Stolen from .

Write out the names of your characters and explain
1) how you thought of their name
2) what made you create the character in the first place
3) how the character has changed over time (if they have changed)
4) any random fun fact about that character

1) Nella Mastriani
a) I actually have no idea how I came up with Nella, might be based on Nala or my childhood nickname Nany, but her surname I kind of stole from Jess Mastriani from the show 1-800-MISSING. I'm not even a fan of the show much, but her character was reaaally cute and foremost, I LOVED the sound of her surname in Czech. That was before I realized how it was spelled and sounded without the "-ová" suffix Czech surnames use. But it kinda stuck anyway. -shrugs-
b) I needed to draw myself, obviously. (~~laprasek)
c) Oh man has she changed. For some reason I can't in hell decide anything about this character whatsoever. Her looks are finally relatively stable now - at least I hope so - and she's had a lot of names before but I'm not gonna go into that (it is possible I'll change it again... though I like this one, nothing seems right). Speaking of this "version" itself she has changed... for the worse. She's had this animal inside her she's been losing control over over time. She was also very adventurous and kind of cheerful before certain events her life. Other than that, she's stubborn like hell, she doesn't like changes, thus, she resists them... When it's in her power to do so.
d) She tried to commit suicide once.

2) Josh
a) When I became obsessed with the game Subarashiki Kono Sekai/The Words Ends With You, I hated the character named Joshua, maybe some of you know him. He's such an ass 8D; Anyway, Josh is, in a couple ways, similar to him, so I renamed him (his first name was Michael, based on my hated ex-classmate 8D; But I had to make it more subtle. -cough- ).
b) I needed a "VS." to Nella, so to speak.
c) He didn't change, except his name. He just became even more of an ass. But wait, there is actually one bigger change in his life - when he became/found out he was bisexual.
d) He's obsessed with computers and technical stuff. Likes photography, too.

3) Kirujaisu
a) It was on a hot summer evening after I watched Kill Bill - Volume 1, that a wave of fangasm had gotten into me and I was reading Kill Bill trivia on IMDB. There I found out that the japanese symbols on the Kill Bill poster spell "kiru biru" which is basically Kill Bill in japanese. Anyway, everyone who knows me a bit must know I _HATE_ (seriously, I HATE HIM) Chase from House, M.D. (for numerous reasons), so I was like yay... so if I wanted to kill Chase, I'd say kiru... kiru... kirujaisu? And that's basically how it happened. 8D;
b) The name, really. I liked the way it sounded so much I decided to make a badass killer loli to go with it.
c) A lot. She's a killer but she wasn't in the beginning. If I were to name everything that caused her drastic change, it would be at least my DA page long with the title "Kiru's Series of Unfortunate Events". Her life's just fucked up.
d) She's a Korean outlaw.

4) Siibeizu
a) This was the greatest accident ever XD I was just saying good night to my friend on ICQ one night ("dobrou"), but I had a HUGE typo moment so I ended up writing "siibeizu" (if you look carefully at your keyboard, you'll find out that the letters are right next to each other). After I stopped laughing my ass off, I read it and thought it actually sounded kind of nice.
b) Again, the name. She's only an accident and that's why I love her so much XD Seriously I never wanted to create a character like her, but a freaking Typo™ made me think all the stuff about her up XD I still find it rather funny.
c) Not one change there. No one knows about her history or background whatsoever; she'll forever stay a mystery. An archetype.
d) She's mute.

5) Jaderyn "Jade" Yamanashi
a) Jaderyn is just a name I randomly made up one evening when I was playing Jade Dynasty and had to name my main character, and I like it very very very VERY much. <3 As for the surname, I just googled for japanese surnames (I'm terrible at choosing surnames -points at Nella-)
b) I needed a TWEWY OC, obviously. had this idea that we could write a TWEWY fic together with our OCs. We haven't got to it yet, but I just had to have an OC 8D;
c) She... learned a lesson. 'Nuff said.
d) She has an incredible imagination but had never used it until she got to the UG and learned about psychs.

6) Elyse & Melissa
a) Elyse just kind of occurred to me as I thought about the character and somehow, my thought process led to the episode of House called "Fidelity" (1x07)(damn, ALL of my thought processes end up in House! 8D;;;; ) I had watched prior to the whole idea and I chose it because the name of the patient in that episode was Elyse. Melissa was kind of a side effect; I didn't really mean to create twins but.. it just happened, with Elyse, there was Melissa and I thought that just sounded like names for twins.
b) I'll just say I was thinking about main characters for a fic I'm writing. There's a little more to that, but I'll leave that underneath the cloak of mystery
c) They grew more mature and gained a good deal of courage as time passed by. Grew up from the little innocent girls into still innocent fighters. ^^
d) They smile ALL the time.

7) Chris
a) -shrugs- It was pretty much random, for once, I needed a common name, so to speak.
b) Another of the main characters for the fic I'm writing.
c) Yeah, he has changed like hell. But I won't spoil that for you
d) His animal form is the siberian husky.

8) Finn
a) Again, pretty much random. The first thing that occured to me as I thought of the character was Finn from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World (don't ask me, I don't know why, they're not even similar... maybe except for the voice) (played by Lara Cox, google her, she rocks). I grew up on that show and in honor of it, I decided to give her the name. Also because one n less and it would mean the end. It just fits.
b) The third of my main charas. Writing purposes.
c) Hell yeah, in the same way Chris did, but again, I'm not gonna spoil that for you because I'm a bitch. 8D
d) Her animal form is the snow leopard.

9) Astarte
a) Named after a character from the Epitaph manga, because Astarte simply kicked ass in it and her name fascinated me. I'M STILL WAITING FOR THE NEXT CHAPTER! D: (God... I really should do something about my nonexistent name-creating abilities and start thinking of my own names.)
b) ..Needed a Pokemon-myself-as-a-trainer OC like hundreds of other people . I mean come on. I still love that fandom. :3
c) Mmmmh... she gained a bit more confidence, but other than that, no. She's one of the three characters of mine that still live a wonderful life without dramatic fuck-ups. 8D;
d) At first, she wanted to become a nurse in a pokemon center, actually. She's a trainer now, but she's still pretty good at treating pokemon.

10 to make it even) Sabre
a) From the word "saber", it's that lame D:. She has this horn on her head that looks sort of like a scythe or a saber. Self-explantory. She's new in my team though and I'm not 100% sure I'll keep the name yet. Probably yes though.
b) X-MEN. Lately I've been experiencing a HUUUUGE wave of fangasm over X-men 8D; Seriously, HUGE. Which obviously leads to creating pointless OCs.
c) She found others like her and learned to accept the environment. (Not the other way around.)
d) SHE HAS CLAWS. -fangasm-

There's obviously more, but let's just stick with ten, my fingers are sore.
