OC Profile
stealing this from @1esk19 since it looked like a lot of fun! If anyone wants to do this free free to fill it out and say I tagged you! doing this with my DND/original story oc Osprey, set before the events of the plot
General
Full Name: Laedra Shenkas
Alias(es): Osprey (nickname she got from her uncle’s crew as a small child, to fit the family’s bird theme and for her skill at fishing, goes by it basically 95% of the time nowadays), L. Osprey Shenkas (how she typically introduces herself)
Gender: Female
Age: 25
Birthdate: 5th of Alturiak (following the DND forgotten realms calander, equivalent to February 5th)
Place of birth: Marelis, a small island port town
Hometown: She spent the first 5 years of her life in Marlis, living with her mother at her inn and running around town with her siblings. However, her mother struggled with managing the inn and taking care of her three young children and so got her younger brother, the children’s uncle, to take care of them. From then on Osprey and her siblings grew up on her uncle’s ship, sailing along the coast, though from time to time they would go back to visit her mother in Marelis.
Spoken language(s): Common, Elvish, Dwarven, and Abyssal. She mostly learnt Elven and Dwarven from sailors and so picked up the sailor’s dialect and accent. She gained the ability to understand and speak Abyssal after an encounter with a mysterious demon, which is also how she gained the ability to use magic.
Sexual orientation: Lesbian
Occupation: Sellsword/mercenary/sailor for hire. Formerly a member of a pirate crew until she got kicked off the ship.
Appearance
Eye color: Brown
Hair color: Dark brown
Height: 5′8″, but usually wears 2 inch heels
Scars: Arc across her face from a naval battle when she was 17, plus a slash on her left thigh from a similar battle. Her right hand and forearm are partially atrophied, claw like, and appear purple and leathery from a encounter with a demon when she was 8.
Favorite
Color: Light purple
Hair color: She likes her natural hair colour, so dark brown. On other people she doesn’t care lol
Song: Sea shanties and tavern drinking songs
Food: Fried fish as well as most street market food
Drink: Strong coffee. She doesn’t drink alcohol except for weak ale (to avoid getting sick from waterborne illnesses, also way easier to get a hold of as a sailor)
Have They
Passed university: No, she’s never had any formal schooling
Had sex: Yes
Had sex in public: On a beach lol so technically yes
Gotten pregnant: No
Kissed a boy: No
Kissed a girl: Yes
Gotten tattoos: No
Gotten piercings: Yes, she has two cartilage piercings (rings) on her left ear
Been in love: Yes. Osprey tends to fall for people quickly, though she hates showing vulnerability and so hates admitting it.
Stayed up for more than 24 hours: Yes
Are They
A virgin: No
A cuddler: Yes, somewhat subconsciously though haha
A kisser: Yes, she figures she’s pretty damn good at it too lol
Scared easily: Nope
Jealous easily: Not really, at least not to a level she’s aware of
Dominant: Yup. She likes being in control of a situation, take that as you will haha
Submissive: Nope, she is fiercely independent and extremely proud and that sort of translates as you’d expect
In love: It’s complicated (yes)
Single: Yes
Random Questions
Wanted to kill someone: Yep. As a former pirate and a mercenary she’s also been in her fair share of fights and killed people.
Have / had a job: At the moment she’s a travelling sell sword/sailor for hire, and has jumped from crew to crew since growing up on her uncle’s ship. Her last job was working as a mage on a pirate ship run by Captain Edric Goldhammer, but they clashed a lot and eventually she was kicked off the ship after one particularly explosive fight
Have any fears: She’s afraid of losing her independence. As well, she hates showing vulnerability as she thinks people will see her a weak and needing help. She has an extreme fear of ants (myrmecophobia) after an experience she had as a young child, but otherwise she’s fine with bugs.
Family
Sibling(s): Falcon Shenkas (identical triplet sister), Eagle Shenkas (triplet brother)
Parent(s): Carolyn Shenkas (mother) + an unknown elf father. Her uncle Devon “Captain Albatross” Shenkas is also basically like a father to her.
Children: None
Significant other: None, formerly Sylviis of the Open Sea (didn’t end well)
Pet(s): None, though she does like animals
#tag meme#osprey shenkas#long post#osprey is also in a campaign now lol but this is my personal canon version of her

for that dnd ask im gonna throw alot so :3c 21 and 7 for taeral, 58 and 41 for quill, 2 and maybe 47 for alexandra, and maybe just a little 69 (nice) for luther.
aahHh thank you reed ; v ; !!! okay lets see here.
