did it for both of my aro characters!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Took a bit to get to a completed version that I liked but here it is!! An Aromantic character sheet!
This is 100% free for use and is made to keep track to personality traits for characters specifically pertaining to their Aromanticism and how it affects their relationships and interaction (with a few additional fun things thrown in there).
I’m sorry in advance for any spelling mistakes! I’ll fill this in for one of my own characters is a second so people can see how it works!

yes i have more ocs. there was too much ocs in the first post, so i’m gonna be making this post and 1 more. decided to split them all up by universe they are in. welcome to the snake universe intro post!
Tomomi Amano
pronouns: he/him
DOB: November 11th
age: 16
sexuality(in their own words!): it’s kind of complicated? i know for sure i like men though. (aromantic gay)
gender(in their own words!): man.
this guy is complicated hoo boy. gonna ultra summarize his backstory
parents raised him to be the “savior” of the family, to bring the family out of poverty with success in the workplace. has super high expectations placed on him because of that.
but because of circumstances surrounding his older sister’s suicide, tomomi decided to not help his family
his parents divorced when he was 10, his mom lost hope in her family, and went to live with her parents. tomomi hates his mom for abandoning them.
literally rebuilt his personality from scratch after his sister’s death(and one more thing that i shall get into later) so he could become stronger and less easy to manipulate by the adults around them
huge superiority complex, overexaggerates it in the name of humor so people won’t believe he actually thinks he’s better than everyone else(oh but he does)
loves rats! bought a pet rat and named him yokan
also loves horror manga, he tries making some too, but imagine those so bad it’s funny 2 sentence horror reddit posts when you think of tomomi’s comics.
favorite color is red, when he joined the revolution he tried dying his hair red. it came out pink.
picrew
Tumblr media
tag: tomo baby
Daichi Hayashi
pronouns: he/him
DOB: September 3rd
age: 16
sexuality(in their own words!): uh, that’s private info! why do you need to know? and why do i need to know? can’t i just exist, loving people no matter who they are? (bisexual)
gender(in their own words!): well, i’m a boy.
just a dude. not much more to say.
super awkward, gets flustered way too easily by the most polite compliments. “hey you did good on the math test daichi!” “o-oh, uhm... thank you.... [awkward laugh here]”
is teased by his friends for his trash taste in men and women.
starts out normal, but gets weirder and weirder as the story progresses.
loves video games. plays a game(that doesn’t exist irl) called owari no yume with tomomi
huge crush on tomomi btw. tomomi knows and bullies daichi about it.
loves candy. holy crap he is obsessed with candy.
makes terrible puns that only he laughs at.
picrew
Tumblr media
tag:daichi baby
Makoto Mochizuki
pronouns: she/her
DOB: july 3rd
age: 16
sexuality(in their own words!): just a hopeless lesbian
gender(in their own words!): girl, but something is a bit off. like a cheap knock off.
just pretty chaotic.
hopeless romantic, #lovewins!
terrible at lying and keeping secrets. blurts out stuff all the time.
loud=funny to her
super vulgar. nothing is tmi with her
kind of scared of tomomi even though they’re friends
favorite color is pink, tried dying it pink during the revolution, but it came out red instead
she’s not as developed as a lot of the other characters here, cuz she is a side character used for comedic relief
picrew
Tumblr media
tag: mak baby
Emika “Ema” Saito
pronouns: she/they
DOB: February 19th
age: 17
sexuality(in their own words!): i’m pansexual, don’t mind about people’s genders
gender(in their own words!): i’m a demi-girl.
most likely to have a tumblr account called somthing like castiels-cum-sock
when you first meet them, she is super shy and quiet, but then you quickly realize she is unhinged(they have a tumblr)
makes a billion of references that only she gets and laughs at.
teachers love her
more scared of doctors then getting in trouble at school
accidentally the cause of the revolution, which i should explain quickly here. so in japan in a lot of schools, having a hair color other than black is against dress code, and having frizzy non straight hair is too. you can either straighten and dye your hair, or you can get a doctor’s note giving you permission to have your natural hair. ema doesn’t want to change up their style, and ema is terrified of doctors, so they just continued going to school ignoring the rules. she kept getting in trouble, and their homeroom class decided to dye their hair funky colors to prove that they wouldn’t get distracted by “weird hair”. a lot of rich people went to the school, and the school didn’t wanna be sued, so they reluctantly allowed the students to dye their hair as long as it isn’t distracting.
is hailed the hero of individuality, when in reality she just hates doctors.

