i want to hear about the ocs 😌
hii :] so i decided i would kind of give a broad overview of my ocs in general, there's a couple of main groups (i have too many in general to fit in one post but this includes the main ones i talk/think/write/draw about the most).
also tagging @a-vacuole because you were interested in hearing about my ocs in a broad sense :]
UNTITLED MAIN WIP
this is my oldest project! it's a fantasy story set in a kingdom where the royal family is descended from nai, the god of fire. they rule with the ability to manipulate flame and are revered as demigods by their kingdom's religion. however, not every member of the royal family has the privilege of being born with this ability.....
this story follows teo and lorelei as they enter this kingdom and attempt to track down teo's missing mother and accidentally end up kidnapping the king in the process!
relevant ocs:
- theodore "teo" troeger
- lorelei
- azar "az" adler
- veronika "ronnie" adler
- anton romanovski
- ilya (+ bonus ask from before)
- nikolaj romanovski
- evelin troeger
- & more!
SHARP TEETH
i spoke about sharp teeth in an earlier post but it's my vampire wip! it's set in a fantasy world where the sun's light is cast extremely unevenly over the surface of the world, and so certain areas are permanently cast in darkness - allowing vampires to thrive.
in the cloudy twilight of korosvet, niki is a hunter of supernatural phenomena tracking down the entity that murdered his mentor. but in the process of investigating he runs into marta and dion, vampires in disguise investigating the mysterious disappearance of their own leader...
relevant ocs:
- nikita "niki" volkov
- dion kalos
- marta săvulescu
- adela săvulescu
- lena
IMMORTALS
i've also spoken about my immortal ocs before! these guys started out as roleplay ocs but have since evolved into a greater canon of their own :]
the idea here is that it's possible to become something other than human -- something immortal -- by making a pact with certain entities. over 400 years ago, this is how oscar transcended his humanity and in the process bound his lover tobias to a cycle of reincarnation. every time tobias dies, he is reborn and oscar scours the earth to find him and restore the memory of his past lives to him and continue their romance. except.... it's not always that simple.
in his current iteration, tobias (a professor) happens to be engaged/married to a woman named alice when oscar comes across him. once it becomes clear that tobias does not intend to split from her naturally, oscar decides to take a more underhanded approach and begins to court one of alice's friends (hilde). despite the fact that alice thinks he's bad news, he says he will only leave hilde alone if tobias returns to his side. after a series of convoluted events, hilde is now a mother of twins (andy and orlando), while alice and tobias have experienced a divorce. oscar, though his goal of wooing tobias failed, is content as long as there is no-one else for him.
while oscar and tobias have their Situation, hilde's children grow up and hear whispers of their father and how he ruined the life of their mother and pretty much everyone in her life too. andy, who sees ghosts, runs away from home as a teen to chase revenge -- which leaves orlando behind to take care of their mother. eventually, with a push from his (only) friend aisling, orlando and andy reunite in a combined effort to find and kill oscar once and for all.
just realised i completely forgot to mention lilith too. she's oscar's sister, they met when he was only newly made immortal. he showed her how to make a pact and take vengeance on her abusers, and she slaughtered them all with her newfound power. their loyalty to each other is unflinching and when fighting together are pretty much impossible to defeat.
relevant ocs:
- oscar
- lilith
- tobias
- alice sinclaire
- hilde falksen
- orlando falksen
- andy falksen
- aisling o'malley
ATANI FAMILY
if you've been following me for a while you've probably seen me tag posts as darius or ophelia. Yeah they're from the atani family. technically they're characters from a wider fantasy canon but that project is HEAVILY on the backburner 👍 the atanis however make my brain whir and PARTICULARLY darius so you will probably see me discuss them at length.
there's not a particular plot for them at the moment and i'm famous for putting darius into Situations but some context is probably needed. ophelia atani is the matriarch of the atani family, and the youngest of 4 sisters (iris, faline, orianna & ophelia). despite being the youngest -- and often considered the most ditzy -- she managed to claw her way to power as the house's head and an influential figure in politics.
to this day ophelia has a reputation for being a materialistic and even hedonistic woman whose vanity rules her life. anyone who knows her well will tell you that she has a powerful presence and a strong personality, and to publically disagree with her is at your own peril.
given all of this, it shouldn't surprise you to learn that her marriages tend not to last very long. she divorced her first husband (father of her sons leon and pierre) not long after the birth of her second son, and her third son roman was born a couple of marriages later to her last official partner, gregor. her fourth and final son, darius, is ostensibly also gregor's....but rumours are hard to quell, and people have always gossiped about ophelia and her family.
while ophelia is the undisputed matriarch of the family, her son roman is by far the most popular and well-liked member of the family. a dazzling smile and polite demeanor have built him a reputation as the most personable atani and potentially the future heir to the family's political capital.
but every shining light has its shadow, and roman's shadow is darius. a career man, devoted to paperwork over people, darius has never shared his brother's easygoing charisma or radiant presence. an unimpressed look or a dismissive tilt of the head come far more naturally than smiles or grand, sweeping gestures. while roman rallies the people, darius works behind the scenes. while roman attends galas, darius makes deals that stay under the table.
despite being brothers, there is no love lost between them. raised in a society where competition is encouraged, they use each other to grow more powerful before their enemies can eat them.
this is also the kind of dynamic darius shares with luc, a fellow young aristocrat with a shady reputation. despite his father adrian's reputation as a paragon of justice, luc is a smuggler and supplier of black market goods among the upper echelon of society. he and darius are useful to each other for the time being -- darius grants luc some protection in his endeavours, and in return luc gets his hands dirty so that darius doesn't have to. but a relationship like this between two liars is destined not to last long.
relevant ocs:
- ophelia atani
- gregor atani
- leon atani
- pierre atani
- roman atani
- darus atani
- adrian wolfe
- antoine lucius "luc" wolfe
D&D OCS
i love my d&d ocs SO MUCH. so they're included here too :] they're all from different campaigns so their overviews will be Very Brief but i hope my love for them is obvious :]
JUSTICE GOLDENLIGHT (19) is a red tiefling assassin who belongs to an assassin's guild run by her father, patience. justice has been honed into a perfect assassin since she was young, and in the wake of her brother benevolence's disappearance she is her father's most valuable tool.
JULIEN ANAIVE (20) is an elven cleric raised by a high priestess of the war goddess. left on the doorstep of the temple and raised as a holy warrior of the temple, jules has always been uncomfortable with the pressure and expectations placed on her by the overbearing high priestess and eventually escapes her control with the power of a holy relic of the war goddess. now she is being chased across the sea by powerful bounty hunters and is forced to not use her magic in order to avoid being tracked.
SETI THE BRIGHT (60s) is an orc paladin, a knight, and the personal bodyguard of princess nebetah of the river kingdom. famous for her powerful deeds during her lifetime, scandal occurs when she is framed for the murder of the king and banished. now, using the name rainier, she is on the hunt for the true culprit so she can return to the side of her beloved wife, the princess.
ISAAC ASTOR (28) is a half-elf arcane trickster with a pied-winged swallow familiar, and technically also a college dropout. raised in comfortable wealth, he coasted through magic school on his own talent until he caught wind of the school board's decision to expel him. in college by this point, he recruits a classmate with a special interest in magic theory (sebastian valentini) to help him develop a more reliable version of a magical technique outlawed for its notorious danger. spoiler alert: isaac dies. their lab explodes and isaacs body is stolen from the scene before the authorities can lock it down.....and he is revived by a mysterious organisation that promises him he can stay alive as long as he promises not to contact his family/friends and completes dangerous tasks for them.