Taeral:
12: If they were a potion, what would it look like? (Color, glass shape, smell, etc.)
Taeral as a potion would be thick oil, a couple of leaves yanked from things like banana leaf plants and vanilla. It would look like a low, deep greenish colour with flecks of white and gold inside and it would smell of burnt wood and sea salt.
7: How impulsive is your character?
Not very surprisingly! Taeral tries to think things out before doing them, he is much more a fan of having a plan that just going and doing things on a whim and anything sudden or unexpected, despite he can handle it, does tend to stress him out a fair bit. Unless it's an actual situation where he can't lean against a wall n think of course, then he'll be as impulsive as he likes, but usually thats not a natural reaction to him. Plans before stupid, sudden shit, please and thank you.
Quill:
58: What’s a habit that needs to be broken?
Honestly I'd say Quill's baddest habit is not talking about things and bottling stuff; its a little funny because Quill is kind of an open book so with most things that bother her she usually comes clean pretty quick. As my dear friend Jayson one said, Quill trying to bottle things is like pouring water into a thimble. But the one thing she struggles with is when someone pisses her off or does something she dislikes that makes her specifically hurt or angry she has weird hang ups coming forward to talk about.
I think its something about appearing weak or feeling bad about being hurt by something but she's working on it. It's something that certainly needs to be sorted less another Florence situation arises but thankfully she's doing better with it now.
41: What’s a texture/sound your character cannot stand?
Interesting... hmn. I feel like the sound of like- blacksmith's hammers on metal makes her twitch? Like the consistent plink, plink, plink sound. I also feel in that case the sound of water dripping would drive her fucking insane if left long enough, she loves rain but that has layers to it. It has texture its hitting so many different things and the rhythm is uneven but with a single drip like water dripping from a roof she would hate. Her ears are super sensitive so anything rhythmic sounds would drive her fucking nuts.
Alexandra:
2: Do they consider themselves an optimist? Pessimist? Realist? What are they like in actuality?
Alexandra, herself, would probably consider herself an outright optimist. Even in situations where she's utterly terrified and anxious beyond belief and truly believe theres no way out she will always raise her voice and keep her crew in good spirits, even if she cannot put herself in that place and believe it fully herself she understands its important to have share the minuscule amounts of belief with the people shes working with for it to grow and spread.
I want to say truthfully that shes stuck somewhere between realist and optimist but sticks firmly more to the side of optimistic. She's always looking on the silver lining for things and its very unlike her to struggle in finding even thinly stretched ones. She does her best.
47: Do they consider themselves funny? How do they use humor?
Hmnn... Alex tends to consider herself vaguely funny, she knows she can make people laugh and thats important but she doesn't consider herself like overly hilarious. Folks like Cornelius she'd consider more hilarious than her, better at telling and delivering jokes and sarcasm.
Humor for her often comes off as dry sarcasm with a hint of a smile or a good, healthy amount of teasing but the way she would use it would usually be a show of comfort. She does her best to read folks to make sure making jokes isn't an appropriate thing during the time; but its not too uncommon for her to use humor to make light of a situation that might be difficult for her.
Luther:
69(nice): Which do they value more? Journey or Destination?
OUGHHGHh this is a hard one! Luther's job is being a historian, specifically researching and making information about cultures and places available to people. He loves learning traditions and the ways people did things so long ago and hows its been translated, tweaked and upgraded, had its own little handful spice added to it over the years to make it tied to its roots yet still feel like its progressed and traveled with people throughout the ages.
And in saying this, as much as the destination, finishing a breakthrough and having hard work pay off or even just going through something with someone close to him all for it to end in a satisfying way is a good and wonderful thing. The strides, moments and things that caused that to happen are what make it memorable in its own way and I feel like for Luther's case it'd be the journey.
Sure, he can say that he found out something that led to a breakthrough and ended up discovering something that might otherwise have been missing for years but the time leading up to that, figuring things out with friends, going places and seeing things, the times of laughing and struggling through what seem like impossible puzzles is something he'd hold close and relate to the accomplishment more than the accomplishment itself.
