Partly because so much of their story was shaped by the sim and partly because, while I've contributed A Lot Of Dot Lore, it's still very much been a community effort and I take inspiration from what a lot of other people have done with them too, especially @mossy-kit! OUR oc :)
my oc lore is so normal to me until i have to explain it. yeah this is a guy. this other guy is an alternate version of this same guy. there’s a third as well. i’m sorry it’s cringe you just have to bear with me
#it feels kinda weird to call any blaseball players my ocs because like. I didn't literally create them and I didn't lore them 100% by myself#not that I object to other people saying it! idk I guess it's that I've never fully 100% built lore for a blaseball player on my own#unlike for example Kosmo with Jasper Coven. that is fully 100% his character it was all him#yes I am The Dot Person and I have had a big impact on their popular lore and I have Opinions about them#but it still feels wrong to say they're My OC. Mine#even with players that I've built much closer to from scratch it feels kinda wrong#like ok I'm the only one to write Eloise Butterworth or Gloria Bentley and I shaped those characters myself but even then it's running with#community lore concepts. same with Spears Nolan who I've done a really deep dive into had a pretty clear Lore Vibe first#and his secret gf who I will reveal to the wolrd someday I swear. like yes she's fully my character who I created but also she's not because#[SPOILER]#like ok some of them are maybe kinda my ocs. but is Dot? idk#oh also talking Polkadots Patterson I wouldn't say Alto is mine at all. they're very Mechs and I'm just happy to be along for the ride#anyway sorry for the tag ramble lol#oh also. I mostly think of my blaseball OCs as being my Salt characters#yado and weston and the lighthouse keeper (whose name is not revealed yet) and carson (who you haven't met yet)#and to some extent the salt itself as a blaseball entity#and msot of all my own team in the salt league. milky way wanderers my beloveds#*most#ok I'm done rambling now for real#talking moistly#WAIT just realized I said blaseball entity instead of sentient entity. fuck. I meant the Salt as a sentient entity. sentientity#I'm so tired lol
