🖊 Everest!

ah! you have stumbled upon a character who I can decisively call my absolute least-developed character of the group, who doesn't actually really have a place in my main universe, and who I still have many ideas about and love :]

[this one probably won't be as long as the first but just in case, infodump under the cut]

so basically he's a catboy

I'm so sorry bc this isn't even how the character started out?? a lot of the stuff I do with these characters is just. make aus of a story that doesn't actually exist yet. the ones I have currently are: human au (pretty standard, mainly created for the designs), Lavka-is-a-ghost-who's-bound-to-Marcel-for-reasons-unknown au (way weirder, based on a song, I have one scene for it), and "human"-protagonists-transported-to-magic-world au, which is where Everest comes in.

now normally when I come up with this stuff it's centered around Marcel, who was my first real oc so kinda the protagonist by default. this one, however, was based on Onyx! I have no idea why! but I decided they needed a partner in crime and also I wanted to make a new character, so.... Everest was born.

my first idea was just. emo nerd. I don't really have any characters like that and I needed smth to offset Onyx's relentless extrovert energy, so I came up with this kid with glasses, hair over one eye, slightly creepy. then somewhere along the way, I came up with the astounding, revolutionary, never-been-done-before idea of..... catboy

but it actually makes sense I promise!! lemme explain

my original idea for Everest was already very catlike. he creeps people out- and this is kind of intentional on his part- because he always looks like he can see. everything. he's just in the background observing shit and you don't notice he's there until you see him out of the corner of your eye watching you or smth else intently but with next to no expression on his face. it's fucking terrifying. and I say this is catlike bc he's watching from a distance and it definitely seems like he knows exactly what's going on at all times but he hardly ever interacts with people he doesn't already know. someone comes up to him to make small talk and he just narrows his eyes and slinks away.

also physical description bc I totally didn't forget to do it earlier:

he's got like white/platinum hair with bright blue strips that's about shoulder level and just kinda. hangs there. his bangs go over his right eye ALWAYS and it pisses him off (especially bc it gets in the way of his glasses) but the only thing that works to keep it out of his face is like hairclips and that ruins his AestheticTM so he tolerates it. he's about 5'8, so many of my characters are tall, his left eye is yellow and his right one is blue. his skin is p light. he wears glasses, they're thin gold circles and I like them very much. most of his clothes are like.... i dunno, old-timey, victorian-era? basically what you would imagine a vampire wearing.

his relationship to Onyx is very opposites-attract. he's quiet and reserved, they're energetic and flirty. he's vampire-esque, they're alt/punk. he's tall, they're short. etc. I think the main reason they became friends in the first place was that Onyx just.... didn't notice his whole "creep people out from the shadows" thing. they just waltzed up to him one day and decided to become friends, and managed it despite him being less than eager to get to know people (they're definitely friends now though, Onyx is the only person Everest like fully trusts honestly). they're like. peak autism/adhd solidarity. Onyx talks for hours on end and Everest just listens without saying a word and they both love it.

my like ~twist~ for the story is kinda the reveal that at least Everest and also possibly Onyx aren't totally human? Everest has his cat traits obviously, and the original Onyx is a ghost but I don't think that's what I'm gonna do for this one. maybe selkie or nine-tailed-fox bc my mythology is always Convoluted and Bullshit but it's v fun to take a bunch of myths and smash them together lmao

that's basically all I have on him but it's a lot more than I thought so yay!! I'm gonna come up with more stuff for him bc he doesn't really have a backstory yet so I gotta do that

also, bonus moodboard I made for him a couple months ago!! I'm actually v happy with it I think it captures his vibes p well :]
