OCs as Tragic Greek Figures

tagged by: @blissfulalchemist (thank you ✌️🎆👻) to do this uquiz to find out who my ocs are as tragic greek figures. 

beatrice blood | original work in progress: seeing red

Bellerophon

chimera-killer, pegasus-tamer, eater of your own soul: icarus flew too close to the sun, but you flew too close to gods who would prefer to remain untouched. could you not find enough joy in being a hero, a husband, a father and a king? olympus will never accept your presence upon its mountaintop, so best quit while you're ahead, before your horse bucks.

Arachne

adept arachne, the things which you craft are born from years of careful practice, focused effort, and a drop of divine inspiration. your finished product shows the skills which you have honed over your lifetime, so take pride in that, but don't proclaim yourself a peerless artisan. and, by the gods, show humility when you've been beaten.

claudia dardashti headcanon:

she's typically wearing some form of gloves. it has nothing to do with really anything other than she doesn't like skin to skin contact unless she's fond of you. and to be honest, she just does not like touching things with bare hands, either.

there's more to this that i might expand on, but i feel like basically the gist is, cloud's always wearing gloves unless she's fond of you, and then she's not.

[theconstantine-moved]

okay, i finally figured out claudia's bare bones.

okay, in her main verse, claudia’s an investigative journalist who used to be highly regarded until her daughter went missing and she started writing about what others believed were conspiracy theories, but were actually the truth. but no one believed her because the people she was trying to put out in the spotlight kept covering themselves up.

it doesn’t help that she can talk to and hear the dead (specifically her brother that went missing when she was younger) and can't stay dead. so, like, they thought she was a whole nutter-butter before, but they now had a reason to believe it. so she never got jobs working for a paper after that. she ended up working at her father’s various hotels, selling her art and other’s art in his gallery halls, instead.

oh, and she hides people in need in her father's hotels. she's also a vigilante on the dl, occasionally. which is mostly done to find her daughter - or so she says.

this is the gist for basically every verse, except stated otherwise. the only difference is sometimes she's an assassin for her biological mother delphine. verse dependent for the last part though. i've decided to leave that part out.

💘

💘 which ocs find each other in every lifetime?

Thank you for sending! ✌🏽🎉@mschupacabra

Claudia Dardashti & Beth Heydari — To be honest, I was so close to saying Claudia and Alexander, but since I kill him off, it doesn’t make sense. So, I went with the next best thing: Beth and Claudia. Beth is Claudia’s rock and keeps her from making impulsive choices, and Claudia helps Beth loosen up a bit. They are wives. No matter what, they’re always there for one another and balance one another out and think the other is the most amazing person in the universe. Beth helped Claudia escape a simulation where she had to keep finding her, so Claudia feels indebted to her, but Beth did it by accident so she doesn’t feel like she owes her anything. She just loves her and thinks she’s an interesting person. And Claudia thinks Beth is smart and the bravest woman she knows.

Claudia makes mistakes sometimes and lies, but mostly for what she thinks is Beth's safety, because her daughter went missing on her watch. But Beth lies, too, and does some pretty questionable things herself for her family. But their relationship is pretty healthy other than those occasional lies.

tw: death

also , more claudia dardashti thoughts because i'm thinking about her and the palms today. but, i feel like when claudia ‘dies’ she doesn’t come back ‘wrong’. she comes back kind of 'tipsy' or 'drunk' the first few minutes to an hour. she is mostly healed though - most of the time - it depends on the injury and how serious it is. and she has a high pain tolerance. however, she doesn't like pain all that much. so she doesn't make a point to get injured.

hc + 😨 for a fear-themed headcanon (for claudia daenzer)

in any verse with you (you sent for your version, but i just talked about her as a whole), or even my own stories, claudia is afraid of losing the ones she loves. she's not afraid of dying or losing. she's afraid of losing those she cares about most. it's something that does keep her up at night, especially when she knows she's managed to piss a lot of people off over the years. she's lost marta in most of her verses and she would hate to lose anyone else due to her own stupidity or her own ego. so she tries to not make the same mistakes twice. she just fails most of the time because she always thinks she's right.

and with love interests, she usually picks people who are able to protect themselves or who can protect her that way she doesn't have to worry about them. however, they tend to get into trouble too or die - ie like your evan getting into trouble - so yeah, it's just her always trying not to lose people and failing. which is life. losing people.

nostalgia : what makes them nostalgic , and why ? (for claudia dardashti)

What makes Claudia nostalgic is the scent of baked goods and the watching of a few vintage movies. They don’t even have to be good vintage movies, she just remembers watching them with the people she loves and that brings back a sense of nostalgia for her (don't know what it is about this family and movies but they're important to them). Then, the baked goods -- the baked good, she would bake with her grandmother and her nanny so she has a soft spot for baking. If she wasn’t into the art scene, she’d be a baker for real. Actually, in some of her aus she's a baker.

thank you for sending! ✌️🌺 @thelittlestspider

for a random headcanon. have this.

claudia dardashti & claudia daviau

both versions of her tend to wear gloves. she doesn’t have an aversion to germs or anything, and she barely likes how they look on her. for her, more-or-less, it’s like a thing where she does not want to touch people because she was often poked and evaluated as a child by doctors and scientists too. like to it’s her way of having a sense of control. and when she takes her gloves off for someone, she really gives a damn about them. enough to be close enough to touch.

♡ + puzzles. uty.

thanks for sending! ♥️♥️♥️✌️☕@moonsaints

hamia zaid

h’s whole thing is she loves visiting shadow palms due to the fact that it’s just one big puzzle. there’s so much of it to break down. so much that’s new to discover that makes her question everything she’s ever learned in life. she personally does not want to leave the town of shadow palms anytime soon, due to that. marta

marta roscoe

marta is not like luna, delphine, or cloud. she just cannot handle mysteries, which is why she’s perfect for her story. cause she sees into some ancient hole in the fabric of the universe and she does not tell anyone what she sees, because it just seems like a lot to deal with. so, uhm, she just kind of keeps it to herself until the end of the universe becomes a problem she has to fix.

cloud daviau & cloud dardashti

her occupations tend to have to do with puzzles in any verse she's in and it doesn't matter how i work her. whether she’s a detective of some kind, a journalist, or working in art, she likes putting the pieces of intricate puzzles together for the sake of solving. she gets such a kick out of it. even if it’s a really creepy puzzle or mystery, she wants to solve the puzzle – whatever it is. it’s her one big problem: her need to find answers.

cassian barakzai

cass used to play 'clue' with her sister a lot and watch the 'clue' film a lot growing up. she was into all that agatha christie stuff and sherlock holmes was someone she'd jokingly call her best friend. so like, cass is a mystery lover. thing is though, she's not into that armchair detective stuff unless it's got to do with magic stuff, and even then she is a bit irritated by it. in her verse with john and your stuff she's like hella into what he does, despite knowing things will go sideways if she's not careful, due to who he is. and in her main story, she just tries to help as much as she can even though she knows her best is sometimes someone's worse day ever.
