Character Intro - Cassiopeia Tithus

════════════════════════════════════════════

☆ ・・About/General Info ・・☆

A genius young inventor, Cassiopeia - or Cassie, as she's usually called - has always had a knack for robot engineering, making her first robots out of scrap metal in a junkyard when she was just a little kid. She's the younger sister of Jack Tithus, her older brother and only guardian, who raised her alone after they were orphaned. Cassie has a big heart and an undyingly optimistic outlook in life - always looking for the fun and good side of things, even when there is practically none. She is a key character in this story, and the secrets encrypted into her blood are tied to one of the main plot twists of this book series!

Pronouns - She/her Age - 18 Current Role - Part of the main cast Appearance - Cassie has medium to long curly dark brown hair, which she usually paints/streaks in different shades of blue and purple, a habit she has had ever since she was a little kid. She's around 5,3ft or 161cm, and while she is rather slim she is also surprisingly strong. Her usual outfit consists of a colorful T-shirt with a fun print, oversized - often in neon hues - hoodies, cargo pants with flashy belts, and a pair of old purple sneakers. She always wears her half of the trinket necklace, which matches the half she gave to Jack as a gift.

🧊 - Is their current design the first one?

🍀 - What originally inspired the OC?

Thank you for the Ask @saturnine-saturneight! Since we were talking about my WIP Supernova Initiative earlier today, I'll go with characters from that WIP for this one!

🧊 - Is their current design the first one?

JACK - Jack Tithus' design has changed a bit from the first one/original idea. Overall, his clothing styles, height, and general appearance have indeed remained similar, but there were quite a few changes. The main difference is that he originally had short dark brown hair, and now he has a medium-length asymmetrical bob and his hair is bright auburn. There were a few reasons why I changed his original design:

For some reason, my brain refused to imagine him with brown hair, and every time I envisioned him he had dark auburn hair;

His first design didn't seem to match his personality well - he is a very flashy guy, so I don't think a traditional short haircut would be really his style, so I changed his haircut to a longer asymmetrical bob (with an undercut),

I wanted to differentiate Jack - who is the Main Character - from some other characters in the crew who would also have brown hair (namely Aleks, who has dark hazel brown hair, and Artemis, who has dark brown/light black hair).

GABI - Gabi's design actually didn't change that much from when I first envisioned her. She is one of those characters that have been really clear to be from the first concept that led to the creation of the character. She has long brown hair, which she often streaks red or pink, but never fully. She also usually wears practical clothes in a style similar to our Earth's 'grunge', with a futuristic/cyberpunk twist - but she also often has bright, girly accessories that she is very proud of. Generally, I think that her design has remained largely the same ever since I created this character.

VESPER - Vesper is one of those characters that changed A LOT throughout the development of the story. Originally, she wasn't even a cyborg, nor a lethal assassin on the path to revenge. Her original concept was as a secret agent for the Junction who had been betrayed/abandoned by a loved one. However, that idea didn't stick with the character and that concept instead gave origin to Noctus (who is a secret agent working for the Junction and has a past he does not remember), while I reworked Vesper into a completely different character. I scratched the idea of her siding with the Junction entirely, and instead made her a lethal enemy of the regime: she's now a Khosmonian - whose homeworld was raided under the behest of the Junction for refusing to comply - and a girl who wants revenge for the brutal death of her older brother (which she witnessed) and the disappearing of her mother, who likely died in the bombings of her planet. She is a Vorzar by birth (an alien species native to the planet of Luk'tih) but turned herself into a cyborg in order to become deadlier and semi-immortal (she's tougher to be killed, and can regenerate easily) in a way.

🍀 - What originally inspired the OC?

(Vague Inspiration/Vibes)

JACK - Poe Dameron (Star Wars), Robin Hood (the folk tale), and Nightwing (DC). Jack is a charismatic leader with a heart of gold who would do anything to keep his team safe, even if it means being self-sacrificial (much like all three of those characters). he also uses stealing as a way to rebel against the rich and powerful (kind of like a space-opera version of Robin Hood). He also has a strong spite against authority and is willing to take reckless risks in the name of what he considers right, characteristics all three of those characters possess!

