Who are the OCs?

Honestly it started as a joke- I made doll outfits, and I was inspired by the song Madame Guillotine to make the image of well... The Guillotine. That hasn't quite come to pass yet since I'm tryna keep my hustle going and sell things but, Madame Guillotine has become an OC in her own right. I used to RP as personified countries so, the next bit isn't really that suprising for me.

I started giving her an actual backstory, which ended up in me creating Paris and Versailles... and the backstory grew a little more and Tuileries and Fontainebleau came about.

I don't know if I'd ever RP them on here, for the most part its just been me making memes and art and giggling like a dumbass with my fiance.

But, a little bit of explanation-

Paris has tired single dad energy since France is AWOL and he has to deal with these things on his own. Looks like one of the people, a doctor or a lawyer perhaps, and serves as a deputy to the National Convention. None of them know who he really is though.

Versailles is the awful decadent twink. Face painted, fake moles, silks, feathers, all of it. Very "i have it worse than you" energy. To be fair, this has come about as being the Sun King's favorite and the seat of government for a hot minute, he's never known anything but decadence and during the Revolution is more than a bit spoiled.

Tuileries is just... he's tired. Let him nap. He was almost abandoned and not well cared for and suddenly he's the seat of government AND the home of the royal family and he's just so tired guys. Just so tired.

Fontainebleau is minding her own business during the Revolution- mostly. She's sheltering Versailles after the king's family was taken to the Tuileries, and she keeps him from causing too much trouble. She likes the finer things, there's no secret to that, shes very much an aristocratic woman, but very smart and knows how to play her cards right. She offers support to Paris, and he sees her as one of the very few close "siblings" he has, if they can be called that, along with Tuileries.

Guillotine was the oops child no one saw coming. I visualize personifications coming about once someone gives a spirit to a thing, like calling a country the Motherland or like, calling ships "she" or the Russians having General Winter etc. It's touch and go with wether or not they'll actually gain a spirit, it depends on how well ingrained they are in someone's mind. And Madame Guillotine is very well ingrained in the minds of the world as the Razor Nationale. So she came about while the king was still in power, and it surprised even her siblings, who didn't see the guillotine as anything more thab an instrument. She lived in Versailles the first few years of her life, which, he hated her- but that's another story.

There's a lot more to them i won't bore you about but here's some memes (made with their Faceclaims etc) and more meme templates are appreciated
