Andro, for some reason the cyborg just seems super cool to me and I wanted to see, how the two characters, my ex Jedi and her worked out. Honestly it would be awesome if they became friends or something but I know that has to be done organically and them being on opposite sides will make it kind of hard.
Rad, I was hoping you'd say Andro because she's my favourite. So I don't really like to plan out stories or threads, but just set scenes and see how things unfold from there. I tend to put alot of effort into individual posts, but just let the thread as a whole take it's course. That said, if you had a story in mind, I'd be glad to hear it and figure out a way to make it happen.
PM me if you want to send anything super detailed.
Because I'm a complete loser who creates characters instead of making friends with real people.

ok srsly, thankyou. My personality sections are very long just because I like designing characters. I brainstorm for months before I actually write anything down, so I can put extra amounts of thought into the traits they have in order to make them as close to real people as possible. I also carry around a little decorative notebook like a total dork so I can write down lists of character traits before organizing them into a full description.
and thanks again, I'm nuts about fashion and design aswell so I'm a bit into making my profiles pretty (◕◡◕✿)
Do you write it before you find pictures? or do you use pictures to get the creative juices flowing? If I was told to write a character from scratch right now, without a picture to look at I find it impossible!!
I got your PM, just working on a few things right now. Yeah, lol, I don't think you really read Andro's profile fully if that's what you had in mind. Independent from the fact that she's a 6 foot 2, disfigured cyborg monster who looks and behaves like a dude, she's also the biggest lesbian in the history of man.
I design what the characters look like in my head and then commission art of them (such as the case with Andro and Serebin), I always have a super particular idea so it's impossible to just find an image for them. In Lola's case, she was just a generic purple Twi'lek, so it was just a case of tweaking some pics.
Are those commissions all from the same artist? If so, he/she is very talented. I love the Andro pic. Other than that, I think I like Lola the best. I like the idea of a character that wanders aimlessly around the galaxy, without any major goal or purpose other than her desire for vengeance plus whatever secret goals she might have. (Plus, she's called Lola! What's cooler than that?!)
I left out some bits, she's a Tyrian (purple-skinned) Twi'lek, which means she's part of the artist caste, so she has a background of dance and performance. She longs for the day she no longer has to fight and can perform again. Her style of dance is more contemporary jazz, rather than the traditional Ryloth style.
Um no? She wants to be a professional dancer/singer and perform in theatres, like, in the real world. Performance doesn't need to be negative or degrading as Star Wars commonly depicts it.
Lola was actually inspired by Edith Piaf and depression-era Paris. Twi'leks have French accents in TCW so that's where I got the idea. She's also my take on what Eleena Daru should have been like in SWTOR, instead of just Malgus' ill-fated stage prop.
