New character that's a slight redesign of a really old idea. This is Orion Tanner, a professional fighter. He's become an icon for many in the city that feel ignored. His skill and technique exceed all his predecessors. He has been greatly aided in modern tech, using advanced AR/VR to gain experience beyond one human life. I like his hair honestly. Overall, after sketching him several times, I like his design now. However in this painted drawing he does look a lot more feminine than intended but that's just my style I guess. #oriontanner #myart #traditionalart #abcdcolor #paint #drawing #anime #artist #artwork #copic #marker #watercolor #art #dailyart #pen #myoc #originalcharacter #oc #portrait #sketches #pencil https://www.instagram.com/p/CBeVwIWjmhL/?igshid=xbonjivrknff

Hunger Games OC Masterlist (L-Z)

[ A - K ]

Name: Lacey Tanner

Story: The Tradition

District: 8

Face Claim: Kaya Scodelario

Love Interest: Finnick Odair

The buzz around Finnick Odair’s miraculous Hunger Games victory had barely begun to fade when twelve year old Lacey Tanner of District 8 shocked all of Panem by winning the 68th Games. The life of a victor was never easy, but for a child to grow up in the eyes and arms of the Capitol, right under the thumb of President Snow himself, was even more so. Lacey was fortunate that her fellow young, beloved victors; Cashmere, Gloss, and Finnick, took her under their wing, alongside the older and even more jaded victor, Haymitch Abernathy. For six years Lacey survived the constant scrutiny, keeping her head down and her chin up, forever the obedient Capitol Princess even as rebellion stirs around her. When Katniss Everdeen outmanoeuvres Snow in her own games, Lacey knows that the time for revolution is near — her only comfort is that she will be nineteen on the next reaping day, finally safe from the arena that forever haunts her nightmares. Or so she thought, until the 3rd Quarter Quell is announced.

Lacey knows. She knows that she’s returning to the games. District 8 only has two victors, and Cecelia has people who need her. Children. A family. Whereas Lacey? Her family is going into the arena with her, and there’s no guarantee that any of them will make it out.

Name: Marisol Odair

Story: Sink or Swim

District: 4

Face Claim: Amanda Seyfried

Love Interest: Gloss

Summary: Three years after her brother set the record for the youngest Hunger Games ever won, Marisol Odair’s name was drawn. A jack of all trades, master of none, Mari was no one’s first bet on a winner, but they underestimated the power of her spite–of course it helped to have her brother as a mentor, especially given Finnick’s sponsers. Barely fifteen when she won, and as beautiful as her brother was handsome, it was hardly a surprise when she was quickly roped into the same career as her brother. She took Finnick’s advice, collecting secrets instead of anything tangible, biding her time until she could use them. Reaped again for the Quarter Quell, Mari had a feeling her time may have come, but first she had to make sure to keep both she and her brother alive; and apparently overthrow the government in the process.

OC Interview Tag Game

Tagged by... well... um... teeeeechnically @donovyn--nox, if you squint and turn your head a bit. I’ll admit I’m mostly using this as an excuse to post this. Because I’ve become addicted to this format.

Rules: Answer these fifteen questions, tag fifteen people. Y’all should know by now that I’m only doing one of those.

Okay, folks, last one for now, and another antagonist. I’ve mentioned him a few times already (and really shouldn’t have, because he doesn’t get speaking lines until the second book,) gave a few teasers here and there, but now I’m going to give you some solid(ish) information. Here’s Not!Morgan.

1. What’s your full name?

“Doctor Morgan Lucius Tanner.”

The interviewer, confused, glances between him, the form, and the stack of completed interviews off to the side. Upon spotting a second Morgan Tanner elsewhere in the room, the interviewer sighs and moves on to the next question.

2. What does your full name mean?

“Hmm. Can’t say. I never put much stock into that sort of thing, anyway.”

3. What are your other names/nicknames?

He groans. “Oh, I have plenty of those. BlueCell calls me ‘Ares.’ CytoCen has designated me ‘PTR-4495 variant E.’ A mouthful, I know. Dr. Marius has gotten into the habit of referring to me as ‘his boss.’ And I recently came to find out that the time traveler calls me ‘Not-Morgan’ in order to differentiate me from,” his voice drops into a sarcastic, mocking tone, “the real Morgan Tanner.”

