Character Name meme thing

Postby teh hchano » Fri Sep 11, 2009 10:21 am

if anyone else is bored...


Write out the names of your characters and explain
1) how you thought of their name
2) what made you create the character in the first place
3) how the character has changed over time (if they have changed)
4) any random fun fact about that character




I am gonna do the main chara to each of my stories XD



Vix from d*s!!
1)
Vix's name came from a book called Summer Sisters XD I thought the name was adorable xD

2)
I made her for an old Vampire RP called 'VENACK'... but once that RP died, I was all attatched
so she kind of evolved into a new character and storyline.

3)
LOL. Well at first she was a really hyper, obnoxious and naive vampire character. She was
extremely clingy to her vampire friends and was the one of the group who was always innocent
and stuff... [the vampire coven was pretty...evil LOL]. After that RP died, she became a bit
more mature and angsty cos she no longer had her 'family' =( ...and then we have the current
version, who is not a vampire, and is quite a bit stronger than her older incarnations. She is
more mature and thoughtful and more playful as well [esp around jo or arlie].

4)
She secretly loves watching soap operas...but she'd never admit to it.




Gwen from Atrabolus!! [tho she shares the main chara spotlight with others lol]
1)
Just coincidentally through adoration of Gwen Stafani and awkward AOL screen-naming
[GwenS2000 -- why the 2000? i dunno.] ... though her name was like Gwendolynn Silver or
something horrible to explain the S when I RP'd her. Her name now is Gweneth Zephaniah xD

2)
I just happened to discover RP rooms on AOL one day while on my GwenS2000 SN, and it
seemed like fun at the time, so I began RPing a character named Gwen. Simple as that. Lol.
Obviously, she was my first real character, aside from random Lion King ones lol...

3)
Oh gosh. She's gone through soo many changes. She started out as like... a wannabe
Catwoman. She could change into a cat at will lol. That was her power. >>; Then I think
around the time I ran into Matt, who was RPin' Az, we both got into like..dragons for
some reason or other, so they both could turn into dragons and be bad ass and stuff...
and that was her power at that time.. lol. She eventually became just a mage tho...
She is an elemental mage these days.

4)
Most of her life she's been a bit of a tom boy, mostly cos chicks aren't really
taught magic. She had to pretend to be a guy to learn magic.... So sometimes
she will do very mannish things, like spit grossly or start fist fights. She is a
bit hotheaded lol.




Karasu [julian] from LiR!!
1)
I don't even remember where I got the name Karasu. I think I had looked
up Jap names back in the day and liked that one...means Crow or something.
xD ... Julian, I got from a guy my sister used to date. I like how the name sounds.

2)
Durr. Kara's origins are sort of gay LOL. He started out as a reincarnation of Vix
in the Venack comic. 9_9 It was basically an excuse to draw shounen ai with Brayden
[who had also been reincarnated, as a guy named trent lol]. When I scrapped the
Venack story, I kept him [and trent] in a little box in case I wanted to use them..

3)
Like I said, he started out as an excuse for Shounenai and is now...well...still
sort of that, but also not?? LOL. He has become more guyish, and is a werewolf
this time around. Other than that, he is generally the same as his original self.

4)
Guy is a total anime nerd, which is why he is called 'Karasu'... it's like his
online handle and nickname.




Moia from 8mm!!
1)
She used to be called Moira, but it sounded to rough. There is no real
origin to her name other than that.

2)
She was made for an RP, like most of my characters, but I never RP'd
her much...

3)
Originally, she was a pirate woman, back when I called her Moira. I
then revamped her for another RP, as a werewolf and sister to my friend's
chara. She has been a hitwoman for most of her existence, that much is
always the same, but I have ditched her werewolfness. She is just a
human woman these days, though a fucking badass one.

4)
She's black, yo.

