OC design challenge: make a character who has something attached to their head that wouldn't normally be there. Animal ears? Antlers? too pedestrian. gimme something weird, then explain how it got there
Quinneapolis
maybe it's a fish. Why's a fish sticking out of their head? that's a hook
Quinneapolis
instant intrigue

i had an extremely skittish robot OC who had a knife stuck in their head permanently and resisted any and all attempts to get it out by running away and/or laserbeam spamming in panic
Quinneapolis
that's good, although with a robot it's easier to explain
kamikasei
A crown of bioluminescent coral that's actually a symbiotic implant that interfaces with their brain and acts as a cyberpunk jack / LIDAR telepathy point
Quinneapolis
see? that INSTANTLY owns
moontouched
hell yeah
birthday snake
...
birthday snake
I don't know if that pun was intended
birthday snake
but
Quinneapolis
I don't know what pun you're talking about so
moontouched
i think it was the fish/hook thing
Quinneapolis
oh
Quinneapolis
no that was not intended
moontouched
maybe??
Quinneapolis
I've got one, lemme crack open ms paint
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/3hP2rTaQMrIWpWAZsDxHDS.png it's an alient symbiote with psychic powers. they fight as a team
Quinneapolis
attached to their head is another, smaller OC
kamikasei
Also do these have to be permanent-ish fixtures or is, like, shrapnel admissable
Quinneapolis
partial credit
kamikasei
Because there are all kinds of possibilities for things that got stuck in/on someone's head one time.
Quinneapolis
the easier it is to explain, the fewer points awarded
Usagi
slowly looks at 'the hating girl'
Quinneapolis
the who
Usagi
its a manga abt a girl with an arrow through her head
ღ zipper noises
a novice magic practitioner super fucked up an advanced spell and now the book said spell was being read from is fused to the top of this idiot's head somehow, and if their buddy makes one more comment about the new convenient book stand because of their height, someone's gonna get their ass kicked--
Usagi
she's got a sister w a fork in her own head too
Quinneapolis
yeah I can't top that
Usagi
holysh
Quinneapolis
but neither that nor the hating girl is an OC
moontouched
someone who has like, five novelty mugs wedged in their skull
Quinneapolis
"it's a long story"
Usagi
well obvisously
but it does mean we cant use those things now
if anyone was even going to think of...monkey???
holysh
moontouched
it was a 'freak pottery accident'
moontouched
that's as much as they'll elaborate
Quinneapolis
one of them says "I got five novelty mugs fused to my skull and all I got was this stupid novelty mug"
ღ zipper noises
novice mage is looking for a way to unfuse the book from their head but that search has been taking a while and they've gotten used to it being there in the meantime so it's fine it's whatever
⏏️ndrusi
this is just robot master design 101
kamikasei
Cat ears, but instead of the ears of a human-sized cat, their ears are each very small cats growing out of their head
⏏️ndrusi
omg
kamikasei
They can't hear shit because the cats are almost always either meowing or purring
kamikasei
Wait I have to explain how they got there
kamikasei
A wizard did it
⏏️ndrusi
alternatively, they can hear, but the information gets filtered through the cats' understanding

The fish attached to the guy's head is actually an alien policeman that has borrowed his body. The fish gives him superpowers but also constantly tries to get him to fight space crimes. He hates the whole situation and has invested in hats in a desperate attempt to pretend this isn't happening
Gabiluzbad
I'm imagining a kind of One Punch Man atmosphere
Gabiluzbad
lots of INSANELY hype battles but the main character looks ridiculous and complains a lot because he wants his life to be more boring
kamikasei
Sounds like a weird hybrid of Parasyte, Birdy the Mighty, and OPM, yeah
A Grinning DM
I don’t remember if it was CAH or R-rated Superfight that had “a unicorn but with a dildo for a horn” but now I’m trying to figure out the backstory to it
Gabiluzbad
a bit of Space Patrol Luluco too
