Redid Cheri’s character ref bc the old one was. More than a year old! Oops!
She also have a (extremely unfinished) toyhouse page! read it in all of its work in progress glory !
For those new to her, I am a staunch believer of the junior agents still needing mentors post graduating the intern program, and with raz being left without one after psychonauts 2, he is assigned to Cher!
it’s been a whole year since a got into psychonauts, but also! Made Cheri!
Well a little more than a year bc that was like early-mid October but! Wow!!! I really didn’t think its been that long! Especially for Cher I didn’t realize I had made her so early on!
My first exposure to psychonauts was watching Holly’s whole play through the games, so commemorating getting into psychonauts and creating Cher, I mashed all of those things into the worlds shittiest animatic—
HAPPY HOLLOWED WEEN!! This was for jjs_artjam’s spooky psychonauts art collab over on insta!! I got my oc Cher n Raz, but only ended up using the Coraline one for the collab! (People just liked that one more lol)
IN MY HEART THO cher would go as Carrie for Halloween haha, she woulda dress Raz up as chucky because she thought it was funny I’ve doubt Raz has ever really seen any horror movies fjfj
Dam you silly goose! You forgot about Cher in your transgender PN villain post!!!! Give the details of her transfem swag NOWWWW!!!!!! /lh
Oh!! I didn’t include her bc I didn’t feel like it!! /hj
(But in actuality I Almost put a tag on the last post saying I almost included Cher, but shes not entirely a villain and I don’t rlly feel like it. But I didn’t feel like putting that tag either—)
SO.
Cher probably has the backstory I have the most Difficult time deciding what I want for it, so it’ll be kinda vague on that part</3. I DO know that she probably came out when she was like 8-10, and started to transition when she was in high school ish. Probably not rlly medically but at least socially. She’s the type where she never really felt like a boy at all. And an Idea I had for her backstory (that I’m still actually not solid on), is that her parents were really neglectful, and instead of being dismissive they more just outright ignored her, so she was kind of just left to her own world as a child. She’s a very out and proud trans woman, which in part is a reflection of her transformation from meek and ignored child, to whatever the fuck was going on with the hex Hellcat, to someone who’s confident and solid in doing what she loves and presenting herself how she likes, regardless of any anxieties she may still have!
