Freebie Bin Discussion Board!

Posted 7 years, 11 months ago (Edited 6 years, 10 months ago) by Carnatone

A thread to discuss anything related to the Freebie Bin, where Toyhouse users can give characters they no longer feel that spark towards to new homes!

The Bin has gotten such a good reception and several regular users, and I'm super thankful it's turned out this well! Thank you to everyone who's contributed their characters, and to the people that take these characters in!

What this board is for!

-Posting your questions, comments, and concerns about the Bin!
-Discussion of possible rules and general alterations of the main Bin.

-Sharing your freebies! If you've had a good experience with anything you've gotten this is a great place to share it!
-Getting to know some of your other Bin users.
-Anything else at all directly related to the Bin!

What it isn't for!

-Posting your freebies- that's what the bin is for!
-Addressing personal concerns with a specific user or characters.
     If the issue is severe enough, please contact me directly or go to the TH staff.

Hey guys! The bin has been a bit slow, so I wanted to see if we could get a discussion going about what you've done with freebs you've gotten! I know I had a few that didn't work out and I returned to the bin, but some are alive and well in my stories! How about yours? Any drawings? Commissioned art? What did you name them? Personalities?

(Tagging my freebin friends to get the convo flowing <3 ) @yoonshi sugarworks @animecafe102 @stormythief @Skweekerz @vogelbiene HeartlessDemonAsil I know I missed a ton so when you post feel free to tag others

Personally I really connected with Dierdre, a freeb I got a while back. I think it helped because the person who was giving her away required a lot of background on what my plans for her were, and not only did it get my thinking about the character, but it helped me develop the world she belongs to a lot! Plus she's gorgeous owo

@stormythief whoa, beautiful colors! Did she come with all that art? It looks great!

here's what i've done with some of the freebies i got from both the main freebie thread and the generator freebie thread!

  • calvin was originally going to be an only child, but once i got two freebies from the generator freebie bin he ended up having a brother and a sister. and said sister ended up becoming good friends with another freebie i got from there, and cal's brother became best friends with yet another freebie from there, who was ANOTHER freebie's ex-boyfriend... and one of her brothers is- you guessed it- another freebie from the thread, and he gets on well with another freebie from the generator freebie thread! whew... all of those freebies were made by the same user, too :o
  • one freebie ended up being a deity in my character universe thing! 
  • one freebie i got from the freebie bin was a mermaid. i haven't written much in her profile yet, but she ends up getting in some sort of love triangle with two boys who both just so happen to also be freebies i got from the same user.
  • one demon i got from the freebie bin ended up being the one responsible for bringing haimon back to life... oh, and guess who hai's sister and one of his brothers are? that's right - two of the freebies i mentioned earlier! (specifically, these two because i've already mentioned a lot lmao)

and there's more apart from the ones i've mentioned in this post!

SuperStar2361 that's so cool how you've connected so many of them! I've been working on that with my OC's and adopts in general lately... it's fun to do that because it makes you think about how many people you know indirectly xD

I got 2 arts of this bab I got from @yoonshi a while back!! Her & her girlfriend ;w; theyre in a mideavel setting, and Hespe likes to come and watch Kelli perform for the court, and sometimes they just sit in the garden together, and Hespe tells Kelli abt her adventures, and Kelli will sing for Hespe, and sometimes they sing together, and tbh theyre only rlly good friends rn, but someday.... they will be precious girlfriends, i love them to bits.

I got this bab from Heart-Drop a few months ago? I can't remember haha. He's so cute! I'm still developing his story & personality but I've gotten quite a lot of art of him! Well.. Not a lot, but some. If I had money I would buy tons of art of him omg ;;

@octomo what a cutie! I don't know who the icon is by, but that art style is fantastic <3

Waltz

@octomo Aah! I love all the art you've gotten for her, that's super super cute!

I'm really glad she's gotten such a good home with you <3
