okay okay okay warning this is really long
and side note: probs gunna try and change the flowers to ones that bloom at night, bcuz rachel likes the stars and moths & foxes are nocturnal and so therefore i am basing everything around the night
so ive been experimenting with giving the animal demon things familiars and also NOT making them giant (well maybe sometimes. as a treat. and also bcuz i want some of them to get mad enough and just fuckin. eat ppl.)
which means their "fully animal" forms need to be a little more complicated than i originally designed. just to distinguish between the normalish animals and the Very Much Not Normal Animals. yknow aside from me messing with their colours as much as i did bcuz that aint very swift fox lookin huh?
rachels animals are a Swift Fox and a Bella Moth and her colours are that coralish-salmonish-pinkish-orange and white, and then she gets plants and fire bcuz i got really attached to a specific scene in my paracosm where this 10 yr old and her adult who also has fire just fucking destroy some ppl that hurt both of them bcuz the solution to anger and trauma is to fucking murder them tag team style and its really pretty bcuz of all the different colours and rachels plants start wrapping around them but thats not important right now
anyway familiars: rachel likes stars so her fox is named Meteor and her moth is named Constellation, which i was like "ha ha cute" at first then remembered what Bella Moths look like with their spots and that Swift Foxes are, go figure, swift and also that they're both nocturnal so rachels interest in astronomy is really cute. idk things just kinda work out for me im so perfect that everything lines up accidentally with no forethought
anyway Meteor and Constellation look Kinda Normal But Just Off, kinda like how Alecto's (whos getting a new name) wolf would be unnaturally black despite already being a Mackenzie Valley Wolf who can have dark coats. just smudge the colours to be more saturated and make them more docile around other familiars so youre like "that fox is just. letting that moth sit on its head." theyre also significantly bigger bcuz i refuse to let Constellation be 4cm. shes the size of at least my hand maybe my face. i havent decided if Meteor would be bigger bcuz despite Constellation being a moth already im keeping Meteor a kit bcuz thats adorable. shes a babby and Rachel handles her like a really fragile stuffed animal.
anyways i mentioned the wolf imma talk about the wolf bcuz i love him. his name is Key, like CMYK haha, but then theres also the spider and his name is Lock bcuz he showed up a few years after Key. yes Alecto jokes about things being "under Lock and Key" when she leaves them in charge of things. they dont hang out bcuz Lock prefers the ceiling, which is a habit that Alecto gets bcuz i enjoy animal-ish characters having moments when they are pure instinct. Key is extremely protective over Meteor and carries her around by her scruff like hes her mother. i also havent decided if Key is gunna be bigger bcuz wolves are already fucking huge so the shock of other being like "woah. big." can also be bcuz. wolf. Lock is bigger tho bcuz Australian Funnel Web Spiders are also fucking tiny and he also needs to be bigger than 4cm. i wont say how big bcuz im already icked and i dont wanna ick anyone else but hes bigger than hes sposed to be.
the familiars are really cool, like i think most familiars in stuff im making it so that if the person is injured the familiar is injured. this is bcuz i made Alecto own a large plot of land with lots of different ppl hiding and normal ppl show up and are like "wtf happened to these animals they look like they Been Thru It". i just like making things connected magically. its fun. however with rachels fire powers that also means that Meteor gets the stereotypical fox-with-fire-powers-gets-fire-tail troupe which is kick ass normally but rachels fire is white so it looks neat!
ALSO i have given then multiple forms, bcuz i want rachel to have fun cute moments where she goes "look what i can do!" and then she has fox ears and moth antennae and everyone talks about how cute she is bcuz rachel deserves nice things like loving friends and family and also caramel
rachel is extremely emotional as most children are and has Literally No Filter bcuz i love children with no filter they're so funny. shes kinda short in her human form and in her fox-ish form shes like a lil small and focken fast. i like a moment where she runs away scared and someone catches her and shes asking if everythings fine and everyones okay with completely normal freaked out breathing and doods completely out of breath like "uh yeah weve been trying to catch you for like 10min jesus christ kid".
she likes tall ppl bcuz they remind her of her mom, but her mom wasnt actually all that tall rachel is just a small child so 5'7" looks pretty similar to 6'0" when theres no comparison. her mom made caramel out of canned condensed milk (that's based on my mom, i dont like caramel tho) and its rachels favourite thing. yknow aside from her magical animals bcuz what kid wouldn't like magical animals. she also likes rain and dresses (imma put a dress WIP at the end, but its adult size rn bcuz i used my regular base) and having her hair braided. bcuz child.
apparently i just really like smart characters bcuz im making rachel smart but also she likes stars and plants and i hate astrology so the only options are science and art and im going with science. shes a science baby. ask her about the stars and she can give you astronomy facts but shes also learning about the myth side of constellations bcuz thats the more interesting side of astrology.
anyways i think i could ramble for forever bcuz i like children so child characters are my jam, and i will forever gush about them, but i keep getting distracted by archeology videos so it's time to stop heres the fancy dress im work shopping for rachel, again its the wrong size