Rinhelyd (from The Blood-tinged Stone, which I will never finish writing =P)
1) I stuck my name into one of those stupid LotR elf name generator things and it came up with Rinheled I think, tho it was for a male. However, I really liked the name a lot, and changed it a little to look cooler (IMO...) and decided to use it for a character I had been thinking about.
2) I tend to tell myself stories to put myself to sleep (something I picked up from my mom in my childhood and still do...), and this kinda started out as a LotR fan type story after I saw the first movie, but it evolved a lot over time, and really has nothing to do with LotR now... cept there're elves??
3) Rin started out blonde w/blue eyes I think. She really didn't have much of a background story at the time, but I knew I wanted her to fall in love with a human guy. Later, she had blond hair that had green tips, and now it's just green!
4) She likes to be nekkid?

Marue (from uhhh her short story that I've never written)
1)Hmmm this one took me awhile, I had the story all worked out and needed a cute Japanese name to use for her character. I kinda liked the name Narue from Narue no Sekai, so I just kinda changed it a little. It's pronounced Mah-roo-eh, btw... not MAROOOOOO
2)Her story just kinda came to me while driving or something, it's fairly dark and has an angel in it! I swear I will write it one day....
3)She hasn't really changed a whole lot, as this is one of my newer stories (as in like, 3 years... lol). I think her hairstyle has had a few changes and her school uniform as well.
4) hmmmmm

Teihana (from unnamed sci-fi-ish story)
1)Blargh, this one took many incarnations, first her name was Tehara, then it changed to Aubrinna?? for awhile and now it's closer to the original again with Teihana. I'm not really sure where I got the original name from, or the more recent ones... just kinda worked them out over time I think...
2)This story came to me while I was at AX one year (probly 5-6 years ago), I saw this neat-looking futuristic glass dome in my head while I was dreaming (seriously!) and developed a story around it being a school in the future. I wanted the main character to have a similar personality to my own, unlike Rin who is quite different. I also had an idea about color-changing hair ribbons that I thought it would be cool for her to have. I did write a few chapters of her story a few years ago, but really hated how it came out so I stopped. This story would probably work best in comic form, so if my drawing ever improves enough to do something like that, I would consider it.
3)Well, besides the name, I think her hair has changed some (became shorter) and her skin got a little more tan-colored.
4)Her school has very interesting plans for the students...

Well, that's all the main characters to my 3 "stories", I may post more later...

I wanna read the sci fi one!! :"< it sounds interesting.


I'll do another chara I guess, since I am replying. LOL






Dahlia from FHSFHSJFHJSJFSJFSH!! [no title for her story LOL]
1)
I am pretty sure that the movie 'the black dahlia' had come out around
the time I made her and in the first pic I drew of her...she was wearing
all black, so I was like..TEH BLACK DAHLIA LOL!! I never saw that movie
but...ty @ it for the name?!?

2)
She was made to be the twin of my friend's chara, Raiy, cos I always thought
that Raiy was a hottie and wanted an excuse to draw her more. LOL

3)
Uhmmm. She actually hasn't changed too much. I draw her a bit older than I
did when I first made her, and her hair is a bit more refined 8D??? The actual
character has always been about the same; airheaded, sort of vain, and very
cheerful for the most part... at least for the beginning of her little storyline...

4)
SPOILERS: she turns into the bad guy, in the story in my head. Lol.

lolololololo. Vel's not in any of my stories tho. K's the one using her...even tho
she doesn't update that story ever. *RAGE*

But since you asked nicely, here is Vel:


Velisto from Batalha Nova!!
1)
Velociraptor + Callisto [xena] = Velisto. Simple as that. Although when I googled
the name years later, it turns out that it's actually a city in Russia?! AMAZING.

2)
She was created for an AOL chatroom called Raptor Rain Forest. LOL. She
has changed...drastically since then. xDD

3)
Originally, Vel was a PURPLE SNOUT[lawwlll] Utahraptor for the RRF RP
group. During that time, she was the most violent raptor in the SL and
was pretty much feared by most of the RPers [or at least their charas,
since she was notorious for killing, or at least wounding, any who got
on her damn nerves]... when I stopped RPing in RRF, Vel the raptor
totally died. I recreated her for a sci-fi RP, called Batalha Nova. In
it, she's a programmer, and one of the key coders[?] for the most
advanced AI of the current time. She's still got the old temper, but
she doesn't start fights too much, since she's got the physique of
a 13 year old girl [re: she is puny].

