Introducing Ava Altair! (My AO MC)


ALSHSKAKSJDJ IM SORRY GUYS FOR RUNNING INTO AN ART BLOCK FOR MORE THAN A MONTH, HERE’S MY AO MC INTRODUCTION LIKE I PROMISED ;-;

Ava Altair is a Water Mage who comes across as someone who is easygoing and nice to whoever she comes across. However, she is also someone who really takes things seriously, with a strong sense of duty and sense of justice. Traits that she still had despite her amnesia.

And while she may appear calm, she is actually also impulsive, easily angered when she witnesses unjustice, and would not hesitate to kill if necessary. Her impulsiveness gets even worse due to her hubris.

Despite this, she is willing to listen to those she trusts, so if they tell her that it is a fight she won’t win, she’ll listen… usually anyway.


Man, this was a character I kinda spent months making, I guess due to me constanly looking for small crumbs in the lore to create a character and then constantly changing my mind due to the amount of stuff I keep finding (because of course the Lore addict has to have a lore accurate MC lmaoo :sweat_smile: )

Also, she has a unique hairstyle thats not ingame cause why not lol

The coloring here is different from my first art, it’s because I decided to experiment with a new style, I might keep this going forward.

Hopefully, I do get to start doing more art and not run into another block, I have a few fun ideas around (I might start doing the AO Gang since I haven’t done them yet)

If you have any questions abt my MC, just ask below, and Merry Christmas!

Does she know how to make a grilled cheese?

Ayy, good to see you’ve gotten something of her!
Once over, your style is really nice, and this new coloring style adds to it a lot!

Even if she is lore-accurate as can be, she’s pretty neat and stands out.
As for questions… Actually…
Is she completely lore-accurate, or only to a “mandatory” point to count as the AO main character?
Creative agency really fun, but extreme accuracy is respectable; I just wanna know which it is for sure.

Ive got a feeling she’d burn the cheese…

More closer to the former? However, while her character is strongly based off of the lore, that doesnt mean I actually havent thought of what her backstory and other stuff that hasnt been established in the story yet. (I uh, kinda even had a rough idea abt out her possible character arc :sweat_smile: ).

However, a lot of those are like predictions. And since a lot of stuff abt the MC is unknown, things abt Ava’s character are bound to change depending on how it goes. There was enough to go on that I managed to create a solid personality and I did take some additional interpretations based off of the group she’s in (making sure she’s a character that stands out from the group, also mainly being a foil to Morden).

I think I’m content with what I got. Though, as time passes on, the main story would probs diverge from what Ive got in mind (unless those predictions turn out right). But who knows, in the end, there might still be enough room to slip in headcanons and personal interpretations. I’d imagine it’d be like that.

(One funny headcanon I have is that Ava cant live without eating fish or seafood, it’s her favorite. I had this as an ironic joke due to her ties to Poseidon, who probs can talk to fish…? Though, I realized later this was actually very probable ingame because your crew is fishing all the time for you so uh, lmao)

Don’t feel bad about having art blocks it’s natural, mine lasted for 3 months too LOL

Good art either way

can she do a flying sick back drop kick?

Hmmm… cool design… one big problem tho…

No pure traumatic past that fucks them to the point of nearly no return? I thought ever OC had them…

Bold of you to assume that she didnt have such backstory…

Not to the point that it’d break her, but Id still say its traumatic. Doesnt remember it tho atm.

How many seconds are in eternity?

atleast 3
