If a certain field is missing or not specific enough, then it is open to interpretation.
For example, if a character's sexuality is not given, then you can let it be anything you want.
And if the "gender" field only says "Male" or "Female" without specifying further, it means that the character presents as either male or female.
However, please do not stray away from information that is given!

About
Sparky is a cheerful girl who once stood for something. She hides her trauma behind bright smiles and is almost uncapable of taking anything seriously. Usually she looks happy to other people, but she can turn agressive at the drop of a pin. She is currently the bodyguard of Animus.
Biography
Relationships
ribbon
Ribbon and Sparky have the same birthday, though Ribbon was two years older than Sparky. Ribbon showed Sparky the ropes around Hillslope, taught her to cook and bake, and asked her to investigate the attack on Starry. Sparky was about to take all the caring she gave her for granted. She couldn't have been more mistaken.
Gratitude gets you far, Sparky. Very far.
amber
Sparky is Amber's daughter. Sparky loves her almost obsessively. Amber seems to be more focused on Willow, however.
peacock
Peacock is Sparky's step-father and reincarnation. Sparky hates him because he didn't match up to the perfect father (Jackal) in her mind.
Peacock, on the other hand, is deep in conflict as he both hates who he was in the past, but also desparately wants to be who he was in the past.
willow
Willow is Sparky's half-sister, with the same mother (Amber) but different fathers. Willow is the one who understands Sparky the most, because of her mind-reading.
ironheart
Ironheart is Sparky's step-brother. Sparky and Ironheart are locked in an eternal childish sibling rivalry despite not meeting each other for very long and growing into adults.
pearl
Sparky took care of Pearl like she's her daughter. However, as they ran out of money and was struggling to move forward in Sylvandia, she found herself also looking at Pearl and seeing not a person, but a machine for producing pearls.
nightsun
Sparky is Nightsun's wife.
They're both bisexual and deep in the closet. They both know the other is bisexual. They're both trying all sorts of gimmicks to make the other come out.
Nightsun is an agent sent to get close to Sparky in order to get information on Animus. (No, I don't know who sent him, gimme some time.) Sparky knows this. He knows she knows. She knows he know she knows. They both pretend to not know anything.
Trivia
- She twiddles her whisker-like hair when lying.

This is pure shitpost. Peacock asks the three kids what "int" stands for. They each have their own answers.

This is some vague plot idea in my head, that Elegance and Sparky got kidnapped and that's what set Sparky on her path as a bodyguard.
The song is 虫儿飞, or Glowbugs Fly. I translated the lyrics because I like it and I don't think anyone else ever translated them. I am not a translator and two of my worst school subjects are Chinese and English, so don't yell.

Something I drew out of boredom and never bothered to shade.

Tephra, Sparky, and Melody as adults. They all became what's opposite of themselves.
Tephra is a cop, maintainer of law and order, when he used to live a life of crime. Sparky is a bodyguard for Animus, living for other people, guarding the interests of the few. Melody is a private detective, meddling in other people's affairs, when he used to keep to himself and mind only his own business.

To this day I still don't know why I drew this.

Peacock's family, all mysteriously happy. This is an old drawing; now, Amber never met Ironheart. And Fantasy's necklace should be light blue.

Drawing Permissions Click for more
(Nearly identical to my Artfight permissions anyways.)
Character Permissions
- The strand of hair on her left cheek is longer, touching on her chin, while the strand on her right cheek is shorter.
- The highlights on her hair goes down, up, and then down.
- Her pupils point towards the middle! Unless she's looking at somewhere in particular.
Global Permissions
- The marks on the girls' faces are eyelashes, not face paint! In my art style girls have eyelashes and boys don't (cartoon logic) but feel free to do whatever you like to do in your style! (Including drawing it as face paint; just tell me so I know you didn't mistake the eyelashes for face paint.)
- None of my characters have real-world skin colors! Their races are just whether they have ears or horns on their heads, so everyone's skin color is the same.
- You can draw whatever color you want as long as:
- It's not that weird like literal green alien skin or something.
- Basically, draw human-colors or black (literally) / white (literally) / gray.
- Make sure all of them are the same if you draw more than one of my character together.
- (My default is Asian though for your reference.)
- The same applies to hair color. Default black, make sure all of them have the same color.
- Please color pick their accents (hex values above).
- The highlights on their hair are parts of the design, and are optional.
- Go wild:
- Basically anything not mentioned in Don't. This involves:
- Gore (any type).
- Draw them interacting with each other (mine, yours, or anyone else's).
- Change anything about them (outfit, gender, species, whatever) (just make sure I can still tell who it is).
- Go wild!
- Basically anything not mentioned in Don't. This involves:
- Don't:
- NSFW, 18+, whatever.
- This involves artistic nudity.
- Or anything that sexualizes them.
- And shipping (except Sparky and Nightsun (not even Amber and Peacock)) (friendly interaction is, of course, allowed).
- Hateful stuff, duh.
- NSFW, 18+, whatever.
