Recollections: Magnanimous

Hello there,

I'm piecing together a character for this. This is such a unique and thoughtful concept! So detailed, I love it. And now that I have free time, I'm interested in seeing how this story unfolds.

Cheers!

Awwww. So sweet. Happy New Years to you.

The original was so magical and dreamy and such a vibe. Eventhough it was short-lived, I loved it immensely. It's unfortunate this one never picked up.

I wish I had time to write on here these days. :(

Hi! Sorry I haven't been able to post. I thought I'd be able to juggle my workload and writing on here, but it just doesn't seem feasible.

I'm sorry again, I really thought I could make it work. :(

@ZxyxZemon

Hey im sorry.

I'm still here.

I just took on some freelance work this week and have been cramming to finish it this weekend before my normal Monday rush.

Will try to get out a post as soon as I'm able.

Cheers!

@ZxyxZemon

No worries.

My job is pretty hectic, so I don't think I would have been able to post today anyways.

I'm usually swamped during weekdays, so unless I get a break period, I'll primarily be a weekend poster.

As for a Discord, I approve. It's the quickest way for us to keep in touch and keep everyone updated with what's going on, like if we can't post or need to quickly address any other matters.

And also friendly camaraderie. :)

Cheers!

@Renny

I'm glad you came to this conclusion to be honest. There is absolutely nothing wrong with Provoke. :)

I think it's kind of just a matter of personal taste. I only went with an abstract concept cause it fit the theme of the character I was making. And I tend to favour more abstract concepts to straight forward ones.

My favorite HxH character is Neon Nostrade if that's any indicator to what I like.

But, the beauty of HxH is that there is a really nice mix of simplistic and abstract nen abilities, and they're all awesome. And we need both to make a more diverse story and world.

Plus, a cute kid who can shoot deadly finger bullets is dope AF! Having a long range sniper sharpshooter type of nen ability is really useful, especially in a world like HxH.

Océane

Music Theme - Mothers

Océane

Informal or Preferred Name- N/A.

Age- 19.

Birth Place- Yorknew City.

Birth Date- Unknown. Some time during the rainy season 19 years ago.

Gender Or Preferred Pronoun- Female.

Height & Weight- 5'5". Thin build.

Notable Physical Attributes-
Enhanced Memory: Perhaps she was born with such a trait or maybe it simply developed as she grew older, but Oceane has an immaculate, photogenic memory. She can recall experiences far back into the past as if they just happened yesterday. She can describe them down to every vivid detail. Her memory is so advanced, that she can remember the sensations she felt at the time, physical, emotional or otherwise. She remembers faces like photos in a picture book. She never forgets a face once she sees it in person.

Nen

Discovery of Nen-
In a very unusual manner, Oceane learned how to use nen in her sleep. Every night, a strange figure appeared in her dreams. In her dreamworld, she would eventually become familiar with this nebulous figure who in due time would teach her how to use nen in her slumber. This peculiar way in which she learned to use nen might explain why her Nen ability is the way it is. Oceane believes the figure is her mother.

Nen Type- Specialist

General Ability-
Because of how she has lived most of her life, her offensive and defensive capabilities are not particularly strong. However, due to these circumstances, Oceane has developed very powerful Ten, Zetsu, and In, allowing her to effectively hide her unique aura from people, which is especially useful when she uses her nen ability. She also possesses Gyo so she can see the aura emanating from others.

Hatsu- 100 Fluttering Nightmares
Oceane's nen ability allows her to spew 100 moth-shaped sprites from her mouth. She can control these sprites and see through their eyes, making her especially adept at surveillance since she can use them to watch over many different areas at once. It's like she has split her consciousness into 100 little smithereens and scattered them out into the world. When enough of her sprites work together, they can move objects or repel assaults, or even levitate her, giving her a limited form of telekinetic-like capabilities.

Finally, when one of Oceane's sprites lands on someone who is sleeping, she can enter their dreams. While in their dreams, she can simply visit and witness what the person is dreaming or she can take control of their dreams and make them have beautiful dreams or horrific nightmares. While in someone's dreams, Oceane uses In to conceal her presence. The dreamer cannot see or communicate with her until she allows them to.

While using her nen ability, Oceane cannot speak, a condition of her Hatsu. Another downside to her nen ability is that her sprites are somewhat fragile and can be destroyed if they receive enough direct force. When one of her sprites is destroyed, its like she's lost one of her sensors. The sprites replenish every 24 hours, but for the ones that are destroyed prematurely before returning to her body, she cannot create any new ones until the next day.

Weapons or Equipment- No weapons. But she does usually carry around a sketchbook and a quill. A few bottles of salve to help her sleep nightmare-free.

Trained Skills or Knowledge- Oceane is a skilled artist, though she reserves her talent primarily for sketching faces that she finds memorable or interesting, even if the face she draws belongs to someone she only met in their dreamworld. She can sing beautifully too.

Notable Scars or Physical Appearance Traits- Oceane seems to always have a dreamy, misty kind of gaze. This ever present look of longing for something or someone that's not there. She also has an unusual marking on her tongue, which appeared there after the figure from her dreams stopped visiting and left her only with nightmares instead.

