i want to respond to stuff but i slept in and now i gotta work so time to drop off a q and run
Q91. Which OC of yours needs the biggest hug?
Listen, there's nothing I love more than answering random questions about my OCs and seeing other people answer random questions about their OCs. Conveniently, I also love coming up with random questions and asking them. So, hey, why not make it a daily event? In this thread I'll post a question every day, all of them related to OCs! Sometimes it'll be about your feelings about your OCs ("who's your favorite oc?" or "who was your first oc?") and sometimes it'll be questions asked toward your OCs themselves ("what are your ocs' favorite colors?" or "would your ocs rather fight one horse-sized duck or 100 duck-sized horses?"). You can answer in-character or out of character, answer for multiple characters or just one, whatever you want!
I'll try to ask these early in the day, and you're always welcome to answer any ones that you've missed! Feel free to answer as many as you want at once; just be sure to label which question you're answering! I also have a huge list of questions waiting in the wings, but if you have any questions you'd like to see asked feel free to message me and I'll credit and ping you if I end up using your question!
In affiliation with necessaryocthings, run by reinapepiada!

Q1. Who was the first OC you made a profile for on Toyhouse? Why them?
The first OC I made a profile for here was Dicro Corrune! He's the most well-known OC of mine amongst my friends (most of my friends don't have a lot of profiles up yet but he'd have the most links), is probably my most important character overall even though I have like 50 different OC universes and he's only connected to a few, and if he's not my favorite OC overall he's pretty darn close. There's a lot of me in him, too, so I feel like putting him up first provides a decent insight into both the kind of person I am and the kind of characters you'll probably see from me. Plus he has the most images, the most writing, is the most fun to RP with, and is one of my oldest active OCs... it was an obvious choice for me!
Q91. Which OC of yours needs the biggest hug?
i need to answer the rest of the questions i missed. one day..... but not for now bc college is suffering. ANYWAY, Nikolai needs some hugs. Really bad. Poor guy's been through a lot of shit and he just wants to see his son and niece again even though he also really wants to die and/or try to make up for everything that's happened. Tbh though he would give hugs to Octavia, who's a donut who secretly needs hugs even if she insists everything's fine. He feels awful about what happened, and she would probably insist all is fine, but let's be honest the pain is definitely there even though he's not at fault.
this probably doesn't even fit the context of the question but, Bug. do it just hug her, she is an incredibly loving pup and gives lots of cuddles especially if someone really needs comfort. small pup tries her very best
Q92. How do your OCs handle alcohol?
listen i could answer this in detail and i will someday when i have more time because i have a lot to say, but for now all you need is this epic tale of this one time dicro got drunk (feat. special guest 2cro who wisely does not get drunk)
long story short you should not drink (or consume anything, for that matter) when your body is just a flesh husk full of soul juice because it does some things to you
Q93. What do you do with your OCs? Are you writing a story with them, making a game about them, creating a webcomic about them, or do you RP with them at all?
A lot of things, really! When I originally started making OCs, they were for stories I'd start but never finish. Once I got into RPing the vast majority of my characters for a while were created to be RPed, with their stories/universes serving as big RP plots. Now it's sort of back to the way things were, where my OCs start as characters in some kind of story that'll never be written and I'll probably just RP with them at best. I mean ideally everything would get its own anime but,
Some stories I specifically envision as being games instead of something that's just written or drawn, though. RPG Hell was obviously envisioned as an RPG, Poly Hell and (shockingly) VN are both intended to be VNs, etc.
Either way, even if I never work on the actual stories/games for any of my universes, I still think about them all the time and will RP with whichever one I feel fits a given thread best!
Q93. What do you do with your OCs? Are you writing a story with them, making a game about them, creating a webcomic about them, or do you RP with them at all?
