They are an extreme narcissist with delusions of grandeur. They are incredibly fond of themselves and see themselves as a hero. Nothing can dissuade them from this viewpoint and they believe everyone sees them the same way they see themselves. They have a dark side in which anyone who questions their heroism deserves their vengeance and retribution. They love adoration and praise and base everything they do on gaining the praise and adoration of others.
The unwitting team mom who doesn't want to be there but also knows the party of halpless morons she owes a debt to will get themselves killed in like a week if she's not around to tard-wrangle them.
Pic-related doesn't do her personality any justice, then again my characters never turn out how I imagine them in my head.
All the players are 6 intelligence 6 wisdom. In real life. Last time we played a game one of them thought it would be a good idea to shoot out the door of an airlock to suck like 3 mook trash enemies out into space... while not having any airtight gear or tethering keeping HIM in the room either...
I would trade 6/6s for 2/2 that has 2 CHA... But thinks he's a 20/20 INT/WIS.
We're about to kick him from the group because of how literally insufferably moronic he is.

While they were at court, they were of the lowest regard without being invisible like the servants. Now that they're out in the wider world, they're the only person bringing class and clever subtlety into the situation. These little people and their little problems are an amusing way to disappear from real trouble.
A good natured man from a film of holy warriors most recent to take up the families armor. He is kind polite pure of heart and dumb of ass, a bit naive but very strong and strongly principled ready to put his life on the line for others, also he has pompadour hair.
A genetically engineered cat-girl who fought for her and her planets freedom against a robotic scourge. She is now working for the Space Federation as a ship pilot. She is a regressive Luddite, her favourite colour is blue and she is probably a war criminal due to cannibalism and her treatment of fellow soldiers, but doesn't let that stop her from being a mother figure to the parties adopted NPCs.
Think Don Quixote, but if he idolized characters such as Guts from Berserk, or Goblin Slayer's goblin slayer. He's a dejected son of a noble who wants to become a great warrior, but has little actual experience. So he bluffs his way into fooling everyone (including his own party) that he's a edgelord with a tragic past when in actuality, he's always lived a life of extreme comfort.
It seems to me that a DQ-inspired character needs to at least half-believe their own nonsense- it's what sets the Don apart from the usual "braggart caught in their lie" morality play fodder.
A wizard who acts as the parties smart guy, he's a silly dork who has a bad habit of saying dumb shit under pressure like "If I was really the traiter I could've killed all of you if I really wanted!" Despite this he's reliable good natured adopts lost monsters and constructs as his kids (he's at four) and he lobes his Hat the symbol of his passing magic school. His official title is the elemental lord of the winds
>and he lobes his Hat the symbol of his passing magic school
I assume you were going for "he loves his hat" here, but now all I can think of is a wizard using his hat like a throwing weapon a la Oddjob or Kung Lao.
A widowed apothecary-turned-hunter trying to cure his vampirized daughter. Grim, humorless, and doesn't take chances; the type to hand a cursed lycanthrope poison to kill himself with. Too paranoid and traumatized to ignore things anymore after losing everything by freak chance.
Confident fencer who follows the goddess of art and beauty and thusly views his swordsmanship as an artform in itself. Has a seething, inexplicable hatred for wisps. Is also a really good liar
My last character was an even-keeled, mild-mannered country boy fron a backwater dried-up mining town. He generally tried to to find amicable solutions to problems, but was absolutely relentless once the guns came out. Religious, unashamed of it, but not pushy about it. Willing to lend a sympathetic ear. Willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. Willing to get skin in the game and risk his life if he thought it would make a difference. Inexplicably partial to trashy new age music.
An actual Chaotic Evil psychopathatic catfisher, but also a theatre kid by heart who is passionate
in abusing his disguises to frick with the rest of the party and major npcs in the interest of spawning more interpersonal drama and dramatic historical events. Hated or loved, he relishes tricking named character into having half a dozen different relationships just with him
Is also aggressively loyal to his wife, who is both more malicious and dangerous than him.

>Become a wizard they said. Go to magical school they said. Five years and a school lone I can't repay later I'm balls deep in some grimy dungeon fending off undead hordes for barely any pay off and what do I have to show for it? Nothing.

He's a drunk who once had the heart of a hero. He hates scumbags and bullies and is ashamed of himself both because of his pathetic state of being and because of his past failures. For this, he frequently places himself in needless danger in the hopes that if he can't be successful through skill, he can at least give up his life to do some good in the world. He fears responsibility because he's scared of fricking it up and thus will always defer important decisions or roles to others, but will offer his opinion (casually, so as not to be responsible if people go along with his ideas).
I like him a lot because I can get up to silly nonsense if the mood feels right but can also have serious moments thanks to him being a sadsack. It's pretty fun when he's the most obvious pick for a particular task and I have to RP the conflict between him wanting to do what he knows is the right thing and also desperately trying not to do anything of importance so as not to get anyone hurt.
And since he has a death wish, he always volunteers to be the hamster that experiments with the spooky glowing magic orb.
An altruist, a pragmatist and a dumbass. A devout follower of Lathander. Follows no rules when fighting evil - he will lie, cheat and kill to punish the wicked. Recently learned to really fricking hate dragons. Practically on a first name basis with death. Terrible with women. Convinced that the party's bardlock exists solely to torment him.
He's my first character and his terrible story is still continuing. I have no idea how he hasn't (properly) died yet, given everything he's been through.
Jovial, simple and rural Stirlander, constantly trying to find a way to make his father proud and make his own success, since his elder brother is heir apparent for the light-house in the family's possession, His ambition for status and succes is regularly at odds with his good intentions and his bleeding heart. Somehow became the de facto leader of the group and captain of the river barge Sam-Maria (named after a fallen companion and his love interest) do to actually being a decent guy that the rest of the party respects, although he still have to realize that maybe he don't need his fathers approval when he has the respect of his peers and friends. At first glance he seems simple and maybe even a bit dumb, but is actually somewhat smart and good at quick decision-making. He also inadvertently found out he's a wizard.

They look like they frick beastwomen and female monsters
You first.
They are an extreme narcissist with delusions of grandeur. They are incredibly fond of themselves and see themselves as a hero. Nothing can dissuade them from this viewpoint and they believe everyone sees them the same way they see themselves.

Nah, he's male
You fell for his trap, he just wanted to talk about his shitty OC

The character description and art in the OP both track.
That "character description" is filled with generalizations that could be applied to lots of art.

I don't currently have one.

He says exactly what any given person wants to hear and cares about his own reputation above all.

Seconding this
Thanks, anons. This is my first TTRPG character, so I'm proud of how he turned out. Hopefully, my next will continue the streak.
It seems to me that a DQ-inspired character needs to at least half-believe their own nonsense- it's what sets the Don apart from the usual "braggart caught in their lie" morality play fodder.

I was going for loves but he has weaponized it oddjob using some wind magic take the rim a saw blade, did so to save one of his adopted kids

What system?
Leovaunt's d20 Starcraft system. My character was a Terran deputy marshal on Chau Sara shortly before the Zerg overran it.
Nice!
It was fun. The system is very crunchy and power levels tend to spike pretty quickly, but we got a year of enjoyment from it.
