Description

Why No Finish?

So this was a fun project that I wanted to do and actually finish before the end of December and welcome the new year with, but I stagnated and procrastinated, you won’t see this finished and you likely won’t see anything like it for a long while. I do have lots of Characters in my catalog but the resolve to do and actually finish this project died the moment I took more than 4 days of taking my focus off of this project to focus on practically everything else. Even if I would want to finish it, December is practically a week ago as of editing this so I am too lat to make up any late entries, enjoy the characters that actually have their debuts featured here, goodness knows if any for my other characters get featured the same way. Guess I over estimated my own skills and bit off more that could be chewed -.-


So, What Dis?

Hemlo! And welcome to my self-given art challenge for December, where I provide a character from my catalog each day until the end of the month. It will be tedious and hard to maintain but I will get through this, and provide you characters my noggin just so happens to come up with for the winter season. Characters will not be from TDR, my series I am running here, but rather from my sketchbook and those old graded school paper doodles I still have till this day. I will provide a character bio for each of them here, and if possible, a character sheet linked to it. The sample character is provided on the top-left, and includes small details on my Character Advent Calendar. Follow if you’re interested, as this gets updated daily, starting on the first of December.
Entries:

Day 0: [Sample Character] Jane “Unknown” Doe
Inspiration(s): Your Text Here
Theme(s): Placeholder, but personified, unironically ruining the point of an unidentifiable person

Description: “Through the sights of the naked eye, you see nothing but a silhouette, beneath the absence of identity lies an entity with no defining mark or trait. It is clear, no one knows the person, or what they do, all that is known is that there is not much to know.”

  • Used as a filler character for example templates or placeholding certain spots or character pictures
  • “It looks like a cringy murder drones OC” -Captain_Nova16 (My friend)
  • Character portrays feminine traits because the original iteration presented the character as such
Day 1: Harrison Loreman Sanders
Inspiration(s): Jeffery Bilsky (Henry Danger), Tommy Gracefuls (Amateur Surgeon), Glass Joe (Punch-out)
Theme(s): Plays on the trope of the rich man to rags, and the common moronic goon character archetype, but clumsier and more self conscious
Description: “A down on his luck wastrel that scours the outskirts and on occasion, the metropolitan areas of cities and towns just scrounging around for stuff to steal or scalp. Having his origins in a now fallen and defunct aristocratic house, all that he has left to hold on to and retain his sense of determination to keep going was the Inexpensive Sapphire Quill he still has till this day. He never takes it off his person, and he most especially never puts it up for auction unlike the things he stole from easy prey.”
  • He was the first “Enemy” Character conceptualized that had a personal identity and not a generically vague one like most “Non-specific” characters.
  • He gets REALLY upset if you try to take or mess with his Quill, but usually, he is often a bit cowardly by nature and is a known flaker if certain theft encounters would be too difficult for him, which is why some theft cartels and robbery gangs almost never accept him unless it is for distraction reasons, of which he is very good at due to his running speed.
  • He is often a “punching-bag” character most of the time, he is also a terrible thief and is very bad at combat, especially at close quarters. But despite a lot of it, he really just proceeds forward and stays determined as long as he still has his quill.

Day 2: Clarissa Anderson Nephtur
Inspiration(s): Mary (Goddess of Victory NIKKE), Terraria Nurse (Terraria), Hilary (Regular Show), Ophelia Payne (Amateur Surgeon), Liane Cartman (Southpark)
Theme(s): A loving and caring mother that isn’t a “Strong Woman” but is a strong woman that truly wants to understand and ensure the safety of her children.

Description: “ A widowed nurse from the St. Corithialias Hospital and Nursery Clinic that excels in various aspects and fields of medicine, often partaking or otherwise, supervising certain branches of the hospital she works at. She is a mother of four kids, of whom, one is adopted and is the eldest child. She cares deeply for each and every one of them both due to her motherly instincts and her past loss of her husband, of whom she promised to look after the kids they raised. In addition, she has regrets of overlooking neglect of the middle child she was unable to raise properly due to her inability to balance stress, motherhood, and occupations alike, now she promises to keep getting involved in the kids she still has to take care of, overbearing or not.”

