Only your Hispanic Characters!

[Leyelle]

It's hispanic heritage month, so I want to celebrate my diaspora. Let's see your hispanic OCs!

I'll start with the obvious

(art by me)

This is my female lead Alicia Palmero from "Damsel in the Red Dress." Mexican and Navajo.

[Heidifisk]

Alma, the main female lead of Evening Star: Connecting Strings!

She was a pretty fun character to write for!

[Leyelle]

what ethnicity is she?

[0gorecakes0]

Daisy Webber Castillo! She's the main lead of "HellWay" !!

[Heidifisk]

The original idea was her to be of Latino decent. Though since she is a demon it might be subject to change.

[NickRowler]

Bertie (Alberto) is Guatemalan with albinism

Zanna is Peruvian

Crow is a White Latino

[daeygurart]

Alexander Santiago (half-greek and half-Puerto rican!)

[allisoncandraw]

Bobbie (my MC) and his brother David are both half Mexican!

And Randy, their neighborhood mechanic, is Cuban!

[Leyelle]

where specifically (like, nationality etc.) s Crow from or did you not decide?

[Leyelle]

Marilee Montoya from my novel 'Crystal Blue.' Also Mexican though I think she might be multiethnic

[NickRowler]

IKD, I'm part Guatemalan so I guess also Guatemalan. Tho maybe the fact that he wears cowboy boots all the time might seem a bit Mexican coded.

Tho in the context of the story, he grew up without his parents, so it is possible he won't know what he is.

ah, unfortunately, that's a very real possibility. ancestry can be hard to trace

We got my favourite boi, Ira, I've been hyping myself up about Halloween recently and Ira is one of the two main characters for my paranormal fantasy. He's half Mexican and half ancient godlike horror that also sometimes looks like a Filipino woman (named herself Alacrán, she likes giving very straightforward names, which is why Ira's name is literally "Wrath" in Spanish, his dad was too shaken by the whole 'god birthing' process to protest at the time).

He's super close with his dad and his fully human half-sisters and spends the series earning the respect of his other demi-god siblings who are 500 years older than him and aren't particularly happy about him existing.

I got TWO count ‘em TWO Spanish characters
Casey who is mixed Puerto rican (and black)

I myself and Guatemalan AND Mexican
TWO count ‘em TWO-

[Leyelle]

Lol. I have tons of Hispanic ocs too. Most of them are in Damsel in the Red Dress, but I seem to have at least one per series

[sophialyn]

Representation
In my other wip, my lead is Guatemalan and Mexican (Gotta represent myself)
I hope to eventually represent every Spanish and Latin person in the world!

[Leyelle]

That's a huge undertaking, but I'm sure you'll be able to do it. I'm tryna represent more of the diaspora too, rn, most of my casts are Dominican or Mex lol

[beebutterbee]

I have so many Hispanic characters! So I’ll just name the few that have shown up in Butter Bee so far… their in canon races go by different names but it’s just because it’s fantasy… scifi? Theyre based in real world ethnicities tho!

Lady Lock is Mexican and Nepali

And her girlfriend Chariot is also Mexican! And she has some Greek ancestry too.

And then this guy is literally an alien, like a classic Grey alien, but he has some human heritage too, mainly Peruvian and Japanese, but it’s ALFRED or should I say ALFRIEND??

[Leyelle]

heir in canon races go by different names but it’s just because it’s fantasy… scifi? Theyre based in real world ethnicities tho!

Aye, Crystal blue is my first series with characters coded as ethnicities that they technically aren't quite. I guess it would be more correct for me to say they are Welsh kinds of mermaids, Greek kinds of dryads and so on.

I redrew an old picture of Alicia yesterday.
