this is for any OCs! what body language is typical of your character? perhaps they're tense and closed, or free and poised?

Nettle's pretty tense but not really closed, usually keeping her hands firmly by her side and tends to exaggerate her movements out of habit (not to scare Pokémon she's treating)

Astras the opposite, she talks with a lot of hand movements, and is very welcoming, but has a sense of defense around her.

Jin is usually pretty loose and confident, but in a fight her movements are a lot tighter and aggressive. And Mary can be a bit tensed up around people she doesn't know in a one-on-one setting but put her in front of a crowd and she's much calmer and pretty elegant.

I love this qn!!!

For Kingston I think good posture (out of habit of swordsmanship training ect.) but also he tends to have resting bitch face so people think he's in a bad mood even when he's not ASKJDF.

For Ruth, she's a bit tense and always tries to look poised (its very tiring). She has a tendency to avoid eye contact.

Grim is VERY tense. He doesn't really look like it most of the time but he's tense 4 out of 5 times you see him. If you're very perceptive you might realize it but he's very anxious. He has a tick, he tugs at his gloves when anxious and/or annoyed !

Due to her title, she usually has to be "stiff" around many higher-ups, even with the E4!

Surprisingly the only person that allows her to be more "loose" is the princess of Surico, Ohtli 😭😭 she wants to ensure that Norrie is comfy and UGH I love her for that 🥺🥺😭😭

Elio's generally relaxed but somehow stays alert at any given situation.

But for my other OCs like Andrew and Renee, it's generally extroverted!

Norra's is very relaxed for the most part. The only time she tenses up is if people question her strength in a public space.

Eudoxia is a bit more closed off and reserved.

Kazi's body language is tense, but that's due to the weight she has on her shoulders. Since Kazi is among one of the most busy characters I have in Czeraja.

Ironus has a major subconscious habit of doing jojo poses he isn't aware of from his desire to be seen as cool.
