[dreamlordmorpheus]

1, 2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, and 22 for Ary. 1, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 21, 25 for Saiorse and Siobhan. Yes, this is a long list. I thought I'd give you something to keep you occupied :P

(😍😍😍 ur the bestttt)

1: Origins! How did you come up with the concept for your OC? Ary was a bit of a mishmash to be honest. Mostly I really wanted to wear a Phantom of the Opera mask to blackwatch, so I came up with a whole spiraling backstory to justify it. i also wanted to get to know other people’s characters, so I decided to play someone who was outgoing and humorous, but a bit rough around the edges. 

2: Were they originally well received by the fandom? Or if they’re fandomless, did the RP community take to them right away or was it hard to get attention? no fandom, but most of my LARP friends noticed Ary right away. (they’re pretty chatty so it’s hard to miss them) their personality developed from session to session based on what i thought worked and by the end of their arc they were pretty well-liked. 

3: Has your OC gone through different incarnations during their stay on Tumblr? Were they reimagined or have they stayed the same all this time? originally ary was supposed to be a lot less vocal cause I was pretty shy, but i soon found out that they weren’t having that at all. 

9: What is your OC like when at work? Are they diligent? Slacker? Do they get along with their co-workers? Ary works hard, but also jokes around a lot. if they don’t like the job they won’t devote a lot of effort to it, but no matter what they always try to befriend their co-workers. 

10: How do they deal with strangers? Ary is pretty distrustful of strangers at first, but it doesn’t take much to get them to befriend them. although truly earning their trust takes time, they tend to see the best in people and will readily give anyone a chance. 

11: Is there a place they go to in order to escape the world, the stresses of life? What’s their favourite place? Ary’s hometown is a dream-city called Skerry, so they like to visit it in their sleep. the alleys of Skerry are filled with all sorts of different characters and people, and they consider it to be home. 

12: What scent calms them? Reminds them of home or something soothing? their favorite smell is a type of flower that doesn’t actually exist in the waking world, but was a popular perfume for sex workers in Skerry and worn by their caretaker (mother or sister? its unclear). 

13: Do they have any favourite foods? Would they eat it all the time if they had the chance? What do they hate to eat? cinnamon cookies! anything cinnamon and sweet, really. they’ve actually tried to survive off cookies alone. it didn’t work. they hate anything minty. 

14: Pet peeves. Tell us what would really tick them off. Do they have a Berserk Button? pretty basic, mostly just people hurting their friends. although ary is pretty easy-going, once you get them truly angry then you’re kinda fucked. 

15: Does your OC have any awful fears? Do they get paralyzed with fear or can they work through their fears? Ary is terrified of water, to the point where baths have been a problem. they’ve been able to work through this a little bit thanks to a lovely magical hot tub, but still refuse to submerge. 

16: What are concepts they value? Virtues? What do they look down upon? Ary values honesty and hard work! if you lie to them they’ll pretty much never forgive you. ironically enough, they’re also a bit of a thief and scoff at people’s concepts of traditional virtue. (”how can you be honest if you’re a thief?” people may ask. “m8 i dont lie about stealing shit, its just that nobody really asks.” “have you stolen stuff from me????” “haha totally”) 

17: Do they have any guilty pleasures? They embarrassed about them? Do they flaunt them? pretty girls. they’re completely unashamed about it and full of innuendo. 

18: Do they have a guilty conscience? Why? Did they ever do something they totally regretted? massive survivor’s guilt for pretty much everything. their instinctive reaction to a tragedy is to blame themselves. they have a lot of regrets, but are doing their best to move past them. 

20: What are Tropes you associate with your muse? they’re somewhat of a Jerk With a Heart of Gold and also someone who Really Gets Around. also Have I Mentioned I Am Gay. 

21: Name an embarrassing situation that your muse has been in. they tried to nab a vampire’s hair ribbon and almost started an all-out fight. it was bad. 

