Random OC ramblings

Posted 5 years, 3 months ago (Edited 2 years, 9 months ago) by Kogami

I wanted a thread like this but couldn't find any? Let me know if there's already one.

This thread serves as the lovechild of What are you thinking [IC] and General comments thread! As in, you want to make a general comment, or any random thoughts + ramblings (and as OOC) about your characters but doesn't fit in others character discussions thread and felt like the general comments thread doesn't fit either :'D

Just share anything you want as long as it stays within this guideline:

  • This is for OOC comments only, go to the original thread this was inspired from if you want to post your thoughts while roleplaying!
  • You're free to post as OOC or IC as long as your comment is OOC. 
  • Questions, advices, suggestions or just any conversations are always welcomed~
  • Advertising your new character or projects related to your characters is fine, but try to minimize advertising anything for the purpose of profit/money like adoptables, character purge, etc.
  • No vaguing or namedrops, the latter one is only allowed if it's a positive thing.
  • I'm not sure if I would allow sensitive contents or venting/complaints here for now but at the very least try to keep it minimum or put it under spoiler or black text. Label it for safety. (NSFW automatically not allowed.)
  • Be nice and respect each other!!
  • Post as often as you want as long as it doesn't clog the thread!

Lo Cliodna

My brain is going a bit haywire and throwing vivid daydreams of my DnD campaign my way, and its stuff thats so specific that it'll never happen the way I imagine it to and if I told my DM about it in order to make it happen it'd not be organic anymore.

The scene in my head, right, involves Lo having a sweet moment with one of the workers in The Kings Shame whom he fancies - said worker is named Leda (known to clients as Lorissa) and she's a changeling who regularily takes on the form of buxon tiefling lady. She's h. She's dissatisfied with the humdrum of her life and even jealous that Lo's a sorcerer, because she's not talented in any combat skills that would let her leave the safety of the city.

I imagine that if Lo and Leda happened to be alone together, in lets say the Kings Shames' tavern-portion during closing hour, then he could tell her about what its' like out there, eventually motioning her over and telling her that he can just "show her". And then sit this city-gal down, in the middle of the floor, and sit beside her. And use Prestidigitation cantrip to hut off all but one or two lightources in the room. And then use the Major Image spell to weave this beautiful illusion of a mountainside on a chilly evening, the sky full of stars,the fireplace crackling, the mountains looming on the horizon. Give forth the scent of the place, the sound of crickets and crackling flames. The whole thing is a fancy 20x20 skybox, but if you sit just right it look real, down tothe temperature. And he could just...let her experience the wilderness, and take off his coat and warm it up with Prestidigitation and wrap it around her for the illusory mock-cold and it'd be romantic. I think its less about the words and more about just how breathtakingly beautiful that illusory sight would look (being an idealized memory of some place he'd actually been to), and the idea of sharing my characters' experiences in far-away places.

Kaho Rei Erinwashere

Lord please help me I originally made Kaho to be hated but now I love him more than everything except my gf.

I mean I guess I kinda succeeded, I hate Kaho's old personality. If he was still that way he would not be as much of a comfort character to me as he is now. Lowkey yandere lookin ass. When designing him I was planning on using him in this one story- then I ended up hating the idea and gave up on it, but I liked Kaho's design and decided to rework him.

And I kinda find it scary how much I relate to him now... my old art teacher once told me she saw a bit of me in all my characters, which at the time I didn't like, but now it seems to be true looking at how much a relate to characters I didn't even mean to make relatable.

Anyway, Kaho, muah, favorite oc, and I dunno if that's a good or bad thing. I always have so much fun drawing him. I had a friend who didn't like him and it hurt because she never told me why, and when I confronted her about it she still refused to answer for a dumb reason. I don't mind if you don't like my characters, like I said he was originally meant to be hated, I just want to at least know the reason, y'know?

And God I want to draw him with his boyfriend more, but I can never find the inspiration. Men, Ladies, others, get yourself someone who will emotionally support you.

The fact I have ocs made 8-9 yrs ago and I'm still using them in my project makes me feel both old and childish at the same time.

They're such a big part of me and are more important for me than they probably should. I'm creating original characters since 2002, I can't even imagine how it feels to not have ocs. Wish it could not affect my personal life that much. :I

thinking about how we all have an oc squad based on the seven deadly sins and how gluttony probably got arrested for crimes against fashion

Been thinking about how most of the headcanons for my character's interactions are based on vines and tiktoks. Lordy, I wish I knew how to write proper dialogue again.

yanderechips

Thinking how my characters are always either mean, kind, or shy. But if you're not any of those you count as a side character

But if you are a side character and have those personalitys you're not important to the main story

Either that or you're baby but a doodle character

Piper Nynebark

Ok this is a very silly thing compared to the super cool character analysis’ a lot of people are doing in this thread BUT I just realized the cropped speech bubble in this dude’s icon lines up really well with the forum post box so it kinda looks like he’s saying whatever I’m typing.

Also while I’m still here I have recently come to the conclusion that this dude is probably Ace As Heck.

Necro'ing this thread because I've been taking some break from OCs ever since the pandemic started and...in a way I learned a lot of things while consuming other medias that I can project in my OCs better and see their flaws/what they're lacking in. I'm excited to finally draw/write them again! The only question is just when lol
