TASK NUMERO UNO!!
Yes, that's my middle name. 8D


Child's Name: Fenchurch

Full Description of Child: Should be female, obviously, but not overtly feminine at the stage of puberty. More on the androgynous side, with unsettling "I have a secret" smiles and jerky spiderish poses abound.

Pretty pallid muted-tone skin, with unhealthy grayish hair in any shade you think would work best- but it should probably be on the longish side. If you want to go straight white or black, go ahead. I'd like to see some overexaggerated emphasis on the shadows and highlights if you'd like to try messing around with that. The eyes would also be muted and with gray whites, and irises / pupils of a slightly darker or lighter shade. So yeah. Lots and lots of gray on this kid. XD

This main look would persist from baby to adult, with obvious changes in body type. Through to the teen stage Fenny would probably become quite skinny and ungainly, and look pretty spiderish. She might look a little pissed off that she's been stuck in not only a tangible physical form, but an awkward four-limbed humanoid CHILD, but the wicked, slightly-omniscient confidence would still be there.

As a baby, it might be cool if she were wispy and mostly noncorporeal, since we have part of the conciousness of a mortally impercievable higher reality becoming mortally percievable and totally powerless, and that would probably take a little while even with ICRS's technology. There'd still be some blurring around the edges at the toddler stage, but when she hits kid she would be fully corporeal. Starting at the adolescent stage, there would be darkening around the lips and eyelids- a bit like makeup, but without the colorfulness and intent of attention-whoring.

And then comes the adornments! Hooray! There's a lot of things you can stick on Fenny that would just be totally awesome, and they can go anywhere you want, and they'd probably disappear and relocate randomly throughout her development. There'd be typical stuff you might see on a ghost, for one- chains and so on, and I also have a thing for clock hands, gears, insect legs, spindles and spokes, rusted anything, that kind of thing. If you think the kid could use some wings, and you can make them out of such materials, I would applaud you. Go crazy! If you see something or think of something and go "OOH THAT WOULD LOOK COOL ON FENCHURCH", then on Fenchurch it can go.

As for clothes... hmm. There's a lot of stuff you can do from there. ICly, Mouse would probably put her in obnoxiously colorful Hawaiian shirts and huge arching braided pigtails and so on, but in the end it's pretty "anything goes". Stuff that's obviously degrading to her previous status before ICRS could be hilarious and fun- maybe the baby could be in one of those tight burrito bundles! 8D

...Yes, I'm sorry, but I must militantly demand that. Fuzzy pink "IT'S A GIRL!" burrito bundle, with Fenchurch peeking out of it with a >:J face and any pokey adornments she may have tearing through it. Like some terrible horror movie screenshot.

And sorry, but right now I have no idea what Fenny would look like at the FRIC stage. xd ; Maybe some sort of flesh sinews / strings / tethers connecting her to her previous noncorporeal existence? As in they'd splay out and fade away like those thread of fate thingus. And maybe more color.

Let me finish with that you're the artist, and if you want to try something out or shift around what I have described, nothing should stop you from doing that. Customization is fine and good, but I also like being surprised.

Child's Personality: At the risk of being cliche, Fenchurch would be a morbid apath, though cutely misinformed of social graces at times. Wouldn't care to take sides or form many opnions about anything; pretty condescending to everyone. Doesn't see the problem behind talking about anything with anyone. She'd also be more than willing to do favors for anyone who asks, so long as they can make it worth her while. Trading favors, services, and valuables comes naturally, though all material items have an equal value unless it's something you can eat.

Ohhh, eating. She would probably love the food immensely. She had no need for food before, but then she becomes a biological nightmare mass of flesh and organs and that needs food to keep alive. Outside of the fact that it's food there might not be much preferenct: as long as it can be digested, it is delicious.