  • Her children consists of two young daughters, Courtney and Natalie, and two older sons, the adopted child named Timothy, and the neglected child, Xerxes , the same person featured in my Damselfly Series.
  • She is known to be very kind and patient, with several accounts about her being a very welcoming and caring individual. However, when a situation comes to involving her children or her methods of parenting, she can be quite easy to upset and will throw outbursts regardless if the statement is meant to be complimentary or insulting.
  • She has the body of the average anime MILF, she does get peeping Toms gazing her from time to time but she doesn’t mind it, unless she would be caressed. She is also capable of defending herself and can throw hands if needed. She also doesn’t like to get remarried, something about staying true to the man she loved.

Day 3: Ashley Carnis Arc
Inspiration(s): Ghouls{General} (Tokyo Ghoul), Licorice (Food Item), Leeches (Parasites), Sissy (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Game), Dixie (Fallout 4: Nuka World DLC)
Theme(s): Cannibal, Candy Treat Girl, Southern American Leaning, cuz why not? -.-
Description: “ A mischievous and decisive woman belonging to a troupe of anthropophagites that carry the theme of sweets and candy with them. For her in particular, she has been themed around licorice and presents herself as the most energetic and eccentric out of the entire group. Often when she is not hunting for her next meal, she acts like a quirky lady with a slight southern-American accent to her speech, once you get to know her, you won’t even remember she actively eats human flesh for a living. The leech tentacles she is most often accompanied by is attached to her back and is most often obscured by her long, scarlet-red hair. She is a bit of a messy eater and really does not like to have pictures taken of her while she dines. It is for a known fact that she is able to leech and suck blood if she wishes to be discrete and quiet when feeding, either in public, or in special circumstances by using her tentacles. Also, unlike the other candy girls, she doesn’t like to eat animals as substitute meals for human flesh.”

  • Her leech tentacles are observed to have minds of their own, but it is mostly Ashley herself who controls it the most, this allows her to hide them inside her hair without the need to forcibly obscure them.
  • She is a “Candy Girl” a subspecies of humans that embodying the prospects of cannibalism that entirely consists of female characters. It is rare for an ordinary human female to convert into a Candy Girl, but it is an even rarer experience to even find one, as they are really good at hiding and possess weird but useful powers to either hide their identities or boost their hunting skills
  • She has a slight southern-American accent and is very charismatic with her wordings, it is occasionally helped by the fact that she often wears skimpy and revealing clothing to further persuade others to either believe her or follow her to a trap.

Day 4: Lakshmi Lilligathe Lordenson
Inspiration(s): Pretty Morden (Metal Slug Attack), Lead (Periodic Element of Nature), Hilde Schmittendorf (Dead Rising 3), Irene Engel (Wolfenstein: The New Order)
Theme(s): Make an over pretentious child in the role in a very powerful leadership position
Description: “Though an immature and juvenile delinquent, Lakshmi was provided the position of general to the Dominion’s High-Grade Military forces. She most often adores being accompanied into the forefront of conflicts, even if it puts her own life at stake, this, along with her innocent and petite looks has garnered her praise and respect from her common rank and file soldiers that serve under her. Her protection is mostly ensured by her head bodyguard and chaperone in everywhere she goes beside the restroom, Terrace Tidger. She often is jovial and leans more to her immature side outside of war scenarios and can switch easily to a more serious and very unwelcoming attitude when confronted with conflict involving warfare, even if it by speech alone. She is the last surviving member of her family after a terrorist attack that had deprived her of her left eye, but after working hard to re-inherit the position of general, her father’s former occupation prior to retirement and assassination, she intends to become as successful, if not better than what her predecessor could’ve been.”

  • She is part of the Periodic Dominion, As such she is based around an element of the periodic table, if the name isn’t obvious, her main element is Lead. For now though, she acts exactly as her description says. In addition to adding more behaviors from her character inspirations, I will also incorporate personified characteristics of the element of lead to her character as well.
  • Her original name was “Sirota Morden” but this leaned too heavily on one of the inspirations, and it didn’t fit with her occupation of being the Dominion’s General, when their whole character scheme is having all character belonging to said group being based off of elements of the periodic table. So it was subject to change.
  • She was the only survivor of a tragic terrorist attack that has left her family dead with her losing her left eye in the process. It was only through Terrance’s interception of a, now unidentifiable assailant as his face was pummeled beyond Recognition, did she make a successful recovery and lived another day.

