Ignore all the backstories, they're old and incorrect now. I'm useing their old backstories as filler until I write an updated version. I'm also working on drawing reference sheets for them and adding more of my OCs as I go. This section of the site should be done by the time Art Fight rolls around (fingers crossed).