On the other side of the room, Col stands up on their chair and shouts, “Don’t forget ‘tall, pink, and ugly,’ you overgrown tumor!”

“These interviews,” he yells back, “are fucking confidential, [slur redacted.] Or is that too many syllables for your degenerate brain to process?”

Turning back to the interviewer, he rolls his eyes and mutters, “Juvenile.”

The interviewer, meanwhile, politely requests that Col (and their unusually sharp hearing,) leave the room before a fight breaks out... and is now concerned about what else they’ve overheard.

yeah, this is one is a particularly long tag game; Not!Morgan is chatty. hold on to your hats

4. What’s your gender?

“Male, I suppose. Not that it has much meaning to me these days.”

5. What’s your sexuality?

“Completely irrelevant.”

6. Where are you from?

Smiling faintly, he replies, “Right here in New York City.”

7. How old are you?

“Twenty-nine.”

8. What is your magic form/what species are you?

As usual for interviewees from this WIP, this question catches his attention. Unusually, he actually has an answer.

“For species,” he starts, somewhere between concerned and suspicious, “I’m the first of my kind, you see. There isn’t a word for it quite yet. CytoCen, and Dr. Marius in particular, is pushing for the term ‘viral construct,’ which, while somewhat accurate, is a little dry for my tastes. I prefer ‘Evolved,’ myself. There was also some fictional creature the time traveler compared me to, but I can’t be bothered to remember what it was.”

Crossing his arms, he turns to give the interviewer a defensive, sidelong glance. “But for form... how much did the time traveler tell you about me?”

Col, being the little bastard they are in the present-day, cracks the door open and sticks their head back into the room.

“Not much,” they chime in. “But if you’re so shy about it, I’ll just say it for you. You see, he’s actually a big, mutant-- shit!”

With a snarl, Not!Morgan snatches up the interviewer’s coffee mug and hurls it, full force, at the door. Col slams it shut to block the incoming projectile, and the mug itself is reduced to little more than ceramic powder from the impact. The door didn’t fare much better, and now boasts what can be only described as a crater, lined with splinters and damp with the remnants of the interviewer’s beverage.

Still seething, he asks, “If I were to kill them right now, would they stay dead?”

“No,” replies the interviewer, keeping a level voice, “these interviews are taking place outside of the scope of canon.”

“Damn.”

9. What does your human form look like?

“I have a strong preference for this one, obviously because it’s the one I had while I was still human.” A hint of a smile crosses his face. “You could say I’m nostalgic.”

At first glance, he and Morgan are identical, right down to the clothes he’s wearing. It’s only upon seeing them side by side that you can begin to pick out the differences. Slightly bigger nose, slightly darker eyes, slightly higher cheekbones. The barest hints of a cleft chin. A complexion several shades healthier. And maybe the interviewer was seeing things, but little flickers of charcoal-black had appeared across his form when his anger reached a fever pitch, alongside a faint, ember-like glow in his eyes.

“But it’s mutable,” he finishes.

The interviewer asks the obvious. “How mutable?”

In an instant, his right arm is replaced with a chaotic tangle of thick, dark grey, ropy tentacles, each faintly glowing with an inner fire. They wrap around and meld with a variety of jagged, chitinous plates to form the general structure of a limb, topped off with a set of ten-inch claws, glinting with a near-metallic sheen and altogether too close to the interviewer’s face. A brief whiff of vinegar and raw meat follows just behind.

He grins wickedly. “Rather.”

10. What’s your aesthetic?

“What the hell is an ‘aesthetic’?”

Rather than spending more time speaking with this vaguely threatening and very unnerving shapeshifter, (who had thankfully returned his arm to human form,) the interviewer counts this as a pass and hurries on to the next question.

