The Zodiac Mission: Arts and Facts

Origin of O

As those who saw the very old version of TZM, you should know who Azura is. If you don't, she's a character that O used to be.

To be honest, I never really payed much attention to Azura. She was just a human and was just there to be a potential love interest for the main character. She never really had much of an important roll. Her personality was actually supposed to be like those badass type of girls. She was always silent and very mature in many situations, but also kind of... A stubborn brat. She wasn't going to have any type of humor actually. She was a character filled with sarcasm.

Azura was also more a Kuu/Tsundere type of person. She was going to be mostly mean and cold to the main characters but start showing more care later on but- I ended up irritating myself. The Tsundere I made Azura was the very annoying one. Like Taiga from Toradora (If you love the anime and Taiga, I apologize.)

Then came the recreation and Azura was now known as "O". O was actually going to be the same as Azura. The character that's there just for romantic moments. Buuuuuut, I actually wanted to give her an important roll... So I made her identity more of a secret, so that readers could figure out what she could possibly be. Then I finally decided to change O's behavior. She is still very polite and mature, but then I added more to her personality... By actually using mine.

I've been told by my friends that it's easy to base a main character or supporting character off of me, because of my personality. O's boysish side and her strange fantasies came from me, while her more silent and mysterious part came from my other friend. I also took the sarcasm from June and added it. It's not those sarcasm where you can tell they're very sarcastic, but it's more of the one where you actually can't really tell if they are sarcastic or not.

As for her humor... It's based of my friends and I. More of the childish humor, but also a little bit into the dark humor.

Re-writing O on the other hand, was actually pretty fun in my opinion. Especially since I managed to give her a very important role in the story, other than being the typical love interest.