Day 5: Terrance Tallirian Tidger 
Inspiration(s): Tim Lockwood (Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs), Duckworth (Ducktales), Allen O’ Neil (Metal Slug), Alexei Stukov (StarCraft), Gorlin (Nerthoyverse [Character can be seen in the gallery] ), Placid I.T. (Miraculous Ladybug), Tin (Periodic Element of Nature)
Theme(s): Create an overly stoic and menacing guardian for the child-general to balance out the immature energy.
Description: “Terrance is Lakshmi’s most reliable and most loyal bodyguard, accompanying her wherever she goes and protecting her from all possible dangers that could harm her. He is her surrogate father figure that, in addition to safeguarding her from hazards, teaches her the know and how for many things like using guns, commanding logistics, and teaching her various independent skills when he would otherwise not be around to be there for her. He was the former right-hand man of Lakshmi’s late father, of whom was best friends with, and later took care of the surviving daughter after a terrible terrorist attack killed both him and his spouse. He rarely drinks and wishes to keep Lakshmi out of any destructive influences, and tries to be a good example for her. In other cases where he is not actively defending or protecting her, he would often take the role of her caretaker, but will not do it so often as to try to encourage her to be more independent. He doesn’t talk much and carries a serious demeanor wherever he goes, and his aura of stoicism is very much noticeable. The only times where he breaks out of this usual mood is when Lakshmi is in peril or whenever something somehow makes him laugh, where he would create a loud grunting noise before laughing uproariously in a deep, Russian-like voice.”

  • Before being Lakshmi’s chaperone, he was formerly her father’s right-hand man and vice-general during her father’s days as the Dominion’s Head General. As such, he felt it was right to raise the child as his now deceased long-time friend wanted to. H the only person he would talk his past about to would be Lakshmi, but even then, she barely remembers everything he said, but she does try to listen to everything.
  • Lakshmi’s main nickname for him, “Henchrance” is a nickname that he can only tolerate if it came from her, if it came from someone else, they’d be pummeled to a pulp. He does not like to get involved in any affairs unless specifically told to by Lakshmi.He also generally keeps creeps and weirdos from even getting an inch close to her, both due to his intimidating aura and his ruthlessly aggressive nature if provoked.
  • Being part of the Periodic Dominion, he is also based off of a periodic element in the periodic table, that being Tin. Like Lakshmi, more time will be used to flesh out Terrance’s personality using personified attributes of the metal, Tin.

Day 6: Cotter Kookie Octavillion 
Inspiration(s): Demencia (Villainous), Chef Fujimoto (Octodad: Dadliest Catch), Chef Skinner (Ratatouille), Warly (Don’t Starve Together)
Theme(s): “Cookie Cutter” Villain Archetype, Mad Chef, Tempered Timebomb of Emotion
Description: “A steamed baker originating from upper northern districts of the continent, Cotter, despite coming from a place with mild tones and soft voices, acts with large temper is quite loud even with his inside voice. He has a strong affinity for baking and cooking alike, but prefers the former due to him preferring desserts and treats over standard meals and broad foods. He has a bit of a sweet tooth, but he doesn’t like to eat “raw” candy, meaning he wants it either baked into treats or refined as ingredients for desserts he himself made. He only eats candy straight from the wrapper if he is desperate for sweets, and he does not like to taste the same dessert back to back. In addition to baking, he is also excels in sniping and long-distance marksmanship, both skills were taught to him by his mother, Ciciliana Octavillion. If he isn’t baking or trying to snipe something, he tries to be funny by being spontaneous and sporadic with his attitude and tries to get attention from others, but this behavior could mostly be chalked up to him eating too much sugary foods. He can on occasion go on a sugar coma, but he recovers quickly to exert and release all the pent up energy provided by the food he makes for himself.

  • He has a very large dedication to being a villain, often is the reason for him joining the ragtag scheming individual he associates with today, he also often cooks for team, but they rarely eat the desserts he makes, forcing him to try standardized cooking to make the team’s food.
  • He has a total of 4 sisters with him being the middle child, so he has 2 older sisters and 2 younger sisters. At a time, his mother mistakenly thought he would be a girl when he entered the world, as such he originally had a girl’s name for a early part of his life before he was legally able to change it.
  • He has an adamant fear of Candy Girls, and girls in general, he never wants to be near one and is always afraid they’d eat him. To counteract this fear, he often covers himself in smoldering unbaked cookie dough, though it burns his skin, it is effective in keeping away girls from getting near him, of which he admires.

