#riahna the raven

So, I have an art challenge for y'all.

You all know our lovely cast for "Autumn in Love"! (don't worry about Dr Damus, he's doing his own thing. And Sinthia doesn't normally show her real legs, I just wanted to practice them.) but I'm thinking something..

How would y'all like to make your own ocs/protagonists for this? Who would be the one to win the hearts of the Halloween/Autumn loves?

Here are the rules:

Your of would have to be in one way or another halloween/fall themed. Want to be a werewolf pumpkin? Sure! Zombie unicron? Sure! Angel scorpion? A vampire? Elf? Moth man? Alien?Yeah! The possibilities are pretty much endless! You can be pretty much anything for Halloween ;)

This is not a contest, this is just for fun. So don't worry about being "good" just go ham on it! I've seen you guys send me random OCS and whatnot and a lot of you are really creative. I want to see what you do with this, if you do

You can draw ship art with one or more of these characters and your oc. Again, dating Sim, so if anything, I'll encourage it (just don't send me porn, deal?)

Any gender! Any sexuality!

To "submit" an oc, you can reblog this post and add your oc, send one to my ask box, or @ me in a post. Those are the ways I'll most likely see it.

That's really it, if anyone has any questions, ask away!

Autumn In Love

With a new character! Riahna the Raven

(I messed up her prosthetic legs T^T the sketch looked way better, how'd this happen aaaa)

Riahna Lore Post!

Below the cut

Riahna’s pronouns are she/they (demigirl), and they’re a demiromantic bisexual

Riahna’s favorite color is green.

Their mask is actually fused to her skin. She can’t take it off, at least, not without pulling off her face as well. It gives them the ability to transform into an actual raven as well as their other bird attributes, like how her arms are similar to bird legs, their feathery tail, etc. (a blessing and a curse)

Riahna actually grows feathers all over her body, but they have grown to dislike her bird features/powers, and so they’ll pull the feathers out whenever they appear. 

She owns a bar called “Nevermore” (as you saw in the redesign post for them)

Their voice is kinda low and scratchy thanks to the constant alcohol she’s drinking (“whiskey voice”)

They can only fly in bird form.

Like the sign at her bar says, their main coping mechanism is to “drink their problems away”. As you can imagine, it’s not healthy.

Riahna may not like to admit it, but they’re lonely. They want someone to love her, but they’re afraid as well. She does better with people who start as friends and then go into romantic territory, they won’t just jump into a romantic relationship right away.

They are one of Dr. Damus’ patients, he helped her with their prosthetic legs. He tried to help with the mask too, but nothing could be done about that, it’s basically her skin.

Thanks to the beak on the mask, any shirts that aren’t button-ups or something similar are difficult to put on.

They like dancing 

If I end up making this dating sim, a mechanic that will appear will be a gift mechanic. As the name implies, you could give presents to the characters, but the thing is, certain gifts will work better with certain characters. For example: a farmer’s hat would be a good gift for Samwell, but Riahna would not like it at all.

 It would also be possible to mention other characters you've met and ask about those characters. If you were to ask Sinthia if she knew Riahna, she’d say no. Riahna knows Dr. Damus and Samwell, but not Sinthia. Be careful, certain characters have beef with each other, and that could cause some tension. You can (accidentally or not) bring up a touchy subject

Riahna does NOT like Samwell. At all. Why is that? Well, to summarize: Samwell is the reason Riahna lost their legs. Being disabled is of course not the worst thing in the world, and Riahna is living fine with prosthetic legs, a traumatic injury is still a traumatic injury. The thing is, Samwell doesn’t even know that he’s met Riahna before. He was doing what a scarecrow does, guarding his farm, when he saw a bird eating at the crops. So, he fired at it, not knowing that it was a person in bird form. He still doesn’t know that he shot Riahna. If he did, he would feel guilty about it.

Riahna just wants to forget it happened, But she can’t. No matter how much she drinks the pain away it always comes back later. They don’t want to confront it, or him. 

Samwell's lore post is next!

Riahna's Redesign!

No joke, I am really proud of how this turned out!

New:

Old:

She's the next one who will have a lore post. Ever since I redesigned her I've been way more interested in her character. Thier bartending outfit may change, especially if Sinthia ever sees them (she'll think this outfit is too plain, but Riahna doesn't care, lol)

[sir-subpar]

I'm not surprised that Sinthia is in the lead. Since day one y'all have loved her,

so it makes sense.

I'll make tomorrow (Augest 3rd) the last day of the poll. So if you want to vote, tomorrow is your last day!

( I'm also stuck making the decision between revealing Riahna's design now since it's done, or wait until her lore post)

[sir-subpar]

Our Lovely Raven Riahna's redesign is coming soon, here's a teaser. If all goes well, I think ya'll will like her ;)

[sir-subpar]

Ok, now that Scorch, Frostbyte, And Dr Damus are done, now on to the next lore post(s)!

I made another poll, because Sinthia, Samwell, and Rianhna were tied lol

Here's the new poll:

Who should be next?

Samwell

Sinthia

Riahna
