Favorite Character: I have so many, I can't pick a favorite, but I guess currently its between my CS character IceBox and mt split fursonas Calico/Jester.
Story/or anything else you want to share with us: I have so many characters and I just can't get rid of any of them, even if i don't use them as much, they are still around in my head.
Have you read the rules? Yes I have.

I feel bad since I posted and then kinda never came back
First of all Thank you for all the Welcomes (two years ago... sorry!)

I still have IceBox and love him dearly, but Calico/Jester have been merged together. But currently my favorite and most favorite characters are my Activist Pride Litter.

I am so excited for this finishing art! The Amazing Artist Cerestes. She is making my Litter into Anthro Form. I’m sooo excited!
From Left to Right: Transgender Pride, GenderQueer Pride, Pansexual Pride, Safe Zone/Gay Pride, Bisexual Pride. (I unfortunately do not have names yet, but I am thinking them up!) (Update: I think I have names for all of them cept one so far…)

[geinkotsu]

Aha! Sorry I haven't been active past week or two, family drama and the like. But I loved seeing everyone's responses to the set of questions I posted up! It's great to see so many fellow fantasy lovers hanging around.

@WeegeeStar
Does My Messenger enjoy his job? I think it's family pride, for the greatest part of it. But seeing as it's all he's grown up to know, I think it's the only thing he thinks he likes to do. Also, he's just a glorified mailman while he recoveres/hides out. So right now, no he's literally just a bum running errands. xD

Also I love your birdies! I'd love to hear/see more about their species information and their social structure as a collective species~


@TenMomentsTill
Yeah, I'm going to make him prideful to a fault. Just a little too full of himself. His background is going to be a lineage of strictly bred messengers with a pretty messed up family social structure. Sort of a strongest survive scenario. Considering being well bred, his messages are generally between kingdom rulers and lords and ladies of the sort. Very sensitive information that most people would pay a pretty penny for.

Omg flirting to survive, that's perfect xD I've got a dark spot in my heart for horrible characters. What's he been getting revenge for?

Also hhhh I love all the bust drawings you do of your characters. The style is so nice and pretty consistant and yet you still manage somehow to make each character unique looking. Theron sounds like my type of shaddy guy too, love roleplaying them and just running them into the ground and makin em hit rock bottom. And I saw your little chibi drawing of your angel of death! I love his reddish ribcage markings its really nicely done~


@Syfy Hhhhh Banbh is soo taaalll my goodness. Gosh I'm sure he'd be a sight to see if you ever got your hands on a fullbody picture.


@NARANDA
Aahhh thankyou >u<'
Holy moly you've gotten a lot of artwork! You must have been making bank durring the event to buy out some stuff with tokens. I love your journey oc, btw. I've never seen a animal fan oc from journey before yours and it's so well done and beautiful hhh.

Are you a fan of species by the way? A lot of people really get into them, but I have a hard time personally relating with characters that are part of a species. Maybe because most of them are animals.


@Harkness
Thankyou! Personally I'm iffy about the sash but, too late now ;D

But gosh! You have such an amazing world that you are constructing so far. It's got a very rustic 80's western scifi feel to it. AndIjustlovethatstuff. I've never seen a choose your own adventure comic online before, how would you end up making it work? Put out a page and then take polls on what actions for the Deputy to take? Most voted becomes the next page?

I finished the painting of my harpy Messenger and decided to name him Ralu! I've put him in a tiny group over on dA and am hoping to roleplay with some people over there but I need to work on his personality a bit more I think. Haha ^^; So far he's turning out to be more of a scardy cat than I intended. I'm also drawing a doodle page for him interacting with some other's characters so maybe it'll help me pin him down a little.