22: If given a million dollars, what would your OC do? hire a hot female cook to bake them cookies all day every day. and then hoard some it and spend the rest on lavish gifts for their friends. 

wow, i haven’t talked a lot about ary in a while! i miss them and this was super fun. now, onto the twins! 

1: Origins! How did you come up with the concept for your OC? I basically took some basic character archetypes and designed characters around them. Siobhan’s original moniker was “woodland witch”, while Saoirse’s was “monster hunter”. the focus on both of them was initially how they would interact with campers, and then they sort of ran away from me. 

6: What is your OC’s family situation? Do they get along? Do they fight? Or are they alone? both parents are dead (passed peacefully a while ago) and they’re not at all on speaking terms. Siobhan considers her animal and creature friends to be family, while Saoirse is closest to her “sisters” at the all-female monster hunting group she used to be a part of. 

7: What does your OC look for in a friend? Do they value friendship a lot? Siobhan values kindness and caring, and has many many friends. Saoirse looks for honesty and loyalty, and only has a few people she’s super close to. 

8: What does your OC look for in a significant other? Are they looking at all? Siobhan isn’t looking, and probably won’t ever be (aro ace). Saoirse isn’t currently looking either, but her past string of lovers tended to be hardened fighters like herself (mostly female but a few men thrown in there as well). 

9: What is your OC like when at work? Are they diligent? Slacker? Do they get along with their co-workers? already answered for Siobhan, but Saoirse is very diligent. she gets along with her co-workers as much as is needed to survive, but doesn’t really make friends on the job. (considering that the job is killing things, this makes sense)

10: How do they deal with strangers? Siobhan loves strangers! Saoirse does not. this is the biggest fundamental difference between them - their reaction to the unknown. 

11: Is there a place they go to in order to escape the world, the stresses of life? What’s their favourite place? Siobhan loves the woods, in particular a little brook that runs by her home. if she’s feeling overwhelmed, she’ll go and swim in one of the deep pools there. Saoirse doesn’t currently have a physical place to go to, but she likes to sit in a quiet place and think about her childhood home. her safe place is more mental. 

12: What scent calms them? Reminds them of home or something soothing? Siobhan likes the smell of wet leaves on the ground. Saoirse loves the smell of woodsmoke on a cold day. 

13: Do they have any favourite foods? Would they eat it all the time if they had the chance? What do they hate to eat? Siobhan really likes rare meat and candied flowers. its a fae thing. she won’t eat anything that’s been boiled, as she says boiling “kills the flavor”. in contrast, Saoirse’s favorite food is stew/soup of any kind. she doesnt like anything overly sweet. 

14: Pet peeves. Tell us what would really tick them off. Do they have a Berserk Button? already answered Siobhan’s. Saoirse is actually like her sister in this regard, she doesn’t get angry very often. mostly she gets mad as a defense mechanism when something surprises her. given her cynical nature, this rarely happens. 

15: Does your OC have any awful fears? Do they get paralyzed with fear or can they work through their fears? Siobhan is terrified of people finding out her true nature and hating her for it. she has nightmares of mobs hunting her down and setting her home on fire. she generally doesn’t like to acknowledge this fear and therefore doesn’t attempt to work through it. Saoirse is scared of monsters. her coping mechanism involves killing them, which isn’t healthy, but it does work. 

16: What are concepts they value? Virtues? What do they look down upon? Siobhan values kindness above all else. she’s very Neutral Good. Saoirse values physical strength and proficiency. she’s pretty Lawful Good. (it took me a while to figure out her alignment, but i eventually got it down. Saoirse likes to set rules for herself and follow them, and sees the world in very black and white terms. in her eyes, there is Good and there is Evil and there is nothing in between.)

17: Do they have any guilty pleasures? They embarrassed about them? Do they flaunt them? already answered for Siobhan - honey! Saoirse’s is music. she’s pretty shy about it, but she loves listening to people singing and play instruments. she learned how to play piano when she was young, but won’t perform in front of people. 