Day 7: Poli “Errorz” Primera
Inspiration(s): Shifty (Goddess of Victory: NIKKE), Sanic (Joke Character, OG Gmod Nextbot), Windows XP Error Message (Windows XP), Adjutant (StarCraft 1 and 2) Surge Protector (Wreck-It-Ralph)
Theme(s): Joke Character, Agency Adjutant, “Error: Msg notz Alowdz” 
Description: “Teh Amasin’ Adutnaut Poli Primera iz teh bestes anz tuh moss uzefulz parshon onz the Greatess Gruup toz evur exizst. Mae Maenz Jobb iz tu guidz teh agunts tu saffteh ann to azistt in missions were a birb’s eey veew andz to pruvides recconassance to feeld agentz. NU MOAR TAAKZ, MAI JOBB IZ A SEKRET, ZOU U NO GETZ ANY MOAR INFARMASHION.

  • She is one of the most used and most active adjutant in the R.I.A. assisting in a wide array of useful capabilities from the safe comforts of the Foundation’s walls. However, her communication skills when it comes to translating texts often is lacking and as such, can only do her work through verbal communications.
  • She is a bit of an anomaly in the Agency, both due to her special interactions with electronic devices and her advance knowledge of the insides and outs of coding systems. She also has the power to leap into screens and monitors and travel to other places using them so long as the devices are turned on. She can also chose to stay in these digital pocket dimensions within the monitors if she so wishes to, allowing her to cherry-pick information stored, or just mess around with the owner’s devices. It is noted however, that in many cases, whenever she enters or exits a device, said device will be bricked the moment it is used, with all parts within it being unable to be used for parts.
  • She likes watching cartoons where there is a major issue with the signal, making the shows that are displayed within it to be distorted and covered in miscolored pixels and the audio being choppy and skippy. She also can’t go through these from observations, either due to her inability to go through meshed and discolored screens, or out of general desire not to do so. 

Day 8: Holly Neighman Veridian
Inspiration(s): Snow Golem (Minecraft), Donald Duck (Ducktales 2017), Ludmilla (Goddess of Victory: NIKKE), Benson (Regular Show)
Theme(s): A snow-woman that leads a tundra-exploration squad with a slightly overprotective nature and a knack for staying hidden and taking advantage of her skill of eavesdropping.
Description: “A snowgal originating from the upper echelons of the cold north, Holly is presented as a living snow-woman with a hard strive to lead and a heavy rule stickler of protocols. She is often most known for her ability to blend into the surrounding tundra and snowy landscape with ease and is most often the best equipped for conducting silent surveillance operations or private stakeout sessions. She does her role so well that she was provided the mantle of squad commander, that being, she leads a group of no more than three individuals excluding herself that are provided not by her choosing, but by other affiliates of the Faction. She has responsibilities outside of work that often bleeds into her work ethic and often causes her to have unexpected behaviors in sacrifice for handling both overwhelment and stress. She is also known to scuttlebutt and eavesdrop on conversations that often do not concern her and most is just her way of getting to know someone without the anxiety of meeting them up close.”

  • Holly has three younger nephews she watches over, luckily, unlike her, they are nocturnal creatures and only are awake at the time her shift is over. Their names are: Henri, Claude, and Lucien. Each of them annoy and comfort Holly in different and unique ways.
  • She has in her possession, a carved pumpkin with a hollowed-out inside that could be used as fashionable headgear. She barely wears it, with exceptions being during Halloween or during times where she does not wish to have her face damaged, which is a rare occurrence. She also does not like wearing it too much on the basis that it feels very claustrophobic inside and that it wrinkles her top hat if she puts it on.
  • She often wants to use technology like monitors and phones, but her body won’t allow them to work under her care due to her unique body properties. One most notable feature is her hands, when using a device, she would often move her hand so much that it begins to melt, resulting in the device being soaked or damaged, likewise, she would also have trouble if she used her stick-hands, most often or not, the device wouldn’t recognize the movement, or the button would break because Holly is unable to control its strength.

Day 9: Cassiopeia Uriaia Snowdrop

Inspiration(s): Yuki (Evertale), Deacon (Fallout 4), Elsa of Arendelle (Frozen), Miss Pauling (Team Fortress 2)
Theme(s): A Stand-out Frostnomancer of the Associates of The Frostlit Atlas Faction with a shadowy history and a well-mannered demeanor.
Description: “Cassie is a well-recognized member of her affiliated faction, but not necessarily for the right reasons. She often has this mysterious and opaque history that she never really tells anyone and keeps to herself. Like Holly, she also takes the role of surveying and exploring the tundra landscapes, while this is also part of her daily routine, her main job is serving the every command of Leader of the faction she works for. It is a common rumor that in exchange for her loyalty, the Leader of the A.F.A. taught her some magical abilities that matched that of the Frostnomancers recruited into the faction, only with much more knowledge than they ever known. She maintains a collective and well-mannered demeanor when within the sights of the A.F.A. Leader or any other high-ranking official, but will shed and lose this mentality for a more laid-back and complacent attitude.”