11. Who’s your best friend?

“I don’t have much use for those kinds of social ties. There are far more efficient ways to ensure someone’s cooperation.” He pauses to think. “But if you’re referring to allies that aren’t under my direct influence... Dr. Marius. Easily. There’s a reason I selected him as my chief lieutenant instead of just keeping him around as a useful cog. The man shares my vision, and needed no persuasion to join the cause. Fuck, he sought me out.”

“You’ve mentioned him a few times. Is he The Director?” asks the interviewer.

“Hm? Oh, no. He’s not even his replacement. He’s one of the major liaisons between Special Projects and HR. Middle management.”

12. Would you ever get a piercing/tattoo?

“Body modification isn’t exactly something I need external help with.”

13. When are you happiest?

“Looking over my work, seeing how far I’ve come. Though if there’s one thing I share with my... counterpart,” he glances meaningfully towards Morgan, “it’s the primal joy that comes with bloodshed. He’s just afraid to admit it.” He scoffs. “It’s not healthy, clinging to his delusions like that. And his so-called allies are only encouraging him. Watching him struggle with mental illness... it almost makes me feel sorry for him.”

“Says the thing that thinks it’s Morgan Tanner,” said counterpart shouts from across the room.

“Says the thing that thinks it’s Morgan Tanner!”

Just two more questions, thinks the interviewer. Just two more questions.

14. What’s your biggest secret?

With a sigh, he admits, “also like my counterpart, I lack any memories from my former self. It’s vexing, to say the least.”

15. What was your first impression of [Morgan]?

He leans back, scowling. “He tried to kill me. Poison me, in fact. It didn’t register much at the time, though; my consciousness was still hazy.”

“You were eating me alive from the inside out,” Morgan growls.

Not!Morgan doesn’t even acknowledge him. “The second time we met, he tried to use me as a weapon against our father, and when that didn’t work, he attacked me.”

“The moment you had a pair of legs to stand on, you punched me across the room!”

“And the third time we met,” he turns in his chair, pointing an accusing finger at Morgan, “you wouldn’t even let me finish speaking!”

“You were dangling me by the neck over the edge of a fucking building!”

“Please. It’s not like the fall would have hurt you. I was just sending you a message.”

“And you had your claws out!”

Silently, and without fanfare, Riley gets up and walks out of the room... but not before sliding her mug across the table to Morgan and giving him a quick pat on the shoulder.

“Hmph. Well, in the end, I proved to be the superior specimen, didn’t I?”

“Because you finally managed to ambush me, instead of blowing your cover by gloating and grandstanding like you did last time.” He pauses. “And you never actually did kill me.”

“I didn’t need to.”

“No, I think it’s because you couldn’t.”

“It’s rather hard to show someone the error of their ways if they’re dead, don’t you think? I was hoping that reducing you to your base state would help you come to terms with what you are. But I guess that’s one thing we have in common; you’re a stubborn son of a bitch.”

With a sigh, Captain follows Riley’s example, motioning for a decidedly nervous Aug to leave the room with him.

“I’m gonna fucking end you.”

“Oooh, is that supposed to scare me? Come on, you and I both know you don’t have the balls to--”

Ceramic shards explode outwards as Riley’s mug collides with Not!Morgan’s face, sending splatters of lukewarm coffee everywhere. About point-five seconds later, he responds by lunging at his counterpart, teeth bared and claws out.

The interviewer, having anticipated this, grabs hold of the interview files and flees from the full-scale superpowered showdown that has now erupted in the interview room, scrambling over tables, dodging around chairs, and slamming the door behind them.

“But you haven’t gotten to everyone yet,” I say, pointing to three well-dressed scientists; a haggard-looking doctor; a teenage boy in a bloodstained, tattered hospital gown; and a walking spoiler; all waiting to take their turn.

“That may be true, but I am afraid for my life, you’ve admitted that they’re not quite finished yet, and the room is being destroyed as we speak.” They wince as a truly thunderous crash rattles the walls, then rush to shake my hand. “It’s been a pleasure, thank you for your time, good day!”

In the end, all I’m left with are a small stack of character interviews, a pair of brawling Morgans to break up, the realization that I’ve put an undue amount of narrative into this whole endeavor.

At least I got the hang of Riley’s character voice again.
