Toxic OCT

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.
Don't you wish you paid more attention to the environment?

Toxic OCT is an Original Character Tournament currently on its final round, a surprisingly three way race for the gold, hosted on Deviant ART. The setting is basically a Garden of Evil.

Storyline is quite simple: A wide variety of characters are asked by one of four Guardians to help them to save their world from a creature named Toxen who has taken away their king. The name is a pun of the word "toxin", so his (its?) powers are quite obvious.


Guardians

Fin - Guardian of Fire, and a former king

Mother - Guardian of Plants and Life

Grivor - Guardian of Earth

Aiga - Guardian of Water

Maeve - Guardian of Air


Tropes used in Toxic OCT include:

The Official Contestants

Ethel

  • Creator: Artic-Moon Intro: [1] [dead link]
    • Gender Blender Name: Ethel is a 44 year old superhuman disguised as a normal business man. But Ethel is still a girl's name.
      • Although it is a codename, his original name is Jay Garfield.
      • In his defense, Ethel means "strong man" in Turkish.

Mycolo

  • Creator: Kat-a-line Intro [5]
    • Magic Mushroom: Mycolo's a person who's species originate from mushrooms.
    • Berserk Button: Mistake Mycolo for a woman and you'll be dealing with one pissy mushroom.
    • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Mycolo is definitely a jerk, but he does seem to care about others to a certain degree.
      • He saves Gabija from drowning (This is canon in Kat-A-Line's entries) and hands her off to Sa-Rang for medical treatment in exchange for a piece of mushroom from his head. Unfortunately he didn't even bother telling Sa-Rang that he was EXTREMELY poisonous and using a piece of himself for one of her potions would more than likely end up killing someone. Whoops!

Nevermind and Myren jr.

  • Creator: Britbau Intro [12]
    • Ambiguous Gender: Nevermind's entire species, though Nevermind thinks itself as a male.

Ro

Necro and Cadi

Locke

  • Creator: Dudumsomnium Intro [22] [dead link]
    • Butt Monkey - Locke is pretty much the epitome of bad luck. He's a big klutz and always manages to say the wrong thing at the wrong time, and is often the butt of jokes. Because of this, he has just about zero self-confidence and goes into ridiculous depressive mood swings.

Sparky and Clair

Roland

Alva

  • Creator: Charanty Intro [30]
    • Ambiguous Gender - Alva's species reproduce through a form of telepathy so in it's case both versions are correct.
    • Unicorn: Well, Alva doesn't exactly look like one but indirectly creator points out that it might be a unicorn.
    • Also a case of serious Ghost Amnesia.
    • Not only Dead All Along but also Dead to Begin With: Alva's afterlife was far from quiet rest.
