@emily-waldorf lol Misu’s had too deal with all sorts of people so I think he’ll be fine! I’m really looking forward to these interactions too, but fair warning – I don’t know how much longer he’s going to be in here 🙁 I have some other characters that I’m wanting to develop, but I don’t plan on pulling him out anytime soon, so we’re good for now!
A little heads up, Misu likes to revert back to his human form after revealing himself (he really just wants to fit in with everyone else and be friends with all of the humans – he learned that the hard way with poor Liorah lol). I’m not sure how much you already know about him, so here’s a little description: In his human form, Misu appears to be East Asian, he’s medium-height/ever so slightly on the tall side, and right now he’s wearing a cream turtleneck/trousers and a pale blue overcoat. I think he has a sword, but he hasn’t used it yet, so I don’t really know about that one…
What do Quin and Qatar look like? And what kind of setting are they from? Misu is from a dystopian sci-fi/fantasy thing 🙂
Also, Quin has been tugging at my heartstrings this whole time 🙁 Poor little guy!
@rose-colored-fancy YEE I’M BACK!!! Aaaand this is exactly why Misu is one of my favorite characters lol. He’s so sweet, and so fun to write!
@denali-christianson That’s so cool! I’ve definitely related to fictional characters before, but often more because we share similar flaws…
I have to say, Gandalf is probably one of my top favorites, especially after reading about his backstory! Have you read the Silmarillion? It’s definitely different from LotR, but it offers a ton of insight into Middle Earth’s current situation, and the worldbuilding is just *chef’s kiss*
What’s the current character limit in here? I have a couple of characters I want to develop more, but I’m not ready to pull Misu out quite yet…
Also, does anyone in here do this thing where they have an interesting character they really like from an existing work who doesn’t get developed that much, so you just
stealuhhh create a new character who just happens to have the same personality, character flaws, and appearance so you can mess with their development and kind of make them your own? This is something I actually do rather frequently *side eyes Misu* and I may have a character that I may or may not have stolen from one of my existing favorites today so I thought I would ask before I stick him in here lol
