15, 40, or 50 for whichever OC you choose

If your OC could have any pet, what would they choose? Why?

Let Hank Have A Deathclaw 2287 :( one of these days im gonna break down and actually give him one but i really dont think the others will support it, especially with his like 3 dozen fucking dogs. literally if hank were left to his own devices he would have at least one of every wasteland creature (in particular the most murdery ones) but he once tried to come home with a juvenile radscorpion and annie left town for like two weeks so hes stuck with just dogs for now. probably has had a nightstalker though

Your character is getting ready for a night out. Where are they going? What do they wear? Who will they be with?

it takes trouble a calendar week to prepare for anything like that but he lies about it. forcibly removes sweet eri from his own fucking house and emerges a day later looking like a suggestive vogue photoshoot, and it really doesnt matter where theyre going or if looking like that is appropriate or practical, he WILL be wearing it and later WILL be removing 3/4 of it when he gets drunk enough. it’ll either be with eri (in my own verse) or with Dem Boys (in the campaign verse) and it its with the latter he’ll say I’m Ditching These Clowns Lol but in reality never go more than 2 feet from them at any point

the Childhood Trauma Trio™ (aureus, nex, and loa) would go out together whenever someone can convince loa to like, go outside. it couldnt be to anywhere one of them wouldnt be comfortable with, so shit like Posing In A Graveyard and plays/etc would always be a safe choice. loa either appears dressed like a victorian porcelain doll or in the spiritual equivalent in the fantasy world to shorts and an anime t shirt and theres....no in between. theres also no telling which one. aureus gets very slightly drunk and takes his shoes and shirt off and they get kicked out 3/10 times they go anywhere

the only one of The Boys that stands out in this circumstance is hank. hank doesnt “Get Ready”, he hears the rest of them leaving and emerges, like a cat, and someone (usually barry or probably nik) reminds him of anything hes currently missing (shoes, armor maybe, jackets, etc) and MAYBE he’ll put those on but otherwise no change whatsoever. of course, hes going with at least one of the others, because he doesnt have any friends that Do Things and nobody likes it when he goes out alone. literally nothing good comes from hank going out alone. he WILL return with a baby deathclaw, stolen items, and 3 bounties placed on him

If your character was presented with imminent and unavoidable death/fatality, how would they react? Would they try to avoid death anyways? Would they try to make their last days count?

i could give a number of sad responses to this but aureus would absolutely leave death on read. he would procrastinate doing anything and ultimately forget about it. aureus would set a phone alarm for “2:43 PM Wednesday: Die” and it would go off and he’d be like ‘huh’ and then drop dead immediately. like what im saying is death means NOTHING to this man

i was Utterly Fuckin Star Sabered earlier and was thinking about a college au featuring my fantasy ocs and i came up w the following:

nex: clear and obvious theatre major. theatre kid to end all theatre kids, as usual. going thru kind of a weird clowncore phase and everyones kinda just rolling with it for now. Resents being called a juggalo. into memes and vines. hes like that one benevolent weirdo every school has that everyone knows like some schools have No Shoes Guy some schools have Daily Cosplayer and then this school has Twunky Gym Clown.

aureus: you know that one jock thats always going around looking like he was brought to life as a physical manifestation of bodybuilding forums but always has a thoughtful comment on the lecture and gives u the handout when u miss lecture? yeah. he like never studies but he’s the worlds leading expert on Winging It and is great to have in group projects. probably late daily but no one cares because he makes friends with every professor and its only by like 3 minutes. changes his major way too much. roommates with nex freshman year.

loa: look we all know hes an english major. takes school WAY too seriously and finishes essays in like two days. actually does the readings. hes a good boy but like Rebels a lot in harmless ways after agonizing over it for like 3 weeks. almost definitely befriended nex with a conversation about kuroshitsuji, hes like Squad with the other two after being dragged along with their antics 100% of the time; makes sure neither of them fail

eri: we’re doing this aged down for convenience but. complete and utter art hoe. worlds biggest art hoe, both metaphorically and physically. skips class occasionally to wander off into the woods but spends the rest of the week worrying about it. got married super young but only half for financial aid purposes, The Gag Is theyre soulmates also. hes the best to have in group projects if youre going to hell because even tho it stresses him out he WILL do the whole entire thing by himself and get everyone a free A without saying a word to anyone if u frustrate him enough (but dont do that to him, dont do that to ANYONE are you kidding me)

