Nish's Original Characters

[nishthedish]

Alright people, I've been dwelling on this idea for a while now, and I've decided to finally share with all of you the many characters I've created in my mind and drawn ;D Always check for a new post by me, for I just may be posting yet another character once I can think of something.
So here is how it will work: I'll post a picture of one of my characters, then beneath, I'll add a nice little paragraph of background information about them (ALWAYS starting w/ their name)...the info I have will be based solely on whatever I think up, so it may not always be the same set demographics. So without further adue, let's begin!


Raz Raymond:
Age: 17
Bio: Raz was a pretty typical teenager from a busy town...as the son of a blacksmith, Raz was around larger weapons like broad swords and hammers a lot. Eventually, Raz's father made him a trusty mallet of his own. Raz eventually joined a guild w/ friends and they would travel and assist people when they were needed.

But, on one fateful mission, Raz and co. were confronted with a terrible beast that needed slaying. The battle was won, but not without consequence, Raz had all four of his limbs and neck badly scarred, torn, and battered during the course of the fight (this beast liked to incapacitate it's opponents before slowly going in for the kill). Through painstaking feats of mechanical engineering coupled with strong binding spells and magic, Raz was given another chance...

These special new hands and feet are tethered to his body like strings on a marionette...powered by his own life and will, the magic will hold his head, hands, and feet to his torso as long as he is still living, and he can turn it off/on and extend his body parts off in any direction or over any distance he pleases, so long as his own strength is enough to push it.

Raz is a very playful and relaxed young man. He keeps his cool by making jokes out of everything and anything he can during a given situation. He gets mistaken for not caring or just not being serious because of this, but he just goofs off to hide it.

[nishthedish]

Alright, time to introduce the little shadow being next to Raz.

Spectre the Shadow Mage:
Age: 15
A simple child of a talented race of shade beings residing in the Crescent Moon Village...each excels at different skills, but they are mostly known for powerful magic and unfortunately tend to be underhanded w/in alliances...Spectre is on a simple adventure to track down 2 of his siblings who have wandered into a guild and are creating an "unsavory" reputation for the residents of the village.

He met Raz while visiting his (Raz's) hometown looking for clues on his siblings' whereabouts...although he didn't find any clues, Spectre joined Raz's guild and together they have searched for more information and leads during each and every one of the few missions they've had.

Spectre loves conversation, but never starts them as much as Raz does. He tends to join one and partake in the jokes and quips that are exchanged. Spectre tends to work best on his own, but isn't as rigid as he seems. He'll gladly take any help his friends will give him.

[nishthedish]

time for yet another....as a quick disclaimer, NO she IS NOT crushing her arm, it's supposed to be a wrinkle effect on her sleeve and I messed up. Just want to clear that up, but feel free to use that as a running gag (Gigi calls her Arm Crusher)


Jima Shi
Nickname:Jema
Ethnicity:Japanese
Age:17
Bio: Jima is the shy, quiet daughter of the Shi household. Although very quiet, her more reserved (and kinda traditional) style makes her stick out just enough to garner a small gang of friends. She gets around and keeps busy mainly because of her best friend Susan, who is completely opposite of her.Of course, when need be, Jima is perfectly capable of handling herself and holding down the fort whenever left in charge of the house or anything.

Jima's nickname comes from the fact that Susan used to talk VERY fast as a small child and constantly said "Jema" instead of Jima...Jima just went w/ it(so did everyone else) and never corrected her.

Jima spent a few yrs. helping at her older sister's restaurant and picked up martial arts moves by watching movies from her secret Kung-Fu archive when on break. She's been practicing more and more techniques ever since, becoming quite the fighter and slowly developing techniques that have been passed down through generations of the Shi household. Although strong willed and a highly capable young lady, her low self-esteem causes her to buckle under pressure.

[Gigispackles]

Nicely done. =D I like how good in detail, but not too much detail you used. The descriptions are short and quite formative.

P.S. ARM CRUSHERRRR!!

[nishthedish]

Alright, about time for a villain. Although a main villain, she serves more as the Jr. Troopa of my story. By this, I mean that she has a tendency to fail epically and screw up w/e plans she or the other villains have. She is never taken seriously by heroes. I created her in Soul Calibur 4 before this idea came to mind, so I have a picture from the game, as well as a drawing done by myself!



Scarlet Leilana
Age: 18
Scarlet was once the member of a family of proud, talented, and well-known mages/magicians. Their mystical feats were known far and wide, and they made a living performing to entertain people of all ages; Scarlet was better w/ weapons than the others, so her scythe is her prized possession. Scarlet was always a bit of klutz, even though she was talented like the rest. Due to this fact, Scarlet eventually became a sort of comic relief during performances. She was fine with it until she tried to show off her more serious techniques, but nobody took her seriously. Although everyone was laughing because she was good at what she did, she saw it as mocking.