GABI - Ellie Williams (The Last of Us TV Show), Vi (Arcane), and Hawks (MHA). Gabi is a fierce girl with a strong personality, a stubborn nature, and sometimes a fiery temper (much like Ellie and Vi). She also does not shy away from a fight and is quite good at it to be honest. Gabi also likes adventure, and doing things she's not supposed to do just for the thrills. She's also outgoing, charismatic, rebellious, and can be quite good at manipulating people in power to get what she wants.

VESPER - Arya Stark (GOT), Black Widow (Marvel), Kaz Brekker (Six of Crows). Vesper is a vicious alien assassin with a brutal past who "upgraded" herself with priceless tech to hunt down the people responsible for the deaths of her family, and who also has a strict moral compass and secretly cares a lot for her friends. Pretty much like those three characters too.

Character Intro - Deimos Soll

This is a character introduction for Jack Tithus, one of the main protagonists of my WIP Supernova Initiative!

☆ ・・About/General Info ・・☆

The deadliest sniper in the entire galaxy, Deimos was Jack and Cassie's first crew member and their adoptive brother, who grew up with the duo in the ruthless streets of Cethea III. He grew estranged from his siblings a couple of years before the main story, and eventually left the crew to pursue a solo career as a sniper and work more actively to aid the rebellion efforts against the Junction - as of the beginning of the main plot, he and his siblings are unexpectedly reunited and must begrudgingly work together once more in what quite possibly is the deadliest heist of their lives. And much to their surprise, rekindle the bond they once had as a trio.

════════════════════════════════════════════

☆・・More Info ・・☆

Pronouns - He/Him Age - 26 Current Role - Narrative Foil to Jack & is also a Deuteragonist Appearance - Deimos has long, dark blue hair which he usually keeps tied into a neat bun or ponytail. He is incredibly tall when compared to his human peers, standing at around 7ft or 213cm. He is very lanky and thin, not having much in the matter of sheer strength, which he compensates with his remarkable speed and agility. His style is usually impeccable, the space-version of casual chic for sure. His go-to attire is a (literally) bullet-proof white robe with white pants, a charcoal black hooded cloak, and leather boots (I showcased his outfit in this tag, as well as the outfits of some other members of the crew).

Personality Types -

✶ Enneagram: 1w9

✶ MBTI: INTJ

Occupation: Sniper/Assassin/Sharpshooter, intergalactic thief, mercenary, gun for hire. Species & Place of Birth: Zatrian (alien), Ivion. Sexuality: Bisexual but often leaning more towards straight, depending on his mood.

WIP Anagram Game

Thanks for the tag @drchenquill (here)!

I'll go with my WIPs Supernova Initiative and The Forgotten Ones!

Rules: You will be given a word, and you must share 1 sentence from your WIP/s that starts with each letter in that word!

My word is: BATTLE

B (The Forgotten Ones, Ch. 1) - But only for a moment, before the fire in his eyes faded out into worry.

A (Supernova Initiative, Ch. 2) - At the moment, the three of them were making their way down a busy inner street in the center of the settlement, the perpetually dust-grey sky lit up by the neon lights of the myriad of shops, eateries, and clubs scattered around and into a maze of side streets

T (The Forgotten Ones, Ch. 1) - The stern, matter-of-fact voice of her half-brother was the first she could hear.

T (Supernova Initiative, Ch. 1) - Turning a corner around a quieter part of the slums, he made his way to the local junkyard.

L (Supernova Initiative, Ch. 1) - “Look, we kinda…stumbled into you - not literally, but y’know what I mean - and you looked like you needed help. You seem pretty hurt…”

E (Supernova Initiative, Ch. 3) - Even though she knew she wasn't supposed to come here, Gabi was giddy at the sheer concept of finally stepping into this place - especially unsupervised.

What emotion is the hardest for your OC to process? How about express?

Thank you so much for the ask, @kaylinalexanderbooks!

