Character Meme (Tell Me About Yours!) by Shadderstag

Tell me a random fact about one (or more) of your OCs, and I will respond with a related fact about my own!

I love learning about people's OCs, and I love talking about my OCs, so really this is win/win for me.

And even if we already talk about your OCs all the time, tell me something I might not otherwise know about them!

    Pary is a lightweight and can't drink two drinks without falling over himself.

      About the only way Panzer takes the stick out of his ass is when he's two sheets to the wind. He tends to wake up the next morning with a stranger in his bed. He has extreme internalized homophobia (and misogyny but the homophobia is more rampant), so pray for his one night stand that they're of the cis female sort or they're likely to get thrown out on their ass.

    Brer Gator gives fantastic bear ( ? ) hugs. Just make sure not to wear anything you're terribly fond of - he lives in a swamp and dribbles blood pretty much constantly.

    • Link

      Stain gives pretty good facehugs... with his mouth. You're very unlikely to survive it though. He drools blood when hungry, excited, aroused.... so basically all the time. And it does /not/ come out of anything. There's a reason people call him Stain rofl

    Ian totally had a boy band phase. He definitely had a thing for Nick and Aaron Carter and he still kind of has a thing for Justin Timberlake. Not even Matt and Amy know about any of that.

    • Link

      Tommy listens to bands like Aqua and Ricky Martin because his mom bought him a "Best of 90s Pop" CD when he was a kid, and sometimes when he plays it while visiting her, she remembers that he's her son a little easier.

    Adeleh has a drug addiction stemming from trying to suppress his ability to "hear" data being relayed through computer systems
    this is something his employers struggle with him over since he's needed sober for his job but the stress of hearing too many voices could kill him

    • Link

      Harry has an addiction to a chemical solution that rids his body of radiation particles, as he tries to stave off turning into a ghoul, something he is very adamant is not happening to him. The hair loss is a side effect of the chemicals. The skin loss... well, he's always had sensitive skin, and the dry desert air sure as hell ain't helping, alright? He's not a goddamn zombie!

  • Link

    Um... idk random stuff:

    My dragon hybrid dude Eoghan, who has traveled the world and seen most of it's races though nagas were weird and unappealing until he met Akar, his travel companion and boyfriendo and he convinced him otherwise?

    My turian Lucisius looks like a big bad meany but he's a big goofball?

    My character Xattas was a Kingdom Hearts Nobody from Tron before I changed him to be an awkward butt AI that was the accountant for a mob boss.

    • Link

      Dick is an emerald tree monitor shapeshifter with extreme wanderlust. He's travelled the world over and has seen close to fifty different countries. Originally from Australia, he ended up getting a woman pregnant during a visit to the USA. He went back to her to help her raise their daughter and they ended up getting married. Despite the circumstances they are very much in love.

      My Druid character is a werewolf and his name is Mouse. He is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet but he does not hesitate when it comes to fighting the evil forces of the land.

      White started as a joke character. A black guy named Agent White haha how hilarious. Then the bastard developed a history and got himself a wife and a personality and he remains one of my favorite characters to date. His wife is pretty goddamn awesome too.

      • Link

        My character Xebrantes can easily outdrink most men without even so much as a buzz but lost a drinking contest to an already drunk pyrokinetic lady. He had only had a couple drinks.

        • Link

          Guido can't actually get drunk due to being a changeling, but he has an addiction to body mods. He changes his piercings constantly, and gets temporary ones all the time (corset piercings are his favorite).

  • Link

    I've got a lot of OC's, but I guess I'll stick with my main ones:

    Diablo can carry a grown man on his back in the air for short distances. He'll stoop every now and then much like a peregrine falcon to increase his speed, as well as to give himself small breaks while carrying a flying partner or other luggage.

    Sylvester can cook, but he can't bake to save his life. He once made a pie shell as thick as cement!

    Kikiwei can't swim under water. She hates the idea of being submerged under it.

    Carnalsnare is deathly afraid of vacuum cleaners. He's scared that he'll get caught in one and never be able to come out again.

    Emily the Selkie is always eager to share her food. She likes to make sure no one under her care goes hungry, even if it means stuffing them like Thanksgiving turkeys.

    • Link

      Jramit was born with a certain kind of dwarfism that meant her wings never developed properly, and are thus tiny. She's kind of overweight due to not being able to fly.

      Amam is a cannibal. He's less Hannibal and more... well, his tabloid name is The Devourer.

      Daniel (Pokemon OC) is terrified of the dark, yet owns no fire types. Perhaps somewhat ironically, the man he ends up with is a fire gym leader.

      Rielle is scared of anything smaller than himself, even if they're harmless. He doesn't know why, but the thought of it running up his leg might be part of it.

      Sherri is a wife first and a selkie second. She loves her husband and cooks the best meals. While she has no interest in children of their own, she allows her husband to run their house as a foster home, and she makes sure the troubled teens that come through are always well fed.

