Never done one of these before, so I have pretty low expectations lol. Anywho, y'all are v welcome to ask me about my boys!
Send me a number and an OC and I'll write up a little blurb.
Here's some ref sheets/introductions:
Vrykoth [D&D 5e]
Andrei Pavlenko aka "Roach" [Fallout 3]
Angst questions
Yeah so um I decided to make an oc ask meme based around angst. Some of these I came up with myself, others are from other ask memes and I just picked the angsty ones so here goes:
1. What’s one experience your character had that made them very afraid?
2. Does your character have a deep and/or dark secret? If so, what is it?
3. Have they ever lost a loved one? What happened to them, and are they the same as they were before they lost them?
4. Has your character ever been hurt or betrayed by someone they thought they could depend on? What happened?
5. Would they ever turn on someone they just met in order to save themselves?
6. Have they ever committed a crime, or something they felt was wrong? What was it?
7. If your character was allowed to murder one person without any consequences, who would it be and why?
8. Does your character have any enemies? If so, who and why?
9. Is the character a victim of abuse?
10. What were the character’s parents like? What was the affect the parents had on the character?
11. What are your character’s coping mechanisms?
12. Do they like to suffer? Like to see other people suffering?
13. What does it take to make your character cry?
14. What is your character’s biggest relationship flaw? Has this flaw destroyed relationships for them before?
15. What is their biggest fear? What in general scares them? How do they act when they’re scared?
16. What are your character’s vices and bad habits?
17. Is your character afraid of death? Why/why not?
18. Would society call your character a good guy or a bad guy? what would they say they are?
19. What is your character insecure about?
20.  What was something they struggled with greatly and how did they overcome it?
21. Does your character have anyone that they really care about, to the point that they would give their life for them? If so, who are they and what is your character’s relation to them? If not, do they wish they did? Is there anyone they wish they could build such a relationship with?
22. If they could change just one thing about themselves, what would it be?
23. Is your character more physically or emotionally strong? Why is this?
24. What is your character’s most important possession? Why?
25. Do they find that they care what others think of them? Or do they not really mind how others view them?
26. What, in your character’s life, puts the most pressure on them?
27.  What would be the worst way to die, in your character’s opinion?
28. What is your character’s greatest strength?
29. What is their weapon of choice, and what weapon do they dislike using the most?
30. What makes them feel safe or secure? What makes them feel insecure or unsafe?

Back on my bullshit with this skrunkly douchebag, so I figured I might as well share him here
Meet Vrykoth, my Reborn warlock from an ongoing Underdark adventure. He started out by bumblefucking his way through life as a mediocre Githyanki, until he got his insides liquefied by a strigoi about a year into our campaign... After which his dead husk got reanimated by his warlock patron, Ghaunadaur. He lost his psionic powers in the process, became a weird zombified meat puppet, and now has to forever contend with the threat of getting taken off Spooky Life Support if he doesn't uphold his end of his warlock pact. So, needless to say, he's having a real chill time of it 👌
Oh, and he's got 20 CHA..... But don't be fooled. This man is a liar, a mansplainer, and a self-aggrandizing loser. Very much in his flop era. Easily the most insecure cringelord I've ever played. He is self-sabotage incarnate.
(OC slander is my love language, and I love this sad idiot more than anything)

Is Roach single.
Asking for a friend
I regret to inform you that he is not 😆😆😆
He's got a scary girlfriend named Josie. She's a former Pitt slave and is a real whiz with an auto-axe. Anyone who tries to move in on her man better be OK with losing a limb lmfao my condolences
Here's some old-ass art of her because why not:

(I desperately need to draw her and Roach together, there's a whole "me and the bad bitch I pulled by being awkward" vibe going on there)

roach and the bad bitch he pulled by being awkward 🙏🖤
INDEED! 😤 He's got that quiet weirdo rizz!! lol
I need to draw some art of them embodying these vibes, badly. Maybe once I've thinned out my commission queue a bit.
(But yes, they're very much an Opposites Attract type situation. Josie's loud, confrontational and extroverted, and Roach is a flighty introvert with a stutter. They balance each other out 💀)

