Disclaimer: Each OC will be in a universe where they would want to smash you if given the option and/or are less awful than they would be in their original universe. Pros:

Her body is soft, she has a lot of muscle with a good layer of fat. Optimal cuddles.

She is strong. Free snacks from the vending machine... mostly because she picked it up and shook it.

Out of the Vactyr, she's one of the few within reasonable human size range.

You will get a feast afterwards.

Cons:

She weighs 1500lbs, so you're either on top or getting death by snu-snu.

It will take a lot of patience and dedication to get close to smashing. She demands respect and tender love every step of the way.

Her hooves and horns are sharp and might have some traces of blood in them. Same with her teeth.

Neutral:

Vocatia is so mom-coded. And, I'll do links for the spicier OCs, but Vo's so vanilla and is set up like you'd expect out of a mammalian cis female.

OC Flower asks: Jasmine and Daisy (any OC)?

I havent talked much about Ex, despite how much he shows up in the first book and how involved he is in the Revolution and it happening.

Jasmine - If your OC had a tumblr blog, what would their URL be?

It'd be something like flower-and-condoms or lily-lube. It'd be an aethetic blog that focuses on sexuality and flowers with a bit of ship-repair, grease, and like bar fighting aesthetics. All still with a bit of a romantic lense.

Very transman energy and that lovely mix of hyper-confident masculinity that isn't toxic.

Daisy - What inspired you to create your OC?

So, there are two major kidnappings of Vocatia where she ends up almost getting guillotined. The first actually happens in "Friends", the second doesn't have a planned story (yet), but has been written in other universe. I have a habit of naming background characters kind of jokey names/numbers, so Hex, Ex, and Drex were named F20, F69, and F66 (Four 20, 69 as sex number, and F is the sixth letter, so 666). I decided to take these three and develop them further. Due to how the serial numbers worked there, I determined that they were siblings but F20 was from a different litter and thus older. However, due to descriptions within the text, F20 and F69 looked like twins so I ran with it.

Thus, they all look very similar. Same pelt colours, same horn shape, same crest shape, and similar eye colour (thus similar "what would eventually become Flow colour"). The main difference was that Drex was bigger and at that time Ex's horn was described as broken. I took this as a challenge to make three characters that were similar but obviously each their own character.

I took some inspiration from their memey numbers and a bit from their original description:

Starting with Ex, he was determined to be the "hot-blooded" one of the trio. He's quick to anger and quick to fight, but he doesn't hold grudges much. He's very much a slut, both using it as a form of bonding, a way to have fun, and a way to barter (the whole morale-system). He absolutely views fighting as a way of flirting, but that's somewhat normal with his species. He's also good with the ladies in the brooding halls. Some of them even sneaking him into their inner chambers (so their typical living areas/common areas where males aren't allowed) to hang out and hook up again. (On their own terms). … Let's just say that there are a lot of younger red-horned Vactyr now.

This is also how Ex originally got involved with the Revolution - he heard about Vocatia from the other broodmares. This is also how he knows the ballpark timeframe of when it's going to happen.

To keep the other two short: Hex was named after a strain of weed, but she's always been the more brooding of the three. She's just as hot-headed as Ex, but she holds a grudge and strikes hard versus Ex's immediate reaction that blows off. She was a house servant that used her position to transfer with her brothers. Drex is level-headed and has a little more common-sense out of the two. He's been under Torque for years and recently became the pilot of the Strix Stryker.

@redjaybird replied to your post “Vocatia, while getting her nails done: “Ya can’t call yourself a hero…”

“Ok but the spoon thing Was hilarious”

Vocatia, nonchalantly: “You say hilarious, I say unnecessary.”

Blog 2/4 is almost ready, it... just requires some pictures and screenshots.

"Gold is in, darlin'. I told ya ya couldn't handle me."

