Description
Here she is! the volcanic ghost girl herself, Oyayi! Like Kasoy, she's one of my earliest sonic ocs. Her design's gone through a lot of minor changes over a while, since I couldn't decide between giving her lots of details and making her less tedious to draw XD
Oyayi's story has been passed down through the generations among the Laat islanders. Everyone is afraid of her, even in the present! I had to leave out a lot of backstory details in her sheet; she's not just furious because of her unjust punishments + execution, but also because her own sister betrayed her and was one of the masterminds behind her being framed.
While sealed away, Oyayi's initial wave of rage subsided and she began to reflect on what she'd done. Her attempt at revenge came at the cost of innocent lives, which she deeply regrets. After the seal broke, she went to see what became of Laat in the present. Oyayi still wanted her revenge, but all the people she hated were already dead, and she knew taking out her rage on their descendants would only be repeating her mistakes. Unable to enact "justice" and unable to move on to the afterlife, she resigned herself to being sealed away once more.
...but then, a young Mani decides to try cheering her up. He becomes friends with her. This makes Oyayi decide to become the guardian of Laat; to protect her home, and her new friend(s). After Kasoy is born, Mani also excitedly introduces him to Oyayi.
weW that's alot! and I still haven't given all the details regarding her powers + backstory lol
