SORRY IF I CONFUSE YOU WITH MY TAGS ON YOUR POST!
This is a "tagging my OCs" blog run by @sunstartle! I just like sorting, mostly. Sorry.
So, who are these characters?
Glad someone would definitely willingly ask that! The characters focused on here are from the FirstVerse: my superhero worldbuilding project that I’ve been working on for ~3-4 years.
I plan on doing something with it but that goal is a very moving target and I change my mind on it all the time. I'm mostly set on the fact that it will be something 3D, though.
The First Watch takes place on a fictionalized Earth in 2022 & revolves around the titular First Watch, a team of teenage superheroes who defend their city, Wynsbury, from evil, and especially from the supervillain organization the SeaSong Network.
It is largely unfinished, but if you are someone interested in specific worldbuilding details (I am very flattered!) my work-in-progress worldbuilding document can be found here. You can also find sketches, fun stuff, etc here!
MAIN CAST:
Annulet (16, she/her), professional anxious perfectionist & team leader of the First Watch. Her tag is #c.annulet.
180 (16, she/her), ball of energy with questionable decision-making skills & member of the First Watch. Her tag is #c.180.
Kudzu (17, she/her), cuttingly practical lone wolf & member of the First Watch. Her tag is #c.kudzu.
Sunstrike (15, he/him), slightly off-putting sweetheart & the youngest member of the First Watch. His tag is #c.sunstrike.

There are others! So many others that I do not have the energy to write out as such. If/when they get tags, they will be tagged as c-dot-their name, like the others!
RELATIONSHIP TAGS:
If a post concerns the relationship between two characters, I will be tagging it with a specific relationship tag to help filtering. Relationship tags will not be added if the post applies to both/all of the tagged characters separately, only if it specifically concerns their intrapersonal connection(s).
The vast majority of the relationship tags are PLATONIC!

FACTION TAGS:
If a post involves one or more members of an organization, the organization will receive an H-tag.
#h.firstwatch | #h.polisguard | #h.seasong
If a post directly concerns the organization itself, the organization will receive an O-tag.
#o.firstwatch | #o.polisguard | #o.seasong
OTHER TAGS:
#a.bestfit is for posts that I consider (subjectively) to be the "best fits". Not necessarily 'faves' but posts I find to be the most consistent with the tagged character(s).
POST SORTING:
Sorting tags are S-tags! They define the type of post and also how I am interpreting it.
#s.mine: Posts I have made / written myself; non-reblogs. Planned to be largely uncommon.
#s.myart: Again, not planning on posting much/any of this, but if I do, art I have drawn myself will go here.
#s.ask: If anyone sends asks here (which you are more than welcome to do!), they will be posted under this tag.
#s.info: Any informational posts written by me -- such as this one!
#s.ooc: Posts about writing, character creation, etc that I feel apply to the tagged character(s).
#s.fits: Posts that could apply to or be talking about the tagged character(s) and do not refer to anyone involved as fictional.
#s.ic: Posts I can imagine actually being written or said by the tagged character(s).
#s.aesthetic: Moodboards or general images fitting the aesthetic vibes of the tagged character(s).
#s.energy: Typically images of the unhinged variety that carry the energy or vibes of the tagged character(s).
And I think... that might be all! Thanks so much to anyone who actually read this and I'm sorry if this blog still manages to be a disorganized nightmare even with this system... lol.
