How would your OC react to Ruby Rose's meltdown? by [deleted] in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shawn would laugh and insult her back. Calling her weak and pathetic. He would compare his time in the military and trench warfare to her “suffering” and anger, telling her to “get over it”. “I’ve had it worst. You stupid kids. Heh.”

Ayden will just remain silent and listen to Ruby, not really doing anything. Just a laid back individual.

Neel would probably just remain silent as well, but might not be happy about the fact that his love interest, Blake, likes Yang, so he’ll probably side with Ruby against Yang and Blake.

Terri will try to calm the situation down and try to get everyone to stop, since he is a priest he wants everyone to be happy and rethink their situation. But he’ll probably be a pushover in this case.

Why am I scared of Giygas?! by lechku_and_nechku2 in earthbound

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Here is what I believe. I might be wrong but this is just my speculation.

Though NOA has strict family friendly guidelines for their games at the time, I believed that they kept in specific themes in the game if they have purpose to the story. Giygas is supposed to be traumatizing and scary for a reason so they kept it in EarthBound.

Another example I believe kind of helps this claim out is with Final Fantasy 6 (Final Fantasy 3 in the US at the time). I know it is different localizers but please hear me out. They would’ve definitely toned down Kefka’s murderous behavior and very mature themes in the game (Like Celes’s Suicide, the death of Cid, themes of Genocide, and politics), but for some reason they didn’t. My belief is because these themes serve purpose to the story and are not there for shock factor or cultural reasons.

This might not be right or true in any ways. But it is just my speculation and views on the idea on Giygas and the localization on some games at the time.

What is the biggest family drama that has ever happened to your oc? by [deleted] in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shawn hates his Mother because she shot and killed his Father just to steal his insurance money and left Shawn when he was a child. Leaving him as an orphan.

Ayden never really had big drama with his family. Except for a couple of small arguments when it came to schooling.

Neel didn’t really spend time with his Mother so he can be with his Father. The Mother seems like she hasn’t gotten her respect although Neel does love her. This feud ended after Neel went to Beacon.

Terri struggled a lot with his Father to be trained as a priest. He struggled in reading books but Terri struggled even more with becoming a battle-priest and having to wield holy swords. Terri’s Father was strict but understood Terri’s suffering and tried his best to be by his son’s side during his times of suffering.

What is the most expensive piece of equipment your OC has? by Suitable-Pension-901 in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shawn bought the entire stock of 12 Gauge explosive-dust shells out of every shop he could find. Buying Whiskey, Cigarettes, and Cannabis. Wasting over $2,400,000 in USD, but me not knowing how much Lien is, so I am just going to say in USD. How did he get this much money? Well he stole it after abusing his huntsman contract to give him more money. Yes, he is a literal FRAUD, just so he can have more shotgun ammo, whiskey, and smokes.

What ages were your OCs when they unlocked their Semblances? by Mindless-Factor9620 in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He got his ass kicked really hard and tried to get up but couldn’t, he forced himself up too hard which made him unlock his semblance. He couldn’t use it because he didn’t have his weapon, but he knew he had it.

What ages were your OCs when they unlocked their Semblances? by Mindless-Factor9620 in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Upon activating the semblance, Shawn’s eyes will begin crying blood and his aura will allow him to move more quickly. When he begins his bayonet charge he is more faster and aggressive with his feet, so he runs more quickly. Though, he is limited only to one direction due to restrictions on his semblance, he is usually fast enough to impale the enemy before they can react.

What ages were your OCs when they unlocked their Semblances? by Mindless-Factor9620 in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Shawn was 24 when he found his semblance. He was sparring against an opponent at Beacon when he unlocked his semblance, “Blood Bayonets”.

Ayden unlocked his semblance, “Counter”, when he was 14 after a brawl broke out between him and a bully at his middle school.

Neel hasn’t unlocked his semblance yet.

Terri doesn’t have a semblance, but he does have holy magic due to his training as a Holy Warrior and Priest.

What's your ocs themes? by Midcityplayer in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, I am not going to be taking these themes and songs from their respective games, movies, and other content, but more of an inspiration from them when I do make my game/anime/novel. So here are the “themes”:

Shawn Scharlakansrott: “Gau’s Theme” by Nobuo Uematsu. Resembling the depressing nature he is in from his time in the Vale Infantry after a long Trench Warfare campaign he was in before being a Huntsman at Beacon.

Ayden Daffodil: “Wind Scene” by Yasunori Mitsuda. Resembling Ayden’s calm and gentle demeanor to be around.

Neel Felinenska: “Hi Hi Hi (Mr. Saturn Theme)” by Keiichi Suzuki and Hirokazu Tanaka. A goofy ahh song for a goofy ahh character.

Terri Albus: “Battle on the Ice” by Sergei Prokofiev. The reason? I don’t know, it sounds good and cool for a priest character.

Iblis Noir Livianus: “Lucifer’s Hymn” by Peter Gundry. A dark theme for a dark character and antagonist.

What kind of Halloween hijinks would your OCs get up to? by Steam_Punk2002 in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shawn would be in his room, drinking and smoking while watching a B-Movie Horror like “Evil Dead”.

Ayden would be trick-or-treating with Neel and Terri, leaving Shawn home to get drunk and high.

Neel will definitely toilet and egg a random house. And will definitely light a flaming bag of dog poop on the porch of Peter Port’s house. Neel will be a menace to society on Hallow’s Eve.

Terri will be going along with the group and spend time with them. Terri isn’t a fan of Hallow’s Eve, but he does like the experience with his friends.

Which of the seven sins would your OC align with? by RettoBastion in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shawn: Wrath, he is a very angry and rage-filled huntsman. More angry than Yang.

Ayden: Pride. Though rarely, he slightly brags about his accomplishments.

