Description Drawn by the magnificent

Karen lives in a world where imagination is strong enough to influence reality and, during the Disney Renaissance, enough people were focused on toons that they actually manifested into reality, ToonTowns popping up all over the world, already populated with bouncing, indestructible cartoon characters.

Karen's condition resulted when she accidentally ingested a few drops of Toon Ink (a heavily controlled substance that can be produced, with great effort, by toons) in her coffee which caused her Id to manifest itself as Kinka, a Kinkajou toon who is almost directly inverse to her human counterpart.  To trigger her transformation, Karen usually has to experience strong emotions which bring out the toon.  The two are directly linked, so anything that happens to one happens to the other.

Human:
Name: Karen Aloran
Age: 22
Height: 5'0"
Weight: 90 lbs
Hair color: Brown
Eye color:  Blue
Favorite color: Red
Favorite food: Chicken Dumplings with soy sauce
Profession: Bookseller who aspires to work in human resources
Skills: Karen is fastidious, neat and intelligent, very quick thinking and skilled with words.  She's a very quick typist and good with a pen.
History: Karen was born in Maine, raised there and developed into a very shy, introverted girl.  She went to school in Ohio, at a school adjacent to a ToonTown, where she developed an aversion to them, finding them to be irresponsible, overly noisy and, in some cases, more than a little psychopathic.  After she graduated with a business degree, she got a job at a local bookstore, she had her fateful incident with her morning coffee.  Now she struggles to deal with Kinka, slowly coming to terms with the toon living inside her head.  Though she'll never admit it, she secretly enjoys her time as Kinka, enjoying the freedom from her insecurities and uncertainties.  She's also a big fan of the superhero genre, something that she and Kinka share.

Toon:
Name: Kinka
Species: Kinkajou
Age: 22
Height: 6' 2"
Weight: A toon lady never tells~
Hair Color: Red
Eye color: Blue
Fur: White
Favorite color: Gold
Favorite food: cheese curds, the greasier the better
Skills: Kinka is well versed in her toon abilities, having mastered the limited shapeshifting available to them, as well as hammer space and sound effects.  As a toon, she's practically indestructible, although she shares their vulnerability to the turpentine-acetone-benzene combination known as Dip.  She's irrepressibly optimistic and cheerful and shares her counterpart's book smarts, although she likes to play the ditzy cheerleader most of the time.  She's also an incredibly talented painter.
History: Kinka is very happy that she exists, although a little frustrated as to where she now exists.  Kinka firmly believes that Karen is not grasping her full potential and that her goals are boring and unambitious.  She dreams of a sexy Karen who embraces her deep seated toon nature, partying and playing all night long, roaming the country with a pack of other free spirited nomads, making her money through art and sex.  As such, she constantly pushes her counterpart in that direction, although she's started to accept that she's not being fair to Karen with this behavior.

I love it!
You and me have a very similar outlook on how toons work.
Clear up one thing: does Karen turn into Kinka? Or are they two different  people?

Do you mean physically or mentally? 

Physically, Karen does turn into Kinka and you'll see that at work when Bucket finishes the sequence. 

Mentally, things are a bit muddier.  See, they are fundamentally different people, with Kinka being an outgoing partygirl artiste and Karen being a shy, introverted bookworm with few to no ambitions, but their influences bleed over into each other.  it's kind of a two interconnected minds.  So they swap out depending on whose body it is, but still influence each other.

And I'm glad you love it!  I'm not going to lie, this was 100% inspired by your and Bucket's art, particularly your animations.  I adored the movements in the toon transformations, which motivated me to create a toon character.  And when I create a character, I go all out, so here we are.

Hmm, interesting concept! I don't see a lot of toontown stuff around my corner of the internet, oddly enough.

That's a shame!  I really like toon TFs and ToonTowns are a really fun concept to play around with.

Indeed! Stuff like limited shapeshifting and near invunerability sound like neat character aspects.

Yeah, the shapeshifting is mostly limited to physical features like figure size and shape, hair shape and color, y'know, toony stuff.  Circumstantially uncontrollable.  And yeah, her only weakness is Dip.  Nasty stuff.

Ah. I was imagining something a bit sillier, like turning your hand into an anvil before punching someone. Or heels into springs.... I guess I'm stuck thinking about this from a combat/adventure mindset. Oof.

Ah, you're thinking of Judge Doom!  Yes, some toons can do that, and Kinka can to a certain extent, but she relies more on hammerspace for her weaponry, as well as her well trained body.  Although she can curl her tail up into a spring and bounce around on it.  I think that Karen/Kinka could be really really fun in an action/adventure setting.

TagTamerAJ In reply to panahinuva [2014-09-08 05:54:19 +0000 UTC]

Oh right, Doom did do that.... guess that's why I came up with those two examples!

And nice to see hammerspace being mentioned. That's pretty much a hallmark of all classic toons.

I love hammerspace as a concept.  Hell, I had a supervillain who was basically built around hammerspace. 

Yep, Doom did both those things, the anvil and the springheels.
