Artist's Comments

I finally got around to doing Misuteru's Original Character art meme. I progressed at the sluggish rate of two panels per day, and I actually finished it about a week ago but I didn't want to upload until I'd gotten most of my old art out of the way.

Here are the full names of my participating characters, as they wouldn't fit in such small boxes:
1. Tiaoeus Qxfhgbzlkcjnwpnrvy (not to be confused with the Tiaoeus who doesn't have a stupid last name)
2. Arvoquille the Verdant
3. Krdevere
4. Anthimn Theonorof
5. Suntien Sundarré
6. Ighoude the Plague
7. Luillinind Luirre
8. Yegarnil Yegshar
9. Nomusah Rosanmel Brechster
10. Keivlrich
The meme additionally features cameos from Raspel the lamprey, Xamotia, and "Anopheles" (one of the essentially-nameless eye-sucking creatures). Forvand and Sternstein appear as well, but since they're parasites Anthimn wears like clothing I'm not sure their presence is worth noting.

Their numbers were assigned at random--being the D&D geek I am I used a ten-sided die--because I didn't want my previous knowledge of the meme to bias my character assignments. The random numbers mean that several of the panels aren't particularly humorous.
It's also unfortunate that Luillinind and Anthimn (my two most-developed characters) hardly got to do anything; Luillinind didn't even get any lines.
The more interesting sides of Tiaoeus's personality don't really come through in the dialogue snippets he has.
I am pleased that Krdevere was number 3, mostly because of the "everyone gangs up on 3" question.
Arvoquille is inconveniently large. I can barely fit half his face in a panel with any other character, and even then he's still not drawn to scale.
Ighoude got to display a different emotion in every picture, for which I am pleased.
I wasn't sure how to handle the "5 and 9 get drunk" question because technically neither character can get drunk. Suntien, Luillinind, and Yegshar are all members of a bioengineered species that's immune to the effects of most foreign substances including alcohol. Nomusah on the other hand is a circaen, and alcohol in doses small enough to make a human slightly tipsy is absolutely lethal to circaens. Ultimately, I decided to suspect the laws of the universe for the picture and pretend they could get drunk because it was better than the alternative.
To one who knows their backstory, romance between Krdevere and Ighoude would be borderline incest...

Overall, I had a lot of fun with this. I'm planning to do more OC memes in the future using some of my other characters.

Man, aren't you mad? I mean, I'm wasting about twenty-one words of your reading time. I'd be angry. So angry.
:iconscutigera:
I know, isn't it revolting?
:iconsylnil:
Haha, quite.

I always love this type of meme. I sort of want to do one, but I don't have enough characters (or rather, characters that are well-developed enough) to make it interesting. :C

There's a similar OC meme made for six characters; maybe you could give that one a try? Of course, now that I say that, I can't seem to relocate it...
:iconsylnil:
A six character meme sounds just perfect, actually. I might have to keep an eye out for that one.
