Okay, well, now that the fire's died down a bit, I'm making my own Lost OC story.
The idea belongs to the originator, LordXwee, who writes a kickbutt OC story.
So you all probably know how these things work, but those of you who read my stories know that my fanfics are very, very different, whether good or bad, that's not my decision.
I have a couple rules. One, please, NO repeat submissions. I like my fanfictions to be different, thank you.
Two, don't ask for you character to be included more. They will be immediately killed off in a most painful way.
Three, if you truly believe that the character you're submitting is the best darn character you've ever thought up, tell me. I'll do my best to keep them alive.
I will be randomly killing off characters, but there's a catch. If yours does happen to die, you submit another one if you want. I would feel eternally guilty for doing that.
So here's how it's going to go down…
Be as detailed as possible. All characters will be accepted, but if yours isn't specific, they're more likely to be killed off.
The first chapter will be the start of season 4, picking Team Locke or Team Jack. Be sure to add that in the submission form.
Any questions, ideas, suggestions, whatever, tell me. You have control in this fanfic, you decide. And if you want to add something about your character, tell me. I'll add it in.
I think that's all…except, there's one character that formed in my head that I never had the chance to submit. I'll be submitting him into my own…if you don't mind.
Here is your form!!
Full name: (give me the real name and, if they have one, nickname. Whatever they prefer to be called.) David Smith. And he prefers David.
Age: (it shows who they would generally hang around with or who they could be paired with, and how they would act.) 24.
Group: (Locke, Jack, Other, Freighter, on their own, creepy vision, you name it.)He was going to go to Locke but was convinced by Kate otherwise.
Friends/Enemies/Pairings: (be as specific as you possibly can. It really tells a lot.) He's good friends with Kate, Charlie, Hurley, Desmond, Sun, Jin, and Claire. He gets along pretty well with Miles and Ben too. Sawyer becomes very jealous of how close he and Kate are, as does Jack. Sayid once thought he was an Other, so they're not good friends. He immediately hit it off with Kate, but they're just friends. He and Ana-Lucia were just about a couple before she died. Otherwise, he's not really interested in any of the girls on the island. (Unless there's a certain female OC.)
Attitude: (towards kinds of people, towards being on an island, towards everything.)he's actually pretty cheerful, considering he's stranded, but you can tell he dislikes it a lot. He's usually quite kind to everyone, but mean to those who don't like him. He uses insults to everyone, but most of them are just in good fun.
Personality: (it's a bit different than attitude, so try and decipher it the best you can.) He's the comedian of the island. He prefers more random jokes over nicknames and insults. He's always upbeat and energized. He gets bored easily. He hates very serious moments and therefore always tries to fit a joke into the conversation. He can be a bit full of himself sometimes or even kind of mean if he's trying to make someone laugh.
How/Why On Island: (How'd they get there and why did they come.) He was in the crash because back home he won a drawing for tickets to Australia and back.
Appearance: (be very specific. It gives mea good picture in my mind.) He's really short for his age; he uses this to his advantage and buys children's tickets into museums or parks. He smiles a lot. He has very small eyes that are dark bluish-green. He's got thick, straight blonde hair that covers most of his ears. The tips of his hair reach the middle of his neck and almost his eyes.
Past: (Where did they live? What did they do? Etc.) He survived 4 miraculous incidents as a child, so he's pretty lucky. He's always been the smartest and funniest kid in his grade level, and would basically entertain all the popular kids. Before winning the ticket to Australia, he was about to start his fifth year at UCLA. He once met Ana-Lucia in a bar.
Interests/Strengths/Hobbies: (What do they do when they're bored? What are they really good at?) He likes to talk and make people laugh. Despite his size, he enjoys sports and is particularly good at soccer. He detests sitting still and the only way you can make him do so is to give him some sort of a logic puzzle. He's really logical and he LOVES sudoku puzzles. All his life, he's loved watching fire and explosions, unless they're hurting people. He also has a strange addiction to chewing gum.
Possessions: (Mr. Eko's Jesus Stick, Daniel's journal, Walt's dog.) he has a blue sports jacket with white stripes and a red and yellow soccer ball (he supports Spain), which was lost during the crash.
Weaknesses: (We've all got 'em so spit it out.) He gets angry and impatient. He can't fight for his life, but he can strategize and talk his way out of things. He's also got an immense fear of being tortured, hurt, or killed, so he'd do anything to get out of it. You wouldn't want him to be captured, because he'd give away anything if he was threatened.
Catchphrases: (Jack's traditional 'live together, die alone', Locke's ever-popular 'don't tell me what I can't do', Michael's famous 'WAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLTTT.') 'It seemed like a good idea at the time', 'can't argue with that logic.'
Preferred flashbacks: (can't guarantee them but I'll do my best) Meeting Ana Lucia, surviving deadly events, bonding with people on the island.
Misc.: (I forget anything? Put it here.) Nope.
So there's your form. Do me a favor and tell me how your character would get along with David…and you can add him in your Past or Friends/Enemies/Pairings section. Have fun!