18: Do they have a guilty conscience? Why? Did they ever do something they totally regretted? Siobhan blames herself for her sister’s injury. Saoirse regrets blaming her sister for her injury. 

19: Have they ever been injured? Sick? How do they deal with it? Siobhan doesn’t really get sick. her response to injury is usually confusion. she takes care of it and functions the best she can. Saoirse would get terrible migraines as a child and doesn’t deal well with injury. she tries to push through the pain, which usually leaves her in worse condition. 

20: What are Tropes you associate with your muse? oh man i’m not super familiar with tropes let’s leave that for another day. 

21: Name an embarrassing situation that your muse has been in. Siobhan once got stuck in a tree trying to rescue a squirrel. she didn’t know that squirrels can climb trees. Saoirse once got startled by a giant cockroach and proceeded to lightning bolt it. that section of the house had to be rebuilt. 

25: What are your plans for your muse in the future? if all goes well, Siobhan is going to work with the Woodland Realm and teach them about earthworms and decomposition! fingers crossed. Saoirse is going to teach skills to various houses and probably hang around with the Blackwatch. if all does not go well, they’ll probably do the same thing but in a diminished capacity. 

(thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Ary Paper Doll outfits: Fancy, Mercenary, and Everyday Ahhhhg I'm never making a paper doll again!!

17. For Ary, Tara, and Riall (and any other Blackwatch members you want)

THESE ARE THE VOYAGES OF THE STARSHIP BLACKWATCH. 

So Ary is totally a Klingon in this universe. They’ve rather unwillingly joined the crew of the USS Blackwatch as a Federation-mandated attempt at species integration. Mostly what they’ve become known for is picking fights with the natives of whatever planet the crew happens to be visiting. As nobody in their right mind would place Ary in a Command position, they’re technically Security, but are in reality a glorified redshirt who manages to outlive their fellows through sheer stubbornness and good reflexes. 

Tara is the ship’s doctor and is part Betazoid. She has low-level telepathy, which she mostly uses to monitor the emotional status of the crew and of her patients. She doesn’t beam down often, but when she does she’s both an excellent diplomat and a skilled fighter. She’s also an official Federation ambassador. 

Riall is the captain of the ship and a full-blooded Vulcan. Although he can be standoffish and icy at times, he commands the full respect and loyalty of his crew. He has an unflinching dedication to the Prime Directive, but has been known to turn a blind eye to the exploits of his crew (cough cough Ary). He and Tara met on the ship and were married soon after. They are a remarkably close couple, which is largely due to their shared telepathic abilities (Vulcans are touch telepaths).

All of your OCs are hanging together when suddenly they find an infant. How do they handle it? WHo is the best and who is the worst at caring for a child? Who is the practical one who tracks down the baby's rightful home?

Oh boy. That would be fun. So, Cre is probably the most paternal out of all of them and would be holding the baby and cooing at it and rocking it. Lara would probably be making funny faces and playing peek-a-boo while Cre holds it. Ary HATES children and would be trying to convince everyone to just put it back where it came from or so help me. Flint is kinda ehhhh around kids but he tries. Also would probably be the only one to realize it needs food and would mash up bananas or something. Aenea is trying to come up with names, and Ro is the only one actually concerned with finding it’s original home. There are arguments about whether or not they should keep it. In the end the baby is reluctantly returned and the worried parents are perplexed by the hardened band of tattooed mercenaries coddling their baby.

Ary DeSkerry 4. How good are your OC’s dancing skills?, 12. Does your OC know more than one language and if so, what are they and how fluent are they in said languages? 13. Does your OC like magic or science more?; and all your OCs for 21. Who would buy and send their friends weird things they find over the internet? (au where the Internet exists if necessary), 22. Who’s cooking skills are so bad that there’s a good chance they could burn water?