Favorite Character: i can't pick just one aaa;;; uhh...
right now it might be distal and proxy?
[both by vvheatly@dA]
or admiral or rattler or demon... i have too many characters and i love them all help
(that's my character site, too, if you're keeping a list of them :0)

Story and/or anything else you want to share with us: demon and my sona (ray)'s relationship, maybe?
demon ( by me) is a succulent that emits a kind of... evil aura? little imps grow from the aura and they tend to hang around people, and whoever they decide to hang out around is filled with emotions like worthlessness, insecurity, loneliness, etc. the imps, the aura, and the word "insecurity" on the pot are all invisible to the naked eye.

ray is a caring kind of dude and he's especially latched onto this little plant he found dying in the back of a plant nursery. he nursed it back to health and cares for demon almost obsessively. because he spends so much time around the plant, he's constantly surrounded by dozens of little imps and they're ruining his mental health...

Have you read the rules? dern straight i did

[weegeestar5]

ahhhh such long responses

@tenmomentstill, yes they are !! generally roughly tho - like i based leven around a robin, and so based him also around snow/winter, and i based rhett on a crow [moreso loosely for him in terms of design], and also the theme of death ;v; im still trying to think about how they met. i was thinking that, since levens family has the general attitude of something along the lines of "the key to survival is keeping warm/surviving winter" so they might have sent him to get firewood and then rhett, who i imagine sometimes likes quiet walks, was merely walking around until he stumbled upon leven who was probably sitting in a huge pile of firewood. i still need to think about that tho
tbh when you have 350+ ocs you sometimes just end up looking at some of them and just go "nahh not paying attention to you for now"
ahhh another lovely sketch page by you ! disease looks super nice; i love the reference to the plague doctor masks by their mask[? unless thats their face, i cant really tell oops]. does disease ever feel sorry for causing disease, or not? the dinosaur looks super cute, and i love what you have described for them. joke ocs are always the best. theron looks super nice ! does he actually know anything about machines [e.g. how to build them] or does me merely scavenge their parts ?? ahh im terrible with names, but you could always try some baby naming sites o: her hair looks super pretty tho ! i think i remember seeing fate before o: are his pranks harmless or do they tend to actually harm others? anastazia has super pretty hair omg ;v; i really love her personality tbh. is there any reason as to why she prefers to act punk ? break looks super cool !! ahh the curse sounds horrible tho. did he himself actually do anything to make people angry enough to curse him ? did they curse the other members of his family, or just him ?? alani is super cute omg ;v; i really love the concept you have for angels in your universe ! [especially the part about taking forms of higher ranking angels] what did they do to get kicked out?
and the second sketch page is super cool ! the deer skull guy looks super cool ! do they ever miss being alive? nikolai looks super cute; does he ever get arrested/caught for being a necromancer ? the species looks really cool! how do people view them? and the other ghost is so cute omg ;v; ahhh i really love the concept of the book, and i really love how nosy she is omg ;v; azrael is so cute and i love his personality ;v; does he enjoy his job ? ahhh elwin is adorable and i love his personality ;v;
this was a longer response than intended so if you don't want to answer all of those questions its fine haha
@syfy, ohhh thats cool that hes a messenger !! does he get naturally braver over time, or does something happen to make him feel braver? and thank you !! :'D
@naranda, holidays are definitely good for spoiling ocs haha !! and thank you for the compliments ! ;v;
kaiya looks super adorable ! if you've developed her since you posted, then have you decided on how experienced she is with her powers ? o: ahhh all of the art is so cute !! why is celest crying in that picture, though ?
and all of the art in your second post is adorable too ! i especially love the headshot of vesper ! akihiko is so cute and i love his personality ;v; does he ever get into trouble for going places hes not meant too/being sneaky?? i love europa's colours and the thought behind her name o:
@luff, ahhh thank you so much ;v; !! i had fun designing them haha
@delirious, welcome to the club ! rowan looks adorable !! and tbh i agree completely with the whole feeling happy when others excitedly talk about their ocs !
@emo-stump, welcome to the club !! declan looks like a cutie ;v;
@the wolfe, redd and blue look super cute ! i love how their names match o:
@harkness, yes they're matesprits ! thank you very much ! as for how rhett and leven met, i just answered that in the very first response in this post ;v; how they became friends, however, i didnt explain so i'll explain it here. again im still not 100% certain but oh well. leven naturally wants to be friends with p much everyone he meets [unless theyre really not a good person] so he tried to be friendly with rhett. rhetts much more grumpy and antisocial and didnt take too kindly to this at first. but tbh then leven was just more determined to become his friend oops
ahhh holdens rewrite sounds super cool ! does he ever become loyal in his story ? [whether just a little bit or not haha] and that draft sounds super cool o:
the sheriff and deputy have super lovely designs ! i really love the concept you have for the planet - its relatable, but also unique !! [well, relatable in the sense that some areas do experience abandonment/lack of investment] how was the sheriff injured? was it fatal, or was it just severe but not necessarily life threatening ?? i think its really cool to refer to them by only their titles o: !!
@zaokyi, welcome to the club !! i really love how they begrudgingly become friends haha. their personalities also sound super nice !
@calicowolf, ice box is a cutie ! i also really love the activist litter ;v; calico also looks super nice; i love the card symbols on their tail ;v;
@geinkotsu, ahhh thank you ! their species info is pretty complex... and still not finished haha. however, i do have some info on their social structures - they live in "family" groups called flocks ! flocks can actually contain a mixture of friends, lovers and even outsiders who need somewhere to stay rather than purely "family" tho - it just depends on the flock! some are more accepting than others. birdies are generally p equal to one another, tho there are some high ranking ones to make sure things aren't complete chaos. as a result, some laws are held higher than others, as the higher ranking ones are often the ones making sure the more "important" ones are followed [for example, 'no stealing', although a law, isn't seen as super important and they'd rather it was sorted out between the flocks in question. but murder would definitely lead them to get involved]. there are also "royal" birdies - any birdie born with heterochromia is seen as royal and their flock also therefore is royal whilst they're alive. these are extremely rare, although there can be more than one at once [that just means they're both royal flocks]. i love birdies so much
ahhh that makes sense ! the finished picture of ralu looks super nice !! tbh i know how that feels. some of my ocs just develop in their own ways after rping them and such. i actually prefer those ones then as to how i had them before tho tbh o: and a doodle page sounds like a fun idea to get his personality down a bit more !
@trashguts, welcome to the club ! your ocs look super cool, and i really love the concept of demon and ray's relationship o: its super unique

