moment of realization that Shart is half the map away because she refused to make a tiny jump

[maranull]

Would any of your ocs have pets?

And is there any kind of image that comes to mind of them spending time together if they do?

Ooooh, absolutely love these questions!!

~

Azatuhi has a dog (her bg3 version has Scratch, and she'll also have a dog in my original work). Subject to change, but I'm thinking that Aza owns a sidecar motorcycle (one of these), so the image that comes to mind is her riding with her dog on the passenger seat. Also, I have a pretty clear image of them walking side by side towards Viatrix's bookshop.

Viatrix herself has a water turtle, along with some other, less personable aquatic life. Its water tank is the most expensive thing in her apartment, and almost double the recommended size. Not set on a name for the water buddy yet, it will be very much a background creature. Time spent together would be Viatrix feeding it and watching it move around at night. She talks to it sometimes, and it helps hearing her thoughts out loud. I'm thinking something like... Deep into the night, with the only lights coming from the aquarium and the city lights through the window, Viatrix resting her head on the couch and talking to the shy turtle.

Elpis isn't fond of most animals, so she doesn't have any pets. But she does makes an exception for seagulls. They remind her of her time at sea, and she liked sailing so much that she's willing to ignore how much of a pain they can be. During her time at Elphael, she often took bread and walked around the docks, tossing pieces in the air or simply holding them up high for the seagulls to dive and "steal" them.

first iteration of Aza

VS

current iteration of Aza the only visual resemblance is the makeup :P

funny how this character born of a headache became my fav OC so quickly. I've only had her for one month!

[maranull]

a few Azatuhi screenshots cause I really like her

[maranull]

Azatuhi playlist:

it's small but it kinda follows her character arc

[maranull]

Doing most of these OC prompts/asks unprompted cause I have brainrot and I want to. Except for the five I answered here.

Azatuhi lore dive under the cut!

~

👁️ EYE - what colour are their eyes? do people notice their eyes? is there anything special about them (shows emotion easily, literally magical...)?

Green/purple. Green is more prominent and it stands out more from the black of her sclera. But the purple can be seen at the edges, if you get close enough.

🤥 LYING - are they good liars? do they have tells to show they're lying?

Depends. They can convince a stranger that elephants fly, but if she tries to lie to a friend or someone close to her, she short-circuits.

👻 GHOST - do they believe in ghosts? what are their "ghostly experiences", if any?

Yep! She hasn't met any themself, but she knows they exist.

💥 COLLISON - what emotions do they have trouble dealing with?

Hatred. It's much easier to fall back into her old self when she becomes truly furious, and she often fears that they might lose control.

😭 CRYING - what makes them cry? do they cry easily?

Hmm. It's weird. Sometimes they might start weeping cause a frog managed a big jump, sometimes they stay stone faced when seeing people mourning their lost ones. It's weird, there's no specific thing or situation that gets her, more like how she's mentally at the time.

👊 PUNCH - are they quick to violence?

Not really. Aza prefers to talk things out if possible.

💢 ANGER - what are some habits they have that will take some getting used to?

They smack their tongue when thinking, the sound can get annoying. When she's annoyed but doesn't want to say anything, her tail becomes like an unpredictable whip, so it's best to learn to stay away.

👪 FAMILY - what is their family like? what is your ocs relationship to them? does your oc have any siblings?

She doesn't consider her creator family. She does feel bad for her sister, but she won't cry when she dies.

😨 FEARFUL - when scared, do they go into "flight" or "fight"?

Fight.

💤 SLEEPING - do they fall asleep easily? what helps them sleep?

They are a very light sleeper and it's really hard to actually start sleeping. It helps hugging something, be it a plushie or her partner.

🥞 PANCAKE - what is their comfort breakfast?

A good toast does the job for them.

🎂 BIRTHDAY CAKE - when is their birthday? do they like celebrating it?

She doesn't know when she was born actually. Her partner threw out the idea to make up a birthday at the day she broke free of her creator and they now celebrate that.

🍩 DONUT - favourite sweet treat?

Honey right out of the beehive.

🍟 FRIES - do they order food often? or they prefer to cook their own food?

She prefers going to the tavern, but they are alright with cooking.

☕️ HOT BEVERAGE - do they prefer hot or cold drinks? what is their favourite drink?

Hot! They really like testing different leaves for tea. Half the time they get sick, so it's good their partner is a healer :P

🍓 STRAWBERRY - do they eat their fruit & veg? what is their favourite fruit or vegetable?

Fav fruit is strawberry! Not a huge fan of veggies, but they like broccoli cause they think it looks nice.

🍰 CAKE SLICE - favourite cake flavour? are they specific about types of cakes?

Strawberry again! She actually doesn't really like cakes, usually she just gets a slice out of politeness.

🍧 SHAVED ICE - do they still have any objects from their childhood? what significance does it have to them? what would their reaction be if they lost it?

Nope.

🌙 MOON - what is your oc's greatest wish? how far are they willing to go for it?