(You are a Fantastic friend thank you so much) 4. How good are your OC’s dancing skills? Ary cannot dance for shit, but they can fake some pretty simple ‘rich people dances’ if necessary

12. Does your OC know more than one language and if so, what are they and how fluent are they in said languages? Ary speaks a little bit of Latin, spanish, and some rudimentary sign language

13. Does your OC like magic or science more? They aren’t really a fan of either one, and given how often the two coincide for them probably couldn’t be bothered to differentiate.

and all your OCs for 21. Who would buy and send their friends weird things they find over the internet? (au where the Internet exists if necessary) Cre is a notorious impulse buyer and should not be allowed on Amazon by himself. So far, he has bought a 'suns out guns out’ tank for ary (who wears it all the time), one of those ridiculous soda drinking hats for aenea (“so you can hydrate while doing alchemy!”), a butterfly made out of fucking gold that has been enchanted to fly around for Lara (she loves it despite the fact that it’s literally worth more than her entire life), a pair of bright pink Beats headphones for Ro (she professes to hate the color but wears them whenever she can), a set of those weird floppy cooking pans for flint (who loves the texture on them and will spend hours washing them), and of course lots of binders for himself. (He likes the custom ones with flowery prints)

22. Who’s cooking skills are so bad that there’s a good chance they could burn water? Aenea can burn ANYTHING lbr.

Ary: 1. Describe one time your character embarrassed themselves, 3. What is your character always a slut for?, 16. What would most likely be their last words if they died after being severely injured in a fight?, 26. What would they get in a fight about?

(*shrieks in delight* thank you thank you thank yoooouuuu ily) 1. Describe one time your character embarrassed themselves: There are SO MANY for Ary tbh but let’s go with the time they tried to steal a vampire’s hair scrunchie and ended up accidentally starting a full-out bloodsucker shouting match. That was a fun one.

3. What is your character always a slut for? Ary’s always a slut for pretty girls! (Literally lol)

16. What would most likely be their last words if they died after being severely injured in a fight? Probably something along the lines of ‘fuck fuck fuck I fucked up damn this hurts shit’ and then a very soft ‘tell all of them that I’m sorry and that I…well, they’ll know.’

26. What would they get in a fight about? Anything and everything. Usually most of their bar fights are started over people being dicks to Cre. (This doesn’t really apply to any of the other squad members, since they can mostly take care of themselves and Ary is ridiculously protective of Cre anyways) Sometimes over really petty things like people taking the last cinnamon cookie before they could even have one damnit Gerald you know those are my favorite

[dreamlordmorpheus]

9 and 13 for Cre?

(You are the best friend ever ever ever thank youuuu!)

9. Favourite piece of clothing? Probably his binder. Not only does it represent the beginning of his friendship with Ary, but it also marks the start of when people started treating him like a guy. It’s a little worn from the years of use and has several unfortunate bloodstains but he refuses to get rid of it for sentimental reasons. (Ary, who scoffs at ‘sappy shite like that’, has gone through at least four binders in the years since they’ve known Cre and can’t comprehend why he doesn’t want a new one)

13: Something that motivates them: Cre mostly just wants to be accepted for who he is. His main goal is to earn enough as a mercenary to successfully retire and start a family. (One of his very closely kept secrets is that he wants to bear children someday. He doesn’t want anybody to know because he thinks it makes him less of a man. The squad won’t care, of course, and would be absolutely ecstatic over a baby, but he doesn’t know that and his anxiety keeps him from saying anything.)

(Again, thank you so much! I love blathering about my OCs)

I RP a street-urchin-turned-mercenary agender lesbian greyromantic OC, and they started sleeping with this queen/goddess/actual living constellation mostly for financial support and good sex. And the goddess lady is totally icy and unapproachable to everyone else and Ary (my OC) has a difficult time forming deep romantic bonds because of commitment issues. And recently Ary almost died, and in the aftermath they confessed their love to each other and now they're getting married and tbh I'm very proud of this sweeping epic love story I've created.
