Description See, this is why it's so hard for me to choose a proper handicap for my upcoming OC... There are too many terrible, horrible jokes about both...
Anyhoo, for details (and help, PLEASE help, I need that) check her out here:Β

I think the amputee thing sounds pretty cool. It gives her something badass, in my opinion.Β

I do like the amputee part, and I think I might go with that, and save the blind-factor for another character.

she looks so adorable especially the top left! XD I don't think you'd have too much fun with the hair joke if she were blind, though....

Hmmm.... So you're trying to pick between her being either blind or an amputee? Β I like both ideas, but I know you just want to choose one. Β I like the idea of her losing her leg in an accident. Β It would lead to an intriguing backstory for this character. Β But that's just me. Β 

Also, I like this new OC of yours. Β She's very pretty! Β Do you have a name for her yet?

Thanks - yeah, it's like... ridiculously difficult to choose a handicap for her But her design is still very much WIP... I think I'm going to stick with her freckles and bucket-teeth, to sort of diminish her beauty. I don't mind pretty characters, but I'm not much for beautiful imperfect personas.

And no, I have a couple in the works, but I always want to find meaningful names, or names I feel fit into the world.

I actually adore the design of this OC in the left lower corner.
The way she looks, probably pondering why she's putting up with Edith's jokes, I love it!

You're right though, both handicaps would serve way too many reasons to draw her in various (hilarious) scenes.
Though I'm still a sucker for the amputee - I just get fascinated by how they helped people with an amputee back in those days.

Amputee WOULD be awesome, mainly because she'd still be quite efficient as Lyburns private secretary, and able to handle all his paper-work... My original plan was for her to be blind, but still able to write perfect English, thanks to amazing penmanship... She wouldn't be able to read the documents of course, which is an issue I still haven't figured out.

As an amputee she'd be capable of working for Lyburn still, but there's also something incredibly charming about her being blind, mainly because she'd be able to freak out people, and I can see her loving making people uncomfortable, and be quite the cynic...
Anyhoo, whether a blind character or an amputee, she'd definitely be cynical towards most people, without any hope in a prosperous future with a family - she's put that dream of hers aside, and focuses only on work...Β

If she were blind, then she can hang out with Barretta and Goldie and Eddie can make jokes together. Β And there's always waving her leg and chucking at people...so give her both!! Β My logic is flawless!!

TELL ME MORE ABOUT THESE AMAZING LOVELY LADIES OF YOURS!!!!!!!!!!

And yes... yes your logic IS fucking flawless! Either I'll have to throw BOTH disabilities after this little mousette, OR I just have to create a new oc, to make sure I can use BOTH!

I WILL I PROMISE!! I'M TOO BUSY STARING AT YOUR SEXY NEW MALE OC THOUGH, SO IT MIGHT TAKE A WHILE!!

Β  No, really, I'll PM you more details, I need feedback on something anyway and you're one of the very few (four) people I trust to actually talk about my original junk with anyway.

Either way, I would be happy!! Seriously, I've already started sketching a picture for a limb joke, so let me know if it's her or draw the new OC so I can finish!

Thanks - she's still SO much in the works though... I'm afraid to make her too identical to Edith and Ginny in personality, and I really want to avoid the spoilt brat attitude, so I'm kinda struggling with her character
