Why you should vote for Theta Ivanushka in lemon-demon-oc-tournament
Yep this counts as propaganda for @lemon-demon-oc-tournament
She has dedicated her life to investigating the occult and extra terrestrial, and has an immortal pet mongoose called Gef. She finds out that a company is cloning celebrities, and in her attempts to expose this, gets dragged into a world of chaos.
A scientist from that company wound up at her door thinking her the only person who would believe her.
She has to deal with a haunted arcade machine.
She has to deal with the seemingly alive house of a man who died when regular investigative personal start reporting severe mental distress.
She finds out that the local coroner/mortician is actually the vampiric offspring of a caveman and ancient alien.
She gets kidnapped by the CEO of the company she's investigating, finds herself in a really high building, and eventually finds herself on the maintenance catwalks at the top of the building surrounded by clones instructed to walk in a circle until they die from exhaustion. She kills the CEO by cutting the catwalk support cables, and nearly dies in the process.
But it's not over.
She THEN has to deal with the company cloning civilians and someone who calls himself the moongod.

I kinda wanted to do something with theta (i have a drawing of her in the wings but am waiting until next wednesday), and wanted to do something pixel arty, so I took MY OWN DRAWING of her, linked here https://www.deviantart.com/paigelts05/art/Spirit-Phone-inspired-OCs-870997594 because it's my art, and I shrunk it down and cleaned it up, and after I cleaned it up, it looked a lot like the character sprites you see in DS games. I then made the background from scratch. I made use of the trapezium from the shape tool for the light patch on the floor, the rectangle select for the floor's base colour and the railing, and I freehanded the UFO.
I turned this into a gif.
This is a 6 frame cycle
For character movement, there are 3 distinct movement frames: 1 is the default pose, 2 is moved at the knee down by 1 by 1 pixel, and frame 3 is lower than frame 2 by 1 pixel. Frame 4's character animation is frame 2, frame 5 and 6 are frame 1.
For the background, the lights on the UFO loop back on themselves but only bearly, and there are 2 stars that flicker in and out of existance.
Theta is an OC based on the song “touch tone telephone”.
