OMG! it's my failure of an OC contest entry! Available for your viewing pleasure! Enjoy!




Character’s Name: Aphrodite Sakura
Name Meaning: Aphrodite=goddess of love/beauty. Sakura=cherry blossom.
Character’s Nickname: Called Afro by her half-brothers
Age: 15
Occupation: prosecutor
Brief Physical Description: Aphrodite is stunningly beautiful. She has long blonde hair, which she usually wears straightened and loose. She has light, peach-colored skin, is slender, and has long arms and legs. She is about 5’8”. Her eyes are an unusual shade of deep purple, and she likes to wear clothes that accent them. On her thirteenth birthday, she got tattoos on her face and arms, as is typical for Caradian princesses. Aphrodite felt no need to remove them when she moved to America.

Aphrodite usually wears a light purple sleeveless minidress. The dress has a dark blue collar accented with pearls. She wears a pale blue belt with green trim. On her right hand, she wears a fingerless glove in the same shade of blue as her belt. She wears two pink wooden bangle bracelets on her left wrist. Aphrodite is never without her deep reddish brown boots. At first, she thought they were dull, so she wrapped red ribbons around them. Aphrodite wears a gold tiara with emerald studs on it, as she is still the Caradian crown princess.
Brief Personality Description: Aphrodite is, outwardly, very peppy and excitable. She is always either very happy or very sad. But even when she is sad, she is very dramatic about it.

Inside, Aphrodite is still deeply saddened by her mother’s death. She didn’t want anyone to comfort her about it, so she learned to keep her sad feelings in check. She never wanted anyone to worry about her.
Connection to Canon Characters: Detective Gumshoe is her dad, Maggey Byrde is her stepmom
Brief Background: Aphrodite’s mother was the crown princess of Caradia. Her mother and father (Gumshoe) met while her mother was traveling in the US. They married, but got divorced several years later. Some time after, Aphrodite was born. She was raised as a princess, thinking that the crown prince (her mother’s second husband, and Aphrodite’s stepdad) was her real father. Aphrodite was spoiled, and thus became dependant on others.

Aphrodite’s mother died when Aphrodite was 14. Aphrodite then learned that she had a different father. She was sent away to live with that father, having no idea who he was. When she arrived in the US by plane, she was horrified when a scruffy-looking man, followed by a petite woman pushing a double stroller, came up to her. The man introduced himself as Dick Gumshoe, her father. The woman was Maggey Byrde, his wife. Their twin boys were eighteen months old.

After a few months of being in complete and total shock and denial, Aphrodite finally accepted her new life. Her dad and stepmom were very surprised when she burst out of her room one day her cheerful self.

Soon after, Aphrodite heard about the famous Phoenix Wright. She decided that she wanted to meet him. She became a prosecutor, charming all the teachers at prosecuting school into giving her a badge after only one month of training.

Since Aphrodite had no training, she is the WORST prosecutor EVER. She always feels sorry for the defendant, and therefore makes no effort AT ALL to get a “Guilty” verdict. She has the ability to become a great prosecutor, but she doesn’t want to send people to jail or have them killed.

Because Aphrodite does not try to win cases, every defense attorney that wants to win takes cases that she prosecutes. When she loses the case (as she often does), she breaks out in tears, and can only be comforted by the defense.

Sometimes Aphrodite accidentally makes a good point during a trial. She then wins the case. Even when she wins a case, she cries. When she wins, she cries for the defendant. She once again needs to be comforted by the prosecutor.



Anyone like?

I like your art style. And that you use traditional media for your art. ^_^ Nice!

---

What do you mean by "traditional art style"?

---

I can't see the picture, once again.

---

haha sucks for you!
you know I'm jk!

---

Traditional media = not computer generated. Colored pencils, markers, etc.


I always like that.

---

It's good, but if I were you, I'd be very careful not to turn her into a mary-sue. She seems to already have some mary-suish qualities: beautiful, strange eye colour, royalty, sad family history, and a wonderful personality to match. My advise is to give her some faults and weaknesses. This could be a great OC~ keep at it =)

thanks for the input; it's greatly appreciated! ^_^ *hugs*
