#OC fact swap

[veilkeeper]

OC fact swap for you! While Kyvir obviously doesn't worship any gods other than Bhaal, he has a deep-seated respect for Bane that probably would have been worship if he had... y'know, religious freedom.

cdd i love how in each other's heads we are because serenity would also be a banite in another life. no wonder bhaal's so mad. no wonder orin's so mad.

oc fact swap!

Sylas tends to only refer to people by nicknames. pre-tadpole this was a habit to depersonalize people just as he depersonalized himself (makes indescriminite murder easier when you dont consider them to be people). post-tadpole it's simply a quirky habit he doesn't remember the origin of that is more fun spirited.

(and yes i have a whole list of nicknames and reasoning per companion and npc)

x - @zoneofsmites

Ough, depersonalizing people to make it easier to kill them...

Kyvir hates it when people shorten his name. Pet names are fine, nicknames that aren't a shortened version of his name are fine, but he can't stand people shortening his name. Not even Gortash could get away with it, and he's the one who gave Kyvir his name in the first place. One of their associates called him "Ky" exactly once, disappeared that night, and was found brutally murdered three days later. He's significantly calmer about it post-amnesia but he still really hates it, even if he doesn't remember why. This definitely does not say anything about how important the name Gortash chose is to him, shut up.

It’s been a while so you probably forgot about it but this is for the OC fact swap. I’ll go with Ángel because I know he’s your favourite among my OCs

He “inherited” his love for theater/acting from his paternal grandfather who used to be an actor. In his family it’s common to celebrate birthdays, Christmas, and other holidays with small performances in arrangement of which Ángel always takes one of the most active parts. They either perform Avaloran famous plays or come up with their own stories, make costumes and some simple decorations, build a stage, memorize their lines, and generally have lots of fun together, even if anyone messes up, it’s not a big deal because what can be more fun than improvisation

Now’s your turn 👀

Ááángeeeeel!! Baby boy. I love that for him, makes sense he's so expressive! And he has a family tradition that he partakes in so actively :3

Hdksndksb okay now you've put me in a quite an awkward position. Because I planned to answer this game with the Lachians. But obviously I can't do that now XD

So instead let's go with something about Gabe's extended family. One of Gabe's cousins is called Elena, right? And yes, after the princess Elena. Despite that, she's... not really a fan of Elena herself. Her mother was very patriotic (hence her name), but she died around a year before Elena came back and she holds this kind of childish grudge against Elena that she was too late. That her mother never got to see Avalor reborn in the way she always dreamed about. There's also the fact that Elena works in a company that handles fabric trade with Paraíso and after Elena opened the borders there was a risk of her losing her job. She generally was pretty wary of princess Elena for the first years of her reign, even though Gabe knows her personally and assured her countless times that she's a great person, Elena wasn't really delighted with her as a ruler. It's not that she liked Shuriki, but that was the order she was used to and she doesn't really like change, not to mention that a lot of weird things started happening in Avalor after Elena took over, so it took her some time to get used to stuff like magic, music, new festivals, some new laws and a whole new presence of the ruler (since Elena's ruling style was much different from Shuriki's), but by the time she got to meet her personally, she got over most of this stuff. That's when it turned out they have ABSOLUTELY not compatible characters and queen Elena's visit was a challenge for both of them. At the end of the day she's mostly neutral towards her, but with a more negative edge.

OC fact swap:

- Aly doesn’t have any combat or weapon handling experience but she creates and designs blueprints for weapon upgrades, specially semiautomatic rifles.

Can I have a fact about Antonia? 👀

Omg THATS SO COOL!! IVE NEVER SEEN AN OC WITH THAT ABILITY!

Antonia applied to the Air Forces at 18 to prove her worth to herself and actually got rejected the first time she applied because she wasn't at the physical requirement to join them.

So she started to train and since she's kind of a glutton for punishment, she train day and night no matter how exhausted she was.

Now her endurance and skills are up there with the others!

[deputyash]

Oc swap fact - Vireo Ryder tells everyone she didn’t bring anything from the milky way, but she did, a prothean artifact that her team gave her as a good luck present when she had to leave, it was the first artifact they found when she joined them, Jaal is the only person she ever shows it to

Aww I love that! That's really cool! Jaal must be a special person to get to know about it too. (Also, Vireo is such a cool name!)

