What role would the above OC play in a video game?

Posted 6 years, 11 months ago (Edited 5 years, 2 months ago) by Xhat

Just as the title says, this is a game where you take a look at the oc above your post and come up with the role they might play in a video game!

Here are a few things to remember while you're playing:

  • I shouldn't have to say this more than once, but please be respectful of one another.
  • Put some effort into what you're going to say. I'm sure that the other person will appreciate it!
  • If you're going to write something rather long, you may want to claim the post above you, just in case.
  • You can post once for every other three posts. If the thread hasn't moved in 24 hours, you may post before this.
  • NEW ** As of February 27th, please be sure to write more than one sentence. We want to see your imagination run!
  • NEW ** Also as of February 27th, make sure to give the character's profile a read - it helps in forming your assumption of their role! It also shows that you've thought about your answer, and everyone appreciates it. If there isn't anything to their profile and they merely have visuals, disregard this. :)

But how do I play?

  • Though this game might seem somewhat difficult, it's actually quite the opposite! 
  • All you have to do is look at the above oc and come up with their role in a video game.
  • Here are some questions you might want to ask yourself if you're stumped: "Are they a protagonist, antagonist, NPC, boss, party member, etc? What genre of video game might they belong in? Do they have any particular movesets? Do they serve a special purpose? Do they do something special in-game?"

Here's an example:

  • Person 1: What kind of video game character would characterA be?
  • Person 2: They look really buff and strong-willed, so they might be the protagonist! I could see them in some fantasy setting, like a noble knight trying to save a princess or something? They look like they could carry around really heavy weapons, and can pack a punch, so I'd say they're the heavy-hitter of the team.

 

Xerxes Spinebby

One of those cute characters that shows up once or twice in a side quest but makes the fanbase go insane because they love them

Samuel Hopkins cicada-days

Either the big bad or the NPC in charge of the hub world

Reese Greer robot-star

He strikes me as the sidekick with a tragic backstory type

BOBBLE-WOBBLE Trapezoids_Bimonthly

def main boss that got a long tragic backstory right before you kill him

or at least side boss

Hiroki Shadowzim777

I get the feeling he might be a boss type if he was huge. Possibly even a first or 2nd fight.

Would really fit in a game like Dynamite Headdy for example.

Ambie PixelatedButterfly

Hmm let me see Hiroki could fit into dark fantasy worlds-bloodhourne, dark souls etc.

As for his role, I imagine him as a charismatic vampire Lord that acts as a questionable ally or the greatest threat in game 

Prellian Sivereye AlwaysGradient

I think Ambie would be in a gacha game where you get warriors from the gacha. i imagine her being a mage of sorts, maybe a fighter.

Albion Cresil Keigora

I'm feeling he'd be a friend part of a close friend group, mby one of the more reliable and mature friends in a visual novel game .o.

 Momoi Asahi FourEyedNerd

Probably an Antihero? Have a crush on the MC? Maybe a game like Daganrompa or Persona? Keigora

 🔪Rhuna🔪 (Sona) S3L

The supporting charater

Karissa Marquez (Karissa - Telepachu Form) Sammi_is_Bampal_007

Maybe a warrior/sword fighter? I get that vibe from her.

Devi FourEyedNerd

Maybe a NPC that seems unimportant to the story, but ends up being a central focus?

I think Devi would be a guide or a shop clerk where you can buy upgrades or food! For the second option an example would be the snowdin shopkeeper from Undertale sjhd

For some reason I imagined Lapis being an NPC character in a Spyro-like game where she would give either a story quest or side quest while being in a sea-themed world
Maybe she could just be on the level somewhere or you could find her trapped, so after you save her a cutscene plays where she slaps away one small enemy that was next to the cage, making the enemy fly away cartoonishly cuz of her big size lmao
She would look cool in ps1 low-poly style hah

v - Yooo thats pretty cool x)
