Meet Rizza, My Original Character/Persona

I made this cutie because I was tired of never having a character to use that wasn't a fan character for my avatars or banners. So that's where Rizza comes in. She's a grizzly/American black bear hybrid, though I leaned the art style to be more teddy bear shaped because it fits with the themes I tend to go for (dreams and stars for example). I'm just so happy to finally have a character to call fully my own that's not associated with anything else but me. I know I could have easily just drawn myself to use as an avatar. That's boring though and I wanted something cuter if I ever needed a mascot for a brand. Anyway, that's pretty much it, this is my persona/mascot and I hope you like her. :3

Yay! Thank you so much I love it! It’s fine, I would of been happy with the one but I appreciate the extra! Poor Zeke, he’s great at the grappling part of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu but that’s about it.

Maybe Jimmy Jr. and/or Flips White Fudge can help train him to be more flexible. XD

Thank you again for doing my suggestion!

Oooh martial arts buddies

(He's trying to show her a cool training pose but poor boy's a little stiff)

OOOH BUDDIES

Thanks @qilin-crusader for suggesting these two precious kiddos. I would love to do your pun off idea but I'm not good at wordplay pffft. Have an extra though :D

I think after "Yes without my Zeke" Tina might loosen up on Zeke's troublemaking so he gets to stay at Wagstaff. Cuz ya know, maybe she doesn't mind too much having to "share" Jimmy Jr. Maybe she's grown to have a little soft spot for the smelly stocky boy

@splungecoyote I hope you can find this useful.

@mambocat No,no! It has nothing to do with you. I was referring to that my comments don’t always get replied to. Mostly because I don’t always bring up anything worth adding onto for various reasons or I just reblogged at a bad time and I get missed accidentally.

You did nothing wrong, I just mostly said that out of pessimism. I’m a little histrionic (that’s a word you don’t read every day).

Anyway, to get back on topic. Mario Odyssey looks nice but reminiscent of Sonic Adventure and only makes it worse when Mario rolls like Sonic now. Here’s to hoping Project 2017 is awesome.

So I need to just take a moment to poop on everyone’s party…I just watched the trailer for “Super Mario Odyssey,” and while it does indeed look very interesting, I can’t help but feel salty over the double standard being utilized here.

So the trailer starts with what appears to be New York or some other large REAL WORLD city, with actual humans - as in realistic ones - walking around minding their own business, and then SUDDENLY here comes Mario with his signature whoo hoo to turn everything into fodder for his cartoon physics.

Now that in and of itself is not a bad thing, no problem with the premise itself. My issue is…fairly simple to understand and may even come off as petty but I’ll risk it regardless.

If everyone is excited about Mario being in the real world…

WHY IN GOD’S NAME WAS IT CONSIDERED A HORRIBLE IDEA FOR SONIC AND STILL IS TO THIS DAY?!

As soon as Mario does it, all that talk about “oh Sonic is a cartoon hedgehog and he doesn’t belong in a realistic universe” goes out the window. You can’t praise Mario for doing it and then say Sonic doesn’t belong when they’re both video game characters who are clearly “out of place” in the world they’re in.

The only difference I can foresee happening here is that Mario won’t have much of a “story” as usual despite the name “odyssey” and Mario of course won’t talk.

And if that does turn out to be the key difference, then Sonic being in the real world was never the problem as so many people claim. The issue was the story itself. How dare someone take a silent protagonist and try to give him a personality?

SEGA tried everything to “backpedal” from the hyper realistic art style, making the humans more cartoony as opposed to actually looking like real life humans. But it didn’t matter, Sonic was still in the “real” world and thus it was bad.

Only when humans (sans Eggman) were cut out altogether were so-called fans happy with the world Sonic lived in again. Where all the humans? Who cares, Sonic shouldn’t be with humans anyway.

But apparently this is okay, because it’s Mario instead of Sonic. Real humans? Yeah that’s okay! It’s about time Mario ventured past the Mushroom Kingdom a little bit!

I call BS, hard.

Since Mario did what he did, then I don’t wanna hear one godforsaken complaint from ANYONE if Project 2017 decides to go back to using human background characters.

I’ve gotten into debates with gamer friends of mine who say that Sonic in the real world (Earth) actively angers them. I should ask them how they feel about Mario and see if they expose their own hypocrisy.

I’m sorry if this angers anyone who thinks I’m complaining too early, but again, it’s not what Mario did that bothers me, it’s that people will inevitably complain if/when Sonic decides to do the EXACT SAME THING while Mario gets praise for it.

That’s why I say I don’t wanna see anyone get angry with Sonic in the real world…but we all know they will. Because it’s Sonic.

Poor guy, he’s doomed to be hated for all of eternity.

Oh my word! And to think all this time I thought Shadow wouldn’t like the concept of eating and/or wouldn’t need to (like Pearl). My view on Shadow just got so much better XD!

@superotakugirl1993 I hope you appreciate this.

everytime i see anything with shadow in it i think of this interview thing from like 2005

this is an official thing sonic team did shadow the hedgehog canonically likes doritos

I love this so much! It's so precious! It made my night and actually got me out of the tired state I was feeling! X3 Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! It's also it's very in character so good job with that too! I feel like I should add more but I don't know what else to add except I love it and I never expected such a kind gift for my precious oc.
