What is the earliest OC of yours that you can remember? Whether a character within an existing IP or a 100% original creation?

This was a surprisingly hard question to answer because I struggled deciding what was actually an OC and what was just some generic fill-in character that wasn't intended to mean anything. I ended up deciding characters I drew as specifically those characters multiple times counted, hehe. I didn't even name them at first, but I had this plate-armored warlock that used a sword I apparently later called a "Truesteel Moonblade", lol. He would wield this sword in one hand and casted magic with the other, often holding a fireball bc that's all I could imagine at the time. I'm not even sure why I drew this character several times, he had this skull mask thing and is altogether much edgier than I typically go for these days.

Alternatively I completely forgot until I went back in my sketchbooks but I apparently had this kick of Square Enix-inspired characters (this must have been when I was first getting into Kingdom Hearts) where I had one pointy-haired protagonist with a buster sword-type thing and a more elven antagonist-flavored counterpart. I would draw their shadows with angel and devil wings because babby Lian thought that was super profound at the time, I guess that was my stereotypical angels-and-demons arc, lol.

It's funny because I think I all of them a few times each, but on the whole I created a lot of characters that remained nameless just for the sake of drawing and filling up time, which was very likely part of the reason I ended up giving myself a big head start in art!
