Skulduggery Pleasant

[The Mask]

Not sure about Tane. If he was an adult I would say Jay Laga'iga.

Haylee though... perhaps Isabella Richardson?

[Jetthebinturong]

And yet another dreamcast: Arthur Darvill as Scapegrace

What is your opinion on elves being in the Pleasantverse? 'Cause I had an idea from seeing a picture of Skulduggery OC that looked like an elf (but wasn't) and then this conversation instantly came to mind

Valkyrie: Where are we going?
Skulduggery: We're going to see an elf about a murder
Val: What?
Skul: We're going to see an elf
Val: There are elves?
Skul: Indeed there are
Val: I've been in this world for eight years and you never told me there were elves?
Skul: You never asked
Val: Elves
Skul:*Pause* Valkyrie, you know how mortals have twisted the stories of magical creatures until they barely resemble each other. Elves are the same. These are not beautiful, graceful warriors of purity, these are beautiful, graceful, petty, vindictive beings
Val: Oh
Skul: You have been told that you can never trust vampires. This is mostly true but there are occasionally vampires who can be trusted. But you can never, never, trust an elf
Val: Oh
Skul: Valkyrie, this is important. Promise me that you will never have dealings with elves
Val: Uh
Skul: Promise me that you will only ever talk to an elf if an older, more experienced sorcerer is there with you
Val: I am experienced
Skul: Valkyrie, elves are the oldest creatures on the planet, they are cunning and they are deadly, no twenty year-old should ever be left alone with an elf
Val: Alright
Skul: Good. His name is Elian
Val: The elf is called Alien?

[Jetthebinturong]

I named all my OCs!

The purple-haired guy is Lamio Bane
The black woman is Maria Nightingale
The redhead necromancer is Fayora Melody
The blond guy is Matthew Sharpe

I've also got a new OC who's an insane, eccentric guy, his name is Loki Sekasorto

If you can work out why they're called that then uh... you're cool I guess. You don't really win anything.

Loki

[close]

He's an energy thrower and a symbol mage (Derek has confirmed that symbol magic is not a discipline, anyone can do it)

[The Mask]

Those are nice names! I can't really guess why you named them that though!

[Lady Ashenwyte]

I read the first book a few days ago. I was mighty impressed.

@Jet: Could you link me to the came you created Loki with? I searched on the website, but I failed to find it.

[Jetthebinturong]

http://www.rinmarugames.com/game/?game_id=438

To get to it from the home page and then click "exclusive". The game is the "anime partners dress up game"

Lamio is called what he is because he looks like a vampire. The Latin word for vampire is lamia but that sounded too feminine so you do the switching thing to make it Lamio. Bane is because he's very brutal and violent.

Maria is for her caring, motherly nature, Nightingale... it just fits her.

Same with Fayora, no reason, it just works.

Matthew is named for simplicity and ability to blend in. "Sharpe" is a cognate of "sharp" so that references his ability to shoot sharp shards of energy.

And Loki is named for his generally trickster-like and mischievous nature. Sekasorto is a Finnish word meaning chaos or pandemonium which fits his insanity.

I answered ninety questions as Loki, it was rather interesting to put myself in his mindset (you can read them if you want).

[The Mask]

Aaah. That's pretty smart.
I would like to see those questions if possible!

[Jetthebinturong]

Loki questions

Swearing, some kind of disturbing things (he's pretty unhinged)

Loki: And symbol mage!

Loki: Friends? I wouldn't say I have friends. I'm friendly with a few people but they're not my friends.

10. Do they have any enemies?
Loki: Oh yes indeed. That pompous, stuck-up, **********er, Elian. I'd like to smash his face.

11. Tell me what their strong points are.
Loki: I am very, very good at magic. I'm also a very fun person and my costumes are better than anyone else's. Also, I've beaten up an elf and gotten away with it.

12. What do they have trouble with?
Proper social interaction and being normal.
Loki: HEY!!!

13. >:3 What is their worst fear?
Loki: Death darling. Oblivion. The void. The eternal darkness. That good night. Drowning and being buried alive in particular.

Loki: God knows!

15. Least favourite?
Loki: God knows!

16. What is your OC's height?
Loki: I am 6ft 1.

Loki: 368 dear. Or, to be more precise, 368 years, 8 months and 4 days.

Loki: Oh yes. I've got my little kitty, Thor. He's so cute and tiny!

21. Has your OC ever been to the hospital?
Loki: **** hospitals! Find yourself a magical medic or, alternatively, use your own symbols to heal yourself.

22. Consider this: If any of you friends got involved in an accident, how would your OC react?
Loki: I thought I said I didn't have friends? My acquaintances are far too clever to get into accidents.

23. Almost forgot: What are the bad habits your OC has?
Loki: I apparently swear too much. I also reportedly get, and I quote, "really ****ing brutal" when I get mad.

