Elenoa - Version 2020

I wanted to give my old OC Elenoa a bit of a makeover, she deserved it! ^^ 

Here's what she looked like in 2007:

She's one of my oldest and dearest characters, she will always have a special place in my heart. So much that a lot of her transpires into my work today, her HAIR for exemple, I noticed yesterday that I gave my very new OC Tham her exact haircut with the long fringe thingy lol
That's what motivated me to give her a lift, been wanting to do that for a while actually.


A bit about her:

• She's a catgirl. *sigh* Yes, I was a weeaboo in middle school lmao
• She has powers related to thunder.  And a bit of ninja skills, but she was too clumsy or loud to be efficient. She's a more direct kind of girl.
• She's over 100 years old I believe... She originates from another world, currently living on "earth". 
• She has a long term boyfriend, Kuro, a ninja warrior. They're either jumping into swordfights for no reason, bickering like an old married couple, or downright making out in front of everyone, there's no in between. They are loyal to each other till the ends of times. (I actually started to develop another story about their backstory when I was in high school, it was cool.)(still stupid, but cooler. Very dramatic. With oracles and shit.)
• One of Elenoa's best friend is Sadako from the Grudge. Yes. The monster took off and decided to go to high school in Japan. And made friends with our characters. (I actually updated this character too because she was very dear to me, she's now more of a mix between Rin from Fruit's Basket and Yuko from XXXHolic. A gothic/grunge girl with monsterific powers. And Kuro's long lost sister. Her name is Saundra.) (damn this makes me want to draw all of them now haha)

Genesis:
I made her in middle school with my best friend at the time, we were creating a graphic novel *sigh* that was... a complete clusterfuck lmao it was a mix between all the mangas and anime we loved, we each had our own set of characters that lived together in this high school action/comedy/romance sort of manga, it was so stupid, but gosh I love it.

I still have it on my computer and read it sometimes, it's so bad x) Every panel is traced from a manga, I can pinpoint which exactly. My character was the aloof catgirl from a shonen anime, her boyfriend was a total mix between Fai and Kurogane from Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle (I was obsessed back then), (also Hotaru from Samurai Deeper Kyo if I remember correctly? And Ryo Okayasu from Peach Girl omg what a mess)
There was Mireille, a dojiko magical girl living in a tent on the streets, that our characters opened their house to.

My best friend's characters was the shojo heroine caught in a love triangle with Hotaru's brother from Samurai Deeper Kyo, i don't remember his name lol and another guy that was a ripoff from one of her favourite shojo idk it was glorious. There was also a token pervert/seductive character that was Elenoa's rival for some reason.
And an alcoholic high school girl.
Also a vampire. 

Completely stupid, but what good memories. There was no conceivable plot, we stopped after 30 pages of going nowhere. 


Anyways....
