Description PLEASE VIEW THIS BEFORE MAKING YOUR FAN CHARACTER!


A simple ref on what I keep in mind when I design these characters. I put rules for myself, so I wouldn't go overboard with the designs.

Forgot to add this!
-The shades of gray in the model means: The darker the parts, the more important they are on the body. And the lighter they are, less important. (Meaning, the fingers on a Control aren't obligatory for a Control to function.)

-Controls do not have families. No parents, siblings etc..
-They can get clothes if they want.
-There can be only one sort of  Control in each system. But since there are several systems, there can be more of the same sort of  Controls. (Example, my concept is my system, but your fan characters live in YOUR system.)
-When a Control dies too many times,(usually after 5-8 times) they become a BUG. This varies with Controls though.
-If they die too many times, they become a bug. Every time a Control dies, they lose a piece of their memory. The more they die, the less they remember. So in the end, when they become a bug, they want to steal other Control's memories to replace what they lost. 
-Controls can't feel any sexual desire or have sex, since they don't need to reproduce.
-Controls can, however, gain a deep bond with other Controls who they can trust.

If you have any questions, please ask! But I must say that this concept is still under development, so I will probably not have answers for everything yet.

:bulletred:Since people asked, yes you are allowed to make your own Control. But as long as you credit me for the original concept!
 Please call your character a fan character (FC), not an original character (OC).
Yes, there can be several designs of the same Control, just as long as they don't look like each other. (like in Steven Universe. These are no gemsonas.)
PLEASE DON'T MAKE VIRUS FAN CHARACTERS, AT LEAST NOT YET

Is Esc a part of the media controls? if it is, is it already a character? or can i try to make it?

UnknownSpy In reply to LightstarUchiha [2017-02-05 11:23:42 +0000 UTC]

Esc is a work in progress, but if you want you can do it. Since I made the world so there can be multiple of the same controls.

TVCrystal In reply to ??? [2017-02-03 20:09:07 +0000 UTC]

Is it okay to design something more "animal-like"? (Worm and Mouse) I'm not planning it to be an actual Control but something similar. Also, is it also okay to name Controls after codes and coding languages? (Tag, Script, Python, Java)

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

UnknownSpy In reply to TVCrystal [2017-02-03 20:54:07 +0000 UTC]

I haven't confirmed anything about any animal like creatures in this concept, and I don't see to them fit this world at all atm. So not really, no.

Scripts doesn't work as media controls. Scripts could have some other purposes in this world though.

TVCrystal In reply to UnknownSpy [2017-02-03 23:10:53 +0000 UTC]

Aww bummer D: I actually asked you that question because apparently, I doodled a few of the creatures designs at school and I thought that I could show you them. But now that they can't make sense in this universe, I don't know how I can redesign them.

There's more, but I purposely left them out because I felt like their names didn't fit in.

Alrighty, i see what you were doing here.
The worm concept was ok, I believe if thete was like worm formed Glitches, they could do that.
The Mouse and Cursor thing was... Tbh kind of weird. Just because you made a "backstory" for Cursor. Hahah.

But one request, could you credit me in the description since it was based on my concept?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

TVCrystal In reply to UnknownSpy [2017-02-05 15:33:44 +0000 UTC]

Ah, I see. I just made these concepts last night and I knew they were a bit rough. I also tried to make Mouse's bio focus more on her, but when I started to mention Cursor, I just went with it.
And sure, I'll do that right now

arteest76 In reply to ??? [2017-02-03 11:07:58 +0000 UTC]

Hey so I noticed you made a lot of these characters. Is it ok if I make one based off the same control, except a different design from yours?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

UnknownSpy In reply to arteest76 [2017-02-03 18:32:21 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, sure. As long as you make it as a fan character and credit me~

And.. Yeah.. Don't copy my design, just saying, these are not something like Gemsonas. Y'know xD

arteest76 In reply to UnknownSpy [2017-02-03 20:20:50 +0000 UTC]

Yea of course! I really like your designs but I wont copy! And I'll take it as a fan character, not an oc. Because it isnt my idea! I really like Eject and Shuffle's design! And copy and paste!

Madlkin48 In reply to ??? [2017-02-02 00:14:14 +0000 UTC]

Hello hello! I'd loooove to create one and was wondering if 'language' could be one? Since you can pick the language you'd use when browsing the web.

No, Language is not a control... But Settings would be.

If there is a cursor, can there be a scroll media control? (I'd like to make one, that's all I can think of atm)

Oh, yay! Wait, now I'm confused. Er, is it i can't make any that you already made, but if it's a fanmade one I can make one.

UnknownSpy In reply to if-i-was-a-fish [2017-02-01 14:44:42 +0000 UTC]

It doesn't matter, I have planned out the world so there can be many of the same controls, not just in the same System. (aka. the computer the Media Controls are in)

if-i-was-a-fish In reply to UnknownSpy [2017-02-01 14:50:58 +0000 UTC]

Oh! That is awesome! So I could create my own version of pretty much any of these? Though honestly, I just want to make designs and such. (And I kinda want to through play in a ball gown XD

And another thing (Sorry) will you be doing a Virus ref? I really want to try and do a Polymorphic Virus. (Edit) And a glitch ref? Those two sound so cool to make!

viditalcor In reply to ??? [2017-01-30 01:11:31 +0000 UTC]

by chance, is there either a byte and/or file made fan character wise (or official if i blindly missed it)?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

UnknownSpy In reply to viditalcor [2017-01-30 06:57:57 +0000 UTC]

A byte is the size of the system/city they live in. So it can't be a character.

Semi-tempted to make a media control cause it would be awesome...but most likely will screw it up royaly (wanted to make a virus cause why not?)

UnknownSpy In reply to misszena [2017-01-21 10:47:20 +0000 UTC]

Viruses are totally different from media controls. Even Trojan isn't actually what he seems.
They have different rules for their designs, just saying >u>;

Hmm, I don't want to include anything related to certain programs as Windows, Mac or so on, but I guess it's ok since it will be a fan character.

iiTacostaco In reply to UnknownSpy [2017-01-11 22:06:17 +0000 UTC]

I want to know what classifies as a Media Control.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

UnknownSpy In reply to iiTacostaco [2017-01-12 07:50:15 +0000 UTC]

Atm it's not 100℅ thought out, but as long as it's a function of any kind. And as long as it isn't an app, internet browser or a thing only a Windows, Mac or an other system has, it's qualified as a Media control.

Man, hope I explained it correctly.
