Every couple of years I draw Kim as a witch for Halloween-- it was time I did it again!

Do you have other OCs? What are they like?

I have SO MANY ocs. Literally over 30 for WoW alone. But my main WoW characters(as in the ones I focus on the most And the ones that fill the role of the actual player in game/get all the big lore moments and powers) are Kimbetheli and her husband Jonathan: an optimistic and sweet warlock and a charming and lackadaisical rogue.

Kimbetheli is just. So sweet. She can win pretty much anyone over with her authentic happy attitude and big heart. She really cares about people, and wants to help everyone she can. Part of it comes from a traumatic childhood, so she has a bit of a savior/caregiver complex, and it can sometimes cause trouble, but she's clever enough and has enough support to get through anything.

She's very powerful; she's one of the most powerful warlocks in Azeroth, and her command of demons is impressive. She is not to be trifled with in combat. Her excessive use of fel energy, all for the sake of good, has resulted in a massive fel scar that originates in the center of her back and has crawled all the way up her shoulder and the side of her neck. If she attempted to become more powerful, it would likely rip her apart. She was very sick for a long time, particularly after the Legion campaign, when she had no choice but to obtain more power to help stymie the demon invasion.

She has a Wrathguard in her employment/bound to her, named Az'Barash, and he is a big dude, her bodyguard for all intents and purposes, and he's quite reserved but has been known to vocalize the occasional judgment. He's knowledgeable in terms of war strategy, and is physically formidable. He has the strength to almost cleave a man in two with his longblade.

She suffered quite a bit of mistrust in her early adventuring days, because warlocks historically have been less than virtuous, and often downright evil, but she proved herself time and time again, and now, as co-leader of one of the most significant guilds/auxiliary forces in Azeroth, her positive reputation precedes her.

Jonathan, more commonly referred to as "Blerple," which is a nickname given to him in his youth by gnomes, is snarky, clever, and very handsome. He's very much a "mind your own business" type person though, doesn't seek out strangers or dive headfirst into situations like Kim does. He has a penchant for trouble and has notoriously bad luck though; he can and will get dragged into any and every situation regardless of his desire to engage or avoid it. He had quite a traumatic childhood, which he is very private about, and it contributed to his preference for his strange nickname as opposed to his proper name. He came from a prevalent family, so was technically a little rich boy turned street rat.

While Kimbetheli is the more powerful one overall, Blerple is still quite a formidable adversary. He has incredible sleight of hand, makes an excellent thief, and his ability to charm others in conversation allows him to eavesdrop and obtain information easily. He's got an excellent memory(except when he doesn't, like the time he misplaced his hearthstone which had disastrous consequences) so is perfect for reconnaissance.

He dual wields shortblades/daggers, is very swift, and has a wide array of poisons at his disposal, and his interest in engineering has allowed him to design and create a handful of devices to aid in his travels. He can find a way out of any situation, if he has enough time. He thinks on his feet. That quickness of thought is the very thing which saved his life as a child. He doesn't like speaking about what happened to his family, but anyone around Stormwind territory can recognize his last name(which is why he avoids speaking it.)

He had the pleasure of making a good name for himself though in the very organization he and Kimbetheli now co-lead; It's former leader became a father figure for him in his late teens/early 20s, but he definitely has left a sour taste in more than one mouth, either through purposeful meddling or genuine misfortune, and it often comes back to haunt him. He was a lot more of a troublemaker then, before the world grew too serious, and the burden of responsibility fell on his back. But he and Kim share that responsibility, and take it quite seriously; They do whatever they can when they can, and sometimes don't get enough time for themselves because of it, which is a real shame.

They are just. So perfect together. Blerple loves her to the moon and back; he will do anything and everything he can for Kim, is often dragged into good samaritan situations by her, which he will definitely complain about, but always does what he can to help, and finds a sense of satisfaction in pleasing her, and in making a difference in people's lives. They make an incredible team, have done some incredible things together over the years and been through countless life or death situations. He always has her back and she has his. Basically, they make each other better people, help each other thrive.

She brings out this softness in him, lets him be vulnerable in a way no one else does. And he makes her feel loved and supported, lets her light shine brightly; She lost her family at a young age, and struggled to find connections in her youth, didn't have a group of people to love her the way he ended up finding. So having someone to care about and to be cared for in return is incredible to her. He makes her laugh frequently, and feel valued, and she just,,,, god she loves him so much. Every day she looks at him and feels this sense of warmth spread all through her, this sense of fondness that never wears off.

They're a very affectionate couple. Blerple is a very physical guy in general; He gestures often, is very expressive, and when he's around Kim, he feels the need to be physically connected to her; he holds her hand, or plays with her hair, or wraps an arm around her. He speaks to her more softly than everyone else, always leans in a bit, like he's drawn to her like a magnet. And her eyes are always bright and fond when she's speaking to him; she puts her entire focus on him, and it makes him feel fluttery and happy. They're busy people, with little privacy or alone time, so they're not adverse to PDA. He'll steal kisses from her whenever he's able, and she is more than willing to oblige in return. <3

They're very devoted to each other, never really left the honeymoon phase (constant danger and stress make it easier to forgive small things and just focus on the good times together) but they are open to the occasional threesome if they have a mutual crush. Kim is straight, but Blerple is bisexual, and they lowkey have a shared type: handsome, witty, and just a little stupid. Flynn Fairwind? Yeah, they bagged that. And then consequently helped him and Matthias Shaw get together.

They love playing matchmaker. They're both nosy as hell, and with Blerple's rogueish abilities and Kim's enthusiasm, they've been known to snoop in other people's love lives more than once, especially their friends. Blerple will always deny his interest, peg it on Kim, but he's just as curious by nature as she is. Thankfully they share a decent sense of judgment, or else the two of them would be in very high need of a babysitter to keep them out of trouble.

They're just. Two incredible individuals who found each other and changed the world together. They're heroes to many, prominent figures in Azeroth, and the picture of a devoted wife and husband. There's so much love between them!!! While they'd both be open to being parents as well, it's not really in the cards, which makes them a little sad. The fel corruption Kim has dealt with has made her all but infertile, and it's not really reversible. They'd be open to adoption, but really their lives are almost too busy to really consider it anyways, and besides, as co-leaders of the Brotherhood of the Stag, they're more or less mom and dad to more than a handful of enthusiastic adventurers, and are certainly the mom and dad of their friend group. They find satisfaction there, and in occasionally mentoring Blerple's young cousin/niece Aeroka, who is a budding member of the Kirin Tor.

They have friends all over Azeroth, both Alliance and Horde side, and they have a lovely little cottage in the Jade Forest in Pandaria that they saved up together for, which is maintained regularly by a friend of theirs. They intend to retire there one day, and in the rare event they can manage a vacation, they're usually found there, snuggled up and relaxing and taking time to love each other. <3

I could go on forever about these two so if you have any questions please send them 🙏🙏🙏
