I had turian and salarian Spectres, and an asari C-Sec detective for 'Mass Effect'. Rarely ever use or draw them anymore.

I had created a bunch of "fan Lanterns" for Green Lantern -various members of the Emotional Spectrum, including a male Star Sapphire for some ungodly reason-, but I've pretty much "killed" them off for good by filing off the serial numbers completely, and reusing them for my non-fandom/original fiction projects.

And tbh, I'm pretty much over creating fan characters. Half because it gets to a point where I realize that they'd be better served without the "fandom glass ceiling", and half because I've had people attempt to co-opt them on various occasions (i.e. I had an F-Zero fan character that a former friend tried to co-opt for her In Name Only fan fiction, so I discreetly filed off the fandom serial numbers and they backed off a short while later. Then I had an ex-friend in the Green Lantern fandom constantly guilt trip me about not drawing/using my FCs enough, among other things). It just wasn't worth it anymore. Plus, I've really begun to find an incredible (if selfish) satisfaction in creating stuff from scratch to play around with in my own "sandbox", so to speak, so I've moved on to creating non-fandom OCs now*.

* The only exception I've made is my toons in TOR, because I don't RP them with people and since it's an MMO, that sort of thing is par for the course, lmao. So I can kinda just do my own shit in the Star Wars sandbox and nobody ever bats an eyelash at me.

I usually hit a point where I decide I'm better off developing it in my own world instead of playing in Marvel's or Bioware's.
