Just a thing that I have been thinking about for a while. I have had this intense hobby, if you will. One that involves two OCs of mine. But context is needed.
I used to love playing Genshin Impact, and I especially loved the Fatui Harbingers, especially Il Dottore and Pantalone. Alas, soon I slowly stopped playing the game and following the lore. I still love some fanfiction of my ship to this day, but I needed something else. Something that aligned with my wishes. So I made my own characters loosely based on Dottore and Pantalone.
Harvey Burne is a chemist/engineer who adores science ever since he was a child in foster care. He was able to push through his depression and manage his unfulfilling job while studying to make it where he is now. Harvey is knowledgeable but egotistical, and he likes a few other things like puzzles, growing moss, and gear collecting. He is just mostly consumed in his job, leading him to often neglect his physical and mental health.
Robert Hilton is a financier who enjoys his wealthy life and is far from his past, homeless self. Despite having to abandon his twin brother, Robert was able to work his way up the corporate ladder and achieve his dreams. Robert is charismatic but manipulative, and does hobbies such as coin collecting, writing, and antiquing. Robert continues to work hard, wanting to gain more and more, leading him to overwork himself.
The two are forced to work together, leading to a slow burn, enemies to lovers situation. One that I to not have the ability to write.
Forgive my rather long post, I just wanted to share this. In summary, I made two OCs based on a ship I liked and I will never use them beyond roleplay, short stories, and daydreams. Have I answered over 250 character profile questions for these two character? Yes. Have I re-did their entire character profiles three times now? Yes. Have I answered a 250 plus character interview in character for each of them? Well, only for Harvey, but you get the point. I believe I made these characters two years ago, and my interest has not gone away. Faded, yes, but it still lingers.
This turned into a rant, I suppose. Let's get back on topic, do you have any OCs you have made that you are mostly just using for solely your own enjoyment?
