Something I put together for fun, looking at the evolution timeline of my longest held OC, Teya Emara.

Started as a wolf, now she's a horse... dragon... kirin... thing!

Teya was originally designed and owned by my sister, @opashoo. This was when we were both incredibly young and most of our media exposure was one part anime and two parts webcomics. TwoKinds and Slightly Damned were definitely big inspirations during that time. Teya didn't have much to her at the time, the most notable things about her being pink and being nice.

Later on as I took more and more ownership of the Paving the Way setting and I started taking in more "mature" media, Teya adjusted to follow suit, becoming more serious, a bit more flawed. She wasn't just a general adventurer anymore, she was a princess. She would wield a guandao and kick ass with it. While still not being the primary character in the main story, she would be the central focus of the Emaran Kingdom's civil war/conflict.

When MLP came to an end, I decided to make a dramatic change to the world of Paving the Way, changing the Chirans from being a "grab bag" furry/anthro race and into a more specific hooved animal species. Originally the idea was to have them be equine with three ethnicities that would correspond with earth ponies, pegasi, and unicorns.

But as I developed Chirans out more, I expanded them from being just equines to more hooved creatures, goats, deer, and horses specifically.

And like that, Teya went from being a Chiran wolf to a Chriran Kapaylo! The entire political structure of the Emaran kingdom was changed, turned from a feudal structure and into a confederation of city states. Teya went from being a princess to an Old World data recovery specialist in the Naylana Library, founded by one of her ancestors. She's no longer much of a fighter, as she was left frail and weakened by a disease in her childhood. Still, she is handy with tools and Old World electronics, and deeply fascinated by the world that came before the one she knew. One day, she hopes to set out on her own Old World Vault Expedition, complete with the dangers and excitement, instead of the safe and boring Vault excavations she is allowed to go to.

Paving the Way is a good measure of what is important to me and how that can change as the years pass. The Teya of the past was about as deep as a puddle and so was the world she inhabited, the ideas driven mostly by whatever anime or video game stories I thought were cool and I could adapt. Nowadays, Teya and PTW have some more thought behind them, with ideas I want to communicate on my own, rather than just repurposing other people's.

It's fun. And exciting, having a character that can grow and change right alongside with you.
