‘Cause sometimes the stories of how OCs come to be are just as interesting as the OCs, themselves. Tell me how your virtual kids came into the world.
- What was the first element of your OC that you remember considering (name, appearance, backstory, etc.)?
- Did you design them with any other characters/OCs from their universe in mind?
- How did you choose their name?
- In developing their backstory, what elements of the world they live in played the most influential parts?
- Is there any significance behind their hair color?
- Is there any significance behind their eye color?
- Is there any significance behind their height?
- What (if anything) do you relate to within their character/story?
- Are they based off of you, in some way?
- If they have an LI, how much of their character is tailored to be compatible to that person?
- Did you know what the OC’s sexuality would be at the time of their creation?
- What have you found to be most difficult about creating art for your OC (any form of art: writing, drawing, edits, etc.)?
- How far past the canon events that take place in their world have you extended their story, if at all?
- If you had to narrow it down to 2 things that you MUST keep in mind while working with your OC, what would those things be?
- What is something about your OC can make you laugh?
- What is something about your OC can make you cry?
- Is there some element you regret adding to your OC or their story?
- What is the most recent thing you’ve discovered about your OC?
- What is your favorite fact about your OC?
Eclipse (Transformers/MTMTE)
1. Backstory mostly.
2. Yep! I had Ratchet in mind, but she ended up looking like Drift. Gonna redesign her colors and markings soon.
3. I don’t really remember to be honest.
4. The civil war between Autobots and Decepticons.
5. She doesn’t have hair, but I made her armor red and white to look like Ratchet’s sort of.
6. Well, all Autobots have blue optics, so not really.
7. I’m short so this mofo gets to be short too.
8. Death of multiple loved ones.
9. Personality mostly.
10. I don’t understand this question??
11. Yup!
12. Drawing, because I can’t fucking draw for the life of me. I got lucky that the two pieces of art I did of her looked decent. Please my art friends, teach me your ways!!
13. I have to update her story after I finish Lost Light.
14. Looks and backstory.
15. Her sarcasm.
16. Her original backstory made me tear up when I reread it (it was also super fucking cringey so I deleted it)
17. Nope
18. Her AI is corrupting her slowly and reawakening the Decepticon in her
19. She can shock bots by biting them (looong story). So like, she and her s/o could be all kissy and she gets all nippy and forgets she electrocutes bots so there’s an accident/
