Character Design 1+2 - Alexias (redux) and Tachis

Oct 20, 2006 23:16

Alright, it's been what, two and a half weeks since I last posted? XD School's been sucking up all of my time, so I'm afraid I've been neglecting this journal quite a bit, but no worries, I shall do everything I need to all in good time. ♥

Anyway, I've been slowly (but steadily!) filling out this Fiction Writer's Character Chart for many of my characters, so I thought, while I was at it, I might as well revamp Alexias' profile. I really didn't like how that last sketch sheet came out, so I redid it. His character has changed little to none, but I like how the new drawings came out better. And also, I did most of the character chart for my second main character too, so his main stats are going up as well. :3 All the information that's going up is non-spoiler, simply becuase I feel like being secretive and mysterious, but also becuase this entry would be hopelessly long otherwise. Just basic information and states here~ 8D So, without further ado!

Is s/he healthy? Generally, yes.
Physical disabilities: Allergic to llamas and petunias

FAVORITES:
Character's favorite color: Blue (Cerulean blue)
Character's least favorite color: None
Why? As an artist’s son, he’s been told that no color is ever useless.
Favorite Music: Hit the Lights, Darude, Nujabes (though will listen to almost anything) (says its Sting and Beethoven)
Least favorite Music: Coldplay
Why? “It doesn’t…have musical qualities. It’s like a clock ringing; pretty, but not art.”

Literature: Comic books/manga, Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy (says its Paradise Lost)
Expressions: Usually slightly bored/sleepy, but around peers, happy and polite
Expletives: Doesn’t swear around peers; privately, “The fuck?!”
Mode of transportation: Gets around campus by walking

HABITS:
Hobbies: Writing, listening to music, doing nothing, daydreaming
How does character spend a rainy day? Generally doing college work, though during free time, will sit around listening to music and spacing out, as long as he’s sure no one is watching

BACKGROUND:
Hometown: London, England
Type of Childhood: Spent most of his childhood studying hard from a young age
Education: Grades 1-8 at Belland Academy, grades 9~12 at Northsamp Academy with courses at Cambridge, accepted to Yale and currently a sophomore

FAMILY:
Mother: Avari Skye; world-famous fashion designer and model
Relationship with her: Generally good; she is very proud of him and has been teaching him art; he resents her slightly because of the pressure always put on him
Father: Ajax Ride; professor of chemistry at Cambridge University
Relationship with him: Generally good; he is very proud of him and encourages his pursual in engineering; Alexias resents him slightly because of the pressure always put on him
Siblings: None

PERSONALITY:
To put it simply, repressed. Becuase of the high expectations his parents have set for him, he's developed a fairly reserved, hidden personality. Most of the time he is extremely mild, doing whatever he can to fulfil his parents wishes and presenting himself as a pleasant young man to soceity: polite, cheerful, thoughtful, intelligent, capable, et cetera. However, inside, he cares little for the path that his parents have set for him, and wishes to do more things that he enjoys. He usually keeps this different, more relaxed and comfortable side of himself hidden for when he's alone, and is always concious of how others view him, eager to live up to his parents' dreams.

ALLICANCE:
None. Having ended up in Wonderland quite unexpectedly, he's rather lost and without a place.

NOTES:
The main character. I've somewhat emulated him after myself in some aspects, which I think will play a pretty fun role later on in the story. As a side note, I think his favorite food is adorable. Strawberries with cream, how much cuter can you get?

BACKGROUND:
Hometown: Beast Sector, Wonderland
Type of childhood: Unknown
Education: ???

PERSONALITY:
A mystery, if nothing else. He is generally quite pleasant, speaking politely, if a little too casually, smiling in his usual, cheerful way and making many comments on mundane things like the weather. However, he is also quite quick to make some rather morbid comments, and will not hesitate to point out the truth, no matter how disgusting it may be. His hobby seems to be to watch others and gather informtaion, but he rarely releases this information to others, merely smilng to the world in the strange way of his way. And should the conversation ever turn to him, he'll quickly change the subject back to something else, never missing a beat. Able to vanish and appear among the shadows like a ghost, he's a phantom in both existance and identity, mysterious and veiled.

ALLIANCE
No clear alliance. He usually lounges around the Crimson Brim base, but doesn't help them much, except for throwing out some ambiguous points of information.

NOTES:
The easiest to design, amusingly enough. His skull helmet was a little tricky, but I like how it turned out. He's not quite as shallow as first seems, though, and I'm hoping he'll develop nicely through the story.

As a side note, the full versions of the preview pics are my icons~ XD

That is all for now~ Hopefully, I'll be able to get the rest of these profiles up before the start of November! :O