#thank you so much for these reed these were a delight to answer!#my ocs#luther knox#luther#quill hickory#quill#alexandra#alexandra lore#taeral#taeral fenrir#dnd

25-50
Soooo… I take forever to do these things, sooooorrryyyy!
26. What would your character say their best trait would be?
Idk, probs that she’ s nice or something? I literally have never thought about how my characters feel about themselves???
Great start!
27. What is your character’s greatest fear? Deep, irrational?
That she ends up accidentally, or even intentionally, like her father in her attempt to over throw his rule. I’d say she’s terrified to become a hypocrite, all these years facing against her family and the way the rule/conduct themselves to end up doing or being exactly like them would be nightmare inducing for her.
28. What is currently motivating your character to stay with the party?
She killed the other party… In all fairness, it was an accident.
But for real, before meeting her current Crew™ her biggest fear was leading her Old Party and being shunned by the very peoples with who she was coming to aid/save. Of course, she stays with them because at the end of the day she loves them and enjoys their company but there are obviously a lot of other reasons to stay: she doesn’t know the land (her Old Party were going to teach her when they reached ‘safety’), she doesn’t have any ties on the new planet apart from a single group of rebels from her home world who aren’t the easiest on the eyes, she hardly speaks the language or understands the customs/culture of this new planet, and probably even more that I haven’t thought about. Bottom line is that she needs them.
On a happy note, they need her too.
29. What are your character’s hobbies and interests outside of their class?
I’m translating these q’s for a book and I don’t know enough about dnd (or my fucking characters for that matter) to answer.
30. What would most people think when they first see your character?
Tall. Like, freakishly tall.
31. What stereotypical group role does your character play in the party? (The Mom, the Mess, the Comic Relief, etc. Optionally: What role would your character play in the “Five Man Band” structure?)
Well, she’s technically the leader I guess. It’s kind of her quest they’re all on but at the same time the others tend to take her place leading the sub groups while she figures out a plan. I guess she might be The Man in The Chair or Behind the Curtain.
32. What is your character the most insecure about?
Maybe her intelligence, like not being the smartest person in the room. She’s known (even on the new planet) for being super strong and a great fighter, but she detests that viewpoint because it makes it difficult for people (and herself) to differentiate between the ‘bad guys’ in her family and the ones who’ve been fighting the Good Fight, like her.
33. What person does your character admire most?
I think I’ve answered this before and it had something to do with liking people who could be strong and caring at the same time. Or something sappy like that.
34. What does your character admire and dislike the most about the player character sitting to your left?
Translating for a book her so I’ll answer about how my character feels about the other four members of the main cast:
J: PRO: very understanding, never have to explain or defend herself to him - he always gets it. CON: not who she thought he would be.ME: PRO: loyal, despite having their little spats, at the end of the day ME would die for her. CON: not very understanding.HH: PRO: funny, can relax the whole mood at a moments notice. CON: reckless, is usually the only reason they get into trouble.M: PRO: is the closest to her in age and as a result is like her best friend, there’s almost nothing she hates about M. CON: I literally can’t think of one Z could have against M.
35. Why is your character’s lowest stat their lowest (the in-character reason, not “because there’s no reason for a wizard to have 16 strength, duh”)?
Not applicable.
36. What would be your character’s theme song/favorite band/favorite genre of music?
Something folky?
37. What stereotypical role would your character play in a high school AU/if they attended a normal high school? (Nerd, jock, bully, goth, etc.)
A toss up between the Loner or the Class President.
38. What treasure/item/artifact that your character has collected during the adventure is the most important to them?
She doesn’t/can’t really collect stuff, survival mode, y’know.
39. Is there any particular weapon, item, etc. that your character longs to find?
No? Her fight isn’t after something material.
40. Where does your character feel the most at home?
I think I’ve tried answering this before and couldn’t answer, probably at her Uncle’s place though, because it has the best memories for her.
41. Does your character care about how they’re perceived by others? How do they change themselves to fit in with other people?
I think yes, as she’s keeping her identity a secret. As a result I’d say she tends to distance herself out of fear of slipping up that she’s related to the enemy. Her entire plan rest on being supported by a lot of people and the idea that where she comes from could hurt her chances of success would be stressful.
42. What does your character think is the true meaning of life?
Broooo, this too deep for 10:41am.
