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

I'll also drop this one as another option, she's very undeveloped, I generally have her as private but I'll set her to public for now:

Character Link: Anti

Mood/Keywords/Theme: Another more lonesome one. Pretty dark and twisted in her beliefs and morals, she's one of the primary antagonists in her story.

Other Details: Left-hand of the king, the behind the scenes assassin, one who does the things which shouldn't be seen by the public eye, ect. She goes past her orders though in belief that what she is doing is good for the king. No clues about anything else.

Song (optional): I've got one song in her playlist so far here but I'd love to hear your suggestions!

Gratuitous Japanese (Y/N): Same as the last one, Sure~

//I have another one but I don't want to bug you with too many options - also I realized I probably should have just done both in one post sorry about that

Mood/Keywords/Theme: Micah is very nervous and seeks solace in religion. a good theme for him would be "marble" or "candlelight"!

Other Details: I had an idea that he was raised in a church in old France (similar time period to Les Miserables if that makes sense haha). maybe something bad happened to him in the church when he got older? idk just tragic in general!

Song (optional): unfortunately the only version of the song I could find has totally unrelated pictures showing as a music video of sorts but here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ctUZ-kPpI8 ! the song is called Swans, and the song seems beautiful and lonely to me.

Gratuitous Japanese (Y/N): I'll have to pass on this one since he's French hehe

aah hoping you're still open for these! your writing style is really nice!

Mood/Keyword/Theme: Maybe something innocent, as she's a kindergartner?? She has trouble showing her emotions and getting along with other students, so maybe it can revolve around that.

Other details: It really doesn't need to be mentioned in the writing, but she's adopted~

Song: Hm~ ^^ I'm not really sure for this character.

Gratuitous Japanese: Yes please!
