third part of my "drawing visibly disabled people" drawing series :-) can't wait to do more TBH! it's so much fun drawing people like me.

[1] [2]

[image description copied from alt text: digital drawing of 11 characters on a pastel background. in the top left are two guys. the first one is white, fat, and wears a face mask. the second guy is white, blonde and an above knee amputee. they're talking. below them are three characters shown from the chest up; a Brown person with a cochlear implant, a niqabi with small eyes and only one of them appearing open holding a white cane (both of them have lesbian flags and matching rings), and a Black girl with Down Syndrome looking at her phone. The first two are giving their excited reactions to her. to the right of them is a family - a Black person without an arm and with a prosthetic leg using a cane, a South Asian pregnant woman with strabismus holding a white cane and their daughter holding on to her mom's clothes. on the right side of the image is a person using crutches, looking exhausted. they have a liver transplant scar and knock knees. next to them is a short Black man with osteogenesis imperfecta in a power wheelchair. he wears hearing aids. behind them is a burn survivor with locs typing on her phone - it has a notification with the OK sign in the colors of the character in bottom left.]

More cute, i can’t stop. OCs Ozone and Four cuddles, a little mini ghoul pile. He is so much shorter than Oz, Four can just easily curl up on top of him. 

Also, Ozone’s room is basically an old storage closet so, everything is mismatched and the sectional was the only thing long enough to accommodate him. Someone get this ghoul a proper room and a bed. At least he is far away from the human siblings and clergy.

@readitnreap is also coloring this one and I can’t wait to reblog their version too!

What's your neurodivergent OCs favorite stim toys/ways to stim?

Lana: chews gum, taps on her steering wheel, clicks and flips pens

Vice: chews ice and clicks pens

Berrie: taps his fingers, chews pens, twirls her ring or a fidget spinner, kicks or taps his feet, and pulls on the sleeves of their sweaters until they fall apart (Eobard tried to buy them sturdier sweaters but it didn't help lol)

Eoland: tugs her gloves, licks her lips, and tilts her head/stretches her neck

Barbara: paces and fiddles with whatever is in her hands

H Wells: toys with her glasses, fiddles with the tools in her hands, twirls pens (no clicking, she hates the noise), clasps her hands together, sorts small objects (screws, etc), she used to pace

Hartley: sorts small objects, crosses her arms, taps her fingers and feet

Eden: shakes her leg or foot, fiddles with the ring Ira proposed to her with, goes a round with a punching bag

Ricki: contorts herself into different positions, hangs upside down from things, clicks pens, tears up foam coffee cups into small pieces after she's done drinking

Jessie: takes her hands in and out of her pockets, fiddles with her hearing aids, cleans her weapons

L'Harann: gardens

Alana: toys with her glasses, flips pens, paces

Lara: toys with her mobility aids, takes apart and puts pens back together, goes a round with a punching bag

Angel: clicks pens (and drives Jisoo crazy because he doesn't realize he's doing it) and plays with squishies and stress balls

HUMAN AU - Amadora and Lluvia

So, I've been thinking of making a human AU to self-indulge in their meeting while they were younger.

Lluvia would have been a history student. Amadora would have been a teaching student.

Amadora is still blind in this AU, not fully blind, she can see if she holds the objects really closely to her face.

Lluvia lost her leg in a car accident while she was a high school freshman.

And they meet when the college board puts them together as dorm mates. Amadora´s parents are upset about it, they had requested an individual dorm for Ama to accommodate her. Lluvia is also upset. She had requested an individual room because she's a wheelchair user. But I think you know the rest.

Fan Gym Leaders

So basically, I'm working on a project regarding my fan pokemon region (Gira) and the process includes creating a badge case. Right now, the portraits for each gym leader are complete!

Left to right, top to bottom, that's the order in which the protagonists fight them and in which I'll talk about them after the cut!

Jada, Normal Type gym leader

She/Her · 45 yo · High school Biology teacher · During the week, she lives in Ribera City for work, during the weekends she lives in Sun Town with her husband's (also a gym leader) family and their children

Jada specializes in normal types, her full team consisting of: Blissey, Dubwool, Snorlax, Braviary, Porigon2 and Ursaluna.

Her gym is integrated into the school she works at, though she only accepts challengers outside of school hours. In her free time, she researches pokemon on her own or with colleagues, including the local Pokemon Professor. She will often use her own pokemon to help illustrate the lesson she’s teaching.

Jett, Steel Type gym leader

She/Her · 19 yo · Guitarrist and Vocalist of her heavy metal band · Lives in Eco City

Jett specializes in steel types, her full team being: Aggron, Corviknight, Aegislash, Lucario, Scizor and Bisharp.

She's sadly a character which I can't reveal much of without spoilers, but what's safe to say is:

She sings and plays guitar for her band the Lone Bar Knights (pls appreciate the pun). They often do gigs at the gym itself and even though they only started recently, they got quite a bit of local popularity and some international fans inside of the heavy metal genre. The other members are: Mia (Bassist · she/her), Alba (Keyboadist · they/them) and Periell (Drummer, he/him).

Two toxtricitys have befriended the band, but none of the members have caught them.

Salix, Fairy Type gym leader

He/Him · 10 yo · Grade school student · Lives in Canopy Town

Salix specializes in fairy types, his full team being: Togekiss, Alcremie, Florges, Hatterene, Sylveon and Gardevoir✨.

