Introducing the Touhou OC Gifting - The Reveal!
« on: September 22, 2014, 01:44:03 AM »


SPOILERS: Full methodology here.

CAW! CAW! Hello, friends of Gensokyo! As we all know, no entry into Touhou fandom is complete until you've made your very own Touhou OC. But this can take precious minutes you could be spending online, when all you really want to do is get your OC out there into the medium of your choice. How many times have you lamented, "If only there was a way to create a complete Touhou profile and backstory on my OC while posting on MotK!"?

The Bunbunmaru is happy to announce that, for an as yet undetermined limited time, we are offering complete profiles of OCs to any and all respondents. As an added bonus, we will later on reveal how your profiles were generated. All our reporters need from you is to give us a short interview. Would you mind answering the following questions?

First, choose one of the following:
Human
Magician
Shrine Maiden
ZUNtastic Youkai (WARNING: Only brave souls choose this.)
Hermit
Monk
Kappa
Tengu
Fairy
Ghost
Celestial
Lunarian
Oni

And one of these~
Forest of Magic
Bamboo Forest of the Lost
Youkai Mountain
Misty Lake
Higan
Some crazy-ass hut near the Human Village
Makai
HEAVEN
The Moon
The Underworld

Thank you! Now the questions:
1. Name one thing in your room right now, and a number from 1 to 20.
2. Who is your favorite anime director right now?
3. I find the discovery of the Rosetta Stone to be [ADJECTIVE].
4. What is the next song on your music playlist of choice?
4(a). If you chose ZUNtastic Youkai, please answer the following: Who is your favorite scientist?
5. You wake up to find yourself laying in a field of soft grass, under a blue sky. It is warm, and there is a soft, pleasant breeze. You sit up, and see vast, green hills before you. Towards the horizon, you see the deep purple shadows of mountains. You realize at once that you are in:________.
6. WILDCARD! You may answer only one of these two questions:
Go here and post results.
Apart from posting here, what activity involving actual physical movement do you or did you once enjoy?

Post your replies here, and our reporters will in turn post a complete profile of your OC, with a backstory of no less than five whole sentences! Armed with your brand spankin' new OC, you can march with pride into the world of fandom, ready to give life to your OC in whatever creative endeavor you desire.

Be aware! Tengus have shifts to work, so profiles will likely comes in blocks. We do this because it's fall, when the harvest season begins. A good time to enjoy what the year has brought us, and to drive newspaper revenues upupup!

So, let's hear it, and you'll have it~!

Full disclosure on how these were generated will be revealed later on. For now, I will say that your profile number x 100 = your age. Because everyone is super old in Gensokyo.

Let's see here... considering the keywords keys, wheels, and obviously the top hat, the robes are going to be steampunk-styled.

Now, on her characterization... considering some of the things I put in as answers to the interview (especially the song, it's instrumental hard rock in case anyone wonders), she actually acts rather rough as opposed to how people expect, especially when looking at how she dresses. She claims that her preference towards solitude is pretty much a "f*** you I do what I want" statement, but she's really just embarrased of her roughness.

Tell me if I done goofed somewhere.

Not really close on any of those counts, as far as how these were generated is concerned. But it's fun to see people guessing!

Anyway, full disclosure is pending, no worries. Probably in a few days from now, even.

commandercool! Here is your OC!
Name: Urobuchi Pakanamaan
Character Title: Dusty Giraffe Youkai of Middle Earth
Species: Giraffe Youkai
Ability: Manipulation of precipitation in the last hour
Age: 1,878,900 years old
Occupation: Washer woman
Location: Bamboo Forest of the Lost
Game Appearance: Stage 1 Boss
Story: Urobuchi is the official washer woman of Eientei. Her mournful singing can be heard throughout the Bamboo Forest, often frightening travellers. She wears flowing scarlet robes, and a golden crown on her head. No one knows where the crown came from. Can be charmed with gifts of carrots or apples.

 :D

Washer woman of what, exactly?

Also, I'm reading this on my lunch break at work, and there are literally two apple cores on my desk and a mostly-eaten carrot in my left hand right now as I type this. How did you know?!
I made a PADHerder. It's probably out of date though.

BB! Here is your OC!
Name: Giana Urobotchi
Character Title: Chocolatey Fairy of Denial
Species: Fairy
Ability: Manipulation of Cool Weather
Age: 2,953,300 years old
Occupation: Healer
Location: Youkai Mountain
Game Appearance: Extra Boss
Story: Giana, despite being a fairy, is not to be trifled with. She can make the temperatures in the immediate area slightly cooler than they were before, but can also heal herself from damage done to her. However, this healing takes a lot of energy out of her. She wears a green dress and a wide-brimmed straw hat. Known for her catch phrase, "Ahhh YEEYEEYEEYEEEEEE!"

She's like Diet-Cirno :V but wide-brimmed straw hats are cute as all heck so I completely approve. Thank you!
Touhou fan since 2008.

Faves quicklist:
Yukari - Byakuren - Lily White - PCB - UFO - Necrofantasia - Cosmic Mind - Shining Needle - not into the fighters - not into score play - enjoy storytelling and theorycraft

Eientei's laundry. You don't think they wear the exact same clothes every day, do you? That would make for one funky mansion.

I have the feeling Giana Urobotchi could totally take Cirno in a duel. You're welcome!

That wasn't so much of a guess at how things work as it is just an attempt at expanding on my OC. Guess I'll continue that elsewhere later.
