TMA Oc character notes-- Perseus Desdemona Gregoria

Yeah I made a TMA Oc so sue me

How well do they remember their childhood?

They remember small bits and pieces of it. Their father passed out drunk at the kitchen table. His refusal to acknowledge them. He barely looked at them, but when he did there was this profound sadness and hatred in his eyes. The sadness was because they looked like their mother, the hatred was because they killed their mother. He hated them simply for being born.

They remember having an undying thirst for knowledge. They would try to learn anything about everything.

They remember spending nights outside staring at the stars. They remember taking many hobbies, piano, violin, Cello, painting. Just so their dad would be proud of them. It never worked.

They remember realising they were non-binary. They cried so hard, for so long. It was a terrible realisation. 

They remember choosing their name, “Persus”; it sounded right. It fits them. “Percy” was the name they would’ve been given had they been born a boy. 

They remember being alone during primary and middle school. They didn’t have any friends. They would read, alone, in some isolated corner. Their peers didn’t like them. Was it because they were autistic? Because of their ADD? Their OCD? They weren’t even diagnosed back then. Could they see into their head and see their disturbing intrusive thoughts? The ones about hurting people, hurting themself? Or are they just meant to be alone?

What is in their fridge?

Energy drinks, ice cream, easy-to-make foods. Leftovers from when Juliet saw how desolate and barren their fridge was and started sending them home with home cooked meals.

Do they use any nicknames?

When they were still Desdemona they would often go by ‘Mona’, or ‘Dez’ with friends and teachers. Most people now just call them ‘Percy’, Tim calls them ‘Perc’ or ‘Purse’ because he thinks it's funny. Percy doesn’t mind, though.

What’s the first thing someone would see when looking at them?

Their eccentric taste in clothing. It's all either self-made or thrifted. Or they ‘borrowed’ it from one of their friends.

How do they respond to touch? 

If its unexpected they'll flinch. If its an unexpected hug their heart will begin to race.

How do they smell?

Cigarettes and wet pavement. No particular reason I just feel like it fits their vibe.

Clean or messy?

Messy. Percy enjoys chaos. They prefer it, actually. Everything has a place in the chaos of their home and office. They can find everything and anything in there. Well, except for their glasses.

Tea or coffee?

Tea. They don’t like the bitterness of coffee. 

Fears?

Their greatest fear is to be known. Inside and out. They’re an observer. They are supposed to know not to be known.  (Average Eye avatar experience.)

Allergies?

None

Early bird or night owl?

Night Owl. They love staying out at night. They love looking at the stars. Unfortunately due to their job and London's light-pollution they rarely see them. 

Extrovert or introvert?

Introvert.

Relationship status?

Single 

Left handed or right handed?

Ambidextrous 

Superstitious?

Sort of? Their grandmother on their mum's side would often visit from Greece when they were a child. She gifted them a Mati (Evil Eye) necklace which they still wear to this day, more out of sentiment than belief but still, it comforts them. But that doesn’t mean they don’t have superstitions. They’ve never given someone a knife, especially their friends, they’ve never given someone perfume, they try to always have a piece of red on their outfit, and they spit to avoid bad luck (but also because of their smoking habit). 

Ticklish?

Yes, they hate it.

Can they cook/bake?

They can cook basic meals and can make bread from scratch but that's about it.

Weird talents? 

They’re ambidextrous, would that be considered a weird talent?

Actuel talents?

They play the violin and piano and they dabble in painting every once in a while. 

Learning disabilities?

Autism, OCD, ADHD, Pseudobulber affect

Physical disabilities?

Almost blind without their glasses. Which is unfortunate considering they are prone to losing them.

Collections 

They like collecting buttons, cool or pretty ones. They have jars of them. They also own twelve furbies that they bought off a guy from Facebook market place.

Pet Peeves?

When people touch or move their stuff. 

Luxury bath or quick shower?

Luxury bath. They need to relax.

Earbuds or headphones?

Headphones, preferably noise-cancelling ones.

Personality type? 

