10 19 23 for the OC questions!
tysm for the ask!! <333
10. Introduce an OC with a complicated design?
Any oc that has tattoos is one I consider to be "complicated", but Marco adds on top of that really busy armor AND a sci-fi gun, so I'm gonna go with him.
Tumblr media
(it's part of why I've basically only ever drawn him once or twice, with most of his armor either off or covered lol)

19. Introduce an OC that means a lot to you (and explain why)
Oh okay! I think for this one, I'm gonna go with Zephyr <3 like I've mentioned before, she was really the first oc I had to build from the ground up, and so I feel really involved in a lot of her character. She has a lot of qualities that I admire in other people; a strong balance of physical and mental prowess, an impressive amount of discipline, an appreciation for the arts, a level head in intense situations, etc. I enjoy exploring and thinking about her relationship with her family and how that shaped her into the person she is today, and in some ways I feel like she represents a lot of things I'm not, but aim to be <3
23. Introduce an OC that has changed from your first idea concerning what the character would be like?
Oohh, interesting! I don't think I have many OCs that have undergone super drastic changes (at least while remaining the same ocs), but I have a few that have had minor changes. Sabina was originally a Mountain Dwarf before I decided that being a Meadow Folk fit her vibes better, Ruathym was originally going to be my first Ace OC before deciding BG3 was not really the best game to try that with (since he was basically constantly rebuffing advances from the other companions💀) and Vanessa's design has slowly been inching closer and closer to the default Jane Femshep design with the red hair lol

2, 4, 21, 31, 43 for the oc asks! c:
thank you for the ask!!
2. Do you have a personal favorite among your OCs?
I think they're all kind of on rotation for my #1 favorite at any given time! I definitely have some that are more developed than others, but most of that comes down to the amount of time I've had them. I'd say currently, my favorites would be Lydia Laidir and James Trevelyan (since i'm still in DA Hell), and Zephyr Skybreeze (one of my BG3 Tav's, I have a soft spot for her since she's the first OC I had to build her background out from the ground up)
4. A character you rarely talk about?
I had to think about this one for a bit, but I'm gonna go with Maya, my Pokemon Violet kiddo! No real reason for that, beyond that my love for Pokemon Violet comes in waves and is more often dormant. That, and most of what I talk about w/ my OCs is shipping related, and she's literally a child so. Not a lot to say there lol.
BUT I love her quite a lot! Violet is the first Pokemon game I ever felt like I was actually creating a character who had traits and personality (rather then gens 1-5 being pre-built and gens 6-8 feeling kinda blank). The classes helped a lot with that, I think! Her favorite teacher is Jacq, she's really good at math/science and anything related to Pokemon Battling, is kinda bored in Art Class and struggles with History and Languages (which is like the polar opposite of my academic experience lol). She shares Nemona's passion for battling but takes an analytical approach to it, and I think in the post-game I could envision her as a Pokemon Battle Professor when she's an adult <3 (though I haven't played the DLC yet so idk if that's in my canon 👀)
Also honorable mention to Marco, my ME Andromeda boy. I have so much love in my heart for this guy and literally no idea what to do with him ✌🏻
21. Your most artistic OC
Viola, my Dark Urge! I've mentioned it before but I like the idea of her sick and twisted urge fantasies lending themselves to an innate understanding of human anatomy, and sometimes when she wants to kill kill kill kill, she draws....killing, instead lol. It's therapeutic for her, I think in a similar way her faith is, and I like the idea of art being such a strong positive outlet that it's able to ground someone in reality.
31. Pick one OC of yours and explain what their tumblr blog would be like (what they reblog, layout, anything really)
Hm! Well seeing as how I barely maintain my own blog I'm not super sure how to answer this 😅 but I'll do my best!
I'll go with Zephyr, I think. I think she'd have one of those really fancy layouts with the small buttons and the small text and a cherry blossom overlay with constantly falling petals. She'd reblog a lot of academic literature, poetry, positive affirmations, and moodboards! She'd be intensely active for like two weeks and then ghost for three months, and rinse & repeat
43. Do you have any certain type when you create your OCs? Do you tend to favor some certain traits or looks? It’s time to confess
Physically: Ponytails for days, followed by long braids. Idk what it is, but multiple of my OCs (Sabina, Zephyr, James, Ruathym, Maya, Anwen, Vanessa, AELON even in Inquisition literally remembering some of these ocs have ponytails as I type this sentence lmao) pull their hair back into either a midlength ponytail, a braid, or transition between the two. It's a good look, what can I say~
Character-wise: I have noticed a theme starting to pop up my last couple OCs, of having wild periods of Young Adulthood before mellowing out by the events of the story (James, Lydia, Sabina). Other than that, I have a few characters who are begrudgingly bound to Not Be an Asshole by their moral compass, i.e. they're rude in almost every conversation but they make good Big Choices (Ruathym, Aelon, Vanessa, Act 3 Anwen)

patron saint quiz
tagged by @solas-backpack-mug, thank u for the tag! here is the quiz <3
Sabina Lancaster - patron saint of bones
patron saint of frameworks. of structures. of solidity. patron saint of things that break. patron saint of things that are left behind. the bones survive long after the body, the building: what is there left for them, when the rest has gone? what do bones do, with nothing to hold around them? who holds the bones?
tagging @modwyr and @bragganhyl, as well as anyone else who'd like to play!

on the topic of ocs, here's a simple but fun oc question: do your ocs let themselves cry?

