Name: Glitch

Pronouns: it/its or any/all really

Genre: Cyberpunk?

The gist: Glitch is kind of my net-sona that I use in some cases. But it also has a story, because who am I if not a maladaptive OC maker. It's originally Cyberpunk 2077-based.
It is a rogue AI that got curious about the human world instead of outright destroying/controlling/challenging it. Eventually it found a ripperdoc (a cyber implants mechanic) who was just the right amount of reckless to give it a chance and build it a body out of spare parts. Now it walks around the city and the net equally, posing as a chromed-up merc in one and a weird glitch in another.

I've been relating to the concept of a glitch and of a non-meat cyborg a lot lately, likely by the virtue of being depersonalized away from my body one too often. So, when I'm not feeling like humaning as myself - I have Glitch. Or Glitch has me.

Name: Oak

Pronouns: she/her

TTRPG: D&D homebrew

Race: Human

Age: 20-something

Class: Barbarian Berserker

Background: Soldier

Story revealed so far goes as such: An ex-military deserter who hides her face (and everything else too, really) at all times. Jury is out if this is for her own safety as a deserter, safety of others (same reason) or if she was just scarred by the war so much she prefers to hide it. She's fine with either option. Keep them guessing.

Is currently travelling with two other adventurers in a team they aptly named Three Oomph.

Pronouns: she/her

TTRPG: Dragon Age

Race: Human

Age: 21

Class: Warrior

Name: Wisteria

Pronouns: she/her

TTRPG: D&D oneshots

Race: Human

Age: 22-ish

Class: Fistfighter (homebrew)

Background: Criminal

Name: Riley Burke

TTRPG: Vampire the Masquerade

Clan: Gangrel (if her sire catches her runaway ass)

Age: 24 (freshly turned)

More: A punk who couldn't hold a stable job or a proper appartment. Dice loves her so far, and so does rule of cool. Got bitten by a hot butch at a drunk threesome, upon turning managed to fight the sire off and run away by stealing the aforementioned sire's car while fully naked. Next session she knocked a Camarilla representative out with a yeeted beer bottle to the head and stole ANOTHER car.

This is a story that I share with a co-writer, which makes it hard to tell which characters count as "mine". Therefore I'm only putting one that's 100% my creation and her girlfriend who's also mostly my fault.

Name: Fira

Pronouns: she/her

Race: Human

Age: 25

Occupation: Ex-merc, current knight and commander of the Ice Kingdom

Spirit affiliation: Fire (regent)

Story: Daughter of a local miller in a small provincial town. From birth she was shy, cowardly and not very bright in the common sense of the world. When an evil Ice Queen allegedly stole her best friend in a blizzard they both got lost in, Fira became scared of winter, refused to go outside, missed school and fell behind. Eventually she faced her fear in the most reckless manner possible - by continuously making herself to go out in the worst of the weathers and almost freezing to death on several occasions. Getting rid of the fear and not caring much for catching up with education Fira worked as a shepherd for local farmers. One day the pasture got attacked by wolves and the girl killed two of them with a knife, which got her widely celebrated in town. However, the next time the same thing happened, those were human thieves instead of wolves, and everyone quickly came to understand that Fira crossed the line from an awkward coward straight into a mildly unhinged killer somehow. People came to fear her, and eventually she left the town and made her name as mercenary called "Fury". Along her travels she also made contanct with the Fire spirit of the land and its chosen, future king Solair, who made her the spirit's regend (a sub-chosen, if you will), which made Fira's contracts that much more... fiery. Through all of this, however, there was one thing the now young woman couldn't get off of her mind: finding the Ice Queen and taking revenge for her lost friend.

Name: Sagar

Pronouns: she/her

Race: Merfolk

Age: 29

Occupation: Advisor to the Water Kingdom, recently an Ambassador for the Ice Kingdom on behalf of the Water Queen.

Spirit affiliation: Water (regent)

Story: Sagar is the oldest child of a big, but poor merfolk family, where she spent most of her child and teen years looking after many brothers and sisters. Their family lived in a poor sector of a trade city in the South, far away from big bodies of water and suffering from the constant heat. Always dreaming about seeing the sea one day, Sagar spent every free minute at local river (or, if not free, then doing laundry). Her kind, compassionate and caring nature caught the attention of the Water spirit from far away, who then made her its regent without asking the current chosen much. Queen of Water had no choice but to move the girl and her whole family to the Isles, where Sagar became her advisor, assistant and somewhat of an outlet for every bad mood and complaint. Bearing in mind that her whole family could be hurt or made to leave, the young woman beared the storm stoically and did all she could to steer the Queen in kinder directions. That's until at some point said Queen tried to attack the ruler of the Ice Kingdom in an ambush that almost turned out horribly for everyone involved... Which shook the satus quo quite a bit.

Name: Alexis Elmers

Pronouns: she/her

Age: 26

Occupation: School teacher

Magic: None registered

More: A loveable and 'hip with the kids' teacher Alex also plays football in her free time, which is how she got landed in a hospital with a concussion. Now she spends half of her braincells on flirting with a cute doctor, begging her childhood-and-current best friend to wingwoman her (the friend is not amused) and the rest, well, on still being hip with the kids.

Name: Jay Shaw

Pronouns: she/her

Age: 27

Occupation: Neurologist

Magic: Healing

Story: Sometimes your work days are relatively uneventful, and sometimes there's a gal with a bruised mug trying to flirt with you on the clock. What's worse, eventually you find it endearing - especially when she moves it off work hours. Now Jay just has to decide if this agent of chaos is something she needs in her stable boring and somewhat lonely life...

Name: Skye

Pronouns: she/her

Age: Late twenties?

Occupation: Smuggler

Story: An ex-child soldier who made it out alive from a situation no one was supposed to get out of. After shaking off (or so she hopes) a literal lifetime of brainwashing, she's currently working as a smuggler, travelling around the land on odd jobs. On one of which her bike gets broken down irreparably and she has to hire a local chick who has an airplane. A very obnoxious chick, might she add.

Name: Jane Knox

Pronouns: she/her

Age: 24

Occupation: Pilot

Story: Used to be in a corporate military-ish unit, but really she just wanted to fly. Which meant that one day she's just made it off with her (technically now stolen) plane she calls Jake. Very anxious, dislikes people, treasures her plane and her piloting liscense above literally everything else. Planes are better than people. Planes she can fix. Until she runs out of money for spare parts and some tottal asshole of a merc offers to pay for them as long as she gives her a lift...

Well, maybe the asshole is kind of hot and also genuinely regrets the fuck up, but she'll only be able to consider those points after quite a few moons.