Dove likes to collect a lot of things, but one of the things that she treasures a lot are some of her wrinkled, folded up photo booth photos she and her older brother took when they went to Fiesta Texas (an amusement park in TX) when they were younger. It was one of her favorite memories and she always keeps those photos with her (or in her journal/scrapbook.)

👀 at the OC fact swap going on, this is delightful!

[canisalbus]

So i remember an ask mentioning your mortal enemy, Felis Atra and their cats, and i thought it'd be fun to draw what Felis Atra's version of your italian dogs would be.

I think they would be called Butter Knife and Flamengo! Butter Knife is not his real name, it's an nickname given by his peers because of how harmless he is. I choose Flamengo because that's the name of Vasco's rival football team here in Brazil, so i thought that was the perfect name :)

Cat Machete was slightly inspired by the Oriental Shorthair cat because of their long noses and thin head shape.

Cat Vasco was inspired by the Scottish Fold cat, because FLOPPY EARS. I gave Flamengo longer ears and orange fur to make him more like his look-alike.

The last doodle is a reference to this ask (https://canisalbus.tumblr.com/post/728923918314946560/me-i-am-machete-ear-fan-number-1-those-ears) and contains the tumblr ask stand-in dog, whose cat version was inspired by the American Curl cat! They have round ears that are slightly floppy outwards.

Final notes: I know cardinal clothes don't come in vibrant blue, but i was ADAMANT on switching Machete's and Vasco's clothing color patterns. I would draw the rest of Butter Knife's and Flamengo's clothes, but i suck at designing cool outfits.

Speaking of outfits, for Machete's iconic void outfit, i figured it would be fun to make it more baggy for Butter Knife, in contrast to Machete's, that looks very tight-fitted. I think it's cute, it kinda looks like a sweater. Also i can't imagine a Machete doppelganger without high heels boots, so those HAD to stay.

Oh, and just to be clear, i'm not like, claiming ownership of these guys or anything. I just thought it would be a fun exercise. Hope you like them!! I love your art and your characters.

reassassination swap AU... fuckin.... unassassination idfk

[scrunglepaws]

This was the hardest vote so far because I really, really love both of these guys (and aus). S tier designs and concepts on both sides. <3 And their colors contrast each other so nicely: super muted and super bright! I thought it would be neat if they met, so this was my guess on how that would go. I figured Tails would be weirded out at the sight of another doppelganger and go on the offensive, while Screw would be more skittish. Fight and flight, basically (more contrast!). I hope I did them justice. owo;;

Since I couldn't vote for you both, at least I could do fanart for both! And serve up some propaganda for RECOIL in the next round.

[heybiji]

I love your art style, ESPECIALLY your DnD art! I wanna give your scarred elf boi a big ol hug! Never has a drow ever made me wanna play the race as much as your art of Dandelion!

oh, he could certainly use a hug lately, please do please do.

and FOLLOW THE DROW DREAM!! just don't be a donut like I was and have them in disguise for 60-something sessions while you are desperate to draw and share art of them but CAN'T

Which OC is the first at a movie theater opening night for a movie they've been excited for?

LMAO this question cracked me up when I first read it bc it immediately made me think of my cinema storyline, truth is out of that particular bunch, besides that specific setting without any obligations, I can only see Luca wanting to show up immediately at an opening night? He's a huge movie buff and always waits for new releases. Emilio wouldn't immediately need to see a movie, same with Aaron. Though it does depend per case. And for Vale, especially not. He usually rather waits for it to arrive on streaming services than to be cramped in a stuffy cinema, even if he does enjoy the movie theater soundscape. Outside of the cinema squad, I can see Gina and Devyn being really excited for new movie releases and wanting to see them as soon as possible.

Which OC is the pickiest?

Definitely Vale, he is REALLY picky with most food and usually not up for new adventures, with exception when it comes to beverages, but yeah. He simply does not eat most fruit for example, and generally if possible, sticks to his safe foods. Besides him, Kaia is kinda picky aswell, not with her palate, but rather textures. She needs her meals buttery soft and/or smushed.

Which OC is the most stubborn?

Aaron, I'd say. A lot of them are quite a stubborn bunch, but he definitely takes the crown. He does NOT budge on like, anything ever, if he's decided something has to be in a specific way, do not attempt to sway his opinions or change him. I'd also consider Emilio and Sharon the next contenders when it comes to stubbornness. If you'd put these 3 in a room and let them try to sort out an argument, you'd see the scenario of all of them wanting to have the upper hand and win lol.