43. What is your character’s scent? (Bonus points for a description that sounds like it could be from a bad [or awesome] fanfic.)
lol, B.O. probably, she’s a preteen running around in the woods.
44. Does your character think more with their heart or their brain?
Heart.
45. What is your character’s most recent or frequent nightmare?
I don’t wanna be cliché and say the murder of her older brother and mother, or her fear of failing overall but… I’m gonna be cliche and say those are the two things she probably has nightmares over.
46. What opinion does your character have on [CERTAIN ESTABLISHED GROUPS/AUTHORITIES IN THE GAME WORLD]? (Dragonmarked Houses, royal crown, etc.)
There are a lot of little, influential groups that she comes across and some of them live up to her expectations and others don’t. Overall, she has the opinion that any group in a position of power needs to do more harm than good, and act as both protector and provider to their people. That’s regardless of whether they’re just a random clan that walk around together, or the ‘police-type unit’ in this world, or the political rulers, she doesn’t care how small your reach is, if you rule - you better do it well.
47. How did your character spend their childhood? Where did they grow up/who were their childhood friends?
Pretty sure I’ve answered this before? Um, just recap I guess - she was born second heir to the throne on her world, spent her childhood hanging out with her Guard, learning and training under royal tutors and trainers. Fucked up along the way and got her ass banished, was sad, lived with her uncle who subsequently became her teacher for everything, and spent quality time with her brother as a result, she was then welcomed back out of banishment for a short period of time before she ‘defected’. And, technically, she’s still a child, so the contents of the book are her ‘growing up’ so to speak.
48. What aspect of your character’s future are they most curious about? (If they could know one thing about the future, what would it be?)
Whether they’ll die before they achieve their goals. Morbid I know, but this is war.
49. What colors are associated with your character?
Blue, Black, Purple and White.
50. Who in the party would your character prioritize rescuing, in dire circumstances?
Probably M or HH, both J and ME prove themselves to be able to get out of any situation on their own but sometimes HH can get overwhelmed or distracted and then can’t save himself and M has yet to prove herself as capable enough to handle anything that comes her way.
#lol don't expect the other two q's to be answered any time soon#I got called into work and now im tired#writing#wip#crafiet#wassup bruh

Batman Seven Years Au part 2
The Intern makes the swap over to Criminalology and Psychology since having a degree in both fields would be a good asset in the work of vigilantism. Due to genetics the intern is built like a stick and kinda scrawny so they lose intimidation in the stature and scale catagories. They only come up to Bruce’s shoulders when the tw o first meet. They end up when everyone returns being barely an inch taller then Bruce. They did get a little help in the height department around year 3 and a half. Their vigilante/hero alias is Dart, named for both the poison dart frog and the game darts, their main shtick is using laced darts, gas canisters and other methods to administer, hallucinogens, anesthetic, fear toxins, sedatives, and anti-toxins at Dart’s leisure. They take several pages out of scarecrow’s book in that regard. Their gear contains bulletresistent plating and armor on the torso, thighs, upper arm and neck. They also have shin guards wrist guards that extend into bracers and gloves. The gloves cover their hands completely and have gripping material to help them grab a hold and carry objects.
Dart doesn’t wear a Cowl or Domino mask and instead opts for a gas mask, helmet, purge mask combo. With a built in voice scrambler. The lower half looks like this
While it transitions to this for the upper half.
The rest of their costume is this dark navy/ dark green color body suit with the armor a similar color and layered on top they also have steel toed army boots. For carrying items they have two belts and a bandolier for gas canisters and darts an a small backpack filled to the brim with medical supplies they also have a cloak/trench coat thing that kinda resembles this:
Just make it this beigeish greenish color a fair bit more raggedy and a hood and it’s a bit of a dead ringer for what I’ve got in my head. The neon highlights of the costume are originally the same yellow color as Batman’s emblem but shifted to a sickly neon acid green around the time they hit their growth spurt.
The Intern/ Dart’s real name is Isea Conners and is a foster kid that got kicked from house to house a lot. Isea gets adopted by the Conners who live in Gotham. Mr. and Mrs. Conner died from exposure to Joker venom 2 years before the story begins. Isea has brown hair hazel eyes and is nearsighted and has prescription glasses for that.
