OC Overview | Chisel Hammer

🏷️Basics
Chisel Hammer was born into a loving family but left her tropical home to follow her passion and becoming a master blacksmith. After years of grueling training and honing her skills, she reached the peak of her career as she took the role of the royal blacksmith in Canterlot. A violent relationship left her paralyzed and deeply traumatized not soon after however, leading her to isolate and hide behind anger. Haunted by her past, she finds solace in her forge, her support dog Tofu, and her one friend, Securina.

🎭Character Values

Likes & Dislikes
Chisel values her emotional support dog, Tofu, and quietly cherishes her friendship with Securina, the only pony who stuck by her. She finds comfort in noise and structured routine but grows deeply uncomfortable in silence. Her default mode is dislike, critical of most if not everything. Though her hate and dislike often takes root of her anxiety, a need for control.

Strength & Weaknesses
Chisel is physically powerful and a master of her craft, with unmatched precision in her forge. Her discipline, passion, and reliability have earned her a reputation for excellence. However, she’s emotionally volatile, struggling with paranoia, past trauma, and a deep-rooted fear of being alone. Her abrasiveness masks deep insecurity, making trust and vulnerability difficult.

Personality & Value
Chisel is fiercely guarded and emotionally reactive, often lashing out when feeling embarrassed, judged, or rejected. Her social awkwardness and desperation for connection are buried under anger and sarcasm. She believes a creature’s worth lies in what they contribute to the world, and while this motivates her, it also leaves her feeling worthless during low points.

🔎Trivia

• Chisel has a liking for seafood! She can be pretty snobby about the quality.

• She used to be a fairly important side character in Parch’s original story!

• Her dog Tofu wears a tiny custom-forged collar she made herself.

• She hates silence and often leaves her forge doors open to hear castle noise.

• Her old name is a secret!!! Even her closest friend, Securina has no clue what it is.

• I like to think Chisel HATES magic, to the point of disgust!

• Chisel frequently writes letters to her family back in the region of Cervisea! (Lots of lies)

• I think Chisel is a little embarrassed of her heritage/ family and tries to keep it a secret. 

• SHE IS STRAIGHT? BUT I SAW ART OF- Every OC of mine have their canonize sexuality but as an artist I can just draw head canon art of them being the gayest gays to ever gay

📝Creators Notes. 
Chisel used to play a BIG role in Parch's original story. Though as Parch's story evolved, Chisel kinda lost her role in the story (For now). I still liked Pillow's influence on Chisel and decided that their specific arc remained separately on their own individual arcs :)

Chisel has since become an independent character, primarily used for art and roleplay. 🙂 I really love making her lash out and yell at others, thinking of creative insults for her to say is always hilarious!