I'll go with the cast of Supernova Initiative for this one! Since I wanna do something different/unique and I love using songs to inspire myself when it comes to writing characters, I'll link some of those songs to illustrate my answers! (:

Jack Tithus:

Hardest to process: Betrayal. Jack is an extremely loyal friend, and though he is no stranger to betrayal and people who screw others over, his knee-jerk reaction to these kinds of situations - especially when the betrayal comes from a friend rather than a stranger - is to think "what did I do wrong?". Like, he considers it a failure on his part to not have noticed something like that was about to happen.

Hardest to express: Vulnerability. Jack is a very self-sacrificial guy, who tends to be rather stoic about his true feelings and how much he is suffering, for the sake of keeping his sister happy and his friend's sake. He's very good at pretending everything is okay and maintaining his usual unfazed, charming, and happy self, and feels like a burden whenever he needs to ask for help.

I think that a song that illustrates this aspect of Jack's personality very well is Strong For Somebody Else by Citizen Soldier.

(Strong for Somebody Else) "My personal hell, I'll bury it, bury it Weight of the world, I'll carry it, carry it Pile it all on, I've gotta be strong For somebody, for somebody Put my pain in a pill, I'll swallow it, swallow it Too numb to feel, I'm hollow, I'm hollow I have to hold on, I've gotta be strong For somebody, for somebody Somebody else"

Deimos Soll

Hardest to process: Shame. Deimos has a serious low self-esteem issue, which he masks behind an aura of arrogance. His feelings of low self-worth have haunted him since he was a kid. Due to his past traumas, Deimos is terrified of failure, which also makes him terrified of the feelings of shame that are tied to failure - he is viscerally terrified of humiliation. He is a perfectionist and strives to be the best at every single thing he does, and misguidedly thinks that if he "can't remain the best" then he "isn't worth anything at all".

I think two songs that fit this facet of his very well are Gladiator by Jann and Shame! Shame! Shame! by Reinaeiry

(Gladiator) "I know your addiction's attention, let's start a show Is it everything and more than you were hoping for? Show us something we ain't never seen before Smash your competition, baby Show us some good entertainment Victory's your only payment Gladiator, gladiator"

(Shame! Shame! Shame!) "Where does it end And where do I begin? Is there something to blame? At the end of the day The end result's the same Oh, Shame! Shame! Shame! Keep it to yourself Don't sully the family name"

Hardest to express: Remorse. Partially due to his extreme perfectionism, Deimos has an unfortunate tendency to get defensive whenever he does something wrong - it's an unconscious impulse, practically. He doesn't like to admit something that went wrong is his fault because that would mean he did something imperfectly or that he made a mistake, which then circles back to those feelings of shame he dreads.

Kye Thalax

Hardest to process: Lack of Control/Frustration. Kye doesn't like when things don't go his way, nor does he like when a situation is out of his control. He's been deprived of feelings of agency for so long, that now that he has that agency he doesn't want to lose it ever again. This means he can often be quite frazzled with trying to keep everything within the range of what he can control because chaos - as far as he knows - only means pain. This also makes him incredibly easy to frustrate as he is dealing with too many things at the same time and neglects the management of his own feelings. I think the song Control by Halsey, fits this side of his personality quite a lot.

(Control) "I can't help this awful energy Goddamn right, you should be scared of me Who is in control? I paced around for hours on empty I jumped at the slightest of sounds And I couldn't stand the person inside me I turned all the mirrors around"

Hardest to express: Affection. It's not that he's not a good person. Deep down he is. He has empathy and secretly cares more than he realizes. But he is a bit emotionally stunted and paranoid that everyone who gets close to him is going to hurt him eventually and that it's only a matter of time before he is betrayed. So he has developed a prickly personality that lashes out at the first sign of trouble in order to not risk trusting the wrong person again. This also means that, for most of his interactions, he can be quite superficial, petty, and often selfish - until he realizes he actually does care for the person he is interacting with, which takes a long while. He yearns for affection and attention but does not know how to verbalize that need out of fear of being used or betrayed. Living Hell by Bella Poarch

(Living Hell) "You know I don't believe in ghosts or Letting people close I'm good at letting go You kiss my lips until they're colder Think you're in control, but I should let you know Well, the good guys don't always get the glory Can't you see the warning signs?"