  • She is the only known “Frostnomancer” to ever recieve private tutoring or training from the Leader of A.F.A. herself. Due to this she has gotten both envious looks and scoffing responses from her now “Rivals”.
  • Though she has gained advanced training in the ways of Frostnomancy, she had to give up various freedoms to fulfill the debt she made. This debt gets fulfilled when she fulfills the various tasks of the Faction leader, the person that gave and taught her those powers. She does many dangerous things like retrieving stolen artifacts, fighting deadly creatures, and infiltrating enemy hideouts to more lax and normal things like being the secretary or running basic errands for the A.F.A. Leader.
  • She has a very soft and delicate voice that allows her to sing hollow tunes that are capable of making loud noises without instigating vibration or cause some sore of disturbance that could cause an avalanche. She doesn’t really like singing, but if she were to pursue a career in it, she would at least be in the top 100 most popular rankings.


Day 10: Mirai Jaelyn Ul

Inspiration(s):Yeti (Monstergirl Encyclopedia), Butters (South Park), Lambie (Doc McStuffins) Free Hugs (Dead Ahead:Zombie Warfare), Sherpas (Real-Life Elite and Nomadic Mountaineers)
Theme(s): An innocent, yet divisive and adventurous woman who only wishes to save people.
Description: “The lovable and kind Mirai often is the glue to keeping many isolated squads and lost scouts from deflecting or freezing to their deaths up in the could north where A.F.A. mostly performs their operations in. Once living an isolated and calm life up in the mountain ranges of Buzan and Pyrrhick, she grew a taste for meeting new and discovering exotic things. Her past of scaling mountain ranges and hiking vast distances has made her exceptional at her role of surveying and navigating the cold tundras of the northern territories and districts of Compendia. She also has great skill in finding things, most especially people, it is because of this that she is part of the Seeker Team, a reconnaissance group more focused for rescuing lost squadrons and locating missing personnel. As of now, this squad has no more than 3 individuals, Mirai included. She often carries this kind and friendly aura to her wherever she goes and lightens the mood of most people near her. She likes to provide people her hugs if possible, mostly to help people keep their warmth in this cold climate. In addition to her mountaineer and hiking experiences, she also is an adept at first aid, although not as impressive as the former, she does indeed know more than the basics and can treat a lot of minor wounds as well as a few major ones. She is also known to be able to carry several times her body weight, she often gets joked by some members of A.F.A. for this by comparing her to an ant, but these comments honestly don’t affect her.

  • Her cyan flak-trunk jacket she often wears doesn’t really insulate heat at all, it mostly is just worn for etiquette purposes and dress codes for the faction she is affiliated with. Though it sometimes makes her hugs very uncomfortable, she will at times, loosen her jacket and nudge it to her sides to counteract the discomfort the jacket makes when she hugs others. She likes the feeling of providing hugs so much she unironically has two papers taped to her torso, on on her back that says “Hug Me”, and one on her chest that says “Warm Hugs!”.
  • She has a horrible tolerance to any other climate that is not frigid enough or fails to reach a cold temperature threshold. This often results in her getting rashes and being  in mild stress that will make her act like an entirely different person, as she will refrain from providing hugs, act violently when normally she is very patient and polite, and rush things whenever possible in contrast to her normally taking her time and putting all her effort in doing her tasks. She knows of this sudden change in behavior and immediately tries to counteract this by wearing a comically oversized block of ice on her head to keep cool, if it works, it works.
  • It is rumored she has an internet persona where she acts very unfriendly and takes hotshots in saying very inappropriate things that would not be expected of her. She is a gamer after all.

Day 11: Wally Jameson Heffords
Inspiration(s): None
Theme(s): Drunken Cowboy, yeehah Texas
Description: “Old Character, Redesigned to fit another story rather than the original one he would be featured in”

Day 12-31: EMPTY (Event Discontinued, Resolve To Finish Had Perished)
Entries Remain Empty with That ONE unfinished character image still in place, all that remains is the backgrounds that are re-edited with filters with color saturations and color burns. Sorry to Disappoint

But it will be finished. Support is greatly appreciated, and yeah, thanks for tuning in, even if it would be for only an entry or two.