------

anyway, ive been a busy weeg drawing a lot of oc art !
ive drawn my other two birdies recently too help i love them too much

first we have picar !

[by me]

tbh this picture truly captures his love for shiny things cx
he is looking at his talons [which are usually retracted and are black] which he has decided to paint due to the fact that well.... they look shiny cx [an idea one of my friends said once]
he is based off of a magpie ! as magpies are traditionally said to like to steal shiny things, well, picar likes to steal shiny things. the love for shiny things is actually genetic for some birdies [although others can still love shiny things] - its rumoured to be because of the fact that when their species was more primitive, they'd get shiny things in order to impress partners c: this is just something which has been passed down as a result, but has become less widespread as they've advanced. although, despite this, most others which like shiny things generally don't steal them - picar mainly steals them bc hes from a family of thieves so :p
picar is super lively and very excitable. he isn't particularly academically smart, but the birdie below, his older sister, is always ready to help him out. he can be a bit of a show off and likes to appear as if hes super tough despite being a huge crybaby. hes very over reactive and he tends to get upset easily. picar can be a bit demanding without meaning to be, though if pointed out he would probably be confused tbh. he can also be p flirty although wouldn't flirt w/ others if he was in a relationship
he also has had a p bad history w/ romance. aka most/all of those he dated in the past cheated on him. poor picar. despite his misfortune when it comes to romance, picar would still enjoy being in a romantic relationship ! in fact, hes currently shipped with one of my friends unnamed birdies ;v;

and then we have his older sister, capus !