Along with that, she would suddenly find herself having five concrete senses and want to use them to the fullest. So she'd be pretty touchy-feely around pretty much anyone, and even pain would be pretty delightful because it creates a lot of sensation, and sometimes it produces blood which is nice to look at and edible. That doesn't mean I want you to draw pictures of her deliberately cutting herself; she might like sensation but she knows it would be stupid to deliberately impede the performance of the flesh-bone-and-organs skinbag she's stuck in.

Outside of that, I'm not sure. Along the way she'd probably develop favorite things as she becomes more and more "human", though. Character development is fun!

Anything else: Fenny might retain some bits of her previous abilites at the very early stages, though that would be very minimal and amount to "vanishing and going through walls". Outside of that, I likes the creepy.

CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD TASK KIND!!
There is a species of squid that is bioluminescent, and another species of squid that can expel luminious ink.


Three words that describe this character
Nonconforming, incomprehensible, timeless.

The Basics

Character's full name
If it were given anything in the form of an identity, it would be best translated as Dissenter after commiting the crime it was convicted for.

Reason for or meaning of name
Its share of consciousness formed observations (opinions?) different from the rest of the consciousnesss it was a part of.

Nickname
None.

Approximate human-equivalent age at sentencing
Ummm... immeasurable?

Approximate height at sentencing
Also pretty immeasurable.

Hair color/texture/style (or hair equivalent)
Don't think this thing is capable of having hair.

Skin color
Doesn't need skin.

Eye color
Sees without those squishy orbs, I'm afraid.

General build
Uhhh... enough to exist?

Distinguishing marks (scars, tattoos, general markings)
I think I've run it to the ground at this point.

Other distinguishing features
Almost completely and utterly incomprehensible to any conscious being. Any "appearance" that it may have is pulled from the thoughts and opinions of people who have encountered it.

It would be awesome and hilarious if those features were somehow pulled from some of the dumb little facts I have scattered about this thread, but whatever you think this thing would look like, really.


The Past



Name of Home Planet
The best word for it would be the "Nexus".

Description of home planet
The Nexus is a cross-dimensional hub between all moments in time and all planes of existence. In some realities it doesn't exist, and in others it may have a great importance. Most just don't care to screw with it because trying causes headache and frustration. Some places have figured out how to harness the Nexus for the purpose of instantaneous travel, which is all fine and good.

It seems that it is not only some sort of reality-transcending hyperdimension, but also a consciousness of some sort. Not that I'm saying that this place is God or whatever- it's more of a subtle thing, with people travelling through it feeling some sort of odd, watchful intelligence during the infinite blip that they're there. Researchers in some realities theorize that this intelligence comes from the Nexus assimilating the stray thoughts (and sometimes entire minds) that get caught in it, but none can say for sure how the hell the thing works. It's beyond comprehension, and it would probably be best if it stayed that way.

Crime
The shorthand description of the crime would probably be "Attempts to jeopardize the Nexus", and maybe "Reality Genocide".

Somehow, part of the Nexus's consciousness got the bright idea that it was dull and unfair to be incomprehensible, and as such it tried to find a way to fix that problem.

Dissenter effectively tried to tie the Nexus to a being in one of the many realities it connects to in an attempt to make it adhere to standard levels of comprehension. It worked for the tiniest fraction of a second- the only time that was ever measured in the Nexus- and then things went bad from there. That entire reality ceased to exist, and Dissenter was severed from the rest of the mess.

It probably wouldn't have been convicted if it weren't for that one recordable blip in a blip of time.


Favorite/Least Favorite Things

Color
Colors that you can't comprehend. >B~

Least favorite color
Heeere we go again...

Contrary to popular belief, George Washington Carver did not invent peanut butter.

Peanut butter was actually invented by some white guy with crazy facial hair, just like everything else. Carver just perfected the roasting process.

Gas companies are supposed to store gasoline at about 60 degrees Farenheit. Many, however, store it at a much higher temperature, which causes it to expand. So you're paying more for less.