He lives with his single mother. They depend of his position as a gym leader to afford living. He studies in the same school in which Jada teaches, just some grades lower than her level. The rest of the league put great effort on him not getting involved with evil team bullshit amongst other things.

Lux, Electric Type gym leader

They/Them · 17 yo · High school student, prepparing to go into engineering · Lives in Newlight City

Lux specializes in electric types, their full team being: Kuxray, Rotom (wash), Toxtricity, Eelektross, Electivire and Magnezone.

They're chronically ill, having trouble breathing, that's why they use a nasal cannula. Their grandfather, Volta, was the previous gym leader of the city, their legal guardian and also the person who they got their electivire from. Both Lux and Volta work to improve the city. They also have an older brother, Andre, who works at the local battle facility, the Battle Stadium. When they can't be at their gym due to their illness, either Volta or Andre cover for them.

Nero, Dark Type gym leader

He/They · 27 yo · [REDACTED] · Lives in Madder City, born and lived in Castelia City until he was 17

Nero specializes in dark types, his full team being: Zoroark, Mandibuzz, Krookodile, Scrafty, Hydreigon and Liepard

They're really fucking secretive, so anything I could say about them is a spoiler. I can reveal this though: His number one hobby is making his zoroark get disguised as him, avoiding interviews and league meetings.

Leau, Water Type gym leader

He/Him · 45 yo · Waterpolo coach · During the week, he lives in Escull City for work, during the weekends he lives in Sun Town with his family

Remember Jada's husband? That's right, here he is!

Leau specializes in water types, his full team being: Pelipper, Lapras, Poliwrath, Swampert, Floatzel and Toxapex

He's a waterpolo coach, his gym being in the same place he works at. He was born without an arm and uses a very colorful prosthetic. he specializes in double battles and last but not least: he has a floatzel themed hoodie.

Nani, Icy Type gym leader

She/Her · 24 yo · Model · Lives in Rosada Town, born in Po Town prior whatever happened for it to be like it is in canon, lived in the Aether house until she was 18

Nani specializes in ice types, her full team being: Vanilluxe, Weavile, Galarian Darmanitan, Frosmoth, Glaceon, Alolan Ninetales

She works as a model and always makes sure that the other members of the league are fashionable, arguing that they should have a good image. Her parents died when she was too young to remember, so she lived in the Aether House (and yes, she knows Acerola and Nanu). She moved to Gira when she was 18 because she found a job as a model and subsequently became a gym leader.

She has no trouble with cold, wearing a crop-top in freezing temperatures. This is unlike her girlfriend Sol, the fire type Elite Four who can't stand the cold in any way.

Last but not least: Alma, Ghost Type gym leader

She/Her · [REDACTED] · Historian and Librarian · Lives in Mitjanit City, born and lived in Snowpoint until 20 years prior to the story

Alma specializes in ghost types, her full team being: Dusknoir✨, Cofagrigus, Sableye, Basculegion, Mismagius and Chandelure.

The final one of the spoiler trinity, but not as bad as the other two. Her gym is the oldest one in the region, being at the top of an equally big (and beautiful) library. Other than taking care of the library, she's also a historian, being really interested in the Hisuan period. Her whole precense is built around a creepy victorian and/or retro aesthetic.

There are definetly false rumours of her being a ghost, which she likes to joke about and tease. Not because they might be true in the slightlest, no, no-

(if you've read all of that. woah. thank you)

Are there gonna be more disabled characters?

There already are! Here's a list also including neurodiversity

Chronic Pain and use of mobility aids: Jane and Typhon

Blindness: Juniper and Reagan (she also has albinism which is why she's blind)

Autism: Virginia, Rudolph, January, Janet (I've been toying with the idea of Janet also having ADHD)

Chronic Stutter: Paloma

This isnt part of my Rise of MHA!Au, but I got really inspired to add one of my favorite ocs into the main rise universe.

Their human appearance is based off of Rihanna in that Battleship movie (which deserves WAY more love than it was given, at least from what I can remember)

Here’s some more of them with some clearer writing (thank the clip studio gods for their text system) and their partner. She’s an akabeko-inspired Yōkai. And a lacrosse player even outside of her education system. But she does it for fun nowadays. Also she’s been deaf from birth and uses a cochlear implant and a hearing aid. They bonded over their disabilities at a convention a year ago

Hope y’all like them as much as I do, cuz I’m gonna have a few more pictures coming y’all’s way

A guide to designing wheelchair using characters!

I hope this helps anyone who's trying to design their oc using a wheelchair, it's not a complete guide but I tried my best! deffo do more research if you're writing them as a character

[swirly-potato]

Hello tumblr disabled community.

i am able-bodied, but i'm trying to write my character becoming permanently disabled. She is terrified of being a burden and hates herself for needing other people, and i want to do a character arc where she comes to accept her disability as part of her. this is the beginning. Is this a good start, and what can I change to make this a more realistic?

[“I don’t need a cane,” I said miserably. It was bad enough that I was already so dependent. Needing a cane to walk just felt like salt in the wound. I was already so many things—stupid, incompetent, weak…I didn’t want to add disabled to the list. The word tasted like blood in my mouth.]

Thanks for the help?