Vrykoth! 16 , 18 and 19!
THREE questions?? Bless. Hope you're ready for this wall of text lmao
16. What are your character’s vices and bad habits?
Oh boy. Vrykoth is self-indulgent to a fault. He's drawn to novelty, has a low tolerance for boredom, and anything that feels good poses a temptation for him. Spending money, drinking, food, sex (in a universe where any woman would put up with him)... It's all fair game.
Overeating was the main culprit for a while. Vrykoth grew up in a Githyanki training compound where meals were rationed and the food was just... Not very pleasant. When he finally set foot in the outside world, he went overboard. Between being hype about food he'd never seen before and his sudden ability to just *buy* as much of whatever he wanted, he would eat enough to make himself sick.
Dying and coming back as a weird pseudo-zombie put a stop to that, for better or for worse. As a Reborn, Vrykoth no longer experiences hunger. Even if he tried to eat something just for the hell of it, his body would reject it. This realization screwed him up a little - despite not having an appetite, he's still upset about losing a simple joy he'd only just discovered.
For now, his other major vice is Buying Shit. True to form as a sheltered Githyanki homeschool kid, Vrykoth doesn't have the strongest understanding of money. He sure likes trading it for things, though. He also craves attention and loves feeling important - And wouldn't you know! Being a flamboyant spendthrift tends to deliver on those fronts.
The fact that he's an unrepentant bully and quickly discovered the joys of haggling has been his only saving grace in this department. Does he care about saving money? Fuck no! But the power trip from getting his way sure is nice.
18. Would society call your character a good guy or a bad guy? What would they say they are?
If we're going with how strangers view him, Vrykoth fits the Good Guy bill. Like a lot of adventurers, he's done a-million-and-one favors for people, including saving quite a few lives, so anyone aware of this would see him as a pretty standup dude.
That said..... Vrykoth isn't a Good Guy for the sake of being Good. He does it for admiration, back pats, and rewards. He likes getting what he wants, and it's far easier to do that when people see you as a hero. Anyone close to him would know this, since he's as blatantly selfish as they come - and while he's still got a conscience shoved deep down inside somewhere, it's not something he listens to by choice. It's more of an uncomfortable, knee-jerk icky feeling that he runs from when it gets too strong to ignore. It just so happens to (usually) send him careening head first into being a decent person.
As for how he sees himself... Most Githyanki are raised to be ruthless and cruel. By that metric, Vrykoth is a saint - but rather than feel proud of that, he quietly loathes himself for it. He's not evil enough to be the Githyanki he's supposed to be. On the flip side, he's not altruistic enough to measure up to his comparatively kind-hearted friends, either. That didn't bother him at first, but he's become increasingly desperate for their approval, so nothing he does feels quite right anymore.
19. What is your character insecure about?
Good lord. A better question might be the inverse, since insecurity is like 95% of Vrykoth's existence.
One of the only things he's NOT insecure about is his appearance. There's no point in fretting about how being undead changed him on the outside, since most people are unfamiliar enough with Githyanki to not know the difference. He does care about being put together - a lot, actually - but he's the type of guy to primp, give himself finger guns in the mirror, and call it a day.
As for virtually every other thing you could think of, Vrykoth is a fucking disaster. He failed a trial by combat and lost his chance to join his people in the astral plane, so he views himself as a purposeless good-for-nothing. He lost his ancestral knowledge and psionic powers after coming back to life, so by his own logic, he's not even a real Githyanki anymore.
And we can just keep going... He's not strong enough, not at all. He might boast to anyone who will listen about being a powerful spellcaster, but he doesn't feel proud of himself. Everything he's capable of is only possible because he gave up his freedom - something a Githyanki should never do - in exchange for powers that "don't even belong to him."
He doesn't even feel secure about his close relationships. Despite having the world's most bloated charisma stat, this man is petrified of being alone. He was already cast aside by his own people for not being good enough, so why wouldn't his current companions do the same? The way he sees it, only the strong and the useful deserve a place to belong, so Vrykoth is desperate to prove that he is both. All the time. To everyone. He'll brag, lie, and make every excuse for his failures, but it's not to avoid embarrasment. It's to avoid being abandoned all over again.
Tl;dr: get his ass a therapist 💀
