Introducing: The Lemon Demon Ghost
[he/they/it pronouns]
I have never made a truly original Danny Phantom OC before so I’m pleased to present Lemon! Offspring of Undergrowth and Nocturn and utterly obsessed with lemons. He runs his own little lemon themed pop-up shop and all their powers are, you guessed it, lemon related. More Lemon Lore under the cut vvv
Lemon Ghost (LG) Facts:
He/they/it pronouns. Refer to them with the same pronouns you'd use to refer to a lemon. Mix it up or just stick with one, Lemon don’t give a flip about the semantics of human language.
Most often called “LG” or simply “Lemon”. Has often been mistaken for a dragon or demon in the past so both “Lemon Demon” (lol) and “Lemon Dragon” are also acceptable. Really any combination that involves the word lemon works.
Reserved personality. Very chill 99% of the time but never insult lemons or LG's hat in his presence.
Offspring of Undergrowth and Nocturn. Yes, you read that right.
No one knows why his obsession turned out to be lemons but we don't question it. Perhaps LG is the origin of all lemons?
About 2000-ish years old.
Power level is juuuust below that of its parents.
Plant Core (Lemon Core lol)
Their yellow shape is an outer layer that acts like a cloak and LG refers to as it’s “Peel”
No one can ever remember what LG's voice sounds like despite them speaking regularly with both customers and friends.
If LG doesn't have their hat something is very wrong and everyone in the immediate vicinity needs to run.
LG proudly cultivates its own lemon trees but can also produce them itself… Lets just say there is a a very good reason for their yellow peel/cloak.
When "Life" gives you lemons it's actually LG giving you lemons.
He has excellent night vision but is very sensitive to light.
Enjoys tricking people into making that sour "just-bit-a-lemon" face.
Will steal lemons like a little lemon whore. Heck, he'll abduct the whole plant if they think it isn't being cared for properly.
Citrus siblings? …maybe.
Lemon Ghost Basic Visual Description:
Lemon Ghost is bright yellow with two large, lighter yellow spots, one on either side of their body at about the midpoint. He is a long, fat, rounded shape that tapers at each end of his body, with no discernable neck, mouth, hands or body sections. Just smooth like a slug. His head end is held high and he always wears a large yellow sunhat in top of his head. Two smooth white horns poke through the sunhat, curving outward just slightly and ending just a bit taller than the top of the hat. Lemon’s “skin” colour on its head is a dark, almost black colour that blends into the shadows under his hat and fades into the yellow of his body a bit further down. Its eyes glow yellowish white and seem round at a distance but are actually lemon shaped. Their eyes are close to the brim of their hat and seem to peer out of the darkness of his face. On the other end of his body, it tapers all the way down to a thin tail about half the length of their body. It has a small ridge of spikes on top of its tail that get larger near the end. Lemon likes to keep their tail flat on the ground and curled close to his body similar to how a cat does. His tail is the same dark colour as his head and also fades into yellow where is meet the main body.
Lemon Ghost Visual Characteristics:
Tall. Like 9-10 feet tall on average. Lemon is smaller when in their shop with humans but their size is subjective and shifts often.
Always has his hat. ALWAYS.
Eyes glow and seem round at a distance but are actually lemon shaped up close a.k.a. you are too close.
Will always squint at sudden bright lights.
Its yellow "body" is always rounded, blobish, and somewhat slug-like unless irritated, in which case it will swell up to double its original size (or more depending on the offence) and takes on a lemon shape.
Light yellow spot, one on each side.
LG's yellow outer peel is a seamless ectoplasm construct that hides his real body, which looks a bit like a skinny featherless chicken with long thin humanoid arms, a spiky black tail and no chicken beak. Their main body is pale yellow like the inside of a lemon while all their extremities (except for its legs) are a dark, almost black colour.
Lemon has pale chicken feet under that yellow cloak. We’re not sure why.
Long, lanky arms that slide out of his peel and have subtle wood texture if you look close enough. Usually only has two arms at a time.
Arm/sleeve holes simply appear where they are needed. Peel parts like smoke or water to make way for his arms then the arm holes act like fabric as long as his arms are out.
Has no fingernails, just round smooth ends on long thin fingers. Three fingers and one thumb on each hand.
LG can, and will, grow fully formed lemons straight out of their skin, mainly on his back. Similar to Surinam toads but do not google that if you have trypophobia or are grossed out easily. LG without it’s peel is absolute nightmare fuel.

Lemon’s Pop-up Shop! Theme: Everything lemon related. It’s essentially a Lemon giftshop.
The interior of the shop is predominantly goldenrod yellow with subtle accents of green, light blue, dark brown and white. The architecture of the shop and variety of products available for sale usually change to match the location and time period but sometimes there are items for sale that are clearly out of their natural time. Always a little hole in the wall shop or street vendor, never a big store. The shop functions as a portable extension of LG's main lair. It will set up their shop in the realms, the mortal world, and even slip into different dimensions, everywhere is free real estate. Liminal space vibes. Items can be bought or traded for, currency is whatever the customer thinks the prices are supposed to be. LG will gladly trade a story or a soul of the damned for a slice of lemon meringue pie. What will it do with the damned soul? Probably just eat it and make more lemons. Damned soul lemons taste the best, extra zesty. Lemon Ghost has never owned a business license and never will. A true ally of the working class.
