COLOR THEORY IS MY PASSION TAG GAME

✮ Pick existing OC(s) that you always have a consistent color scheme for.✮ Take a screen (or a few! or a lot as many as you want tbh) of them in those colors.✮ Optional [PART 1]: be a nerd and talk about your reasoning behind their specific palette if there is one. If you’re doing multiple and their reasoning is linked, absolutely be even nerdier about that (see: my own characters I’m using for this starter, who were my initial inspiration for this).✮ Optional [PART 2]: color theory memes.

I'm primarily a character creator/storyteller here, so I am going to focus on OCs rather than builds/environments. I chose Sasha and Gideon (again...surprise) for this because they are the only characters whose wardrobe I very intentionally thought about.

Gideon is a worldly and sophisticated man who appreciates art in all its forms. He is a vampire who has seen the world change enormously and that passing of time is starting to weigh on him. He is icy—everything about him evokes this sense of coldness and aloofness—from his hair, to his eyes, to his unnaturally pale skin. His wardrobe reflects that, with a palette that is filled with formal clothes in classic colors: blacks, grays, navy blues, and occasionally muted browns. It makes sense: he's a vampire, no longer "alive" in the human way, and somewhat frozen—frozen in time, in a certain formality in how he conducts his affairs, and in his beliefs (he's above mortal laws, and even his coven's laws, which doesn't go over too well with the Strauds... Oopsie)

Sasha is the opposite. His colors skew to warmer, even when more muted. Also, Sasha is perennially broke, so he does not really care about following fashion trends and has created his own look. While he is usually a t-shirt and jeans kind of guy, he has been seen in more colorful outfits such as this . Sasha is very comfortable with his body...and apparently with Gideon's, too... Being a chaos gremlin, he has tried to style poor Gideon in outfits that are anathema to his very essence (lololol) but that Sasha kinda not-so-secretly digs.

My favorite trope is opposites attract, so I think I have that in mind when I create my couples. They're either opposites physically or personality-wise. It's just where I go to pretty naturally. With Sasha and Gideon, however, it was deliberate. Everything, from Sasha's t-shirt featuring the Grim Reaper in the first chapter, to Gideon's wardrobe in blacks and blues in their first meeting, was done for symbolic effect. As they grow closer and fall in love, Gideon begins to "thaw" out a little and begins finding more color in his life...in many ways.

Someday I WILL finish that story.

Thank you so much for the ask and the show of interest and the lovely compliments, there's a lot of people showing interest in the lore, screenshots and potentially readubf lately and it means the world to me < 3 I would definitely say wait until it's finished, because nobody wants to read 100+ chapters of a story that may not get finished. I do plan to finish it no matter what if technology allows it but...technology has to allow it. On the glitchiest game on the planet. : P

Also thank you for your lovely tags on my Magic Realm pics. The 'pit' in the middle of the main hall will have statues related to the Sages lit up from the bottom, eventually anyway. I'm so glad you like the edits! I do need to get back to learning renders but it requires patience I don't have.

OMG YES you get it, I am providing the stuff I want to see too haha and I'm glad that there are some REALLY equally dedicated occult Simmers on here with their own in-depth ideas and stories as well. I'm glad you said that as well since Tumblr tends to lend itself better to shorter, more comic like Sims stories and I just cannot write with that kind of succinctness or brevity and I cannot write dialogue strong enough to hold up a story on its own either XD

🎭 - OC in another OC’s typical attire

Ulrike Faust

1. She used to be the tallest in her classroom as a kid, and the other kids mocked her calling her “a scary giant”; so she decided to live by that nickname and from that moment on she beat anyone who messed with her

2. Has an older brother who’s currently in prison

3. Her paintings usually don’t sell that well, so she has to do other (more or less legal) jobs on the side

4. Is the “big sister” friend to her fellow Renegades members

5. When someone calls her an awful person, she replies “thank you”

And here’s a goth Sitanna for @m0n0lithical! 

Sitanna is usually pretty monochromatic, but she likes to pair monochrome with lots of gold accent, so I tried to stay away(mostly) from gold accents and stick with black or silver, and a pop of red.
