Thinking about going back to sims and doing some dnd themed edits maybe? Not lore accurate, because I don't know the lore - but from overall view and vibe lmao. I just keep thinking about who Lucinda could be in like DnD or Bg3 universe. She would be a Sharran, due to being completely lost to her grief. Idk about this part but technically, she's a true vampire so it could be the only emotion left of her. She's desperate for the Dark Lady's embrace - with her identity completely shattered to pieces, echoing grief and thirst for sweet, sweet revenge Karina never.. had any chance of getting. Yes, I'm slowly getting back to my OCs :') VERY slowly though. This thought just won't leave me alone. Also, if I'm putting her in Bg3 situation (perhaps a quest?), maybe she could be just a very lost vampire, living in haunted ruins of a castle, plagued by darkness and embracing loss. She could be living in Shadowcursed lands, I think? And being one of those who remember Ketheric before he turned to Shar. Idk why I'm obsessed with the idea of putting OCs in these situations, I just want to??

10. Is it important to include tension or outright areas of conflict in a relationship? If so then how do you explore these? Or does this not appeal to you?
23. What is something you feel you have improved at in terms of portraying sexual or romantic relationships?
32. If you ship your OC with a particular canon character, then what was it about that character that drew you to them? Is it that you have a certain "type" when it comes to shipping? Or did you surprise yourself with who you felt drawn towards? If your OC is in a relationship with another OC then did you change any aspects of either of their backstories or personalities to make this work?
Thank you for the ask :D
10. (Answered here!)
23. Five years ago I was afraid to write smut at all! It felt very intimidating to break into, but ultimately was rewarding and now it's one of my favorite genres. Whether I'm good at it or not... idk xD I am trying to focus on having fun with it. It's been a great way to learn new things about characters, because sex and romance can bring out sides you might not otherwise see.
But in this time I've also found myself a wonderful partner irl. The curiosity that's inspired, the experiences we've shared, and the growth it's encouraged me to achieve has, I think, definitely given me a broader perspective which I like to think has helped with my writing, too - even if only in opening my eyes to new types of relationships and encounters to explore!
32. I could go on all DAY about this but the short answer is yes to all.
I'm often drawn to the tragic gentle hero hiding behind a smile who likes to banter type, so characters like X'rhun and Haurchefant are catnip to me. Aymeric has that dogged idealism and polite competence which is hard to resist (plus that voice. That voice.) And I really like the trope of hot-blooded women who will open up a more vulnerable side when they come to trust you, so that made Alisaie (and fo4's Piper) predictable, too. But others, like Thancred, caught me by surprise and I still thank @briar-ffxiv for opening up my eyes to his potential XD Astarion in BG3 was also a bit of a surprise!
Nate/Mal are arguably my main ship and when @seasaltandcopper and I first started RP'ing we didn't think they'd get along at all. They weren't designed to be shipped together, but they connected in some really surprising ways. We kept throwing them into other aus and putting them in new situations, sometimes deliberately trying to push them into being enemies... and they just. kept. choosing each other. Sometimes it felt like when we set them up the most to fail, they speedran into falling in love even faster lmfao Finally we had to accept they were soulmates xD
Whether I tailor a characters backstory for shipping or just make something to see where the chips land, or blend the two, just kinda varies. I like doing different things!
