Do we ask now?

Uh, yeah.

Where and when did you come up with your OC?

Interesting story. I used to use Kit Frost, an ice fox. Some years ago I wanted to reinvent my sona to start a clean slate, and since I'm a Leo, I decided to go with a lion sona. I hadn't worked him out totally, but he was a winged lion. Kind of a gryphon without the eagle head.

Then a group I hung out with all made Pokemn characters. All of them Eeveelutions. I called Flareon because by then, I had changed my element from ice to fire. I started basic, but I added scars mainly because I enjoy them and how they add toughness to a character. Later came the Deus Ex shades and the God Hand tattoo, as well as the collarbone Roman numeral VIII tattoo. I went through 3 different backstories and personalities before settling on one, only the latter two can be seen here on FA. I made friends with  SoldierSunstar and together we brainstormed ways to expand our characters' conjoined backstories and lore.

So there you have it, the creation of Leon. About a year ago I decided to give him the last name Embers. Popped into my head. Sounded right.

Well, that truly was fascinating.
Its good to hear how most people here come up with their
sonas. So you have like 6 other friends to be the remaining ones?

Nah, Raiga (Sunstar) and I split the characters between us, and I gave one of the females to my friend  rikawolf.

Would be cool if each were a different person though.

It would've been pretty cool