    -Jiri broke a rib when he was 26 and the left side of his torso is still a bit lumpy.

    -Paquin is very, very meticulous about cleaning his teeth. Dude will floss for the better part of an hour sometimes. (I totally encourage you to GIS crabeater seal skulls).

    -Marjorie has a long scar running down one forearm. She tells everyone it's from a fight with a raider... but it was actually a clumsy suicide attempt immediately following the apocalypse and her husband's death.

    -Portos enjoys classical music! Dragon songs are all a capella, so human musical instruments are like the coolest thing ever to him.

    -Vaughn has the neatest, most precise cursive handwriting you will ever see from an elementary-school kid. Good penmanship is important to him because he thinks it makes him appear more intelligent.

    • Link

      Creost can survive grievous injuries that would kill other species. So long as 50% of her brain remains, she can regrow the rest of her body.

      Amam takes good care of his teeth, yet his breath somehow still manages to smell like minty death. Being a cannibal certainly has its downsides. (Hah don't need to, I know exactly what they look like. Nature you drunk!)

      Setmi has countless scars, several of which are self inflicted. The worst being that he chewed off his own leg during a psychotic episode. He also has a terrible habit of tearing off his tail, since it grows back every time he shifts.

      Marcelo plays instrumental music while looking after the monsters in his charge. Two Steps From Hell is a unanimous favorite among them.

      Panzer has a genius intellect, helped along by his eidetic memory, but he is seen as stupid due to his Tourettes which give him a lot of physical tics such as shrugging his shoulders, clearing his throat, or kicking his legs. Oh yeah, and he blurts out some of the most random curse words in existence. Bitchtits, cockmunch, cuntface, etc. He has a lot of anger issues stemming from that.

  • Link

    Alex struggles with insecurities from being MtF.

    Jamie is loud, obnoxious, and loves to fight on occasion, but when alone she loves watching 90's kid shows.

    • Link

      Ashley struggled with whether or not he was MtF since he liked wearing feminine clothing, especially heels, skirts, and panties, but he made friends with Rebecca - a trans lady - at his school who helped him out, and he eventually decided he was a cishet guy who happened to like feminine clothing. He did end up dating Rebecca for a while though.

      Tommy pretends to be a tough guy (he's in a gang after all) but he's the sweetest kid you'll ever meet. Tommy isn't his real name, but seeing as how he's only in the gang for the money so he can look after his mom when he turns 18, he didn't want the gang to know so he could protect her. She has dementia. Unfortunately, as awesome as a weapon as the Tommy gun is, it doesn't make for a very threatening name.

  • Link

    Tape uses weird sounds to communicate more than he does with words.
    They tend to sound like various chirps, growls, screeching and purrs.
    When he gets excited, the black stuff in his belly moves around quicker.

    The Grudge is really creative and loves messing around with his planet and making new species but he doesn't like people knowing this. He also likes wearing cool industrial looking stuff.

    • Link

      Stain has two sets of vocal chords, which makes speaking with him somewhat of a headache. And his voice is very "wet" and "raspy". In fact, if you open this and this at the same time and listen through to the end of the first, and imagine those sounds forming words, you'd have what he sounds like. And when he's excited he drools black blood everywhere and generally just makes a mess.

      Roque claims to be a god, and manipulates the mortals he knows. He has completely ruined hundreds of lives for his own amusement and feels no remorse over it.

      • Link

        The species Tape is tends to use different voices depending on who they talk to (like if it's a friend or a stranger)
        He tends to either sound a lot like Til Lindemann or Hexxus.
        He likes to lick things and people and get them all slimy, his saliva is a lot like slug slime, and is a pain to try to wash off.

        Aw yeah, drooly things

        • Link

          Stain probably could speak with only one set of vocal chords if he tried, but he can understand himself just fine, and those around him just end up as meals anyways, so why bother with communication?
          Gross fact: Stain has a prehensile tongue in his front entrance and he will store food inside it for later consumption. Dicks are an acceptable substitute sometimes (or anything that penetrates really). His front hole also drools black blood everywhere when he's excited.
          You do not want him in your house or in a public area ever. The black stains everything, hence his most common name.

          • Link

            Tape's tongue is about as long as he is tall (14 feet), it's also prehensile and a proboscis. If he tried to drink anything other than a really small amount of liquid with his mouth, he'd end up drooling it everywhere.

            His blood is black and reflects no light, when he bleeds, it turns into these beings called skyggers that are eternally hungry. He's also eternally hungry because of his blood.

            • Link

              Stain lacks any cheeks to speak of. Strips of flesh the go from his cheekbones to the front of his face can peel back and are maneuverable, the teeth on them giving him a strange "antlered" appearance, which is one of the reasons people call him a wendigo.

