#oc games

I had asked @yellomagoo about what their BG3 OC Zhevani eats for breakfast here and I was inspired to make an ask list because I thought how a character eats, especially in an adventure setting like DnD/BG3, is an underrated way to tell us exactly who they are as a person.

So here we go:

What does your OC have for breakfast?

Is your OC a snacker or a full meal person? If snacks, what do they prefer to have?

Does your OC remember to eat? If not, do they suffer the consequences?

Does your OC have a regular beverage with their meals?

Does your OC have a sweet tooth?

Does your OC do midnight snacks?

Does your OC talk during mealtime or are they a solo diner?

What does your OC bring to the potluck?

Does your OC have (or lack) table manners?

Is your OC good at cooking? How did they learn?

Does your OC have diet restrictions? By nature or by choice?

On the road, does your OC hunt for food? If so, how?

What pet peeves does your OC have about food? (Flavor/texture preferences)

For a group adventure, where does your OC sit during dinner?

Been tagged for OC lore by good @avalost @solidcarbon and @theory-of-the-crows, thank you :).

fandom (or og story): Rogue Trader (Warhammer 40k)

full name: Amanar von Valancius, nee Stubbs, nee [redacted]

gender: female

pronouns: she/they

age: it’s hard to say, stole imperial voidship and manhandled their navigator; ended up in the expanse. Let’s say, Abelard has no idea who's a young lady.  

species: human

race/ethnicity/class: white, formerly noble, formerly criminal scum

describe them physically: 170ish, mostly pale, lots of freckles. Used to study various oceanic creatures, so did a lot of swimming / diving and has lean physique as a result. Long red hair, recently less long as a result of jumping into the fire in Act 1. Accumulated a non-small amount of scars over her career from fighting, torture and messing with equipment and live wires (hello Abel). F*ck around and find out!

augmetics: lattice for interfacing with time-lapse devices, currently defunct as Imperium does not use this heretech or know about it.

describe how they dress: as you can see above, no clue about style and propriety. First come first put on. Prefers light xenomesh for everyday trampling of unfortunate NPCs but experiments a lot for fun and to push Abelard's buttons. Steals companions drip on a regular basis via redress mod. At some point expropriated Vorkosigan's stuff.

favourite things: being declared the hero of the imperium for offing competing pirates (metamodern what's your game?), space warfare, mincing enemies together with Kibellah, beach / swimming, exploring weird planets with weird phenomena in them, fixing people (fails all the time, doesn’t learn), gyrinx and pet lacerax Ravora, hanging out with the crew, hiking and collecting specimens, c++ parenting, shooting competition vs Jae (Yrliet refuses to take part in silly monkeigh business)

least favourite things: imperial religious circus (is necessary for political reasons), servitorization, Danrok’s attitude towards voidborn, administratum and other imperial institutions

hobbies: collecting and tinkering with xenos artifacts, antique and rare guns and swords, astronomy, reading, heretical jazz, made Heinrix to teach her to play organ

quirks: has ptsd, is cyclothymic, periodically refuses to eat, especially after a failure to fix someone or the situation, uses gallows humor to cope with life, uses sarcasm and irony around wrong people, gets into trouble

what's up in the romance department (and if they're aro, are they in a queerplatonic relationship): our ship is a den of Slaanesh and xenophilia, romanced everyone available except Marazhai. What? She draw a line at killing people for fun. Top romances: Yrliet, Heinrix and Cassia.

Tagging @lucheiah @fourraccoonsinacoat @count-nicula @redstairs @aseariel @thelesbianoffrontiers @chronurgy @fictionobsession @ashleeabutton @saraneth87 @themagnificentmags @vil-gereon and open tag for everyone to continue this OC lore game.

inspired by @robnikmeria !!!

some of these are lowkey like… kind of like one offs she has done…. but anyways !

@daledikarios and @flowersforthemachines wore the same hat and wanted Cioba as royalty. Who am I to deny the babygirl her crown?

In a timeline where Viago takes the throne of Antiva, Teia (obviously) becomes his Queen. Cioba would be elevated to Princess (because I said so). I had entirely too much fun designing this and I'm more than a little obsessed with it.

EDIT - worst creator ever forgot to give the blorbo her defining features... (nose stud and scar) fixed now ~