tag:ema baby
Kaoru Amano
pronouns: she/her
DOB: April 9th
age: 23
sexuality(in their own words!): haven’t thought about it too much... straight i guess
gender(in their own words!): i’m a girl, nothing more to add.
tomomi’s older (dead) sister.
really sad backstory, she was originally raised to be the family savior, but her parents saw how naturally untalented she was at school work, how little friends she had, and decided that kaoru was a lost cause.
when tomomi was born, the parents changed up their parenting style for kaoru. they had her assist in them making tomomi “perfect” and that her main goal was to insure that tomomi succeeds in life.
despite all that, she still loved her baby brother with her whole heart.
a couple years after her mom left, and tomomi was almost in highschool, kaoru and her dad knew that they didn’t have enough money for him to get into a decent collage. so kaoru and her dad made a plan to collect insurance money from kaoru’s suicide.
kaoru is just, really sad. she feels like a failure of a child. felt as if her “““sacrifice””” was a way to “““atone”““ for being a “““useless”““ person
the amano parents are terrible, worst parents ever award.

tag: kao baby
Otoe Fukui
pronouns: she/her
DOB: February 3rd
age: 17
sexuality(in their own words!): don’t have much interest in relationships at this moment.
gender(in their own words!): girl, unless something changes.
makoto’s cousin
a huge snob. bullied tomomi in their first year of highschool cuz “a poor slum ridden fool like you is only dirtying this school!”
tomomi threw a chair at her. otoe stopped bullying him afterwards.
otoe bullying tomomi was the other event that lead tomomi to remaking himself, and otoe getting the chair thrown at her caused her to reassess her flaws and become a better person.
that’s really it.
still a huge snob even after her character development though.