4)
She is blind, but wears goggles that allow her to 'see'...much like
GEORDI in STAR TREK, though at the time I never had seen ST so
I didn't even know it was something that already existed lolol.

And yes, in the RRF, she had a brother who was originally a
normal utahraptor, but randomly the guy playing him decided
his chara ought to have a vag as well as a peen, although to
this day, I don't understand why anyone would want to know
anything about raptor genetalia.

Also, he was always trying to hit on Vel. ON HIS SISTER.
ONIICHAN IYAAAAAA. No seriously, fuck off.

kjsdafkj. I love hearing about all of your characters 8((((.
omigosh.
Hchan you have so manyyy sdjghakgjh xDD lmfao.
butilovethemall. Just laksdgjak reading about them makes me want to draw them all.

Same with yours Jeni ;0; great characters.
I haven't read your story yet but I definitely need to.
loveloveloveeeeeeeeeeeee.

I.... I will do some of mine too ;=;

UMMM. main characters i guess?

Raiy from ????? (it started out as Rainbow Under the Moon, but since then not really)

1) THE ORIGIN OF HER NAME IN WEIRD. It was way back in middle school when a friend of mine gave me kind of an anime nick name, Raiyn. And I ended up really liking it and ended up sticking it to Raiy when I first made her. I basically just knocked the n off because I liked the way the name sounded better.

2) Originally I had created Raiy as an Inuyasha character when I was in middle school. I was really into that show back then lol. And I've always been too attached to her to really let her go.

3) LOL GOD. A MILLION CHANGES. As far as APPEARANCE, she started out with like.... really long steretypical styled long hair that was white with back tips. and she had a little star birthmark on her cheek. Also her black ears and tail were tipped with white. This actually carried through when I started playing her with Yoh and stuff, until I watched ROD and I really liked this one characters hair. The blond secretary, and I basically copied that hair and added on these little baby pink ends to make her have strawberry blond. And slowly her hair kept evolving from there. She's kept her blondness but right now I sort of am keeping it in the cooler spectrum. But mostly because I think it's like, as she grows up and matures it changes. And her ears and tail stopped being white tipped because basically no one really drew her with them XD so i just kind of gave up. And she also started out as a wolf demon, where she turned into this more complicated kind of dog persona. (I haven't decided if her story is sci-fi or alt universe yet haha) Raiys face birthmark ended up moving to somewhere on her torso, and it's three stars in a diagonal. Ummm as far as her personality goes I can't really remember too much about her in the beginning, I think that i wanted to start her out as sort of that stoic mature character (LOL) but she ended up being kind of goody and playful. And then when she ended up hanging out with Yoh she turned into a tomboy basically, she got very prideful and still maintained a lot of her general playfullness. But slowly she started turning into a more mature character, she's just pretty chill and like, whatever :') but still v v playful. She also is less of a Tomboy, she can still be one at times though. And.... uh...stories??? She went from like.... inuyasha rp, to RUM with yoh, and then to something else... lol idk. The inuyasha story I just got tired of really quickly, it was just very boring. But Raiy was basically like, this demon hunter or something with yoh, for awhile in RUM and stuff. And they lmfao were like... these stereotypical schoolgirls and everything. But for some reason me and yoh gave yoh a genderswap ? _ ?.... uh.... lol.... so Yoh and Raiy started being a couple (and always will beee!!!!) And then the story, as far as I know started to grow up at little too. I actually got all detailed into a lot of things. Like what the different species were and everything. And there was a lot of stuff with her dad who is this big evil guy or something.

(not to mention boy raiy. who is basically his entirely own person)
this turned into an essay... sorry guys 8(

4) Raiy's favorite thing to do is go surfing. She skips school a lot to just go to the beach and do this. (raiy and yoh live on sort of an island kind of place)
UMMM. Raiy's wings are like, this hilariously evil omen, and in the story they usually take the form of these tattoo like birthmarks. And most people if they have them can make them physical, and even use them and stuff. But raiy's wings never really came out. And they also were on her lower back which seems kind of odd and useless. But as she got older, they started coming out, but they were these really itty bitty tiny baby butterfly wings. (she doesn't show anyone these because lmfao... it would be bad I guess?). I mean, since I don't have much of a story to go off of, basically she goes crazy, and then her wings are all big and stuff. And she is all like, epic doom or something IDK. her dad has them also, he is just a more controlled version of epic doom.