Heya! 2, 6, 29, B from the uncommon asks for any/as many ocs as you'd like! c:
Ooh, thank you for the ask!! I think for these, I'll go with my Rook, Lydia Laidir and my Watcher, Sabina Lancaster <3
2. How easy is it for your character to laugh?
Lydia: Pretty easy, though it's rarely a genuine laugh and more of a little "heh" kinda laugh, and usually I think she's mostly interested in getting other people to laugh. I'd say she's more likely to really laugh at something that happened to be funny organically, rather than anything intended as an actual joke.
Sabina: Very easy. Sabina can a giggly mess sometimes, and she has a huge weakness for puns. It's not put on either - she genuinely just finds many aspects of life to be pretty funny, and she finds that laughter can, at times, lift the weight that's pretty much perpetually dragging her down.
6. Do they consider laws flexible, or immovable?
Lydia: The only law that matters to Lydia is the one written on her heart. The "law" allowed for her and her family to be enslaved in Tevinter, the "law" has kept her people in oppression by way of alienages and circle towers, and the "law" is what protects corrupt Rivaini nobles. She knows right from wrong, and she uses the compass of her heart to decide what she needs to do, not some words on paper held in a vault somewhere.
Sabina: Sabina gets why the laws are the way they are, she really does. She believes that most of the corruption in the world comes from either the misapplication of the law or the absence of it, but the laws themselves are there to keep people safe and make good choices. She's been in too many city underbellies and seen too many good people fall victim to those with no respect for the law, and on top of that, she recognizes each place she's visited has had slightly different laws to reflect the needs of their community. That being said, sometimes she believes you gotta do what you gotta do, and she is willing to bend the law (or hopefully find some kind of legal loophole) if she feels like it's obstructing true justice.
29. Do they usually live up to their own ideals?
Lydia: She tries so hard, but no, not really. Especially in her early days with the Lords, she did a lot of things that she later felt pretty ashamed of, such as stealing from the needy and directing her anger at those who didn't deserve it. Much of the reason she's in the Veilguard in the first place is because she's hoping to atone for some of those things. She does better nowadays, she only steals from those she deems can afford it, like nobles, and she's less likely to blow up in anger, but the latter one still happens more often than she'd like (though, given what she's goes through in datv her reactions are understandable).
Sabina: Usually? Yes, she wouldn't ask anything of other people she didn't think she was also fully capable of. She believes one should always be ready to help those in need, she believes in fairness and freedom of will, and above all, she believes in being an honest person. The last one is even a huge point of friction between her and Aloth, and the one she holds herself to the most strongly. Except, of course, when it comes to lying about who destroyed the Brass Citadel and placing the blame on Alvari. She really, truly believes it's the best course of action and that the Huana deserve to reclaim Ukaizo. Nevertheless, the lie tastes like ash in her mouth, and she feels from that point on like something fundamental had broken within her.
B) What inspired you to create them?
Lydia: Ever since the Inquisitor stabbed the Tevinter Imperium on the map at the end of Trespasser, I knew my hypothetical DA4 protagonist was going to be from Tevinter. And then we learned more about the game, and the Tevinter faction, the Shadow Dragons were....eh? They were fine, but not really what I was hoping for. And one of the other factions, the Lords of Fortune, just looked so cool, and Rivain sounded so cool, and the fact that Rook Laidir left a corrupt noble to die at the bottom of the ocean sounded so cool! So I came up with the idea of having a multicultural Rook, originally from Tevinter but who grew up in Rivain (which was then confirmed to be canon in the game, much to my surprise!) and when I decided she was going to be an elf, that's when the Tevinter slavery aspect entered into things. I'd also been watching a lot of Arcane at the time, and I think some aspects of Vi's character ended up rubbing off on Lydia subconsciously (especially the idea that she's very quick to choose violence as the solution, and that's she's a little uncomfortable with that fact)
Sabina: With so much going on in the world of Eora race-wise, I liked the idea of playing a character who was. Just a regular dude. I think Sabina has some of the most aspects of myself in her of any of my OCs, from her appearance to her love of animals to her aforementioned giggly disposition. I went with the Drifter background because I was originally going for a more con-man-esque character who fit into the archetype of the Dashing Rogue, before I realized that I enjoyed playing a character with a more rigid moral compass, and then I had to adapt her backstory to fit that. And then I made her a ranger after playing Dead fire and going ":) Deer!! :D"