24. Niiice. Now for this: Did he/she ever get into fights or gets in trouble?
Loki: Of course darling, what's life without a little strife, eh?

25. Ok now here's the hard part: Confession. Does your character happen to be...in love with someone? If yes, describe it.
Loki: Love? Do I love someone? No. No, I wouldn't say so.

26. What was their first date like? Was it sweet or romantic?
Loki: My first date was a train wreck. A hilarious train wreck but a train wreck none the less. A literal train wreck. Many people died.

27. Hmmm...now describe how your OC introduced his/her lover to their parents!
Loki: I thought I said I didn't have a lover?

28. First kiss?
Loki: Oh it was wonderful! That train wreck date, it was an attempt on my life. My date and I killed the would-be assassins and made out over their corpses as the train was derailed.

29. Oh bad stuff, someone your OC(or you) hates just ruined the perfect date!! Who is it, and what would you do to them?
Loki: I'm single darling, single. Though in this hypothetical situation I'd **** Elian over and send him home with a few new sword cuts.

30. Theme song?
Loki:  Majora's battle theme.

31. Strangely, has he/she ever...killed anyone? If yes, say how many people they killed, and name them.
Loki: Of course I have darling. I've killed hundreds of ****ers!

32. What does your OC do to hide their true colours from the public?
Loki: Heh. Hide my true nature? I wear my heart on my sleeve dear; I don't hide my true nature. Of course I don't use magic in the presence of mortals because I'd be arrested.

33. Did your character experience anything traumatic at all?
Loki: I've experienced a considerable amount of trauma. I watched my best friend get tortured to death, was tortured myself, bitten by a vampire (killed him before he turned me of course). Yeah, my life's been pretty traumatic, sometimes I get nightmares.

34. Considerably, do they experience stuff like this and go mad?
Loki: No darling, my madness is reserved for other things.

Matthew: He creeps me out.
Tanith: He's very creepy.
Lamio: I may have to kill him.
Maria: I... I would like to keep away from him.
Fayora: Um. I would like to maybe keep away from him. I would not like to be in the same town. I would not like to be in the same city.

39. Good or Evil?
He's on the side of good but he is not a good person.

40. Imagine this : One day your OC is walking, and they find an odd item on the ground. What is it?

Loki: No darling, I think I'll leave that for crazy Italian plumbers.

57. Yay ^^! Who would you crush?
Loki: Who would I crush? Elian, that ****ing elf needs to die. Who would I crush on? I don't know; a lot of people. Skulduggery, give us a kiss.
Skulduggery: No

58. Their favourite animal?
Loki: Cats all the way.

59. You've turned tiiiiiiiinnnnyyyyy!!
Loki: I SWEAR TO GOD I WILL HAUNT THE ****ER THAT STEPS ON ME!

Loki: The same as always. I would rather be a man but it wears off soon so who honestly gives a ****?

72. What do they dream about at night?
Loki: They're nightmares mostly. Dying or watching other people die, that kind of stuff.

73. Consider this: Does your character ever daydream?
Loki: Darling, I have no time for daydreaming.

74. What's one thing you would ask your own OC?
Why are you so insane?

Loki: Jewellery darling. 

80. Is your OC--by any means necessary--funny?
Often. But it's a scary kind of funny.

81. GAH, they got pranked!!! Quick, plot your revenge!!!
Loki: A punch to the face solves everything darling.

82. What did you and your OC plot, and who did they plot against?
Loki: I didn't plot anything, I just punched Elian right in his ****ing face.

Loki: I can escape fairly easily by myself darling, no need to worry about me.

[close]

[The Mask]

He seems like...quite a character!

[Cornflower MM]

About to finish the first book. . . . . . . I'm hooked. Totally hooked.

(Also, Jet, please don't kill me, but Skulduggery kinda reminds me of you, personality wise)

[Jetthebinturong]

Yesssssssssssssss. Who's your favourite character?

Why would I kill you for comparing me to one of the best characters of all time? I can do, in my humble opinion, a great Skulduggery voice too. Probably comes from my Irish descent.

"You ask me what is my nature? It is a dark and twisted thing."

[Cornflower MM]

Besides Skul and Valkyrie, probably Ghastly. Or Tanith. (Does Ghastly ever un-statue? If he doesn't, I am literally going to throw something.)

Mmm, good point. I dunno. (My doubts were because he's a skeleton. I think. Can't remember.) That's cool! I'd probably fail.

Mmph, that was one of my favorite parts.

[Jetthebinturong]

(Does Ghastly ever un-statue? If he doesn't, I am literally going to throw something.)
Maybe.
Mmph, that was one of my favorite parts.
It was one of the best moments of the series, in my opinion.

[Cornflower MM]

Maybe? MAYBE?! MAYBE!?! You won't give me any more clues than that? Oh, you are stubborn sometimes.

[The Mask]

His relationship with Tanith... Seriously. I was on the verge of tears after Last Stand of the Dead Men. Were they happy or sad tears though