pinned post for my main ocs, or the ocs i'll be posting the most about. the info isn’t in depth for them all cuz i wanted to keep this short, and not all of my ocs are in this.
the big ones, the ones who are the most involved with the in story universe
annabelle rose hawthorne (aka ko):
pronouns: she/her
age: 9 at death date, 72 modern times
DOB: may 15th 1949
sexuality(in her own words!): i have more important things to care about than who i think is cute.
gender(in her own words!): girl i guess. i really don’t care.
ghost who's possessing a stuffed bunny
just an edgelord with trauma
accidentally became friends with this universe's equivalent to the grim reaper and satan
she just kinda vibes now
picrew
Tumblr media
tag: ko baby
annie blair clark:
pronouns: she/her (maybe some it/its action too?)
DOB: january 12th 1973
age: 19 at death date, 49 modern times
sexuality(in her own words!): i like men
gender(in her own words!): girl
human, but she kinda no longer exists? but when she did exist it was a human.
because of its unstable mental state and high spiritual energy, they were a prime target to be used as a vessel for zares(harbinger of the apocalypse basically)
ko killed her for the memes(revenge)
a week after she died, it forgot it did, so annie just showed up to her retail job in a rapidly changing very unstable mist like form
has mommy issues(most important part of her character)
picrew
Tumblr media
tag: abc baby
yuie:
pronouns: they/them
age: if we go by annie’s death date, may 7th 1992
DOB: if we go by date of creation, 30
sexuality(in their own words!): a lot...
gender(in their own words!): also a lot...
they are the collection of souls
before annie died, she simply hosted the souls in herself, but when she did die, there was no physical barrier holding them all hostage and unconscious, so they all fused together(which was part of the reason annie was a perfect candidate go be used by zares while it was living)
how did it host the souls? the souls she was hosting were the remnants of her past lives
after they caused some shenanigans in the living world, they got forcefully dragged into hell
once yuie got to hell, they were made the god/s of reincarnation
used to have multiple different forms, but they all semi-fused into a single consciousness
but two of the five souls(annie and someone else...) do NOT like ko at all and freak out when they see her
picrew
Tumblr media
tag: yuie babies
*note, not a metaphor for did/osdd. if anyone who's in a system sees yuie and is like "oh wow relatable" that's fine, just know that yuie was never made to be one. and lmk if yuie is a problematic depiction of those disorders too(even if they were never meant to be that)
oyakoyi:
she/he/they
age: a couple centuries younger than the universe, but at date of death she was 14
birthday: july 14th
sexuality(in her own words!): hee hee hoo hoo men!
gender(in his own words!): i just go with however i’m feeling in the moment, go with the flow, y’know? (genderfluid)
ex-human, now basically satan! (yay)
lived on this earth hella long, like he's super old
he loves humans! likes to come up to the living world and chill with them
shape-shifting king, loves to troll
religious trauma from when they were alive
they secretly are going behind her boy best friend’s(zares) back by sabotaging his apocalypse plans, which is how she became friends with ko. just to say “heyyy thanks for killing annie for me :3″
picrew
Tumblr media
tag: oya baby
rezzie aka zares:
pronouns: he/it
DOB: whenever the universe was made is his birthday
age: as old as the universe i guess
sexuality(in his own words!): i dunno
gender(in his own words!): i am a man, for legal purposes
demon dude
he is the boy best friend
don’t wanna talk too in depth about how my ocs universe was made, just know that rezzie and yikothololath(tholath for short) are twin brothers who were made as guardians for the afterlife, and rezzie hates its brother
rezzie is also an edgelord, but on the opposite side that ko is(ko is trauma edgelord, rezzie is 13 year old who makes cringe compilations edgy.)
rezzie doesn’t have a stable physical form, so for the last few centuries he’s been trying to use a human’s body to achieve its goal to destroy tholath, but each human he tries to use mysteriously dies hmmmm...
rezzie is the one who saved oyakoyi from her suffering in the living world, and gave them the powers she uses to this day.
rezzie doesn’t want oyakoyi to know of its plan to hurt tholath(cuz that plan involves destroying earth) and he knows that oyakoyi loves earth
picrew
Tumblr media
tag: rez baby
still important ones, just have slightly less control on the overarching story:
charlie andrew jones:
pronouns: he/him
age: 24
DOB: november 9th 1996
sexuality(in his own words!): straight? i like women, they are really pretty. but one day i went outside to pick up the mail, and i saw this guy who looked like a girl and i thought he was super pretty and liked him, but once he told me he was a guy i didn’t get grossed out or whatever? and i still liked him? does that make me gay? but i like women, and only women except for him. i am sorry, i am not super into the gay stuff, the gender stuff. i am probably straight. i think. hmm but that guy i saw...(he is pansexual)
gender(in his own words!): uh i am a guy
his story takes place in the modern day, and is rezzie’s current target
he’s just... really sad. needs a hug. 
did bad things as a kid, and feels as if he can never atone and that he never deserves forgiveness.
almost never leaves his room
forgot how to interact normally with people, but most of his new friends are also super weird so they don’t notice that

ohta ueno
pronouns: he/him
DOB: august 9th 2004
age: 19
sexuality(in his own words!): bisexual
gender(in his own words!): just a gnc cis guy, but on the topic of gender let me tell you about this--[UNRELATED RANT CUT OFF]
he is the “guy that looked like a girl” that charlie saw
ohta’s super weird and eccentric. he speaks his mind and instantly regrets it. he’ll trauma dump, realize what he’s doing, and then continue to trauma dump but instead lie about his traumas to “throw you off his track”
ultra paranoid, always brings a survival pack wherever he goes.
autism. special interest are rabbits, ghosts, and zombies
he and ko would get along great! they are both very edgy.

age: 16 at death, 51 now
sexuality(in her own words!): when i was like, a kid and stuff, there wasn’t even a concept for being aroace! i’m chill with oyakoyi and one day she was telling me about some modern day queer stuff, and once they mentioned what aroace was, i was like, “oh my god, that’s me!”

really bad at lying. the only time emotion will show on his face is when he is trying to lie.
he’s a pretty boy too, and knows it. he sees no use for modesty.
incredibly blunt. never sugarcoats anything.
had a huge crush on izzy, and when she died he started investigating the mysterious circumstances around her death

gender(in their own words!): genderqueer
hallie was izzy’s guardian angel
was in a rivalry with finley, competing for izzy’s heart
really short, wears ultra baggy clothing, but is secretly ultra muscular. could snap me like a toothpick.
literally can’t lie. only tells the truth cuz they were told that lying is bad and hallie doesn’t want to be bad
is a huge weirdo and does blacksmithing as a hobby
when she came down from the heavens to protect izzy when they would be toddlers, they both almost got kidnapped and hallie stabbed the attempted kidnapper in the leg to get away.

