Omorphia has always felt like she didn't quite belong in the castle.
She looks nothing like her family.
Those that she shares similar resemblance are so much smaller than her.
She's not allowed outside of her wing of the castle and has been reprimanded several times for trying to do so.

Being caged like a criminal, yet being treated like a 'princess'.

She's the pet. Or at least feels like it...

This is Omorphia at 14-16 years old.

Omorphia was probably the closest I have to a character that directly references my own life out of her and Retsis back when they were my main sonas. Having dealt with negative body issues throughout all my life her insecurities about being larger than all those that looks like she does and not looking anything like her family sort of mirrors that.

By the time she reaches 22-23 she feels more secure in how she looks, making her own image for herself rather than wearing what she's expected to wear. Instead of staying plain as possible in order to not be noticed too much she changes her hair, her clothes, customizes everything as much as possible so that she CAN'T be ignored. If she's going to be different, she's going to be EXTRAVAGANT! \o/

Unfortunately I don't think I have near the confidence in myself as Omorphia has when she's in her early twenties. Even if it's false confidence.

I'm still somewhere stuck between the shy, awkward girl and wanting to be the light of the party so others have fun.
