@Starfast group

This thread is exactly what it says on the tin. I really like to talk about small, random details about my characters that aren't really that important and it's kinda fun to learn about some of your guys' characters too. So yeah, just go wild and share some fun facts about your OCs.
I'll come back and share some facts about my own characters soon

@primaldesire

Alex drinks Pepsi and Coke, and he gets so much shade for it, especially from his cousin DJ for some weird reason.

@Dragoncita group

I have a behemoth with an extremely short attention span
He is honestly the one who will fall for the 'oh look a chicken', and actually go look for said 'chicken'

@primaldesire

Savannah swears a lot in her mind despite not saying many swear words out loud according to a mind reader. Savannah was mildly embarrassed when one decided to share this fact with her friends since she is seen as the "pure" one.

@HighPockets group

  • Stephen is allergic to seafood
  • Lucas plays the violin, and very well
  • Nich is left-handed
  • Ilona plays the viola, although they're not very good at it
  • Leah is an amateur tightrope walker
  • Amira's drink of choice is champagne

@primaldesire

  • Phoenix is left-handed and so is Isaac.
  • DJ didn't go to college
  • Alex can play a couple of instruments but he's rusty
  • Glitch can play the piano EXTREMELY well and she loves it
  • Phoenix is better with glimour spells since she uses them a lot and doesn't wear herself out with them, unlike her brother Alex who constantly uses his.
  • Alex can't swim but doesn't mind being in the water.
  • Zach is a big softie for dragons and wants to own but doesn't have space
  • Jay knows how to dance and can do many different styles of dance
  • Fang and Viper were bartenders at one point in their life
  • Klaus' german slips through when he gets angry and he sort of temporarily forgets how to speak English.
  • Meko wanted to be a singer(and still kind of does)

@HighPockets group

  • Huxley is extremely adverse to the feeling of rope
  • Jackson somehow balances being in a Shakespeare troupe and being a private detective and a walking disaster
  • Jackson has also said "What are you going to do? Stab me?" and got stabbed
  • Henry is a baseball player, I imagine he plays for a Northwoods team
  • Victor is fluent in French, English, and about half fluent in German
  • Martha is fluent in French and English
  • Victor's parents really wanted him to marry Alice Lowe, which was unfortunate for them because neither Alice nor Victor wanted that to happen
  • Victor has a younger sister named Claire whom he accidentally injures in a lab accident

@Starfast group

  • Ara knows how to solve a rubik's cube.
  • Andor has a tongue piercing. The only reason he has a tongue piercing is because he got kind of drunk one night and made a bet with his friends (None of them thought he would do it. He hates needles).
  • Gerard is named after Gerard Way
  • Despite saying that he is completely and 100% fearless, Crispin is actually really claustrophobic
  • Milo is one of my oldest characters. I made him either in 2007 or 2008. Maybe even earlier
  • Ara's birthday falls on national coffee day, which is very fitting for him.
  • Andor has his own set of OCs. I haven't really fleshed them out a lot because they're not hugely important to the story so it's not really a priority for me. His oldest one though is a self insert superhero named Captain Max that he made when he was 10, and he's exactly the kind of OC you would expect a 10 year old to make.
  • Gerard originally had the ability or manipulate other people's emotions.
  • Andor, Crispin, Gerard, and Jaire are all left handed

@HighPockets group

  • Ansel has a slight obsession with chocolate
  • Samuel has a really bad fear of heights (and falling from them)
  • Jackson has really really bad pseudosymns. One time someone asked him his name and he panicked and said 'Art Vandelay'. The man was not amused.
  • Nich's singing voice is actually pretty okay? Like, it's nothing special bit it's okay. He'd never let anyone here him though.
  • Meg is an alto
  • A lot of my characters have a specific color associated with them (Meg/red, Nich/green, Nell/pink, Jon/blue and grey, Oliver/blue and grey, Therese/purple)
  • Talia is really wiry and short, so she wears jackets with shoulder pads to seem bigger and more threatening
  • She also has spiked fingerless gloves which she uses to cut people with in hand-to-hand combat and to smash bones
  • Izzy is pretty good at acrobatics
  • Izzy also wears a blue wig sometimes, for no reason other than that she likes it and it gets people's attention

@Mojack group

Sinistra’s real name isn’t Sinistra. It still remembers what its true name is, but prefers not to reveal it.