Leonardo “Lenny” Julio Garcia Konig(he hates being called leonardo, refuses to answer to that name)
pronouns: he/him
DOB: august 29th 1970
age: 52
sexuality(in his own words!): i’m gay. yeah.
gender(in his own words!): i’m just a guy(imagine this being said very awkwardly)
one of my favorite ocs tbh
(au where autism became an actual diagnosis before the mid 80s so then i wouldn’t have to shift around the timeline and ages of the guys in this category) lenny got diagnosed with autism when he was 3
his older brothers were abusive to him when he was growing up(because lenny acted “weird” and ect.) school? he had no friends, he has no idea on how to socialize, he was ignored at school and by his parents.
lenny one day was like “fuck this” and ran away from home.
lenny, despite having no idea on how to interact with people, became really good at lying and manipulating people to get what he wanted while living as a homeless runaway, so now he only knows how to talk to people if it’s in a lying sense.
lenny was obsessed with this book series about a group of kids adventuring, and the final book in the series came out when he was homeless, and when he finally got the chance to read it, it was terrible. so lenny made fanfiction of what he thought a better ending would be.
he acts all cute and soft when you first meet him, but once you get to know him, you see he’s just super sleepy, blunt, and angry at all the shitty stuff that happened to him in the past. but no matter what he’s really awkward. and affection starved.
married to finley btw

Maya Cedillo Diaz

DOB: November 2nd 1972
age: 50
sexuality(in her own words!): lesbian
gender(in her own words!): lesbian! ^^
maya is so sweet, like candy. dipped in sugar.
she is one of the chillest people out there. she is also like a puppy, but not as hyper as izzy. like an older dog that’s starting to calm down a bit
she is pretty blunt and doesn’t tip toe around the truth though, so some may (wrongly) perceive her as rude, especially since she english is her second language and has trouble using the right words sometimes
a little mischievous sometimes, always drags lenny and her little brother into her schemes
one of lenny’s first friends, and gets along super well with almost anyone
cuts her own hair and lenny’s, though lenny doesn’t like having super short hair so maya just takes care of his bangs.

gender(in her own words!): i am a woman, but in a weird way, like how the moon is a woman!
hardcore witch, literally wore a witch hat to school (what a nerd)
disabled, older sister helps her decorate her wheelchair to make it look cool!
has so many rocks it’s unreal...
worshipped zarasevna(grim reaper equivalent) and has connections to oyakoyi
oyakoyi literally showed carmen a secret bar where they could chill with other ghosty people. carmen showed that bar off to her new group of friends(that is how finley found the zombie to invite to his wedding)
carmen seems a little quiet and chill at first, but gets progressively more chaotic the longer you know her. 
she is a huge jokester, can sometimes go too far with her jokes and hurt people though. she’s trying to work on noticing when she’s gone too far.

age: 16 at time of death, 88 modern day
sexuality(in her own words!): uh, i think it is called celibate? i have no interest in sex stuff. and i don’t really know the correct words to use, so sorry if i used a wrong one! (asexual hetero romantic)
gender(in her own words!): it’s simple, i’m just a girl...
really emotional, never got the chance to sort out her emotions when she died, so all of her traumas were left to fester like an open wound.
has a messy attachment style, one moment she’ll be super clingy, the next she’s terrified to even talk to you.
easily stressed out, and prone to lash out if she’s pushed far enough
despite all that, once she found people she was able to form a semi-normal bond with, she cherished them all deeply, and tries her best to not lash out at them
ultra shy, does not know how to talk to people at all. very quiet. 
but oh boy when she does talk, she sure does talk! loves cartoons she can’t shut up about them(it’s the autism)
she is the ghost that was invited to finley’s and lenny’s wedding

he looks all badass and tough and shit, but as a kid when he got home he played princess tea party with his little sister. now? he goes out to coffee with her once a month(at a really girly coffee place too, but that doesn’t matter to de’andre)
he tries to act all intimidating, but he is so weird and eccentric you can’t really take him seriously.
he took drama in high school
when he became an adult, he and his daughter watched cartoons together(and played princess tea party)
does music on the side
