Hello, this is Taru. I assume that you're up to date with all the shenanigans we get into in the Locker Room. So what am I going to do here? What Terry does rather well: bore you out with lectures about how each individual world functions, explaining spells, whatever. Basically, anyone can put headcanons with their own individual worlds here. I'll get my own lecture up soon, but in the meantime, lecture away!!!!

Okay, this is Silverangel, and I'm going to talk about one of my characters: Aquarius.

Aquarius
Birthday: February 7 (Aquarius)
Height: 5' 0"
Weight: 90 lbs.

I took a lot of inspiration from other things when making this character. For example, he obviously has tentacle-like hair and a cap similar to Squid Girl. However, I also got the 'moving hair' thing from two other fictional characters: Medusa (who is famous in Greek mythology), and Niche (from Tegami Bachi, a manga series). Medusa has the snake-hair thing, but Niche's hair is divided into six blades that can cut just about anything. Aquarius can do a similar thing, but he needs to use magic in order to do so (otherwise it's as easy as cutting squid when it comes to cutting his hair, or hair if he's relaxed).

Another character I took ideas from is Gilgamesh from the Final Fantasy series. What I got was Gilgamesh's habit of collecting swords. Aquarius also likes to collect swords. Both characters can also wield more than two swords at the same time (Gilgamesh has six or eight arms, I forgot. Aquarius can wield up to twelve weapons thanks to tentacles).

While that's all about Aquarius himself, there are a few things about his equipment that I got inspiration from. Elucidator is obviously from Sword Art Online. Lambent Frost's name was based on Asuna's Lambent Light (also from SAO), though they are different types of swords. The idea of using a Greek name for Psychri Okeanos (Frigid Ocean) was from Percy Jackson and the Olympians (where Percy had Anaklusmos, aka Riptide). Finally, the Super Analysis Glasses were based off a pair of glasses from Fairy Tail (a manga series), where it allows a user to read from 2 to 32 times faster.