While I typically write and play Sinistra as a female, Sinistra was ‘born/created/happened to exist’ with no concept of gender whatsoever. It eventually chose to mainly take on the form of a female when it discovered that concept only a few thousand years ago.
Sinistra is also left handed.

Versin started out as a separate character whom I liked the design of but I just split them into two characters as I changed Versin’s design.

Versin is the same species as that other character but in a different class, explaining their differing appearance.

Sinistra is fluent in nearly every language on Earth and several other unknown alien languages.

Fedir used to be one of my more intelligent characters. He isn’t anymore.

Fedir, despite his lack of intelligence is extremely strong physically. Even if he isn’t meaning to harm a single punch can break bones. He isn’t aware of that, either.

Fedir’s favourite type of food depends on his personality at that time.

Fedir switches between multiple personalities. He seems to not be aware of this.

The Red Mountain is listed as one of my characters. But no one’s sure if it truly exists or not.

In its files, Omega 000 is shown to be an extremely aggressive, threatening creature, but 000 is actually rather playful. It just doesn’t understand that humans are fragile, which also led to its termination.

000, while classified as terminated, is still alive, somehow.

000 is ambidextrous.

Omega 001 despises being called Princess, but it isn’t a “big enough offense” against her to get her to attack, so she typically ignores it.

003 is able to learn from being on the internet, if given the chance. This can lead to interesting notes, regarding its vocabulary.

003 is actually one of the deadliest Omegas of the project, due to its ability to consume any form of mass and grow in size, or split off. And change into different forms.

@m1dn1g7t_ri0ts_13

  • Katara traveled over a hundred miles in a vision in under 10 hours Earth time.
  • Daylee killed Katara because he loved her.
  • Arilyn is the spirit for OCD, which is very fitting because her name means and eye for perfection and detail.
  • Anxiety is Lorelai because it is a siren that lures sailors to their death, like a false call.
  • Daylee is depression because it means emotion, which can also sometimes be the opposite.
  • The only spirit that has a complete physical form is Eve.
  • Katara is lactose intolerant.

@Darkblossom group

Empress Enderstorm often wants to get drunk to temporarily wash away her depression, but isn’t normally allowed to because she needs to rule over the Three Dimensions.

@Your_Local_Scrivener

  • Coallen isn't naturally left handed; he broke his right shoulder and was forced by necessity to learn how to write with his left hand. This makes him ambidextrous. Usually he writes with his left hand out of sheer habit, but if he's really involved with something, he'll use his right hand.

  • Charlie secretly loves lions. It might have something to do with his middle name.

  • Adeben is actually really organized by nature, and it shows in his bedroom. (Unfortunately it doesn't show in his life.)

  • Lacey isn't usually a dress kind of person, but she'll never say no to a cocktail dress.

@ElderGod-kirky group

  • Aurae is farsighted–she is completely blind up close if she doesn't have her glasses/contacts
  • Fenris–the super deadly assassin–is nicknamed 'Squishy' by his friends
  • Tamaki uses his snow/ice abilities to make ice cream, snow cones, and milkshakes for his friends
  • Tessa (Theresa) has ties to the New York Mafia and proud of it
  • Rae likes sleeping in a blanket nest
  • Wulfric is super gay
  • Carden is nicknamed 'Flashlight' because of his bioluminescence
  • Rhydar is a hardcore thief and hates his role as a prince
  • Magnus babysits Rhydar
  • Koralia is the oldest but rarely acts like it
  • Nieven is the only pure elf among his siblings
  • Rohon was possessed by a demon (daemon as they call it)
  • Kiriti is the group favorite because she's adorable and innocent
  • Andromeda is mute because she drank poison to commit suicide (she failed)
  • Luca is considered a prince in his community because of his gigantic wings, but likes to fly (which is a no-no)
  • Junia is a tiny Giant jeweler (she's 5 foot 2, and her father is a god of the Giant race…)
  • Jamir is supposed to hate Junia but views her as a sister instead (Titans and Giants do not get along)
  • Roshida hates being compared to a flower, even though she's part nymph and her nickname is Rose/Rosie
  • Theo is compared to a puppy by Nieven in various instances
  • Airenwen is the only one in her family who supports Andromeda (they're sisters)
  • Ren translates for Andromeda (he interprets her sign language)
  • Isla is the oldest princess and spent her life training to be Queen, but gave it up to her little sister, Cinthia because Cin is just a natural leader and Isla has no idea how to talk to people (meanwhile, Cin has a ton of allies)
  • Demitri is the son of Death and works as a spy (he sees all… 0.0)
  • Archer is a prince who has literally no idea what to do because he was born into captivity (the empire was in pretty bad shape then…)
  • Cinthia babysits all of them and goes insane about three times a week

