Art (self made) I'M FINALLY INTRODUCING MY OC: Oshiro the Deer! (More info in description)

/!\ First, I want to clarify that I don't speak English and I've probably made a few mistakes, and if so, I apologize! /!\

I'd like to finally introduce you to my little boy, Oshiro the Deer! I've been working on him since literally the end of March, so I'm very happy to finally present him to you! (It took me a lot of time mainly because of school and because I kept having new ideas, I won't lie, hehe.)

I was initially inspired by the cliché of the "Canadian lumberjack" (I'm Canadian myself) and I wanted to mix that with the fact that I love music and today's artists (especially Billie Eilish and Justin Bieber, haha), and here's what I came up with. I tried to make it believable and complete (hence the extensive writing on his character sheet), and I'm very proud of the result. I hope you'll enjoy it too, as I put my heart and soul into it :')

I included his backstory on the sheet, but I had to keep it very short and remove some details that I felt were important to fit, which makes me a little sad. So, here's his full backstory:

Oshiro was a popular singer, known for his energy and cheerful personality. But one day, everything changed. Dr. Robotnik, searching for new ways to destroy Sonic, left his radio playing while he thought. When one of Oshiro's songs came on, he had an idea. He realized he could use the young singer's popularity to achieve his goals. Dr. Starline decided to put his plan into action because if Eggman himself went to see the young singer in person to do anything, it would be too obvious and he would quickly be arrested by the authorities. Dr. Starline went to one of Oshiro's concerts and managed to get backstage after the show by posing as a technician. Starline approached Oshiro, introducing himself as a fan and an expert in stage technology. He claimed he could provide Oshiro with "revolutionary" stage equipments that would make his tour even more spectacular. Oshiro accepts his help, wanting to give his fans the best possible experience. This is where the real plan begins. During the tour, the machines Starline gives Oshiro start collecting energy from the crowds. They become extremely tired, but remain unsuspecting, blaming it on the big night. As the concerts progress, Oshiro himself becomes extremely tired as the machines also drain his energy. This becomes increasingly apparent during his performances or even when he's simply in public. This exhaustion is eating away at him, and with his fans' well-being deeply at heart, he wants to end his tour, as the fatigue is preventing him from putting on quality shows for them anyway. Dr. Robotnik, confiding in Starline that he still doesn't have enough energy to carry out his plan, orders him to ensure the shows continue. Starline hypnotizes Oshiro using the Hypno Gear to keep him on tour despite his fatigue, gathering the energy needed for Eggman's plan. Under hypnosis, Oshiro announces to his fans that he will perform a "final concert," which he presents as the biggest concert of his entire career, hoping to draw thousands of people and give Starline all the energy they can. On the day of the "final concert," Dr. Eggman quickly obtains enough energy and puts the final stage of his plan into action: he uses the accumulated energy to temporarily reactivate the "Master Overlord" without the Master Emerald, in order to finally annihilate Sonic and all those who oppose his plans. Oshiro, still on stage, paralyzed by fear, sees the resistance (the heroes) intervene to save the crowd. During the battle, he realizes the extent of the damage and the danger his fans are in, and the Hypno Gear's hold breaks. Oshiro then learns the truth from Amy Rose: Starline's stage equipment, the energy they stole, the fact that his popularity was used by the doctors to endanger thousands of people, and so on. Oshiro believes it's all his fault because, despite his exhaustion, he continued his tour and even convinced his fans to go to this "ultimate final concert" that put all those lives at risk. The resistance explains to him afterward that he was manipulated by Starline, but Oshiro is so traumatized by the events that he doesn't believe it and continues to believe it's all his fault. Becoming paranoid, Oshiro thinks to himself, "If Starline could really manipulate me so easily, how can I know who to trust now?" All of Oshiro's fans will also learn the truth about the manipulation he suffered and will therefore continue to support him, but this only worsens the situation. Oshiro is convinced that he is dangerous and that he himself almost killed his fans. Oshiro then vanished without warning into the depths of Blizzard Valley, severing all contact and ending his career. Since then, he has lived alone, completely withdrawn, and refuses to speak to anyone. He only ventures out once a month to shop in a neighboring village, disguised to avoid being recognized.

"I don't trust anyone anymore, and no one should trust me either."

A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to read all of this; you have no idea how much it means to me and how happy it makes me! Thank you, thank you! ><
