Share designs with no bios + give/get some ideas!

Posted 2 years, 6 months ago (Edited 2 years, 6 months ago) by crayola_crow

I've seen lots of threads around sharing and giving ideas for unnamed characters, so I thought I'd take that idea a step further and do bios! If this already exists just let me know, but so far I haven't seen anything too similar!

So, you designed a character and ended up liking them enough that you wanted to keep them, or maybe you claimed or purchased a design a little impulsively because you thought they were pretty, or any other reasoning, and now you've got a character who looks nice, but is lacking a bio? Maybe you do have an idea, but you're just not sure how to make it work or flesh it out enough to do anything with it? Or maybe you have too many ideas to choose from and just can't decide what would fit them best? Or you've just run out of fresh stories to give them?

Well, you're in luck! Leave your characters who need some more fleshing out, give any ideas that you might be considering or anything specific you're looking for help with, and give an idea or two - or as many as you'd like! - to someone else! Doesn't necessarily have to be the person above you, but that could be a good way to keep the thread going! Just make sure everyone gets something, and you can help as many people as you'd like! Perhaps add at the top of your comment if you haven't gotten any ideas yet or if you still need more, or just edit to say you don't need / want any more! Of course, you can also just leave a character or leave some ideas, you don't have to do both! And come back as often as you'd like!

It doesn't just have to be bios you're looking for, you could get suggestions on anything you can think of! Names, maybe you're stuck on pronouns, stories, personality, any other characters of yours they should have relationships with, some theme songs, likes and dislikes, ideas for a moodboard / aesthetic, a suggestion for codes to use for them, there's really no limit (that is, unless something comes up that I need to add, but that's just when / if something happens!)! And you don't have to add anything specific that you're looking for, if you've got nothing and just want anything to get them started, just ask for that!


Here's a little list of some things you might wanna include in your comment, just to make it easier, but no pressure to specifically use this like a form!: Character link / post ic, what you're looking for for them, do you still need / want more ideas, and some ideas for someone else!


I'll give a couple characters of my own as I go through them, I might occasionally add, remove, or otherwise change them up as I feel like it, so feel free to give some ideas for whoever I've got posted at any time!

I'll start with Adrian and Annabelle, I've been making more art for them lately but they're still in need of some general ideas, there's really not much going on in terms of development there. Anything you can think of, feel free to suggest!

I could use some coding suggestions for Lysander, I'm not too sure what would fit him but I'd love something with at least an image or two, preferably around the size of his ref or any other art! Also perhaps some coding for Jazz, something to fit the cafe / music theme?

Some names!!

- the ghost Shepard 

• Marco 

• wool harvester

- the followers

• the groups 

• the innocents 

And here's a lore idea for the ghost Shepard!! 

What if he went insane because he keeps thinking he's seeing wolves coming to eat the sheep but it's really just his head so he burnt the barn to ' protect ' the sheep 

-------

For ic I would like some lore/backstory ideas!!

-Nea_bun- Molt is cute!!! 

Maybe it's the outfit, but he gives me English Major vibes? It would be an interesting contrast for him to love books but also having to be careful not to ruin them bc he's fire!

He could also, instead, be a big fan of history: if he's really wise it could be in part because he's studied history and knows the patterns and such!!

please please help me give this guy a name. maybe some lore, too? all i know is hes a demon and smug ty

Vallory Sachs CometTheMountainLion

Here’s Vallory. I recently got her. Lf lore and a backstory. NSFW WARNING

Here are a few random dislike ideas: spiders, flying, heights, judgmental people, loud-flushing toilets.

 Morrigan PolarisStorm

Considering their skill with plants and love of farming, you could possibly make them a farmer/trader in a village? I feel like they'd mainly grow flowers and trade them on their own, and/or make dyes and trade those as well! This would also make sense with their hobby, since dyes would be important to a dexter like them!


Here's Morrigan, one of my characters from my new project! I am mainly looking for some personality ideas. There's also some blank fields on her profile if you want to give me some ideas for those as well! Just keep in mind that I'm not going to guarantee that I'll use all of the ideas given, depending on multiple story-related factors. Thanks!

I am very late, but that's great, thank you! I'll be sure to write it down (eventually)!

 E105 / Eios celestiials

PlagueWing (I decided to read some of the worldbuilding to get a better vibe for her and her world! Off topic but I really like the worldbuilding ideas and her design, I hope some of these ideas at least work-)

Hmm, for some reason she kind of gives me sarcastic vibes? Not necessarily mean, but often speaks in a blunt tone and whatnot... perhaps the process of drawing out her power has left her more bitter than she was before. Still, she does have a kinder side but hesitates to show it (for what it's worth, her kinder side would show more in actions than words, as she's likely to retain her initial sarcastic attitude first) and just because she seems sarcastic on the surface, it doesn't mean that she doesn't know what she's talking about. In fact, one could say that she's wise due to her experiences with the world, war, and other things.

Oh, because her power is a "birth power" her harpy form is significantly stronger and more durable than others with similar powers; she can also stay in the air for longer and carry loads of a certain size. 


For the person below me: my characters live in a fantasy world that also takes place in modern times, so keep that in mind! I also imagine Eios' pronouns to be he/they, you can use E105 or Eios in your post. Other than that, go wild!

Edit: No worries, it doesn’t!! Thank you, this gave me a bunch of ideas for him bejfbsjd-

Axiom Mereka

celestiials 

Eios is very into the more fantasy aspects of his world; they like the fun hairstyles, interesting plants and unique clothing the culture brings. He spent a lot of time and effort putting together his closet and room decor to fit the aesthetic and was really proud of it. However, fantasy plants, no matter how good they look, are a dangerous interest. Their unpredictable nature and largely unreaserched biology meant that there were plenty of harmful and potentially deadly deseases one could catch from them. Eios wasn't an exception.

One pretty flower he collected to put in his new vase turned out to be extremely toxic. Eios lost consciousness when they picked it up, and only awoke in the hospital. The toxins paralyzed their arms and legs from touching the flowers, some even got in his ears when he fell. The limbs had to be amputated and replaced with new, mechanical ones. The surgery went great and everything worked, but Eios wasn't stoked about the look of them. He still likes fantasy ornaments and trinkets, but no longer wears fantasy clothing, as he believes it looks out of place next to his hands. Eios also became way more cautious around plants, especially flowers, which he's still salty about because he likes flowers to this day and would prefer to not be scared of them.

I hope this doesn't clash with any lore you have lmao


As for my character, the only info he has is that he treats the water parts of his body as portable aquariums and the little starfish dude is his pet. He isn't part of any universe, so you can go wild.


Edit: Oh that's all really cute, I'll def use it! Thank you!
