Description Application for 's Race of Dreams tournament.

I know I've been really inactive and this isn't one of the things on that uber long list of things i said i'd do, but i was playing Kingdom Hearts 2 and when i found this tournament i couldn't not enter

i'm such a child getting into Kingdom Hearts at my age but seriously... a game where you run around with donald and goofy and save the universe with the help of all the disney characters... what's not to like!? OvO -shot-

I got carried away with the swords a little bit ._. (too much fun they were ) and i misjudged the time so the app's incomplete but i'll colour the rest after i get back from holiday, so i hope this is ok just now for the entry deadline

and i will get round to doing all the things on said uber long list but just now here is yet another new OC - Aden

btw just to explain - his hair fdkjhfdsjk i don't even know just look at him from the side, doesn't look as strange there, i dunno he'll just side-step towards everyone in the tournie or something -shot-
and i don't even know what's going on with his sassy hand on hip thing but he's not sassy just to be clear orz


KH Originals: Race of Dreams
Written Application

Personal
Name: Aden Castor
Age: 17
Date of Birth: June 7th
Hair Color: Brown
Eye Color: Green
Height: 6’0
Weight: 64kg
Significant marks/scars/details: Tribal tattoo on his left shoulder, two scars – one on his left upper-arm covered by a strap, one on his right forearm covered by his glove/brace.
Race: Human
Class: Warrior/Hunter
Affiliation: Light
Home world: Achillea Plains
Current World of Residence: Traverse town/World Traveller

Personality
Good Characteristics: Confident and Brave, Never gives up without a fight. Competitive, Determined and sometimes serious when given a task, but generally laid-back and easy to talk to if you get to know him. Very loyal to those he trusts.
Strengths: Tough with great physical strength and defence. Has good Stamina and Endurance, but also reasonably agile. Has good instinct and survival skills. Good at multi-tasking.
Bad Characteristics: Slightly awkward with strangers – always wary of people he doesn’t know but quickly loosens up once he gets to know them. His bravery often leads to him being reckless; he doesn’t really know how to quit when he’s ahead and tends not to think about things before jumping into them. Is often overconfident in his abilities and takes a lot of risks (apart from in social situations), with some causing harm to others. His reputation for hurting other with his recklessness has led to him to be wary of others and keep his distance at first.
Flaws: Terrible with magic, never really uses it and can only use fire magic at a push, so is vulnerable to strong magic and elemental attacks. Dangerous around fragile things, forgets his own strength. Not much for intellectual challenges or research and also finds it hard to concentrate on one thing at a time.
Fears: Heights
Quirks/Strange Habits: Can’t smile straight without concentrating, it’s always lopsided in some way. Always scratches the back of his head if he’s thinking. He’s ambidextrous in a way – His right arm is stronger but his left arm is faster and more agile – a trait passed down through his family.

Battle
Weapon Name: Artemis and Apollo
Weapon Description: A set of twin swords crafted in the image of flames, boosts strength and fire casting.
A pair of Swords passed down to Aden through his family – Apollo is large and heavy, Artemis is light and quick. The swords are enchanted so that fire magic can be channelled through them.
Additional Items: Inferno Brace – reduces Fire/Dark elemental damage by 80%, raises defence. Given to him by his father to compensate for Aden’s vulnerability to magic attacks.
Animal bone chain – Self-made by Aden from some of the teeth and bones of animals he has successfully hunted. It is a custom of hunters on Achillea Plains to wear chains like this to demonstrate skill. When Aden left his world it was enchanted by the three good fairies to change his form when visiting worlds where a normal human’s presence would be unusual.

Stats
Strength: 9/10
Defence: 7/10
Magic: 2/10
Magic Defence: 4/10
Speed: 5/10
Agility: 6/10
Endurance: 7/10
Intelligence: 5/10
Special Attack: Solar Storm
Style: Relies on his physical abilities as he can very rarely use magic. Varies attacks by alternating between using Artemis and Apollo – using Artemis for quick slashes and using Apollo for defending or devastating physical blows. The blades suit his style as he holds Artemis in his (more agile) left hand, and Apollo in his (stronger) right hand.

Boyfriend/Girlfriend/Crush: none .... so far
Pets: Caduceus (Cad for short) – a rare animal from Achillea Plains that followed Aden home for food and has never left him since. This creature is believed to be part of the cat family, though it has been argued that it is actually a type of squirrel or lemur.

