Experimental OC Profile Writing [Hiatus]

Posted 8 years, 2 months ago (Edited 5 years, 11 months ago) by Waltz

Hello all! I'm needing a bit of a writing warm-up, so I wanted to open some interesting requests.

I would like to write your character profiles! More specifically, I'd like to write some abstract interpretations or drabbles for OCs who do not yet have any written profile information.

What do I mean by abstract? Rather than simply telling a straight narrative, I enjoy writing passages that capture a brief moment, or a feeling that personifies a character—more of a mood piece, if you will. I find them to be useful jumping-off points for developing a character further, or simply useful on their own if I don't care to write much more.

A few examples of these:

[ wind ] [ destroy ] [ softness ] [ autumn ] [ dark ]

As these will be largely open to my interpretation, this is primarily intended for characters who you have little information about, such as designs you don't yet know what to do with, or other vaguely anchored OCs.

If you are interested in this, please fill out the form below:

 

Character Link: A link to the profile of the character you are requesting for.
Mood/Keywords/Theme: Is this a more somber character? A more cheerful one? Is there any particular theme you would like me to incorporate, such as "nature" or "blood" or "starlight"? Are there any specific terms you would like to see appear?
Other Details: Is this character meant to be geared towards a specific setting, or associated with another character? Have you had any ideas about them already? If so, please give me a summary in brief of this information, as well as anything that should -not- be included. (Note: This will work better with more open-ended requests, so if you're looking for something very specific, please PM me about commissions.)
Song (optional): If you have any songs in mind that could work as a theme for the character, drop me a link! It can help guide me on this, and I can incorporate it as in the profiles above. If you're interested and don't already have one in mind, I can also attempt to locate a song that the character reminds me of, but be warned that my tastes run pretty erratic, so if my general listening habits don't jive with you, you may want to skip that option ^^;
Gratuitous Japanese (Y/N): You will notice this on a number of my profiles, but I like to toss on random Japanese phrases just for fun. Let me know if you would like any of these included or not! (Note: In case you can't read them, there is no deep meaning to most of these phrases; they are included purely for flavour! If you want these I'll be happy to include a translation for you, as well!)

 

These will not be first-come, first-serve, and I can't promise that I'll get to everyone, but I'll do as many as time and inspiration allow me!

Because these are experimental and 100% free, I will not be redoing any of them, but I don't mind if you decide not to use them, or wish to modify them. You are welcome to use these for any personal, non-commercial use, so long as you do not claim original authorship. Credit is appreciated, but wholly optional!

Looking forward to writing about your characters! <3

Character Link: http://toyhou.se/319878.vega 
Mood/Keywords/Theme: Star/night, caged
Other Details: They read stars to predict coming disasters and such. It's in a fantasy setting, and their position is high in the society, but they don't wield much power
Song (optional): I change around the song frequently;; but here is the current one linked on their page: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOamqhPD3T0 
Gratuitous Japanese (Y/N): Y

Seiden

Can I request several times or is it only one per person ?

Waltz

 @kuumone Aah, such a pretty bab! I'm excited for this <3

Seiden You can request again! Just make sure to give me a bit of detail! 

Seiden

Okay, thank you! :D

Character Link: Murtagh
Mood/Keywords/Theme: he is a rather dark character, being quite hateful, without being violent. He is a shaman, then linked to spirituality. 
Other Details: he was found as a kid and adopted by a tribe of anthro lions. He does not even know his own species, he feels like he does not belong to his adoptive tribe. He is the tribe's shaman, then he pretends to be communicating with their god.
Song (optional): I still have no songs :(
Gratuitous Japanese (Y/N): not needed

LadyLatias

Oh, thank you for this opportunity~ I would be really curious to see what you come up with for this lovely lady. ^^

Character Link: http://toyhou.se/182010.annelise
Mood/Keywords/Theme: Sad, melancholy, suffered a loss, but searching for hope and happiness. Her overall theme is "bleeding heart," in her design, personality, and story.
Other Details: I have very little specific about this character, other than I imagine her in a sort of fantasy-themed world. I associate her with plants, and see her as a sort of "elf" like character.
Song (optional): "The Last Dance" - Within Temptation - https://youtu.be/YenwcI-Z1EU
Gratuitous Japanese (Y/N): No thank you~

Thank you~

Waltz

@araneko ahaha ty <333 (I wouldn't mind if you'd commented on my page, but this works too!)

Don't worry about the thread thread being a little old haha, I'm actually still working on these, I just got a bit busy over the week.

Michaelis

I more than give you an assurance of quality for Waltz! Annnd a bump

Waltz

** Opening these again! It's been a few so unfortunately I'm going to pass over most of the previously posted prompts. Feel free to repost if your info hasn't changed though! **

This seems really cool! And your writing is so pretty- Thanks for the opportunity!


Character Link: http://toyhou.se/413661.wren

Mood/Keywords/Theme: water, drowning maybe?, kind of sad and longing

Other Details: He actually has quite a bit on his profile already aha- I think it should not include thoughts of death, since that's not what bothered him at any point in time really. Umm a summary... He fell (or jumped...?) off of a bridge after his abusive ex told him to kill himself and was later revived as an angel

Song (optional): N/A

Gratuitous Japanese (Y/N): Sure~


Character Link: http://toyhou.se/292424.xeno

Mood/Keywords/Theme: a little cheerful, laid-back, lightheart

Other Details: I don't have much info for him... or any at all, really. So you can go with whatever inspires you aha

Song (optional): N/A

Gratuitous Japanese (Y/N): Sure~

I'd love one if you're interested! I have an adopt I've been dying to use but I can't really think up how to use him.

Character Link: http://toyhou.se/491855.cyrus
Mood/Keywords/Theme: I'd like him to be somewhat of a tsundere character who is kind of harsh to everyone while acting all cool, but I'd also like him to have a dark-ish past. Nothing too dark or sad, just something that might explain why he is the way he is.
Other Details: I'd like him to have relationships with the supernatural side of my characters (Alex, Matt) in some way since I always love writing stories about them. Everything else is entirely up to you.
Song (optional): N/A
Gratuitous Japanese (Y/N): Sure!

frognog

i just found these, and can i say, they are so awesome!! you are a very excellent writer indeed.

Character Link: Radish
Mood/Keywords/Theme: very strange moods, almost disconcerting. fake green grass and unnaturally blue skies. an environment seeming too perfect to the point of fakeness. nothing gory or dark though
Other Details: i'm not sure about this character yet! he doesn't know how to interact with others. he likes pastel vinyl trinkets. 
Song (optional): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZcaXikDUqU i've found this one to suit him very well!
Gratuitous Japanese (Y/N): yes please! doesn't have to be totally cohesive

thank you so so much for this!! it's definitely an honour <3

Waltz

@trumpetcat I'm glad you enjoy these!

I'm a little bit rusty on them, but the song you linked me is super cute, so I had to give it a go <3

Hope you enjoy!- http://sta.sh/011fj1j89n7l