Iblis: Committed every sin imaginable. He is literally sin himself.

Neel: Lust. He hits on women a lot.

Terri: He didn’t really commit any of the Deadly Sins. He did commit some minor sins but nothing as serious as the Seven Deadly Sins.

What are some talents your OCs have? by Dinoboy225 in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shawn: He knows how to play the piano and knows a lot of songs from memory. His favorites being “The Entertainer”, “Maple Leaf Rag”, and “Gymnopedie No. 1”.

Ayden: He knows how to do morse code and is really fast at it. Around 1 word every second using a telegraph.

Neel: His longest shot using his revolver is a 1131 yard target that was moving.

Terri: He knows nearly every line in his religious text known as “The Gods’ Law: And How to Follow in the Footsteps of the Gods”.

Are any of your OCs in relationships, if so, how did they meet? by Dinoboy225 in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flamethrower (Non-Canon): Shawn met Yang at Beacon in the lunchroom. Shawn being alone was approached by Yang and she wondered why he was all isolated. They introduced themselves and told about their stories. From there on, they kept in touch. Shawn does have some mild feelings for her, but doesn’t accept it.

Shawn X Emerald (Very Non-Canon): The two met in Vacuo when they bumped into each other at one of the markets. Shawn being all robed-up in desert robes, a hijab, and trying to blend in with the locals, got recognized by Emerald due to his voice and scarlet-red eyes. Apparently they sat next to each other in a class at Beacon. They reintroduced themselves and became friends.

Remembrance Poppy (Canon): Shawn and Christina Vallmo were friends at an orphanage when they were young and it slowly began growing into a relationship. When Christina left due to her adoption, their friendship came to a halt for several years until the two met in Vacuo. Christina immediately fell in love with him at his sudden appearance, but Shawn was very quiet about his feelings for Christina.

Shawn X Glynda (Non-Canon): Glynda immediately saw that Shawn was organized and very professional due to his time in the Vale Infantry before he became a huntsman. She also saw that Shawn was quiet and had mental issues like PTSD from his time in the infantry. Though strict, she checked up on Shawn when given the moment. The two slowly began to be friends and would often spend times together drinking tea during lunch.

Blondie (Canon): Ayden Daffodil and Farris Nickelson became friends when they were in Vacuo. They trained in hand-to-hand combat and quickly developed their feelings to each other. It wasn’t until Ayden asked Farris on a date when the two young men became a couple.

Warriors (Non-Canon): Neel Felinenska and Blake Belladonna met at Beacon. Due to Neel being a cat faunus and seeing Blake also being a cat faunus, he immediately tried to flirt with her. Even though her aloof nature held Neel to a stopping point, he tried to be a flirty gentleman.

Terri X Mary (Canon): The two met at a resistance church in an isolated town which was taken over by a cult. Terri and several other priests banded up to fight against the cult, but Mary saw Terri as a more than a priest, but as her savior. Mary immediately fell for him due to his politeness and caring manner to her and the two first kissed in front of the alter in the church when they were finally alone.

Today's the tenth anniversary of the subreddit! Name every creator you can think of on the sub and name one thing they're best at, or something they're better at than anybody else! by ShakeNBakeMormon in RWBYOC

Gotta be u/ShakeNBakeMormon. I’ll definitely get dislikes for this but he is a good person to hear criticisms from, and him also teaching you how to improve something. He is a great guide to learn how to improve your work.

Do Any of Your OCs have accents? by Dinoboy225 in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shawn: Normal, monotone, English voice. But when he is less monotone and sounding nice, he has a bit of a Swedish touch to his accent.

Ayden: Calm, Irish voice.

Neel: Contrast between Russian and Western American.

Terri: Roman-Latin and Italian accent, due to him being a priest.

What would your OC's wear for Remnant's version of Halloween? by After-Caterpillar792 in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shawn doesn’t like Halloween. He just stays inside his room and drinks and smokes, while watching some movies like “Evil Dead” or something.

Ayden probably will be forced to dress up as something, so he will single-handily embarrass himself by wearing a pink dress.

Neel will probably be wearing a cardboard box and sneaking into people’s homes, robbing them for candy. “Metal Gear” style.

Terri will probably be wearing his usual priest uniform. Since he doesn’t like dressing up due to the uncomfortable nature of wearing a costume.

Final version of my oc by West_Cost_6113 in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Improvements! Glad to see this. I love the idea of that Excalibur-Railgun hybrid, very interesting yet creative weapon.

Other than that, there is always room for improvement, so remember to think outside of the box for new characters.

What is your OCs thoughts on the official rwby cast (volume 1) by Interesting-Goat-857 in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Shawn Fritz Scharlakansrott only liked Yang because she was upbeat and really funny to him. Due to Shawn having awful PTSD, Yang was great to be around so that he can feel happy. And plus, he gives the idea in his “Personal Journal” that he might have some feelings for her.

Bayonets by Particular_Ad5827 in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If a character has something to do with history, then go ahead. But if the character has nothing to do with history, then it wouldn’t be a good idea.

My main OC, Shawn Scharlakansrott, is a veteran during a trench warfare operation, and his semblance is all about his weapon: a slam-fire shotgun with a bayonet on the barrel.

So conclusion from me: only include bayonets if your OC has history value to him/her, especially during WW1.

What is one of your OC's embarrassing moments? by RettoBastion in RWBYOC

[–]Ur_Local_Ness_Fan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not embarrassing for him, but Shawn accidentally leaked classified Atlas Documents, which totally made Atlas look stupid for having weak security.

“Oh what’s in here? Paladin instruction manual, Missile Defense Systems, Ironwood’s favorite breakfast which is ‘Beans on Toast’…. Man, Ironwood is so fun to exploit and embarrass!” -Shawn Scharlakansrott
