throwing my little freak out into the world

Name: Casper "Clutch" Sinclair

Gender: Transmasc

Pronouns: He/they/it

Sexuality: Bisexual

Allegiances: formerly Hyperion

Occupation: used to be an engineer developing bioweapons. Now he's ✨️unemployed✨️

Residence: wherever Zer0 and Axton are tbh

Time period: After the main events of Borderlands 2, but before BL3

Summary:

Clutch is a weird little guy. He's the grandson of Alma Harren, which is the whole reason he worked for Hyperion (and also why he quit. Oh and he stole her cat.)

When Eridium was first discovered, Clutch "fucked around and found out" with it, which is why he has purple eyes. Yes, he ate the shiny purple rock. Hyperion's greatest minds really put to use here

Clutch eventually got sick of all the pressure on him as a Hyperion employee, and he just... quit. Somehow he ended up meeting Zer0, who introduced him to Axton... and now the guy has not one, but TWO boyfriends. (There is actual lore on how Clutch met them but it's messy and probably doesn't make sense)

Tags to use: any you want, also probably OC x canon

Want to be featured: sure!!

Anyways I hope u guys like my stupid little guy. Bonus drawing of him and Zer0 because Yes

I will probably regret this later for unknown reasons so I am just going to hit the submit button #YOLO

Name: Tobin Strongfork

Gender: Male

Pronouns: He/Him

Allegiances: Atlas, and/or probably anyone who hires him to work

Mbti: infp (he js like me fr)

Occupation: Electrical commissioning engineer !!

Residence: Promethea – living with Rhys

Time period: Borderlands 3 (but comes from tftbls)

Summary: Tobin started off meeting his two best friends (Vaughn and Rhys) in college on promethea. At first Tobin was kind of an asshole but super chilled out and they all ended up at Hyperion together. Tobin kept to himself there as a janitor as he didn't want to deal with people and cleaning never really bugged him having come from Pandora, During his time away from home he actually lost his brother so he never found a reason to go back.

Following the events of tales Tobin and Rhys end up dating after having a very strange "not friends but not lovers" relationship for a long time. Tobin helps Rhys rebuild atlas here and there while also going off to have his own adventures. He starts working with several other people, learning skills of better survival, and finally being able to follow his passion in engineering.

Eventually they get married and stay married

(wooowwwweeee!)

Tags to use: fine with whatever? (I don't remember what all the tags were)

The pictures on the left are borderlands 3 and the two on the right are tales from the borderlands!

Name: Nita-Hushaya

Gender: Two spirit

Pronouns: He/Him

Sexuality: Bisexual

Personality: Pragmatic, cold, a bit irritable 

Residence: Pandora

Time period: post bl3 

Summary: Originally from Thrace, Nita-Hushaya’s life has been constantly uprooted. Hiim, Nita’s family, and community constantly moving to avoid getting caught in the crossfire by various corperations mining and military exploits. When Dahl began to push them out of their newest home Nita decided he would revolt against them, his revolt failed his community seperated and him and other people who revolted with him where arrested for disrupting Dahl’s mining operations. Nita was then sent to Pandora to carry out his sentence as one of Dahl’s prison laborer.  When Dahl abandoned the planet Nita decided he’d go off on his own instead of joining any of the bandit gangs or clans hoping to find anyone of his friends and family from his past. He was luck enough to find some people from his past his cousin Isi being one of them, Nita and Isi tried to find a place to call home but they both seemed to fall back into having thier lives uprooted once Hyperion started their colonial efforts to search for the vaults.  Nita having watched Atlas, Dahl, Hyperion, And then the COV causing so much destruction he couldn’t help but feel like vault hunting was just a foolish pursuit for an empty promise for treasure and power when all thats in them are monsters, and in that pursuit it ended with more misery and strif for people who where not involved and just trying to survive. To him the vaults either need to be destroyed or be left alone, Nita also believes that the corperations are colonial leeches and that they need to answer for all the pain they��ve caused all for corperate greed. Nita hopes to help people create self sufficant communites who can defend themselves if need be if anything like what the mega corperations have done before starts to happen again  Nita takes on the alias of Epimethius, wanting to be a sort of figure for people who feel like they’ve been after thoughts after getting caught up in both search for the vaults and corperate interests. 

Want to be featured on the banner: yes!

additional things: Nita-Hushaya is Choctaw, he speaks Chahta Anumpa and prefers speaking it.

on april fools day we should all change our icons to this picture of chet smith

[borderlands-oc-hq]

here's a "joke OC" I made for April Fool's, the joke got lost in translation though.

A Lilith lookalike made from Steele (BL1), Lilith (BL2+3) and Lor (BL3). Since both Steele and Lor were at some point in development early iterations of Lilith, I wanted to play around with that idea

as you can tell, it's only funny if you know the context, so it didn't really fit with the theme... I do like how she ended up looking though, might make her into a proper OC someday

[borderlands-oc-hq]

How did I miss this 😭

[borderlands-oc-hq]

i herd u liek ocs :3 @borderlands-oc-hq

hewwo this is my oc sp4rkl3 :3 they love everything that is nice and happy and hates smelly bad stuff and they are a 100% good and pure and unproblematic bot. :3c (please note all reported incidents of a correlation between luxury truck vehicles and turbo yachts mysteriously exploding in their presence is completely unfounded and has yet to be proven in a court of law.)

ummm 🥺👉👈 here is my contribution to the OC event

[borderlands-oc-hq]

meet jer! although he wouldn’t be keen on meeting YOU but who cares right?

[borderlands-oc-hq]

Officially sharing my OC Angie on this blog, she's a hottie with a pea sized brain whose entire personality is "don't worry, be happy". The lack of care about her future is definitely something to look out for, especially since she's unemployed. Wait, so how does she get her money? Well, that's a secret only her and her bestie, a skag named Sugar, knows 🤫

Here she's probably tagging up the streets of Lectra City with some positive "live, laugh, love" bullshit.

Some more renders of her and Sugar under cut.