[by me]

since she grew up with picar, she too grew up with a family group of birdies who like to steal things. however, unlike picar, shes more in it for the money then shiny things cx their family group is close-knit and loyal to one another, tho often wary of outsiders
shes based off of a swift, but since her design ended up being similar to picars i decided to make them siblings who steal things haha. shes p smart and good of thinking of plans. shes also p organised and organises plans p carefully [such as if they failed to do X, they could retreat to place Y]. she can be greedy, and is generally pretty selfish unless you're close to her. shes p level headed and generally remains calm in a lot of situations, although she does tend to get angry/annoyed quite a bit. she can be aggressive if messed with, but she generally doesn't randomly pick fights. shes super cautious and wary of others she doesn't know, which may have developed as a result of picar's partners cheating on him tbh [despite not even being particularly interested in romance herself]. shes super loyal if you're close to her ! she can be p sassy too oops
her and picar are siblings, as previously mentioned. she mainly watches out for her little brother and makes sure that hes safe ! she also tries to provide comfort when hes upset, too ;v; picar is someone that capus can talk too when shes upset, and he also definitely makes her laugh. the two often prefer to steal things when its just the two of them rather than with other family members as theyre p close ;v;

[zaokyi]

@weegeestar: Thanks so much! I'm a sucker for begrudging friendships haha :> It's nice to meet you! I love both of the characters you just posted, it's super cool that they're based off of magpies, I feel like I don't see a lot of bird characters so that's really unique. They seem really interesting & you should definitely keep telling us more about their story!

@trashguts: Your characters are so interesting too!! I love plants & succulents and it's so cool to see characters based on them aaaaa :>

[TenMomentsTill]

emo-stump ~ Hahaha, streetlights are really comforting to be under in the dark, at least to me. He's actually based off a sorta nightmare I had about a year back.

calicowolf ~ Welcome back after two years~ I love the litter's anthro forms so far. It's going to turn into some very lovely art.

geinkotsu ~ From what you posted on dA, does Ralu ever settle down in the town he's stuck in? Also, why was he shot with an arrow? Did the person who did that, if they were after what Ralu was carrying, retrieve the message?

Marrow is involved in a blood feud, so the revenge is based around getting even with the other family.
Oh man, I usually think my style is super inconsistent. It's nice to hear that it looks like it actually belongs together. THeron's story arch actually has him hit the very bottom, haha. I really do love 'ruining' them that way. Azrael's markings are actually where his skin is less transparent. If you put your hand behind him, you would be able to see it pretty well.


weegeestar ~ Sitting in a pile of firewood is precious~ Though, probably super uncomfortable. Firewood isn't all the fun to be handling (at least the kind I deal with). Yeah, the more OCs you have, the more of them you are going to wind up ignoring. Magpies do love stealing shiny things and being semi-jerks (at least the ones where I live do). So with birdies, any birdie and have any bird-based baby? Picar with shiny nails is super cute ;w; It sounds like he relies a lot on his sister to take care of him? Does Capus mind taking care of him?