[thralls-for-alls]

Pool-Side Thoughts

Solus's light scattered rainbows across the transparent environmental shielding.  Vocatia watched the Rogues and her Sons play "nice" in the pool from behind the shade of her lip-rimmed glasses.  Yeah, the snake and older clone seemed to be taking turns tossing 'Z and Shayne around like a shark's pool toy, but the gleeful giggling ensured to all the lounging thrall and Guyota around that there was little need to get involved.

Vocatia’s crest rings jingled from the happy shivers running up and down her spine, only the brave plastic slats that held up her bulk managing to keep the noise from turning annoying.  

“Just the other day, after I’d spent the day rustlin’ up some of the rent from the more stubborn neighbours,” Vo explained continuing her idle conversation with Reyna.  “And I was dead tired.  The first thin’ I see is my kitchen wrecked.  Chunks of fruit everywhere. flour across the counter, on the floor, across the sink, just dustin’ everythin’.  I was shocked, dismayed even.   ‘Til I heard Gnoll tryin’ to shush Forty-nine while they were hidin’ out in the dinin’ room.  Poked me head in the door ta see the most lavish feast sittin’ upon the dinin’ table.”  She guffawed as she watched the primal in question try to wrestle his older brother into the pool though gnawing on his horn.  “It’s still one of the best meals I’d ever had.  Sweet ham and pie-apple rings, mashed potatoes, and several other thin’s too: well worth gettin’ Ricky to scrub down the kitchen afterwards.”

Reyna hid her twinge of jealousy behind a sip of beer, the glass still frosted.  The two thrall fell into domestic bliss as soon as they locked eyes.  “Yeah, the best meals tend to come with the biggest messes,” Reyna agreed, setting the drink down beside her.  The glass glided over the ring of condensation that dripped down over the thin layer of ice.  “Shayne attempted to make everyone peanut-butter and banana pancakes once.  We still find batter drops in the kitchen, but those were some damned good pancakes.” 

Pendles launched Shayne higher than before, a fresh shrieking giggle pricking everyone’s ears and drawing their gaze. In the air, they flipped to flop belly first into the water with a loud smack.  Shayne resurfaced, catching their breath in time to playfully shove Pendles as revenge for their stinging stomach.

“Ach, a few bits of batter concrete ain’t that much of a cost,” Vocatia chuckled, shaking off the water with a wiggle of her gold-tipped hooves.  “‘Less it came wit’ ants.  Can’t imagine what they’re like out here, but they’re tough little shits on Tempest.”

Another splash leapt over the pool’s edge as Foxtrot tripped backwards and dropped TZ.  Rictus snickered from his floating octopoid ring; the dark tentacle slithered back under his skin under the cover of the water.

“... you know, I haven’t seen any since the blueberry’s taken over the kitchen.” 

[snek-kakashi]

More Vocatia.  I’m surprised that I never posted more of her over here.

[kashacreates]

Thank you for the tag!  I’m late for Tunesday, but I still have several Tuesday hours, lmao. 

Dancing With Your Ghost - Sasha Sloan

I spent half of the song internally picking up and shoving both Ludwig and Bravo into the hole made by the narrative, and ended up picking Ludwig. He regrets letting his work ruin his marriage and misses Bram dearly.  He definitely has some sort of ritual of remembrance involving flames and Emilu.  In addition I realized he would not be able to dance like he used to.  Ludwig went from 

to

Those forelegs do not bend the same way as his old ones. FU would try to help him, but she’s quite short compared to him and not that great of a dancer. 

Locked - Weshley Arms

This has strong Bravo to Chassie vibes.  She’s confused by her feelings for him and is low-key pissed she cares about someone again.  He in no way forces or pressures her into anything, but she’s hooked.  Her anger comes from a mix of her desire for self-destruction, want of isolation, and also to be loved again. 

She doesn’t know how to express it. 

Live like Legends - Ruelle

I’mma keep this short and sweet: Vocatia. 

Bonus Song!

