Alright, let's get this shit going.
First up: Of course that's a base. But considering this particular artist's other tasteless, eyeball assaulting, it's probably best she uses bases instead of drawing freehand. God only knows what horrors she's unleash if she did.
I made a new OC!! Shes for Soul Eater, a really awesome anime that I love, i just never thought to make a character like all my other animes that i like lol.
Oh no! I almost forgot to make an OC for this anime I like. How can I truly enjoy something without ruining it?
her name is Sophia Stein, shes Professor Frenkan Stein and Marie's daughter.
Firstly, how can you misspell "Franken Stein?" Second: This destroys my canon OTP of
Marie x Azusa and as such, I cannot approve!
But seriously, at least this OC has half enough sense to be the child of an actual, canon couple in the series. Still stupid.
Her wepon right there with her is Akuma, hes a gaint battle ax!!
Akuma is such an original name! Whoa! Do you really speak
the japans?
They"ve been friends for a long time so hes pretty protective over her sometimes and does his best to keep her safe even when their fighting.
So, the exact same dynamic that Maka/Soul have, but with a tenth of the depth.
She does have her moments thoughwhen she goes alittle scientist sometimes wanting to disect things like her dad, some good father daughter bonding time right there XD!
Excellent, so her main character traits are just copy/pasting other characters' quirks. NEXT!
Here's an original one! A levitating base! Definitely much more original. With a face like Kamendaru and superpowers that look suspiciously like she's holding handfuls of blueberry cookie dough, this OC definitely doesn't take the art world by storm. But how about that bio?
Name: Princess Zaranda Virtanex(Zara for short)
*sound of raucous laughter*
Age:17
Hair color: Black
Eye color: Dark purple
Purple eyes: Definitely not a Mary Sue thing
nope no no no
definitely not no way.
Powers: Dark matter energy bolts,flight,healing.
As much as the idea of Dark Matter bolts sounds awesome, it probably just means she has the same powers as Starfire but with black instead of a green light. Wait, we already have Blackfire.
Friends: Meeka(OC),Angie(sister,OC),Hyperspeed(OC),Overdrive(OC),Starfire(childhood friend).
And of course, she's friends with Starfire as well. And a bunch of poorly-named OCs.
Species: Energonian(en-er-joan-e-an)
I'm scared that this is an attempt to tie in to Transformers as well.
Other: Meeka(another OC of mine)protects Zara and her sister Angie(an OC) from an alien species thats trying to eliminate them because they are the last of their kind.
Of course, not only is she a princess, she's the last of her kind! Wait, hold on. She's being hunted down
because she's the last? Is that evil alien race's primary goal to extinguish dying species or what?
Zara is typically mild-mannered and quiet,but when angered,she can be really dangerous.
"Quiet but dangerous when mad" is such a common and abused trope in these fucking characters that I'm pretty sure it deserves a spot on those Mary Sue tests by now.
Alright, one more Shitty OC.
Name:Musk
Oh. Well, fuck.
Oh, and to top off that name, the character looks like someone set a chibified Saiyan on fire. Speaking of, I'm betting my life and money that he's some kind of fire-user. It's just so painfully obvious.
Moving on to the equally childish bio...
Nickname: Musky and Musk-Kun ( all of his friends call him that)
Sound the alarms, mateys! Batten down the hatches! Turn tail and full sail! Weeaboo attack incoming! Here's an important life tip: If your character isn't Japanese or living in Japan, they never ever ever get called "[name]-kun." No Japanese honorifics, ever. There is just no way to use those terms within English sentences without sounding like you're trying to have some kind of Moogle-esque verbal quirk.
Personality: Honest,Cool,Sly,Lovable,Sweet,Kind,Hotheaded and Funny
This is making my eyes burn. It's like some preteen's equivalent to
"Personality: So cool, you guys. For reals."
Age: 17
He's just about old enough to frame for arson. Nobody will ever believe it was you. Go ahead. Burn it down.
Yesssss, give in to the fire's beckoning. Musk will take the fall.
Theme song: This is Smash Mouth's hit song,
All Star. I've said a few times that the worst theme songs for a character are Trapt's
Headstrong and Linkin Park's
Crawling.
I was very wrong. This upbeat pop earworm is the very essence of obnoxious theme song. Congratulations for adding a new thing to my murder-list.
Talents: Singing and Kung fu fighting
Why isn't
that his theme song?
Specie: Flame Spirit *like flippy509's Stella*
And so the truth is revealed. The artist did not, in fact, create this masterpiece of character design themselves, but instead "adopted" it from the talented flippy509. What a sham!
Likes: Food,Flames and Nature
Fire and nature don't seem like the best mix.
Dislikes: Water,ice and Coldness
Just once I want a fucking character whose likes and dislikes are both interesting and unrelated to their powers.
Abilities: Making Flames out of thin Air,Fireballs and Hands of flames( all without a power-up )
All three of those can be simplified to "pyrokinesis."
Info: When he was young he use to be weak, other flame spirit's picking on him cause he was never going to make It to the flame army when he's grown up.
Just what the Mario franchise needs, an army of flame elementals. I can't criticize the existence of a race of fire-people in a universe like Mario's however. It's not like the games have much of anything resembling coherency or consistency. I just find myself irritated that they seem to be designed as chibi Dragonball Z characters.
After ears and at the age of 12 he heard someone in the flame mountains could train anybody and so he went there asking the flame spirit to train him and after more years like he was the age 15 he was now very powerful and became part of the Flame army.
What the fuck kind of twelve-year-old seeks out a wise old mentor dude to undergo years of harsh training? Better question, what kind of army recruits fifteen-year-olds?
Bonus Ability: he can grow out wings made out of flames
Now we can check off "magical wings" in the list of shit fancharacters should never do.
Element: Good guy
I cannot fathom how "Element" could be so misunderstood.
wanna rp about him?
Sure! I'll start, in typical dA RP fashion, with an action. Such as pushing Musk off the nearest cliff.
no hurtful comments
if you don't like it then don't comment and ignore it but if you do like it then comment and fave!
I will forever hate the people who put this bullshit on their art.
Final Thoughts: This OC is bad, but there's nothing much to say about that. How to fix it? Grow up a few years and read/watch/play more. Experience art, learn themes and study characters. Develop your understanding of what is and isn't good. There's nothing here to be improved, nothing that can stop this from being a shit character. This is why little critiquing little kids' works is a pain; what can I say that matters?
I need a drink.