Disease's mask(it sorta is their face) is a reference to plague doctors. They don't feel bad about spreading disease. Deities don't feel emotions since they are literally just around to keep the universe going. THeron has enough of an idea about the machines to take one apart. He can build/fix motorcycles though. Fate's pranks are mostly harmless, they do get really annoying since he pulls the same one over and over again if he decides to prank you (one person he throws water balloons at them if they go out on the porch, another he hides guavas in their house).Anastazia acts like a punk since she feels like people will take her more seriously that way and she also likes the clothing style that comes with. Break didn't do anything. His family a few generations back did something to piss off someone magical. What I have decided so far is that the curse doesn't inflict everyone in the family, whoever gets it is just the unlucky one.
Okay, to explain why Alani got kicked out, I have to give a bit more info about the world. So, my OCs' universe is split into halves. Each half has a separate Heaven/Hell set-up and is ruled by a different main god. The half which Alania is from (that half's heaven is named Heaven) the main god ditched them. So, Heaven is then ruled by Raphael since he's the oldest angel and the only one claim that he was an original. In order to get in that position Raphael has been killing/kicking out angels that he thinks are going to threaten his position. Alania figures out what he's been doing and confronts him about it. So, he quickly traps them in the Underworld in a frozen lake (pretty much, getting rid of all the evidence that way). By the time they manage to free themselves , the universe is on an unstoppable decline, so Alani decides to just enjoy the amount of time the universe has left and not pursue any form of revenge on Raphael.
The deer guy usually doesn't miss being alive. Nikolai was turned in for being a necromancer when he was a kid, but managed to get out of it because of a very hateful poltergeist. Azrael loves his job since he gets to travel around the universe.

zaokyi ~ Please make sure to reply to at least 10 posts back (or less since you posted more recently than 10 posts).
..................................

Okay, I finally made it to the of the last sketches.



The two kissing are named Ferris (owned by abissh on da) and Fate. Pretty much, they hang out together since they both want someone to spend time with.

The person in green is my god of chaos, Setshi. They are an overworked (since the universe is trying to destroy itself) and tired person who is honestly very done with everyone's crap. Being a god of chaos, they have to make sure enough bad things are happening to keep things in order and have to try to minimize preventable damage (like other gods purposefully destroying things).

The snake is just a species I have. I wanted a planet of giant sentient snakes so I made one. It's ridiculous and will, at most, be a brief mention.

Joon is a necromancer who had to quit his job as an architect and join up with a diplomacy-ish group called 'The International Necromancer Society'. He isn't the strongest necromancer, but comes up with really intricate ways for a lower-power necromancer to pull off high-skill tasks. Joon managed to do a few things that were then outlawed and he was pressured into joining The Necromancer Society.
He also has my favourite familiar out of any of my magic people, a giant unnamed moth.

@The Wolfe - Thank you for the compliment!
Nice new donkey chars you have there! I think you got the two coolest from that batch XP

@Harkness. - Ya, Kaiya has an art piece by you, it's one of my more fave ones XD | And thank you! I enjoy spoiling my babies with art, lots of it XP
Wow! the idea of the interactive comic is amazing! The designs for the two chars are really cool, and the whole story idea sounds very well thought out! I wish you luck working on that project!

@zaokyi - Welcome to the club!

@TenMomentsTill - Thank you! I am so very glad Kaiya is mine! I never really watched the show much, but I did love the few episodes I saw! | And thank you! I wanted to keep Reika's outfit simple, but nice XD | She is one of my only mammal/fish combo chars, so I can't say yes, I see too many I don't like, but there are some I do like such as Lush and Malaika.
So many sketches to comment on! I'll just pick a few, though all look amazing and all the info is amazing (I'm having fun reading about your worlds XD) | Your unnamed cat species sounds very interesting and scary, a very neat idea. | I must say I feel bad for your poor doctor who has to hide his powers. At least he hasn't been caught yet. You did a good job on the tears!
I love the idea of your planet of giant sentient snakes XD Just a random snake planet, very amusing XP | And Joon's companion, looks cute from the picture! Does Joon ever find holes in is clothes? XP

@CalicoWolf - Welcome back to the club! | IceBox is a really cool character | That art by Cerestes is really amazing!

@Geinkotsu - Haha! I was really collected the tokens, all my tokens went towards art as I don't normally like the easter pets, so instead I just spoil my babies! | And thank you! Hnai did amazing with their design and I loved them at first sight! I am so glad they are now mine! | And I like some species, I normally connect better with smaller species, mostly because I feel unwelcome with the bigger species that always have problems with those who don't win their desired chars. It depends on the species, but I am feeling pretty connected to Akihiko already! But that species literally has only like 5ish adopted out right now, they are small and just getting started XD
Ah! Ralu looks amazing! What kind of RP are you putting him into out of curiosity, or what kind of world will he be living in?