              The other being because of his insatiable hunger, whether that be for flesh, blood, or sex. He is somewhat of a pain slut, since serious enough trauma to his body can distract from the never ending hunger. It's a good thing he's immortal, else the disembowelments, dismemberments, and other major trauma he's been put through would certainly have been fatal. He eventually heals, and depending on the severity of the injuries depends on how bad of a rampage he goes on afterward to replenish his energy reserves.

              • Link

                Tape tends to keep a ton of food in his stomach, but he never actually feels full and tends to overeat and end up not being able to move. His kind has a lot of nerve endings in their stomachs, so having a full belly is an amazing feeling to them. One way to not get eaten by him is to give him lots of belly rubs.

                He can't heal really quickly or from really major wounds unless he's on his own planet, except his belly can heal faster than the rest o him because that's where his source of power is. He likes certain kinds of pain, like his skin coming off or places like his neck getting impaled.

                • Link

                  Stain's metabolism is so high that he ranges from thin to emaciated, depending how often he's eaten in the past few days.

                  He really likes suspension hooks, and finds the sensation of hanging relaxing.

                  • Link

                    Tape's shoulder stripes are actually scarification. They should be a faint green, but because of the nature of his blood, they remain black.

                    • Link

                      The rods on Stain's back are cartilaginous and fairly flexible. He can't move them voluntarily, but the bioluminescent glow on the ends is one of the ways he attracts curious human prey, sort of like a will-o-wisp

                      • Link

                        Tape's belly sometimes helps him catch humans that are on something. He tends to go out at night because the sun is too much for him and o course his belly does the opposite of helping him hide.
                        He doesn't need to go out every night because of his hoard of corpses and sometimes he doesn't need to go far because of people trying to get into the place he lives.

                        • Link

                          Stain lives in the cold winter North of Canada, because he "sees" with thermal pits, and against the snow prey is lit up like Christmas. He once ran into what was essentially a living black hole monster, and the only reason he could see them is because they were just a void of nothing. No temperature of any sort.

                          • Link

                            Tape's sight is pretty bad. He has bioluminescent bacteria in his eyeballs that keep his pupils constricted. In the dark, a glare of green light takes up most of his vision, he relies more on his hearing to get around and catch prey.
                            The light from the sun hurts his eyes, it's too bright for him.

                            • Link

                              He'll lure people to him using the bioluminescence on the cartilaginous rods on his back, and then flash the spots inside his flexible "mandibles" to startle them long enough for him to deliver a killing blow.

                              Perhaps ironically, his saliva is a coagulant and encourages new cell growth, given enough time.

                              • Link

                                He uses both his claws and teeth to kill. When he uses his teeth, he disembowels. When he uses his claws, he stabs them, he can't scratch things with them, they're for digging through dirt and flesh.

                                • Link

                                  Stain has four sets of teeth. The first are the ones in his fleshy "mandibles", which he tends to use to stab when biting. The second set are along his top jaw, and thin and needle-like, and usually lay flat against the roof of his mouth. When biting, they spring forward and hook into the flesh of his prey. The third set are on his bottom jaw in the normal place. And the fourth set are inside his mouth, and are a secondary row of teeth in his lower jaw, around the hole his tongue comes out of.

                                  • Link

                                    His esophagus doesn't start at the back of his mouth, that's where his tongue comes out. His esophagus goes from the bottom of his mouth, the pouch on his neck might be considered part of his mouth and there are several teeth in it. Anything he swallows gets torn apart from these and he never chews. There's a smaller area he can hold things in.
                                    When he's frightened, threatened or surprised, or just when he's trying to look more threatening, he'll puff his neck up.

    Domino is left handed. :) He can move and use all hands individually, but favors the upper left. It annoys him when writing! (Ink smudges, you know.)

    • Link

      Bakhiel is often asked if he ever misses his left arm, but he is adamant he was born without it. Besides, he has three hands and two prehensile hemipenes that he can use to manipulate things with, while humans only have two hands. Who's the one with the handicap here, I mean /really/?

  • Link

    A little late to the game, but whatever.

    Hunter loves spaghetti even though it's really hard to eat with a raptor beak.

    Señor Lobo is adamant that he is not a hipster, he just really likes slouchy hats and quirky music, but he gets pegged as a hipster all the time. He totally is one. Don't even judge.

    Jasper is a fox who wants to be a dolphin, a furry furry so to speak. He wears skintight clothing to feel sleeker and more streamlined.

    • Link

      Creost has zero guilt in eating her own young. When out in space sometimes it's more productive to lay eggs in a host body and let them hatch into hundreds of potential meals than to eat the host outright.

      Bakhiel is a fallen angel whose favorite game happens to be Pokemon. His favorite Teams are troll teams, and he especially adores Sableye. A lot of people find it either highly disturbing or highly amusing that a former angel of God would be so obsessed with a mortal's children's game.

      Mia is the daughter of Dick and Sirena, who are both shapeshifters. She is human. She has a lot of resentment towards her parents for not passing on the proper genes. Later in life she purposely seeks out one of the contagious kinds of shapeshifters and nearly dies for her attempts.
