Who would you consider your ‘main fankid?’ If you were hard pressed to make one of them the protagonist of the overall story, who would it be?

· Leave a comment ·

This is a really hard one! I have kids who I consider the ‘man kids’ for each region, but a lot of the main kids in each region don’t interact a whole ton with each other, save for a few exceptions, so choosing just one to represent the whole bunch would be tough. Another big part of this is that, since Ash doesn’t exist in this world, there’s no one protagonist who’s kid would follow in his footsteps. But, if I had to choose just one, it would probably (at least at this point in time) be Draco. He is one of the few fankids who has definitely traveled to all the different regions and he has a lot of development along the way. He would be quite the antihero though, considering his…… charming personality, but I think he’d probably be the most interesting to follow as the protagonist, since he’d be the most likely to meet all the other kids. A second choice, and one a bit more heroic than Draco would probably be Amaryllis, since she’s Red’s daughter and is somewhat of a foil to Draco. Perhaps Rylla would be the protagonist and Draco would be the antagonist/anti-hero 

¯_(ツ)_/¯ .  

For my boy Draco: 3, 11, 19, 31, 39, 50?

Sure thing!

03. What would be their favorite physical trait about themselves?

Draco is really fond of his hair. He carefully styles it every morning and probably uses too much hair gel, but he thinks he looks cool so that’s all that matters.

11. What is something that would make your character fly into a rage? 
The better question is what wouldn’t. Draco has anger issues. He’ll get mad if he thinks you’re insulting him, which is often. He’ll get mad at slight inconveniences like someone being late or his morning coffee being too hot. He’ll really get angry, however, when his father is brought up or when he loses or is shown up. Draco is very prideful, so when his pride is injured he’ll really fly into a rage. Honestly, though, his natural resting state is ‘disgruntled’ so it’s probably easier to count the times when he’s actually happy then those where he’s not angry about something. 

19. Would your character be the kind to get into fights? (physical or verbal) Would they be a good fighter or cave in rather easily? 
Due to the fact he’s always angry and is generally an asshole, yes Draco often gets into fights, both physical and verbal. He prefers not to fight physically though, and if it comes to that he’ll usually suggest a Pokémon battle instead. He loves arguing with people, however, and will occasionally purposefully push people’s buttons just so they can yell at each other. He hates backing down or losing a fight, so he’ll draw things out as long as he can just so he can win or gain the upper hand. It’s honestly quite tiring for the other person most of the time.

31. Would your character be the kind capable of killing? Would they enjoy killing or only use it when necessary or, perhaps, refuse to kill no matter what? 
For all his anger issues, Draco would probably not be able to kill someone in cold blood. In self-defense, certainly, but he tends to back down if whoever he’s conflicting with is seriously injured, or is in serious danger. He’s saved the lives of people he hates before, because while he’s confrontational and difficult to get along with, he takes death very seriously. He’s experienced loss and knows first-hand how difficult losing someone is, and he would never inflict that on someone. If he has a quarrel with someone, it’s with them alone: he’s never going to get their family and friends involved. In fact, Draco despises people who kill without reason more than any others. If he ever killed someone not in self-defense, it would be a murderer who themselves have no qualms about killing.

39. When people look at your character, is there some assumption they might make about them just by appearance? Is that assumption correct? 

From his gelled hair, to his dark clothing, to his capes, to the smug little smile on his face, everything about Draco’s looks scream ‘smug asshole’ and that is 100% accurate. Draco is perfectly fine with people judging him on his looks because hopefully it means they’ll either leave him alone or pick a fight with him. However, he also tends to attract a lot of fans for his dark and mysterious vibes, and he has no idea what to do about that. Sometimes he’ll date one of his fans for a bit as he tends to do, but the day he found out about the fan blog dedicated to ‘how hot and dreamy he was’ was a very confusing one for him.

50. If your character confessed love to their crush, boyfriend, girlfriend, etc, what would they say? 
Getting Draco to confess his love would be like pulling teeth. He would never confess first. Even in his ‘dating around’ period, he never really confessed love to any of his partners. When he finally settled down with Addie, his confession was more of a response than anything. Addie confessed her love and Draco replied, after a bit of time to think about it, that he loved her as well. It was very low-key, which is his style. Draco is not a very affectionate person, so he’s not the type to make flowery proclamations of his undying love. He rarely says ‘I love you’ to his wife, but Addie knows he cares about her through his actions rather than his words.

Draco the Heartbreaker

· Leave a comment ·

After falling out with Lance, Draco leaves home to travel the world. Along the way he ends up in quite a few romantic relationships, none of which end well. Essentially, when he arrives to a new place, he ends up dating someone, but since he never plans on staying long, he ends up breaking up with them before long. Most of the people he dates aren’t too happy about this and Draco now rivals Ramona Flowers for number of antagonistic exes. The first place Draco went was Unova, where he almost immediately hooked up with Tipha and broke up with her almost as quickly. There were some hard feelings, but all things considered it was one of his most amicable breakups. After Unova, Draco headed to Kalos, where he started dating Basil. That relationship ended when Basil found out Draco planned on ditching him and Draco ended up getting kicked out of Baz’s apartment in a very dramatic fashion. Draco’s next stop was Hoenn, where he started a very spite-filled relationship with Apollon that mostly involved the two of them sitting around and insulting people. It was never a super serious relationship, but Draco ended up hooking up with Suzi at some point when he was still dating Apollon, later dumping Apollon in favor of Suzi after Apollon found out about the cheating. Of course, he and Suzi didn’t last long as barely a month later, Draco left for Sinnoh with barely any word. In Sinnoh, Draco had what was probably his least drama-filled and healthiest relationship with Verity. The drama from Hoenn had stressed Draco out and he was ready to just chill a bit in Sinnoh and the easy-going Verity was perfect for that. He was upfront from the start that it wouldn’t last, and the two enjoyed some nice time together before Draco decided to head to Alola – the only place where he didn’t date anyone. Finally, his last stop before heading back home at long last after a good couple of years, Draco returned to Unova, and somewhat accidentally started dating Cypress. He had planned on it being a quick thing like all his other relationships, but unlike his previous partners, Draco was Cypress’ first real romantic relationship and Draco had no idea how to easily let Cypress go. The whole thing culminated in an explosive fight and breakup when Draco announced he was returning to his home region and planned on staying. Both of them left the relationship feeling horrible and to this day, Cypress hates capes due to associating them with Draco. Perhaps the only good thing to come of that disastrous relationship was that, later on, Cypress and Apollon would bond over their dislike of Draco when they end up dating. Draco, on his part, returns home, makes up with his father, and settles down with his childhood friend and sweetheart, Addie. 