trouble: no one even knows if he goes there. hes a little older than the rest of the gang but theyre not entirely discounting the possibility that he might just have taken longer or taken time off or w/e. but the jokes on them because all he ever does is lounge in a highly visible spot with some instagrammable beverage while looking really good, hes never gone to class there and probably never will. he just likes the Aesthetic of it all. nex lives there n the gang hang out at his and eri’s place but he hates it because aureus never goes the fuck home

espynn: manic pixie dream classmate. lives the life that tumblr user vampireapologist does apparently. forestry major. eats in class but never gets caught doing it when theres rules against it. theyre that super kind person thats ALWAYS carrying around something for people like spare pencils, paper, pads, medicine, whatever, like they got u. carries a knife around also. always ready to show u the cool frog they saw earlier

bonus! boys content!

annie: he doesnt Go Here but hes around socially because of the others+friends. had to take an extended break over Severe Brain Injury related things, but a lit major and surprisingly into it. on first name basis with absolutely every faculty member in his department and due to overwhelming Big Dick Energy he gets by with fucking around for the time that hes in school

barry: law boy. he dresses like a southwestern farm dad and if he werent hot someone might question the fact that he wears at least two pieces of denim together every single day. gets WAY too stressed about academics and its The End Of The Fucking World if he fails one (1) test. for how charming he is always u would think he would be good socially but no! theres like a 90% chance u will be ghosted by this man! he will forget to reply to u for three weeks then get nervous about responding again after the wait and then just never speak to u again. but also hes the guy that like,,,, talks complete strangers out of a crisis like he finds u sobbing in the student center and then becomes ur new dad and brings u a coffee

jd: doesnt sleep because he takes 8 ams and regrets them. needs mental health accommodations but was nerfed by how much of a pain in the dick they are to get. really passionate about being a good good science boy but not to the point of getting stressed. he’ll absolutely destroy you if you challenge him in an in class discussion and wont tolerate being fucked over in group projects, he WILL put his name and only his on the finished product and send Receipts to the prof if you never respond to group chats. he is the Polar Opposite of eri

k: hes made of anxiety and existential dread so hes good at handling any workload or failure or other fuckup because hes just like Guess I’ll Die. has no fucking clue what he’s doing after school but he majored in probably philosophy or something. wretched little sjw. probably missed class on the mere Promise of a dog on campus

hank: bold of u to assume hank can read

nonbinary elven swamp disaster

Name: Espyn “Espie” Moonflower

Age: 100 (not counting the 30 years in stone)

Alignment: Chaotic Good

Pronouns: They/Them, He/Him, She/Her (doesnt identify as anything)

Deity: Corellon

Pet: Soup (an opossum/”weird cat”)

Favored enemy: Monstrosities

Relationships:

Van Goldwing: he rescued them from being imprisoned in stone using greater restoration and now they work for and kinda sorta study under him. they see him as a father figure, which goldwing is very uncomfortable about since theyre literally older than his grandparents

Aureus Argentum: they took care of him when he showed up at the goldwing house after escaping. because of this and how espie cared for him even after he needed it, aureus thinks very highly of them and is protective of them to an extreme extent. they have sort of a weird dynamic in which aureus is highkey in love with them and espie almost sees him as a son or something. theyre really close basically

Nex Cupido: they’re really good friends and flirt around constantly, its cute

Backstory: 

Espyn Moonflower was the sole survivor of a massacre and was raised by a young human couple. they didnt realize they would eventually outlive their parents until they realized that the two were aging much faster than they were (around 30-50 years later). once the humans died, espyn began taking care of themself, living as a nomad and spending a lot of time in swamps and forests. they eventually became a monster hunter and was turned to stone when trying to slay a basilisk. 30 years later, van goldwing found them while looking for a specific artifact and freed them. 

since espyn wasn’t raised with elves, they aren’t very connected with their own culture. they learned elvish and began following corellon in an attempt to connect with their roots (mostly in honor of the family they lost and still vaguely remember). they were also created in corellon’s image and can choose their physical sex once a day (after a long rest)

Personality: 

espie’s a full idiot, just like a whole ditz. they’re spacey and weird, and if they were human, they might be thought of as a changeling. because they spent so long raising themself in the wilderness, they usually disregard social rules and love dirt and mud. they’re also clumsy and forgetful, and they don’t usually catch figures of speech or read the atmosphere of a room before speaking. but they’re also extremely cute, as well as genuinely kind, compassionate, and honest.
