Description



Flat Colors/Alternate Versions: sta.sh/2207nhpdad7x
Additional Writing/Cameo Notes: Ask me please if you need them!



EDIT: GOD HIS OLD APP WAS SO OUTDATED AHHHH
So here’s a completely new one. 


EDIT 2: Redid his app again! Added a few things in his description but it overall was left untouched (may mess with it again later)



Name: Swattson Needlenose, goes by Swatt while off-duty
Gender: Male
Height: 6’6 at normal posture, head to toe. Around 7 feet if he stretched all the way out.
Birthday: July 20th
Species: Common House Mosquito
Catchphrase: “kid”
Quote: “Hey there, buddy! Can I interest YOU in some vacuums this fine evening?”
Quote 2: “More to us than meets the eye, kid. Too bad most people can’t see past that.”

Character Type(s): Smug
Personality:

Your typical door-to-door salesman. Peppy, cheery, super suave yet somehow painfully dense, he’s quite pesky to deal with, and would go to any lengths to get to you and your wallet. At times, he’s incredibly cunning, at other times, he’s stealing a bunch of items from a free donation box out in the public while everyone’s watching out of raw desperation.

Off duty, however, he’s a completely different person. Despite still being cunning and suave, he’s cold, sarcastic, careless, and deceitful. Good versus evil, chaos versus order, they mean absolutely nothing to him. He does what he feels like when he feels like it. He’s numb to how the world is and how others commonly treat him, being one of the most hated animals and all. He has a tough skin to most insults, and a usually calm demeanor. He tends to make fun of himself or others way too much.

At times, he can show acts of kindness, especially to those who are younger or blind to the way he sees life, but it’s somewhat rare, as he feels he needs to stay professional in public at all times.


Likes:
- Money
- Stupid people (they’re easy to take advantage of)
- Kids
- Jokes (Usually at someone else’s expense. Usually his.)
- Shiny things
- The taste of blood
- Messing with people
- His fashion sense
- His height

Now things he likes but he wouldn’t admit in a thousand years because apparently he has a lot of those:
- Anime/manga
- Strawberry lemonade
- People who legitimately care for him


Dislikes:
- People talking about how delicious insects are
- Animals that typically eat insects (especially frogs, he has a deathly fear of them)
- People more extreme than he is
- Those obsessed with evil or good
- Disappointing others
- Fly swatters, zappers, etc.
- Coffee
- People being taller than him
- Other bloodsuckers


History:

He showed one day in Lilypad, and has been scamming people ever since. Similar looking people under similar sounding names cropped up before in the past, scamming people in many different ways across many different towns. There’s an obvious connection here.

But why? What does this guy want with all this cash? Why doesn’t he just get an actual job?

Rumors say he’s in massive debt, but it hasn’t been confirmed or denied. Another rumor states that he’s working for someone. Just a pawn to a bigger threat... But like most information, it’s not exactly known what’s true or false.

He keeps way too many secrets.

Other:

Design Notes:
- Most of his head and thorax are covered in a type of light brown fur(?). His proboscis and abdomen have a fine layer of fuzz covering it, while his other limbs are smooth, hard, yet flexible.
- His legs and arms are the same length.
- His mandibles can jet out of his mouth completely, and his proboscis can split into the 6 needles that make it up. He doesn’t do it much. Unless he wants to scare someone into buying something or something.
- His eyes are weird but cool. He can see things behind him. It’s neat. He’s neat. I love him. But I doubt he loves me. Such is the life of a character creator.
- Gradients and such are optional.
- Please don’t be afraid to put your own spin on his design!

Behavior Notes:
- He’s a really good actor, but tends to be too overdramatic.
- He’s a closet otaku. He owns all the merchandise. The only thing he has out is like a single poster on his wall though.
- He’s way too expressive for his own good.
- His current disposition can change at the drop of a hat.
- He’s incredibly clingy around certain people, surprisingly. Or not surprisingly.
- He gets really freaking drunk if he drinks too much blood. How much is too much? I dunno.
- He makes weird buzzing noises sometimes. 

Other Notes:
- Anything a mosquito can do, he can do.
- He lives in a huge victorian-styled mansion, after making a snarky comment to Ridney when he asked what kind of house he wanted. 
- He’s around 28 years old.
- He sometimes sounds like a kazoo. This could hint at possible kazoo ancestry.
- He has an internal radar that can sense body heat and breathing around a hundred feet or so around him. If you’re closer, he can tell your blood type. But he doesn’t care enough to tell anyone and he doesn’t think it’s anything out of the ordinary, so uh... yea. It’s a thing though.
- He knows how to play guitar and drums.
- He also knows how to speak Spanish.
- With these combined skills, he can sing Despacito, making him the most powerful CC character.
- He’s allergic to garlic like the vampire man he is, and has a intense repulsion to lavender, lemon, and some other floral scents.
- He’s attracted to flypaper.
- He is transgender and homosexual.

