READ DESCRIPTION FOR ADDITIONAL INFO IT'S REALLY FREAKING LONG SO IT'S IN EASY TO FIND CATEGORIES.

EDIT: CHANGED How darwins memory worked/works, I realized it made little to no sense.
Also changed "age" to compensate.

WELP
HERE I AM TRYING OUT FOR ANOTHER OCT, GOSH.
:icontheswitchoct:

As the titles says, this is Darwin! they're my latest OC made specifically for the switch.
Fun fact; I was thinking of bringing Que back in a new outfit but I decided--while that would be fun and cool, I wanted to make a new character specifically for it!

:bulletblue: FURTHER INFO AND INFO SUMMARIES:

+Biology-
-She does bleed, it's blue though, and not from the knees down or elbows forward.
-white parts (not including t-shirt) are hard, anything grey is soft like flesh.
-Does have organs and flesh, once again not from knees down or elbows forward.
-Does not do anything that would indicate that he is human (I.E eat, drink, use the bathroom etc.)
-The plate on her face is removable, though she doesn't even know it herself!

+personality-
Darwin is very polite, she refers to people as "sir" "ma'am" "mister" "miss" Etc. and tries her best to please anyone who asks things of her,and tends to be somewhat Naive....Meaning she'll usually trust you if you act nice enough despite any past experiences, she does know morally right from wrong though. She is also curious, but often scared of strange or sudden things.

Does not take betrayal well, and will probably beat you up the best she can for it, as when angered, she can be rather
unruly. She does not know much about friendship.

Dislikes, Her inability to touch living things, the dark, thugs, betrayal, being tricked, heights.
Likes, animals, bright lights, things that give off warmth, hording things she likes, soft things, Puzzles (but they're not very good at them)

+Weaknesses-
-Cannot touch living things or thing in direct contact with living things.
-Can be touched by projectiles that aren't living, such as bullets and things that are thrown at him.
-high amounts of electricity cause distortion to vision, and movements, direct contact with high amounts of electricity
results in paralysis.
-cannot run very quickly
-Little to no formal battling experience, just some back alley brawls, so a skilled fighter might be able to outwit him.
-A little dimwitted.
-Afraid of heights
-Heavy
-Cannot control the halo of light around her head, so stealth may be impossible.
-Can still be harmed by elements and energy based attacks (kamehamehas, Lasers, Water, fire, electricity, etc)

+Strengths-
-Quick reflexes
-very strong
-Cannot touch living things or things in direct contact with living things.
-Sturdy
-high stamina/endurence
-can take a beating
-flexible
-Can sense electricity and energy, so If your character gives off either of the 2 he'll be able to find you with some effort

:bulletblue:IN DEPTH ANALYSIS OF ABILITIES:

Darwins ability to phase through things is limited to living things, and things in direct contact with living things in a 5in. radius.

For example, if you were trying to stab him with a dagger that was less than five inches long then it would go through him.
But if you tried to stab him with a sword that was longer than 5 inches or anything above five inches from your hand, it would go through him...in a different way D:

it is possible for darwin to become stuck in something, for example; if you were to put your hand against a wall he could put his hand through your hand and into the wall about five inches in. but if you moved your hand his hand would be stuck in the wall.
This is not an advisable strategy as Darwin is aware of her ability, and would probably not try and punch you just to get stuck in a wall, and would probably be strong enough to break out of said wall anyway.

The following are classified as living things (thus Darwin can phase through them)
-Humans
-Animals
-Plants
-Undead or re-animated corpses
-Anything with sentience acquired through unconventional means
((For example, a robot with programmed AI can be touched, a living doll given a soul by magic cannot. An exception to this rule is if the sentient being is composed of some kind of element, such as water electricity fire or any variation of such.))

Her halo is also uncontrollable and appears when there is energy or electricity around her.
Small amount of electricity from a phone, PDA, or Game system probably wouldn't do much, but a computer or television would generate a faint halo. A whole network of screens and computers would maker her halo very visible and moderately sized.
It takes a lot of electricity or energy to really get her on the fritz. The device used to travel to different dimensions however makes her and her halo wig out very quickly!

Darwin is built extremely sturdily.
She posses above average strength and could probably lift a small car with about as much effort as it would take someone to lift a large bag of rice, or in other words about 50 or so lbs. His body is very tough as well.
A couple of bullets wouldn't kill him but it would slow him down a lot, darwin also heal very quickly.

:bulletblue: MISCELLANEOUS INFO:

-Her fear of heights is only apparent when the space below is visible, like on the catwalks of Phaeton or when peering
over the edge of a building.
It's not too bad, but she does lose a lot of concentration and will likely be rather jarred. Falling would probably cause her to lose all grips on reality.

-She is somewhat aware of her Halos meaning, but doesn't particularly know why it's there or how much energy/electricity it takes to make her dizzy or disoriented.

-Darwin doesn't know it, but she IS capable of controlling her powers, that is to say she would be able to phase at will, through any substance living or not, as well as not phase through living things automatically. Feel free to explore this idea if you face her! I have my own plans but they'll come to light later.

-A more in depth look into her history, Darwins earliest memory is of people building, she remembers talking to the people who built and built. She also remembers seeing them build until she couldn't see them anymore. Now a good chunk of his memory is comprised mostly of the underground life he leads now, only having encountered (hostile) Humans in the last 20 years or so.
why she can only remember this much time is once again unknown to herself.
She knows what a sun is, and she know where the sky is supposed to be, but she hasn't seen it in a long time.

Genderless.

Oh wow, I love this character. Such an interesting design, as well as an interesting variation on standard phasing abilities.
A couple of questions, just out of curiosity more than anything else.
1: if something was living, but then died, would darwin then be able to touch them?
2: If Darwin is holding something small and someone else touches it, does it instantly pass through him? If so, how do his clothes stay on when phasing through people?

:iconnyaph:
1.)Yes, Darwin would be able to touch anything that has died, it has less to do with whether or not an object is breathing and moving and more of if it's soul is still intact.

2.)Yes the object would pass through them, An example I can think of is if darwin were holding a rock and someone put their hand on it it would fall through darwin.

clothing wise darwins undershirt (the white t-shirt like thing with the circle pattern on it) is special and wouldn't fall off of him regardless of what he did. Darwin doesn't know why as he has never actually been without it.

His jacket however would not come off unless he "pressed" his whole body against someone without phasing into them completely. It's kinda hard to visualize dskjnf. When darwin passes through people he usually goes in at an angle due to this risk, since the auto-phasing only works within a 5 inch radius of the contact, so long as some part of his jacket isn't within the radius it won't fall off completely, normally his hood serves as this anchor.

SORRY FOR THE RAMBLING AND IF IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE, YOU POSED TOO GOOD OF QUESTIONS THAT I HADN'T THOUGHT OF BEFORE DKJSFN, and thankyou kindly for the compliments VuV

Really cool! Does the pattern on the face mask change depending on Darwin's emotions?

Also, thanks for clarifying that he/she is genderless. It makes him/her all the more interesting.

:iconnyaph:
Darwin has 3 main patterns they alternate between!
The gasmask like symbol that serves as either a default or batte ready mode.
A simple face with lines for the eyes and nose and a mouth that can change shape like any other mouth as shown, and a heart for when they're feeling affectionate VuV
