I'm gonna steal this too ~~
1. The oldest one I can think of is this stupid Harry Potter self-insert I had as a kid and I hate that character we do not talk about it. Oldest one that I don't still hate is probably Nettle/Nettleheart, an old Warriors OC
2. I have time-traveller OC, who is totally not ripped off of timekeeper cookie, no no, that I haven't talked about publicly, that one's still just a concept basically
3. not really because most of them end up as good guys later :')
4. Just for fun
6. Get an idea usually based on an existing piece of media because I am physically unable to be original, expand on that idea, get super attached to the result, make it in gacha club at some point (yes i use gacha club please don't hate me), keep playing with it forever, never share it with anyone
7. um basically everyone is aro/ace lol
8. no
9. uhhhhhhhhhhhhh I have a bunch of characters based on immune cells which is a bit odd I think
10. speaking of my immune cell characters: I love my designs for them so much I would die for all of them
11. Mostly
12. I have killed no one and I don't want to kill anyone they are my babies ;-;
13. I guessss I mean I do have a character who does have parents but they're not really important except for that character's angsty backstory
14. I don't remember :((
15. every. single. one. I love them all to death but aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I suck at writing
16. uhhh the shortest one is probably the magpie. well, when that character is a magpie. they can shape-shift into a magpie :DD shape-shifting is the best superpower and you can't change my mind. anyway I digress
17. i dunno
18. No. Expect the cringey self-inserts, they can die in a fire
19. Yep. When I was younger I made a self-insert for every single piece of media I liked. it's so flippn embarrassing aaaaaaaaaaaaa
20. all of them. look, I love every single one and you couldn't pry any of them from my cold dead hands. but they all suck. I suck at writing. I suck at making characters not suck. I'm sorry everyone I wish you existed in the brain of someone better at writing aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ;-;