Tweedledumbass is Ryan Conners Isea’s foster/adopted brother. Ryan was the one of the tweedles that brought in magic to the mix. His alias is Avalon named for the island of the same name in Arthurian Legend. He fights using magic summoning fireballs, lightning, water, gusts of wind, tornados and dust devils etc. Avalon wears a pair of ski goggles over the signature domino mask has a metal mask over the lower half of his face kinda like Slade from the original teen titans cartoon. Built in voice changer and filters here too. Has a more wizardy/archaic vibe compared to Dart’s cyberpunk. Still has bulletproof protection. Doesn’t have shin guards. Has leather vest, boots, vambraces and leather pouches. Has a pair of black leather pants. has a hooded cloak jacket and shawl layered very similarly to the assassins from the assassins creed franchise. Has a much brighter color scheme with whites and fucking neon fuchsia. Isea keeps giving him shit for being an eyesore.
Emil Heikkinen is a Finnish transfer student and the Tweedledee of the trio and is the group’s hacker and Informant. Emil is responsible for the memory part of the spell since humans are biological computers. His Alias is Weaver as in the Golden silk orb-weaver spider. As long as you have tech your caught in his web. He doesn’t do a lot of field work but when he does his suit looks like something pulled straight out of Tron. His signature color would be grey. His helmet looks like it has a set of spider eyes where the visor would be.
Kavion Sutton is an African American man who is focused on aerospace engineering and uses quantum mechanics to cut down on travel distance through worm holes and teleportation. He builds most of the team’s gear himself and makes all of the hardware. His alias is Fossa as in the predator from Madagascar. He uses a custom pair of handguns that use non-lethal ammunition. Tracking glow in the dark paint, hardening gel, ice, taze etc. he did go through the proper channels to have a permit to have a gun on hand. Kavion is the one wearing the heaviest armor out of all of them and his gear would be similar to that of the winter soldier but with a full helmet. Associated with burgundy.
Julia Tasis-Woods is the Afro-Mexican woman who takes charge of Lexcorp and Wayne Enterprises by capitalizing on the power vacuum. Julia joins the group around the year 2 mark having traveled to Gotham having heard rumors of vigilantes running around. Julia wants in and joins the crew as Viper. Julia ends up being the groups main source of funding. Julia fights with a pair of brass knuckles, and fights like a boxer when it comes to combat. A jumpsuit with padding and a helmet with a reinforced glass visor and a built in mouth guard/gas mask. Enough bullet proof resistant armor to protect the vitals. Has three brass knuckle sets. A standard one, one with spikes and laced with some of Dart’s toxins, and a set with built in tazers. Signature color is a dark forest green.
Ikram Safar is a Muslim teen who comes into contact and subsequently bonds with the orange lantern ring. She isn’t corrupted immediately by the ring due to being completely blind since birth. Meeting the rest of the team helps stave it off along with an ever growing collection of dice. She does succumb to the ring but manages to claw her way back to control thanks to everyone else. Her alias is Madiya which is the English spelling of the Arabic word مضيئة which according to google translate means luminous. Her generated suit is a full body suit with the main body is orange with it extending halfway to the elbows and to the knees. The rest of the suit is black aside from orange on the palms of her hands, the bottom of her feet, and a solid ring around her ankles and wrists. Ikran bears a orange shayla that has its ends emblazoned with the orange lantern emblem. Her domino mask is a single piece of orange metal that has no markings for where the eyes would be on other masks.
Random character details and stuff
I got Isea by failing to spell Isaiah. I went off pure pronunciation.
Isea is non-binary
Isea’s bio parents were Hungarian
When I say Isea is about an inch taller than Bruce I say that when Isea is going barefoot while Bruce is in full Batman gear.
Isea and Ryan were drifting apart when the story begins.
Ryan has a British accent
Ikram collects dice that are slightly bigger than standard dnd dice. Being about 1.5x bigger, this is so the carved numbers and logos can be both bigger and deeper allowing Ikram to feel the designs and the design details better. Ikram will also collect unusually shaped dice. Like this wizard set.
Ryan is the only one who doesn’t have a college education and does not plan on getting one. He sees college as a waste of his time and money.
Ryan, Emil, and Kavion are fine when they are split up or have someone supervising them, but when the three of them are left alone their shared IQ drops to 23.