@trashguts - Welcome to the club! | OMG! Demon is so cool! Such an interesting and unique little character!

@weegeestar5 - No, I haven't had time to develop Kaiya since my last post. | I just wanted sort of happy tears sort of picture since poor Celest kept getting bounced around from owner to owner who said "We'll love her!" and then just abandon her. She has had so many owners with no development or art... | Akihiko, yes, her gets into plenty of trouble! Sometimes he gets punished, and sometimes he puts himself in troubles way and ends up just punishing himself with his curiosity XP
Both those chars look and sound cool! And you did a good job on both art pieces! I am curious, does Picar get in trouble a lot for stealing?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have a problem... I just bought two more characters... I can't help myself...
Anyways, meet Hotaru, a dream char I missed out on a while back!
Now she is mine! All mine!!!! <333 Design and art by Hnai

Personality:
Hotaru is passionate and determined, always working hard towards her goal and not letting anyone put her down or tell her she can't do something. She was forced to become a seamstress by her parents, but she does not mind the job, she enjoys having the skill of making clothing for herself. Becoming a samurai she was looked down upon and put down, so she has come to ignore the comments made against her and to ignore those who keep trying to stop her. She cares about the innocent and will put herself in harms way to protect them. She loves tea and sushi, and normally makes the sushi herself, making all kinds of it. She has a large collection of tea, and she loves having different kinds each day to keep it interesting.

And I also got her mate, Sakuran, art and design by Boybites on DA
I have not decided on his personality yet, but he is staying Hotaru's mate


Some more art of some of my chars as well!
- Akai Ryuuko by Grifforik (So excited about this piece, been waiting over a year!)
- Reika by Snil
- Likoza by siegfried.

Edit* Some more art!!!! -Sings-

Favorite Character: For the moment

Story and/or anything else you want to share with us: I love creatures c: My Aliensona is a good example. She is my icon. I love things that are more on the fantasy scify side of characters.
Have you read the rules? Yes

[>> Leafstorm515]

@ Harkness: I really like the premise of those characters. The art is beautiful as well. I think the idea could really be an interesting and well developed plot. Good luck figuring all the details out!
@TenMomentsTil: Your art is beautiful. I really love the style, the variety in the traits and style all together make it enjoyable to look at. The descriptions are wonderful as well
@ Geinkotsu: Wow your art is phenomenal. @o@ Stunning attention to detail as well as organized reference. His eyes are by far my favorite trait, they really seem to make him unique and set apart.
@Trashguts: omg I love the eyeball character. *I admire people with cool characters like that, I don't ever seem to have any unique details other than 'their weird' lol Good luck with them!
@weegeestar HAVE I SAID I LOVE YOU AND YOUR PRESH ART. You have the most unique and beautiful characters ever I'm so jealous of you but so proud at the same timmmmeee I love those siblings eyeeeesss
@TenMomentsTil: The snake is perfection. Such cute couple art too haha!!
@NARADA: Hnai is so incredible, who could resist one of their designs/art? Congrats on snagging both of those guys, I'd love to hear more about their relationships, like what thier favorite activity and likes are.

I'm having a horrible day. I lost a full litter of five foster kittens today. I know it wasn't my fault, the mom was too young and far too small to have that many kittens. But I'm distraught. And I posted about it on another thread looking to buy characters for some cheering up and it got skipped. Like, okay. I'm not talking bad about anyone I'm just hurt. So I'm wondering if anyone here has any natural cat/warrior cat characters that they would like to sell/trade? I'd love if you could pm me about it, or even just pm and yeah?

Oooo I also have a question

Code: Select all

Do you own any characters designed by me, Leafstorm515?

[Relamune]
