The Base History of my oc: Viola Pizzelle

Soooo…. I've been debating on making this for a while now but this character has been enough of a presence on my Instagram and AO3 account that I feel like I need to sort of make a proper explanation as to who this character is, and who knows, maybe I'll turn it into some sort of series where I explain in somewhat decent detail about my ocs and their history.

So, Viola Pizzelle. They are an oc/self insert-ish character I created back in 2020, when I became really into Jojo part 5, started having weird stomach issues, and needed comfort during a global pandemic. She was just a silly little character I threw into a one shot I wrote in a notebook and showed to my friend after I had sketched her out on a piece of paper. There are a couple of early sketches lying around and if I ever find them, I will show them to you but the main elements were she was pretty much the most basic looking of the cast to show how out of place she was and she had bandages around her neck from a mysterious incident because ooooh drama. Her Stand's name was King of the clouds despite its ability having nothing to do with clouds or the sky or atmosphere whatsoever. I just thought it was a cool name. She was mainly there to satisfy my need for human interaction and my crush on Giorno Giovanna (fueled by the writings of @mrsgiovanna ). 

Eventually I started to come up with actual ideas for actual stories for her which eventually resulted in her becoming a full fledged character and a spot in my dumb little Everyone lives/nobody dies au. And other aus because I've been going through a rough time and need to project but also because I'm an idiot nerd.

Her actual background (backstory)

Viola Chiara Pizzelle, born March 30th in a small, gang torn town by  the name of Lonesome Town (because I'm just that good at naming shit.) to Vittorio and Pearla Pizzelle. She's the youngest of 5 siblings, actually being considered the runt due to her lack of impressive physical strength and just average intelligence and average everything else compared to her siblings. She was kept from school often to help her mother with her stolen Botox filler operation and when she did go to school, she had trouble keeping up. Many around their small town knew of this, but with people dropping dead left and right from said gang violence, she became the least of anyone's concerns.

She was bullied by most of her siblings for being the runt, earning the name 'runty' from her eldest sister. Her mother's constant criticism and negativity towards her didn't help. Her father was often absent and oblivious to all of it. Her friends were the only ones who put effort into getting her help, but once again, no one bothered with them.

Her anime origin story kicks in one night after she finally decides to stand up to her mother and tell her she wants to go to school full time. Her mother attacked her. She ran out of the house, just barely escaping her grasp before making it to the end of the street and collapsing by a lamppost.

She was sent to a hospital in Napoli where she was treated for her injuries (of origin they were unaware of) and a subsequent 'mysterious infection' (which wasn't an infection at all. It was a stand.) She spent 4 months in the hospital before being informed that her family could no longer pay for her stay and recovery. Around her final days there, she met a man by the name of Bruno Buccellati. He was there looking for a man who used to stay in the room she was taking residency in but stumbled upon her instead. He heard her story, invited her out to lunch where she realized this motherfucker was a gang member, ran away, nearly passed out from exhaustion, and then was offered a place to stay.

She would stay with Buccellati and his companions as Buccellati would pay for any medical expenses until she decides to go back home or until she is better. And thus is the beginning of the adventures of Viola Pizzelle.

Changes and facts:

Her Stand's name was changed. Formerly King Of The Clouds, their new name is Literary Nonsense, or L.N. as she calls them. Their ability is control over ink. She can turn them into solid objects and weapons (which is an interest that leads her into…an interesting career.) It grows and develops overtime, I'm just working out the details.

She is genderfluid bisexual. They go by Viola, Vala, Valerio, and Vincenzo depending on the set of pronouns they use. 

As of the start of their story, Viola is 16 and the story takes place a couple of months after the events of Vento Aureo.

Their last name is a food reference. Pizzelles are traditional Italian waffle cookies made from flour, eggs, sugar, butter or vegetable oil, and flavoring. 

She is the only one in her immediate family that has light colored hair.

She is a born Stand user. In her family, it skips a generation, so her father doesn't have it.

So that's it so far. A lot of this can be subject to change. A lot of things could be different than what it was before, yada yada yada.

Hope you enjoyed this little tidbit and if you would like to see more, let me know.