One day, her brother was chosen to be the lead in their next big event and Scarlet saw this as an opportunity to finally get recognition as more than "the funny one". So she devised a plot to get her brother sick, so that she could take the spotlight and show off what she can do. So Scarlet decided to concoct a little substance to make her brother ill, then set it in a huge tub for later. She needed a lot of ingredients and it became unstable.

A few hours before the performance, Scarlet was setting up lights for the show, watching as her brother approached where she would unleash the mixture and get him sick. Unfortunately, their mother called him for something and in a panic Scarlet got up to tell him to stay put. She lost balance from the high loft near the lights, and plummeted into the vat. Scarlet had used a lot of ingredients containing indigo, so when she emerged, her entire body and clothes were colored blue. Scarlet changed clothes and washed off, but, to her shock, her skin didn't clear up, the indigo only washed out of her hair and clothing. It had seeped into her skin and her entire body was now a deep, profound shade of blue forever.

With her entire body color being a constant reminder of her biggest failure, Scarlet set out on her own a week after the performance. She decided that she would have to FORCE people to take her seriously, through terror, crime, and intimidation. Unfortunately, everyone remembers her family name and still fail to see how dangerous she is, causing Scarlet to get flustered, embarrassed, and upset as everyone tried to get her to do tricks and sign stuff.

I hope you guys like these so far, I need to think up the backgrounds for the other characters now, so it may be a few before I reveal the next character. Hopefully this gets some good views until then.

[[Lycan]]

Great Stuff so far nish. Keep it up Arm crusher she cease all attempts of tragedy scarlet will let lose and always laugh as scarlet would mess up. XD

[Raevis]

Nice. Waiting to see more.

I had my brother (herein referred to as Arden) draw a couple of your characters because he's better at it than I am, and this was the result for Raz and Specter:

[nishthedish]

those are AWESOME sumote, really nice rendition of the original designs...I love seeing my own characters in another person's style

[nishthedish]

Alright, time I finally delved into the character of Jima's best friend:


Susan
Age: 17
Susan is the same age as Jima and has gone to school with her ever since early childhood, back in Kindergarten. Although she no longer talks fast (like she used to as a child), she's still a very energetic, feisty, and peppy/cheerful girl. She's a very loyal, trustworthy girl who is always ready to stand by her friends under any circumstances. She isn't exactly the brightest person, but she is much more knowledgeable than you'd expect, but it's mostly good judge of character and wisdom, for her common sense is quite lacking.

Susan isn't afraid of doing anything reckless, but she has a great deal of self respect and won't stand for anything that would demean herself or her friends. Thanks to this fact, she tends to have a bit of a short fuse, but Jima is always there to hold her back and speak against anything that wouldn't be their best interest.

[Milk]

lmao arm crusher.
Can we possibly make requests?

[nishthedish]

you guys could possibly make requests once I'm able to post every character...I need to have descriptions for everyone so that I can leave them alone, knowing it's all set and I won't forget anything. Just be patient and I'll have them all set soon.

[nishthedish]

next up, we have the only good guy to not be made of flesh and blood:


Zeta
Zeta is a state of the art, hi-tech, futuristic android. Zeta doesn't have much memory of exactly where she was created and for what purpose, but she does remember a large laboratory and breaking out of her containment capsule, eventually escaping. Unfortunately, she doesn't remember much after that until she was free. She remembers being attacked before things become blurry, but this may be linked to a little problem she has.

When under heavy attack and mental stress/fatigue, Zeta goes into a sort of "override mode" where she has absolutely no power over what she does and becomes a true weapon of destruction, if allowed to roam freely. In this state, Zeta has access to weaponry and abilities within herself that she could never hone normally.

Although she was basically created for battle, among every possible everyday situation one can think of, she has become a very kind and practical friend after being discovered by Raz and the gang. Being an android, Zeta is still learning about the world around her and has a constant need for logic out of sheer habit. She's very sensitive about the fact that she merely looks human. She feels monstrous, knowing that within her body is gears and mechanics, instead of a beating heart.

[nishthedish]

and now we have our next good guy:


Kagetomi
Age: 20
Kagetomi is a tribal warrior from a race of people who live deep in more natural areas like lush jungles. They're said to have descended from an ancient race that resembled cats and wolves, so most from the race have animal ears, tails, and/or any other animal traits one could imagine. Kagetomi has feline traits of cat ears and a tail. Being outside all the time, she's a very flexible and athletic young woman who has the strength, stamina, and attitude to deal with anything thrown her way.