Billie from Burning Shadows (lol i came up with that last night.)

1) I don't remember where I found her name........ but it basically stayed the same???

2) I made her for the rp over at the other forum. I don't remember what the name of it was. lol.

3) Billie... used to be just kind of boycrazy (arion-crazy really)..... she was kind of a weak character in general, even though i TRIED to change it, it didn't necessarily work to well. She was just kind of a dependant character. And she started out as a werewolf, and then was a werewolf/vampire mix somehow, and now she is back to a werewolf :00!!!! not to mention she started out with short blonde hair with pink bangs and how she is a BRUNETTE WITH PINK BANGS.

4) She likes to drink.... she can drink most heavy drinkers under the table. lmfao. And she still likes to club hop and such. But probably her favorite place is the forest and stuff, because she gets to hang out in her wolf form and everything.

Myron from Grip like a Vice

1) Basically, in highschool, i was in english class. and we had these like groups, where our tables were all pushed together, and everyone was p cool there. So i told them to give me a list of names and myron was on it??? It wasn't that long ago... and it's also probably not going to change,

2) LMFAO. I was basically talking to hillary and she told me to make a story where the girl was all topping the guy. in the relationship. LOL. and he sort of evolved from there LMFAO.

3) Well... he sort of just started out as a pointless highschool kid. But then he became a hitman in my story i guess. He also used to have consistently lame longish hair. But then somehow it was cut??? He also has ended up having glasses but i never draw them.

4) Myron likes to play the guitar?? he is very good at music.


Dante from Number Nine

1)UMM. Basically... he was this italian guy... and he needed an italian name. And I always really liked Dante. It is just a very sexy name in general.

2) Sienna, another main character from GLAV, basically needed a father. So Dante was created to sort of be this person :00 he ended up being one of my fav characters.

3) UMMM. There were no real major changes I guess. He ended up having his own little story though because I liked him so well.

4) He's bisexual.

Camille from Ghost Girl

1) Basically, hillary suggested they everything in the story be pretty frenchy... so I looked up some french names and Camille really stood out to me.

2) I wanted a banner for my livejournal... and I really wanted to personify my screen name haha XD 'phantombones' so she came out i guess the way she did :0 lol.

3) UM. I think that the major changed would be that she generally has shorter hair?? and just a lot of refining happened. Nothing really huge. This is a fairly recent development so XDD haha idk.

4) She has this heat fetish... and her boyfriend is sort of a fire spirit.... :") they have some interesting sex?

I suggested Billie! XD I had wanted to use it for someone at the time but didn't feel
like making a chara, so I suggested it to you :'D I got the idea from Billie Holiday,
cos I'd recently watched a movie about her haha.

GD, guess I will post another. LOL. I have enough charas so it's not like a big
deal...


Jo from d*s!!
1)
Johanna Gibbs!! I've always enjoyed boy names for girl charas [as above with
Billie...and then there's Devon, Murphy, Tristen (can be a boy's name lol)]...
This one came from my love of the movie Twister. Helen Hunt's chara was
named Joanna, and they all called her Jo. I always thought that was a sexy
nickname, so I used it...

2)
She has always been Vix's best friend before her life got turned upside
down.. everyone needs a best friend!! :]

3)
Originally she was a blond girl named Mina. That was like the name
I used for anyone that was a best friend back in the day [such as
gwen's best friend at one point... LOL]. I really don't know why I
used that name, I really hated the sound of it, even then LOL...
Anyway, Mina-Jo was a bit sleazy, but still a good friend. She
was a party animal and did a lot of bad shit [drugs and vandalism
and stuff]... but that fit with Vix's backstory back then. Now that
Vix is a more wholesome version of herself, Jo became behaved
as well lol.

4)
Jo is the one who gave Vix her nickname, after 'reading' the same
book I did :'D

Extra:
There are a couple other versions of Jo. I have the Night Elf
Jo, for WoW, who has her own little storyline... they are not
even remotely similar, but jsut thought I'd mention it :D