Notable Personality Traits/Personality-
Oceane is a mysterious young woman with a dream-like gaze. She always looks like she's searching for someone. Her disposition is rather peculiar. She's graceful like a cat, but her mentality seems a bit off and incomprehensible. She enjoys socializing immensely, but lacks proper etiquette, and therefore, is brutally honest about her feelings, which at times, may offend people or make them second guess her intentions. However, anything she says she does so with zero malice or hate in heart. Simply put, she speaks her mind because that was the first feeling she had. She's just very matter of fact.

This is a girl that has seen so many dreams from other people, that sometimes they infiltrate her current thought process and she'll randomly mention strange things. Most of the time, no one has absolutely any idea what she's talking about. Some of the things she says just sound made up.

She is not a very good liar. Oceane's emotional range and intelligence is somewhat limited and she never really shows emotional extremes on either side of the spectrum. While good natured, she can become clingy when she meets someone that peaks her interest or has a face that she deems "memorable". Under these circumstances, she may want to follow them, ask them endless questions, or get to know everything she can about them. This makes her a person who is somewhat easy to manipulate. Due to her honest and sincere nature, she has thing about her that makes people want to protect her.

Past Affiliations or Experience-
Heartless, an all female mob gang originating and currently operating in Yorknew City. This gang was formed by women who were battered, beaten, abandoned, cheated on or abused in any way. They now operate to reap their spoils, teach corrupt men a lesson, and get revenge. Oceane's affiliation in the gang was more circumstantial. She just happened to fall into them, though they eventually came to protect her like a prized jewel. But they also used her too, primarily for her nen ability.

Notable Relations-
Aarav

One of the current Heartless gang leaders. She is a conjurer type nen user. She has a suave personality and is sometimes mistaken for a man. She is extremely fond of Oceane and is very overprotective her, so much so that she acts as her protector. If someone really upsets Aarav, she displays an uncharacteristically sinister disposition. She's also tall, like 6'0".

Chrome

A member of the Heartless gang and also serves as Oceane's protector due to their big-sister/ittle-sister kind of dynamic. However, Chrome acts like a really strict teacher and scowls often. She can also be really sarcastic when annoyed. The nature of her nen ability is unclear.

Vlad Yulestarian

Oceane's rich and powerful businessman father. The nature of his nen ability is unclear, but it is believed to be very dangerous hence why he always wears a glove . She has not met her father in person, but has visited his dreams many times, though of course, he doesn't know that. She isn't even sure if he knows she's his daughter.

The Mother

The mysterious figure who appeared in Oceane's dreams and taught her how to use nen. Oceane has a striking resemblance to the being and believes it to be her mother. However, the current whereabouts and status of her actual mother are unknown. The Mother stopped visiting her dreams, and ever since then, Oceane has been plagued by nightmares every time she sleeps.

General History-
Oceane was born in Yorknew City, the bastard daughter of powerful businessman Vlad Yulestarian and his prostitute mistress, whose name Oceane does not know. After giving birth, Oceane's mother, in her naivete, thought Vlad would take care of her and his child. Of course, he denied that the baby was his child and left them to rot on the streets.

After a few years of being homeless, Oceane's mother realized she could no longer take care of her. And so, on a rainy moonlit night in spring, she abandoned Oceane at a cathedral when she was 3 years old. It was at this time when she would go into the sewers and stumble upon some members from the all female mob gang called Heartless. The gang would take her in and treat her as one of their own.

Some years later, a strange figure resembling herself would start to appear in her dreams. Of all the faces she remembers, her mothers is the only one that she can't recall. So she began referring to the mysterious dream being as Mother. Mother gave Oceane the longing and comfort she'd always been craving and looking for. Mother taught Oceane how to use nen, including the development of her Hatsu.

Over the years, Heartless became more wealthy and could afford the finer luxuries in life, the spoils of screwing over men, blackmailing them, and other criminal activities they managed to get away with. They moved Oceane to a penthouse suite at the top of a skyscraper, where, after discovering the nature of her nen ability, started using her to cast nightmares over men in the city below. Every night, they'd have her perform this act. Spew her moth-like sprites into 100 smithereens and scatter them across the city to infiltrate the dreams of the most heinous and corrupt men and give them the worst nightmares imaginable.

This would go on for years, but when mother stopped visiting her own dreams, her slumber soon turned into a time of nightmares as well. Oceane had to start taking a special salve every night to keep the nightmares at bay. Oceane wondered if she started having nightmares because of the nightmares she was inflicting onto others. She wanted to stop, but the Heartless gang leaders wouldn't let her. And so, caged like a bird at the top of a skyscraper, she spewed her moths once more. Carried by their gentle wings, she flew away from the gang, hoping to find a certain someone to put an end to her nightmares forever.

Thats the spirit! :)

I look forward to seeing your character revisions, and really, just new characters in general.

I'm always intrigued to see a diverse cast of characters and imagine their potential dynamics and interactions within a larger story.

Hunter X Hunter: Heavens Children

@Renny

You're being too critical on yourself.

But, I also think when you make a character, it should be a concept you love and can enjoy exploring.

And in any case, the RP hasn't started yet so it's not like you can't make adjustments right?

What aspects do u feel don't give off that HxH vibe? The backstory, the nen-ability, their personality?

I think once you figure out the aspects that are giving you doubt, you can try to change it up a bit.

Anyways, sorry. Not really my place to be giving out advice or anything. I just understand how it feels to doubt your character. I've been there plenty of times.

At the end of the day, you should be happy with what you've created. You know?

Hunter X Hunter: Heavens Children

The inspiration came to me for this one. :)

Hope everything checks out!

Cheers!