Which OC looks like a pushover, but could actually kick someone's butt?

Baby Maggie! She is surprisingly strong for being so tiny. Amazing at lifting weights, too. Amazing at crushing things. Usually accidentally, but she can build up quite some power.

Which OC is most likely to excitedly talk about hobbies?

Absolutely Gina. A lot of things interest her, and she loves to share what makes her adore the things she does. If she's played a new game she's become hyperfixated on? Must tell her friends. Read a newly discovered manga that's considered niche? Must tell everyone so they know just how damn good and underrated it is. Drawn one of her friends? Mail that piece of artwork to them. In addition to Gina, Maggie and Emilio are probably the chattiest about their hobbies. Also while not on their level, you can easily lure Kaia out of her woodworks if you want her to read a birth chart, or simply talk about the beauty of some constellations.

I'm sooo behind tags and dunno who's done which ones, so I'm tagging everyone who's in mood to do this and also blabber some more about their OC's <3

[veilkeeper]

For the oc fact swap, Vesper (my durge) picked up the prayer for Forgiveness when they found it in the mindflayer colony and it hasn't left their inventory since

god theyre just carrying it around. you have to tell me more about this, this could have so many angles. is it as proof that they weren't even a perfect follower of bhaal even before they lost their memories? or a grave reminder of what they were willing to do? ough.

ill go durge for durge and trade a serenity fact: even from the first night post-amnesia, he kneels to pray before going to bed. he can't remember who it's to, but he never skips it.

[villetela]

I'm back on drawing the DCA again LET'S GOOOOO🎉🎉

Silly sanders sides au I made up: the kids show au!!! As the name would suggest, the basic premise is the story of Sanders Sides but if it was a tv show for younger kids instead of a webseries for whatever the age demographic for SaSi is supposed to be.

C!Thomas is a child in this one (like eight/nine I’m thinking?) and on his birthday he receives a magic (kind of not really? I’ll get to that) mirror and with it he can travel into his mind and meet his sides! With his creativity, logic, and morals by his side he goes on adventures through his mind fighting imaginary monsters and even other sides. Through these adventures he learns lessons about himself and how to deal with problems in the real world. This au is pretty light hearted compared to the other ones I’ll post about, there are story developments and bad things do happen, but since it’s meant to imitate a kids show it’s a lot more sanitized and everything always works out eventually.

More info under the cut:

It’s sort of vague whether or not Thomas’ adventures or imaginary or not and if the mirror is actually magic, I think it’s kind of implied it is his imagination? But like in the same way it’s implied the canon sides are imaginary so nobody cares and we all collectively treat them like they’re real

The biggest difference in the characters other than age is our creative side, I picture Thomas’ creativity not have been split, at least not when the story starts. So we have Romulus aka King Creativity (we’ve all accepted that piece of fanon right?) hanging around. I picture at some point there’d be a big fight between him and Patton that results in the split, imagine like a two part special. In the end they’re able to save Romulus (it’s a show for young children afterall) and decide to keep him aswell as Roman and Remus around, so sometimes they’ll be seperate and sometimes they’ll be fused depending on the situation.

All of the sides are kids in this one but not all of them appear the exact same age as Thomas. Logan is the youngest (do yall remember that thing that was going around a while ago about Logan being the youngest when Thomas was a kid cause the logic part of your brain develops later or something idk). The creativity twins are around Thomas’ age but a bit younger. Romulus and Janus are both the same age as Thomas (Janus might be slightly older but just barely). Virgil is older than Thomas, sort of imitating Thomas’ perception of a mean older kid type. And Patton is the oldest (he’s still a kid though).

I haven’t mentioned orange but I will probably add an orange side if I do more with this au, I think he’d be anger. I’m a firm believer in him and Patton being related somehow so they’d probably be siblings in this au. Not sure when that split would happen but that could maybe be after Romulus’ split because Patton feels guilty about what happened. “You can’t get angry anymore! Look what happens when you get angry! You hurt people” or something like that. I think he’d appear the same age as Logan.

The dark sides aren’t really a plot twist here, especially since two of them might just- not exist at the beginning of the story. They do get introduced over time though in probably the same order as in canon. They get redemption/acceptance arcs over time as well.
