Hi, I was just wondering you know. I'm kinda wondering 'cuz I'm so gosh darn curious. Does anyone actually have their own OCs? The fanbase is just so microscopic. Is there any room for them. I know some people have'em. Sometimes they paire'm up with each other. Ya, know Joike? Aw, I'm not picky, but seeing everyones experimenting. Does anyone have any on DA? I saw like a couple before. Queen Shadowrama talked about it. Anyone for the sake of conversation?

*raises hand* I-I do. The reason you don't find her on DeviantArt is because I negate to mention MST3K anywhere in the pieces because I am that friggin' embarrassed out it. So who did I make. Well, here, a kind of alright picture. Dr. Arian Pierce. Yes, I made a scientist to sex up Dr. F, essentially. She runs around Gizmonic Institute, bumps into him, and, as Robyn would put it, a relationship develops that is both cute and horribly creepy at the same time. 'CAUSE NOTHING SAYS "I LOVE YOU" LIKE DEATH THREATS. And while I love her to pieces and she is the most like, morose and straight-man character I've made, I'm so embarrassed to share her to the world. ._.;

OMG, that is so cool. I was sort of afraid of showing my OC too. Despite that almost every fanbase has them. I just felt so lonely because no one really flaunts their's. My OC was an intern working for Dr. Forrester. Actually it was based on a back story I created just for fun. Originally he was supposed to be a woman.
But I changed that.

MY favorite OC, of course, is Ashley Forrester, Dr. Forrester's teenage niece! She's not evil like the rest of her family and she's really smart and knows about chemicals and computers and she has a talking cat named Neko-chan! 8DDD No, seriously, her name is Neko-chan. I love this fanfic, it's so insane. The MST3K fandom doesn't have many Mary Sues, but WHEN THEY DO... Seriously though, I love Dr. Pierce with Dr. Forrester, but then I'm a sucker for dysfunctional relationships. My OTPs include Vegeta/Bulma and Joker/Harley, so there you go. Ronnie, I think I've seen your OC on DA. Luke, right? He's cute. xP I don't usually make OCs cause uh, making original characters is HARD. That's why the very seldom times that I write, it's usually fanfiction, cause I can just write characters that already have their personalities and history all ironed out. Half the work is done for me! xD Of course I'm planning for Pierce to make an appearance in my "apocageddon" story, that'll be an interesting challenge...

Now I want to make one! Joel's wife! *shot* Hmmm, I've got a few tiny ideas that I might be able to use for an OC. I think making one would be fun! I'm surprised I haven't tried to make one before this, haha.

I've once tried for a whole night trying to find that fanfiction! I missed it so much because there was so many chapters. I never finished it all... The memories, I thought no one else knew. I'm not alone thank the powers.

Now I want to make one! Joel's wife! *shot* LOL, go for it. I admit I actually wanted to make an OC, a gal who gets shot into space with Joel for some reason and hijinks ensue, but I knew it would devolve into blatant wish-fulfillment. xD But come to think of it, I DID have an idea for an OC that Joel meets shortly after landing in Australia. See, she's a bounty hunter. She sees Joel come out of the spaceship and assumes he's an alien, so she captures him with the intention of selling him to the highest bidder. But other bounty hunters get the same idea and try to take Joel and wacky adventures across Australia ensue. Eventually Joel convinces her he's NOT an alien and they become friends BUT THEN she gets a call from Dr. Forrester who found out what happened to Joel and is offering big bucks for him! What happens next!? ...Well, if I ever write the story, I guess you'll find out. 8P The memories, I thought no one else knew. I'm not alone thank the powers. Heh, as I wandered the MST3K fandom I kept hearing whispers of "Technoservo" and the dreaded "Mst3k Chronicles." I FINALLY found it thanks to a broken link and the Wayback Machine. I was so thrilled, I felt like I'd found the Holy Grail. xD I honestly don't think it's THAT bad, I mean, she writes a very good Dr. Forrester, pretty much all his scenes are IC and hilarious. And Ashley's character is actually okay...I just hate how she steals the whole damn show! xD Seriously, Joel is in a coma for 90% of the story, and Mike and the Bots don't do ANYTHING except sit around waiting for him to die! And then in the second act they sit around waiting for ALL of them to die! Geez, just slit my wrists, why doncha!? (Also, Neko-chan. NEKO-CHAN. WTF.)

All this talk of fan characters reminds me of Dr. Jeremy Forrester and his assistant Astrid, two characters I made up for a project Kat, Trip and I are involved with.
Pretty much, Jeremy is Forrester's nephew who was this child prodigy-type and was well on his way to bringing prestige and respectability back to the Forrester name until a grizzled old Bobo approached him with his uncle's work. Being a scientist, Jeremy had to figure out the holes in his uncle's research and decided that the reason his uncle and grandmother failed for so long was the fact there was only one human test subject and the possibilities for tortuous media was limited. Therefore, he used his contacts to secretly build a base on the dark side of the moon and rocket-shipped a group of young people there.
With the aid of old!Bobo and Astrid, a European scientist just trying to work off her student loans with this internship, they torture a whole new set of people. Old!Bobo and Jeremy are pretty much like a peanut gallery and Astrid is the one who pretty much runs everything. She can get pretty snippy though, since she feels cheated out of a proper internship, and sometimes does nothing for Forrester and leaves him to blunder around, since he's pretty new to the whole mad/evil scientist thing.