With the claws, speed, sleekness, and fangs of a great feline, as well as her trusty spear, Kage shows exactly what a girl like her can do. Her ruby red cat eyes can see almost anything! Unfortunately, being out in the wilderness and having to fend for herself constantly has made her quite short w/ those she isn't familiar with. Most people in her race are well dressed and can wear anywhere form a reasonable amount of clothing, to just enough to be seen as decent. Kagetomi's lack of much clothing is her small way of making herself faster and isn't afraid of showing off her beautiful body (she doesn't even see why it would be a problem). Of course, her short temper leads to trouble when foolish boys and men make comments about her attractiveness. Her race has many advances in technology and magic, but not HUGE leaps. Kagetomi is the most wary of technology of anybody in her race and seeing something as advanced as Zeta gives her chills.

Like Zeta, Kage has an uncontrollable form in which she loses control of her senses and body. Every 20 years, some unlucky women in her race will be born afflicted by a crazy bloodlust that occasionally activates. They get signs of when it will happen, so Kage can warn Raz and the gang beforehand. Lucky for Zeta, she won't be a target during these phases. But Kage becomes more of a wild beast in this form, her fangs and claws becoming sharper, and simply attacking anything in sight.

[nishthedish]

next up is my last hero for now...I haven't thought up any others yet, so the next will be a villian


Crucible
Age: 19
Crucible is a girl from a somewhat noble family who's always been quite privileged. Although she's had things easy, she hates being pampered and always tries to do things herself, but because of this haughty nature, she gets annoyed rather easily at times. When this is added to her sense of duty for those aorund her, Crucible will always insist upon doing things for people, even when she CLEARLY isn't needed.

As a child, Crucible was always a bit of a bookworm and tended to get into mythical tales of beasts and magic, eventually leading her to become the growing mage she is today. Now in a loose band of monster hunters, she travels the land researching the magnificent creatures of the world and helping to slay those who would simply bring destruction and misery to those around them.

[nishthedish]

alright folks, time to introduce the right hand man, errr, woman of my villain (who shall be revealed next):


Alice
Age: (when last recorded) 18...due to circumstances, her age is no longer relevent or existant
Alice is the right hand woman of our villain. She's a very normal girl until you get to her true feelings and desires. She acts innocent and oblivious a lot, but on the inside, is a very sadistic little harpy who will entice anyone she can to do her bidding and hopes to one day gain as much power as possible to rule over people in some way.

This underhanded way of acting makes her hard to trust, but our villain saw a softer side to this girl, and cared for her like a daughter. Alice was overwhelmed by this motherly feeling and will follow her master to the ends of the Earth, knowing that one day, she will be given what she needs to become the all powerful Queen/Mistress she hopes to be. In a way, she may just want appreciation on the inside.

Some would wonder if this sadistic, evil, and masochistic personality is simply the outer lining of an even greater insanity. Alice loves to constantly torment and bully Scarlet because of how much stronger she is, treating the poor girl like a mere toy. Alice is excited by the feeling of having power over someone and abusing their helplessness in every way possible. It can be stated that Alice has not only hurt Scarlet and injured her body, but she has also been seen fondling and groping the poor girl. Alice loves how much this makes Scarlet panic, and mixes in the groping and touching w/ attacking her. As a result, Scarlet's security and self-esteem is slowly dieing w/ each encounter.

[nishthedish]

and here we go, the main villian of my world!


Dr. Zhen Sai Onyde
Age: 30
Ms. Onyde was once a simple chemical scientist and worked a lot with many types of poisons. After lots of research and making a name for herself, she eventually began to dabble in mechanics, not only understanding them, but also combining and using them. Zhen would do many experiments in secret and use her equipment to see just how much these things could do. Through the use of her tools, she soon fell in love w/ the mechanical side of science and now uses a combination of mechanics, robotics, and poisons. She was the greatest mind chemical science had seen, and it went to her head.

As a great genius, Zhen has used her knowledge of robotics to construct a fortress for herself. She has slowly been gaining followers as she uses her knowledge to slowly overpower the countries of her world.

She always keeps a calm disposition, but on the inside, she's very calculating and sly. Always steps ahead of everyone, Dr. Zhen Sai Onyde is prepared for most situations and can be quite cruel when her followers' results in their missions are less than satisfactory. She sees Alice as a sort of daughter b/c of how similar their goals are. Unfortunately, this leads her to overlook all the abuse Alice gives to Scarlet.

