[center][fancypost=bgcolor;text-align:justify;width:450px;line-height:95%;][size=8]Connecting to the previous post, meanwhile, I decided to think of some designs of the characters who's inspired by the Seven Deadly Sins ( or I suppose, the seven Homunculus from Full Metal Alchemist, since there's few aspects I thought of are somewhat similar to theirs, apparently, when I read details about them after I was playing with the idea concepts of my own Seven Sins — even though I've actually never watched it before ), especially Lust and Greed ( or Envy?? I haven't decided yet, but the current set personality and motivations I came up with clashes in a tie with both of them ), because so far, those two got my attention the most on wanting to work on them first before the other Sins.
It's really interesting and pretty damn cool that the creator of the anime series came up with some ideas of the seven Homunculus is how I would view towards the Seven Deadly Sins, if they were to be based off of the real ones. Especially with the fact that the seven Homunculi were truly bitter and broken, as to why they were... who they were and committed the crime and sins. Also to see that they were "made," rather than to be "born," said Edward, that fact really got me as I like to believe that my Seven Deadly Sins were created, through force, to make a life balance between the vices and virtues, and if any of them gets killed without any given replacements of the new chosen one by the creator ( which I will eventually post details about it, just information of my Seven Deadly Sins in general ), there will be chaos across the world through societies and people, due to how one set of trait falls back from another and would create series of events based on the trait that's now more clear than the fallen one, and even only virtues in the world makes it a bad one, just as having vices only.
It's even more strange and scarier when I can see the creator of the Seven Deadly Sins being addressed as "Father," ( because he does create them ) while they're his "children," with the Sins considering and viewing each other as siblings, and apparently, the anime series had that idea too??.....
It's making me honestly anxious, over to an average point, because I seriously don't want people to think I'm copying off of an anime series, but just?? I swear, I never thought there would be something else happening out there that would hold the concept ideas and aspects similar to my own ideas and views. This reminds me a lot of how I view towards Death itself, and parts of my view are "taken," by a roleplayer on FeralFront whose one of their muses are based off of Death.... Plus, even, I would like to make dream/nightmare realms to exist in Eanmerthas, as considering I always had this idea playing in my head of Dark/Eidottwani being the king of the nightmare realm, until I discovered one of my wonderful friends also had the same idea as me and... it was a very awkward moment for me, and I kept my own idea of a dream/nightmare realm down, because... you know.
Don't even make me talk in details over about how much I also wanted to create a specie based off of a void itself, until I discovered a character on this site who is one... I really do want to make a character inspired by Death and the void itself, also making my dream/nightmare realms exist in the story, but my anxiety won't let me, because again, I don't want anyone to think I'm copying other people's ideas...
So... Yeah.....

Edit ( 1/09/17 ): Gross, I somewhat made that into a rant post in the end there, and I want to avoid that in a thread like this, but it's been bothering me a lot lately, now that I thought about it more after planning to design my own Seven Deadly Sins, and I want to think as long as the ideas are completely original and no one else other than the creator have ever thought of it score, it can't be really seen as me copying other people's work if there's already an actual inspiration base to it. Obviously, it would be copying if my ideas are exactly same in most areas to the others, if not all.
But if anyone asks me if my general work are inspired of what's already been done, more or less prominent, really, that I'm aware of, I wouldn't hesitate to say yes, because, well, an inspiration is what makes a person want to create by another's work and effort. Also applying if people asks if my characters are inspired by this said existing character or an actual real life person I know of, of course, because it's like I'm giving credits/shoutout to that person and/or their work, and it's a kind gesture to do that.
Again, I'm trying to avoid making posts like this when it's not relevant to the purposes of a thread like this, but I want people to know, with this post overall, that most of my works, recent and past, are inspired by many people, themselves, or their own works, otherwise I wouldn't be actually creating stuff now, even working on my own personal story, and instead, do... God knows what, considering writing and creating with words and imaginations has always been a part of who I am, and I'm never going to let it go of me, no matter how difficult it is to share them to the world's eyes without being overly anxious and paranoid over the possible resulted scenarios.
