Name: Leah (Meaning Weary) Castelo (Spanish surname meaning Castle)

I like this, it definitely sets up the theme of her being paranoid and sheltered really well! And all her themes give me an idea…

Age:14

Strife Specibus: Sewing Needles 

I like this. I also like the idea of her using umbrellakind as an extra for… secret reasons. Reasons I’ll tell you later.

Fetch Modus:Im not quite sure on this one? 

Hmmm. Since she likes crafting, maybe it could involve knitting? Like each item is given a different combination of knits and pearls and if she wants to release the item, she has to knit the pattern Exactly right.

Symbol and meaning: A little mushroom! She made it as a patch herself when she was first starting out sewing and crafting

It’s so cuuute.

Handle: anomicAristocrat 

This is definitely interesting. I’m guessing she has little external contact w/ other people and so she doesn’t understand social standards? I like that she’s kind of self aware of this, too.

Quirk:types in a very lazy manner without really pausing in between her words she shortens words if she can tho its easier this way ig she tends to go on and on and on without really caring if other people get a chance to talk (no caps, no punctuation, uses some text lingo but not a ton, and hardly ever uses emoticons) 

Another interesting element of this to think about is how her typing style might change when she talks to other people. Does she speak to her brother different? In her etsy page, does she use a more professional style of typing or does she keep it relaxed?

Special Abilities (if any):she can “hide” herself from others but only when there is more than 2 people. this meaning she can easily make herself not noticed by others but only in a group setting. if its a one-on-one convo then she cant

Very voidy, ooo.

Personality:Leah is a very lethargic yet paranoid person. she doesnt trust others and shes very apathetic to others problems even if she was the one who caused them. she holds onto information only giving it to those she trusts most and you can be certain its not you. she is patient and very observant, making notes of anything she deems as something she can use later which has made her room a mess of notebooks and papers with odd bits of information and doodles. shes very creative however! this can be both a good and bad thing…

(Extra info: she runs a etsy type of store selling patches, scarves and gloves, and many many odds and ends.the house she currently lives in with her older brother is a gigantic, very old house. he has holed himself up  in one of the wings and shes been banned from going there but she has the rest of the house to herself. there are is nobody near them for days so she lives in a lot of isolation. leah put herself into a online school but is currently working at a much higher level than she should be. her both has many contacts outside of their fortress and thus gets any supplies that either of them order in a…. helicopter airdrop. the drop is miles away and leah isnt allowed to get the stuff. only her brother is allowed which is one of the only times she sees him. ) <— this is all probably pointless but i typed it so shrug 

It’s not pointless at all! It provides me a lot of extra context for her. This is also where I can finally talk about my idea. Okay, so… with the royalty/history and mushroom themes as well as the being trapped in a manor/castle… she kind of a little bit reminds me of Princess Peach. I mean, Peach is Princess Toadstool. There’s not really a Tone I can add to her with this beyond aesthetics (I might especially pull from the Shadow Queen), but you can definitely give her more of a… she dislikes the situation she’s in sort of personality that can work towards her rebelling and trying to seek out the unknown, such as playing sburb. She’s sick of being treated like a damsel, who isn’t allowed to explore or easily take part in all the things she enjoys.. …Even if she is naturally a little paranoid because of how she’s been raised. 

Interests: Crafts, most sciences but her favorite is mycology, she also highly enjoys history! focusing on the dark ages and many secret societies, she has many time lapses of the forest near her and loves studying them

Title: im not really sure on this tbh ???

She’s a vooooid playerrrr. She likes mysterious things, she’s creative and artsy, she’s good at blending in with the crowd…. She’s an heir of void. She inherited the lack of knowledge, the mystery, and she can passively change what is and isn’t known!

Land: same here :(

Land of Castles and Captives, maybe? It can be a land of espionage, kidnapped rulers, and our young hero having to use the powers of the void to hero it up creatively.

Dream Planet: Derse

Design: 

Hair/accessories: So I edited her barrettes a little. I thought they were cute, but they were kind of just sprinkled on randomly, and they didn’t match her color theme. So I moved them into select locations and changed them to that peachy color. I also gave her some big earrings to be reminiscent of Peach’s! They could even be homemade, since she’s the DIY crafty type. 

Dress/shirtskirt: I wanted to add a waistline and border detail that reminded of peach’s dress while retaining the general shape, because I did really love her look. I also updated the symbol a little. I wanted to give it juuust a touch more color variety without taking away the simplicity of the design. It looks more like a recognizable Mushroom now. 

Shoes/tentacles: The shoes ended up being smothered by the tentacles a little. I decided to give her some small pointed pumps, edited from fan-troll’s sprite sheet, and I redid the tentacles. I liked them in theory, but they looked a bit too much like jellyfish limbs? So now maybe they’re stuffed velvet tentacles with posable wires inside that allows her to shape them to her aesthetic! 

I love herrrr. Thank you for sharing and I hope my recommendations helped!