We're a bunch of crackheads is what it is... No, I think the thing is - and a lot of us have pointed it out - is that in a fanuniverse like MST3K, you simply don't show off your OC 'cause it's a bit embarrassing. Also there isn't a whole lot for them to do, because the universe is so small. They either have to hang around Gizmonic or get shot into space, which screws with continuity a bit. Okay, it's something that bothers me. I like it when characters smoothly fit into a storyline IT'S HOW I AM OKAY. Which is why I bite the bullet and just go with it because I freakin' can. Oh, and nobody pays attention to me. Yay! Ronnie, gotta say, I may just one day get off my ass and draw Luke and Pierce because...because the idea amuses me. XD;

Hi. *waves, then realizes she is late to the party, then shrugs* Oh well... As a huge fan and writer of fanfiction, I have to admit that just within the past two weeks I have developed my own little character for a mary sue MST3K fanfic. Her name is Adrianna Fielder and she works at the Gizmonic Diner we see in the commercial break cut-aways of the Joel era. She is smart and could have worked at Gizmonics Institute except that the funding wasn't there and so she got stuck at the diner. She knows a lot of the people at Gizmnonics and is on fairly good terms with Dr. Forrester. Then, of course she meets Joel and it progresses from there...
I have to say, I have this fic almost entirely outlined and am very tempted to write it. If I were to post it on like fanfiction.net or something, would anyone be interested in reading it? I know mary sues aren't that popular, but I can't write decent Joike to save my life...

First off, hi! I'm new here, so for those who don't know me, I'm Kate. Secondly...
I have an OC named Candy Stewart who was Joel's girlfriend on Earth (in other words, before he was shot into space). Her character isn't developed very well yet, but I'm thinking about making her a waitress at the "Big G" Diner. Maybe when I get more ideas I'll post about her later...

*waves at kate * Nice to meet you, Kate. I am pretty new here too. Glad to see there is still some activity on this message board. Well, I have a knack for creating fan characters for shows/movies I like (Kind of a sad really), so OF COURSE MST3K had to get a character too. My fan character is still pretty bare bones now but heres what I got so far: Her name is Christine Turner. She starts out as a *reluctant* secratary for Dr. Forrester, before he shot Joel into space. The way I see it is that Dr. F wouldnt just want one test subject for his world dominating experiment. So he started using her as a test subject (locked away or also in space; havent figured it out)but her reaction is not what Dr. F expected.... Instead of going insane, she developed a sort of trigger personality as a protection for her mind; whenever she hears a certain phrase ("movie sign") she goes into this trance mode, where she is unresponsive and a bit zombie-ish. Christine will only snap out of it when she hears a second trigger phrase, that only Dr. F knows of. I am still working on fleshing out her as a character before I try to write anything. My problem w/ the story is...I want to pair her w/ someone... but I dont know who. At first, I was going to have her be with Joel, having him be her knight in maroon armor (in his own Joel-ish way of course) but then I kinda like the idea of the story being a bit darker, and having Christine being at the mercy of Dr. Forrester (what kind of slave would he have her be; regular or.. *ahem* other). But then, if I wrote it that way....OOOHHH, too many ideas (I am blaming you girls for this; yes, you. After visiting Traces sub-board...well, I am looking at the Doctor very differently..) Anyways, I would appreciate any feedback at all. Glad to have found this board. Its such fun.. ;D

*waves back* Nice to meet you!
Your OC made me remember a character I made up a while back, named Sylvia who's sort of a female-assistant-with-a-crush to Dr. Forrester. (Think Harley Quinn from Batman.) I haven't really done much with her recently, though...
Oh, and you're not alone...I also look at Dr. F. in a totally different way after having gone through Trace's sub-board. XDD

Well, I have a few old drawings and a couple fanfictions I could send you...it might take a while because the Internet on my computer is down and I have to use the Pro boards iPhone app to get here. Edit: It's fixed. If you want to see anything, I could get them to you as early as tomorrow.

I even have an idea like that in mind. She's roughly my height & body-type (except she's fit instead of fat....basically me as a thin person). She's pretty perky, curvy & cute, with brown hair & eyes...however, she's a bit of a homage to early KTMA Joel...similar beige jumpsuit & same long hairstyle...she's sort of an odd blend of An idealized version of Me, Dottie from PeeWee's Big Adventure & a bit of Early Joel (I should draw a pic, sounds odd in words). I'm undecided between calling her "Katrina" or "Brandy".