Be Kind - Halsey & Marshmallow

Chassie trying his damnedest to get Bravo to trust him and let her know it’s safe to open up to him.  She’s allowed to love and be loved and that is okay. He won’t judge her habit of sitting in the sea monkey tank or kicking over trash cans. 

Happy Tunes-day!! 🎶

Disclaimer: Each OC will be in a universe where they would want to smash you if given the option and/or are less awful than they would be in their original universe.

Pros:

While he's a Hirudian Warlord, he looks the other way for people he cares about and will ignore orders to protect them.

He's very protective of his loved ones too.

He's a seasoned stud and knows how to handle himself for his size.

He's not used to being tolerated, let alone liked, so even the smallest kindness wins him over.

Cons:

He is a Hirudian Warlord and still deep in that propaganda sauce. This led to him getting Vocatia's neck on the chopping block (she survives obvs)

The chip on his shoulder has its own orbit.

Starts off with an alcoholism problem, but it gets better when he gets cursed.

Btw, he has a contagious immortality curse after a point.

Neutral:

The man's 10ft 2in tall and doesn't have a lot of body fat (The diet in the service is very lean and famously tastes terrible. Then the curse low-key freezes him in that slightly malnourished state).

Spicy details here

[kashacreates]

15, 16, and 19 for an OC that's currently taking up a lot of brainspace.

( @angsty-prompt-hole )

I'm gonna do three OCs for the price of one. Torque, TZ, and Rictus.

15. Describe their computer. Is it a sticker covered laptop? A high-tech gaming computer?

Torque: Standard-issue Hirudian Comms device that was modified for a non-Liberated user. Essentially, a military-grade handheld tablet that is appropriately sized for a 10ft tall Vactyr with huge hands.

TZ: Pretty much anything he touches that has internet and allows him to interface with it is now his computer, but his main one is his Extended Duration Cloaking Device. It's been highly modified (by him) to not only render him invisible, but also allow him to surf the web, steal data, and have obnoxious RGB lighting.

Rictus: It's a black-market comms device that has narration turned on and enables text-to-speech. While still tablet-like, it's essentially a Nokia or flip phone compared to the holotech that is common. He's not a huge fan of it, evidenced by its deep scores of claw marks that he could easily fix. But, he needed some way to message Vocatia when he's finished a job.

16. Let’s look at their search history. What are the last 5 things they searched?

Torque: "Can cameras miss an entire person", "I can see it, cameras can't, why?", "hangover cures", "hangover cures involving Liberated Soylent Paste", "how to make friends"

TZ: "Poison Control near Hirud?", "Is void corruption contagious?", "It's normal to see your dead friends alive and well sometimes?", "bulk inexpensive comms", "lethal levels of holo-fluid and batteries??"

Rictus: (doesn't search often, so this is more "what he would search") "is void corruption contagious", "recipes consisting of only condiments", "how big is too big", "grounding techniques", "bird seed"

19. What are their most frequently visited websites?

Torque: Definitely Service-related stuff. So wherever bounties are posted, messages between Officers, and the like.

TZ: Absolutely Holotube. Got to keep up-to-date on trends and popular challenges!

Rictus: Oddly, also Holotube. Mostly because it's easy for him to get to thanks to TZ.

When the murder of an [ocean.prince] disturbs the tentative peace of the Planet Oshveperthe, two people at the heart of the crime must take their places in the chaos which ensues.

To save his sister from the machinations of their Sociopathic father, Johann Avendari, of the [Blacksmiths] and the [Sky-elves], must convince a Ranger he tried to kill to help him.

Leah Cheretesha, Grand-daughter of the Green [Hellion], is content to let a Sky-Elven foe weather the storm of his own creation, until a secret is unearthed which forces her to help the slumbering fool.

Can the two settle their differences and work together in order to save the life of a person they both love?

-Polyamorous Characters.

-Spicy scenes here and there.

-God-Systems and Sky-Elves.

[kashacreates]

I have:

Golden queen mama-bear recovering from trauma by kicking her oppressor’s asses.  Scarily strong.  