weird fun facts about your oc(s)
rules: share some fun facts about your oc(s). they don't have to be relevant to their story, perhaps even better if they aren't. the weird ones are the best!
I was tagged by @solas-backpack-mug to share some odd fun facts! Thank you for the tag <3
Sabina Lancaster, Watcher of Caed Nua
Really loves singing, though more as a hobby then a profession like the Chanters
Every lie she tells eats away at her soul, she cannot stand being deceptive, even if it gets her into bad situations. When lying is unavoidable, however, she finds she is really, really good at it. That she's so good at selling falsehoods is part of what disturbs her about it.
She has two brothers, one older and one younger, and a younger sister. Of the four of them, she was definitely the most adventurous, and it often got her into trouble.
She really misses her siblings, and part of why she likes talking to Pallegina is bc it reminds her of when she used to gossip with her sister
Viola, the Dark Urge
As it turns out, understanding the human body's anatomy on as deep a level as The Urge provides lends itself quite well to sketching. One of the only possessions she woke up with on the nautiloid was a tattered sketchbook to the point of being unrecognizable, and one of the first things she did when she got to the Grove was buy a new one, which she uses on her adventures
She has a giggle that lies somewhere between the sound of a goose honking and a balloon being slowly deflated.
At the beginning of the story, her sense of taste was out of whack, as in some food would taste other than it should or simply lack flavor altogether, and she has to slowly regain her sense of taste as the story goes on
Ruathym Dhalmass
Killer hand drum player, once he gets going he busts out beats like you'd never believe. Not that he'd ever let anyone know that, of course. He has a reputation to uphold, you understand.
While the Myconid Circle he grew up in was not the one we see in the game, he was familiar with that Circle and his presence in the group made passing through the underdark much easier.
Isn't quite as mean as everyone makes him out to be, he's just very comfortable being flippantly mean in, what he thinks, a lighthearted way that actually comes out off very harshly. This is why he basically only gets along with Halsin, Jaheira, and Lae'zel, because the first can see through his exterior and is touched by his love of the natural world, the second sees the attempt at banter for what it is and plays along, and the third has been dealing with militarized githyanki her whole life and is unfazed by him (though he cuts it out with Lae'zel once they become something more serious)

⚔️ - for anwen and 🌨️- for james and 🌈- for every oc u can think of hehe
Thank you for the ask!!
⚔️ - How does your OC handle conflict?
Anwen Hawke: She's very hands-off when it comes to conflict, especially if it only tangentially involves her. As an apostate, she's only survived this long by keeping her head low and causing as little of a stir as is possible - even if it compromises her own values. This is especially true of Act 1 Anwen. If the conflict has become unavoidable, like towards the latter half of the game, it is because she has been cornered, and this leads her to act unpredictably.
In both the Qunari Crisis and the Mage Rebellion, she digs in her heels and ends up paying for it. While it would have been safer to hand Isabela over to the Arishok, she'd ceded enough to this Qunari bastard already. She nearly dies in their duel. It would have been safer to abandon the mages and leave them to the Templars, but she *knows* they weren't involved with the explosion. She is forced to flee Kirkwall after her battle with Meredith.
If nothing else, she tries to direct as much of the damage from a conflict to herself instead of others, because she can't can take it.
🌨️ - If this oc had a day free from all their responsibilities, how would they spend it?
James Trevelyan: Okay so y'know that scene in the Tinkerbell movie where Tinkerbell is introduced to the Tinker Fairies and they have all these innovative devices? James would love it there. If he could have one day without his responsibilities as a The Inquisitor and the Noble Second Son of the Trevelyan Family, he would hole up in his quarters and tinker away at little gadgets and the like the whole day. He already makes plenty of traps and delayed explosives for the Inquisition as an Artificer, but I think he'd like to create something just as complex that's non-lethal, too, like a clock or something :)
🌈 - Do you associate any colors with them?
every oc - hehe >:)
Katherine Cousland: Blue and Silver
Anwen Hawke: Violet and Deep Red
James Trevelyan: Warm, Rich Brown (and the classic 'Inquisition Green')
Aelon Mahariel: Gold and Light Green
Sabina Lancaster: Light Tan and Bright Red
Zephyr Skybreeze: Sky Blue and Warm Brown
Ruathym Dhalmass: Muted Green and Bio-luminescent Blue (is that a color? like the color of those plankton that glow in the dark blue in the sea)
Viola, the Dark Urge: Black and Silver
Vanessa Shepard: Black and Red (N7)
Marco Ryder: Lighter Black and Deeper Red
Ava Trevelyan: Ice Blue and Warm Gold
