Discussion Prompt #8

[meganehaven]

How does your OC's current design compare to when you first made them?
Do they look the same, or perhaps go under a huge redesign? Maybe they have a new scar, different outfit(s), or something else different?

comment below your thoughts! <3

Ohhh, thanks for sharing Sylvie's early design. There's something about buff characters that go by something other than he/him that just makes me go "gender is a social construct" in a good way.

It reminds me of this character in the Arcana Game that goes by he/him but is never address with masculine words like man/sir/etc.

I love it when authors play with gender presentation of their characters (idk if that's the appropiate phrasing).

it was thanks to my friend who has an agender character that very much uses she/her but isn't a woman/doesn't use feminine terms and prefers neutral + masc/is also truly 'gender is a social construct', so it bled out to me wanting to explore it for sylvie and well--here i am 4 years later LOL

huh... i know--was it asra? i thought asra was they/them but its been YEARS since i've even touched arcana, but i know there was convo around asra--OH yeah wiki says he's nonbinary yep yep