[[Lycan]]

hehehehe just need a male villian now XD
oh by the way..should post there ages like Raz

[nishthedish]

ages posted...you know, I just may make this story, but I could use a little help w/ ideas...I simply have the people

[nishthedish]

Alright guys, here is an early version of what Kagetomi's curse does to her. It's a split screen of her normally (left) and the curse (right). FYI, I'm gonna improve her cursed form. This one is what she looks like early on when the curse still takes full control of her and makes her a violent and dangerous cat girl w/ a major bloodlust.

[nishthedish]

Ok, here is the final look of Kagetomi's cursed form.

After an extra violent transformation into cursed form, Kagetomi's stamina finally ran out and she collapsed, deathly tired. As Jima and the gang made her comfortable and watched over her in the night, she began to shiver immensely. Jima became curious as to what was wrong, but within Kage's mind, an important battle was being fought. Kage's soul was fighting against the twisted version of herself that the curse created. It was a battle to determine who would gain control of the body. Kagetomi and the curse fought for what felt like days, although it was only a matter of a couple hours in reality. In one last ditch attempt, the curse stunned the catgirl and sliced at her continuously, tearing open skin near her eyes, cheeks, chest, and arms.

Kagetomi then realized exactly how to win...she took a deep breathe started to gather inner strength, eventually toppling the curse and putting it under her control. The wounds were fresh and deep, but the bleeding began to slow and became permanent scars/markings of her triumph.

[nishthedish]

Finally found the micro card for my phone, so I took more pictures of Scarlet. Yes, she's my favorite of all my characters for many reasons, lol.

-This one is a redo of the one in her profile post.


-A simple picture to give you a glimpse at what she looks like w/out her jester-esque hat on.


-Another pose shot w/ the hat on...I felt like taking another.

[nishthedish]

Alright, time for yet another character who was originally a random character I created in Soul Calibur 4 who, like Scarlet, I decided to add to my story. So I now introduce you to Miss Caroline!



Miss Caroline Welkins
Age: 24
----Caroline is a very accomplished teacher and scientist much like Zhen. She tends do dabble in many different fields, so she has become quite the intellectual. She's never been much of a talker and is a bit of an introvert, which has led her to become a bit...eccentric most of the time. Due to her shy nature, Jima seems to be the one who understands her the most. She's a good person and great to go to for advice, but it simply gets lost in translation a lot. She's calmest w/ a hot beverage and a book in her hands.

----Caroline was great friends w/ Zhen and was her assistant. Zhen met her one day at one of the many places she lectured at, and they somehow hit it off fairly well. Over time, they became almost like a "Batman and Robin" duo in the science community and a lot of Zhen's success can be credited to her. Of course, the whole deal about her eyes is actually a result of their last endeavor. The two had been working on a theory to splice human DNA w/ that of animals and/or insects, but in the end the success came w/ straining the machinery in use. A freak energy surge and small explosion hit Miss Caroline as she and Zhen went to protect their subject...it left her blinded, but luckily it isn't permanent. Her eyesight is coming back very slowly, but her eyes are forever a cloudy shade of grayish white...Zhen felt bad sending off her best friend/assistant like that, so she made special glasses for the girl that greatly improve her eyesight and the yellow tint fools people into thinking she has yellow eyes.

[nishthedish]

Alright folks, time for my last villian. This young man is quite a mystery to most people he meets...even to me. Seriously, I'm not ure where I'm gonna go w/ this dude once I introduce him.


Cecil
Age: unknown
----Not much is know about Cecil outside the fact that he suddenly appeared some time after one of Zhen's biggest experiments w/ gene splicing. Evidently, that is around the same time Zhen's partner and friend, Miss Caroline Welkins disappeared. Like Jima, he appears to be very well-versed in the arts of hand-to-hand combat, although more so than her. Jima tends to useboth her hands and small weapons like fans, while Cecil is all about a combination of his body (mainly hands) and mantis claws. Cecil is constantly training and meditating. Due to the fact that he's blind, his other senses have been extremely heightened, leaving him to slowly become one of the most skilled fighters out there.

----In order to become one w/ his senses and the world around him, Cecil has done plenty of meditation and is thus a very calm individual...even more so than Zhen herself! Where Zhen can eventually lose her temper and bring her wrath down upon any who are deserving, Cecil can stay completely calm, never needing to waste words or even show a reaction. Some would wonder if he truly knows how to express himself...

Fun Fact: Cecil's god awful flaming pink pants were given to him by Scarlet and Alice. In their one moment of cooperation, they figured they'd help him pick out a signature outfit, and decided on the pants b/c he'd never realize it. The girls still laugh at it to this day. They were going to use the ones w/ sparkles on it, but Zhen dumped those a while ago...said they gave her a headache.