After being freed from their creator, they don't really have any grant goals or hopes. They just like traveling around, without any ambitions.

🌋 VOLCANO - how bad is their temper? is it a slow boil, or a instant explosion?

She gets angry easily, but rarely lets it show. When she finally explodes, whomever pissed her off better run.

🌺 HIBISCUS - do they have any allergies?

Nope.

🍁 MAPLE LEAF - what is their favourite season? why?

Summer. They really love the touch of the sun on their skin.

🍃 FALLING LEAF - do they enjoy being in nature? what is their favourite outdoor activity?

She loves it! Her favourite thing is listening to the sounds around her. She also really likes spotting wild animals.

☀️ SUN - are they a morning person? what is the first thing they do in the morning?

Sort of. They wake up really early but don't leave the bed/bedroll until someone starts nudging them.

🕷️ SPIDER - what is their biggest fear? do they have any irrational / mundane fears?

That the Dark Urge will suddenly return and she's lose control.

🙈 SEE-NO-EVIL - whats a side of your oc that they don't want to show other people?

The ease and skill with which she can kill. She doesn't like it, but if need be, she can tear anything apart with her own hands.

🙊 SPEAK-NO-EVIL - what is something your oc will refuse to stay quiet about?

Harm to others.

🙉 HEAR-NO-EVIL - what is the worse thing your oc could hear from someone?

That she's her creator's daughter.

🌱 SEEDLING - what is their most vivid memory from childhood?

She has none, and that's probably for the best.

🍀 CLOVER - do they believe in luck? are they lucky?

They do. Most of their life, they thought they were unlucky, but after breaking free, her partner and having real friends, that belief is slowly changing.

🌏 EARTH - will they give up the world for someone they love? is this decision easy for them?

Oh, yeah. The decision isn't easy, but if her partner, her friend or her friend's kid were in danger, she would turn the world to ash.

🌌 MILKY WAY - what was the inspiration behind your oc? what was the first thing you decided about them?

There's no specific inspiration that I can think of... The first think was her curved horns :P

⚾ BASEBALL - can they play sports? what is their best position if they play a team sport? what's their strong suit (speed, power etc.)?

Does playing fetch with her dog count? :P She's pretty fast and agile at that.

🏊 SWIMMING - can they swim? or are they afraid of water? how well do they swim? how do they feel about swimming in the ocean?

They can, but they don't like it. The ocean fascinates and scares them.

📣 MEGAPHONE - how loud are they? what do they speak like? got a voice claim?

They can be pretty loud when they want, but usually keep their voice down. Their voice is a bit raspy and rough.

📖 OPEN BOOK - do they like reading? what's their favourite genre?

She does. Doesn't have a fav book but she's generally into myths and legends. Given how she's seen some legends be truth, she likes to imagine that all of them are real.

🪤 MOUSE TRAP - what will always lure them into certain danger? a loved one in danger? a promise of something they are always searching for?

Curiosity and loved ones in danger.

✂️ SCISSORS - what is the "last straw" for them to cut someone out of their life? how easily do they let go of people?

Hurting her. And lying, though it depends on the lie and the reaction of the person when they get caught/come out with it.

💡 LIGHTBULB - is your oc a planner? do they write down every small detail or just wing it?

Winging it all the way babyyyy!

💎 DIAMOND - how rich are they? can they live the lifestyle they want to?

Not rich, but the lifestyle she wants is pretty cheap so she's doing just fine with busking and the occasional tavern gig.

🎁 PRESENT - what types of presents would they be most happy to receive? are they good at gift giving?

They mostly like practical gifts, like balm for her horns or new boots. But if someone makes her something, no matter how useless it is, they'll hold it dear forever. They decent-ish at gift giving.

🍼 BABY BOTTLE - what are their thoughts on children?

Cute, as long they are not her full-time responsibility. They babysit for their friends kid, and they like the little guy, but they're content with being the cool aunt.

🔪 KNIFE - how do they react to injury / misfortune befalling their loved ones (significant other, family, friends)? do they put themselves at blame?

First thing is making sure that their loved one is okay. When they are stabilised/healed, hell breaks loose and whomever hurt them is not going to see the next sunrise. They don't blame themself, they take things as they come, and the past is the past. She'll do all she can do in the present and hope that's enough.

👑 CROWN - what does your oc want to be remembered as? why?

As the cool auntie and a good friend. And if younger bards played some of her original songs, that would be pretty cool.

🎤 MICROPHONE - are they good at singing? what is their go-to karaoke song?

Pretty decent. It's her job after all.

🎷 SAXOPHONE - do they play any instruments? are they any good at it?

Lyre and drums! Bit of lute and flute too, thought very basic stuff with those.

👖 JEANS - what is their go-to outfit?

Whatever pants she can find and a shirt. She doesn't really care about clothes outside of her job. When performing she just wears her classic bard outfit that she has painted with red tones.