I was planning on writing a simple story with my viesse nerds. it was originally going to be vastly different from how it is now, i don't even remember what old viesse used to be like anymore! I can tell you one thing though it sure as hell wasn't what it is now! Nowadays Viesse generally gives off etrian odyssey-like vibes and i'm glad it does tbh
Crys is basically a paper mario fc that was left over from shitty fanfic days, and Isoprene can confirm this tbh. At this point Crys and her best friend are basically just your average teenagers at this point i guess??? I guess they can be called regular if they're giving random strangers arsenious cookies, having vine wars, constantly breaking their phones, somehow never being broke, and probably also dying enough times for them to be considered regulars in limbo??? hey look these are just headcanons ok. gg i trailed off a long way there
Missingno and Luca, they're actually from a nuzlocke I'm working on, haha... they're both important characters but holy shit i accidentally gave them so much backstory and i don't regret it at all tbh
i will definitely rp with any of my ocs! except for the man that affected so many people's lives and tried to commit genocide. there is no way in hell i'm getting anywhere near that guy.
Q94. Do you have any OCs whose designs you just can't get down?
Loads of them! For better or worse, though, that doesn't apply too much to most of the characters I have here, since having a character uploaded here usually means I have art of them which usually means I have a proper reference for them! Pretty much all of my OCs who aren't on Toyhouse fall under this category though ;__;
Orange is an offender, which is weird because he's supposed to be pretty simple. His hair, face, body, etc. I have down pat, but I always struggle with his outfit. I know he has a cool smiley face tie that he got from Hadris, but that's about it. He probably wears some kind of suit but... what does it look like? What color are things? Does he try to be as fancy as possible to impress Hadris, or is he pretty casual (to impress Hadris)?
Lausac has also been a struggle for me; I have a really clear vision of what he looks like in my head, but every time I try to draw him everything falls apart and I can't make his design look right. I always have issues deciding what the bottom half of his design looks like, because in my head I dunno it's just kind of a blur so everything's cool?? But then I try to draw something or just think of it more solidly and I'm like "wait no, this is weird". Doesn't help that I'm not really great at designing cool Tron-esque bodysuit things, so it's all detailed and rad in my head and then I try to draw it and I'm like... where do all of these lines go?? Where do they come from???? help
I also have some issues with Zhirael, namely whether or not to keep his cool gradient hair and deciding if I should change his horns to a cooler shape. I have a hard time designing fancy and regal attire, and while I think I pulled it off I also want to change things constantly just because his design is so complicated but I also want art of him but I also don't want to make people draw him and his Huge Feathery Wings etc etc
also i can never decide on a default outfit for umbra... too many cool kinds of coats to choose from
omg i slept in way too late aaaa
Q95. Which of your OCs get the most character development throughout their story?
no time to answer stuff gotta get this out here gotta go fast
happy dicro's birthday easter, everyone!! i got a box cutter, staples, a toothbrush, and band aids. it's been an exciting day (also candy but those are the important things). time for a truly cheerful and innocent question:
Q96. Which OC of yours has killed the most people, if applicable? If none of your OCs have killed before, who would be the most likely to?
Memen has kiiiiinda destroyed Hadris' empire more than once, and said empire has a massive number of people. To be fair, Hadris slaughtered her home planet first, so she was just trying to return the favor!
Hellscream digs killing and wreaking havoc, but he can't really hope to match Memen or Hadris' body counts. Hasn't lived long enough for that. Laejizhar and Yenzhal are both worth mentioning, given that their respective arts involve a lot of death.
2cro might have the biggest body count, actually, but no one's sure how long he's been alive and even less sure of how many lives he's taken...
There are. A lot of OCs of mine who have done killing, but those are the ones who've done the most!
Q96. Which OC of yours has killed the most people, if applicable? If none of your OCs have killed before, who would be the most likely to?
oh man. Boris would take the cake if the body count was because he killed them all himself. Unfortunately, most of the corpses are the results of the actions he decided to take. Doesn't mean he doesn't have some blood on his hands, though. Now, Nikolai (although unwillingly) has had to actually kill a lot of people on Boris' orders. He still has nightmares about all of it. Missingno's piled up a decent body count as well, though his reasons were... well, he killed an entire team of scientists because they kidnapped and nearly killed Luca with their experiments.