@HighPockets group

  • Lucas likes to make up stories about who his parents are for the orphanage kids. His favorite is that he's the product of a steamy affair with a king and a peasant woman, which turns out to be true
  • Maia is mute and uses the fae equivilant of sign language
  • Della has a dog named Puck/Robin, and amy (the most wonderful woman in the world) has a cat named Katnip Everdeen
  • Erica plays lacrosse and softball, Della plays softball, Teagan plays volleyball and does track, and amy (the most wonderful woman in the world) plays tennis

  • That most of my characters are either goo, animals, or a demon. There's only 1 human
  • Oh, also for some reason Dark turns out to always take care of then children, no matter what, he will end up take care of the children, even if there is no children in the first place, He will take care of a child somehow.
  • About 4 (out my 8 characters I have) are goo.
  • Sal (who I don't have public yet.) gets stupid levels of lusty at times.
  • I can't make a straight character for the life of me, so they are either gay, bi, or pan.

@HighPockets group

  • None of my characters are straight
  • Most of them are on the aro/ace spectrum
  • Victor's hair will probably start to grey by the time he's 30
  • Winnie is selectively mute
  • Joan and Nell are just barely taller than Nich
  • Jon is actually a pretty talented artist, and designed the swam logo on the pamphlet
  • Nich is actually really grossed out by blood, and he has passed out from seeing large amounts of it before
  • Therese is a fairly talented sniper
  • Ilona eventually did achieve their dream of becoming a successful actor in Creston, and is viewed there as a beloved celebrity/national treasure

@Althalosian-is-the-father book

Aiday is a Sikh.
Alec loves books.
Alene can sing really well, but would never be caught doing it.
Ancro and Chion are so connected that they can communicate almost soley with their hands and eyes.
Anna is autistic.
Daniella is a genderswap of a short story character named Daniel.
Gaius can play a flute really well from all his time alone with sheep.
Hydro was the first of the prequel kids I actually saw.

Lucas ran away with Zara for the purpose of trying to keep her safe even though he could have stayed home.
Nathaniel Harper is my first character who I knew was left handed.
Neirym occasionally regrets his actions.
Nmere is really rude, but only because he doesn't see the point in being polite.
Rogin is my literal self-insert.
Silas wanted to be a science professor before he was forced to join the Distincts. But he insisted on finishing school before he joined. Which is exactly what Daniella, who hates him the most, suggested.
Saia was based off of Aravis from The Horse and His Boy.
Tano might end up being Alex's father.
Theresa/Rune became the leader of the Distincts after she joined because her sister(?) was killed by a Fey.
Toran has one scene before Addar starts (So in a flashback.) where he is not named, but clever readers will figure out it is him.
Zara Gozan is named after the sieges of Zaragoza by Napoleons soldiers.
Zol was not supposed to be the protag of the prequel for Althalos. But he is.

  • Sal can (and has on multiple occasions) control people, or even make them her servants.
  • Sal, and Lucy can also absorb people and make them into more goo for themselves to use.
  • Crisp, Zine, and Dark write with their left hands, but do everything else with their right.
  • There has been occasions where Dark has thrown someone into a wall for touching one of his children.
  • Dark has been stabbed in the heart, only reason he lived is because his insides are goo, and repair themselves pretty fast.
  • Dark always has a knife on him
  • Crisp has escaped death (by a hair) about 3 times.

