who are they? (name/age/overview/etc.)
Chester, around 14 or so earth years. usually he/him pronouns.
He's the sarcastic, depressed, loner with a bleak outlook on life. not only is he disappointed in the world he lives in but he can't even feel comfortable in his own body, in his production he was defective, his body wouldn't take the modifications. so now he's stuck with the strange uncomfortable organic pleasure organs, he is repulsed by. he spends all his time in the room connected to his mind, where anything he could imagine is.
what/who inspired you 2 create them?
Eh, there was some person at the fair in a black hoodie who had chin length lavender hair, at that same fair there was this guy who just looked at everything so analytically with his hands together in a triangular shape fingers intertwined at the top. and I thought 'what if these two were friends?' and that is how Chester and his lavender hair came to be… and his strange, awkward but smart "friend" Lincoln… kinda weird…
how much have they changed since u first made them, if at all?
Well, first he was more anxious than depressed. but then he just kept getting more and more depressed as time went on. also at one point he had voices in his head, personalities.(Realistic fiction) but later he was part of an apocalyptic story. now he's part of sci-fi slice of life story, he is also now hurting constantly from his manufacturing malfunction.
what's a fun fact or piece of trivia?
He has a huge marble collection.. also he spends all his time in the room connected to his mind, most of the general population have theirs locked, its said to be dangerous to spend too much time in there.
do they have a theme song or a playlist?
If you want to get a feel for his character.
Cotton candy by McCafferty
Mary Z by McCafferty (though after 2:20 in the song it stops being his song.)
Pretty much just McCafferty, but especially the feeling of the album Yarn.
do they have a catchphrase? what would it be if not?
This Chester comes with five cool phrases, which include.
"No…"
"Do I look like I care?"
"Leave me alone"
" Don't touch me"
And saying nothing at all!…
what's ur favorite thing about them? (could be their name/backstory/powers/personality/etc.)
His favorite thing about himself is his hair. My favorite thing about him is Probably his slightly sarcastic has already given up on life way of talking and thinking and living. like he knows his life is a joke and has probably gone on too long, He knows he won't be getting any correction surgeries for at least a couple years, he knows he hasn't and probably won't do anything with his life. he knows how worthless he is. and he references it as much as possible.
do they represent anything for you/mean anything special?
He's actually a metaphor for gender dysphoria. How he was manufactured and the fact he can't change it till he's old enough. and how he hates it. how it's seen as attractive to certain groups of people. how he can't handle living without bandaging it up (the parts left, he's not human, the parts is in his chest).
how similar/different are you compared 2 them?
He is pretty much me when I was thirteen/fourteen. He sits all day in a room in his basement, so did I. He thought about death, so did I. he didn't have any friends, neither did I.
would you personally like them if they were a real person? would u get along?
I'm too socially anxious and neither of us would try hard enough to become friends with each other. though if we were forced to talk to each other we'd probably not get much past introducing ourselves.
anything else you want 2 include!
He's never met someone who is unmodified, he's afraid they can tell he still has that part. he also doesn't really know how they act when stimulated. There is one person from where he lives who has the same malfunction as him, but they seem better adjusted than he, also they kinda like their parts, and since Chester is the only one with the same, the person kinda wishes Chester liked his, but they don't push him…