Give a synopsis of your character's story.
Achillea Plains was a harsh world in both weather and wildlife, so only the hardy can survive there. Hunting was the most common occupation on the plains, with the majority of food and materials being resourced from wild beasts. Aden was born into the Castor family, one of the two head hunting families on the plains that shared leadership over the others who settled with them, commanding a tribe of hunters as big as an army. Aden was trained to become a hunter from a young age along with the other boys in the tribe, as it was custom for every male in the tribe to be trained this way. As the eldest son possessing his family’s ambidextrous trait, he was chosen to wield Artemis and Apollo - swords that had been passed down through the Castor family since the first hunters settled on the plains. Eventually Aden would be required to take his place as the head of the family and joint head of the tribe, although he did not want to.
Aden lived there unaware of other worlds or the heartless, until the day the plains were attacked and the heart of the world was consumed. Aden and his friend Merc had been forced to stay and be acting heads while the adults went out to fight the heartless. Aden eventually couldn’t stand waiting any longer and set out to help the tribe. He was too late, as he ran the world’s heart was consumed and Aden was transported to Traverse Town, his friends and family nowhere to be seen.
He befriended Leon and his group after fighting alongside them to clear Traverse town of heartless and continued to fight the heartless there as well as doing odd jobs around town to keep himself busy. Eventually he tired of just fighting and decided to set out to find his family. Cid lent Aden a gummi ship to travel, with the condition that Aden would use it to search for the Ansem report as well as search for his family. Aden meets Sora and Gwen on his travels and joins them in their quest to restore the worlds that were consumed.
After Sora succeeds and seals the door to kingdom hearts, Aden returns to traverse town as his homeworld is yet to be restored. He sticks with Leon’s group when they move back to Hollow Bastion and has been there since, doing odd jobs in shops and doing anything else he can to help restore the World to its original state, Though he still waits for the day that he can restore his own world.

OK done. That synopsis probably makes no sense, or it's messing with all the rules of the game's plot i'm not sure, please someone tell me if it is and i'll fix it as soon as i can!

Hope he's ok for entering! i can't think of much to say now since i'm supposed to be packing atm and i'm FREAKING OUT HJFHDFHDJK but hope you like him! and looking forward to the tournie! (and possibly messing about with Aden and drawin him as a lion, or mermaid or something embarassing like that )

hi, no it's no trouble at all! i mean i don't know if i'm the best person to ask but i could try

what is it you're having problems with? OvO is it just drawing males in general? lol i had real troubles with that at the start, i think loads of people do xD

lita-bug In reply to lorellashray [2012-07-16 23:11:07 +0000 UTC]

Okay. XD

It's just drawing them in general. I think I have a good look on how to draw their faces, but I haven't really gotten past actually sketching the basic parts of their faces. XD

lorellashray In reply to lita-bug [2012-07-18 23:42:50 +0000 UTC]

ah i think i know what you mean. there are a lot of helpful tutorials on the internet for differentiating between them eg. this vid on youtube is really helpful -[link] - it basically explains the science behind it and the real life physical differences between male and female faces.
though if you want the short version - basically the way i think of it - guys are more angular in general - so more sharp corners and straight lines. girls are softer - so more curves and circular shapes.
if you're drawing guys in a shoujo anime style then try making the eyes smaller/less round than when you draw girls and lower the eyebrows so they are closer to the eyes. it's actually amazing how much of a difference just that makes. same with the jaw - if you make it more angular or square then the character usually looks a lot more masculine.
the same kind of rules can apply to the body. generally guys have broader shoulders, and are definitely not as curvy - they have a kind of triangular shaped torso whereas girls are more like hourglasses, and what always helps is bulking them up - even just slightly. eg if you look at the cover of KH2 [link] and compare sora and kairi's arms - sora's are more bulked up but not as extreme as riku - sora is still skinny but looks definitely more masculine because they've bulked him up slightly. so basically you don't have to make guys body builders for them to look masculine - just slightly more muscule in places can make the difference you want
sorry i know i'm rambling a bit, but honestly there are hundreds of different things that can be done to define guys and girls, though these are kind of the most obvious things i think - more angles, smaller eyes, lower eyebrows, angular jaw. and for body - more angles, broader shoulders and more muscles a slightly thicker neck helps too.
it is difficult to get the hang of it since it's almost like drawing in a different style, but references help A LOT and the more you study real life anatomy etc and practice it, the easier it gets to draw in your own style basically practice makes perfect (cheesy and cliché but true xD)
not sure if that covers what you were asking for, so if there's anything else feel free to ask so long as you don't mind another wall o' text 'OTL
hope it helps though!

So..... i pretty much love everything about him! HE'S SO CUTE!

i love his weapons. they're so cool!

so I'm judging by his ambidexterious quirk that he would be left hand dominant? (because your strength is going to be in your less dominant hand!)

very cool

YES! that's exactly it! like he'd use his left hand for writing and eating etc, and his right for .. throwing a ball or something lol i forgot to mention that, and thank you! xD
