Jameson lost in DDS

Typical me: should be sleeping, is instead wasting all her time on fan stuff -_-

Lemme unpack this one for you.

I've been playing a LOT of Digital Devil Saga. I finally finished the first game and have started the second (haven't finished yet, no spoilers) and I really love the art style... so of course, what do I do? Design myself in it of course!

And I'll also say this: I think MarySues/Self-Inserts are rediculous, They are very easy to get wrong and are only done right if they become a CHARACTER which is then an oC even if it's BASED on you. So like tick-tack-toe, the only way to succeed is not to take it so seriously and just do it for fun. That is my approach always: if I'm going in, its as a fan and meant only as entertainment for myself and anyone else who happens to invest themselves in it.

SO I'LL FINALLY GET TO THE DESCRIPTION OF THIS PICTURE!

This is Jameson (me) of the junkyard. Purple, as a color was sadly lacking in DDS... I mean Bat? That was lavander in his hair, not purple. This is purple! A good strong color, yes... As an Asura, Jame is a member of the Wolves, not necessarily anyone special, but a stronger atma, so Lupa takes her with him as a part of his attack party. This probably isn't smart because she's totally and completely dispassionate. She never makes decisions, has input or does much of anything except stand there and hate life. She's great at parties. This is of course ironic because her real life counterpart was not those things... but the two of them in the same room would be the ultimate comic duo. ^^ She can come over to my place any time as long as she promises not to eat me.

Atma: Prana. Its a giant purple sloth. Yeah. Sloths rule.
The real Prana was one of the lesser-gods under Vayu. Not a coincidence, I assure you... if my avatar here were not dispassionate, she'd be drooling and following Gale around like a fool. One reason why I made her not care. Prana's claws contract up into her hands, and she does, in fact, have no fingers. When her claws are not out, they are just hairy stubs that hang down tot he ground. Her tail is just a long ribbon of hair and has no bones. Her legs are short and stubby. Her mouth is completely hidden behind that faceplate, but when she opens it it opens REALLY FREAKISHLY WIDE and I'll have to draw a picture of it because its horrifying. She's weak to electricity because that's the norm in the game. If I had a choice, I'd make her weak to earth because that would be my second choice in strengths... as a Sailor Soldier, I had power over Wind, but was actually the guardian of Earth... yeah... that was a long time ago, and I was an oC in that fic... but that's for another day.

Okay, last thing: Jame's involvement in the games.
Jame accompanied Lupa to the pre-final-battle (so sad) and was promptly killed off by Brutes -_-. She proceeded not to participate in any of the events of the rest of the game.

In DDS2: We see a flashback movie where Jame, when she supposedly 'died' was actually rescued from oblivion by a monster called Deus Ex Machina who lifted her up from the digital plane and chucked her full-force into a huge gaping plot hole where she was transported to Nirvana. She awoke in the abandoned urban district outside the walls of the Karma society where she was promptly captured, killed, and eaten by Karma soldiers. She then proceeded not to participate in the rest of the game.

Then she was resurrected and one day dispassionately crossed paths with Gale but didn't remember who he was or how much she loved him when she was an Asura so didn't have any reaction at all.

Later she had a very romantic dream about him saving her from danger but had no idea why.

Then End

See... I know how to practice self-restraint.

(after all that she got a letter from some girl named Jennifer telling her to track Gale down and attach herself to his chest like another shirt where he would have to wear her around for the rest of his life while she rubbed her face into the back of his neck. Seeing that her schedule was totally clear, she thought 'why not' and did just that ^_^)

So yeah, I like them. I'll probably draw more of them.
