The OC's from the Past (Group 1: Imaginary Friends)
I talk about my OC's. This first one is about my original imaginary friends (that weren't based off of character IP's).
For a long time I've built up quite a few OC's. Original Characters, for those who aren't in the know. I mentioned in a Project post of mine that I was going to share a huge ass list of them at some point, because I was using some edited versions of them. Three, to be exact.
My plan was originally to have them all separated into drop-down menus in a big-ass post, separated by groups. That doesn't seem to be working out, so instead the groups will be individual posts. I think that will give me room to also talk about certain things (like maybe how the world they live in is like or something). I'm gonna try to post these groups in order of the earliest one made to the latest one made, though I don't promise full on accuracy.
I'll state their name, their description, their personality and skills, and their roles, in some sort of order.
Some of these characters have had changes over the years. I will talk about their most recent (or my favorite) iteration, while making note of previous incarnations that were important enough.
If a character gets migrated into something new, I will point out which group they came from, and whether or not they had any changes.
Now, let us begin:
Imaginary Friends
I had a lot of these as a kid. A majority of them were from media, mainly from games. I won't put them in the boxes, as I didn't change their personalities... much. But, I will list them at the end of the character section, outside of the drop-downs.
For reference, these guys lived in a place called Aiden Land. What an original name. It starts with some hills with trapdoors leading to cozy underground houses, then it leads into some sort of hedge maze (with a grandiose path down the middle, so it's not really a maze if you think about it). Said path takes you to the city, with a bunch of tall buildings bundled together. All around is the forest, but if you go past the city through the forest you'll reach some sort of Arizona-like desert. There's a big cliff, with thin stairs someways back set in the ground so that you can go down. At the bottom, it continues until it turns into a legit, sandy desert. Further past is, somehow, some ice-cold tundra.
Not that the setting mattered as much, as it was my imagination, but it's still interesting to think about.
Blue Characters
Blue Cat
Hey look, it all started here, on a blue cat. Funny how that turned out for me.
I would tell you to take a guess on what he is, but honestly it still leaves a lot up to imagination (heh). He was an imaginary friend, drawn in my first artstyle of stick figures with box torsos. Think of the most generic cat, and imagine him colored in by the blue crayon color. Now imagine him being bipedal a majority of the time. Due to my style back then, his only differences between the Generic Person Template (circle head on top of tall rectangle body, sticks attached to corners as arms and legs; circle head has two big dots for eyes and a small dot for a nose) is that he has triangle ears jutting up from the top of his head, and a curled long tail. So it's almost like a furry, but at the time I had no fucking idea what one was.
I liked this character enough that I had an alternate self in my imagination where I became a blue cat myself, though we were not the same person.
Blue Cat was goofy, kind, and outgoing. If there was adventure, he was there. That's... kind of it, really, for his personality. Aside from the outgoingness, he was sort of what I envisioned myself to be.
In addition to being a cat, which let him climb things and jump high, he also for some reason had two abilities that I just ripped off from Batman. He has a "Catarang" ability, but it's not a weapon he owns so much as he can unsheathe his claws, and then threw them around like they were a Batarang. He also had a "Catling Hook" as well, but instead of being a gun/gadgtet Batman had on his belt, he can just shoot his claws out to grapple things. No, I didn't think about what would be connecting the claws to the handpaw. It had just as much thought as having the Catarang all be in one piece to begin with, when it should just be separate claws all 'rangin' around.
Oh yea, also he could do the Spin Dash that Sonic does.
Naturally, my other form also had those powers.
He was essentially my right hand cat in places where another character was unable to in my imaginary world (this other character is in this section too, just wait). He ran the land that I always went into whenever I was using my imagination.
He was created because I like cats and the color blue. What, were you expecting more? The Amazing World of Gumball didn't exist when I made this character, and all the other blue cat characters that I make can thank this one for their existences.
Blue Dog
I'm good at naming.
Much like Blue Cat, Blue Dog was also usually drawn in my style of stick figure. His tail was shorter and didn't curl as much, and his ears were round teardrops that drooped to the sides of his head.
While not used much, Blue Dog was, naturally, the antithesis to Blue Cat. BC was outgoing and playful, while BD kept to himself and was serious. He didn't stick around long, but his personality was placed onto another dog character (we'll get to him soon).
He doesn't have skills, aside from making sarcastic comments. Funny that I gave two dog characters snarky attitudes in the beginning, when it's usually cats that are characterized as such. Don't worry, you know that changes if you've been on this site for a while.
I think I made him because I wanted another character to play BC off of, but I still kept him blue, because I was obsessed with the color. If it was blue, I loved it (except for Sonic, but that was years ago).
The Blue Animals
Grouping these up together because they essentially had no personality.
This contains some other characters that were part of the Blue Fauna Group, namely Blue Bird, Blue Turtle, and Blue Fish. So in addition to the two types of mammals that stick in my brain, there is also an avian, a reptile, and a fish that got included with their antics. I only remember them in one "comic" that I made, and it doesn't even qualify as a comic, let alone a book.
Blue Bird didn't have ears and a tail, but they had a beak (triangle) and some wings (smooth front side, and smoothly bumpy back side). Blue Turtle was a hemisphere with some small legs, a tail, and a smaller circle head (no nose, either). Blue Fish was just combining two curved lines to make a fish, with dotted eyes. I don't remember giving them fins. Oh, and did I mention that this character stayed inside a fishbowl, unable to interact with the outside world?
Personality? Read first line above. This is the only amount of information I have on them.
Misc. Characters
Priz Owner
This character was stupid.
Priz was an average person, with average brown hair and brown eyes. Average build too. His only unique traits are his name, his shirt (yellow long sleeve with a blue cat head symbol), and his ability.
The ability was similar to my own when I did imaginary stuff: he could turn into a bipedal blue cat. I called him a Wilderkinn or something, meaning that it's random whenever he turns, instead of being controllable.
He was just the average guy.
His name was inspired by seeing the subtitle The Prisoner of Azkaban, from the Harry Potter series (back when I read the books and fully enjoyed the series). Strange that this is the second time we've encountered someone transforming into a blue cat (and third time mentioning a blue cat). I think it's because I enjoy the werewolf concept. Interesting.
Kim Osaki
Priz's girlfriend, that I gave him. She's got some sort of asian ethnicity, don't ask which though, as I didn't give it thought.
She's got black hair in a bob cut, with flat bangs. She had green eyes. Her figure was curvy.
Her only thing was that she might've done some magic.
I don't know fully remember what inspired me to give Priz a girlfriend. Maybe I was feeling lonely, and created an imaginary couple pairing to make up for it...
God, that's pathetic.

History
Everyone except for the Sonic characters were on my side, and the Sonic characters weren't. They were the "villains" in my imaginary world.
Why? Because I thought Sonic and Amy were cats, and learned that I was wrong.
Yes, that's why I didn't like them that much.
Don't worry, I am well past that now. Have been for some time.
Also notice the UNDERTALE characters. I was in this world for longer than I should've been.
Regardless, that's pretty much it. The next group, the Plushies, are linked quite strongly with this group too, but more on that in the next post.