Draco with 22, 27, 31, and B?

Sure thing! Thanks for the ask!

22. How does jealousy manifest itself in them (they become possessive, they become aloof, etc)?


Draco has a tendency to become very withdrawn and cold when he’s jealous. He’ll act passive aggressive and distant towards someone when he’s jealous of them, particularly when he’s jealous of a relationship they have. He has a bad habit of not getting along with people who don’t share his views, but then because he just gets really distant when he’s bothered by someone or jealous of them and expects them to figure out what the problem is, people just leave him alone since they don’t want to deal with all that. And then he gets pouty because everyone’s ignoring him. He’s rather emotionally immature that way, which is something he grows out of somewhat as he heads into his late teens and twenties, especially after returning home and settling down with Addie.

27. What causes them to feel dread?


Draco is extremely protective of his friends and family. Any of them being in danger is essentially his worst nightmare. The death of his sister and his father’s subsequent injuries when he was very young instilled a premature sense of mortality in him. Draco is terrified of his loved ones getting hurt to the point of paranoia. Even when his relationship with Lance is strained, Draco still regularly makes sure his father is in good health. I would say his greatest fear is knowing a loved one is in danger, but being unable to help them. This scenario already happened to him once and the thought of it happening again definitely instills dread in him.

31. Who are they the most glad to have met?


I suppose the ‘expected’ answer here would be his wife, Addie, but I think Draco is actually most thankful to have met Maia. Maia is such a no-nonsense and direct kind of woman, that she was exactly the kind of person Draco needed to meet to snap him out of a lot of the bad mindsets and habits he fell into in his teenage years. Maia was essentially the person Draco *thought* he was, and she was able to help get him started back on the right track with a bit of tough love. To this day, Draco is extremely grateful for all the help Maia gave him and considers her one of his closest friends and mentors.

B) What inspired you to create them?
Gosh. Draco is definitely one of my older fankids, and I originally created him just to flesh out Johto a bit, have some more Honshuese dragonblood characters, some older fankids for Renato to interact with, etc. He was never really fleshed out that much until I decided to go fully aboard the Langst Train and introduced Noelle and her death. (Yes, Noelle was created to be killed off, I’m sorry sweetie, at least you get to be a cool ghost kid.) From there I was able to solidify his character better. Draco went from ‘bro goofball who is at odds with Adelinda because she dislikes his attitude’ to ‘closed off and damaged young man with a superiority complex, father issues, and a host of deep-rooted problems whose character arc involves discovering his own faults and overcoming past trauma on a journey of self-discovery before returning to his roots to settle down happily with his childhood friend.’ Which is a lot more interesting in my opinion, at least.

Lance & Ethan

· Leave a comment ·

Something that likely won’t be brought up often in universe is the fact that Ethan is Draco’s biological father (with Lance being his other biological father). The circumstances behind this are a bit convoluted. Lance’s wife, Sybil, had died shortly after the birth of their daughter, Noelle, and two years later Lance was struggling as a single parent. Ethan was 18 at the time and in what we’ll call an exploratory phase of his life. He wasn’t quite sure what he wanted to do, be it science like his father, or raising pokémon like his grandparents, or something else entirely. He came to know Lance through Lyra some years previous and the two managed to become quite good friends despite the six year age gap. Ethan also had to admit some attraction to Lance as well, though of course he’d never acted on it. Over lunch one day, Lance brought up that he was considering having another child, a sibling for Noelle so she could have someone to spend time with when he wasn’t around, but that he wasn’t interested in a relationship just yet and was considering his options. Ethan hesitantly admitted his attraction and suggested the possibility of being the other parent of Lance’s child. To his surprise, Lance accepted. The two understood that this was a strictly no-strings-attached affair but found the arrangement worked out for the both of them. Since the child would be raised by Lance, he was the one to go through with the pregnancy, and Draco was born nine months later. Draco does not find out the identity of his other parent until he is in his teens (though he does know that he and Noelle were half-siblings). Neither parent wanted to make drama by revealing their arrangement, so the identity of Draco’s other parent is kept under wraps. Finding out about Ethan is part of the reason Draco comes to resent Lance so much in his teens. Ethan does end up telling his wife, Whitney, about Draco after they had been dating for a while, as he felt she should know if they were going to have a serious relationship, but their daughter, Carmen, doesn’t know that she has a half-brother. In the end, Lance and Ethan do question whether their decision to keep Draco’s parentage a secret was the right one, but what’s done is done. All things considered, the two remain close friends to this day.