@Dragoncita group

*Lord Inferno (Elemental Lord of fire) when unable to have time out of his place, will make perfect female fire elementals and 'have fun' with those

*Fuego (a phoenix) will call any female he sees suitable as 'Pretty Bird'

*Felan (alpha wolf demon) will not admit it, but actually loves scratches between his ears, even in human form

*Levi (dire sabretooth) is a sucker for catnip

*Aracadius (Dragon Prophet) will sit in the middle of a rock before his waterfall and seemingly meditate. He's blind

*Lady Nana (Dragon Lady) is usually always seen in the brood caves, helping younger dragonelles with either newly hatched chicks and watching over others

*Lady Sheliak (Dragon Lady) was once worshipped by men, having them come for miles to catch a glimpse of her in her human form

*Lord Asus (Dragon Lord) lost part of his muzzle, which has been replaced by a specially crafted metal to create a beak-like muzzle now

*Lord Tyriohn (Dragon Lord) amuses himself by embarrassing his niece, Lady Sheliak

*Quietus (Unknown) a loyal servant to the god of Death, raised Mortality and Vukon'viing, both considered to be the first ever reaper dragons

*Veturius (Holy Dragon) is loyal, but gets downright jealous if he sees the Goddess of War with another. He's her most trusted servant, and they have had one child. Though if she told him to go kill himself, he'd find a way to do it just for his Goddess…

*Reaper Dragons are considered darker counterparts of the Holy Dragons

*Marinus is considered to be one of the first leviathans spawned, his original mother believed to be the great Ocean Wyrm: 'Neptis, Spawn of the Forgotten Trench'

*Alareth was once a former Dragon Lord, till he mated with a lindworm. Now he runs a library in Sylenrion Village, major village of the Dragonkin

*Dasaima, lindworm and mate to Alareth, has a temper and is not afraid to tear anyone apart if they speak ill of her or her kind, despite her short size when in human form

*Lamonor's (Dreamstone Dragon) preferred choice of weapon, when human form, is a rapier

@Starfast group

  • Ara's middle name is Raphael. The only reason why I chose this name was so that his initials will spell out his name.
  • Andor really hates pineapple. Especially on pizza.
  • Milo's name was never supposed to be Milo. That name was meant to be a temporary placeholder name until I came up with a better one, but I never did.

@Yamatsu

–Yamatsukami has no idea why his parents named him that, mostly because the word isn't found in either of his parents' native languages (it's actually Japanese, but I might have to find some justification for this later on).
–Aqua is actually my friend's OC, but he gave me permission to use him. If I get published, I might have to give him some royalties or something.
–Sharla never seems to wear her hair down unless she is sleeping, mostly due to her family prioritizing buns and pony-tails due to needing their hair in hair nets. Every one of them is either a surgeon or a doctor, so having her hair up has become a habit to the point where it feels weird to walk around with her hair down.
–Guinevere seems like a meathead due to her build and fascination with weaponry and fighting but is actually a whiz at math. She also knows how to run both a home and an army better than anyone.
–Gawain still has some PTSD from his upbringing in his family's mafia. For instance, he hates it when anyone touches his neck unless it is someone he deeply trusts. This came about from the popular neck-wrench method both his grandmother and other family members aside from his mother used to discipline him.
–Galahad's primary passion is making clothes/working as a tailor, but he also knits and crochets in his spare time.

@primaldesire

  • Alex wants a room filled with hourglasses and other things he finds interesting but has little to no purpose.
  • Isaac and Phoenix like working on cars together while Alex typically stays away since he is not interested in stuff like that
  • Glitch can drink black coffee but she only drinks it for working long nights or hours.
  • Kitrina's and Alex's song is "Mr. Sandman". They used to sing it all the time and it would remind them of each other. Now, when Alex hears, it almost makes him want to weep.
  • Rosalina loves fried ice cream and she usually has some for her birthday that he mom makes.