Soft-spoken dysmorphic surgeon who is scarily good at her job. Secretly intimidating by never backing down.

Lost and hurting punk whose prickly exterior and toxic tendencies doesn’t work. Complicated relationship with motherhood.

Ancient ruler who enjoys her science experiments and forgets which kids are hers.  

Lesbian stripper who is using the tips to pay her way through her xeno-biology master’s degree. A headliner and helpful advisor to Vocatia.

Girlfriend of Lesbian stripper who is also a lesbian stripper who is an accomplished photographer and hikes across many planets for the best shots.

Morally bankrupt surgeon with a dark sense of humor and questionable relationship with ethics.

Amazing pilot and sensible bedrock of the team; always tired mama who just wants to have her coffee in peace while being a baby jungle gym.  Is a tailor in her free time.

Big mama robotics engineer who fights on the frontlines.  Probably physically strongest Delphtean. Sweet like a Kindergarten teacher and doesn’t mind being a baby jungle gym.

Big titty goth girlfriend who’d stab you in the back for a corn chip. Looks calm on the surface, but intense once you get to know her. Ridiculously smart and planning the downfall of the Hirudian empire.

I need more women

I already have

a cute studious one(Elayna)

a knight who hunts like Elayna studies(Vera)

a rebellious queen(Edrei)

a beautiful, memeful, sarcastic princess (Illyera)

a rebelliously sarcastic pirate who can kiss with a fist(Timi)

Astrea

But I need more. perhaps:

a manipulative mother/aunt figure

more knights

a corrupt researcher just as bad as Damian. maybe she can take over tormenting subjects when Damian can't stomach it.

a bard who flirts like elijah, with the voice of an angel

idk. I am open to hearing tropes people like ᕙ( ͡◉ ͜ ʖ ͡◉)ᕗ

[kingdomofclones]

Starters, Come Get Your Starters!

Hit that heart and specify a muse in the replies if you want a particular one (Pick from Vocatia, Torque, TZ, FU, Rictus). Otherwise, I'll pick for you.

[pendles-is-friendles]

📂📂📂📂📂

Canon Fodder: Accepting! And Here!

📂 Vocatia’s drink specialty is jello shots.  She flavours her own jello and liquors/liqueurs with fresh fruits and sugars; they’re a whole cocktail in one jiggly mouthful.

📂 Torque is native Pandoran, he developed his psycho-ness earlier than the miners during the Headstone Mine incident.  Other locals attribute it to hanging around Eridian ruins too much and he had solid support from his community until Dahl came around.

📂 Rictus used to play games like Tiny Bird Garden on his Ech0, but he can’t anymore due to his blindness. However, jump scares are still super effective on him because there’s an audio cue attached.

📂 Rictus’ other sight is literally just a quick photo of what’s going on within tentacle reach.  There is a 3D aspect to this, but anything he wouldn’t be able to see from his position is dark.  (so like, if a person is standing in front of him and hiding something behind their back, he can see them but what’s in their hands would be obscured by shadow)

📂 Torque has a fondness for cats and cat-like beings (like Jabbers seem to be).  While he loves all animals, he still has to eat so he’ll eat Skag, Stalker, Bullymongs, etc.  And being pestered by those can set him off.  But, he’ll never eat or attack a Jabber or other feline-based animal.

[thesinfulbat]

Invasive asks!: Accepting!

@chainedfire-wildrider

Vocatia: “Hm, maybe?” She answered with a non-committal tilt of her head.  “’Cause I could say that maybe I wouldn’t need to resort to violence as much if I didn’t meet half of these bandits... No need to fight if there’s no need to defend m’self, ya know?   But then this wouldn’t be Pandora then, would it?”

Rictus: “My pa used to say that I was always a small orange grapefruit in the tangerine bowl.  Pa also got squished by a moonshot and I ended up happier so... maybe I never needed him anyways?”
