Regular and Recurring LGBTQIA+ Characters in series on TV & Streaming Video

These are characters who have first appeared or been revealed as LGBTQIA+ during the 2022/23 season, or whom I’ve recently learned about or whom I hadn’t mentioned in previous posts of this type (that is, on my old blog). Needless to say, this list is also highly arbitrary and incomplete.

Αντώνης: Το περιεχόμενο του γράμματος με απασχόλησε πολύ. Άσχετα με μας. Πώς πρέπει να αγαπάει κανείς δηλαδή; Πώς μπορείς να κάνεις τον άλλο ευτυχισμένο; Και τον εαυτό σου. Γιατί; Γιατί είναι κακό να χαρίζουμε στον άλλο αυτό που κέρδισε με την αξία του; Και κέρδισες την αγάπη μου. Να στο κρύψω; Αφού σου ανήκει.

Α ρε Ηρώ. Όλο στο ψάξιμο θα 'μαστε. Ακόμα και στον έρωτα. Δε μας φτάναν τ' άλλα.

Ηρώ: Δεν το κάνει κανείς επίτηδες.

Αντώνης: Όχι βέβαια.

Τι σε κούρασε από εμένα; Ότι σε θέλω; Ότι σ' αγαπώ; Τι πρέπει να κάνει δηλαδή κανείς για να μη σε χάσει, να παίζει θέατρο και σ' αυτό; Παράλογο δεν είναι;

Ηρώ: Είναι.

Αντώνης: Τα αισθήματά μας είναι για να τα εκδηλώνουμε, όχι για να μας τρώνε τα σωθικά. Κλαίω και τρέχουνε δάκρυα, φαίνεται ότι κλαίω. Σ' αγαπάω και μου φαίνεται στα μάτια, στον τρόπο που σε κοιτάζω. Να βάλω γυαλιά; Να πνίξω τα δάκρυα; Ε; Τι πρέπει να κάνει κανείς για να μη σε χάσει;

Ηρώ: Αντώνη...

Αντώνης: Γενικά μιλάω.

1: My first OC ever?

My first Original Character was for Skyrim. (I'm not counting the people I originally played as) The OC's name was Raven Antonis. He was supposed to me the main protagonist of some Skyrim stories I was going to make. Though then the title of protagonist got switched to his younger brother. I'm planning on making the story some day.. but I'm just too nervous. Raven is a young silvery-haired Breton (Humans who are related to Elves) with a gift for necromancy. He is incredibly naive and believes that this evil form of magic is good. Despite that he is genuinely very sweet and kind. (He's just not the brightest. 😅)

2: Do I have a personal favourite?

Yes! Vincent is my favourite Original Character. He's the one I've been working on the longest and I have spent a long time developing his personality, backstory (though it's still a secret because I'm nervous), characteristics, and even design. He's the character I'm most proud of. 😄

6: Do any OCs look similar despite not being related?

Too many! That's all I'm going to say. Lol. Sometimes I have trouble coming up with a good design and it takes me a while to get it right. Some of them look almost exactly the same except for different clothes and hair colour. Though luckily I've been getting better at this lately. 😆😅
