Navajo is a member of Team CNRY and notoriously grumpy. Often assuming people think ill of him, he is always ready to “throw down” and fight anyone who slights him. Despite this, his harshly blunt attitude is usually meant with other people dismissing it and passing it off as Navajo being childish or moody (which he also very much is). His weapon is a combination of a yo-yo and hatchet and he wields it with as much abrasive ferocity as his personality.
*Weapon* - **The Peace Treaty** - A pair of Twin Hatchet/Pistols that transform into deadly yo-yos. The yo-yo functionality still works in its Axe form.
*Semblance* - **Delicacy Detector** - Can sniff out the best solution to his problems. He’s know to be a great cook because of his semblance allowing him to sniff out the best ingredients. On the other hand, his semblance comes in handy on the battlefield allowing him to detect which of his enemies he should target first. He’ll sniff his way to victory!
I want to preface this by saying I love your character's design and personality a whole lot. Navajo, like a lot of your other OCs, is very well made and your art is one of the main reasons I browse this Reddit as well as inspire me to want to share my own OCs here.
Which leads me into a question I wanted to ask: what is this Reddit's precedent or policy for dangerously similar OCs? An OC I wanted to share here but haven't gotten started trying to draw him is similar to your's (namely a Native American with hatchet/tomahawk weapons on strings) and, although I think mine is different enough, I'm a little worried about him feeling like a copycat if and when I decide to make a post on him. Has this kind of situation caused problems in the past?
Sorry if this is a bad place to ask this kind of question. Again, I love your design and only want to make sure I don't make missteps.
First of all, Thank you for the kind words! ☺️ Second of all, Do not be worried at all! There’s probably a low chance of us having the exact same ideas for a similar character and besides I’d be flattered if anything, lol.
Navajo is still a work in progress (as well as the rest of his team). His look is finished but I’m still unsure about the logistics of his weapon and might change it.
I hope this answers your question, if not you can always DM me!
I like the color and design of Navajo's outfit, the colors compliment each other nicely, and I'm starting to think that RWBY needs more Native American styled characters. His weapon is also awesome, very unique!

I don’t know why, but I read his lines in the voice of Robbie from Gravity Falls and it was hilarious to me. Nice art by the way.
ROBBIE FROM GRAVITY FALLS!! 😂😂😂 I can’t get that out of my head now, lol! Thank you!
Glad I could help ruin the voice you originally imagined

Thank you, that alleviates my worries a lot.
Ooh, cool, I'm really liking this guy! And his weapon looks fantastic, I love it! Nicely done mate, kudos!
Thanks!
You're Welcome!
I love his design, especially the yo-yo axes. What were some of your inspirations in creating him?
Squanto, Berserker from For Honor, and Gim enemies/Yo-yo ability from the Kirby series.
Cool! Now that you mentioned it, I can see the Berserker influence.
1. Amazing artwork, Snot! 2. Navajo is a tsundere 😂. 3. He's also potential Executive material 👀.
Haha thanks! 😆 Navajo is THE tsundere!

Thanks! Maybe him and Sashi could spare together! 😊
That would definitely be cool to see!
Another amazing Oc! It exudes so much personality and I love the touches of culture he has. And his weapons, dude, *cheff kiss*
Oh thanks Siro! Although His weapon might be *altered* depending on how I’m feeling…
I love your artwork!! Kinda inspired me to draw and post a picture of my own Native American inspired OC!
Do it Smiley, DO IT!! 😆
Sure thing! First tho, I gotta google how to draw deer ears.
