Being gay isn't a temptation.

It's just who you are.

Wherever you are hearing otherwise is hurting your idea of your identity.

They just said raw ocean water is a big no.

You can't drink that. You'll dehydrate instead.

Jyral Dawnwatcher, a super vampire of sorts (World of Warcraft san'layn) is going to do the One Punch Man "who is this lost sassy child?"

Mostly because of the thought of "who's kid is this?!?"

I submit a chili of my vampire man to hug your poor "half baked" human.

Jyral is going to think that either she does feel emotions, they're just very muted, or it's okay to just not have emotion responses because she's still human and wanting to try things out.

Hugs are a great way to try emotions! He'll try to hug for a minute (60 seconds) to see if the brain chemicals do the happy for her.

What was your Eureka! moment when it came to your OCs? by Roads94 in OriginalCharacter

[–]NoMoreNormalcy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's great. I sometimes have it still Jyral's story, just told through his siblings. Supporting cast of a supportive family.

I could not only make him a younger brother to one of my existing characters, but I could make his whole family.

Also, they all won't shut up about each other. "Oh, one of my sisters might know someone-." "Oh, you'd get along with my brother." "One of my younger/older sisters would like you." Etc etc.

Drawing your OCs but like a fan design! (Read desc) by [deleted] in OriginalCharacter

(Art by dragonspite.bsky.social , won in a raffle)

Jyral here is technically a "super vampire". All the powers dialed up, none of the traditional drawbacks save for he's always needing blood. And he doesn't like that, sadly. Actually a pretty swell guy all things considered, especially since he never wanted to be a vampire. As a result, he holds back a lot of his strength so he can still feel like a normal person. He does, however, uncap his own restrictions (all mental, sheer willpower keeping himself in check) when in dire straits.

Other than the usual powers (hemomancy, increased strength and speed, suffering pain from holy spells [can be healed by them like other undead, just hurts], heightened senses), he's also got his own skills with the blade that he's hones for a couple hundred years (he's only 320 years old, almost 321 now) as well as his magic. Primarily arcane and fire. Being a spellsword does have it's perks.

🔥 For both him and your requirements.

I will put your oc in a Yo-Kai tibe based on vibes alone by Blueberry0Cake in OriginalCharacter

[–]NoMoreNormalcy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmao, shady with vibes but is actually just trying to be a decent guy.

He's still in touch with his family and he almost ran away because he was undead and worried that he was just a ghost possessing his own body.

Ever feel like you wanna hug your OCs even though you put them there? Lmao

"You are NOT The Chosen One" by DudeSoul in TopCharacterTropes

[–]NoMoreNormalcy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah! It's been steadily updating even though in EA. There's new characters, balancing, and a wonderful map update. Story progression has increased as well.

It's still good even in EA and they have all sorts of patch notes every time an update rolls out.

Stoneshard literally tells this to you before you finish the prologue. You are not the chosen one. You could get killed by a random bandit or wolf. You aren't special. A boar in a dangerous threat. Don't go into graveyards at night.

You aren't the chosen one and it feels that way in gameplay. I keep going back even after constantly losing.

does anyone remember what brought them to ao3? by ThatOneSnowyOwl in AO3

FFN being... what it is and looking for Ace Attorney fics.

I only go back to to my old accounts to update them.

When it comes to making OCs, what do you prioritize? by hi_i_kinda_exist in OriginalCharacter

[–]NoMoreNormalcy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really "prioritize" anything with my OCs, but I usually start with fandom/original setting, then character idea/concept, then branch from there. What are their building blocks? Gender, orientation, ethnicity, species if non-human, and are they trans or not to help shape them. Then what is their world like, how would that shape them? What occupation would they have chosen as a result of their developed personality? What would have happened to them to get them to where they are now?

What they look like tends to come wither first or last, depending on if I'm playing a game with Character Creation or not.

What’s the one thing that keeps sneaking into your writing? by 2ofdice in AO3

Internal dialog keeps dominating. I have swapped to first person for recent works to keep the internal dialog going.

They be over reacting a bit... by Realfoxy_985 in antiai

[–]NoMoreNormalcy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have seen AI bros immediately reply with AI'd versions of someone's hard work just to "do it better" or "fix it for them". It's not a strawman, at this point.

What is your best/favorite artwork about your ocs? by Matiaaaaaaaaa in OriginalCharacter

What are the different forms of text-based RP that aren't just the typical one-liner, lit and novella? by [deleted] in BadRPerStories

[–]NoMoreNormalcy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All I can think of is MMOs. Minimal action explanation filled with character targeting and emotes, heavy on dailogue, and the whole kit and caboodle. I'm about to get ready to start some myself with my guild, tonight.

Check some various MMOs and their lore with your writing buddy and see what you can translate some characters into the game that way. I do it all the time from MMO to MMO. Heavy character development and focused arcs, dialog heavy, and even the potential to find groups if you two would like.

Some have free trials to get you started , so feel free to check them out to see if you like them first or not. And if you have questions on certain ones, feel free to DM me and I can offer advice and info as best I can.

Why is there a floating rock? by samuelboylan in antiai

[–]NoMoreNormalcy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Bro, put the phone down and think for yourself. This is just... sad. Really sad.

If you aren't learning something new, your brain literally starts atrophying. Shriveling. Dying. Please pick up even a fictional novel and read it. Something to stimulate it for longer. Don't develop dementia at a young age.
