Who Likes Making Up Characters?

Howdy!

My name is Lucy, if you can't already tell.  I just wanted to say that if you like having "imaginary" friends or characters that were made by you or a friend, comment on this thread and tell me some info about them.  If I get enough characters, I will write a short story about them and their adventures!  If you comment about a character, write at least these few things about your character:

Name

Age

Species

Distinguishing Features

Favorite Weapon (if they have one)

Friends

Enemies

Strengths

Weaknesses

Note: if you do not write a part of this list, I will fill in the details myself!  When I get a comment, I will reply to you to tell you any missing informatioon and what I've used to fill in the blanks, and if your character will be in the story.  Thanks a bunch in advance if you plan to submit a character!

Well, often times in school I end up drawing a random person or strange animal in math class. Then, I spend the rest of the day coming up with a story to go with them. Also, at night when I can't fall asleep, I come up with characters and then run them in the most ridiculous scenarios.

Name: Tresk

Age: 8

Species: mY FaVORiTe aNimAL (gryphon)

Distinguishing Features: Red-brown feathers which thin near his head, tail is perpetually curled up, long thin chicken legs (no feathers on his legs), large build and rusty fur, sharp, upward-facing beak, orange eyes

Favorite Weapon (if they have one): He's never gotten close enough to a weapon to familiarize himself with them.

Friends: A couple of other gryphons near his age, Blyrr, who is older at 9 1/4, and Rejacc, at 7 11/12.

Enemies: Lavendess. Young gryphon rivalries are obviously not very powerful, but Lavendess seems to always be there to point out things Tresk has done wrong. Being not very old, and also very judgemental, he sees gryphons as either friends or enemies. 

Strengths: He's pretty powerful, but for the majority of his life he's never had to fight anyone. Still, once when he was younger he knocked over one of his peers and there paw was damaged for a short while afterwards, so his parents and teachers have made sure to keep this in check.

Weaknesses: He's really, really bad at being quiet. Most places he walks he knocks something over. He never likes to play hide and seek because of this. Also, he can't take insults. If this was back in 1804 he would have challenged a bunch of people to duels (Hamilton reference).

Okey Doke.  Do you want me to put your friends Blyrr and Rejacc and your enemy Lavenders in there?  It's not a problem if you do.  Just give me more info on them.

Yay! If there is still time, I would like to make a charrie. And can I make two?? If not, just chose one. 

Name: Ira Opal

Age: 13

Appearance: thick, wavy, sandy, orange-blonde hair that falls to the middle of her back. Really vivid blue eyes and tanned skin. She has freckles sprinkled across her nose, and is about average hight for her age. Loves to wear T-shirt and board shorts over her swimsuit in the summer, and lots of light blue clothes when she isn't on the beach. 

Personality: Caring and funny, doesn't worry about little things that might keep her from smiling. She likes to be free, whatever the word means in the situation that she is in. For her bubbling personality, she is not very brave and is scared of heights and of getting lost. She tries to overcome her fears by trying new things.

Distinguishing features: Ira loves sandcastle building! Growing up on the beach, she always wanted to learn how to surf, but was afraid that the rushing water would pull her under, and there was no one to teach her.

Strengths: Small kids, she has a seven-year-old  brother and five-year-old sister. Also a strong swimmer, and quick-thinking.

Weaknesses: Can be ignorant.

Species: human, but if you want, tiny bit of mermaid blood.

Friends: Rosalyn Trask 

Enemies: Herself.

Charrie two (if allowed)!

Name: Oaks Ontarion 

Gender: Male 

Appearance: Close-cropped black hair, brown eyes*, dark skin, typically intense expression, short for his age. 

 

Other: Oakes means "dweller by the oak tree" or something like that.

Age: 7

Personality: Shy with adults, not especially talkative. His mind has no field; and he loves to think about things that would make sense to older kids, but are wonders to him.

 

Strengths: Climbing. He can climb trees, fences, and things like that very well, but not rock.

 

Weaknesses: Emotions. He doesn't know what to do with them.

 

Species: You can decide.

Friends: None.

Enemies: Everyone except himself.

*I looked up common eye color, and guys, guess what? My eyes are the least common color in the world (according to a particular website)! Yay! My eyes are decidedly green.

Uh. . . Hey y'all. . .

I am starting the story now since NOBODY is posting any new charries or whatever you all call them.   It has been 2 weeks since there has been a comment, and it was by ME.  THE CREATOR.  See what I mean?

Now, I don't have all the ideas that I need, so I might turn this into an RP, even though I am part of the story myself.  Look for the thread "RANDOM TALE RP" to read the first part of the story.  I do not know if I can stop the changing storyline at all, so watch out for that as well.

Sorry, y'all. . . But I have to start!
