Out of all the OCs you have, who’s your favorite? > : D

Short Answer: there are always at least two walking around my mind, and currently those are [Specthor] and... Edwin.

'Thor is a well-known OC by near buddies online and on my other socials, but Eddy didn't even have a reference until now so, excuse me I'll use this opportunity to do a Longer Answer!

(The other characters shown here are [Naveler] and Birdlord. That last one needs a proper reference too but that's for another day because he carries a lot of lore from another project.)

Edwin is one of four of my oldest OCs (I think his first doodles date back to 2007-2008) so he practically grew up with me! Younger Windy was shy and lacked a strong masculine, fatherly, and even brotherly figure so, in some way, Edwin resumed all of that and helped me become brave when I was hesitant to try something new.

He sounds like a guardian angel, but I usually joke that he is quite the "husbando"/partner in crime of my mind hahaha.

Talking about "husbando": in these modern days, enjoying critically and leisurely about characters, even wishing to portray them with my own views, Edwin is still here supporting me.

How? By becoming the "actor" behind each character I like. Every time I roleplay and/or draw a character, I use some of Eddy's traits to feel comfortable in my portrayals.

In some way, he wears them like "masks of catharsis". Nothing is unfamiliar anymore with him there.

When loving a character, I indirectly love Edwin, too. No matter if he needs to interpret a hero, an antihero, or the extreme of extremes. It's always safe because I know a part of him is there.
