This journal is presenting my original characters!
I decided to make a journal entry that shows my OCs so that when I am doing art trades people can easily see my characters in one place. Also updating a journal will be easier than picking information pieces from different places so here you can find the newest information (yes, my OCs might develop now and then!).
Sorry about the lack of proper reference sheets! But no worries, when you are drawing my OCs you should find all the information you need from here, in this journal. And I am not nitpicking about the details as long there is clearly my character in your half of the trade I am more than happy to see them drawn in your own style (e.g. if you happen to draw 15 spikes for Seth'Laigab instead of 18 that's not the end of the world). But please do not change them too much on purpose! If you're not sure about some detail you can also always ask me.
Please note that mature content pictures are not allowed when drawing my characters. Unless there is really good reason to do so and remember also to ask my permission first!
More pictures of my OCs (drawn by other people) you can see on my journal pages, in a right column.
Ok, now cut to the case!

Personality: Peaceful and easy-going but very dangerous when irritated. He is especially protective towards his home forest so anyone who harms his trees or plants is in danger to lose their head.
Special skills: 


Because Bryophyte isn't fully mortal entity but a spirit-like creature, he can move almost weightlessly in his forest. You might see him peering his territory at the top of a tree or laying on a thin tree branch that would normally break under a weight of creature of his size. He also manages to move so lightly that he doesn't crush any flowers or other plants.



Bryophyte can blend very well with his environment. So you won't probably be able to see him until he is just in front of you...



Because of Bryo's blending ability he also changes color while his forest changes color along with seasons. So during spring time his mane is lighter green as sprouts and on autumn time his mane glows in colors of red and orange leaves. During winter time he doesn't move much (he is slightly hibernating) but his mane and fur are getting white and silvery hues.
(Please note that the reference pictures of Bryo are presenting his summer coat. Do not draw his other coats until I have made reference pictures of them or unless I give you a special permission.)
Kerttu now:
Old references:

G E N E R A L
I N F O R M A T I O N 
Name: Kerttu
Species: Mix of ghost wolf (from mother's side) and German Shepherd dog (from father's side). Ghost wolves are creatures that live next to human world but in their own dimension. They often visit our world but we can't perceive them unless they want to show themselves to us.
Gender: Female
Eyes: Brown
Muzzle: Black
Fur: Thick and short-ish. Light, icy blue with darker blue markings. Markings appear around her left eye, ears, back, chest, legs and tail tip. Fur can have hints of purple.
Size and body structure: Height about 70 cm and weight about 40 kg. Fit, strong and quite muscular.
Nails and paw pads: Black nails and pink paw pads.

Personality: Kerttu is playful, fun loving and goofy. Her personality comes from her father's side (dog) so she is more playful than ghost wolves usually.
Special skills:


Ghost wolves have several abilities: telepathy, ability to disguise themselves from human eyes and teleportation. Kerttu has these abilities too but she can't control them as well as pure ghost wolves. E.g. Pure ghost wolves can hide themselves from humans completely but Kerttu often fails to hide herself totally: it is weird if there is just a tail or ears floating in the air while rest of the animal is invisible.



Rather than using her magical skills Kerttu uses her feet. She is really fit and strong and loves running.



Kerttu isn't the smartest one in her pack (compared to her highly intelligent relatives) but her instincts are better than typical dogs' or ghost wolves'.
Seth'Laigab now:
Old references:
G E N E R A L
I N F O R M A T I O N 
Name: Seth'Laigab
Species: Seth'Laigab's flesh is unicorn's but his soul is from evil god spirit. That's where he has gotten his twisted look. The spirit is affecting him more and more as he gets older and also effects on his look (see pictures above).
Gender: Male
Eyes: Red (they sometimes lack pupils)
Fur: Steel grey; can be shown as black also. Used to be smooth but now Set'Laigab has longer fur under his neck and feet. Some hair is also growing between spikes and on tail. Small scars all over the body.
Hair/mane: instead of mane Seth'Laigab has 18 red spikes behind his neck and back. Spikes were smooth and sharp when he was young but when he has more gotten age, some of those spikes has got broken in battles, yet still maintaining their sharpness. Spikes are dark (cherry) red in color.
Size: Height is about 170 cm
Hooves: Red, cloven hooves
Physical particularities: Long, serpentine tail with big, flat scales on the end of it. Sharp teeth.

Personality: Because Seth'Laigab has born from evil spirit it influences everything what he does. His deepest soul is corrupted but because his mother is unicorn and he has shared a womb with his twin sister Abigail (more about Abigail below) there are sometimes glimpses of goodwill in him. They're rare tho.
Special Skills:


Usually unicorns have a power of healing but in Seth'Laigab this power is inverse: He can absord someone else's life to heal himself.



Powerful mind. Seth'Laigab can get weak personalities to work for him by getting into their minds and telling them what to do. Although strong individuals can block him out of their minds.

All these characters are © to me!
Feel free to link your OC page here when you're done - it would be nice too see it!
I am just too lazy to do proper reference sheets - now it is easy just update the texts and pictures here when ever there is something to update. ^^
Oh and I love the way you're presenting your characters in your OC journal: there are also your collections added!
And thank you though it is hard to really organize as I want since there are limits to these journals on how many 'images' or thumbs you use.
Here I think I just have to delete oldest pictures when I reach the limit. But when featuring the pictures others have drawn for you it is more tricky. Maybe you just have to do several entries to make them all fit.
