Summary


Connoisseur of rocks and father of succulents, Ophiuchus is a rather busy bunny. A geologist and a rather prestigious space university graduate, he is tasked with researching and collecting samples of rocks and minerals all around the galaxy from moons marked for lunaridae inhabitation. He can often be found up late at night on the space freighter he is stationed on, typing up research papers and running tests on suspiciously glowing rocks to make sure he didn't drag anything radioactive onboard. He plays the role of a vital cog in the moon rabbit machine, as his line of work is one that leads to the further terraforming and exploration of the cosmos.

Aside from his obsession with rocks, Ophi enjoys taking care of his space succulents and pet snake and spiders while hotboxing his room with incense. He likes to collect things, and while rocks and crystals are his main target, he has a decent collection of other things too. Ask him about his tarot cards, he'd love to talk about them. He works with his roommate and bodyguard Eclipse, and the two often get sucked into hijinks often started by Ophiuchus trying to get his hands on some cool looking crystal or field expeditions to suspect planets by the Lunar Commission.

Personality


Opiuchus isn't really one for socializing or conversation. He is often absorbed in his own work and studies and doesn't care much for smalltalk. He is academic, and does like to discuss his interests in geology and astrology if someone has the time. He isn't shy, but he prefers to be left alone most of the time. He's sarcastic and has a bit of an ego, considering himself above those who don't have as much education as he does. A bit of an ass, really. He has a general formal air about him, which is probably just his superiority complex. If you can get past his cold exterior, he isn't a bad guy. He cares for his friends and for others, he just has a hard time showing it. He's not really a fan of adventure and getting his hands particularly dirty, though his line of work often sees him crawling around in the mud anyways to get good samples of the moon's rocks and soil to send back to the commission and for him to pick apart himself. He is also rather stubborn, and when he wants something, he rarely takes any shortcuts to get it.

Design notes


  • His cresent moon halo is always on his right side.
  • Several parts of him glow in the dark:
    • Eyes
    • Colored eye markings
    • Colored strands of hair
    • Halo
    • Constellation mark
    • Crescent marking on right leg
  • His eyes and halo always glow with the same intensity. Everything else acts much like glow in the dark paint--their intensity depends on how much light they've absorbed!

  • He has top surgery scars. These are not optional.