The name. The name is what's selling me on this guy. Pun COMPLETELY intended.

He's after my money? Look, everyone despises these vampire bugs, but I MIGHT just give this guy a pass.

Emphasis on the bold, italic, underlined, MIGHT.

Trust me, giving him a pass could be your greatest mistake. Or it could lead to a good thing... a guy like him wouldn’t be a bad person to befriend.

Keep away from my blood and he'll be alright.

Otherwise, I'll swat him from the sky. XD

( Sometime during the day, a tall peryton flew towards the house, and waited at the doorstep, when the door opened...)
  Pearl Sky: ...
Pearl Sky: Greetings, neighbor.  

(Unfortunately for Swatt here, Sky lives near the entrance of the Hollow Forest.)

Swatt scanned the figure standing outside of his mansion. He's never seen anything like them before.
Mixed appearance, no shadow... She must've been a raider, he assumed. I guess raiders were kind of his neighbors. Weird fashion sense too... 


Swatt: "If you're here to tell me that not all raiders are bad, already got the memo."


: "Friends with a raider who cares more about her DeviantArt followers than pillaging villages or burning kids or whatever those old legends say they do.'

(Sky didn't honestly understand why the first thing the mosquito thought was that she was here to state that not all raiders were bad, but she appreciated it.)
Pearl Sky: That is good. However, it is not why I am here. I am simply here to meet my neighbors.
(Sky noticed something out of the corner of her eye.
Pearl Sky: Excuse me. Is there someone in your trash?

Palkachu In reply to EnigmaticEevee12 [2019-11-13 03:56:27 +0000 UTC]

The sound of rustling garbage filled the air...


 Swatt: "Er... yeah. All the time. Just ignore it, kay? Guess that's one of the neighbors too. His name's Yin. Think he was abandoned as a child or something. Usually comes over to take what he wants. Don't bother stopping him anymore unless there's a fight with a raccoon or something."

 : "So all you wanted to say was 'hi'? And point out there's a feral human in my trash?"

EnigmaticEevee12 In reply to Palkachu [2019-11-13 06:38:51 +0000 UTC]

(Sky immediately shook her head, she was here for other reasons too. She slowly took a large book from her satchel titled "Laws of Lilypad", and showed it to the mosquito.)
Pearl Sky: I am not here for just that. Do you know what these are?

 (Sky is just asking for help with what is illegal, Swatt will probably misinterpret this big time.)

Palkachu In reply to EnigmaticEevee12 [2019-11-18 00:13:45 +0000 UTC]

He glanced at the book the peryton held. He started to internally panic, but he managed to keep his cool on the outside, at least. He knew, whatever was going to happen, that this shadowless hybrid wouldn't take him down. 

 Swatt: "H-Hey. What's up with the lawbook?"

 : "Some weird hobby or something? Knocking on someone's door and pulling out a book like that can cause panic, y'know... people out here are the paranoid type." 


He had no idea where she was going with this.

(Now, Sky realized that she was making the mosquito uncomfortable, so she decided that she would get straight to the point.)
 Pearl Sky: ...
 Pearl Sky: Apologies for startling you. You see, I am an ambassador from a land much farther than here. So, I was wondering if you know anyone with an adequate knowledge of the laws here.

(She hoped she calmed his nerves a bit.)

A tall slinky ferret can be seen posting up papers on random people and places. She slaps a piece of paper on a tree and wanders off, letting herself hum. 

 Kaylee: Man i really hope I can find this mosquito villager... I've never seen one up close. Most of them run away from me when they see me. 

She frowns a bit.

 Kaylee: I can never figure out why.

The piece of paper has the symbol of bells on it.

In the middle of the night, a figure approaches the door of Swatt's home. The ears reveal that she is definitely a bunny, a rather happy one at that. She leaves a basket with a pie inside at the doorstep.

???: "I sure hope this is the right address...."

She then hopped off back into the night......

PaganCrusade [2019-02-24 10:07:53 +0000 UTC]

Male mosquitoes actually can't consume blood. Metalloproteins in the blood are used by females as fertiliser for offspring. Since males can't get pregnant, they never developed the capacity to consume blood. They instead use their proboscises to drink plant nectar and fruit juices.

Regardless, good job on the design of this character.

Palkachu In reply to PaganCrusade [2019-02-25 00:10:54 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I am aware. Swatt is biologically female, making him a transmale. As such, he is taller than a male mosquito that plays a role in his backstory, is missing the feathery antennae, and can drink blood among other things. I forgot to add it on the wall of text that is his notes. XD

The other male mosquito (that is currently unnamed at the time of this comment) is also a flower connoisseur and paints them frequently, referencing the fact they mainly drink nectars.

And thank you for your kind words, I really love researching animals and such, and I was prepared to answer this question when it came up.

I've been seeing those things all over the place lately; what a coincidence that you come up with a new character based on one!  Having him be a conman is pretty funny!