INTP

Star sign?

Gemini 

Year of the dog

Greatest strengths?

Wit and persuasion. And pure dumb luck.

Greatest weaknesses?Their stubborness and spite.

Pets

An albino rat named Phyllis. She's bigger than normal rats but the vets have assured Percy that it's nothing to worry about.

Favourite curse word

Shit

Favourite season

Autumn. Not too hot. Not too cold. Perfect for layering. 

Call or text?

Text

Favourite colour

They like all colours but are privy to burgundy, maroon and orange

Background/culture?

Their mum was Greek and their father was English. They grew up in England 

Who would they really like to hug?

Their mum

Who would they really like to punch?

Their dad, Elias Bouchard, their ex husband

Story behind their first kiss…

They were 16. Percy had just snuck out of their fathers house and was walking in the park at night with their best friend, Jasper. The pair sat on a bench and looked up at the stars, admiring them. When Percy turned to look at Jasper he was already looking at them, a soft smile on his lips. He leant forward and placed a gentle kiss on their lips. For that single moment, everything was okay.

Their last kiss…

It was the morning before Jasper was arrested. He had kissed them goodbye at the door. That afternoon Percy got a call from the local police that Jasper had been arrested on suspicion for multiple murders across London. They served him with divorce papers a week later. 

Age/birthday

33 as of the tma timeline (2015) 

June 8th 1985

Their scars/birthmarks/ect…

Faded self-harm scars on their thighs

The piece of clothing/jewellery they always wear…

Hi guys look at my Magnus archives sona/avatar, The unknown

He has no name but people refer to it as Effigy

(More of his, the rumors of his existence, as “Effigy.” )

If you try to remember its face, you simply can’t

His face constantly shifts and changes and you can’t pinpoint the differences or his past face

He also causes hallucinations

And his stomach leads to a pocket dimension that causes you to dread something that doesn’t exist

He mainly takes form of a land creature but sometimes an airborn or an oceanic creature (Which I am yet to draw)

His body adapts to his environment as a creature that is hard to explain

Anyways, that’s all for now

By the way he’s really silly and thinks he’s beautiful (he’s insecure and has identity issues)

everyone say hi to my dirt wife. Her name is Claire. She’s an avatar of the buried and I love her

lore rambles under the cut

Claire is a paleontologist. In 2015, she and her team were caught in a collapsing quarry in rural Wyoming attempting to excavate fossils. She was the only member of the 25 person crew to survive the incident, however, it resulted in her trading her human life for one that served the buried. Since then, she and her roommate (and later partner) June, an eye avatar, have moved to London, where she works as a paleontology researcher at a university. Which one? I don’t know ! I haven’t done enough research about british universities. She can work at whichever one your heart desires.

She tries very hard to be human. She’s caught in a cycle where she starves herself of fear for a few months, then inevitably ends up burying people out on fossil digs every now and then. June is also a little freak like that though and still loves her so it’s ok. There’s a lot more nuance and self-insert canon cast nonsense that happens later but that’s the general gist of it. I <3 My grubby mud freak

Sketchbook inked and pencil drawing of my Slaughter avatar. Was one thing at first, then became loosely inspired by Satan Summoning his Legions.

🥩THE FLESH🥩

If you wanna hear yapping about the very obvious design choices

⬇️ I

⬇️ V

Okay we all know that the flesh is one of the more animalistic fears of being viewed only as meat, being eaten and living only to be killed. Since animals possess this fear it’s a pig. thats self explanatory

The Butchering themes are also self explanatory. I don’t think I have to go deeper into that

Now the colors or the outfit may need explanation because I can’t draw the texture / I don’t think you would recognize that the Blue overall suit thingy is supposed to be one of those hygiene suits you’d have to wear over your clothes in. Factory. I was more aiming for industri butchers instead of your local butcher shop whose owner chats with you over the counter. I wish I could draw plastic/ rubbery texture cause again the yellow color is inspired by modern industrial Butchery dress code

People who aligned with the Spiral are doomed by the narrative
