💡 Why does your OC exist (in meta)?

i thought it'd be funny to make a character who just like........ cries at everything dsfhhdf i mean look at his name. thats his actual, canon name. im so sorry for giving you this fate sb

Originally this guy was made for a fandom RP as part of a requirement, which stated that all applicants needed to have one human character and one non-human character. As someone who mostly RPed with ferals prior to this, I really didn't expect Fyodor to really be anything more than the angry existentialist who sass-talked at the other characters every 25 seconds?? Still, I guess he was a nice way to flex some RPing muscles... I literally based him off of a book character at first because I had like.... No idea how to make actual human characters, and I kind of expected him to be a minor character compared to my non-human characters. I played myself really hard regarding both parts, as can be seen with his profile. :"))))

he was created to be my persona in a 'comic' that was to star pirate versions of kids from our highschool, hence why his first design is that of a 16 year old boy x'D... he's come so far over the years.

Ruthenia began as an anthro of chemical element 44, ruthenium (the periodic table...hella special interest...). I fleshed out the world and characters a lot, and this fact proved to be the eventual kindling for a novel project, Eagles and Swans. Being one of my faves, Ruthenium was an easy choice for the main character of the new project.

Of course, because E&S is set in a regular low fantasy universe, I had to rename all the characters. Some got fully renamed (Aleigh used to be Radium, Hollia was Hafnium) and some...were renamed the way Ruthenia was, by flipping the -um to a or o. See also: Titanio

Marcia has a good story as well. There was a period in my life (2012 or so) when I was really into historical torture and execution devices and I decided to anthropomorphise them. No, really.

Proto-Marcia was, naturally, the Brazen Bull. Of all the designs, the Brazen Bull's really stuck with me, so when I started conceptualising RD I was like, let's adapt that gijinka into an actual character. That character was Marcia.

For me it's quite interesting what it like act like an human and for that reason I made it (I don't even call this oc he or else:3). It kinda fall in love with humanity and wants to be a human. But whenever it tries to be too reasonable or too much sensitive, it makes it far from real human, actually human don't do sth like "ok, I need to be look like human and let's do like this". 

Anyway, whatever this character do, it looks like an human but not real human and I want to catch the gap between of those:D

roman and his "wife" exist because at the time i was watching a lot of investigation discovery and listening to deep web stories, so i wanted to make a hitman and a black widow killer :p

I legit wanted a sexy fluffy character and this was the product. My now sona Q_Q

I wanted to program a game about an Eevee, but was too stupid to program jumping correctly, so I made a flying Eevee instead. Now he is a completly different species though.

My first thought when coming up with Chris was, “I want a character who wears sunglasses and is a chill dude”. I just thought it’d be cool; then more ideas were generated from there. I actually made this character for an rp offsite, and he’s the third character of mine in that rp. The next thing I thought of when it came to developing Chris was, “he needs a tragic backstory and a reason as to why he wears sunglasses all the time other than because he likes it”, and it was difficult coming up with that at first. He was originally going to have some sort of physical impairment either near his eyes or with his eyes; I tossed around the idea of giving him a scar near his eye or making him blind/half blind, but neither of those really stuck with me. That was when I realized that I could just come up with an emotional reason, and now here he is with a complete bio (for now; as the rp goes on I’ll add more to the Main Story segment of the Backstory tab), and I love him so much that right now I’m trying to spoil him with art XD

My first OC.

Originally, Trio was created for a DBZ fanfic I was handwriting back in my early teens. There was even an Outlaw Star crossover at the end of it...

Back then, she was named Cornet as I had just recently finished Rhapsody (on PlayStation) and was pretty into the game.

A few years later, I gave her a name swap to fit my change in interest - which at the time happened to be Gundam Wing. In that particular fandom, she was Solo’s sister (?) and Duo’s love interest. Back in the day, I really didn’t like Hilde much haha...

Eventually, my best friend and I took both our fan characters and - after a bit of a revamp - created an original storyline for them.

What began as a Mary Sue fan character, truly became sometime much more.