🎨 PALETTE - can they draw? what do they like to draw?

Nope! They like doodling circles thought and sometimes they happen upon a good looking pattern by accident.

⏳ HOURGLASS - are they usually late or on-time?

On time, sometimes earlier.

🔫 PISTOL - do they trust people easily? how easily will they turn their back to someone? have they been backstabbed before? will they betray someone if given an ultimatum?

They trust easily, but their trust also breaks easily as well. They would betray acquaintances if given compelling enough reasons, but they would never betray their closest people.

📦 PACKAGE - what are some "most likely to..." that can apply to them?

Most likely to headbutt a goat. Most likely to make dumb jokes.

🖍️ CRAYON - what advice would you give to them?

Nothing, she's doing pretty good on her own.

⚙️ GEAR - what are your ocs thoughts on science & art? which do they give more importance to? how much value do they place on each?

Azatuhi lives for art. Firstly for music, as that's what she's dedicated herself to, but she also loves art as a whole. She thinks a life without some joy being taken from art is a very sad one. She respects science and all that, thought she kinda treats it like art, as in considering a chemist an artist for example. She thinks it's just a different kind of artwork.

🔧 WRENCH - are they good at fixing relationships? or do they tend to avoid doing so?

Nope. If she cuts a relationship there's no going back. She's pretty stubborn at that.

❇️ SPARKLE - what is their most prized possession? what do they value?

Their lyre(s). One is their own that they had since forever, the other she was given by an enemy that became a friend.

📏 RULER - is your oc well educated? where did they get their learning from?

They try to be. They never received a formal education though, so all they learn is through their travels and life. They can read and write perfectly fine, both words and music.

🚆 TRAIN - what is their answer to the trolley problem?

If the one person is someone she knows and likes, RIP to the group. Though her first instinct would be to try and derail the trolley somehow.

🌩️ LIGHTNING - are they scared of lightning?

Another one of her friends is pretty adept with lighting magic, so she learned to ignore the sounds.

❄️ SNOWFLAKE - do people consider them cold? if so, what made them this way?

Nope!

🌪️ TORNADO - what is the biggest change you've ever made to them? how have they changed from their original version?

They were originally a Drow, a bit overly trusting and they also didn't really mind killing people then.

🌈 RAINBOW - what advice would they give to their younger self?

Fucking run.

☁️ CLOUD - a soft headcanon

They have written pieces about each of their friends.

🌟 GLOWING STAR - what do they think about when they look at the night sky? is there someone they want to star gaze with?

Their best friend was born somewhere in the stars, so they usually wonder where that place is in the vastness of the sky.

💓 BEATING HEART - what gets their heart racing?

Their partner :)

💘 HEART W/ ARROW - what traits do they look for in a relationship? do they believe in love at first sight?

No specific traits and no belief in love at first sight.

❤️ RED HEART - their love language(s)?

Spending time close to them, small touches.

💙 BLUE HEART - do they miss their s/o easily? how do they act when their s/o isn't around?

They don't separate much, but it isn't a big deal when they do. Her jokes are less flirty when their partner isn't around, but that's it.

Azatuhi, my beloved OC

[maras-virtual-lens]

[maranull]

MARA MARA MARA MARA!!

For Azatuhu:

PAPERCLIP - a random fact.

MASKS - do they act differently around certain people? what's different between the way they act around friends, family, strangers, etc.?

SHOOTING STAR - if they could make any wish with no repercussions, what wish would they make?

GREEN HEART - what things make your oc feel comforted? hugs, kisses, food?

RIBBON - how would they fit into other worlds / aus? what aus would you like to try out? what fictional world would they fit / not fit into?

BIM!! WAH!

Thank you for asking about her, I'm obsessed.

~

PAPERCLIP: Azatuhi can do tail pull-ups! She has a generally really strong and nimble tail and tends to use it at every chance she gets. One time a song of hers called for background beat, so she used her tail for a drum while she played the lyre normally.

MASKS: A bit. To strangers and acquaintances she's fairly cheery and a bit of a joker. And with friends or partners she usually likes talking a bit more seriously (but still likes her jokes here and there). With enemies, she resembles more the person she was before her amnesia, i.e. Bhaal's murder-happy daughter.

SHOOTING STAR: They haven't escaped her Dark Urge yet, so for now she'd wish for the Urge to disappear. If that's not an issue, probably just some good cake. Or for her lyre's strings to always be in the tune she wants them in. Depends if she's hungry or not when asked.

GREEN HEART: Music, laying down on big rocks, writing her journal late at night.

RIBBON: Oh, she'd be at home in Dragon Age, traveling around and paying her meals and beds with singing. I think also Mass Effect would fit them, probably also doing live shows around the galaxy and occasionally bonking people that are being dicks. I think they would had volunteer to enter the Arcs for Andromeda too. I'm also gonna add her to my original work I've been quietly (and very, very slowly) brewing! :D

Also here's another pic of her cause I'm sooo normal about this character:
