Describe/draw/whatever their relationship with each other!
Sure you may have a character’s main relationships worked out (friends, family, etc) but what would happen if they ran into a random other character? How would they react? Would they get along? This helps you figure out their personalities, attitudes, and relationships with others~!

I came to the realization that if I wanted to make a steampunk themed outfit and use Maxim, then I could’ve used some tips from Brendon Urie in the Ballad of Mona Lisa music video.
Anyways, I haven’t had a chance to draw and colour in an akumatized version of one of my OCs yet and I do want to get some of them. … Along with eventually drawing my Ladybug and Chat Noir in this AU. So here’s Dr Marionette whose Maxim as an akumatized villain. This has gone through quite a few tweaks and honestly, I’m pretty damn happy about this final design.
I was going to format it a similar way to how I drew up my akumasona but I decided not to. Mostly because the full body picture I drew of Maxim in the AU with this sucked. So I decided not to use it. I don’t mind though since I already drew him in this AU. Not a full body picture but eh. Although if I end up making anymore of these (which I would like to since I have my ideas), they will be in the same format, information format (with an added category) and picture format, as the akumasona one.
I’m almost finished that family members post I have had in my drafts for months now. I think in order to keep my creative juices, flowing, there might be a good amount of them I will actually try to draw. And for some, draw and colour in (Frankie’s parents and Thomas’ siblings)
For now, I have this little lady whose Samson’s younger sister, Eleni. I wasn’t sure if I’d give Samson a younger sibling but I decided that I would for a few reasons. According to statistics, quite a few families have more than one child. I don’t really do that with my NLDR OCs. Nine out of sixteen of them are only childs (at this point). Thinking of sibling relationships is always interesting and fun anyways so I don’t mind. She has very messy hair and, yeah this would basically be what hair colour Samson’s hair is. A dark brown before he shaved it. … Since he wanted his hair to grow back after dyeing it. In addition, my idea with her jacket and shirt was to make it a contrast to Samson’s.
Maybe not an inverse, but you know how some colours are the opposite to each other on the colour wheel? I wish I knew what the term was right now. Anyways, since Samson’s jacket is green, I made Eleni’s orange as they’re opposites on the colour wheel. As for her shirt, it still applies. Samson’s shirt is mostly black with some blue on it (being the symbol. There’s a case with this for Eleni where Eleni’s shirt is mostly red (the opposite from blue) and has some white on it (the opposite of black). The hair clip was just a cute idea I had.
… Now that I look at her enough, she looks kinda like Frankie. Huh.
I was just doodling things and as I doodled an alternate hair style for Peter (less bedhead and hair tied back because I realized he also technically has pretty long hair) and then I decided that I could use this design for Peter when he’s older. I’ve mostly gone off the interpretation that he’s 28.
I actually did draw something before with a similar concept, Peter as an adult but at 30. Ignore that one, this is canon now I guess. Especially since the first one is older and my drawing has improved.
Also if the colour scheme of the clothes bar the scarf look familiar… It was unintentional but when I realized it, I rolled with it anyways.
Now, since I have now disassociated certain OCs from a fandom, I am now calling them my NLDR OCs which a friend of mine helped me think of. With this, I can use a lot more ideas that felt I was restricted keeping me in the main universe. Though many of the ideas I have from that are staying because I still like them. … Basically all of them but they won’t be associated in that universe.
One of these ideas is with Samson since I thought it would be cool if he had coloured contacts. I imagine he has glasses starting from middle school but ended up getting hazel coloured contacts later because people have constantly told him that his natural eye colour looks “unnatural” due to how intense they look. He decided on them since some people felt intimidated by him with how tall he is. He doesn’t need something else to turn people away from him. He liked the hazel colour better since it looked softer. Though he can’t always wear his contacts and sometimes it’s more convenient to wear his glasses (in his point of view) so he takes them off when he’s at home usually.
The shade is called “electric blue” which fits him since he’s a DJ and uses electronics a lot to produce music.
