too painful for everyone involved, both for emotional and practical reasons.
When Vassago met Vice, or afterwards, did he happen to have any visions of the future with her?
I don't think he did have that many visions of her, but I think when he was still under her wing he saw her as a constant, reassuring person or something similar in his visions? When it was time for him to leave I think he might have foreseen that too-
Vice is listed as his boss, what does Vassago do for her?
I don't think he's a super special subordinate of hers, so his duties would probably just be reporting back to her about the mortal world or about his summoners, maybe giving prophecies or finding lost objects too? The Goetic demons don't do punishment, that's a different group of demons entirely.
damedanbo Answers under spoiler!
What happened during the attack on Clarissa's group home?
Stand user broke in, most of the kids were outside playing so Clarissa was upstairs by herself when it happened. The stand user specifically wanted revenge on her for her bloodline ties- but she didn't really know that at the time. And even if she had, she still would've left anyway just to prevent any of the other kids being hurt either deliberately anyway or as collateral damage from any stand battles she would have to have in the future.
Had she lived there since infancy?
No. She was tossed into various foster homes in infancy and at about 5 is when the government threw in the towel on getting her into a permanent home and shoved her into a group home to live in.
Did she have friends there?
Not really friends per se. She was the youngest when she came in, and the oldest one in her group home before she left. The current kids viewed her more like a caretaker/substitute mommy than anything, the kids in the past saw her as an embarrassing little baby and wanted nothing to do with her.
Is Clarissa a Joestar, and if so, how is she related to the bloodline?
:^)
She's not a Joestar! However...she is descended from Dio's bloodline (not directly though, Dio's long been dead by the time she was born haha.) Her father will be revealed in due time.
This is super cool! I have my child Nimb who could probably do with some questions!
Thank you in advance, I've never done this before!
What made Micca a pushover?
It actually stems from his childhood. Micca was always one of the quiet kids who tried to keep to themselves as much as possible. Unfortunately, he was also one of the smarter people in school too, and being physically weaker than others due to his asthma, he did whatever people wanted to out of fear. It wasn't like he wanted to, though, but you have to do what you need to do ib order to survive.
What does the flower in Micca's eye represent?
The flower actually represents Ciro's mark upon Micca. When Ciro was cast to Earth, the flower started as a bud, with Micca blissfully unaware of what was occurring until it blossomed into a full fleshed flower. Then, and only then, was Ciro able to connect with what was now his human vessel. The flower is also a rhododendron, which is a highly poisonous flower, as poison is Ciro's thing.
The only people who are able to see the flower is Ciro and anyone that is magically gifted. Exorcists included.
Is Micca aware of Ciro's presence when he takes over?
Actually, it's a gamble. Oftentimes, Ciro only takes over in highly stressful situations for Micca, which tends to put him in a sort of semi-hibernation mode in order for him to cool down. Other times, Ciro is taking over just because there is something he wants to say that Micca won't, so he takes over. But then Micca wants his body back, so it sometimes becomes a back and forth.
What kind of abilities or skills does Ciro have that Micca doesn't?
Well, to be clear, Micca is a human and Ciro is a flower demon. When Ciro is in control, he knows how to make concentrated vials of poison(which he keeps stripped to Micca's leg), and has strength and ability. Unfortunately, due to the asthma and the fact that was... Micca is quite frail, he can't use it as often. He's crippled within the human world for not doing his duty.
I was waffling on whether to hop on this bandwagon but tbh your incredibly ominous thread title has convinced me. currently obsessed w this nerd and their sister but anyones good! thank u
